Me: HEY! HEY! HEY! (Laugh like Krusty)

Hunimals: AAAHHHH!!

Terra: Don't scare us like that or you'll kind yourself without that big head of yours.

Me: ~gulp~…Any way, I do not own Sonic and Mario characters. If I did, there would already be a Sonic and Mario game already out there, in stores near you.

Max: Again with a story with that wannabe of me!

Me: As much as it pains me to say this: Who has all the video games starting him?

Max: ME!!

(Terra smacks him on the back of the head)

Mallory: Let's get on with this! I heard you put in a cute little romantic moment with that…

Me: Quite! You'll spoil the story! How is it you put up with her when you two go to the movies, Chiller?

Chiller: (blushing) I don't know what you're talking about?

                                              Sonic and Mario

  I am Dr. Robotnik, the greatest scientific genius of the world! After the ARK incident, where that excursed Shadow tricked me and I was forced to side with Sonic, I returned to Mobius and destroyed my now discovered secret base and went to my new secret base (If I told you where then it wouldn't be secret, would it?). I discovered that Sonic was going to banish the Chaos Emeralds in the special zone, but something brought them into another zone. I found high energy resources in the zone and thought it could be useful. I also discovered that a turtle dragon is this world's terrorists. Well I decide to dispose of him to claim this world. But as I battled him, I figured that once I begin my latest plan, Sonic will once again spoil them. They say that two minds are better then one. What better way to rid our enemies than join forces, huh? HA! HA! HA!     

 Chapter 2 – Deals and Propositions

  Back at Toad Town, the parade was over, and everyone has gone home, except for Luigi, who was tossing around his baton, is sitting on one of the floats after leading the parade, again, and Gombario [A/N: My favorite Paper Mario character. I always picture him with Izzy's voice from Digimon.], who was drinking a bottled Kero Kola, is sitting next to him. As Gombario slurp his soda, he noticed Luigi looking pretty depressed.

  "Hey, Luigi, what is the matter with you?" he asked.

  "Nothing you have to worry about." Luigi sighed.

Just when Gombario was gonna ask again, Mario and Peach called to Luigi as they ran to him.

  "Hey there, guys, how come you two bailed out from the parade…? Oh I see! You two were having a date!" he said as he winked.

  Two of the shades of red flashed upon the pair's cheeks. "IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!! WE'RE JUST FRIENDS!!" Mario yelled as he blushed. The feeling was mutual for Peach. Why does everyone think they're an item?

  "Yeah sure… Whatever!" Gombario laughed. "I can't believe after all the times you saved Princess Peach, you guys still say you're just friends, am I right, Luigi?"

  "Yeah, whatever." Luigi said in a low tone as he dropped his baton and looked directly at the floor.

  "What's eating him?" Gombario asked the two.

  "He's just in one of his moods, which is why we're here." Peach said, matter-a-facty. "Luigi, I figure out a way to end your depression for good!"

  "Yeah? What?" Luigi asked.

  "We set you on a blind date with Daisy." Mario said.

Luigi snapped his head up while his eyes went bug-wide.

  "DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT 'BLIND DATE' IS?" Peach yelled at Mario.

  "I….thought it meant you have to be blind folded or something." Mario said as held Gombario in front of him as for protection.

Peach held her need to smack him on the back of his head as she said, calmly: "Mario, sometimes you're an idiot."

 "WHAT POSSESED YOU TO DO SUCH A THING?" Luigi yelled.

 "Come on, wedgie. It'll do you some good." Mario said.

 "Yeah, and just incase you chicken out or something, this will be a double date, too!" Peach added.

 "You never told me that!" Mario said. "With who?"

 "You and me, silly!"

With that said, like it hit him like an arrow, Mario stood stiff and frozen. Time froze within the plumber's mind. He was unable to move while his eyes went bug-wide, too.

 "D..d..did..y…y.you…." Mario try to say.

 "Well the date is tomorrow night, so I'll see you boys at breakfast!" Peach said as she head back to her castle, leaving the stiff and red-faced Mario Bros. and a laughing Gombario behind.

  ***************

 Back in the now just repairing Bowser's castle, we find Bowser Koopa and Dr. Ivo Robotnik discussing their past deeds and deals in one of Bowser's rooms that he relaxes after getting the tar beat by Mario. It has a huge fire place that covers the whole room in a relaxing color of a orange-gold, and red feathered padded chairs.

    "…And so after the ARK was about to fall into Mobius orbit, I had no choice but to side forces with that annoying hedgehog!" Robotnik said as he took a sip of his Koopa tea. "Do you have any idea how embarrassing it is to team up with you're hated foe?"

 "Oh, how I know!" Bowser said. "Some robotic punk threw me out of my castle and turned it into a factory for making his minions. I had to team up with that plumber to get my home back! At least you didn't side with your enemy for at least a week and a half."

 "Yes. So what abilities does this plumber have?" Robotnik asked.

 "Argh! He hops around like an annoying frog, jumps really far, and stomps people on the head. Oh, he also can throw fireballs thanks to all the times he used those fire flowers. And yours?"

 "By my calculations, Sonic can run a speed up to mach 1. He also has the ability to use the power of the Chaos Emeralds, which he calls it Chaos Control. The Chaos Emeralds, now that I mentioned them, is why I'm here for. After the ARK, Sonic planned to banish the emeralds to the special zone. But something brought the emeralds here."

