Episode 27: The Volcanic Venture
On the island of Murasia, the Freedom Fighters, two Echidnas, G.U.N officers, and Team Dark are on the island. As of now, some of them are sitting on the sand relaxing. Tails, Rotor, and Manic are working on the X Tornado.
Eve smiles, "We're glad that you all are alright."
"So are we.I thought we never get out of that ship, especially Eggman," Topaz says.
Cosmo looks around and asks, "Where's Leon and Molly?"
"Knowing those two love birds, they're probably taking a walk on the beach," Rouge says.
At a different part of the beach, Leon and Molly are looking at the ocean blue. They can't help but smile to see the beauty of this world. As the two walk on the beach, Leon stubs his foot on something. Leon and Molly look down to see something on the ground.
"What's this?" Molly asks.
"I'm not sure," Leon says, taking a strange box from the ground.
Meanwhile, Tails, Sonic, Eve, Rouge, Shadow, Galaxina, Cosmo, and Knuckles are talking about what they need to do.
"But I know I could fly the X-Tornado down into the crater," Tails says.
"It's too dangerous!" Cosmo says, concern.
"It's the only way to catch up with Eggman. I'm in," Sonic says.
"Me too," Eve says.
Knuckles turns to Rouge, "Rouge, what about you? You willing to come along?"
"Doesn't sound like I have a choice. If I stay behind, there won't be anybody left on the team to look after you," Rouge remarks.
"Ha. Very funny," Knuckles replies, feeling offended.
"What about you Shadow?" Eve asks.
"Of course I am," Shadow answers.
Meanwhile, Sally, Dr. Cadberry, and Nicole are working on a machine. Nic and Fiona are busy polishing their gear. Just then, Leon and Molly hurry through the branches.
"We have found something," Leon says.
Dr. Cadberry walks over to see Leon holding a small box.
Leon passes the box to Dr. Cadberry, "Here, doctor."
Dr. Cadberry takes the box and observes it.
"Incredible! This box seems to be made of ermurasium," Dr. Cadberry says, amazed.
Nic asks, "What's ermurasium?"
"It was an unusual metal that was used by the Murasians," Dr. Cadberry answers.
He then opens the box to see a white diamond inside. Nic and Fiona are amazed to see the gem, especially Rouge.
Rouge has sparkles in her eyes and says, "Hel-lo…"
"According to my research, Murasian cities were filled with precious gemstones even larger than this one," Dr. Cadberry says,
He holds out the gem, and says, "Amazing…"
"I never knew archaeology could be so fascinating," Rouge says, still bedazzled by the gem.
Fiona and Nic glare at Rouge, given their history.
Eve sighs, "Oh brother."
Meanwhile, Dr. Eggman along with his henchmen are riding on the Eggmobile down the volcano.
"Doctor, we will hit the lava soon," Decoe says.
Eggman cackle, "Heheheh... I have a plan; don't worry."
Decoe rolls his eyes, "If it is anything like his past plans, we are going to get burned."
Bokkun pops up and asks, "Are you two doubting Dr. Eggman?"
Then shouts as he waves his arms around, "Doctor! Doctor! They're dissing you!"
Both of the robots narrow their eyes with annoyed looks
Decoe says, "Know what I like about him?"
"Yes. Nothing," Bocoe comments.
Bokkun scowl in anger and shouts, "Well I don't like you two either!"
Eggman taps a few buttons, and says, "I've located a tunnel that'll take us further underground."
Just then, the tread extends from the Egg Mobile and it lands on the ground. After that, the Egg Mobile rolls on the ground.
Back on the beach, Sonic, Eve, Tails, Sally, Nic, Fiona, Knuckles, Julie-Su, and Team Dark are on the X Tornado.
"Let's go check out that volcano," Tails says.
The X-Cyclone starts the engine and flies to the volcano. The ship continues to fly down to the volcano until it's safely on the ground. Soon enough, the group finds a cave that has a tunnel, but it's blocked.
"They've blocked up the tunnel after they drove through. You see?" Rouge says.
They look down to see the tracks on the ground.
