Author's Note: Hey, everyone! Long time no see! As I promised 6 months ago, I would be back and now I am back again! I hope you guys are excited to see my OC/Avatar/Buddy Steven be back in action in the Sonic X Universe! Now before you begin reading, I want to point out a few things. As I said from the Author's Note, I was gonna fix my Chapters/Episodes for spelling and make it better. Well I fixed all my past Chapters/Episodes errors, but this time I've decided on something else. Steven's prologue is gonna be changed again. I've done a lot of thinking and decided to have Steven's origin story be in a separate story. So there will be no Infinite or any Saga related to him or will be in in this story anymore. So there will just be the Original Episodes, the Archie Comic Adventures, the Chaos/Sonic Adventure, the Shadow/Sonic Adventure 2, the Egg Moon, the Emerl/Sonic Battle and the Homebounds Sagas from now on. I'm sorry if you all see that I've changed my mind again, but don't worry. This will for now be the last time I change anything in the beginning until anything else pops up. As for Steven's true potential that's related to his form Wrathful Steven, it will stay as I finally figured out on what my OC/Avatar/Buddy's true purpose really be. Now without further a do, let us finally continue with Sonic X: Steven the Hedgehog...
Welcome to the first Chapter/Issue of the Archie Adventure Series of Sonic X: Steven the Hedgehog. Now before everyone starts reading, I want to point out a couple of things. Few of the Original Chapter/Issues are gonna have changed settings based on the timeline that Sonic X took place. I'm mostly gonna be fixing the errors that were on the original Issues and make it fit in on how the timeline is suppose to go in the story. I'll also have my OC/Avatar make references from the original Chapters/Episodes. Now that I said all that I need to say, so sit back and enjoy the first Chapter/Issue of the Archie Adventure Series of Sonic X: Steven the Hedgehog.
Issues/Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4 take place 3 months after Birth! Super Sonic and Wrathful Steven (Countdown to Chaos) and before Season 2.
Steven's appearance also changed a bit from the end of Birth! Super Sonic and Wrathful Steven (Countdown to Chaos) if anyone hasn't noticed yet.
dbehi1: Eggman! You Little Shit! You just awoke Wrathful Steven! He's dangerous in that form! because of you Sonic,Chris, Steven, and everyone else got killed! I'll never forgive you for this! Greedzillas! beat that sad excuse of a doctor to a bloody pulp! "Greedzillas beat the living crap out of Eggman" "fast forward to Eggman all busted up with his clothes all ripped and his goggles broken and bruises everywhere and Decoe, Bocoe, and Boukun are all destroyed and smashed into pieces" It's Over Eggman.

"To Be Continued..."
fflyboyray - I have no words to say about any this.
Martin: Wow, so I guess this is the end of Season 1. The way Steven transformed, that was scary and cool. Wrathful Steven almost reminds me of Sonic's Werehog form only he's more feral. But in the next season, I wonder how Steven's role will be in Sonic Adventures. I just hope he will not be treated differently if he faces his friends again. I'm also guessing that the voice Steven heard is Tikal's. Hopefully she would be his guide in Season 2
fflyboyray - Yes, it was the end of Season 1. I'm glad you liked Steven's ikari state. Yes, it's almost like Sonic the Werehog, but like you said more feral and Wrathful Steven is slightly taller and more muscular than Sonic the Werehog. You'll have to wait and see because Season 2 will come out soon. You'll see how Steven is being treated when read this Chapter/Issue. It has been 3 months since that event took place up until this Chapter/Issues timeline. Yes, your right about the first part, but we'll get into the second part once we reach to the Chaos/Sonic Adventure Saga.
Guest: Sonic and the others need to be careful when they Steven again. Their a chance everyone will be afraid of him
fflyboyray - Well since it's been 3 months since it happened, it's possible Steven could be forgiven.
Panda39: That so beautiful. I almost cried.
fflyboyray - Yes, it was emotional towards the end and I think I did a good job on it.
Sonic45: Super Sonic is here! I hope Sonic comfort Steven in the next chapter. He needs this more then any after what happened.
fflyboyray - It's possible Sonic comforted Steven after what happened 3 months ago.
Twinthehedgehog: "Oh man Knuckles is gonna kill me!" twin mumbles, "uh hey guys its me twin, I have some bad news the master emeralds gone and not like gone from angle island its like The island IS JUST GONE!"
fflyboyray - Like I said, I have no words to say about any of this.
