In the Mystic Ruins Forest was Sonic. He fell off the Eggo'matic Hovercraft and landed here. So he was looking around trying to find his way out. He looked towards the sky and noticed that Angel Island had risen again. He knew that'd keep Robotnik from getting to them easily but he also knew he had to find Robotnik. As he ran he found himself in a clearing. Here he saw a prymid that Tails had noticed while they were in Windy Valley. The Ruins looked old and moss and other plants where here and there around it. Suddenly, something flew by him he looked to see a strange ball of light. It flew to what could of been an opening in the prymid. Where a stond snake head was. Suddenly, the prymid began to rise starting from where the snake head was at. It rose til it revieled an opening where as it looked like the stone sneak head opened it's mouth. The light flew into the prymid.
Perhaps, Robotnik's using the prymid as a base, Sonic pondered that's explain the light and what just happened. So Sonic went to the prymid and went inside. Inside was dark but the small ball of light lead the way. Sonic followed the light even as it picked up speed. Sonic knew they were headed deep into the prymid. Sonic continued following the light until he found himself in a room.
The light flew over to the back where a mural was. Sonic walked up to it and looked at the mural. The Mural depicted a rather large Snake like water monster as it terroized some village. Sonic pondered of the meaning of the mural. Then wondered could the beast in the mural be Chaos? After all he didn't know what the beast looked like when he had all seven emeralds. He wondered about this when suddenly the light came up to him. The light caused him to black out.
When he opened his eyes he was outside and it was night. But there was a light coming from a fire. Sonic looked to it and saw that it was burning some kind of shrine but he also saw the Master Emerald up top.
"why did this have to happen?" a voice said.
Sonic looked to see a Mobian Echidna girl. The girl walked up to the steps that lead up the shrine.
"I must put a stop to this," She said as she headed up to the Master Emerald.
The surroundings around Sonic suddenly faded as Sonic then found himself right outside the prymid in the Mystic Ruins.
Strange, Sonic thought.
But then he saw someone heading through the forest.
Robotnik? Sonic thought as he then began to follow him. Sonic followed him till he reached an old research lab probally left long ago. Sonic eventually, Sonic could tell that indeed was Robotnik.
Sonic followed him into the building. Inside was a simple lab with a few addition high tech stuff Robotnik probally used to make his stuff.
"Robotnik," Sonic said and Robotnik turned around.
"Sonic?" Robotnik said, "how'd you..."
"This ends here," Sonic said.
"Not yet it doesn't," Robotnik then pressed a button on a table. Suddenly a machine behind Sonic came to life. It was grey and was actually looked a little like Sonic.
"Sonic meet Silver Sonic," Robotniks said, "Silver Sonic meet Sonic. I wouldv'e had him ready when I had my Death Egg, but he wasn't ready."
Sonic turned the Silver Sonic.
"I'll destroy this Robot," Sonic said, "Then your next."
Robotnik back up as he then got into a clear chamber. It had a speaker.
"I'll just await in here," Robotnik said.
Sonic Dashed at Silver Sonic who in turn dashed back matching SOnic's speed. The two met as they slammed into each other. the force pushed them both back. Suddenly, Silver Sonic rolled into a ball as it then did it's own spin dash. Sonic jumped out of the way. Silver Sonic turned on a dime as it went after Sonic again. Sonic turned to a kind of generator that was used to give elctricity to the lab. He possition himself so that it was in behind him. Silver Sonic dashed towards him as Sonic waited for the last second to move out of the way. Silver Sonic dashed past Sonic as it was now headed for the genorator but it stopped right before hitting it. But SOnic was on his toes and slammed into Silver Sonic. The force sent Silver Sonic into the genorator. The sparks began and suddenly an explotion went off. Sonic used his speed to get out but there was no time for Robotnik as he was still inside the old research lab as the explotion went off.
Sonic looked towards the fire. So ends Dr. Robotnik.
Sonic watched the fire for a little longer. Making sure Robotnik didn't come crawlling out some how. After he gave it some time he left heading back to The Flight Brothers' workshop. As he arrived he saw that Tails was there too.
"Sonic," She said as she saw him she saw he looked a little roughed up, "What happened?"
"I dealt with Robotnik," Sonic explained.
"You mean he's...?" Tails asked.
Sonic nodded knowning full well what Tails ment.