"Eggman definitely went this way," Shadow says.
Sonic says, excited, "Hmph. That won't stop me!"
Sonic then speeds over and begins to spin dash a tunnel. However, the tunnel begins to shake as the dirt and rocks from above begin to fall, causing the others to worry
Knuckles shouts, "If you don't stop that digging, you're gonna bury us here!"
Sonic stops and turns to the others, "Heheh, sorry."
Rouge walks to the tunnel Sonic digs, and says, "There's another tunnel here, but it's pretty narrow."
"Let's see where it goes," Sonic says.
Rouge begins to go in and Sonic follows. Shadow, Eve, Knuckles, and Julie-Su begin to follow. Sally and the others remain behind
Sally asks, "What about us?"
"We can look around in the X-Tornado," Tails says.
The girls nod their heads.
Omega says, "Some have all the luck."
"Let's just head to the X-Tornado and explore," Nic says.
The group of Mobians continue to walk through the tunnel. As they walk deep in the tunnel, the area grows dark so that only their eyes can be seen. Rouge suddenly feels something hitting her head.
Rouge turns to the others "Careful! You both have big heads. Good thing they're hard."
Knuckles grunts with an annoyed look.
They soon come across a large tunnel with glowing moss around the wall.
"It's some kind of fluorescent moss," Knuckles says.
"How'd you know that?" Julie-Su asks.
"Easy. When you're a treasure hunter like me, you've been everywhere, you've seen all kinds of-" Knuckles answers, with pride.
Soon Rouge says, "Come on, Sonic."
Knuckles turns to see Sonic and Rouge leaving along with everyone else, except for Julie-Su who is interested in the moss.
Knuckles angrily says, "I see! It's four against one now!"
Knuckles then chases after the others. Julie-Su hurries after them.
Sometime later, The gang begins to climb down the tunnel.
"These rocks are really slippery. Watch your step," Knuckles says.
Suddenly, Rouge slips and begins to fall on each of the Mobians and they call fold to the bottom of the tunnel.
"Oopsie," Rouge says.
Soon, Rouge is sitting on Sonic's head, and everyone is stacked on top of each other.
"You clumsy oaf," Julie-Su angrily says.
"I'm always the fall guy," Knuckles says, annoyed.
Soon, the gang walks through a plateau. Then they walk over a stone bridge over molten lava. Soon, they come across a lake that has a river that goes underground.
Sonic wary says, "It's... so wet!"
Eve pats Sonic's should to calm him down.
Knuckles emerges from the water, "It's too deep to wade across. We'll have to swim."
"But... That'd spoil my makeup," Rouge denies.
"It's just water," Shadow says.
"I don't mind for a little swim," Eve says.
"Glad my cybergentic are waterproof," Julie-Su says.
Sonic then tries to come up with an excuse, "Maybe I should go and keep Tails and the others company."
Before Sonic can leave, Knuckles grabs Sonic, "Hey, not so fast! The bat can rot in this cave for all I care, but you're coming with me!"
Knuckles then begins to drag Sonic unto the water. Eve and the others begin to follow them under the water.
Rouge angrily says, "Ya can't get rid of me that easy!"
With that, Rouge dives into the water to follow the others. The group walks under the water where the ceiling of the cave is lower. Sometime later, Sonic is coughing and hacking as he lays himself on the ground. Eve sits on her knees and rubs Sonic's head.
"What a nightmare," Sonic says, tired.
"It's okay Sonic. We're back on dry land," Eve says.
Soon, Rouge hears something and says, "I hear a waterfall."
Sonic immediately jumps on his feet and runs off, "It might be a way out!"
Soon enough, they reach a waterfall that goes down. When they reach the end, they look down to see the waterfall going down, deeper down.
"Looks like a dead end," Shadow says.
"And a big drop," Julie-Su adds.
Suddenly, Rouge flies up.
Knuckles calls out, "Hey, wait!"
Rouge then drops a vine and lands on Knuckles head, causing him to fall on the ground.
"Thanks, Rouge!" Sonic says, and begins to climb up the vine.
