"But through a glass darkly…"

Abandoned Power Plant:

Rouge quickly ran in as the doors slammed shut behind her, "Wait till you guys get a look at this!"

Shadow calmly turned towards Rouge while Eggman looked up from the robot he was working on, Shadow walked over to Rouge, "What is it?"

Eggman came over and looked over Rouge's shoulder, "So, what have you got here for us Rouge?"

Rouge opened up the paper to the first page and lifted it so the Shadow and Eggman could see, "Recognize somebody?"

Shadow and Eggman stepped back in surprise, "I don't believe it!"

Space Colony Ark (Abandoned Lab):

Ivo bent down carefully and picked up the disc on the ground, "What? You're right, it really looks like my grandfather's diary, but what would it be doing here, huh?"

Shadow stepped forward, "What is it?"

Ivo looked towards the console, "The disc seems different for some reason, Shadow. I'm going to see if I can use the console to read the disc."

Shadow looked at Ivo, "Are you sure this is the time to review old memories Ivo?"

Ivo carefully put the disk into the console, "If I'm right Shadow, this disc may help us figure out what's happening here…"

Old Airfield:

Sonic yawned as he sat up in an old bed that had been left upstairs in the old air terminal, *I just don't get why this place looks like Tails didn't live here, I guess it's a good thing that someone used to though. I wonder, maybe all this has something to do with that wave thing that hit us.* That's when Sonic's nose picked up on something coming from downstairs, "Hey, something smells pretty good".

When Sonic got down stairs he found Amy using a small portable stove to cook something while Tails helped a rabbit he didn't recognize set up some plates and plastic silverware on a fold-up table, "Hey Tails, when did you get back?"

Tails turned his head towards Sonic as he put down a plate, "Hi Sonic, I got back awhile ago, this is Cream, she's a new friend I bumped into at the grocery store."

Sonic turned to Cream, "Nice to meet you Cream."

Cream put the silverware she had on the table and curtsied, "It's a pleasure to meet you Mister Sonic"

Sonic sweatdropped, *Mister?!*

Abandoned Power Plant:

There staring up at Shadow and Eggman from the front page of the paper was a picture with the caption "Prof. Ivo Robotnik speaks at seminar on Advanced Robotics and Basic A.I."

Shadow looked up from the paper and looked at Rouge, "Is it just me or does the one in the picture look thinner?"

Eggman grabbed at the paper, "Give me that."

Rouge snickered, "I'd say that's something important."

Eggman began to flip through the paper, he stopped on about the second page, "Oh Rouge, you might want to look at this."

Rouge came up and looked at the article Eggman was looking at, "Well, well, I didn't see that one."

Shadow came up behind Rouge, "What is it?"

The article was on Detective Rouge Bat.

Space Colony Ark (Abandoned Lab):

Ivo was beyond all feeling, while Shadow wanted at that moment to do nothing more than find a quite corner and lose his lunch, breakfast and yesterday's supper.

Shadow had been right about the disk being Ivo's grandfather's diary, and yet it wasn't.

The entries in the diary never happened and when they exited the diary something came up onto the screen that they never expected, the last words of Eggman's Professor Gerald Robotnik.

Just as Ivo ejected the disk and shut down the console, the Colony came back to life.

Maria was just about ready to faint, she had been looking around the lab, wondering how on Neo-Terra it could be so much like her grandfather's when Ivo and Shadow found the disc, hearing that she was dead made her feel like someone was walking on her grave.

The three were just standing there as the radio in Ivo's pocket came to life, "Ivo, Shadow, can any of you hear me?"

Ivo shook his head then grabbed the radio, "This is Ivo, what is it?"

"Sir, there's these things, there all over the place, we need help, Now! (Gunshot's and Laser Fire) Watch your back."

They quickly came to their sense with that, Maria quickly turned to Shadow, "Shadow you should get down there and help them, Ivo, we'll head back to the sub, you need to find out what on Neo-Terra we just saw, I'm going to try to find a way to explain this to the department heads."

Ambrosia's Camp:

Ambrosia was not a happy hedgehog, she rubbed her temples as she spoke "What do you mean 'I don't know what that light was boss.' I gave you the order to find out what that was and how it may affect our plans and all you come back with is 'I don't know'."

The ferret cowered as Ambrosia got up and casually grabbed the handle of her hammer, "It's not my fault, the media doesn't have a clue and G.U.N. is keeping what they know so tightly under wraps that all my high clearance contacts know is that something is known, if they pried any further they'd be exposed and useless to us in the long run."

As Ambrosia walked around the ferret she leaned in close to one ear, "You know, you're right, they would be useless if exposed (She steps back) but I can't let your failure go unpunished…"

The ferret felt his leg break before he even realized what had happened, "…so consider that a warning, the next time you fail, it'll be your arm, then your chest, and if you survive that your head, got it?"

The ferret nodded as he painfully remained standing, Ambrosia opened the tent's flap, "Get a medic in here for our friend's leg, I've got some private business to take care of."

The guard nodded and called for a medic as Ambrosia walked out into the camp. All the camp was, was number of tents and three plain huts, it was the smallest of the three huts that Ambrosia was headed for.

Ambrosia motioned for the guards to step aside as she approached the hut, the shadowed figure inside looked up as she opened the door to the hut, "And how are you today brother dearest?"
