Sonic and Freeze exited the cave and walk back to the others. Sonic hid be hide a tree as he saw them. "Sonic?". "…what if they act like Blaze?". Freeze kiss Sonic on the cheek and grab his hand. "they might or might not. You'll never know standing here. Now come on" said Freeze as she pulled Sonic from be hide the tree. Sonic soon felt scared as he walk with Freeze to the dropship. "hey guys" said Sonic. Everyone turn and took battle position as they saw Sonic. Freeze saw this and step in front of Sonic. "don't attack!". "Move Freeze! That thing may attack any minute!" yelled Knuckles. Suddenly Tails and Amy join Freeze. "don't you dare hurt Sonic!" said Amy. "Sonic!" said everyone in shock. "yeah! If the power of the chaos are drain when Sonic is using them, he'll turn into the Werehog" said Tails. Everyone whisper to each other and then turn to Sonic. Knuckles step forward and clear his throat. "…sorry. We didn't know". "…it's okay". everyone turn and sat in their seats as the dropship took off. Sonic could hear the others whispering and trying not to look at him. Sonic could see the fear in their eyes and look away. Sonics heart drop as he turn to Blaze who was sitting by herself at the end of the right side of rows of seats. Blaze was trying not to look at Sonic but couldn't look away and both their eyes met. Blaze quickly turn to her side and lower her head. Sonic shed a tear and look down. Suddenly Sonic felt Freeze grabbing his hand. "Sonic…". Sonic turn to her and saw her smiling. Blaze turn her head and saw Sonic smiling at Freeze. Blaze then turn away and cried quietly. The dropship dock in the hanger bay and Sonic saw Breeze and two others rushing Light to the med-wing. Sonic and the others was waiting outside the med-wing for awhile and soon Breeze and Maiev exited the room and turn to Sonic. "…we're losing him…Sonic. He wants to see you before he dies" said Breeze. Sonic enter the room and saw Light on the bed. "…Sonic…". "Light. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry what I did…" said Sonic as he fell to his knees. "…its okay Sonic. I live long enough…anyway, you must stop Nazo from finding the prime world". "Prime world?". "the prime world is where all dimension are from. Hidden there is the holy object". "you mean the dimensional emerald". "…show he told you then. Yes. If Nazo corrupts the dimensional emerald then all life across all dimensions is doom to be destroy". "then where is he? We have no time to waste!". "…Nazo is heading to my world as we speak. In the east, far from the holy land of the fallen. There's a ancient forest where a old temple is located. He's going to use the emeralds power to make the temple open the pathway to the prime world". "okay but how can we get there? We been jumping randomly across dimensions". Light rose his hand and drop what looks like a flash drive into Sonics hands. "…use this…it's a map of all dimensions…". "okay! I promise we'll stop Nazo!". Sonic was about to leave till Light stop him. "…hold on…you must seek out a dark blue master emerald…she named Aqua…she has the key to enter our world…also Sonic…when you guys leave this world…all of you will age five years…because this world has no time…to you guys…it feels like five hours has pass nut in truth it has been five years…" said Light as he started to disappear. "wait! I have some many questions about you and Nazo". "…take my sword…you'll see into the past and fully learn what happen…don't be sad Sonic…my body might be gone but my soul will remain…" said Light as he fully disappear. Soon a white emerald landed between Sonics feet. Sonic pick up the emerald and the sword and walk out of the med-wing. "he's gone but he left us a map where we can find Nazo but we must seek out a dark blue master emerald. There we will get the key to enter Lights world. Tails here. Download this information into the computer system" said Sonic as he toss the drive to Tails. "got it!". Sonic then look around and didn't saw Tikal or Jumper. "hey! Where's Jumper and Tikal?". suddenly Sonic saw everyone looking away. "…I see". Sonic turn to Breeze and Ami. "…I'm sorry". Breeze hold back her tears while Ami shed a tear. Sonic then turn to everyone else. "…guys. Shadow has…". "we know Sonic. Rouge told us what happen in the vault" said Espio. "…I see". "…so what are we going to do to Shadow when we cross paths? Kill him?" said Zell. "we can't-". "we can't do that! Sure Shadows is cold to us and hardly hang out with us but he's still our friend no matter what!" said Sonic as he finish Rouge sentence. Sonic then turn to Rouge and gave her the thumbs up. "I'll bring him back Rouge! I promise on my life!". tears fell from Rouge eyes and she wipe them away. "…thank you Sonic".
Everyone gather on the bridge and stood up as Sonic enter and wearing a black cloak. "everyone! Not only did we lost to Nazo today but we also lost friends who were dear to us. Some of them gave their lives to protect us while the other has fallen into the darkness. I know some of you are starting to think why we're fighting. We're fighting not just for our dimension but all dimensions. If we fall then every single life is doom! I know night fall has come but there is always hope that the morning dawn will rise. Dawn of a better tomorrow". everyone started to clap and sat back down in their seats. "Ami. Lets go!". "roger Commander. Chaos control in 5 4 3 2 1 0! CHAOS CONTROL!". within the jump drive, Lights emerald started to glow and the ship was cover in a white flash. The Hyperion disappear as the sun set over the horizon and day became night. Night fall has arrive.