Train123: So wrathful steven act similar to Sonic's Werehog form only more aggressive. Knuckles did manage to calm him down a bit, only that moment was ruined thank to Eggman's robot. So Sonic and Chris are the main reason Steven became a brave character? Interesting.
fflyboyray - Yes, like I said. They're similar, but different in behavior, height and physical wise.
BazookaM1A1: Steve is Bruce Banner
fflyboyray - Maybe, maybe not.
Martin: Hey. Remember in the old Sonic the Hedgehog series where Dr Eggman would exclaim "I hate that hedgehog!" whenever Sonic foils his plans? In your story, if Sonic and Steven foil Eggman's plans, maybe you can have him say "I hate those hedgehogs!"
fflyboyray - Yes, I remember the classic lines Dr. Robotnik says from the cartoons. There's a possibility that could happen.
Pika2: I be surprise if the town of Green hills was mention or make a cameo in this story.
fflyboyray - You can find out in the beginning of the rewritten Plot.
Pika2: Your welcome!
fflyboyray - Thank you for being patient.
dbehi1: okie dokie
fflyboyray - Like I said, thank you for being patient.
Panda39: Happy Sonic 30th anniversary!
fflyboyray - Happy Belated Sonic 30th Anniversary!
Sonic45: Have you heard the Sonic 30th anniversary symphony and the trailers of the new Sonic games?
fflyboyray - Yes, I've heard and seen the Sonic 30th Anniversary Symphony and it was awesome. I was even surprised to see Nathan Shape (NateWantsToBattle) be part of it. I guess you can say he's officially part of the variety artists for the Sonic Soundtracks. I've completed Sonic Colors Ultimate 100% already and heard about the Sonic Rangers leaks.
Kd: I bet both Sonic and Steven have been training together for the past 6 months.
fflyboyray - Well it's been 3 months so far and yes it's possible they've been training still.
Unikitty09: After you finish making this story, think you can make Sonic:unleashed, colors ultimate and the Sonic 2020/2022 movie with Steven in it? Like for unleashed, think of it as a Sonic x movie that takes places in season 2 of the series and for colors ultimate or Rise of the wisps it take places 1 year after the event of season 3 and for the 2020/2022 movie were both movie version of Sonic and Steven know each other since childhood and see each other as brothers. Think about it if you want to.
fflyboyray - I've actually been having different thoughts and ideas on how Steven will play out in those game's story lines. But as for the Sonic the Hedgehog Movie (2020) and 2 (2022), I don't know yet.
Guest: Do think tikal and chaos and shadow will be shocked to see steven in his wrathful form in season 2
fflyboyray - I can't give you answer to that since we're not up to those points just yet, but close.
Guest: The 6 months are up can you start the second season now please
fflyboyray - Well you don't have to wait any longer because we're now starting it off with the first Chapter/Issue in this story.
Not long ago, Sonic the Hedgehog charged into Chaos Control to thwart Dr. Eggman's scheme to use the Seven Chaos Emeralds. During the Battle, an explosion hurled Sonic, his friends, Dr. Eggman, the Chaos Emeralds and Sonic and his friends' new friend and partner Steven the Hedgehog across dimensions until they found themselves in the City of Station Square on a Parallel Planet Earth. Now Sonic, Steven and their friends protect Station Square from Dr. Eggman's diabolical Plots...
Gotta Go Fast (Sonic X Theme) by NateWantsToBattle
In the desert outside of Station Square, the roar of a car's engine and the cheering of a crowd break the silence as Sonic the Hedgehog, Steven the Hedgehog and Sam Speed were now having their race that Sam wanted after Steven's victory from their last race to determine who's faster. And for the first time, it looks like Sonic might actually lose to both Steven and Sam as Sam's car went VROOOOM!
