Episode 19

Previously on Sonic The Hedgehog - Chaos on Mobius...
Eggman sent Metal Sonic to try and find Scourge, who was on Angel Island and fast approaching Hidden Palace. As the Freedom Fighters took part in the Battle of the Bands, the Chaotix were overwhelmed by Scourge, who stuck the Scepter of Darkness on top of the Master Emerald! This caused Knuckles to change into something darker than anything Mobius has ever seen before... "I am Enerjak, the one being who has the power to reduce all of Mobius to a planet of FLAMES!"
With Knuckles turning against his traditions and the Chaotix out for the count, can the Freedom Fighters overwhelm Enerjak? Find out next on Sonic The Hedgehog - Chaos on Mobius!

Chapter Nineteen: Ultimate Power Has Arrived (Part One of Enerjak's Reign)

Shadow, Rouge and Omega had arrived outside Knothole when Shadow stopped walking...
"Shadow, what's wrong?" Rouge asked him.
"I sense a disturbance in the Chaos Force..." He replied.
"CONFIRMED. DETECTING LARGE ENERGY SPIKE ORIGINATING FROM ANGEL ISLAND." Stated Omega.
"Hmm... (I wonder if my appentice has sensed this aswell...)" Shadow thought as he looked up at Angel Island.

Meanwhile on Angel Island, Scourge was now chuckling at the sight of Enerjak.
"Scourge, now is not the time to be enjoying yourself." Said the voice from within the Scepter of Darkness.
"Aw, c'mon Master, surely I can have a little fun with this." Scourge asked, unaware that a certain blue robot was watching him...
"No, Scourge." Said the voice. "Your next task is to protect Enerjak from anyone that may harm him..."
"What? But why? I thought you wanted to see Enerjak destroy Mobius."
"Hardly. I merely want to absorb his power."
"Ah. So you can come back."
"Exactly, young Scourge. Now, you must confront-" The voice was inturrupted by Metal Sonic shoving Scourge to the ground.
"*spit* What the..? You?" Asked Scourge after he spat out some dirt.
"WHATEVER YOU ARE PLANNING BETTER BE FOR THE GOOD OF THE EGGMAN EMPIRE." Metal Sonic warned.
"Ha. I'm not crawlin' back to that tub of lard!" Scourge replied before Spin Dashing into Metal Sonic. When Scourge looked back at Enerjak, he was gone. "NO! Enerjak's gone!"
"You fool! I told you to make peace with him!" Yelled the voice.
"Hey, you didn't know that bucket of bolts was there, either!" Scourge angrily replied.
"RETURN TO THE EGGMAN EMPIRE, OF FACE ANNIHILATION." Said Metal Sonic.
"Not a chance!" Scourge replied as he ran towards Metal Sonic.

Within Castle Acorn, TodStar was still moving and shaking in pain.
"Try to stay still, TodStar..." Amy told him.
"Ngh... I can't, Amy..." He struggled to reply. "The pain's that bad."
"No offence Your Majesty, but I don't see how you can make our man TodStar feel any better..." Sonic told the King.
"Our medical expertise is more skilled than you think, Sonic." Elias replied. Suddenly, TodStar stopped moving violently.
"The pain... just vanished..." He pointed out. "...I don't like how fast it left..."
"What are you saying, TodStar?" Asked Sally.
"I dunno... but I reckon the worst is yet to come..." TodStar replied as he looked up at Angel Island.