Knuckles angrily says, "I'll get that bat…"
The group begins to climb up the vine to the top of the cavern. Knuckles is the last to climb up and reach the ground with the others.
Rouge points out, "Our exit's blocked off."
"No sweat. I'll just dig us out," Knuckles says, and holds out his shovel claws.
Knuckles then burrows his way to make an exit while the others shield their eyes from the dirt. Having dig far enough, a light begins to pour through the cracks. Eve and Sonic smile and spin dash out of the tunnel and land on the ground.
Sonic: says, shocked, "No way!"
What they see is a large city that is surrounded by the trees and it looks like the sky, but is underground.
"Wow! This place reminds me of Lower Mobius," Eve says, amazed.
"I know, but we found the lost city," Sonic says.
Just then, the X Tornado flies by and the others are amazed by what they're seeing.
The gang says amazed, "Murasia!"
Tails then projects a camera from under the nose of the X-Tornado. It broadcast it back to the others back on the beach. They all see the underground city of Murasia.
"The Murasians built an underground kingdom," Dr. Cadberry says.
"But how?" Molly asks.
"As their continent sank, they must have fled to this huge cave and used the power of ermurasium to make an artificial sun to provide heat and light. Once the Murasians moved underground, some legends say they encountered terrible creatures who destroyed their kingdom and drove all the survivors away. I always thought the stories of underground kingdoms and monsters were myths, but it seems there was some truth to them after all," Dr. Cadberry says.
Meanwhile in Murasia, everyone is on the X-Tornado as they explore the city.
"I don't believe those monster stories," Rouge says.
"I'd love to meet monsters down here. I could challenge 'em to a fight! I'd destroy 'em all!" Knuckles says, eagerly holding his fist.
Rouge comments, "You know, you're kinda cute when you talk about how tough you are."
Knuckles turns to Rouge and angrily says, "You know I can't stand you?"
"I'm not surprised. There's a very thin line between hate and love," Rouge says.
Knuckles turns his head away from Rouge, "Well, you make it thicker!"
"Could you two take it easy, please? I've got enough turbulence up here," Tails weary says.
Hearing the conversation cause the others to feel weary.
Topaz says, "Those two are like oil and vinegar."
Molly and Leon look at each other and show smiles on their faces. Back on the X-Tornado, Julie-Su glares at Rouge the way she is talking to Knuckles. It makes her feel… bitter.
Meanwhile, Dr. Eggman is sitting in his tent and typing on his computer.
Just then, Bokkun comes up bagging a plate with a fork, "Hey, I need to put something yummy in my tummy!
"Now that you mention it, I'm hungry too," Dr. Eggman says.
Then turns his head, "Decoe, Bocoe, go grab us some grub on the double."
Decoe and Bocoe comes by the tent entry
Decoe worriedly asks, "But what if we get lost, Doctor?"
"Ha! I'm not that lucky!" Dr. Eggman comments.
Bocoe points his finger and asks, "Why don't you send Bokkun?"
"There might be wild animals around here. I don't wanna be a snack for a snake!" Bokkun answers, holding the plate and fork.
"Bokkun's right. You two are indigestible," Eggman says, standing up.
Eggman then sits down and waves his hand. Decoe and Bocoe growls per say and leaves to carry out Eggman's work.
At a Murasian building that looks like a white palace, Sonic, Eve, and the gang are looking at the palace while Sally sees Tails working on something.
"Cross your fingers," Tails says.
He then presses the button on a small device, and it begins to light up. Back at the campsite, Rotor and Dr. Cadberry are looking at the device as it prints out a small line of paper.
The seismograph seems to be working fine," Rotor says
Dr. Cadberry says, "The seismic readings will give us an idea how much internal pressure is building up inside the volcano."
Somewhere in the jungle of the island, Decoe and Bocoe are forging for food in the bushes.
"This is hopeless," Decoe says.
"Look! I found something!" Bocoe says as he brings out a large orange slug.
Decoe freaks out, "Is it edible?!"
"It probably tastes like chicken," Bocoe says with glee.