 "So what's so special about these jewels, and why you try to put me out of the picture?"

 "The emeralds contain unbelievable power, like your power stars and that Star Rod you had. I planned to exterminate you just incase you plan on taking the emeralds for yourself. But seeing how you proved yourself worthy, I decide to join our resources if to eradicate our enemies so no one would ruin the plan I have for taking over both worlds. If I know my 'worthy adversary' he would try to follow me here after seeing all the noise I'll cause."

 "Noise you'll cause? What do you mean?"

 "I am going back to my world to bring back some supplies. The amount of supplies I will bring would not fit in my teleporter. So I will have to find something to create a huge portal."

  "And what will that be?"

The nefarious man of science and evil appeared a large smile of wickedness. 

               ________________________________________________

 Chapter 3 – Memories of an unthanked deed.

  The next morning in Mobius, on the floating island called Angel Island, the guardian of the Master Emerald, Knuckles the Echidna, sleeps on the pedestal of the Master Emerald. It is a hard job to guard the emerald; A boring, hard job. He has his friends, the Chaotix, to help him out, but it's still a tiring job.

  As he sleeps, he began to dream about the events that involves with a certain girl that at first stole the emerald, but helped him out at the end.

 "Oh, hi there! Are you a resident of this place?" she asked as she approached him.

 Knuckles didn't know what to say. He's normally shy around girls. And it seems she had no knowledge on who he, or the floating island. It would seem that she's just a common thief with no evil intentions.

 "Uh, no I'm just passing through, then I caught a glimpse of that emerald." He lied. "I'm Knuckles the Echidna. You can call me Knuckles."

 "My name is Rouge the Bat. Better known as the treasure hunter, Rouge." She said, figuring he was just another guy after her looks.. "Like the jewel? I found it lying around in a floating rock just waiting for me."

 "Kind of. But did you wonder why that rock was floating, and why that emerald was just sitting with a red guy YOU JUST AMBUSHED?" he yelled.

 "What? What do you..?"

 "Cause that emerald was the source of the island's power and that red guy you hit was its guardian: ME!"

 Rouge had it with playing miss nice girl as she lost her temper.    

"Just..LET IT GO! You don't know when to give up, do you?" she yelled as she stomped her feet.

"What are you talking about? That emerald is mine!...You got that?" Knuckles growled as he lost his temper.

 As Knuckles flew down to the middle of the Meteor Herd Zone, he spots Rouge waiting for him at the railing.

 "Long time no see, treasure hunter!" she said with a grin. "Did you find my emeralds?"

 "That's a good one; your emeralds?" he said. "Talking to you is a waste of time!"

As she flew down to the retractable floor, Knuckles was right behind her as he shouted: "Hand over those emerald pieces; Give them to me!"

 "Very well then, if that's the way you wanna be, I'll just have to take them from you!"

"STOP FOOLING AROUND! AND GIVE ME BACK MY EMERALDS!" they said in unison.

 They both stared at each other in surprised looks as they thought: "Did we just said that at the same time?" But they shook off that feeling then Rouge shouted:

 "What are you talking about? You call yourself a treasure hunter, attacking a lady?!? SHAME ON YOU!"

 "What kind of a lady goes around stealing gems, anyway?" Knuckles yelled.

 As she stepped forward, she yelled: "Those belong to ME!" but she lost her footing and fell off the platform. As she screamed, she closed her eyes, waiting to fall to her death, when suddenly, she felt like she stopped in mid air. As she opened her eyes, she found herself in a big surprise.

 "What in the world…?" Knuckles was hanging upside down with his feet clinging to the railing, and his hands holding on to Rouge's. He pulled her back upwards, and heaved her back to the platform. But then he found himself staring into her eyes as she looked back. For a few seconds, they were lost in each other's eyes, but some how they broke off the trance and jumped away from each other.

 "Keep your hands to yourself! Don't touch me!" she yelled.

 "Is how you thank someone who just saved your life?"

 "Saving my life? Don't think I owe you one! You just wanted to hold my hand! That's why you saved me! You're such a creep!"

 "This isn't a joke! Think what you want, bat girl! I was saving the Master Emerald!" 

CLANG!

Knuckles woke up from that loud sound as he turned around to the Master Emerald to find Rouge the Bat lying there, facing him with a smile.

 "I was wondering when you'll waked up!" she said.

 "You again? Get off of the…..!" Knuckles finally noticed something. "Hey wait a minute! I'm the only one who can touch the emerald with my bare hands without getting shocked by it! How is it that you can touch it?"

 "I don't know! Guess I have a way with jewels!" she said as she got off.

 "Whatever! Trying to steal the emerald, again?"

 "If I wanted to, I would've done it at night!"
 "Good point."

 "And besides, is it a crime to just come by and say hi?"

 "I guess not."

 All was silent for them. Neither one of them didn't knew what to say. However, Knuckles refused to even look at her.

 "What's wrong with you?" Rouge asked. "Are you still upset on what I did?"

 "Can you blame me that I still don't trust you? I don't think you came here just to see me."

 "Well I did wanted to see you,…a little. But I also want to ask you if you can do a tiny little favor."

 "And what's that?"

 "Can I stay here in the island, please?"

 "WHAT?! WHY YOU WANNA DO THAT? WHAT ABOUT YOUR GOVERNMENT JOB?" he shouted. What was she trying to pull, he thought.

