Six months after the fall of the FinalHazard, everything was back to normal with some little changes. When the crew came back to Earth, the police came to arrest Eggman, but Sonic was here to save the day and he told the policemen that Robotnik helped them so he was free, but under conditions. Those conditions consisted of never try to conquer the world in the next 10 years. With Sonic and Tails, he made up a engineering company called the SoTagg Engine, Inc. Rouge and Knuckles went together on Angel Island to go on a watch for the Master Emerald. They both confessed that they couldn't live without each other, but in case they needed assistance of some sort, they built a warp between the warehouse of SoTagg inc to an isolated spot on Angel Island and the warp became functionnal in a couple of days. Sonic went through it one day with seven shiny things in his hands, trying not to feel the power of the emeralds in his hands he passed through the portal and he spotted Knuckles who hopefully was alone.
"Hey Knux", said the blue hedgehog. "How are you"
"I'm fine thanks", replied the Echidna. "What about you, Sonic".
"Well, I'm still having nightmares but I'm fine", said the hedgehog.
"Ok, what can I do for you", said Knuckles
"I want you to guard something important for me that only YOU, which means not me, not Tails and absolutely Rouge or Eggman, knows where it is", said Sonic.
"Hum let me think, you want me to guard your chili dogs", said Knuckles
(Sonic falls off in anime mode)
"Not exactly", said the blue hedgehog
"I was kidding Sonic, you want me to guard the Chaos emeralds", replied the red echidna while laughing.
"Yup", replied Sonic.
"Ok let me get a bag", said Knuckles.
Knuckles came back with a bag one miute after and took the emeralds from sonic hands and put them carefully in the bag. When he came the white emerald, a puzzled expression came out on his face.
"I know Knux", said Sonic. "When I chaos Controlled in the ARK, it change itself. I do wonder where it went".
"Ok, now Sonic I need to hide this and go dinner, bye for now my friend", replied the Echidna
"Bye Knuckles", said sonic and went through the portal.
Sonic went to his bed after his days of work, still wonder if he'll be having the nightmare. He drifted soon to sleep then it came back. Him and Shadow changing into their Super form, the battle against the FinalHazard, the final dash of Shadow, defeating the lizard for good and his lack of energy for coming back to the ARK. As Sonic watched Shadow fell towards the planet, he saw that Shadow was smiling. "Maybe he thinks he does something good for the first time who knows", thought Sonic.
Sonic woke up in a hurry and always at the same time, when he's about to teleport himself in the colony.
"Why", thought Sonic. "Why you continue to haunt me Shadow? Do you know something that I should know but I don't? Then Shadow show me, show me what I need to know."
Sonic then drifted back to sleep, wondering if Shadow will show him what he needs to know. The dream came back but as Shadow was about to disappear the time seemed to stop and Shadow came upwards and him and Sonic were in front of each other.
"I'm not haunting you Sonic, but look closely the next time, you may see something that will help you understand a lot of things and might be helping you in the future, also you might see why I,m smiling when I die." , said Shadow.
"Why don't you just say it to me Shadow", replied Sonic.
"Because, this is something you need to understand by yourself Sonic, even if I told you, it will useless to you, to know it", said Shadow. "Now go, Robotnik will call youin two minutes". Then as this sentence finished, shadow fell back to where it was and then Sonic woke up.
In the said two minutes by Shadow the phone rang.
"Hello", said a groggy Sonic
"Sonic, this is Robotnik, can you come down to the company please?", said Robotnik.
