Chapter Five: Infinite's Wrath
Meanwhile, floating above the cage that Amy, Cream, and Rouge were trapped in, there was a black jackal, with long white hair, wearing black metallic gloves with claws, long bushy black tail with white tips, black and silver metallic high top shoes, he wears a silver metallic mask with his right eyes covered with a black lightning bolt shaped seal, and his left eye was revealed, his eye was red with white pupils, the inside of the mask's ear has white with black circles, and he was wearing a ruby on his chest.
He looks down at the women, and chuckles evilly.
"Fools! Do these girls really think that their men have any chance against me? They may have gotten lucky last time, but this time, they won't be as lucky as they were last time." Infinite states, with confidence.
After that, he flies away into the distance somewhere, and flies to the nearest mountain, and stands still on it.
.
(Infinite singing)
It will take some time
To release their inner apathy
Enabled inside
And this looks like they're the enemy
.
He looks over towards where Angel Island is, and laughs evilly.
"Now I no longer have that weakling Eggman to take control over me, with his idiocy, I can do my plan they way it SHOULD be, and how I want it to be!" Infinite stated.
He then flies over towards Angel Island, and he chuckles as he gets closer towards it. As he got closer to it, he then lands on the Island, and looks around.
"And now Knuckles is distracted by Sonic and Tails' attempt to stop me, there is one thing left to do here!" he mentioned, as he walked his way towards the centre of the Island.
.
(Infinite singing)
Things aren't ever what they seem
Won't explain the reasons why
These illusions that we've seen
The many faces of our lives
When they find it hard to breathe
They will keep it all inside
Which one should they be
The many faces of their lives?
.
Infinite has been looking around the Island for about five minutes or so. And when he finally got to the centre, he finally found the alter where the Master Emerald was being kept. He laughs evilly once again.
"There is it! The ULTIMATE power, just what I need to finally live up to my name!" he exclaimed.
He then slowly levitates, and slowly floats his way towards the Master Emerald.
"No need to rush this. I guess I can have a little bit of fun, and stall time, while the four fools waste their time looking for something they will never find." Infinite said.
.
(Infinite singing)
Irrelevant minds
You become a little more serious
Still passing me by
You should not be, rightly, dear to us
.
When Infinite finally made his way towards the alter, he slowly descends in front of the Master Emerald, and slowly walks towards it. He looks at his reflection on the Emerald, and his left eye began to glow red.
"Power! So much POWER!" Infinite sensed.
.
(Infinite singing)
Things aren't ever what they seem
Won't explain the reasons why
These illusions that we've seen
The many faces of our lives
When they find it hard to breathe
They will keep it all inside
Which one should they be
The many faces of their lives?
.
And now that Infinite was very close to the Master Emerald, he then reached for it with both hands, and grabbed hold of it. After he grabs it, he then lifts it off the stand, and the Master Emerald was glowing bright green, while Infinite also was glowing red at the same time.
The Island then began to shake like there was an earthquake, and started to slowly fall into the ocean. Infinite remained in the same spot, and raised the Master Emerald over his head, and laughs evilly. Then all of a sudden, it started to rain heavily.
.
(Infinite singing)
And if they feel that the timings are all wrong
Here's the key to remove themselves from harm
Maybe then they will live again
Live again
.
And then shortly after he retrieved the Master Emerald, he used one of his powers to shrink the Master Emerald, and placed it inside his Ruby for storage. He laughs evilly, and flies away from the area.

"Another beautiful item to add to the collection! I have have came close to reaching full power! Now the only thing that is left, is you, Shadow!" Infinite mentioned.
What could he possibly mean by Shadow being the only thing left?
.
(Infinite singing)
I'm afraid they're in too deep
Things are never what they seem
I'm afraid they're in too deep
.
I'm afraid they're just so deep to come out, okay
I'm afraid they're just so deep to come out, okay
.
Now
Now
.
Infinite has retrieved the Master Emerald in his possession, and Knuckles has no idea about all of this. Knuckles doesn't even know that Angel Island has fallen into the ocean once again. None of the four heroes even know, for that matter, which now gives Infinite the advantage in this scenario.
This looks to be the meaning of the end for the four heroes, and they will be distraught if they find out that there is a possibility that there will be no way they would be able to defeat Infinite just continues to laugh evilly, knowing he poses almost everything he needs for ultimate power.
But the main question is, what is it left that he needs? And why would he need to target Shadow for it? Whatever the reason might be for this moment in time, no doubt it will happen sooner, rather than later.