 "I quit that! Too much work for so little pay! And after that, I got envicted out of my apartment. I had no where else to turn except here."

 Hell no some girl would just come to his land and ask for the keys for a room. She was probably scheming to get the emerald again. Yeah that's it. She never quits. "What makes you think I'll let you stay here? I bet you're lying your way just to steal the emerald!"

 "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU, AFTER WHEN I GAVE YOU BACK YOUR STUPID EMERALD……!"

From a distance from them, Knuckles' friends, the Chaotix, watched their pointless argument, sighing on Knuckles throwing away his true happiness. They were a bit jealous that Knuckles have such a hot girl land on his lap like this. 

 "Man, Knuckles need to work on his social skills!" Charmy said.

 "I should smack him, if he scares away that foxy momma!" Vector said.

 "Yeah, he has a chance to have one hot babe on his lap, and he's blowing it away." Mighty said.

 "Will you two stop thinking with your….?" Espio said before he noticed some small hover pod slowly heading toward the emerald.

                              _______________________________________

Chapter 4-Oh look… The island has fallen again.

 Miles away from Angel Island, near Tails' workshop, Tails worked on some calculations for his future inventions with Sally's super advance computer, Nicole, while Amy sat right next to him on the cliff, over the ocean, thinking about the events that happened in the ARK.

 "Okay, Nicole! What would happen if I try it that way?" Tails asked the computer.

"The cyclone would not proceed in its maximum speed if to carry that much amount of parts." it said in a female voice.

 "Darn it!" As Tails was about to make another calculation, he noticed Amy looking depressed. This wasn't a Sonic-doesn't-notice-me depression that Tails daily experiences; this was different. "What's with you?"

"I'm just thinking about Shadow." She answered without turning away from the ocean view. Tails couldn't help but feel a ting of jealousy. Nah! Must be the chili dogs he ate. Yeah that's it. "It's so unfair he had to die like that! When I convinced him to help us, he mentioned someone named, Maria. Do you think she's someone he loved?"

 "I don't know, but it sounds to me you're starting to have feelings for Shadow!" Tails said with a wink.

 "I DO NOT!" Amy said as she blushed and snapped her head toward him.

 "Whatever. I don't think he died, though. When I seen him fall, he still was in his super form, despite that he had little energy. And he didn't seem like he fell through the orbit at all. It looked like he disappeared in that purple flash."

"So there is a chance he's still alive?"

"Most likely. But I'm more interested on how Sonic was able to use Chaos Control."

 "What's so interesting about that?"

 "Well, Shadow was bio genetically made, and was built to use the Chaos Control. And Sonic was able to use it, too. We don't know anything about Sonic's past, before that Eggman incident. I'm betting that Sonic is artificial just like Shadow!"

 "WHAT?!" Amy yelled. "How could you say that?"

 "I just did! My theory is that Sonic is actually Shadow's copy, created by someone who must of stolen the Project Shadow files and try to create his own ultimate life form: Sonic! I don't know. It's just a theory."

 "Well it doesn't matter what he is! He's still my Sonic!"

 "You mean Sally's Sonic. They're making out at my workshop!"

 "WHAT?! I'LL KILL HER!" she yelled while she took out her hammer and ran to the workshop.

 "Of course if I know Sonic, he'll be sleeping through the whole date, until Sally wakes him up with her own way."

 **********

 As Tails predicted, Sonic was snoozing like a baby on a beach chair on Tails' balcony. Sally was getting irritated, and did the one thing that'll wake him up:

 "SONIC! WAKE UP!!"

 Sonic woke with a surprise shock.

 "I'm up! You don't have to bust my ear drums!" he shouted. "Sorry, but you know I had a busy week!"

 "Yeah, I don't blame you." Sally said. Knowing the deal he made when he tried to help her convince her father to let her stay on Station Square, and then getting arrested by GUN, and then the whole ARK incident, yeah that would defiantly make someone tired.  

 "By the way, how did you know about the battle with Shadow? You weren't there!"

 "I watched the fight by using Tails' computer and Nicole to watch it through the GUN satellite, but enough about me, what do you wanna do today?"

 "Well after I take a long rest, how about we go to Twinkle Park?"

 "Sure, but can I rest with you?" Sally said as she moved close to the blushing Sonic for a kiss.

 "SALLY!!"

 The moment was spoiled when Amy voice screamed her name. Sally sighed as she looked down from the balcony to find her with a sour face and a hammer in her hand. She never quits, Sally thought. She doesn't just get that the relation Sonic and Amy has is a brother sister thing.

 "Amy, will you just leave us alone?" Sally asked even though she knew the answer.

 "No way! I'm staying right here to defend my man!" Amy shouted as she swung her hammer around. She wasn't giving up without a fight.

 "Fine then. You stay there while I get back to Sonic."

 "Girls?" Sonic asked but his voice wasn't heard.

 "You know what I mean! You come down here right now and we'll settle this once and for all!"

"Girls?"

"Are you saying you wanna fight? Have you lost it?"

"So you're a chicken squirrel, huh?"

"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME? I COULD KICK YOUR ASS FASTER THAN…"

"GGIIRRLLSSS!"

 Sonic finally got the arguing ladies to his attention as they both shouted: "WHAT?"

"I see Angel Island falling, again!"

