I decided I wanted to add non-Sonic characters who I thought fitted right in the story. Ratigan belongs to Disney. I also wanted songs!
6 months earlier, Central City Streets
Ray the Flying Squirrel was working back after a long day at work until he was ambushed by a purple, green and white flash! They took him into an alleyway where he was never seen again!
6 months later (Present Day)
No-one has ever found Ray. Some assumed he was dead, while others thought he was the out their. He used to live with Mighty helped by paying the half the rent for their apartment. However, Mighty couldn't pay the rent on his own, so was kicked out. Mighty tried to steal the Nacttoirian Staff to sell for money but broke it and became in debt with Elec (Back in Ch7)!
Chaotix's Bar
Charmy was severing food to customers, Vector was playing on the piano while Espio and Mighty were working behind the bar. Silver was sitting at the bar, drinking a glass of Coke. They all knew Mighty was still looking for Ray.
"Come on, Silver. Can't you let me got back in time and save Ray?" Mighty begged.
"I would but then we run the risk of destroying the universe! Same reason why I didn't save Maria for Shadow," Silver said.
"You went out with Honey, didn't you? Why doesn't she help?" Espio asked.
"That was just so I could go to Rouge's party. We haven't done anything after that," Mighty admitted. "How' bout we don't make this about my love life?" Mighty walked off, starting his break.
"From the way he's obsessed with finding Ray, I thought we were talking about his love life," Silver said. Espio could help but laugh.
The bar was closing. The Chaotix were cleaning up the place while Silver decided to help. Silver noticed someone left a newspaper and started reading. The headline stood out. "Two outlaws: Fang the Sniper and Warpnik, have escaped Mobius prison! Stay alert and beware these two outlaws!" it said.
"That's weird!" Silver said.
"What?" Vector asked.
"Has anyone noticed that everything is named after Mobius despite human being racist to Mobians?" Silver said. Vector and Espio look at the newspaper.
"You're right! That is weird!" Vector agreed. Espio face-plamed.
"Really? You're worried about that when two out-laws have escaped?" Espio asked.
"Racism is very serious, Espio!" Vector said.
"Yeah!" Silver agreed. Espio sighed and looked at the newspaper.
"I've never heard of Warpnik but… Fang could be problem!" Espio said.
"I wonder where he is now," Charmy said.
?
Professor Ratigan sat on his leather chair reading a newspaper, explaining Warpnik and Fang's escape. In front of him was Fang along with Bean and Bark, who had just come back from a crime.
"How'd we do?" Bean asked. Ratigan stiffed.
"Hand me a bomb…" Ratigan said, holding out his hand and not even looking at Bean. Bean did as he told. Ratigan use his cigar to light it and threw it out the window. Ratigan blew the cigar's smoke in Fang's face, making him cough.
"Tonight, we go for the big guns!" Ratigan said, standing up, pointing his staff in the air. "At the MRC, Lien-Da has built a mind control gun, allowing us...er… I mean me, to take control of this city, then the country, then the world!"
Fang, Bean and Bark cheered.
"That'll be cake to steal it!" Fang said.
"And, with help from our good 'friend,' Ray the Flying Squirrel, who been with us for 6 months after 'agreeing' to be our first test subject, tonight, will be everyone's last night, and my first, of having total freedom!" Ratigan said. Music started as Ratigan danced to the middle of the room. Butlers came with glasses of wine and one gave Ratigan a top hat.
Ratigan: (Laughs evilly) From the brain that brought you the Green Hill Caper
The head that made headlines in every newspaper
And wondrous things like the Labyrinth Zone Job
That cunning display that made Mobians sob
Now comes the real tour de force
Tricky and wicked, of course
My earlier crimes were fine for their times
But now that I'm at it again
An even grimmer plot has been simmering
In my great criminal brain
Hooligans: Even meaner?
You mean it?
Worse than the Mobians and Humans you drowned?
You're the best of the worst around
Oh, Ratigan
Oh, Ratigan
The rest fall behind
To Ratigan
To Ratigan
The world's greatest criminal mind!
Ratigan: (Playing harp) Thank you, thank you... but it hasn't all been champagne and caviar. I've had my share of adversity thanks to that miserable, second-rate ruler, Elec of Nacttoir City!
Hooligans: (Various boos)
Ratigan: (Overly dramatic) For years, that insufferable reptiles has interfered with my plans! I haven't had a moment's peace of mind.
Hooligans: (Various sympathetic aws)
Bean: (Cries)
Ratigan: (Tone becomes hostile) But all that's in the past! This time, nothing, not even Nacttoir can stand in my way! (Thugs bow to him) All will bow before me!
Hooligans: Oh, Ratigan
Oh, Ratigan
You're tops and that's that
To Ratigan
To Ratigan
Bean: (Clearly drunk) To Ratigan, the world's greatest rat! (Hiccups)
The music stopped.
"What did you call me?" Ratigan yelled.
"We'll be getting that Lien-Da's mind control gun now, sir!" Fang said, grabbing Bean and running away along with Bark.
Chaotix's Bar
They were just about done tidying up. Silver got a text from Blaze.
"Guys, we need to hurry to the MRC!" Silver said.
"Why?" Mighty asked.
"Fang taking an important piece of equipment!"
MRC
"Oi! Get back here!" Lien-Da yelled at Fang who was running away with the gun until he bumped into Shadow.
"You again?" Shadow said. Bean ran up from behind Shadow and threw his bombs at him, making Shadow unconscious. Fang and Bean started running until they were stopped by Blaze.
"Bean, blow this kitty to pieces!" Fang said. Bean did as he was told but the bombs came back like boomerangs! Blaze looked behind her and saw Silver and the Chaotix.
"You two again? Didn't you learn anything when we defeated you the first time?" Silver said. Fang looked at the gun he was holding.
"I'm an idiot!" Fang said, before aiming at Blaze. "Ya know, hedgehog, I'll let one of you go, the other can be my slave! I've don't mind between a hot lady like her who can make flames or you with you telekinsis!" Fang laughed. Silver used his powers to pull the gun from Fang and hold it himself. Silver shot it, hitting Fang and Bean.
"Do use a favour, and turn yourself in to the police!" Silver said. Fang and Bean did as told. Blaze ran up and hugged Silver.
"Thanks Silvy!" Blaze said. Silver face went so red, it was basically a cherry!
"Silvy, huh?" Vector mocked.
"Shut up… I still have the gun!" Silver said.
Outside the MRC
Bark saw Fang and Bean, under orders to got to jail, walk out. Bark made his way back to Ratigan's!
Later, Ratigan's Lair
Ratigan was talking via face-cam to Lien-Da.
"That staged stealing didn't even work! I did my best scared face! This is what happens when you hire half-ass criminals!" Lien-Da ranted. "Why couldn't I just give it to you?"
"Because then you would lose your cover!" Ratigan said. Bark ran it.
"We lost two of your best men, Ratigan, sir!" Bark said.
"I know… Ray is weak compared to the Chaotix along with the hedgehog and cat! I'll trade make you, Bark, trade the squirrel for the gun; as long as Lien-Da agrees to it!" Ratigan said.
"If I do it, I would be seen as a hero, finding the long lost Ray!" Lien-Da smiled, think about all the money she'll be rolling in.

The three main characters are weirdly absent today!
