We see the Oracle wiping chili off of his hand. Sonic is still sitting across from him.
SONIC (V.O.) Sorry I spat the chili on ya, Orc. Wow, a brother and a sister. How will I find them? And where are they?
ORACLE They're close. You have a friend who's helping you out to find them.
SONIC A friend. Who?
ORACLE Two-tailed kitsune.
SONIC You mean Tails?
ORACLE That's right. He told your brother and sister about the three of you while I told you about them.
SONIC Come again?
ORACLE Never mind.
SONIC So, let's say I see them. How will I know that's them?
ORACLE Easy. You're a triplet. You three look a lot a like. You're sister's purple and your brother's green. That's basically it. You three look alike, so you would know that they're them. And you also have a mother.
SONIC I have a mom, too?
ORACLE Yes, but you're not allowed to meet her. You can meet your siblings, but your mother stays in hiding until the time is right for the four of you to reunite. When you do, you will become the Council of Four. On that day, you'll overthrow Robotnik and restore peace to the planet.
SONIC Okay, I'll hold out on her, but where should I meet my siblings?
ORACLE Do what you feel is your love between all of you, and they'll come to you.
With that, the Oracle slowly vanishes.

We see the table vanish as well, but the plate of chili dog's stay with Sonic.
SONIC Whoa, whoa, whoa! What does that mean? Do what I love? What do I love to do that they might love to do?

ALEENA For what?
SWAT BOT Innocence is against the law.
Aleena walks right up to a bot and gets right in its face.
ALEENA I guess it's under the order of Doctor Ro-BUTT-nik, is it not?
The bot just stands there.
ALEENA (CONT.) What do you want?
SWAT BOT Your death.
ALEENA Why?
SWAT BOT Because we're ordered to.
ANOTHER ANGLE
In the shadows of the garage, Tails is sneaking up behind the bots with a small lazer gun.
ALEENA (V.O.) Well that sounds good but I got a better idea.
ON ALEENA AND THE BOTS
ALEENA (CONT.) How about, since Robotnik wants money to make his SWAT Bot factories, I'll lend you some and you can imprison me instead. How's that?
WIDER
Aleena reaches in her wallet.
ALEENA I'll let you in on some money here.
INT. WALLET
Aleena grabs the credit card with the small blade in it from earlier.
ON TAILS
Tails is slowly creaping behind the bot.
ON ALEENA AND BOTS
Aleena WINKS to Tails.
ON TAILS
Tails winks back, knowing the bots don't see him.
ON ALEENA
Aleena pulls out the credit card.
ALEENA Would plastic do well?
ON CREDIT CARD
Aleena presses on the card and the blade sticks out.
WIDER
Aleena slashes the blade across the bot's neck causing the head to fall right off!
ON TAILS
Tails stands up.
TAILS Eat lazer!
Tails fires his lazer gun at the bots.
ON BOTS
One bot is hit by the lazer and it's destroyed.
ON ALEENA
One bot nearly hit's Aleena, but Aleena grabs the bots arm and does a karati move knocking the bot off its feet.
ON TAILS
The last bot tries to grab Tails, but Tails does a Tae Qwan-Do kick and breaks the bot.
WIDER
All the bots are destoryed around Aleena and Tails. Aleena turns to Tails.
ALEENA My children?
TAILS They met. The Oracle will tell them the prophacy soon.
ALEENA Good. Let's get out of here.
Aleena runs out one way while Tails runs out a different way. We FADE OUT as they run.
