Disclaimer: SEGA owns Sonic and Co. I only own Armand and this story.
Welcome back to Sonic Rush: New Version.
Last time, Blaze and Silver came to Sonic's world, Blaze and Armand went at it, Knuckles was too amused to stop it, Rouge did not want to interfere (Armand gets ticked off when somebody interferes in a fight), and Silver decided not to get caught up in it. Not even Shadow could stop it. Things settled down after Amy came up to them and made an outburst that stopped the fight. They decided to go to Sonic's house and tell him what had happened.
What they would soon find out would send even Omega into a panic (he'll show up later)…
Chapter 2: World in Crisis
It was about an hour since Amy broke up the fight between Blaze and Armand. By this time, anyone would think everyone would have calmed down. But Blaze and Armand desperately wanted to go at it again, just to settle it. Amy wouldn't let them. She stood between them so they wouldn't fight. Amy was between them because everyone knew that she would get mad if something started again (Don't make Amy mad!!). It wasn't long before they reached Amy's favorite place to go besides the mall: Sonic's house. Sonic was inside, watching TV, but nothing interested him. He decided to go for a run, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw his reason to close it. He locked the door.
"Amy, what is going on?" Sonic said, clearly in a panic.
"Sonic, I…" Then an idea hit her. "I got some friends together to make you go on a date with me."
"NO WAY!!"
"Alright then, I guess we'll make you." Then, to his surprise, he heard his friends' voices outside, obviously playing along, with Armand starting the whole thing.
"Come on, Sonic. Get out here." Armand started it off.
"You had better get outside." Knuckles followed.
"You can't escape, Sonic." Tails called out.
The next line did the trick.
"Do you really want to make her cry?" Shadow said. Sonic came out.
"Don't cry, Amy!" Sonic replied in a panic.
Hook, line, and sinker. Or so he thought. Everyone started laughing.
"Sonic, you fell for the whole thing." Amy said as she started laughing.
"Way too easy." Armand replied.
"You know, I wouldn't have come out here if Shadow had kept his mouth shut."
"Shut up, you arrogant hedgehog."
"Want to fight, faker?"
Just as they started to go at it, Amy stepped in between.
"WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!!" She said as she pulled out the hammer.
Sonic and Shadow backed off.
"Now, the reason why we're here."
A few minutes later, Sonic had been brought up to speed.
"So, let me get this straight. Blaze and Silver appeared near where Knuckles and Rouge were guarding the Master Emerald, Blaze and Armand went at it, Shadow couldn't stop it, and Amy finally had enough and stopped the fight." Sonic said, finally sorting it out.
"Exactly. The best way to return them to their world would be to collect the Chaos Emeralds." Shadow told them.
"It won't be that easy. We also need the Sol Emeralds from our world." Blaze responded.
At that point, Tails came in from his workshop in the back.
"Everyone, we have a problem."
"We're listening, Tails." Silver said, wondering what could be happening.
"There's a tear in the space-time continuum!!"
"WHAT!!" Everyone said, almost at once.
A voice was heard at the front door. "How is that possible?" They turned to find a green hawk. "And is Eggman involved?"
"We don't know, Jet." Sonic answered Jet's question.
"I have a feeling we may be in trouble." They looked behind Jet to find a purple swallow at the door. This would be Wave.
"And I'm hungry. Is it lunchtime yet?" Said a grey albatross. He was still outside.
"Hey, it's Storm!!" Knuckles realized. It took Sonic, Rouge, and Armand to hold him back from a fight.
Jet calmed everyone down. "We're not here to fight. Come outside and look at what's happening."
As everyone walked outside, they were in shock. A purple-colored haze had covered a part of the world.
"Is this a sign of the corruption?" Tails asked, still wondering what this was.
"More than likely. And I bet Eggman is involved." They heard someone talk, but couldn't see him. Then a purple chameleon appeared. Espio had heard about what happened, and wherever he was, Charmy and Vector weren't far behind. They were on their way to tell Sonic, but he had heard everything.
"If so, then we'll need to split up." Tails said. "Sonic, go to Leaf Storm Forest. Blaze, you go to Water Palace. Shadow, head to Mirage Road in the desert. I'll go to the Night Carnival in Twinkle Park. Knuckles, go find G.U.N's naval fleet. The emerald should be on the Huge Crisis battleship. Armand, head to the sky base in the Altitude Limit no-fly zone. I tracked the Chaos Emeralds to those areas. I can't find the seventh one. We'll save it for later."
"And the rest of us?" Amy said impatiently.
"Go with who you want."
Amy quickly chose Sonic, Silver decided to go with Blaze, Shadow decided to find Omega and bring him in on this, Cream went with Tails, Rouge teamed up with Knuckles, and Team Chaotix decided to tag along with Armand.
"We meet here when the emeralds are collected. And be on the lookout for the Sol Emeralds as well."
"We'll find the doctor and make him explain all this." Jet offered.
"You go ahead. We'll get the emeralds. Let's go." Sonic said, not wanting to waste more time.
The team split up to go find the emeralds that would be the key to restoring the world.
End of Chapter 2
Chapter 2 comes to a close. More heroes appear, the Babylon Rogues are in on this, the heroes decided to split up to find the emeralds, and Eggman may know something about this. What awaits our heroes? Next up, we follow Sonic and Amy in the Leaf Storm forest.
