The group soon met back up with Amy in a vast flower field, awhile after they witnessed the flashback that felt all to real.

"Hey, Amy. still thinking about The Koco?" Hope asked.

"Yeah. And… more." Amy said. "I'm not sure what happened, but I know what I saw: A love that transcended time. And today wasn't the only time we saw it either. You guys remember Pogo, from when we fought Odio, right?"

"Oh yeah. He found love in Beru." Ochako said.

"And he brought that love all the way to the Middle Ages to share it with Oersted before he was put to rest. Even he was moved by it." Hope said.

"From what we understood, Oersted had a pretty rough life. Practically everyone was against him." David said.

"And after we finally managed to free him from the darkness, Pogo shared his love with Oersted." Kendo said.

"Yeah… I believe in that power that he had, as well as what we saw. And when this is over, I want to share that love with as many worlds as I can. Even though… it may take us far apart." Amy said.

"Spreading the word about what true love means everywhere? That's a really good goal to aspire to, Amy. Definitely something to go for." Erica said.

Sonic then knelt down beside her.

"I know you'll do great. I want to hear all about it when you come back." Sonic said as Amy nodded. "Now…we got a guy in a giant robot to clobber."


The group raced towards where Ian and Giganto were stationed, following Kokonoe's tracker.

"Tracker places Ian in his big ass robot, like I said, at the far back of the island…" Kokonoe said as they came to a large waterfall. "...Just over that giant waterfall."

Sonic simply smirked as he ran towards the waterfall and ran up it before landing over on the other side.

"Showoff…" Mermista smiled as the group followed him up the waterfall basin and cut deep into the island's rear. There, they saw Ian roaming about in Giganto.

"I see the emerald…it's on the top of the titan's head." Aelita said.

"Looks like Miu was right on the mark after all. But how are we gonna get it off?" Kaito asked.

"Only way we could do that would be to climb the damn thing." Zoro said.

"Let's hope Zi-O and Geiz know what they're doing." David said.

"Guess it's time." Zi-O deduced, taking out his Zikan Phone and making a call. "Ciel, how are the Time Mazines?"

"All set and ready to go." Ciel contacted. "I take it you're going to use them to fight that titan from earlier? Although it's taller than the mechs."

"Don't worry, I got that part covered." Geiz assured, taking out his Wizard Ridewatch.

"Alright. I'm opening the garage doors of the Zi-O Liner and Galaxy King immediately." Ciel replied. "Knock that titan down, guys!"

"Here we go." Zi-O said as he and Geiz began calling the Time Mazines with a few button presses on their phones.

"Wait, what exactly are you guys-?" Bow asked before a pair of uniquely shaped ships flew their way.

=TIME MAZINE!=

"AWESOME!" some of the guys marveled, seeing them for the first time.

"I was wondering when they're gonna use those again!" Ashe grinned as they saw the arrival of the Riders' vehicles, landing in front of them.

"Everyone, these are the Time Mazines. Special vehicles that are capable of traveling through time and dimensions." Starlight explained. "The one in black and pink is Zi-O's while the one in red and yellow is Geiz'."

"And let me guess, they've also got robot modes?" Catra asked.

"You figured it out already?!" Lola gawked.

"Cats have good hearing, remember? I overheard Ciel over the phone and she mentioned mechs, so I kinda guessed they transform." Catra mentioned.

"...Oh. Well that explains it." Lola noted.

"Okay. here's the plan. Zeo, Gaius, you two draw aggro from Ian. While he's distracted, we'll send somebody to climb up Giganto from behind and snag the Purple Emerald atop its head." Adora said. "Once Sonic goes Super, that's our cue for us all to engage and take the titan down."

"Hibiki, GV, watch over Sonic as he goes for the Chaos Emerald." Zi-O advised.

"Got it./Leave it to us!" Gunvolt and Hibiki nodded.

(Cue: Titan: Giganto- Sonic Frontiers)

"Now…let's get to work." Sonic said, before the Riders boarded the Time Mazines… and activated their vehicles' Battle Mode, turning them into bipedal mechs with the Riders' Ridewatches as the heads.

=BATTLE MODE!=

The group then dived into the large bowl arena and ran straight towards Giganto, who, piloted by Ian, looked at the group approaching and spotted them.

GIGANTO

IAN CARUSO

"I was wondering when you all would come scurrying back." Ian said. "Haven't been humiliated enough?"

"That wasn't humiliation, that was a tactical retreat." Copen stated. "But now… we're ready for you."

"Fine. I may as well take care of my bosses' business so you don't bother them." Ian said as Giganto pulled back an arm and punched right into the ground as the group scattered to avoid it.

"Hey, Ian! Remember me? The one who nearly shot you in the head?" Zi-O shouted. "Pretty nice big titan you got there! Too bad we have to break it!"

"Please, your tiny little bot can't stand to the power of a Titan!" Ian said going for a punch.

"...I'd beg to differ." Geiz answered, beginning to activate the Wizard Ridewatch from inside his mech.