All New Series! (Savings~and~Groan)
In the crowd, Chris, Chuck, Tails, Amy, Cream, Cheese, E-77 Lucky and one of the S-Team Members named Paul were watching the race almost finish while cheering as Sam's race car went VRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM. "Incredible! Perhaps Sonic has met his matches" Chuck says, "Go, Sonic, go! Go, go, Steven! This is no time for relaxation!" Tails says, "Oh, Cream, what if Sonic or Steven lose?" Amy asked, "Don't worry, Amy. Sonic never loses a race and Steven will do his best to make it" Cream says, "Chao!" Cheese says, "Beep beep!" E-77 Lucky says, "I can't believe Uncle Sam is winning. Steven also appears to be going faster than Sonic too" Chris says, "Nothing can outrace the new engine we put in Sam's car, Chris" Paul says. Amy then grabs on to Tails while Cream tries to hold her back. "Why don't you throw Sonic and Steven rings, Tails?" Amy asked, "That would be cheating, Amy. Sonic and Steven wouldn't want to cheat" Cream says. At the race, Sonic was sweating while running and reaching his hand out. "Boy I sure wish I had a ring right now... But Amy would be upset with me if I cheated and I can't do that to Steven" Sonic says in his head. Steven was also sweating while his quills we're flowing backwards from his head. "Focus... Concentrate... Almost there..." Steven says in his head. Inside Sam's car, Sam looked forward while being serious. "There's the finish line! I'm actually going to beat both Sonic and Steven!" Sam says in his head before his car went VRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM as Sonic, Steven and Sam were almost at the finish line with another one of S-Team members named Dawn waved a flag at the finish line. I'll be the fastest man in Station Square once again!" Sam says in his head, "Not much further to go! I'd better pour on the speed!" Sonic says in his head, "Now it's time to go all out!" Steven says in his head.
Sonic takes a deep breath and pushes himself harder than ever he has before... Steven also took a deep breath and pushed himself too as he was about to take a big leap. "The winner is..." Dawn says as she waved the flag while Sam's car went VRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM. After Sonic, Steven and Sam reached the goal, it revealed that Sonic won 1st place, Steven 2nd and Sam in 3rd place. Sonic held out two peace signs, Steven had his arms wide open and Sam's car went VRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM while confetti was thrown all over. "Sonic the Hedgehog 1st place, Steven the Hedgehog 2nd place and Sam Speed 3rd place!" Dawn says off screen, "Yes!" Sonic says, "Alright!" Steven says. Back in the crowd, everyone cheers except for Paul who throws his hat on the ground while thinking about lighting strikes from a cloud in his head. "Ah hah hah hah hah hah!" Chuck says, "I knew they could do it!" Tails says, "Yay, Sonic and Steven!" Chris says, "They did it, Cream! Sonic and Steven won 1st and 2nd of the race!" Amy says, "Hurray, Sonic and Steven! Hurray!" Cream says, "Chao! Chao!" Cheese says. "Beep, beep, beep!" E-77 Lucky says.
Tails, Amy, Cream, Cheese, Chris and E-77 Lucky went up to Sonic and Steven. "That was amazing, guys!" Chris says, "I've never seen you run so fast!" Amy says, "Aw, it was nothin. I guess you can say now me and Steven are equal in speed" Sonic says, "We're equals now?" Steven asked, "That's right. Great race, Steven. This turned out better than I thought" Sonic says before he and Steven did a fist bump. "Thanks" Steven says, "You're both the Best" Amy says while she hugs both Sonic and Steven tightly and gives a kiss on Sonic's cheek with hearts in the background. "Uh... Thanks, Amy" Sonic says. Steven chuckled a bit before E-77 Lucky jumped happily towards Steven. "Aww. I'm glad you enjoyed it too, Lucky" Steven says and laughs while he lifts E-77 Lucky in the air while E-77 Lucky beeps happily again. With Sam, he got out of his car and took his helmet off while Paul and Dawn were checking on him. Paul was also holding a timer in his hand. "That was your best time ever, Sam!" Paul says, "It wasn't good enough, Paul" Sam says, "You're still the fastest human on the streets of Station Square, Sam" Dawn says before Sam looks towards Sonic, Steven, Amy and E-77 Lucky with Sonic and Steven looking at Sam. "But I lost to not 1- But 2 Hedgehog!" Sam says, "Aw, nobody's perfect" Sonic says, "Except you and Steven, Sonic" Amy says in her head, "It's okay, Sam. All that matters is you tried. When you build a new upgrade for your car, then call me and Sonic and we'll race again if you want" Steven says before Chuck goes to everyone else. "Come on everybody, we've got to get back to the house. Ella said she'd make a special dinner for the winners" Chuck says, "'Kay, Grandpa" Chris says before they all leave. Sam, Dawn and Paul watched everyone leave while Sam still looked annoyed. "I'm tired of playing second fiddle to Steven and now Sonic's stealing my thunder! We're going back to the garage to build a better, faster engine for my car like Steven said! Then I'll be the fastest human or hedgehog in town!" Sam says.
