Chapter 3: Power of the Master Emerald
Jack was rather eager to see the Master Emerald with all of its glory, he ended up being led by Sonic back into the chambers where Knuckles was preparing the ceremony.
"Everything is almost complete" said Knuckles, "once we tap into the Master Emerald, it can teleport you back to your own time."
"Don't worry, I'll stop Aku and end this once and for all" said Jack.
As Knuckles began the chants the Master Emerald began to shine pretty bright, however things were about to be disrupted as the Robotic Samurai began to scan the area and noticed a bright shining light up ahead.
"Targets acquired" said the Robotic Samurai as it then began to race toward the bright light.
The bright green light shined straight from the Master Emerald, emulating a line straight from the heavens in the hopes of opening up a portal. Jack stood back hoping to enter the portal just as the moment Aku had sent him back into time. Aku himself was observing and wasn't happy.
"Bah, the fool thinks he can go back into the past with the aide of the Master Emerald, no matter, time for a new target!" laughed Aku as he began to inputting the commands.
The Robotic Samurai continued to charge up toward the bright light and barged right into the chambers.
"Still in pieces?!" cried Sonic as he noticed the Robotic Samurai.
"Target acquired, new mission destroy the Master Emerald and prevent Samurai Jack from entering the past to stop Master Lord Aku" said the Robotic Samurai.
"You shall do no such thing robot" said Jack as he took out his sword.
Both the Robotic Samurai and Jack clashed with their swords.
"He's trying to destroy the emerald!" cried Jack to Sonic.
"But if the emerald is destroyed the Floating Island will be falling right down" said Sonic.
"I'll keep him at bay as long as possible" said Jack.
The fight between Jack and the Robotic Samurai intensified as the two continued to clash, the portal began to open up thanks to the help from Knuckles.
"Almost there" said Tails as he could see the fight between Jack and Aku back in the past.
The Robotic Samurai ends up pushing Jack over and ends up using its flamethrower again hoping to create a massive amount of fire and flames, Sonic again spins up into a ball and creates a tornado to send the flames away. The blue hedgehog ends up smacking the Robotic Samurai in the face with his spikes sending the Robotic Samurai down.
"It's open!" cried Knuckles as he saw the portal.
"Now is my chance" said Jack as he was prepared to leap into the portal.
"Sonic, Knuckles, help!" cried Tails.
Poor Tails was a hostage to the Robotic Samurai as it drew its sword on the two-tailed fox.
"No one move, you are to close the portal" said the Robotic Samurai.
The Robotic Samurai laughed as it then used its jetpack to head off with Tails as its hostage.
"The portal, it's still open, don't worry we'll handle rescuing Tails" said Sonic, "maybe if you can beat Aku the Robotic Samurai won't even exist."
"No, I'm staying here" said Jack.
"But, the portal only has a limited amount of time to stay open" said Knuckles.
"I have to" said Jack to the two of them.
As the samurai ends up teaming up with Knuckles and Sonic to rescue Tails, poor Tails finds himself tied up to a tree.
"There is no way you can escape" said the Robotic Samurai "once I have finished you, your friends and the samurai, I might just take the Master Emerald for my Master Lord Aku."
"You won't get away with this" said Tails.
"I already have" continued the Robotic Samurai.
As the Robotic Samurai awaited the trio, the portal began to start to close from the Master Emerald, Jack had little time left to enter it which Aku wanted to provide Jack with another distraction.