=WIZARD!=

=ARMOR TIME!=

Geiz then donned the Wizard Armor from within his Mech. the Wizard Ridewatch then projected as a larger version and then replaced the Geiz Ridewatch atop the mech's body.

=PLEASE! WIZARD!=

"And now for my next trick…" Geiz's mech then summoned a magic circle below him with his hand which is enough to cover him and Zi-O.

=BIG! PLEASE!=

And after the magic circle enveloped the two mechs, they grew larger to the same size as Gigantio. "Hehe, don't you just love magic?" Geiz chuckled.

"Now why don't you try picking on somebody your own size, Ian!" Zi-O added as the mechs grabbed the oncoming punch and delivered an overhead slam to the ground.

"Now if only they'd use that during the Bayonetta adventure…" Chris muttered. "Oh wait, they couldn't because the Galaxy King has the Zi-O Liner."

"You two think you're so clever!" Ian said as they matched blow for blow. "Hmm…pesky little heroes. Seems brute force isn't going to cut it with you…so let's up the ante!" he said, pulling a switch as pylons popped out all across Giganto's body as lasers could be seen coming from them.

"Geez…he's really going all out." Sonic said as he ran up Giganto's back and dodging the lasers before reaching the Purple Chaos Emerald.

"I am the one who battles for Amadeus and Techno Flux. I am Ian Caruso!" Ian declared as he fired laser blasts at the two mechs, only for Geiz to block the lasers with a magic shield.

"Looks like it's time to stop dragging my feet." Sonic said as the seven Chaos Emeralds spun around him before he transformed into the golden Super Sonic.

(Music Shift: Undefeatable - Sonic Frontiers)

"He turned gold?!" Houki gasped at the sight of Super Sonic.

"Yeah, that's the power of all seven Chaos Emeralds together." Starlight answered.

"Ah…so the hedgehog comes to fight. Fine then." Ian said as he smashed his hands together as Sonic was caught in it. "Time to eat!" he said as Giganto tried to bite down on Sonic only for the hedgehog to break out and send the titan stumbling backwards.

"Now our chance! Charge!" Adora called to the ground team.

"Sorry…but your story just ended!" Ian called out to the ground team before firing a beam from his mouth right at them.

However, Sonic zoomed right in front of it before diverting it and bombarding the titan.

"So, you wanna fire beams with your mouth, huh?" Starlight smirked, flying towards Giganto's mouth while rotating her PreBrace. "Here's my answer to that!" She used her strength to open the titan's mouth and then unleashed a powerful beam of her own right onto it before flying back.

"Ah!" Ian said as the titan had taken a large amount of damage. "Not good…I've taken too much damage."

"Yeah…and this show is over!" Sonic called out as he flew right into Giganto, blowing a big hole right through its chest.

"Ah! Eject!" Ian said, pressing a button as he was ejected in a pod. After that, Giganto started sparking and exploding all over the place. After that, it was enveloped in red light before it completely blasted into nothing.

(end song)

After the battle, everyone suddenly got another flash of a memory in their heads, seeing a Female Ancient inside what looked like Giganto's cockpit.

"No! We'll find another way!" she called out in her native tongue.

"Whoa…that was…odd." Jexi said as they saw Ian flying above.

"You may have bested me…but you will not succeed against the others." Ian called out as he flew off.

"Others…right. They said 'Titans'. Plural." Sonic said.

"Thy next foe awaits on the sand-scarred island." they heard the mysterious voice say.

"Really? Deserts again?" Zi-O questioned as the Time Mazines reverted back to normal size.

"I think we might be going on another desert campaign someday." Kiana remarked.

"I think the island we gotta go to next would be Ares Island. It isn't far from here." Connor said.

"Let's see how Amy's doing before we leave this island." Shirabe said.

"Don't need to go far." Aelita said as they saw Amy was still the same as they left her. "Seems beating the Titan's not enough to reset this."

"Then we'll have to beat the rest of them down." Laura deduced.

"Then let's head out. You gonna be okay here by yourself for a bit, Amy?" Gemini asked.

"I'll be okay. I'm feeling more like myself, it's working. You guys keep going and don't keep me waiting." Amy said.

"We'll be back before you can do a Fortune Card reading." DW typed.

"Oh... So, you know I used to do that kind of thing." Amy said.

"We… may have heard about it. We won't tease you or anything, everybody's got hobbies." Mai said.

"Nothing wrong with that." Al said.

"See ya later, Amy!" Kaibara said as everyone headed for the ships to get to Ares Island, Sonic already ahead of them.


"Well…seems Ian's gone and dropped the ball…not a surprise." Flux said, watching the footage. "Seems our heroes have made some new friends. No matter." he said, pushing a button. "Fett, it's your bosses. Ian's out of commission. They're headed your way next."

On Ares island….

"Let 'em come, Flux." Boba said as he stood with Priyan as hundreds of her manifested soldiers stood with them. "We're ready for 'em."