Meanwhile, in Mystic Ruins off Station Squares' Emerald Coast, Dr. Eggman's newly temporary tower base with a bridged tunnel to get across casts a thin forbidding shadow over the forest. There was also an under constructed fortress on the lower ground. Inside, the halls reverberate with an enraged shout while there were monitors showing Rouge, Topaz and other citizens in Stations Square doing their errands while Decoe and Bocoe were taking cover. "It's not fair! Here I am, the greatest genius on this puny, backwards Planet... ... And no one will give me the components I need to build my World-Conquering Robots and soon to be completed Flying Fortress" Dr. Eggman says. Decoe and Bocoe then pop out a bit. "Why not, Dr. Eggman?" Decoe asked, "You don't suppose it has something to do with the world-conquering things do you?" Bocoe asked, "Bah! Stupid humans! They expect me to pay for the parts! Me! Pay?! It's just not right! They should just give me what I need as a thank you for not crushing them beneath the heels of my next all-powerful robot and plan!" Dr. Eggman says, "What are you going to do, sir?" Decoe asked off screen.
Dr. Eggman then faces the monitors that showed people paying cash at registers. "I have been studying the inhabitants of this planet ever since reverse Chaos Control... They exchange little pieces of paper for goods and services" Dr. Eggman says. A monitor then showed an ice cream man giving ice cream to a little boy. "They call the little pieces of paper 'Money.'" "Why they pretend these little pieces of paper have any intrinsic value is beyond me" Dr. Eggman says before rubbing his head. "It must be a Mass Hallucination of some kind" Dr. Eggman says before he looks at Decoe and Bocoe. "With my great intellect, I have determined we must get some of those pieces of paper for ourselves" Dr. Eggman says, "How do we do that, sir?" Decoe asked before he, Bocoe and Dr. Eggman continue look at the monitors again. "That's the best and most puzzling part of it. Humans simply walk up to machines throughout the city and take money out... ... And no one tries to stop them!" Dr. Eggman says before it showed a woman putting money in the ATM on the monitor. "Then we should take money out of a machine and trade it for goods and services" Decoe says, "That's exactly what you are going to do..." Dr. Eggman says.
That afternoon outside of the Twelfth National Bank of Station Square, INC, Decoe and Bocoe were looking at an ATM machine while Officer Albright was patrolling the area. "So, how do we get the money out, Decoe?" Bocoe asked, "I do not know, Bocoe. Perhaps we should just ask. We need money. Please give us some" Decoe says, "It's not doing anything" Bocoe says before he and Decoe notice a woman named Miss Mary walked by while Officer Albright says as he lifted his hat. "Here comes someone. Let's watch what she does" Decoe says, "Top O' Th' Mornin' T'ye, Miss Mary" Officer Albright says, "Thanks, Officer Albright. Is that a new accent?" Miss Mary asked, "Aye, that I be. I'm starrin' in a production of "Death of a Salesman" that be openin' next week" Officer Albright says and Miss Mary goes up to the ATM. Decoe and Bocoe hide behind a recycle can while a mother and child walk by with the child noticing Decoe and Bocoe as they continue walking. "That's the secret! She pressed the buttons" Bocoe says, "Brilliant! We must press the buttons!" Decoe says before they went back up to the machine and Decoe pressed some buttons while Officer Albright noticed them. "It's still not giving us any money. What do we do now?" Decoe asked, "I say we Break it open and take the little pieces of paper out" Bocoe says, "Works for me" Decoe says before Officer Albright goes up to them from behind and takes out his stick with Decoe and Bocoe looking shocked. "Havin' a spot of bother, are ye? Perhaps ye'd like T' come down T' The Station an' explain yourselves?" Officer Albright asked, "Eep!" Decoe and Bocoe said at the same time.
