The crowds were gone. The friends had gone home. Sonic, Manic and Sonia where the only ones present as they made their way home. This, of course, didn't stop Sonic from bragging.

"Hah! Did you guys see the look on Shadows face when that photo developed and it showed me in the lead?"

"You do know this means that next time Tails is done modifying the light shoes, they'll be faster than you?" Asked Sonia.

"Not if you look at it this way. While Shadow's sittin' naked in a beanbag chair eatin' Cheetos, I'm gonna' be runnin' around the backyard gettin' faster! See, the light shoes are only part of what makes up Shadows speed. He thinks that it doesn't matter how slow he gets as long as the light shoe get faster. He'll never beat me if he keeps thinkin' that way and even if he does it'll be Tailses machines that do it, not Shadow."

"Wow, Sonic! You've really got this figured out!" Sonia replied.

"Thanks, ya think so?"

"Nope."

Manic was in the back ground, laughing at the conversation his friends were having.

"Incompetent words amuse me," he had once said.

They finally reached their house.

"Guys, why is our door busted down?" Asked Manic. The trio dashed inside to see a wrecked building. A once beautiful vase was knocked over, dirt and flowers spilled onto the floor. A painting that had once added beauty to their home was now thrown to the ground and torn. Furniture was thrown over and ripped open and in the midst of the destruction was a fat man in a red suit holding their unconscious mother under one arm. No, you idiot, it's not Santa Clause. It was the globally known threat to society, Doctor Robotnik!

"Eggman I don't know what you're up to, but you better get the heck away from my mom!" Cried Sonic as the triplets crouched into a fighting position.

"Meet me in Atlantis, and then maybe I'll give her back," he said as he walked slowly towards the device he called the "EGG walker."

"What the crud are you talking about?" Demanded Manic.

"You should know. It's your kingdom."

Sonic leapt towards Eggman. Eggman pulled a knife out of his pocket and held it against his mothers' throat.

"You take her… and I will kill you," said Sonic.

"I'd like to see you try."

"I'd like to see me succeed."

Eggman stepped into his walker, the engines kicked in and he flew off laughing maniacally.

"What do we do?" Asked Sonia.

"We go to Tails. If anybody can figure out what he meant by 'Atlantis' and 'your kingdom,' it's him. Fight a genius with a genius. Manic, get on your phone. Call our friends and tell them to meet us there."

(Next time on Sonic Undersea!

"Say hello to," cried Tails dramatically, " the turbo sub!"

Shadow would like to point out that as Sonic said this, he was not sitting naked in a beanbag chair eating Cheetos. They were Pringles, and he had socks on.