I do not want to find out," Decoe says.
Then Bocoe tosses the slug away.
Decoe notices something and points out, "There! That looks more appetizing!"
What they see is what looks like a giant red cherry. They both approach the strangely large fruit.
"I have never seen such a huge cherry," Bocoe says.
Then Decoe says, "Our search has been very fruitful."
Decoe then climbs on Bocoe's shoulder to reach the cherry. Bocoe grabs on to Decoe's ankle for support. Decoe then grabs the cherry and is ready to pick. However, Decoe looks carefully to see a large moth with big blue eyes. It turns out the cherry is actually part of it's antenna. The two robots scream and panic as they run away, but the moth begins to chase after them.
Back at the Murasian Palace, the group look at the palace as they soon hear screaming.
"What's that?" Julie-Su asks.
"It sounded like someone screaming," Fiona says.
Everyone turns their heads to see Bocoe and Decoe running out of the bushes.
"Eggman's robots!" Sonic says.
"What's up with them?" Eve asks.
Just then, the giant moth monster comes out causing everyone, but Shadow to scream in shock. They all stay in place to see the moth continuing to chase Decoe and Bocoe around them.
"Maybe we should do something to help them!" Sally says.
"What can we do to stop that?" Fiona asks.
Deoce and bocoe continue to run away in fright.
Decoe screams, "This monster is bugging me out!"
"Right now I would give anything for a giant mothball!" Bocoe panics.
"Maybe I could distract that thing," Sally says, and picks up a stone.
Sally then throws the rock at the Moth's eye. That catches its attention. Sally soon runs away after the robots. Soon the moth monster begins to chase her with the robots. The moth spreads some kind of yellow dust. Bocoe and Decoe duck and pushes Sally down to save her. Soon, they all fall down a hole and slide down the grass.
Back on above, everyone looks around to see Sally and the robots are gone.
"Hey Sal!" Sonic calls out.
He then looks around as he says to himself, "Where could she be?"
Meanwhile, Sally, Bocoe, and Decoe continue to slide down the hole really fast. Finally, they pop out land on the grass next to Dr. Eggman.
Eggman turns around and demands, "What did you bring that bratty princess here for?
They all stand up.
"She risked his life to save us from a giant bug," Decoe says.
"Really? Well, she isn't gonna save you from me when I tear out your power supply!" Eggman angrily says.
Suddenly, an earthquake begins to take place causing Decoe and Bocoe to scream and panic as they run around Sally.
Decoe screams, "The gate is going to collapse!"
Back at the beach, everyone feels the earth of the island moving rapidly, and then stops.
Amy says in concern, "I hope everything's alright in the cave."
At the same time the seismograph records the earthquake
Amy turns to Dr. Cadberry, "Are Sonic and the others gonna be okay?"
"That was just a tremor, so they should all be fine. But the pressure inside the volcano is building. Your friends are going to be in real danger if they stay down there much longer," Dr. Cadberry says.
"How bad are things going to get, Doctor?" Commander Tower asks.
Dr. Cadberry points to the machine, and says, "The data suggests the volcano is about to erupt."
Soon the others become surprised to hear the result
Meanwhile, Tails sees Dr. Cadberry on the screen and listen to what he says.
Dr. Cadberry says, "If you're still down there when the volcano blows, you'll be in great danger. Forget about Eggman. Just pack up your gear and head for the surface right away!
"Okay Doc," Tails says.
Knuckles asks, "What do we do?"
"We don't have any time to lose. We gotta find Sally fast!" Sonic says.
Then Sonic runs off as Knuckles calls out, "We should come up with a plan first!"
"The best thing for me to do is wing it," Rouge says, and flies off.
Knuckles calls out, "Where do you think you're goin'?"
"I'll search for Chris from the sky. You and Tails can set up the equipment and look for that hot spot. Make sure you find it before Eggman blows it up," Rouge says.
"Alright, but be careful, Rouge. Good luck," Knuckles says.
"I'll see you soon, handsome," Rouge says. She then winks and flies off.