Later, at the Sprawling Thorndyke Estate, Luxurious home of Chris and his grandfather. It's also the home of Chris's parents, Lindsay and Nelson, but they're rarely ever there because their jobs take them all over the world. Until Sonic, Steven and their friends arrived on Earth, Chris' only companions outside of school were his Grandfather Chuck, the Maid Ella, and the Butler Mr. Tanaka. Chuck's car parked in the front and Chris, Sonic, Steven and everybody else started to make their way to the entrance. Mr. Tanaka and Ella then answered the front doors in panic. "Master Chris! Thank goodness you are home!" Ella says, "You must go inside the house right away!" Mr. Tanaka says before Chris, Sonic, Tails and Steven rush up the stairs. "Why?! What's wrong?!" Chris asked. And inside the house, a Happy reunion... Nelson and Lindsay were in a room and Chris goes up to them. Chris then hugs Lindsey. "Mom! Dad! You're home!" Chris says. While Elsewhere, a much Less Happy reunion... Decoe and Bocoe explained to Dr. Eggman on what happened at the monitors area. "You malfunctioning nincompoops have failed again!" Dr. Eggman says, "Sorry, sir" Decoe says, "Fortunately, I learned something very interesting while you were bungling your mission..." Dr. Eggman says.
The monitors then changed to money in a vault with Dr. Eggman pointing at them and Decoe and Bocoe looking at them. "This city has dozens of buildings dedicated to storing money in the form of "Cold Hard Cash!" They are called Banks!" Dr. Eggman says, "Oooooooooo" Decoe and Bocoe said at the same time. "And tomorrow, we shall visit one such bank and remove all its money" Dr. Eggman says, "A cunning plan, sir!" Decoe says, "But why don't we go tonight?" Bocoe asked before Decoe looked annoyed. "Fool! You know tonight is the night I wax my mustache!" Dr. Eggman says before he went up to his slot machine. "I have selected the twelfth National Bank of Station Square, INC., On the outskirts of town where the rich Thorndyke Family keeps their money..." Dr. Eggman says as he pulled the lever with a K-CHUNK. "... But which of my robots shall make the withdrawal?" Dr. Eggman asked as the slots spin with a WHIRRRRRRR. The slots stop on all 3 and shows a mouse robot named Ben-728 Packratbot. "Ah! Ben-728- Packratbot! The perfect thief! 🎶Ben, the two of us need fear no more. We'll soon steal the cash that I am looking for!🎵" Dr. Eggman says.
The next morning... Sonic, Steven, Tails, Amy, Cream, Cheese, Chuck, Lindsay, Nelson and E-77 Lucky were sitting at the dining table and eating breakfast while Ella pours water to everyone's cups in the dining room. "Since you have this week off from school, your father and I decided to come home and spend some time with you" Lindsay says, "Should we go to our villa on the beach for the day?" Nelson asked, "Can my friends come too?" Chris asked, "Of course, Dear" Lindsay says. Chris, Tails, Amy and Cream and Cheese chair which caused Ella to spill the water. "Yaaaay!" Chris, Tails, Amy and Cream said at the same time, "Chao!" Cheese says, "Another beach day? Count me in!" Steven says, "Beep, beep, beep!" E-77 Lucky says, "Before we go to Emerald Coast, we have to stop at the bank" Lindsay says, "'Kay!" Chris says before going up to Sonic. "Aren't you coming, Sonic?" Chris asked, "Nah. The bank and the beach sound boring to me. I'm going to go find some real excitement" Sonic says before he leaves. "Hmm... I feel like we've seen this before..." Steven says, "Yeah..." Chris says before he and Steven look at each other. "Beep?" E-77 Lucky asked, getting Steven and Chris' attention as they look at it. "Hmm?" Steven asked before he and Chris continue to think. After a few seconds, Chris and Steven let out a laugh. "I remember now" Steven says.
Later, at the Twelfth National Bank of Station Square, INC... Mr. Tanaka was waiting outside in front of his truck. "I never thought it would be so busy this morning..." Lindsey says off screen. Inside the Tewlfth National Bank of Station Square, INC, it was so busy that E-77 Lucky, Steven, Cream, Cheese, Tails, Amy, Chuck, Chris, Nelson and Lindsay were waiting on line. Tails also was wearing a bag. "Only seven hours and forty-seven minutes until quitting time..." a security cop says in his head as he monitored the inside. "Comic book writer? I can't give you a loan unless you have a real job" an employee says to a comic book writer on a desk. "Lines like these are why I always use ATMs, dear" Nelson says, "I wish Sonic was here" Amy says, "You know he doesn't like water. He hates to go to the beach" Tails says, "It's the way Sonic is, Amy. The only way he'll ever get over his fear is to face it" Steven says, "I know, Steven, but Sonic's still too stubborn to do so" Amy says. "Beep, beep, beep, beep" E-77 Lucky says, "I know. You wish he was here too, Lucky" Steven says and pats E-77 Lucky. Back outside, Mr. Tanaka heard some noises. "Huh?" Mr. Tanaka asked as he looked around. "Yikes!" Mr. Tanaka says as he saw something.