The three looked toward the ocean to see the floating island hitting the ocean as it made huge waves.

 "What happened to it?" Amy asked. "Why did it fell again?"

 "One word: Eggman!" Sonic growled as he shook his fist. He knew every time the island falls, Robotnik has something to do with it.

 "We better get over there to make sure if Knuckles and his friends are okay!" Sally said.

 "I'll go get Tails and…." Amy said but was interrupted by Tails as he flew over her and said.

 "I'm already on it! Everybody get ready to board the Tornado! We're going back to Angel Island!"
       

(Flashback)

Here is what happened before the island fell to the sea. As Knuckles and Rouge argue like a married couple, the Chaotix spotted a large metal claw attached to the hover pod, as it slowly lowers to grab the emerald.

 "YOU ARE A STUBERNED LITTLE JURK!" Rouge yelled.

 "OH YEAH, BAT-GIRL! YOU'RE A PSYCHO PATH, FREAKIN LITTLE BI…!"Knuckles said before the Chaotix came and turned his head toward the emerald. "What are you …..?WHAT THE…?!"

 Knuckles finally noticed the hover pod grabbing the emerald.

 "What? Theif!" Rouge yelled at the thief.

 "Look who's calling…."

 "Don't even say it, Knuckles!"

 "Déjà vu!" Knuckles muttered. "Dr. Eggman!" This was just like when he first met Rouge. Robotnik swipes the emerald while they were arguing just like before. Note to self: next time, get Tails to put a high tech security system around the emerald.

 "That's Doctor Robotnik to you, you little organism!" Robotnik yelled as he pop his head over the hover pod and looked down at his foes. He was always called Eggman! In the ARK incident, he was called Eggman by everyone, but he decided to not let it bother him that time. But now he's tired of that. "You call your self a guardian? Turn your back away from the emerald just to argue with your little girlfriend!"

 "SHE IS NOT MY GIRLFRIEND!!" Knuckles yelled with blind rage. Why does everyone think he and Rouge is an item? Him and that thief? Yeah right!

 "The feeling is mutual." Rouge said, trying to hide the hurt ping she felt.

 "Well I'll just take this with me! Farewell, knucklehead!" Robotnik said as he started to take off.

 Knuckles glared at the doctor, with a look that Rouge somehow knew. This was just like the time when they first met, right when Eggman took the emerald from their hands. Knuckles had to destroy the emerald to prevent it from getting stolen. The look told her that Knuckles was gonna try it again, which he did. He took to the air and aimed his fist right for the emerald.

 "Not this time!" Robotnik said.

 Robotic snake like things came out of the hover pod, which Knuckles recognized, before they electrocuted him. They were the same ones that got Knuckles off the emerald, years ago, when Eggman tricked him to think that Sonic was the enemy.

 Knuckles got shocked, badly. His vision and hearing went all numb as he pummeled to the ground. Course it felt like he hit something softer then the ground. His vision was getting dark. All he could see and hear is Eggman getting away with the emerald and laughing. He also heard someone crying out his name, but he fainted before he could make out who cried for him.

 "Will he be all right?"

 "I'm sure he will. What did Eggman do to him?"

 "He shocked him with those electric snakes, dude!"

 "Just like before! Eggman is gonna pay for what he did to my friend!"

(Is that Sonic? Man its…good that he came! Can't make out who's talking.)

 "Don't worry, Sonic! Once Knuckles wakes up, will figure out a way finish off Robotnik once and for all!"

 "I hope he wakes up!"

(It sounds like someone really is concerned for me. I still can't tell who. My hearing…it's a bit messed up.)

 "Don't worry, babe! It'll take more then a little static to take out Knux here!" 

(Either that's Vector or Might, but sounds like a girl is concerned for me. Is it Amy? Sally? It has to be one of them. There's no way in hell Rouge would be worried about me…maybe in a cold day of…!)

 "KNUX, MAN! WAKE UP!"

 "VECTOR!!"

 Knuckles slowly opened his eyes to find all his friends, even Rouge, looking reified that he woke up. Of course Rouge looked like she didn't have a bit of concern on her face, which deep down, Knuckles was disappointed about that.

 "Hey guys!" Knuckles simply said.

 "Thank god you're all right!" Sally sighed as Sonic helped Knuckles up.

 "Eggman took you down bad! It was worse then last time!" Sonic said. "Good to see you all right!"

 Sonic and Knuckles shook hands like they did when they first met.

 "Yeah like old times!" Knuckles said. "By the way, when I was out I heard you saying that we'll finish off Eggman once and for all! Who suggested that?"

 "I did!" Sally said. "What Robotnik did to you was the last straw! We are gonna put an end to Dr. Ivo Robotnik, a.k.a: Eggman, for good!"

 The others cheered loud. Even Sonic was up for that.

 "So how do you guys think we should bust him up?" Vector asked.

 "Should I crack his egg-shaped skull?" Mighty asked while he cracked his knuckles.

 "NO! We are not gonna kill him!" Sally said. "We are going to bring him to justice!"

 This is what happens when you but a SatAM character in this story! It ruins the SegaSonic moment.  Ray thought off-character. The new look ain't gonna fool anybody.

[A/N: My version of Sally has a long fluffy tail, her eyes are shaped like Amy's, she doesn't wear that blue vest, and she has gloves kind of like Rouge except its clad is blue. The rest are the same.]