Eve turns to Knuckles, "Nic, Shadow, and I will go on ahead. Fiona, help Tails, Omega, and Knuckles pack the supplies.
"Right," Fiona and Nic reply.
Eve then speeds off while Nic heads off on foot. Knuckles, Fiona, and Tails begin to work on packing the supplies.
Meanwhile, Sally has been tied up and is being held prisoner. Decoe and Bocoe stand next to her.
Eggman walks over to them, and says to Sally, "For such a small fry, you certainly are a big sap. You risked your neck to save these clowns and now you're my prisoner! How hilariously humiliating!"
Then Eggman begins to laugh.
Sally sternly says, "I'm glad I tried to help them."
Suddenly the island begins to shake again. In the cavern, debris begins to fall from the ceiling. Just then, strange glowing purple eyes appear in the darkness.
Dr. Eggman looks at the computer, "My analysis is finally finished, and it shows the hot spot is only a few hundred yards away."
Sally turns to see Decoe and Bocoe hiding under the Egg Mobile, until Eggman angrily kicks them out of the way.
"Quit loafing and let's get moving!" Eggman demands.
Sally sternly says, "You know. You could try to be nicer to your robots."
"You don't give the orders princess," Eggman says.
Meanwhile, Knuckles watches Tails look over his device as Fiona begins to pack some of the material. Sonic runs through the woods to find Sally. Eve runs around some ancient ruins with Nic to see if Sally is around. Shadow runs around as he follows Rouge who flies in the air as she uses her echolocation to find Chris or anything else. She flies over to see some ancient ruins to notice something shining. Curious, Rouge flies down to see what is shining on the ground.
She notices something that causes her to say, "Oh my…"
What she sees is a pile of shimmering gems in different colors and shapes. Rouge approaches the gem pile astonished to see if glow.
At the Murasian palace, Dr. Eggman lands the Eggmobile on the ground, and Sally is still tied up as his prisoner. Eggman walks out holding the computer as Decoe and Bocoe escort Sally as Bocoe holds a strange device.
Eggman asks, "Do you have the detonator?"
"Yes," Bocoe says.
Eggman turns to Sally, "Watch closely, kid. You'll see why I'm called a master of mayhem! By setting off a blast in this spot, I'll cause a chain reaction! This whole planet's gonna blow its top! Every volcano in the world will erupt, leading to worldwide chaos! On top of the ashes of the old world, I can build my new Eggman Empire!" Then maniacally laughs.
"Sonic and Eve will stop you in time," Sally says.
"They'd better hurry, 'cause I'm gonna hit the detonator switch right now!" Eggman says.
"Here," Bocoe says, approaching the Doctor and giving him the detonator.
Sally shouts, "You can't set that off!
"Just watch me!" Eggman angrily says.
Then tosses her to the ground.
"Sorry about that, Princess Sally," Bocoe says.
Then Decoe comments, "Dr. Eggman, that was mean!"
"That klutzy princess gave himself the slip," Eggman says, dismissing the treatment he gives to Sally.
In the volcano, Bokkun is sitting on a statue of a giant dinosaur.
"This dinosaur rocks!" Bokkun comments.
Suddenly, the ground begins to shake and the statue begins to tilk
Bokkun panics, "Not another quake!"
Suddenly, Bokkun hears a strange growling sound. And the ground begins to shake again. This time causes the statue to shatter and Bokkun to fall to the ground. Just then, a giant drill monster begins to rise from the ground in gold, dark blue, and gray metal with red color eyes.
Rouge holds one of the gems until she hears a loud Scream. In the jungle, Bokkun is running for his life. Bokkun runs back to Eggman and the robots along with sally. The two robots help Sally up and untie her. Bokkun waves his arms and panics so that they can't understand what he's saying. Eggman places his finger on his head with a confused look. Suddenly, something overshadowed them. Everyone turns their heads to see the giant machine behind them. Everyone begins to scream and panic.
Sally screams, "HEEEEELLLLPPPPP!"
Hearing the scream, Sonic super speed to Sally's rescue. Sally fear of the robot attacking, until Rouge flies down and scoops her up.
