Rocket's POV
I used part of the Crisis City hub to get up to Silver, who was waiting for me. "Yo, Silv! I'm here and you know what I'm here for," I said. "Of course. You're here for the Chaos Emerald I hold. You'll have it once you defeat me in combat," Silver replied. "All right. Let's get this over with," I said. Silver and I were then transported out of White Space and into the arena.
I found myself in Crisis City once again, except I knew I had to face Silver instead of saving Blaze. Silver grabbed hold of a nearby car with his psychokinesis and was preparing to launch it straight at me. I had to Quick Step to avoid being hit with it. Silver then lifted random pieces of debris from the environment. I honed onto each piece and knocked it away before hitting Silv dead-on. "Just because you're a friend doesn't mean I'll go easy on you," I said. "I don't expect you to," Silver replied before picking up three cars using his telekinetic powers. I was unsure about which one was going to fall first, so I waited until Silver made his move. He did so by releasing his telekinetic grasp on the car on the left, then doing the same for the other two. He then brought together a pile of objects to act like a ramp. I used Boost to get as close to Silver as I could, then used my Homing Attack on him. He repeated his tactics starting with the debris. He brought out a Psychic Knife attack to throw at me. Luckily, I was able to Quick Step and the attack missed. Silver disappeared, leaving me unsure about where he went. Suddenly, everything around me was pulled to one spot, so I looked behind me and saw Silver with a meteor of all the debris. "What the hell, Silv? Are you crazy? That's overkill! Someone could get hurt," I said. "I'm programmed to do this," he replied. "Of course," I said, rolling my eyes. He then released his telekinetic grip on the meteor. He then brought over a piece of debris meant to slow me down. He released his hold on it and missed. I then used my Homing Attack to bring him and the meteor crashing down. I was the victor while Silver was swimming in his own failure.
Silver and I were then brought back to White Space. "You have done well. You have defeated me and earned the White Chaos Emerald," Silver said before holding out the Storm Chaos Emerald. I took it from his hand and added it to my Chaos Emerald collection. "Thanks, Silv. Just one more to go," I said. I noticed that color returned to Wave, who caught sight of the Chaos Emerald in my hand. "Nice job, Rocket," Wave congratulated. "Thanks. It wasn't easy, but I'm that much closer to getting all of us home," I replied. I then went upwards to complete some challenges like I did in the last two eras.