 "Okay, if we want success, I need all of your help. Sonic, Tails, Amy (Even her), Knuckles, Rouge, and the Chaotix!" Sally said.

 "You mean you're gonna have that thief help us?" Knuckles asked which angered Rouge.

 "She is, since after what she did for you!" Sally said up to Knuckles face.

 "So she gave back the emeralds, and helped us stopped the ARK. Big deal." Knuckles yelled.

 "You have no idea what she did for you. Besides, she has a jet to carry the rest, so like it or not, she's going!"

 "We'll use Knuckles ability to sense the emerald to find Eggman in whatever base he is in, and once that, I'll use the computer in the Tornado and Nicole to scan his base and come up with a way to get though!" Tails said.

 "…Leaving me and the crew to take out Eggman, for good!" Sonic yelled.

Chapter5- Open, thy say!

 Hours later, Sonic and his friends took the skies over the ocean to find Eggman with the help of Knuckles' ability to sense the emerald. With Sonic, Amy, Sally, Tails, and Knuckles on the Tornado, Rouge flew in her jet with the Chaotix as on board, much to her torture.

 "Yo, girl! Since that Knux doesn't take any slack with you, how about I take his place for you?" Vector flirt to Rouge before she punched him in the jaw.

 "Smooth, Vec!" Mighty sarcastically said as Vector struggled to get up.

 As the others in the back argue, Charmy, in his true size, noticed Rouge looking a bit depressed. "I take it you have some feelings for Knuckles, huh?"

 "What? No I don't!" Rough shouted while her cheeks showed a little pink.

 "Please. I was there when you cried for him when he was knocked cold and after you saved him from falling off the cliff!"

 This caused Rouge to blush even more.

 "Okay, so I do! But he doesn't trust me! All he cares about is that stupid emerald! Why the hell is that emerald so important to that idiot?"

 "Don't know." Charmy sighed. "He's the last of his kind (Him and Tikal, but she's sort of dead). He has no family, and I guess, besides to keep it from falling into the wrong hands and the fact that it keeps the island afloat, the emerald kind of makes him feel at home. Could you imagine living by yourself for all your life with no one to care for you?"

 "Oh..poor guy. He's an orphan." Rouge said with pity in her voice. "It still doesn't give him any right to keep his friends away just for that emerald!"

 "Get use to it! He never lets us touch it, for the fact it'll shock us except him." Charmy said as he laid back in his chair.

 "Yeah but, I touched it and nothing happened to me!" Rouge said.

 "Well that's weird."

 Back at the Tornado, Knuckles used his emerald senses to guide the group to Robotnik new base, if he has one. As Sonic and Knuckles rode on the wing, Tails pilot the plane, and Sally and Amy rode on the tail, Amy had one question to ask:

 "Are we there yet?" she whined.

 "NO! Stop whining!" Sally yelled.

 "Excuse me! At least I got your attention!"

 "For what?"

Amy hesitated, still trying to let what she heard from Tails sink in. "Well, I talked to Tails, and he thinks that Sonic isn't what we thought he is."

 "What? What does he mean?"

 "Well he thinks that…!" Amy was then interrupted by Knuckles when he yelled:

 "Guys! You are not gonna believe this! Look up ahead!"

 The group narrowed their eyes to see some flying thing. But it was so far they can't make it out. Sally took out Nicole and punched in a few commands, and faced her toward the object. Then a hologram of a familiar ship appeared above the small computer.

 "Oh god! It's the Egg Carrier!" Sally yelled.

 "THE EGG CARRIER?!" Sonic yelled. Sure Robotnik had a lot of flying fort

 "I thought we destroyed the first one, and Chaos destroyed the last one?" Knuckles asked.

 "Eggman can maybe make at least a dozens of these things, so it's no surprise! There not as hard to make like the Death Egg!" Tails said.

 As the two planes approached the Egg Carrier, they noticed it was hovering over the Oil Ocean Zone, a factory close to the South Island. They see large pipes connected from the Egg Carrier to the oil plant.

 "What's it doing?" Espio asked.

 "I guess this is where Eggman gets his oil from." Rouge said.

 "If he's using his Egg Carrier, then something must be up!" Charmy said.

On the top of the Egg Carrier, a huge laser cannon was planted on the spot where Sonic and Knuckles fought Chaos 6. Inside of it was the Master Emerald used as a battery. Robotnik watched, from a short distance from the cannon, as his E-100 series prepared the cannon.

 -"SIR THE CHAOS CANNON 2 IS READY FOR YOUR COMMAND!"- one of the robots said.

 "Excellent! Now release the oil pipes and prepare to position the Egg Carrier as I instructed!" he said.

 From that moment, the oil pipes went back in to the Egg Carrier and then the ship turned a little to the left.

 "What's it doing?" Sonic asked.

 "You got me!" Sally said.

 Then near the front of the Egg Carrier, something glowed green that Amy noticed.

 "Hey guys! There's something glowing green from Eggman's ship!" Amy said.

 "Gah! It's the Master Emerald! He's harnessing it, again! I can feel its pain!" Knuckles yelled as he held his head and kneel down.

 "The last time he did that, he used it for a super laser cannon to toast me!" Sonic said. He remembered being chased in the Death Egg by a huge robot with the Chaos Cannon, as it tried to blast him to ashes with it.