"Need a lift?" Rouge asks.
"Thanks, Rouge," Chris says.
The Robot begins to destroy the wall as Bokkun and Eggman runs away. They soon notice that the detonator is at 10:30 and begins to count down.
"The detonator!" Bocoe panics.
Decoe screams, "Oh no!"
The two robots flee from the robot as it destroys the Murasin palace.
Decoe panics, "Hurry! We must rush to avoid the crush!"
Out of harm's way, Rouge and Sally watch as Eggman flies away on his Eggmobile. When the robots arrive, they can see Eggman is gone.
"He is gone! We are stranded!" Decoe panics.
Just then, the volcano begins to erupt and the robot is on a rampage.
"The heat's on now," Rouge says.
"What do you mean?" Sally asks.
"This whole cave's gonna fill up with lava," Rouge answers.
Bocoe jumps into Decoe's arms in fright. The rock begins to fly out of the volcano as the earth begins to split, and the robot begins to move forward.
"Let's get outta here," Rouge says.
"It is no use. A bomb is gonna cause all the volcanoes on the planet to erupt!" Bocoe says.
Knowing the disaster, Sally runs to the Murasian palace to stop the bomb.
Deoce calls out, "Hey! Wait!
Bocoe calls out, "Where are you going?"
Sally runs to run to the palace and the Monster drilling robot sees her. Sally trips and almost hurts herself. The robot attempts to stomp her, but Rouge uses her screw kick at the robot's eye. Rogue becomes surprised to see her kick hasn't done anything to it, and it hits her to the ground. Then it begins to follow Sally.
Sally arrives at the ruins to see the detonator has 5:08 minutes left, and it's still counting down. Sally towards the robot and calls out.
"Come on! I got something for ya!" Sally calls out.
Deoce and Bocoe catch up with her to see what Sally is planning.
"Wait, princess!" Bocoe calls out.
"We will help you!" Decoe says.
Sally turns to the robot, "But what can you do?"
"Remember… Outside, we look like servants," Bocoe
"But inside, we are built for battle. All we do is put our heads together…" Decoe says.
With that, they both turn their heads to each other.
Then Bocoe says, "...and the results are electrifying!"
"What? What are you talking about?" Sally asks.
Soon, Decoe and Bocoe begin to combine themselves together to form a giant robot.
"First we link up," Bocoe says.
Then Decoe says, "Then our internal circuitry undergoes a total integration."
Bocoe adds, "Then our transformation software is activated."
"Which kicks us into Power Armor Mode!" Decoe adds.
Then Bocoe says, "Which creates a mighty mechanical giant!"
"A super colossal combat droid!" Decoe adds.
Soon, they both are a giant robot. Decoe the legs and Bocoe the head. More like in their dreams.
"Well, now's the time to do it," Sally says.
"Here we go! Bocoe Decoe Battle Mode!" Decoe and Bocoe say, linking their arms together.
So far, nothing has happened.
"Huh?" The robots reply.
"We must have been in dream mode," Decoe panics.
Sally then notices the robot raises its drill, and screams, "Look out!
The next moment, the Drill monster swings its tail and sends the robot flying in pieces.
"Sorry!" Bocoe screams.
Then Decoe screams, "It appears our rescue plan has fallen apart!"
Sally says in concern, "Decoe! Bocoe!"
Suddenly, something fires at the drill robot. It's the X Tornado with Sonic, Eve, Knuckles, Nic, Fiona, and Omega on it.
Tails notices, "There's Sally!"
Sally waves her hands out, "Hi, guys!'
Sonic, Eve, Shadow, and Knuckles hope off the X-Tornado to attack the robot. Tails fire the blasters from his X-Tornado to the robot. Omega also fires his firearms at it as well. Knuckles grabs it by the tail, and swings it away. The robot falls to the ground, but stands up again. Then it breathes fire. Knuckles and Shadow dodge the attack. Sonic and Eve then spin dash the robot.
Shadow helps Rouge up as he asks, "Rouge, are you OK?"