Mr. Tanaka then burst the doors wide open, getting everyone's attention. "Hey!" the security cop says in surprise. "Everybody! Run for cover!" Mr. Tanaka says before a CRRRASSSHHHH! happened. Dr. Eggman was in his Egg Mobile with Ben-728 Packratbot breaking through the entrance while Dr. Eggman lets out a HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!. "I hope you don't mind, but I really hate waiting in line! So, If you'll just give me all your money, I'll be on my way!" Dr. Eggman says, "I'm definitely not getting paid enough to deal with this!" the security cop says in his head with fright.
Unaware of Dr. Eggman's attack, Sonic visits Angel Island which floats over the Mystic Ruins and the Sapphire Sea. Sonic zooms around before stopping up to Knuckles who was on the edge. "Knuckles! I'm glad to see you!" Sonic says, "Why? What do you want, Sonic?" Knuckles asked as he rubbed his head and looked at Sonic. "Let's go for a run!" Sonic says, "I have more important things to do" Knuckles says before turning to Sonic. "I must stay here to guard the Master Emerald" Knuckles says before he walks away and Sonic blocks him. "It's not going anywhere" Sonic says before Knuckles jumps up in the air. "Wouldn't it be more fun to go on an adventure?" Sonic asked, "Sorry, Sonic, but I cannot leave this place. I have sworn an oath to protect the Master Emerald, and I do not go back on my word unless there is a good reason" Knuckles says as he leaves.
Back at the Twelfth National Bank of Station Square, INC... Ben-728 Packrabot was zapping it's laser from it's eyes with a ZZZAPPP. Steven was pushing everyone to the ground to get cover. "There will be substantial penalties for anyone who gets in my way!" Dr. Eggman says, "You dirty rat!" Amy says, "Dive for cover, Chris!" Chuck says, "I thought I wouldn't see Dr. Eggman for awhile after what happened 3 months ago!" Steven says. Ben-728 Packratbot then made it's way to Lindsay and Nelson while Nelson protects Lindsay. Mr. Tanaka then steps out as he pulled off his Martial Arts moves while letting out a HEEEE-YAAAAA!. This got Ben-728 Packrabot's attention as it looked at Mr. Tanaka. Cream and Cheese then peeked from a flower plant. "Chao!" Cheese says, "Look out, Mr. Tanaka!" Cream says as Ben-728 Packratbot used it's tail to hit Mr. Tanaka. "Ooooof!" Mr. Tanaka says as he crashed into the wall. "Come, Ben! The money we seek is beyond this door!" Dr. Eggman says as he pointed at a vault door. Ben-728 Packratbot got on it's four legs and sniffed the vault door.
Amy and Tails then try to think of a plan. "We've got to do something!" Amy says, "I wish Sonic was here" Tails says, "Well, he's not, so it's up to us" Amy says. Steven was running and dodging the fire power while holding E-77 Lucky and E-77 Lucky looked scared. "Beep, beep, beep!" E-77 Lucky says, "I know you're scared, Lucky, but don't worry, I'm gonna take care of all this and this will all be over soon. Just take cover and don't get hurt" Steven says before he ran up to Cream and Cheese. "Make sure nothing happens to Lucky, guys" Steven says as he placed E-77 Lucky with them. "You can count on us, Steven" Cream says, "Chao chao!" Cheese says, "Thanks guys. Stay safe!" Steven says before he went up to Tails and Amy. "It's now or never, guys! Are we gonna do this or what?" Steven asked, "Okay, leave this to me" Amy says before she takes her Piko piko hammer out. "Go for it, Amy!" Steven says, "Attention, Ben-Launch Rear Missiles!" Dr. Eggman says off screen. "Hey, Ratface! Eat Mallet!" Amy says before she hits Ben-728 Packrabot on the back while Ben-728 Packratbot was about to fire missiles. Amy's Piko piko hammer made a KLANG and with one swift blow and the missiles are launched... But not where Dr. Eggman intended! The missiles flew towards Dr. Eggman and exploded with a BOOOOOOOM. The smoke clears and Dr. Eggman was in crispt. "Oh, fooo! It's going to take more than a free toaster to make me happy after that!" Dr. Eggman says.
