"…that's weird alright" said Sonic as he watch Tails checking his computer. Suddenly Blaze and Marine enter the living room after cleaning up Marines little mess in Tails workshop. "what's weird mates?". "…huh oh well you see, the last few hours my scanner which tracks the chaos emeralds energy is picking seven more energy like it". Blaze walk up to Tail and show him the sol emeralds. "are you sure its not the sol emeralds, Tails?". "well I thought about it at first but look…". everyone look at the computer screen and could see the unknown energy signals scatter across the map while eight energy signals was flashing on Tails home. "…I see but why is there a eight signal here?" ask Blaze. Tails got up and walk over to a safe and open it and showed everyone the yellow chaos emerald. "I found it near Green Hill a few days ago" said Tails as he toss it over to Sonic who nearly drop it. Suddenly Tails notice two of the unknown signals was moving with two chaos signals. "…they're moving? Huh?". Tails notice one of them was heading to Cream house. "…that's right! Cream told me she found the purple emerald a week ago and was keeping it as a good luck charm!". "then we should head to Cream place fast! Who ever has these unknown emeralds might be hostel" said Blaze. Tails got out of his chair and ran into the hanger with everyone right behind him. "okay we should take the Cyclone!". Tails jump into the blue airplane and started it. "hey mate! We have a problem! There's only one extra seat!". "huh? Who right…since only Sonic rides with me, I didn't build more seats". Sonic turn and saw a outline of a plane cover with a sheet. "hey, Blaze and I will take the Tornado". "good idea Sonic. Marine jump in!". Marine got in her seat and the Cyclone took off. Sonic pulled the sheet off the Tornado and Blaze was surprise to see a old looking plane. "…will she even fly Sonic?". "of course she will! She never let me down before!" smile Sonic as he knock on the hull, suddenly something fell out of the bottom of the plane. "…but Sonic…". Sonic kick the part away and jump into the driving seat. "don't worry. Now hop in". Sonic started the engine when Blaze jump in. soon smoke came out the engine for a few seconds and vanish. "okay! Lets go!". the plane drove down the airstrip but didn't flew as it fell to the ocean. "SONIC!" yelled Blaze as she hold on to her seat. Suddenly the plane went up and follow its younger brother. "what I told ya! She can still fly!" said Sonic as he gave Blaze the thumbs up. Suddenly Blaze punch Sonic in the head. "we almost died!". suddenly Tails voice was heard on Sonic radio system. "are you guys okay? Over". Sonic pick up the speaker and spoke back. "roger. We're fine Tails. The old girl still got it!". a few seconds pass and Sonic answer again. "hey bud are you still there?". "Sonic, you need to say over when your done….over". "…say what again?". "over! Over". "over what? I don't see anything?". Sonic could hear Tails sighing. "…never mind Sonic…anyway I just pick up two chaos emeralds and two unknown energy signals on Angel island". "…hmmm I know Knuckles and Shade can hold their own but…". "should we spit up then mate?" ask Marine as she join the talk. "…she is right Sonic. Marine and I will head to Angel island…". "…and Blaze and I will head to Creams place" finish Sonic. "be careful you guys!" said Blaze as she spoke into the speaker. "you too guys! Later!". Tails put away the speaker and press a button on the control panel and the Cyclone form into the X-Cyclone and took off in great speed. 'wow! Hey Sonic?". "yeah Blaze?". "can this plane go any faster like Tails plane just now?". "sure!". Sonic press a red button and a rocket booster appear under the plane and made the plane go slightly faster. "well Blaze?". Blaze sat back and sigh. "…worst trip ever!".
