Sonic arrives at the next zone Robotnik is at. The Marble Zone.

Sonic: I gotta find Eggman quick, and the next Chaos Emerald. Now let's see...

The blue hero marches ahead, collecting rings and destroying badniks. He stops when he finds a fireball coming out of the lava.

Sonic: Woah! That's really hot! Better stay clear of that lava.

He arrives inside a cave beneath the surface. Suddenly, he jumps away from spikes coming out of the floor, and then a squishing piston.

Sonic: Yikes! I don't know what's worse! Buzz bombers, spikes, caterkillers, or pistons

Deep inside the cavern, avoiding traps, he finds what looks to be a giant ring.

Sonic: That ring looks interesting. Better check it out.

He jumps through the ring and finds what looks to be a mystical colored dimension with fish models that also morph into birds, and then there are flashing square blocks bordering the place. The whole place spins. With that, he sets his eyes on a Chaos Emerald.

Sonic: Another emerald! Looks like I gotta spin my way through! Here goes!

He spins his way around the special stage. Avoiding the goals as best as he can. Pretty soon, he grabs the emerald and vanishes from the stage, back to where he was before he got in.

Sonic: Huh? I'm back here with the emerald.

He holds both the blue and yellow Chaos Emeralds in his hands.

Sonic: This makes two now. I better find the others quick.

He runs and jumps his way through the caves of the Marble Zone. Very soon, he finally makes his way out.

Sonic: Finally! Those spikes and lava traps were such a pain! Huh?

He looks forward and sees Eggman.

Sonic: There he is!

He runs ahead and confronts him.

Sonic: Hey Buttnik! How's it going?!

Dr. Robotnik: You're still following me?! Why don't you just back off?! Huh?

He notices the two emeralds with Sonic.

Dr. Robotnik: GRRRRRGH!

He pushes a button and a chute appears underneath his egg mobile.

Dr. Robotnik: Get a load of this!

He floats above the platform Sonic is in and shoots a fireball below him. Sonic jumps to the other platform and the fire on the one he jumped from spreads across it.

Sonic: Too slow!

Dr. Robotnik: Stop moving and give me the emeralds!

Sonic: How about no?!

He uses his spin attack on Robotnik.

Dr. Robotnik: Cocky little needle-mouse!

He shoots another fireball below him, Sonic jumps and hits him again.

Dr. Robotnik: Stop hitting me!

Another hit.

Dr. Robotnik: Come on now!

Another fireball.

Sonic: Nope!

Finally, with his last hit, the chute below Robotnik's egg mobile that shot the fire explodes. His Egg mobile explodes a couple of times and he flies away.

Dr. Robotnik: I will get you Sonic, if it's the last thing I do!

Sonic: Go ahead and try!

The blue hedgehog frees the animals trapped inside the next container, and rushes off to the next zone.
