Espio continued to inspect the note to get a possible culprit out of the handwriting.
"Hmmm..." Espio mumbled.
"Well?" The manager asked.
"I got nothing. I've never seen this handwriting before." Espio concluded.
The manager sighed. "Don't worry, sir. We'll just ask around Station Square to see if we can get leads on our culprit." Charmy assured the manager.
"Charmy's right. Maybe there are some people who might recognize this handwriting." Mighty added.
"Okay then. We're counting on you, Chaotix Detective Agency. You must find out who's behind all of this." The manager told the Chaotix.
"Don't worry, sir. We will not disappoint you." Vector told the manager as he, Espio, Charmy and Mighty left the museum to ask some civilians about the note.
Meanwhile, on the streets of Station Square...
Sonic, Tails and Knuckles were combating the Cop Speeders. Sonic Homing Attacked into the Cop Speeders, Tails shot at them with his blaster, and Knuckles beat the Cop Speeders up with his fists.
"Let's get them, guys!" Sonic called as he continued to Homing Attack into the Cop Speeders.
"Way ahead!" Tails replied as he continued to blast the Cop Speeders with his blaster.
"Leave enough room for my fists!" Knuckles added as he continued to punch the Cop Speeders. Eventually, the Cop Speeders were all defeated.
"Was that all of them?" Tails asked.
"I don't think so, Tails, because there's Egg Fighters with swords coming at us, as well as Egg Launchers." Knuckles pointed out as the sword wielding Egg Fighters and Egg Launchers were approaching.
"No problem! We can take this too!" Sonic said as he engaged the Egg Fighters and Egg Launchers in combat. Tails and Knuckles engaged them as well as the fight continued. As the fight continued, the citizens of Station Square were watching from a distance, filming the fight on their phones. The Station Square Police Force was keeping the crowd at a safe distance so that they wouldn't get hurt in combat. Among the crowd was none other than Amy Rose herself, who was also watching the fight take place.
"Get them, boys! You can do it!" Amy called, cheering the boys on as they engaged the Eggbots in combat. Sonic wasn't pleased when he heard Amy's voice.
"Great, Amy's here too..." Sonic sighed.
"Just keep your focus on the battle, Sonic. That's the best you can do right now." Knuckles told Sonic.
"You're right, Knuckles. Just gotta keep my focus on the battle." Sonic said, agreeing with Knuckles' statement as he continued to fight the Eggbots. Eventually, all the Eggbots were taken out. Soon after, Dr. Eggman himself came down in his Eggmobile. On the sides of the Eggmobile were two sidecars for Orbot and Cubot to sit in.
"Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!" Eggman laughed as he came down in his Eggmobile.
"Look, it's Eggman!" Tails said.
"You did a great job on my Eggbots, Sonic and Company! But will you stand a chance against my newest creation?" Eggman asked Sonic and his friends as a large mech landed on the streets. The mech had a burly shape and four arms with a weapon in each hand: A sword, an axe, a spear and a knife. The mech also had gun turrets on its chest.
"You bet, Egghead! None of your fancy machines will be able to take us out!" Sonic said to Eggman.
"Very well then. Let's duke it out for Station Square!" Eggman said as the Eggmobile and its sidecars planted itself on the mech.
"You foolish little hedgehog and your friends! My Egg Paladin's weapons and guns will tear you all to shreds!" Eggman said.
"Yeah, we'll show you who's boss!" Cubot said to Sonic, Tails and Knuckles.
"The mech is quite delicate, Doctor. Handle it gently." Orbot told Eggman.
"Silence, Orbot!" Eggman replied to Orbot.
"Sonic, if it's alright with you, I'll take care of this." Tails said to Sonic.
"You sure, Tails? I don't want you to get hurt or anything." Sonic replied.
"I've dealt with Eggman's machines before, I can obviously take this too." Tails said.
Sonic and Knuckles looked at each other and then back at Tails before nodding.
"Alright, show him what you can do, buddy!" Sonic said as he stepped back.
"Yeah, give him all you got!" Knuckles said as he stepped back too, giving a thumbs up. Tails smiled and turned to Eggman, Orbot and Cubot in their Egg Paladin.
"Let's do this." Tails said as he got out his blaster.
"So the boy wonder Tails is stepping up to fight me? Well, you won't defeat me this time!" Eggman said as his Egg Paladin began moving forward and started swiping its weapons at Tails.
"We're gonna get him!" Cubot exclaimed in excitement. Tails just leaped out of the way and fired his blaster at the arms holding the weapons, causing them to fall off.
"Damn it! Stand still! I can't hit you when you're jumping around like that!" Eggman exclaimed in frustration.
"I'm not that stupid, Eggman." Tails replied as Eggman noticed the arms with the weapons had fallen off.
"Well, let's give the gun turrets a try!" Eggman said as he began firing the gun turrets at Tails, who ran around to dodge the gunfire. Suddenly, the gun turret jammed.
"N-No! The gun turret won't respond!" Eggman said in frustration.
"Now's my chance!" Tails said as he fired his blaster at the gun turrets. The Egg Paladin's body then fell apart.
"Further combat inadvisable, Doctor." Orbot said to Eggman.
"Well, shit." Cubot said in disappointment at being defeated.
"Defeated?! What a disaster! Retreat!" Eggman said as he detatched the Eggmobile from the broken Egg Paladin's body and flew away. The people of Station Square cheered for Tails and Sonic, Knuckles and Amy did the same.
"Great job, buddy! You kicked Eggman's butt real good!" Sonic said as he clapped his hands.
"Yeah, you really showed him who's boss!" Knuckles said happily.
"Go Tails!" Amy called.
Tails' eyes glistened in happiness. He was happy that he was getting praise for his heroic efforts.
"Thank you so much, everyone!" Tails exclaimed happily.
"Now how about we go celebrate this victory with some delicious ice cream?" Sonic suggested. Everyone agreed and they went to do that.
To be continued in the next part, where the Chaotix continue their investigation and Amy starts her first adventure of the story.