Dr. Eggman then pointed at Amy who was about to attack Ben-728 Packratbot while Tails flew and Steven, Cream and Cheese watch. "Crush her!" Dr. Eggman says, "No you don't!" Steven says before he punched Ben-728 Packrabot. This caused Ben-728 Packrabot to get pushed as it was about to whip it's tail at Amy, but Tails flew and grabbed Amy. Ben-728 Packrabot's tail made a THUNK against the ground which caused Amy to drop her Piko piko hammer. "Hey!" Amy says, "Don't worry, Amy! I've got you!" Tails says before Steven jumped and grabbed Amy's hammer. "Got it!" Steven says before he lands on the ground. Steven then holds the hammer in his right hand. "So what's it gonna be, Dr. Eggman? Revenge or money? Your choice!" Steven asked as he pointed Amy's hammer at Dr. Eggman. Dr. Eggman then looked back at Steven, Tails and Amy and then at the vault door. "Revenge? Money? Revenge? Money? Revenge or money? It's so hard to choose!" Dr. Eggman says, "You got a few seconds to make your decision" Steven says, "Oh, why should I deny myself anything? Revenge, then money!" Dr. Eggman says, "Fine! Have it your way!" Steven says as he got in front of Amy and Tails and gave Amy back her Piko piko hammer. "Ben, smash those irksome meddlers!" Dr. Eggman says before Ben-782 Packratbot faced Steven and the others and Steven got into his fighting stance.
Back in Station Square, Sonic was running through until he heard a WEEEOOOOO-WEEEOOOOO coming from a siren. "I wonder what the sirens are about..." Sonic says in his head. Sonic then ran next to a speed car. "...Calling all cars! Robbery in progress!... Corner of Pellek and English Streets. Dr. Eggman believed involved!" the man says from the car. "Why is it every time I leave town, something exciting happens? I don't want to miss the fun!" Sonic says as he speeds up to the location. Back at the Twelfth National Bank of Station Square, INC... Ben-728 Packratbot was about to attack. "You're not so tough when Sonic's not here" Dr. Eggman says, "That's what you think, but we're stronger than you think!" Steven says before Sonic appears and grabs Amy and Tails. "That's right, Eggman, and now that I'm here, we're going to rid the town of your vermin!" Sonic says, "Sonic!" Amy says, "I knew you wouldn't let us down!" Tails says, "Perfect timing, Sonic" Steven says while Dr. Eggman looked mad and Ben-728 Packratbot looked surprised. "Let's go, Steven!" Sonic says as he went next to Steven. "Okay!" Steven says.
Ben-728 Packratbot started ZZZAPPP ZZZAPPP ZZZAPPP ZZZAPPP it's laser eyes at Sonic and Steven, but Sonic and Steven jumped around while dodging. "You gotta be faster than that if you're gonna hit us!" Sonic says before he makes a jump. "Head's up, you lousy louse!" Sonic says before he was WHAP by Ben-728 Packrabot's tail. "Ouch!" Sonic says, "Sonic!" Steven says as he went up to Sonic. "You okay?" Steven asked, "Never better..." Sonic says, "Sonic! Catch!" Tails says as he went in his bag to pull something out. This got Ben-728 Packratbot's attention and it fired missiles towards Tails with a BOOM. "Yikes!" Tails says as he went flying.
Tails then landed on the ground. "Tails!" Steven says as a few rings fell out of the bag. "Oops!" Tails says as all the rings went all over the place. Steven saw how the rings were spinning and standing up. "I didn't know rings could do that" Steven says, "This isn't good!" Amy says, "Oh no!" Chris says, "Ah ha!" Dr. Eggman says. Steven looked around fast and saw a ring nearby. "Right there!" Steven says as he went up to the ring and picked it up. "Got it!" Steven says. Sonic saw ring was about to roll towards him "Perfect!" Sonic says as he stopped a ring rolling on the floor with his foot. "This is just what I need!" Sonic says before he picks up the ring. "Thanks, buddy! Now it's time to end this rat race once and for all! You ready, Steven?" Sonic asked, "Let's go!" Steven says.