 "I wonder what is he…?" Tails said but was interrupted when the Egg Carrier shot a huge green blast to the Oil Ocean Zone!

 "What the heck? Is he trying to destroy that zone?" Sonic asked.

 Tails flew the Tornado close to the zone, as Rouge's jet followed. As he observed the zone from above, he noticed not a single plant destroyed, but the laser was still shooting at something that its rays were covering the entire zone.

 "It doesn't look like its causing any damage, but I still don't like the looks of this!" he said. "I can't quiet make what that energy ray is shooting! Sally, use Nicole to find out!"

 Sally faced Nicole toward the ray. After a few beeps, Nicole showed a hologram of a starpost.

 "A starpost?" Sally asked. "Why a starpost?"

 "The ray is increasing the starpost openings completely off the scale. The ray's energy could very well open a portal large enough to fit large objects like the Egg Carrier, for instance."

 At that moment, a gigantic warp ring appeared above the zone. It's larger than the Egg Carrier and the zone, combined.

 [A/N: For those of you SegaSonic fans, I know that a warp ring doesn't appear above the star-posts, but just humor me.] 

"Whoa, dude! Look at the size of that thing!" Vector yelled.

 At that moment, Tails voice was heard from Rouge's radio.

 "This is eagle fox calling dark bat! Eagle fox calling Dark bat!"

 Rouge picked up the radio and said: "Eagle fox? Dark bat?"

 "Sorry. Couldn't help myself! Do you see that giant warp ring?"

 "Its hard not miss it! Why is he doing this?"

 "He must be after the Chaos Emeralds we hid in the special zone! We're going after him, so you better follow us! The special zone can be pretty messy!"

 The Egg Carrier had made it to the other side of the warp, as did Sonic and his friends. As the heroes looked around, and below, they noticed they were above another land.

 "Is this the special zone?" Rouge asked from Tails' radio.

 "No way! The special zone looks like something from a painting! We're in another zone!" Tails said.

 "Who cares? Let's just get in the ship and get back my emerald!" Knuckles yelled. He just want to get this over with. He just can't stand hearing Rouge's voice. It was driving him crazy.

 Inside the bridge of the Egg Carrier, Robotnik had just entered in there as his robots piloted the ship.

 -"SIR, WE HAVE SUCESSFULLY ENTERED IN ZONE 109242! BUT RADAR HAD PICKED UP A GROUP OF LIFE FORMS ENTERED IN AS WELL!"-

 "Sonic! As I expected!" Robotnik said as he rubbed his hands together. "At least now I can have a little fun! Activate the cloaking mode! We don't want to get any attention from the natives. And fire guns at the accursed hedgehog!"

 At that moment, the Egg Carrier vanished before the heroes' eyes.

 "Look! The Egg Carrier disappeared!" Amy said as pointed to where the ship used to be.

 "No it's in a cloaking mode!" Tails said. "Did you see that, Sonic?"

 Sonic ignored Tails as he yelled: "Damn! This makes it harder for us to land on the Egg Carrier!"

 "I hate it when he doesn't listen to me!" Tails thought as he sighed. He does this so many times, like when they were on the Egg Carrier a few months ago.

 Without warning, a barrage of laser came forward, and hit the Tornado's wing and Rouge's jet tails.

 "AHH! WE'RE HIT!!" Tails yelled.

 "EVERYONE HOLD ON TIGHT!" Sally yelled.

 As the two planes fell through the clouds and into the land, screams from the heroes can be heard, but it was Sonic that can be heard the most when he screamed: "NOT AGAIN!!!"

 Chapter 6 – Wanted: hedgehog

 Morning has arisen in the Mushroom Kingdom. In Princess Peach Toadstool's castle, she and the Mario bros. are enjoying healthy breakfast.

 "Ahh! Now that's-a good ravioli!" Mario said as he lay back on his chair patting his full stomach.     

 "Yep! Egg ravioli! The breakfast for kings!" Luigi said doing the same as his brother.

"I can't believe you guys eat pasta mixed with eggs for breakfast!" Peach said as she ate her pancakes.

 "Yeah you're right, Peach!" Mario said. "Next time will eat lasagna pancakes! Yum, yum!"

 "Yuck!" Peach said as she stuck out her tongue. 

 "I wonder when Donkey Kong is gonna get here?" Mario asked. "He is supposed to be here for some bowling!"

 "Donkey Kong is coming over?" Peach asked.

 "Yeah! He is coming over for a vacation after guarding the Crystal Coconut and fighting K.Rool!" Luigi said. "And I think he's bringing his girlfriend with him."

 "Candy too? Great! Now we can have a triple date!" Peach cheerfully said.

 "Is there such a thing?" Luigi asked.

 "There is now!" Peach said. "Just think: The three heroes of the Mushroom World with their love ones at their side!" But then she realized what she said when Mario sat up and looked at her funny, which made her blush.

 "What did you say?" he asked.

 "Nothing!" Peach said, still blushing.

  In the main streets of Toad Town, Donkey Kong and his girlfriend, Candy, were walking to the castle as they were escorted by Yoshi.

 "Escorted by a dinosaur who can't even say a word besides his name. How embarrassing!" DK said.

 "Aw, come on! He's pretty cute!" Candy said.

 "Are you trying to make me jealous?"

 "Maybe!" she just loves it when her gorilla always steam with jealousy.

