Well, how do you like the first few chapters? Please R+R. As for a
disclaimer--
*some guy walks in* Guy: Mistercow is in no way affiliated with SEGA or Sonic Team. He does not own Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles, Rouge, Tails, Amy, Big, or Froggy. He DOES own Ultima, though.
Uh... yeah. Enjoy!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ "BIIIIGGG!!!" Rouge screamed. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!" "Uh, looking for Froggy," he said sheepishly. "YOU'RE WASTING THE POWER OF THE CHAOS EMERALDS! LIKE YOU'LL ACTUALLY BE ANY HELP! YOU FIGHT WITH A DAMN FISHING POLE! YOUR STUPID FROG WOULD PROBABLY DO BETTER!!!"
Everyone else looked pretty annoyed. Big started to cry. "Oh, brother..." said Shadow, disgusted.
Super Big's fur was silver, and stuck out further than before. Super Amy's fur was gold, and her bangs stuck out further than before. Super Rouge's fur was silver, and longer than before.
"Ah, what's done is done," said Sonic. "But you'd better help us, Big!" Big nodded. "But what do we do with the Chaos Emeralds?" asked Tails. "If we take them with us, Chaos Ultima will absorb their power. But if we leave them here, Ultima'll just come take them.
"I know," said Sonic, smiling. He put the Emeralds in the space transporter, sent them back up to ARK, and then blew up the transporter.
"You idiot!" Shadow yelled. "Now we can't get them! If Ultima finds out they're up there, he'll fly right up and get them!"
"There's another transporter on the edge of town. It'll only take me a few seconds to run there. I can get up to ARK before him."
Shadow wasn't convinced, but he was willing to go along with it. "All right," Amy growled. "Let's get that freak."
The seven heroes flew off to greet Ultima. "Yo!" Sonic yelled. "Metal head!" Ultima turned to Sonic. The other six flew in from behind to attack. Knuckles and Rouge lunged for his head, Shadow and Tails attacked his side, and Amy slammed him in the back with her Piko Piko Hammer. Big wasn't quite sure what to do, so he just flew up and punched him.
But to everyone's surprise, Super Froggy jumped off Big's shoulder and started biting Ultima. "You show 'em, buddy!" Big encouraged.
Meanwhile, Sonic was darting all around Ultima, dodging his blows. He rammed into him occasionally, to infuriate him further. But once while Sonic was attacking him, Ultima changed his hand into a weight weighing roughly 5 tons. He smashed Sonic with it, catching him off guard. He flew down and smashed almost a quarter of a mile through the ground. "SONIIIC!" Amy yelled.
"Don't worry, Amy," Sonic said weakly, somehow managing to smile. "Just concentrate on fighting."
But with Sonic currently incapacitated, Ultima could worry about his attackers at the back. First, he blasted Shadow with a laser cannon. He smashed down into a rock wall. Ultima promptly smashed him with the weight, and threw a grenade at him.
By the time the grenade exploded, Shadow was in a pretty sorry state. His whole body was one big bruise. But as if that weren't enough, Ultima went and stepped on him.
Rouge gasped. From her perspective, Shadow looked dead. She sped down to see. She put her head to his chest. Miraculously, he was still breathing. But he wouldn't be for long. Rouge summoned the energy of the Chaos Emerald within her to create a protective force field so Shadow could recover. She could think of one thing to heal him—the Chaos Emeralds. Without sparing it a second thought, she blasted straight off into space.
But before she left, she left Ultima a present. It was a kiss-bomb. It became a powerful nuclear explosion (because of her Super form). She was about to grab the Chaos Emeralds inside the ARK, when she saw records of Ultima, sitting on the table. "Hmm..." she thought. "Maybe it'll say some kind of weakness in here." She flipped quickly through the book.
She made a startling discovery—that Ultima was a cyborg. If his outer armor were removed, he would lose most of his weapons, his resiliency, and his robotic brain. He would become an instinctive, mindless beast. Unfortunately, the one thing it didn't say was how the armor could be removed.
She realized that she had forgotten about Shadow. She grabbed the Emeralds and flew down to Earth, and went directly into Shadow's shield. Ultima wouldn't be able to absorb the Emeralds' power from in here.
Rouge got to Shadow in his last few moments. She quickly absorbed the Emerald's power into her hand. She touched her hand to Shadow, releasing healing power into his almost-dead body.
"R-Rouge?"
"Shhh. It's okay."
"But where is Ultima? Why aren't I dead?"
"Ultima is still out there, fighting the others. I healed you with the power of the Chaos Emeralds. Don't worry—Ultima can't absorb their power from in here."
"What!?" Shadow exclaimed, looking out through the shield, the shimmering waves of energy distorting his vision. "Everyone else has been felled!"
"What?" Rouge yelled. She looked out and saw to her horror that Shadow was right.

While Rouge was on ARK, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Big were losing badly. As Sonic was trying to lift himself out of the crater, Ultima blasted him with a laser cannon and a grenade. The explosions caused the dirt surrounding Sonic to cave in, trapping him. He could destroy some of it with energy waves, but he didn't have enough energy. He destroyed just enough dirt and rock to create breathing room, and then he lost consciousness and his Super form.
Knuckles and Big had been punching Ultima in the back, when he extended a jetpack, and burned his attackers with the flame.
It didn't hurt them badly, but it stunned them enough that Ultima could shoot them and smash them into the ground. Tails was darting all around Ultima's head, whacking him with his tails. Ultima reached up and grabbed one of Tails' tails as he was hitting him with it. Ultima smashed Tails into a rock several times, and drove him into the ground.
Big managed to get up, but he was afraid of heights, so he merely stood on the ground, punching Ultima's foot. Froggy was flying all around, spitting out laser beams at Ultima. Ultima reached out and grabbed Froggy, and squeezed. Froggy was literally close to bursting. Ultima slammed Froggy down to the ground. Big watched, horrorstruck. He didn't even try to defend himself as Ultima pounded him into the ground.
Amy had been fighting furiously—darting around on all sides, smashing Ultima with her hammer. But as she saw her friends fall one by one, she became blinded in rage, and just began slamming him wherever. Whenever Ultima tried to smack her, she just blocked it with her hammer. But he eventually faked her out; he pretended to whack her head so she would try to block that, then he blasted her with a laser down low. He proceeded to beat upon her almost to death. He then threw her down into a nearby lake.
She lost her Super form, and she knew she would die. She didn't have enough strength left to make it to the surface. She began to think about Sonic.
She remembered all the times she had told Sonic to wait up. But she realized something—Sonic didn't need to slow down for her. She needed to speed up for him. She really couldn't fight as well as him. Why would he love her? She wasn't good enough for him. Her last thought was, 'I'm sorry, Sonic,' and then she passed out.
Knuckles saw Amy go down. He knew she would never survive. He was very weak, but still Super. He flew down to get her, but he found Ultima waiting for him upon his return. Ultima stepped on him. Knuckles knew that that assault would surely kill un-Super Amy, so he shielded her from the blow. But with this, he too became normal, and unconscious.
The heroes were in a bad position. They began to lose all hope—at least those that were conscious.