Sonic and Steven started to do spin attacks. Sonic and Steven spin attacked all over Ben-728 Packratbot with THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK, making Ben-728 Packratbot crumble a bit. "Ratzn-Fratzn Hedgehogs!" Dr. Eggman says as Sonic and Steven broke through Ben-728 Packratbot through it's head with a H-WHUNK. This made Ben-728 Packratbot shoot laser from it's eyes. Sonic and Steven then pop out and broke Ben-728 Packratbot's head off with a K-THUNK and pop crackle snap. Ben-728 Packratbot then drops on the ground destroyed. "Now let's have a look in the inside" Sonic says as he and Steven then go on top of Ben-728 Packratbot and tried to lift the head off. "While Sonic and Steven are distracted, I'll make my move!" Dr. Eggman says.
Dr. Eggman then notices the rings still on the ground. Dr. Eggman steps out of his Egg Mobile and then started to picks the rings up. "These rings may be more valuable than all the little slips of paper in the vault!" Dr. Eggman says in head. After a few seconds, Sonic and Steven pulled the head off and it vealed a mouse inside. "?" the mouse asked with a questioned look. "This is no way to get ahead in the world, little buddy!" Sonic says, "How could something so terrible on the outside be so adorable in the inside?" Steven asked as he brought his hand towards the mouse. The mouse backed away a bit. "It's okay, little guy. I won't hurt you. I'm just gonna get you to safety" Steven says. After a few seconds, the mouse went on Steven's hand. "There you go" Steven says as he puts the mouse on his shoulder. The mouse squeaked happily and Steven chuckled a bit. "Your account's been closed, Eggman!" Sonic says as pieces from Ben-728 Packratbot HISSSS POP. "!" the mouse said as it got scared. "Don't worry, little guy. It's all over now" Steven says as he rubbed the mouse' head with his finger. Dr. Eggman then started to make his way out with his Egg Mobile. "Considering the disreputable clientele of the establishment..." Dr. Eggman says before going outside. "... I shall take my custom elsewhere!" Dr. Eggman says as he flew away while letting out a HAHAHA HAHAHA!. "Good luck with that" Steven says before another WEEEOOOOO-WEEEOOOOO was heard and the race cars parked at the scene. Sam gets out the car and goes up to Sonic, Steven and Chris while holding his helmet. "You missed all the excitement, Uncle Sam. Sonic and Steven saved the day!" Chris says, "For a Speed Team, it sure took you long enough to get here" Sonic says, "I'm sure the've been quicker before" Steven says and the mouse squeaked happily and Steven chuckled. "Someday I'll be Station Square's hero again!" Sam says in his head. Steven then looks at the sky. "Looks like Dr. Eggman's terrorizing days are back in action" Steven says in his head.
Chris's school vacation is over, and Lindsay and Nelson Thorndyke leave Station Square to go back to work. A few days later, Chris, Chuck, Sonic and Steven receive a very important visitor as there were limo's parked in front of the Thorndyke Mansion with a few men and security standing around. "We can't thank you enough for foiling Eggman's bank robbery last week, Sonic and Steven" the President says off screen as inside the Thorndyke Mansion, Chris, Chuck, Sonic, Steven, Tails and Amy were in a room with The President, the Director of Central Intelligence, Topaz and Rouge. "Time and again, you and your friends have protected the people of this country" The President says, "Aww it was nothin', Mr. President" Sonic says, "We love doing our job to protect those no matter what the cost is" Steven says, "Now I come to ask you both to undertake a very important mission for me" The President says. Sonic and Steven then saluted. "Yes, sir, Mr. President. You can count on us!" Sonic says, "It will be an honor to help you once again, Mr. President" Steven says. Meanwhile... Dr. Eggman was back at his temportal tower base as he, Decoe and Bocoe were looking at the rings Dr. Eggman collected. "Dr. Eggman, what was that device you had us hide in that Sunken Ship?" Decoe asked, "The first step in my plan to rid myself of Sonic and Steven the Hedgehogs once and for all. And these rings I snatched at the bank will be the key to both Sonic and Steven's ultimate defeat!" Dr. Eggman says as he lets out a HAHAHAHAHAHA! Dr. Eggman's plans to stop Sonic and Steven as well as take over the world were back in action.