 Unknown to them, a mysterious figure watched them from an alley. His appearance couldn't be made because he was hidden in the shadows. All what could be seen is his blood red glowing eyes. Within a second, the figure dashed out of the alley, and ran over DK.

 "DK! Are you okay?" Candy asked with a concern as she helped him up.

 "I will be as soon as I smash who ever hit me!" DK growled.

 The people of the town were terrified at the attacker, but couldn't make out who he looks like cause he was running around the area too fast. Though Yoshi looks a bit dumb, he is defiantly not. With the anger he held after the attacker hurt his friend, he chased him while trying to grab him with his long tongue. But the attacker was moving too fast and he knock out the dino without warning.

 "YOSHI!" Candy cried.

 "Candy! Hide somewhere! I'll take care of this!" DK yelled.

As Candy hid behind a nearby pipe, DK spotted the attacker running around in a circle. It gave DK the time to attack as he charged at him.

 "BANANA  SLAMM…!" DK shouted but got extremely nailed in the face by the attacker.

 As the attacker escaped to the exit of the town, which leads to the Mushroom Way, Candy ran to DK's aide as he and Yoshi lied unconscious.    

 "DK! DK!...DONKEY KONG WAKE UP!" Candy cried as tears went down her face. If Donkey died right in front of her she won't know what to do. "WILL SOMEBODY HELP!"

 "Don't worry! We're here!" a faint voice said.

  As Candy turned around, she was a bit relieved when the Mario Bros. and Princess Peach came.

 "Toad informed us that somebody incredibly fast was causing havoc here!" Peach said.

 "I take it DK tried to stop him, huh?" Mario asked.

 "Yes! He tried but the guy was moving too fast for him! Yoshi tried too, but….YOU GOTTA SAVE HIM!" Candy cried.

 "Don't worry! We'll help him and Yoshi." Peach said as she took off the small jewel she wears on her chest. "Luigi, drag Yoshi over here!"

 As Luigi dragged Yoshi near DK, Mario noticed Peach switching her jewel for another one except the golden frame was shaped different.

 "What are you doing?" he asked.

 "Gonna do something I haven't done in a while since we fought Smithy!" Peach said.

 As the two bodies were close to each other, Peach's jewel glowed as she shouted: "GROUP HUG!"

 A blue beam from the jewel flashed the two unconscious. As the beam faded, DK and Yoshi slowly woke up.

 "Uh…what….hit….me?" DK said, groggily.

 "Y…Y….Yoshi!"

 "Thank god and Peach you're all right!" Candy sighed as she hugged him and kissed him. The kiss must of brought back all his strength as he bounced back up, but with a angry face.

 "Where's that punk? I'LL KILL HIM!!"

 "He went to the exit, but…!" Candy said but DK didn't let her finish as he ran after him.

 "Come on, Luigi! We better go after him before he hurts himself, again!" Mario said.

 As the plumbers followed DK, Peach went up to Candy as she asked: "Hey Candy, do you know what the attacker looked like?"

 "I don't know! He was moving so fast in a….in a…black blur."

Somewhere in Mushroom Way, Sonic the Hedgehog lied motionless in a patch of flowers. A small little gomba walked along the flower patch, smelling the flowers, until she spotted him.

 "What the..? Who's that?" she asked herself.

 She moved in closer to Sonic and looked at him, closer.

 "I never had seen anyone like him before."

 She tapped him on the head with her foot, but didn't work.

 "Great! First Mario now this! Come on, mister! Wake up!"

Finally, Sonic opened his eyes. As he did, he saw a vision of the little gomba.

 "GAH! WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU?!" Sonic yelled as he jumped up.

 "Uh…I'm a gomba!" she said as she sweatdropped.

 "A what?" he never heard one of those on Mobius.

 "A Gom-Ba! You aren't from around here, are you?"

 "No I'm not." Sonic said as he calmed down.

 "Are you from Congo Island? Spiral Mountain?"

 "No, I'm from Mobius!"

 "Never heard of it!"

Sonic finally noticed his surroundings as he massaged his head.

 "Where am I?" he asked.

 "This is the Mushroom Way. And you're standing on my favorite flower patch!" she yelled.

 "Oh, sorry!" Sonic said as he got off the patch. "Nice flowers, though. I think I'll give one to Sally."

 "Careful. They're not just any flowers!" the gomba said as Sonic pick up a flower.

 "I'm pretty sure they are! Say, have you seen anyone like a two tailed fox, a pink hedgehog in a red dress, a squirrel with beautiful eyes?" Sonic asked but sighed happily when he mentioned Sally. "..or a bat with huge…?"

 "No I haven't!"

 "Well I better go look for them!" he said as he put the flower in his glove.

 "Maybe I should go with you. Mushroom Way is crawling with creeps and monsters!" the gomba said.

 "Ha! They don't know what this hedgehog can do!" Sonic smirked. He faced an army of robots, an evil mad scientist, a gullible fist fighting echidna, robotic and bioorganic hedgehogs, destroyed a killer space station, and defeated two powerful beast. How hard can little monsters be?

 "Really? And what's your name?"

 "I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog!"

 "My name's Gombaria!" [A/N: I don't really know what Gombario's sister's name is. Please tell me if any of you readers know]

 "Glad to meet you! Now let's get a move on!"