Meanwhile at Cream house, a figure in black landed outside the house and took off his hood to reveal a white hedgehog with red lines on his quills. The hedgehog rose his hand and was about to do something in till he heard a little girl laughing inside. He walk over to the window and saw a light orange rabbit with a some kind of animal, talking to a older rabbit which was the little girls mother. Suddenly the hedgehog saw a purple emerald on the table. "…the emerald…but I can't hurt a little girl". suddenly a small device hover into the air and a screen with "sound only" appear. "Shockwave report in". "what is it Blade?". "did you got the emeralds yet?". "…just the dark blue one from that bat girl…I found the purple one but…". '…but?". "…a little girl has it…" said Shock as he return watching the family in the window. "so what? Kill them and get the emerald!". "…copy Blade. Shock out". Shock got up from the window and walk up to the door and rose his hand. Soon screams was heard as Shock thought back to his past. "…I can't…". suddenly Cream and Vanilla heard a knock at the door. As Vanilla open the door and could see a hedgehog wearing a black cloak. "may I help you sir?". suddenly Shock push Vanilla to the floor and walk in. "…give me the emerald!". Cream grab the emerald and ran to her mom side while cheese jump in front of them to protect them from the hedgehog. "…I said give me the emerald!". "No! this emerald is the only thing that reminds me of Blaze! You can't have it!". Shock rose his hand to a wall and destroy it with a shock wave. Shock saw the fear in their eyes. "…this feeling…" thought Shock as he grab his chest and a white glow appear. "….please I don't want to hurt you or your mother. I'll ask-". suddenly Shock felt something heading his way. He ran outside and search the skies. "its around here!…wait there's seven more…but their different…huh?". suddenly Shock saw a red airplane and someone jumping out of it and fire cover the jumper. Shock jump out of the way and saw a female purple cat kneeing as the smoke clear. "Blaze!" cried Cream as she hug Blaze. "…Cream! Long time, no see!". "…I can sense the seven emeralds within her…". Shock rose his hand and shot out a shock wave at them but suddenly a blue tornado block the wave. "huh? Where did that tornado came from?" said Shock as he lower his hand. "from me!". Shock look up to the house roof and saw a blue hedgehog sitting there and smiling. "…a blue hedgehog…can it be?" thought Shock. "hey you up there! Is your name Sonic?". "well you heard of me! Yeah! I'm the fastest thing alive!". suddenly Shock fire a wave of grey light at Sonic but he was able it dodge it and did the finger thing from the old days. "hey pal you better cool down! Someone is going to get hurt here…". suddenly a fireball hit Shock and send him into the forest. "…and that person is you!" finish Blaze. Sonic jump down and help Vanilla from the floor. "are you guys okay?". "yes Sonic but our home isn't" spoke Vanilla as she saw the huge hole in the roof and wall. Blaze knee down to Cream and smile. "don't be scare Cream. I'm here now!". "I'm not scare now Blaze! You kept your promise!". "…promise?". "yeah! Remember? Sonic told me you will return someday". Blaze look over to Sonic, who was looking the other way. "…yeah I remember now". suddenly Shock jump out of the forest and hover in the air. "…so that bat girl was right…he's fast!" thought Shock. Sonic turn to Vanilla and Cream. "you two stay here! We're going to bring this guy down!". Cream threw the emerald at Sonic and caught it. "Sonic you better hold on to it! He's after it" shouted Cream as she ran over to her mother. "right!". Sonic grab Blaze hand as she burst hover into the air. Soon Sonic and Blaze was face to face with Shock. Shock made the first move as he shot out a beam of grey light at them. Blaze was able to dodge it and toss Sonic at Shock. Sonic went into ball mode and slam into Shock. Shock quickly recover and grab Sonic who was still in ball mode and kick him into the air. Sonic got out of ball mode and shot his Sonic Wind at him. At that moment, Blaze summon a pillar of flames under Shock. Both attack hit their mark. "…did we get him?" ask Sonic as Blaze caught him. Suddenly a after image came rushing out of the smoke and grab on Blaze and became a shock wave. The forces of the attack sent Blaze and Sonic to the forest below. Sonic grab Blaze and landed on a tree branch. "Blaze! Are you okay?". Blaze got up and rub her head. "…I'm fine Sonic". suddenly a other after image appear in front of them and blew up into a shock wave. Lucky Sonic and Blaze got away from the attack as they ran through the forest. Suddenly they came to a stop and saw hundreds of after image in front of them and they all smile as they blew up. Shock watch as the trees flew into the air from the shock wave and only a huge crater was left. But to shock surprise, Sonic and Blaze survives as a red spring fell to the earth. "Sonic, where did you get that spring from?" ask Blaze as she still hold on to Sonic arm. "…I have no clue…". Shock rush over