Sonic followed Eggman through Star Light, until they reached a massive factory-like building.
"Hohohoho!" Eggman snickered. "Welcome to my humble abode: The Scrap Brain!"
"Eggman!" Sonic cried. "Why are you coming back to your base? There is still one more Emerald! Unless, of course, you've given up?"
"Hohohoho!" Eggman replied. "How amusing! You really are dumb! Did you really think I had forgotten about the last Emerald?"
Sonic was puzzled. He didn't understand what Eggman was saying.
"Well, why are you coming back to your base?" Sonic asked.
"Because, the last Emerald is here!" Eggman sneered. "It lies within my base!"
Episode 6: Scrap Brain! Battle in Eggman's Base!
Sonic chased the doctor into his base. Sonic was shocked that Eggman had the last Emerald after all! Did that mean that he'd lost?
"No," Sonic shouted aloud. "I won't lose to that rotten omelette!"
Sonic managed to outmaneuver the factory's traps, such as flattening pistons and spinning launchers. However, he knew the trouble that he was in. If he wasn't alert, he would be a blue pancake! Nevertheless, he continued onwards, trying to find his way through Eggman's base, all the while looking for the final Chaos Emerald.
The bird from Marble Ruins looked at the sunrise in distress as he worried about Sonic's well-being.
"Sonic...," the bird said to himself. "I'm rooting for you, all the way!"
The old bear puffed on his pipe as the sun began to rise in Spring Yard.
"I can feel them...," the bear said to himself as he removed the pipe from his wrinkled lips. "The Chaos Emeralds... It's as if they are crying... For someone to rescue them. I hope you can do it, boy. South Island... no, the world depends on you."
The mother duck and her three children watched as the sun peaked over the skyscrapers, illuminating the stars in the sky even more.
"Momma," one of the children cried. "Is Papa gonna come home soon? Will that blue guy stop Eggman?"
"Of course they will," the mother duck said weakly. "Sonic is a good spirited person. There's no way he'll lose to that vile excuse for a man. Just hope and have faith. Sonic is fighting for Papa, for you, for me, for all of Star Light, and all of the world below!"
Eggman placed the five Emeralds into the console in the heart of his base as he began to laugh with glee.
"Hohoho!" he said to himself. "All that remains is that pesky final Emerald. The sensors state that it is in this base, but I can't seem to find it. Oh well, all that remains is to flood the trap room with water."
Sonic felt a strange surge of emotion rush through his body. He couldn't understand it, but it felt as if he could hear people cheering him on. Finally, he understood.
"Hold on, guys!" he shouted at the top of his lungs. "I will not lose!"
"Momma, what was that?" one of the other two children cried.
"I don't know," the mother duck replied. "It sounded like a scream."
The old bear took another puff from his pipe when he heard a faint sound in the distance.
"I understand," the bear said to himself. "I don't doubt that for a second, boy."
The bird became sharply attentive as he heard a sound.
"Sonic?" the bird asked as his eyes began to well with tears. "Is that you?"
Sonic finally arrived at Eggman's control room, where he met face to face with Eggman.
"Show's over, Eggman!" Sonic shouted. "Time to meet your end!"
"You first, my dear hedgehog," Eggman sneered as he pulled a lever.
Sonic felt the ground beneath him fall as he followed suit, down in the depths. Soon, he landed in a pull of water, as he sank to the bottom. He couldn't breathe and had to act fast if he intended to live. He found an underwater tunnel, but before he followed it, he noticed a glimmer in the water. As he went to inspect it closer, it all became clear. There it was, the final Chaos Emerald!
Thinking quickly, Sonic grabbed the Emerald and proceeded to exit through the tunnel. He came into another open room, only this one had shooting arrows and spinning spike balls. Before Sonic could think, he felt his breath grow short. He was running out of time. Thinking fast, he gripped the stone wall and attempted to climb. He slowly climbed as he felt his final breath leave him. Was it all over?
No! Sonic though to himself, regaining composure and climbing quicker. I came this far! I won't lose now!
Sonic reached the surface just in time, but he was nearly hit by a spiked ball! He narrowly dodged it and continued to climb the wall, now outside of the water, but still, he could see light above him. He just had to reach it...
Sonic found himself inside Eggman's control room and saw the doctor nearby.
"Found you, Eggman!" Sonic cried.
"S-sonic?" Eggman stammered. "How did you-?"
Suddenly, a grin spread across his face as Sonic walked right into his trap!
"What is this?" Sonic cried as the door behind him shut.
"You have finally come to bear witness to the Egg Scrambler!" Eggman cackled. "The ultimate machine!"
Sonic sighed.
"Egg Scrambler?" he scoffed as he raised his eyebrow.
"Prepare to be breakfast, you foolish rodent!" Eggman cackled as the two pistons on the ceiling crashed down, nearly flattening Sonic!
"I gotta be careful!" Sonic cried, but before he could think, the ground below him, shot up!
He jumped to safety just as the piston struck the ceiling.
"This isn't good!" Sonic cried.
"You see now, Sonic?" Eggman explained. "Those who oppose Robotnikland will be crushed by the power of these pistons!"
Sonic continued to dodge them, but lost his footing, dropping the Chaos Emerald in the process. He gasped as the gem rolled before Eggman's feet, who picked it up and grinned.
"Hohoho!" he cackled. "So you found it for me? Alright, Sonic! Time to see the Egg Scrambler's true form!"
Eggman cackled as he placed the final Emerald into the console.
Next Time: Eggman powers his ultimate creation with the six Emeralds, and it is Sonic's job to stop it! Don't miss Eggman's Perfect Machine! Power of the Six Chaos Emeralds!
