The gang had just crash landed on a nearby planet. There where little trees around and to the distance was a stone structure.
"WHY THE HECK DIDN'T YOU RECHARGE THE ENERGY CRYSTAL SAGE!" Sora yelled.
"Hey! When I got it the ship the crystal was fully charged and I never used so it's not my fault!"
"Both of you shut up!" Riku yelled. "Let's just calm down and explore that structure."
"Fine." Sora and Sage said. Sage took a better look around. "I think I remember this place." And ran of toward the structure.
"Sage! Wait up!" Sora exclaimed.
Sage ran up some stone stairs, passed a red Echidna, and patted it on the head saying: "Hey Knuckles." Sage passed a Blue hedgehog and an orange fox who watched at Sage passed. All three of the animals were standing on their hind legs and their front ones actually looked like arms. Sage reached the top of the structure where there was a huge green gem. Sage slowly reached for the gem when green lightning shocked Sage's arm. Sage screamed in pain and bent down holding his charred arm with his head lowered.
"Hey Sage what's with all the animals down there?" Sora Said as he and the others caught up.
"Yeah," Kairi said. "Plus one of them had no ears, was it abused or something."
"No," Sage said getting up as if nothing happened. "They're Mobians I think."
"I'm Sonic, Son the Hedgehog." The Blue one said.
"You sure you're a hedgehog," Kairi said pulling at Sonics pointy ears. "You look more like a cat to me."
"Don't do that!" Sonic yelled smacking the redheads' hands way.
"I'm Tails!" The fox said flying with his spinning tails.
The understanding that went straight through every ones heads.
"And the one still down there is Knuckles the Echidna."
"Why didn't he come down?" Sora asked.
"He just doesn't like talking to people for some reason."
Everyone looked down the stairs to se Knuckles' back on the wall and munching on an apple. Suddenly a purple chameleon slowly appeared next to Sonic.
"Sonic," the chameleon said.
Sonic jumped at the sudden voice. "Espio how and when did you get here did you and how long have you been listening?"
"I have a message for you from Eggman." Sonic took the paper from the chameleons hand and the chameleon disappeared again.
Everyone [including Knuckles] closed in around Sonic to read the message when: "HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO! Hello Sonic, I, Eggman Evil Mastermind, have devised the ultimate plan to take over the world! Try and stop moi? I'd like to see you try."
"Why is he telling you his plan?" Sage said.
"I have no idea." Sonic said crumpling up the paper and stuffing it into his spikes. "But we're going to have to stop him that's for sure. Well, let's go!"
In a gust of wind and a flash of blue Sonic dashed away and disappeared. All but Sage who was taking off the braces on his legs stared in amazement.
"That's awesome." Sora said.
"Eh, he's ok." Sage said giving the braces to Riku. "Hold these."
Sage gave quick running start and ran the same speed but stopped looking down. The rest caught up also looking down. They were a thousand feet above the ground and floating.
Tails and Knuckles drove by in a blue plane. "You'll have to get in the Tornado if you want to get off Angel Island."
All but Sage got in. Sage simply jumped a couple hundred feet away from the floating Island and ran off in the thick forest with Sonic.
After a couple hours of flying the plane started to shake and sputter.
"Uh-oh." Tails said. "I think we ran out of gas…"
"Why does technology hate us today?" Sora said. The Tornado slowly started to fall. Knuckles jumped out of the plane and started to glide away but fell slower than the plane.
"Why do all of you guys defy the laws of physics!" Riku exclaimed.
The tornado crashed into a cliff where Sage and Sonic were waiting. They helped the rest of them out of the Tornado.
Sonic looked up the cliff. "Looks like we're going to do some climbing."
"WHAT!" Sora yelled. "Ok, I've flown, swam, and ran for miles but climbing! That's something I can't do."
"Please Sora, don't be such a wuss." Sage said taking his braces back from Riku and putting them back on. "You may have done those things but I've done worse. Now get over here and start climbing."
Knuckles landed on the wall with his spikes dig into the wall and started climbing by shoving his spikes into the rock.
Sora sighed. "I hate my life."