The X-Tornado then fire two Power Rings. Sonic and Eve both are able to catch one. Then the two hedgehogs spin dash the robot. However, the robot knocks them away, and the two hedgehogs land on their feet close to Sally.
"It's pretty tough," Sonic says.
Just then, the robot breathes fire. Sonic grabs Sally as he and Eve hop away. Then join the others.
"There must be a way to stop it," Knuckles says.
"You're right, but I don't know what it is," Sonic says.
"That thing is made of really strong metal," Eve says.
Sally then presents the bomb to Sonic, "Hey, Sonic. This might help."
Sonic takes the bomb to see it counting down from 30 seconds.
"We can send it off with a bang," Sonic says.
The group look at each other and see that they have a plan to stop it.
Rouge flies past the robot as she calls out, "Yoo-hoo!"
Knuckles the punches one of it's rovers and Shadow punches the other one. Sonic and Eve then spin dash as they jump in the air.
"Down the hatch!" Sonic tosses the bomb in as he says.
The bomb falls into the robot's mouth. Soon the bomb explodes, destroying the robot.
Eve cheers, "Alright!"
Soon the volcano begins to erupt as the volcano spread smoke. Then the ground begins to split in two as the debris and rock begins to gall.
In the Tornado, everyone calls out, "Come on! We gotta go!"
At sunset, everyone is in the boat as they see the volcano erupting .
"Murasian culture seems more mysterious than ever to me now. I only wish we had more time," Dr. Cadberry says.
They continue to see the volcano spouting black smoke
Dr. Cadberry adds, "Their achievements were astounding. But perhaps they went too far. Did their quest for greatness lead to their destruction? We may never know for sure."
Rouge looks at the red gem she has smuggled from the island, "Today I almost got crushed in a cave, mangled by a monster, and cooked by a volcano, but finding this baby made it all worth while."
Shadow, Knuckles Topaz simply glare at her as she comments.
Fiona facepalm her forehead, "Oh brother."
Nic then turns to Dr. Cadberry, "Maybe we don't have time to explore the city, but we didn't leave empty handed.
"What do you mean?" Amy asks.
Eve and Nic look at each other with smiles. Not long, they both empty their backpack to reveal multiple gems like the one Rouge found. Also a few ancient slabs with pictures and ancient writings on them
"I convinced Eve to help me carry some of these gems and ancient stuff for you Doc," Nic says.
Dr. Cadberry says with a smile, "Wow! You managed to collect all that."
"With Eve's speed is possible," Nic says.
"Thank you. Feel free to drop by the museum any time and see them," Dr. Cadberry says.
"Sure Doc," Nic says.
Sally looks at the island and says to Sonic, "Decoe and Bocoe sacrificed themselves to help me."
"Yeah. Guess they weren't so bad after all," Sonic says.
"They proved themselves to be heroes," Bunnie says.
"I'm gonna miss having those two as enemies," Amy says.
Sally can remember everything Bocoe and Decoe have done for them. Carrying the Master Emerald, help with the Meterax, Black Arms, and other adventures. To them, it turns out Bocoe and Deceo aren't so bad after all.
Suddenly, they hear a familiar robotic voice, "You have warmed our cold metallic hearts."
Everyone turns around in surprise to see Bocoe and Decoe and are put back together again.
"Luckily, we pulled ourselves together just in time to escape the volcano," Bocoe says.
Soon, Bocoe and Decoe are happy.
"You really are incredible," Sally says with a smile.
Eve laughs, "I have to admit, you guys got guts."
Rotor, Tails, and the others walk into the room.
"Two resourceful robots like these could come in very handy someday. If they'd like to join our team," Rotor says.
Decoe and Bocoe happily answer, "Oh, you bet we would!"
"Dr. Eggman always works us overtime!" Decoe says.
Then Bocoe says, "We would like to work him over!"
Then make their way to front of the ship
Decoe angrily say, "We slaved away for Eggman for long enough."
"Now we will take charge of our own future," Bocoe says.
As loud as they can towards the sunset, Bocoe and Decoe calls out, "Eggman, we quit!"
