Sonic adventure 2: A shadow's memory
Chapter 7 - They didn't believe Eggman's threat
I wouldn't believe your radio
The next day Tails and Amy hid in the city. Sonic spoke to them over the radio.
"Man the city is swarming with GUN robots. Tails any luck finding the chaos emeralds?" asked Sonic.
"For some reason I'm not getting a signal from the remaining chaos emeralds. Perhaps Eggman took them into outer space", said Tails.
"Outer space", Said Amy.
Suddenly the manhole cover under their feet began to move. Knuckles appeared from the sewers.
"Hey, it's Knuckles", Said Amy
"Hey guys, what's up?" asked Knuckles.
"We're busy trying to find Eggman. He's threatening to blow up the Earth!" said Tails.
"What?" said Knuckles.
"Hey sonic, I'm getting a weird energy signal. Perhaps Eggman is talking directly to the president. If I can intercept that call perhaps we can find out where Eggman is", Said Tails.
"Then go do it Tails", Said Sonic. With that Tails drove off in the Cyclone's car mode.
"Not Again!" said Amy.

Meanwhile in the Presidents limo.
"Mr. President the country is in turmoil. This is a national crisis", Said the president's secretary
"Spare me the details. Just what is it that you want, Dr. Eggman?" asked the president.
"My demands are quite simple. Surrender to the Eggman empire and make no attempt to resist, otherwise…" Said Eggman over a satellite link.
"Otherwise?" asked the president.
"Otherwise your country will cease to exist you have 12 hours remaining", replied Eggman.
"No way!" shouted Sonic from the side of the limo.
"What the?" said the President as Sonic and Tails jumped into the limo through the sunroof.
"Eggman empire, yeah right!" said Sonic.
"Sonic, you!" shouted Eggman in rage.
"Got it Tails?" asked Sonic.
"I got it, he's transmitting from the space colony ARK", said Tails.
"Then lets get moving", said Sonic. Sonic and Tails then proceeded to jump through the roof.
"Hey you wait!" shouted the president.
"Mr. President we're receiving an incoming call from our agent", said the president's secretary.
Sonic and Tails climbed back in the cyclone.
"So all we have to do is get up to Ark. Erm any ideas how?" asked Sonic.
"Well he had to get up there himself. Perhaps there's another base somewhere on Earth. But where?" Asked Tails.
"Hey Sonic, Tails. Knuckles has something important info", said Amy over the Radio.
"Yeah I saw Eggman in the desert. He went into a pyramid. Perhaps that's his base", Said Knuckles, "It's also where we'll find that thieving Batgirl"
"Who?" asked Sonic
"I'll tell you all about it on the way to the desert", said Knuckles.
Meanwhile back on ARK. Eggman was hitting everything he could find.
"Damn him. Sonic'll ruin everything!" said Eggman
"Well that was impressive, we managed to create total havoc on the planet. We should be ruling it in no time", Said Rouge, "hey what's wrong?"
"Our threat fell on deaf ears", Said Shadow, "and at this rate it'll take too long for the cannon to recharge. To unleash it's full potential we need the last chaos emerald"
"Where have you been? What happened to that last Chaos emerald? Don't forget your part of the deal," said Eggman in a pure rage.
"Come on you aren't doubting me already. I found this", said Rouge holding up a newspaper article.
"Huh. Station square saved from a life threatening missile attack. The city gave its prize possession the yellow chaos emerald to the savour of station square. Miles Prower better known as Tails received the emerald for preventing the detonation of Dr. Eggman's missile, which didn't explode when it landed somewhere on the Speed Highway", said Eggman, "Well this changes everything. All we need to do is get the emerald of Tails. Rouge, Shadow you go back and capture the fox"
"Right away", Said Rouge.
"Soon enough…Maria", Said Shadow.
Maria huh? Who could she be?
Later on Earth Rouge found Tails flying towards the desert. She was driving in her car, painted white and sort of designed around her own body.
"I see something in the air. It could be him. Hey foxboy wait for me", Said Rouge following him.

"Have you found Tails yet?" asked Eggman
"Oh wait a minute, be quiet. Just leave it to me", Said Rouge, "ah there you are. I found you foxboy", Said Rouge catching up with the Tornado 2. She followed him to the pumpkin hill area.
"Shadow, they're coming into your area. Spotted in that blue plane", said Rouge over a radio.
"Copy that, I'm in pursuit", said Shadow falling onto the nearest Rail.
Action stage: Sky Rail (Shadow)
Shadow followed them to the end of the Sky Rail area.
"Doctor they're heading straight for us", said Shadow.
"Then just leave it to me, I'll take care of them", Said Eggman over the radio.
Big was also in this area at the time.
"Well there's Shadow, and look, Sonic and Tails' plane. Something big is about to happen. I best follow them", Said Big before proceeding to do so.
Later outside Eggman's base, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy looked towards a pyramid.
"Inside that pyramid?" asked Sonic.
"Yes, I saw Eggman enter that pyramid and more importantly I saw that Batgirl enter it as well", said Knuckles.
"Tails how long do we have left?" asked Sonic.
"At least 10 hours", replied Tails.
"Well come on. Whatever he's doing we'll put a stop to it", Said Sonic.
"Yeah!" shouted everyone.
"I'll go find the entrance", said Tails

Big watched on as always, from the outskirts. He picked up a radio,
"General, this is Big reporting from the desert. I have followed Sonic's team to Eggman's base. Looks like they're preparing an assault on his Base, in an attempt to maybe get up to Ark via a spaceship or a transporter," Said Big
"Excellent work agent Big", Said the General
