Meanwhile, back in another universe, Sonic and the gang were all just staring in disbelief at the steaming ruins of Tails plane.

I couldn't believe it. My buddy. Did he- No. I swore he would never get hurt again! I ran at super speed to get to the plane. I could only see smoke and fire. But no body. No remains. Nothing to even give a hint as to what happened to tails. "SEARCH THE ISLAND! SEARCH THE WATER!" I ordered the others. Eggman was long gone. If he hurt Tails or caused him to die. He was going to pay.

Hours went by and everyone came up with nothing. "We searched the whole island Sonic. The waters and every surrounding land. There is no sign of Tails." Amy sighed defeatedly. The team's morale was low. If we couldn't find him, there was hope that he was still alive. But, where...

"Maybe Eggman has him. After his plane crashed, Egghead bailed pretty fast. We have to go get him. Now." I got up quickly, only to be stopped by a blinding light. "What the-?!" I looked up to see a strange being standing before us.

"IT'S THE ALIENS! THEY'VE COME FOR US!" Sticks screamed, rushing out of the room. We'd have to talk to her after we figured this out.

"And who are you?" I would ask, the strange guy wearing a mysterious robe just staring back at me as I spoke. I looked between the last two remaining team mates I had as if expecting them to say something, but they didn't.

"We need your friend back first. She will return soon. But. I have come to give a warning. You must find your friend, Tails. He has fallen victim to a trap set by the dictator of another world" The other would explain, a foggy image of tails appearing before us. But who were those two with him I wondered? "Thankfully he had help escaping, but time is running short. His presence there is going to bring eventual doom to your universe as well should he be caught by Robotnik."

"Robo-who now?" I asked, confused.

"He is similar to your Eggman. He is the same person, but a much more evil version. Where yours is willing to aid in fixing the mistakes made by your own techno genius. This one would have used him to lead to your downfall."

That didn't sound good at all. "So. How do we get there to get Tails?" I asked impatiently. This was taking way too long.

"I'm afraid, you can not. There is another Sonic in this universe. Should you go, you could doom the universe before getting your friend back." The strange person warned me. Of course, we're dealing with that. Why couldn't this be an exception? "Then again. I have sent the young hedgehogs to different timelines and universes and nothing strange has happened. It could be possible that this world is immune to the laws of travel between dimensions. But, you still must be careful. And you must not get captured. Be strong young hedgehog and friends. You must find your own way to this world." With that, the guy just vanished as quickly as he appeared.

"And he didn't even give us a second to answer. He just kept going as if he wanted to get to the point of the story faster. That or the writer is just lazy. Anyway. We need to find a way to get to tails before something bad happens." I told the others. "And the only way to do that is to speak to Eggman." I grabbed Knuckles and Amy and would carry them to find Sticks before we went to Eggman.

"So what you're sayin' is. Tails is in some other dimension and that voodoo guy was warning us about it. Why didn't he say something sooner?!" She asked. "Also, let's not forget. He was spyin' on Tails?! He knew where he was and where we were? Somethin don't smell right about this." I felt the same way in that sense. Couldn't he have taken us to Tails instead of having us go try to get to him ourselves?

We arrived at Eggman's lair, doing the polite thing for once, knocking. We needed the guy's help. No need to upset him even more by knocking down his door for the millionth time. Finally, it opened and Eggman was there to greet us.

"What do you want? Here to rub your latest victory in my face?" He glared out at the four of us.

"Actually no. We have a problem and if we don't figure out how to get to another universe then this universe could be in trouble as well. We need to pinpoint where Tails is and get him back." Egghead seemed as stubborn as ever about this, I could tell by the look on his face. All too amused in thinking that he should make this his problem.

"And why should I bother involving myself in this. If that little two-tailed pest is gone, then that's one less member of team Sonic to deal with. Then again, it does present a problem since he was the most Technically inclined out of all of you." Guess he put more thought into this. But it was hard to tell if he would actually agree.

"Well, are you going to help us or not." I was honestly getting really impatient by this point. The guy really needed to make up his mind.

He stared at me for a good two minutes before answering at all. "Well I would, but do you even know which world he wound up in and do you have even the slightest idea on how long building something to get there will take?"

"We have all the time in the world if it means getting him back. So are you going to help."

"Against my better judgment. Yes. Only because I don't want this all affecting me negatively and then ruining my plans." With that, we got started on trying to find Tails.
