The group walked toward the stadium entrance where they were stopped by Mario's ally, Link. "State your business", Link said.

"Sonic the Hedgehog with his teammates", Sonic said. "Ah yes, Mario's awaiting your challenge, show me your invites", Link said.

Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Blaze, Shadow, Vector and Eggman pulled out their invites and showed them to Link. "Ok, you can enter the area of the combatants, what of the rest of you?" Link asked.

"We're the refs", Cream said. "Show me your certificate", Link said. Cream, Charmy and a reluctant Espio showed their tickets.

"Enter through the other area over there", Link said. Everyone was moving and Cheese followed Cream. "Cheese, you need to go with Rouge and Omega, I can't have you with me while I'm referee", Cream said.

Cheese obeyed and went with Rouge. "What of the rest of you?" Link asked. "We're the supporters", Rouge said. "Ok, you need to be in the audience", Link said.

Everyone prepared to go where they needed to go. "Wait up Sonic", Link said, getting Sonic's attention. "What?" Sonic asked. "Remember this, Mario is extremely experienced in sports, he plays golf, he plays baseball, he play soccer, he does a lot, beware", Link said.

"You let me and my teammates worry about that", Sonic said. "You have been warned, I shall watch you suffer your agonizing defeat", Link said.

"Don't count your eggs before they hatch", Sonic said.

As everyone started leaving, three other people came. Sonic, Knuckles and Tails turned around to the three people are Solid Snake, Raiden and Otacon. "I heard of that guy I saw his picture on T.V.", Sonic said.

"Yeah, that's Solid Snake", Tails said. "He's attending?" Knuckles asked. "I guess so, weird", Sonic said.

"Hurry up Sonic!" Shadow shouted. Sonic, Knuckles and Tails moved on. "I see you've decided to come Mr. Snake", Link said. "Yeah, thanks to that invite from Mario", Snake said.

"Why would he do that though?" Otacon asked. "Why does Mario wanna see us?" Raiden asked. "You'll have to wait; Mario will reveal everything upon beating Sonic the Hedgehog in the Olympics", Link said.

"Don't get cocky, Sonic has as much power as Mario, it will be close", Snake said. "I don't think that team can hold together", Link said.

In the team locker room, everyone is preparing for the games. "Ok, we just have to go out there a show everyone what we are made of", Sonic said.

"We will defeat Mario and his team, we will prove dominant over those inferior beings", Shadow said. "Let's go out there and show them what we can do", Tails said.

"The power of team work", Sonic said. Everyone went out into the field where everyone was cheering loudly to see Sonic and his friends. "Wow, there sure are a lot of people", Tails said.

"So many people, I don't think I can…" Blaze was saying. "Hey relax, they're not here to judge you", Sonic said.

"Yeah but still", Blaze said. "Don't worry, we'll get through this", Tails said. "Yeah, we need to take down Mario", Vector said.

Mario arrived with his team; Luigi, Bowser, Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Yoshi, Wario and Waluigi. "Bonjorno Sonic", Mario said. "Hello Mario", Sonic said.

"It's time to settle this once and for all", Mario said. "Yeah, let's see who's the better person", Sonic said.

Link arrived at the area. "Welcome to the Mario vs. Sonic Olympic Games, now here's how it's done, there will be eights events, triple jump, vault, hammer tossing, spear throw, archery, aquatics, fencing, and table tennis, the ninth event will have the eight winners of these events, a huge track race, who's ever team wins in the final event will win the Olympic Games", Link said.

"Aquatics?" Sonic asked. "Relax Sonic, maybe you don't have to be in that event", Tails said. "And you can guarantee that Sonic will be one of the 8 swimming", Link said.

"I hate you so much", Sonic said. "Relax, they have to get you a life jacket if you can't swim", Tails said. "We have three guests here at the Beijing Olympics, they are Heroes in their own rights, after all they stopped Metal Gear, Solid Snake, Raiden and Otacon", Link said. Everyone cheered for the 3 sitting in a special booth.

"Ok then, let's light the torch and begin the Olympics", Link said.

The Human Torch of the Fantastic Four arrived and lit the Torch. "Yeah, flame on!" Human Torch said.

Rouge was in the audience with Omega and Silver. "This is gonna be exciting", Rouge said.

"What are the chances of Sonic winning?" Omega asked. "He should have a good chance", Silver said.

"I hope so", Rouge said. "Oh hello there", Vanilla said. She arrived with Big the Cat.

"Why come here, you're daughter isn't a participant", Rouge said.

"Well I came to support Sonic, so did Big", Vanilla said. Human Torch saw Vanilla and landed down next to her.

"What's up? Name's Johnny Storm, also known as the Human Torch, I can be your hero", Human Torch said. Vanilla giggled at that remark and Johnny knew he had her in the bag.

On the roof, the Babylon Rouges, Jet, Wave and Storm were watching the games. "He's definitely not impartial", Jet said. "Well Sonic's overcome odds before, he beat you in a race", Wave said.

"Hey it wasn't official, besides this Mario guy is just as big a legend", Jet said. "Maybe, but let's see if Sonic can show them what he's made of, that also goes for his friends", Wave said. "And Dr. Eggman", Storm said. "Yeah, that's also gonna be a problem", Jet said.