"And you're sure this time?" Tails asked.
"He was caught in an explotion," Sonic said, "I waited incase he came out but he didn't."
Tails breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well that's one less thing to worry about," Tails said.
Sonic turned to the flight brothers and Rotor.
"How soon we'll you be able to get me a plane to Angel Island?"
"Well..." Rotor began then suddenly the entire building began to shake.
"What's going on?" Tails asked.
The shaking then subsided. Jazz went to look out a window.
"Umm guys you're not gonna believe this," Jazz said.
"What?" Tails asked.
"Look outside and see," Jazz said.
So Sonic, Tails, Jazz, Dash, and Rotor went outside. They looked to see that Angel Island was now back on the ground.
"Did something happen to the Master Emerald again?" Tails wondered.
Sonic shrugged as left and headed to Angel Island. Tails followed.
On Angel Island, Knuckles was inspecting the Master Emerald.
"Why did it fall," Knuckles wondered as he looked for any cracks in the Master Emerald. He then looked at the six Chaos Emeralds he had there with him.
"Did they cause this?" Knuckles pondered.
"Knuckles."
The voice wasn't far off and it sounded faint. Knuckles looked the last person he'd expect. It was Robotnik crawling up to him.
"Robotnik what are you doing here?" Knuckles asked as he walked over to him, "If you think you're going to find refuge here then you can forget it."
"this is terrible," Robotnik said, "Chaos is..."
"What about Chaos?" Knuckles asked but suddenly he felt something struck him on the head.
Knuckles was shaken as he came too. He looked up too see Sonic and Tails by him.
"Sonic, " Knuckles said as he sat up but slowly, "I'm... uh Sorry."
"What happened here Knuckles?" Tails asked.
"Chaos, " Knuckles said, "He came and stole the Chaos Emeralds."
"What?" Tails said, "You're kidding right."
"I'm afraid not," Knuckles said, "Chaos is a fearsome beast Sonic, as long as he doesn't get ahold of the last Emerald it should be ok, Sonic."
Tails looked at Sonic. His expression seemed calm but he was tightening fists and Tails could tell that Sonic was really angery.
"Sonic?" Tails asked.
Sonic was not happy. How many times has he had collected the Chaos Emeralds just for them to slip from his fingers? He was seething with anger... Suddenly a bright light apeared in front of him. Sonic blacked out. When he came too he was outside the Master Emerald alter. But it was night again and he could see the shrine burning.
Sonic looked around forgetting his anger.
"This place again," Sonic said, "So it wasn't a dream after all."
Up ahead Sonic could see a crowd of Mobian Echidnas. They looked to be some kind of solders. Sonic made his way up as he saw the Echidna girl standing in front of them with her arms out stretched.
"Get out of the way Tikal," an Echidna that looked slightly older than the rest said he spoke with an air that pointed out that he was oobviously the leader.
"Go away," The girl echidna, Tikal said.
"We need those emeralds Tikal," The leader echidna said, "The people need them the Seven Chaos Emeralds. We need them to take down the enemies of the tribe. They are your people too Tikal."
Tikal didn't stand down.
"Greed is our enemy," She told her father, "Once you've got a taste you'll allways want more. Don't do this, I beg you."
"I will not listen to the words of a child," the leader said, "You leave me no choise. Ready men? Go, collect the Emeralds."
The echidna warriors advanced on pushing past Tikal as they made their way up the shrine. They pushed past the Chao trampling them as they went. Sonic then saw a bright multicolored light. The Echidna warriors made it to the top.
"AHH it's a monster!" Sonic heard one scream and then the screams of the wariors.
Sonic walked over to where Tikal was lying down.
"Are you allright?" he asked.
Tikal slowly stired.
"I think so," Tikal said.
She then gazed up at the shrine.
"Oh my gosh!" Tikal said.
Then a roar was heard.
"NO No NO!" Tikal said as she got up and went to the top of the Shrine.
Sonic followed.
Tikal reached the top.
"The seven seven emeralds are the servers," Tikal said, "The Controler is the one that unifies the Chaos."
Tikal looked at the Master Emerald then something dawned on her.
"If the Chaos Emeralds can turn thoughts into power," Tikal said, "Then this one can. Please you must stop him."
Suddenly the Master Emeralds grew bright. But Sonic didn't see much else as the surroundings faded.