 Somewhere in the Mushroom Way, Donkey Kong searched across the forest for the guy that attacked him. He was so steamed; all he could think is how to crush the guy for mercy. Between areas of trees, he spotted Sonic walking with Gombaria (Yeah I know. Weird that he's walking). DK studied Sonic and tried to compare him with the attacker. It was a blur to him, but all he could make out is that the attacker had spiky hair just like Sonic. Then it hit him.

 "Found you!"

"So you're from another planet?" Gombaria asked.

"Yeah! We followed a creep of ours named Dr. Ivo Robotnik, but we call him Eggman, but he shot us out of the sky. My friends are probably lost in this forest For some reason, Eggman seems to be interested in your world."

"This is terrible! We had our fill with Bowser and Smithy! Now we have to deal with a mad scientist?"

 "Don't worry! We'll….!"

 "DON'T YA MOVE, SPIKE ASS!"

 Sonic and Gombaria stopped when Donkey Kong jumped in front of them and eyed Sonic with a scary look, though Sonic almost laughed while looking at his goofy face.

 "You are gonna get a serious whooping for humiliating me!" DK shouted.

 "Have we met?" Sonic asked.

 DK charged at Sonic, but Sonic grabbed Gombaria and dashed out of the way. After Sonic put her in a safe place, he hit DK with a Sonic Spin and send him flying to some bushes. Sonic went back to Gombaria when she just gathered all her gatherings. She noticed DK lying in some bushes. She was a bit confused on what happened.

 "How did he..?" she asked.

 "! I nailed the creep after I got you out of the way in one seconds. Gotta have a quick eye when you're around me."

 "Whoa! You're fast!"

 "Please! I could have done that under a second, but he caught me off guard!"

 "WOW!...Of course , no offense, but you probably wouldn't be a match against Mario!"

 "Who?"

 "Uh…..him!" she said as she pointed at something behind Sonic.

 As he turned around, he spotted Mario running toward him as he was about to throw a punch. Sonic grabbed Gombaria and got away from him. As he stopped a distance from Mario, Sonic kept an eye on him as he asked Gombaria: "Yo, who the hell is he?"

 "That's Mario! He's the hero of this world and a friend of mine!"

 "Let her go, right now!" Mario shouted.

 "He's not kidnapping me, Mario. He's a friend of mine!" Gombaria yelled.

 "Gombaria! He attacked Toad Town and Donkey Kong here!" Mario yelled. "Whatever he said to you is a lie!"

 "What are you talking about? I didn't attack any town!" Sonic yelled. Unless Eggman sent something like Metal Sonic to frame me! After he thought of that, he put a hand on Gombaria's head and said: "Gombaria, I gotta run! I think you'll be safe with these clowns if they're your friends."

 As Sonic ran, Mario pulled out a Pow block and smashed it. As he did, he caused an earthquake that caused Sonic to lose balance and slow down. Mario quickly jumped forward and stomped Sonic on the head which made him kiss the floor. As Sonic was seeing stars, Luigi and DK grabbed Sonic and tied him up in ropes.

  "All right, that was easy!" Mario said as he gave a thumbs up. "Let's bring him to the princess and she'll decide what to do with him."

 But then without warning, Sonic seemed to be rising from DK's shoulder. Luigi watched with wide eyes.

 "WHOA! He's got some kind of magic or something!" he shouted.

 "No he doesn't, wedgie! Look higher!"  Mario said as he pointed to Tails as he grabbed Sonic away from DK's grip.

 As Tails got Sonic away from them, DK chased after him, but was nailed in the face by Knuckles.

 "Not a step closer!" he shouted as he ran to Sonic and guard him from Mario and the group.

 Sonic just came to, but was a bit woozy. "Tails? Knuckles? Jeez I got a major headache!" he groaned.

  "Here, Sonic! Eat this!" Tails said as he gave him a red mushroom.

 "But I don't like mushrooms!"

 "JUST EAT IT!"

 As Sonic ate it, he felt all his pain and wounds heeling.

 "Taste like pizza! I feel a little bit better." He said as he got up.

 "For some reason, the mushrooms, in this world, have the power to heal. I found that out when I was hungry!" Tails said. "Now lets get out of here!"

 "No way, Tails! This fat punk needs to learn some manners!" Sonic yelled.

 "Not when I give you some, porcupine!" Mario yelled.

 "I'M A HEDGEHOG, YA FAT B@STARD!"

 "I'm with you, Sonic!" Knuckles said as he cracked his knuckles. "You know I got your back against King Kong here!"

 "I know I am the king, but the name is Donkey Kong!" he yelled.

 "And what about you, you fox freak?" Luigi yelled.

 "WHAT?! YOU ASK FOR IT, MUSTAHCE FACE! LETS GET THEM, SONIC!" Tails yelled.

 "Yeah! You're about to see why they call me Sonic the Hedgehog, bud!" he said as but up his fist.

 "They don't call me Super Mario for nothing, kid!" he said as he cracked his knuckles.

As the two teams eyed each, all was quite. Wind blew loud in their faces, as the sun shined bright above the forest. And Gombaria stood there, helplessly, as she is about to witness the biggest fight the two teams are gonna face. Sonic vs. Mario. Tails vs. Luigi. Knuckles vs. Donkey Kong. As the wind faded, Sonic and Mario raised a pointed finger at each other as they shouted:

 "ATTACK!!"