to them and punch Sonic in the face but Blaze was able to counter by kicking Shock in the gut and then use her burst hover to send him flying from them. Blaze hover in the air with Sonic and watch as Shock return to them and smile. "I thought I could handle you both but look like I was wrong…". "so your giving up?" said Sonic. Shock just laugh and the air around him started to spin. "…no!". suddenly Shock became the wind but you could still see his outline. "…I'm just getting started!". Shock rush over to Sonic and Blaze. Both of them attack as Shock was near them but to their surprise their attack went right through him and even their body went through him as he kept going. Suddenly Sonic and Blaze felt like someone blasted a bomb near them and fell to the scar forest. Sonic was able to use tornado spin and they safely landed on the ground but could hardly move. "…what was that?…" spoke Sonic as he cough up some blood. Shock landed near them and smile. "I can also control the wind. Right now your inside took a beating as I pass through your body. If you get hit again by my attack…well its game over for you two. Now give me the emeralds!". "…screw you!" souted Sonic as he got up with Blaze from the ground. "…too bad". Shock form into the wind again and rush over to them. Suddenly time froze and a black hedgehog and a bat girl appear from a green flash and was standing in front of Shock. "…is he the one Rouge?" ask Shadow as he rose the green emerald to Shock face. "yeah its him Shadow". The green emerald started to flash and a blast of energy hit Shock and time return to normal and Shock was toss into a pile of broken trees. Sonic and Blaze notice Shadow and Rouge in front of them. "hey shadow! What took ya?" smile Sonic. "…so that's Shadow and that bat girl is Rouge then" thought Blaze. Shock got out of the pile of trees and saw Shadow and Rouge next to Sonic and Blaze. "…its that bat girl again…and she brought a friend…great…". Rouge step forward and pointed at Shock and spoke. "give me back my emerald! You thief!". "…make me!" grin Shock as he walk up to them. Shadow and Sonic was about attack Shock till Rouge put her arm in front of them. "hold it boys! He's mine!". "…are you sure?". Rouge turn to Shadow and smile at him. "yeah". "…fine". Rouge turn to Shock and ran to him and did a spinning kick on him. Shock grab her leg and toss her into the air but Rouge use her drill drive and smash Shock in the face and jump away from him. Shock got up and his face heal. Shock sent a shock wave at Rouge but she use her drill kick and went underground and pop up under him and use her screw kick but Shock jump out of the way but Rouge quickly follow him and did a storm of kicks on him. Suddenly a kick landed on his chest and he scream in pain as his chest glow white. "…crap! You will pay! Farewell for now…". Shock vanish and Rouge slam her feet into the ground and curse under her breath. Later back at Cream house, Sonic and the others was resting in till Sonic turn to Rouge. "so he stole the emerald from you then". "yeah! I found it near Bingo hallway and he attack me out of the blue and took it and that's…". "…that's when she contacted me to track him down with my emerald" said Shadow as he cut off Rouge. "…this isn't good Sonic! Remember the other signals! There at least six others like Shock out there!". "your right Blaze! There two on Angel island…Tails and Marine might be in trouble if Shade or Knuckles gets defeated. Heck, we got our butts handed to us, if it wasn't for Shadow and Rouge" smile Sonic as look over to his savors. "…Sonic your right! I can sense the emerald that this Shock person had stole and is heading to Angel island" spoke Shadow as he open his eyes. Sonic got up from his chair and ran outside. "Then we better get going!". Shadow rose his emerald and spoke. "we'll meet up with you guys there! Later!". Shadow and Rouge vanish in a bright green flash. Sonic got in his plane which was park in a grassy field not to far away from Cream House and started it. Blaze hop in and was surprise to see Cream running to them. "let me come guys!". "…I don't know Cream…Sonic?". "yeah sure why not?". Cream hop in with Blaze and the plane took off. Vanilla and cheese was cleaning the mess till they heard Cream voice in the air and saw her in Sonic plane. "Mom! Cheese! I'll be back soon!". "okay honey! Be careful!". Vanilla and Cheese wave to Cream in till her and the plane vanish into a cloud.