At that moment, Eggman was getting nice and comfy in his chair on the bridge of the Egg Carrier.
"Ahh... It feels to good to know that Metal Sonic shall be returning with Scourge and the rod shortly." He said.
"Uhh, boss?" Asked Orbot.
"Yes, Orbot?" Eggman happily replied.
"I feel compelled to point out that Metal Sonic is currently fighting Scourge on Angel Island."
"WHAT? WHY?"
"Well, here is Metal Sonic's latest transmission..." Orbot said while he was bringing up the message.
"Aw, c'mon Master, surely I can have a little fun with this." Said Scourge through Metal Sonic's transmission. "What? But why? I thought you wanted to see Enerjak destroy Mobius."
"Enerjak? Who is Scourge talking to?" Eggman asked.
"I'm not sure, boss." Orbot replied. "I've raised the volume as high as possible to hear a second voice, but I haven't found anything..."
"Enerjak. Hmm... I'll need to do some research on him..." Eggman pointed out before Cubot came flying onto the bridge in a panic.
"Yo, Doc Egg-Head! We gotta problem, you dig?" He told Eggman.
"If you address me as EggMAN, then I dig." Eggman replied.
"Get this: Some dude called Enerjak is flying behind us." Cubot replied.
"I wondered what that was that I detected..." Orbot pointed out.
"You detected wha-oh, never mind. Launch the Egg Flappers! I want that Enerjak destroyed!" Eggman ordered. "By the way, WHY AM I STILL HEARING YOUR VOICE?"
"Whoa dog, all I did was copy the voice chip into my system." Cubot replied, which ticked Eggman off.

Soon, a large number of small, flying robots (with their Sonic Colours -Wii version- design) had flown out of the Egg Carrier to face Enerjak (Knuckles).
"Hmph. This is what the great Dr. Eggman threatens me with? Pathectic." He said before unleashing a large number of Thunder Arrows at the Egg Flappers, destroying them instantly! Before Enerjak could attack the Egg Carrier, he was hit by a Chaos Spear. "You think you can stop me? You're nothing but a harmless Mobian to me!"
"I am the Ultimate Lifeform." Said the thrower of the Chaos Spear as he removed his Inhibitor Rings. "And you shall fall by my hands."
"Quick! While Shadow's distracting Enerjak, we can make a run for it!" Eggman pointed out.
"But isn't running away cowardly?" Asked Orbot.
"Yeah. And I don't wanna be seen as a cowardly idiot!" Cubot added.
"Just shut up and get us back to Robotropolis! NOW!" Eggman ordered. As the Egg Carrier fled the scene, Shadow was now fighting Enerjak with everything he had... and TodStar sensed it.
"Master..." He muttered back with the medical wing of Castle Acorn.

Back on Angel Island, Metal Sonic was now struggling to fight Scourge.
"Sorry bolt-brain, but our fight ends HERE!" Said Scourge as he shoved his fist through Metal Sonic's chest and pulled out a Chaos Emerald, making Metal Sonic shut down and fall to the ground.
"A Chaos Emerald..." Said the voice within the Scepter of Darkness.
"What of it?" Scourge asked.
"If you can find all seven of these Scourge, I can be free once more." The voice replied. Scourge then looked into the valley infront of Hidden Palace, when Shadow and Enerjak had just appeared. And Shadow had just passed out while holding a Chaos Emerald.
"Another Chaos Emerald." Scourge pointed out before grinning. "You can count on me, Master."

At that moment in Castle Acorn, a Mobian of some sort was approaching TodStar's bed. It was a red echidna girl, with small glasses, and one of her dreadlocks was tied in several sections. She also wore a blue sleeveless jacket, with a darker shirt underneath it, and blue boots.
"Wha? Who are you?" He asked her.
"Shh! Here. You'll need these, Uncle TodStar..." She told him as she handed him two Chaos Emeralds.
"Chaos Emeralds? Uncle? Who in the Realm of Iblis are you?" TodStar asked again.
"Someone you'll meet in about 15 years... Chaos CONTROL!" She replied before leaving the room using Chaos Control.
"15 years, eh? Hopefully, I can help save Mobius AND my brother by then..." TodStar thought to himself as he looked up at Angel Island again. "Ngh, I'll leave these here for Sonic. I have to save my brother. Chaos... CONTROL!" Shortly after TodStar got to his feet, he used Chaos Control to travel to Angel Island.
