Hello everyone, and welcome to the remaster of THA 2.

This is as much of a remaster as it is a retelling, as the original THA 2 was… spotty at best with it's storytelling.

Then again, 8 years have passed and now I have a better idea of what I'm doing now.

So, I hope you enjoy the revisiting/remastering of THA 2. Enjoy the show!

Prologue

It was a mere 3 months since the events of the Egg Cup, and things have normalized throughout Station Square and the world after Eggman's brutal defeat in the Shootout of the Championship for the aforementioned cup.

But now… Eggman has decided that now's the time to go back on the offensive.

"That damn fox… humiliating me in front of tens of thousands… I've been waiting for this day to arrive, to start plotting out my revenge!" Eggman said, furious as he relived the humiliation of that day in his base.

Orbot and Cubot looked at each other silently, knowing that their boss is serious again.

"With these gems in hand, I should be able to "convince" Tails and his pesky friends to try to stop me once again, and so I can get my revenge! HAHAHA!" Eggman continued to monologue as he burst into his trademarked laugh.

Suddenly, the gems began to glow, much to the delight of Eggman. What would happen… was not what he was expecting.

A deep, colorful fog begun to consume Eggman's base, as his laughter turned into coughing.

"W-what is the m-meaning of this!?" Eggman said, hacking away as he tried to wave off the fumes of the gems.

Several humanoid figures suddenly materialized from the gems, as the fog subsided and Eggman's coughing slowly came to a halt.

"Uh… where are we?" A silver-haired woman said, with her being joined by 6 other women beside her as they all looked around confusingly.

"I have no clue, Silvia. If my guess is right, we're in an alternate dimension…" Another woman said, having purple hair as the figures came into view for Eggman.

And all Eggman could do was laugh. And attract the attention of the women in question.

"EXCELLENT! The summoning was successful! Now then, ladies. I am Dr. Eggman and I brought you to this dimen-" Eggman started to say before being cut off.

"Wait a minute, you're Eggman? Ladies, let's scram, quick!" Silvia said as the ladies took their leave quickly, using the confusion to get out of Eggman's base as soon as humanly possible.

Eggman was frozen in place, with a face that screamed "What the hell just happened?" for the few minutes it took him to process the situation.

And when he came to, he became furious, smashing his desk where the gems used to sit.

"STUPID! WOMEN! RUNNING! OFF! LIKE! THAT! ARGH!" Eggman said, saying each word with emphasis as he continued to slam his desk in frustration.

And elsewhere, someone else picked up on the sightings of the new women…

"So… she's arrived with her crew… Just who I was expecting to show up!" A mysterious woman said, concealing herself with a cloak as she looked at the women in question.

She then quickly grabbed the silver-haired woman known as Silvia, and ran off without the others noticing.

"Yes… You'll be perfect for my scheme… Now to attract some… attention to the situation at hand…" The mystery woman said, with Silvia in tow.

As she walked away, she stepped on an old flier for the Egg Cup from months ago. And that gave her the idea she was looking for.

"Perfect… Now time to set up my own tournament and coerce my mineral rivals to partake…" She said, as she smirked deviously through her cloak.

Now Tails and friends are going to get swept up in another adventure on the hockey rinks, except… the stakes will be higher.

Will they save Station Square and the world again?

Or will they become the instruments to it's altered future and "fate"?
