Veg-O-Fortress

"So, you must be Eggman's friends." Sonic said. "We'll sorry, as much as you're going to try protect your friend, I'm trying to protect mine!" Sonic tried to jump over the Egg Bosses but the Lynx grabbed his leg and throw him down.

"Don't you dare escape from Conquering Storm!" the lynx said. Sonic spin dashed into Conquering and homing attacked the snake.

"Fool!" the snake yelled, with circles coming out of his cobra hood. Sonic missed his homing attack and was on the floor. "Now knee before Lord Mordred Hood!" The water buffalo grabbed the weaken hedgehog.

"Now for the finishing blow!" he laughed, slamming Sonic into a wall. "Served by Axel the Water Buffalo!" The three Egg Bosses laughed.


Outside Mt. Mobius

Rotor shot a hole through a hole in Eggman's carved face on the mountain. Sally, Antoine, Bunnie, Amy, Knuckles, Julie and the Chaotix jumped in.

"Antoine, Bunnie and I will find and help Sonic," Sally said. "Knuckles, you, Julie and the Chaotix can look for the Master Emerald."

"Sounds like a plan," Knuckles said, with his team running off.


Veg-O-Fortress, Dimitri's room

Silver came back with the Master Emerald and plugged it in. The time machine turned on.

"It should take you back to your time period," Dimitri said. "If not… well, good luck."

"Wait, so this can take us anywhere?" Silver asked, worried.

"No, any when," Dimitri correct. "It can only take you any when in the future."

The door started banging.

"Arh! That must be the other Egg Bosses wanting you two out there, fighting!" Dimitri said.

"So it's fighting a losing battle or ending up at some random point is time…" Gold said.

"This portal won't stay open for long!" Dimitri said.

"There's my answer!" Silver said, grabbing Gold's arm and running in. The portal then closed. Vector and Mighty smashed down the door. Knuckle ran in.

"Dimitri! Where is it?" Knuckles yelled, grabbing the glass bubble.

"It… it's… right over there," Dimitri said, scared out of his life. Vector grabbed it as Knuckles dropped Dimitri and walked out.


Corridor

The three Egg Bosses were beating up Sonic. He was out numbered.

"What's the matter, hedgehog?" Axel laughed. "If you can't take one us three, there's no way you can take on Robotnik!" Sudden, he was hit on the head with a hammer. It was Amy.

"You stay away from my Sonic!" Amy yelled, knocking out Axel.

"Amy!" Sonic yelled. Antoine, Bunnie and Sally were with her. While Antoine dealt with Hood and Bunnie dealt with Conquering, Sally helped Sonic up.

"You ok?" Sally asked.

"Like some chumps are gonna keep me down, Sal," Sonic chuckled.

"If Dimitri's Kommissars were here…" Conquering said, being pinned down by Bunnie.

"Well too bad they're not!" Sonic laughed. "Time to crack an Eggman!"

"I'm coming too!" Sally said, stopping Sonic.

"What?" Sonic said, surprised.

"We need to stop Robotnik together," Sally said. "It's my father's kingdom, so I should be in this fight too!"

"Don't worry about us," Bunnie said. "We'll take these Egg Boss to the Sky Patrol so they can be sent to the detention center!"

"Right," Sonic said. "Come on, Sal. We got a Ro-Butt-Nik to beat!" Sonic and Sally both ran off deeper into the fortress while Amy, Antoine and Bunnie dragged the Egg Bosses away.


Eggman's Control Room

Eggman and Snively were talking to Dimitri, who was on the screen.

"My Kommissers refused to fight the blue hedgehog, allowed the guardian to take the Master Emerald and made a run for it!" Dimitri explained, trying to not get punished.

"Sir, I just received word from an Egg Flapper Unit that the Egg Bosses have been defeated!" Snively said. "The blue hedgehog and princess are getting closer."

"Not to worry," Eggman said, clicking his fingers. A blue, hedgehog looking robot walked up from behind. "After all, my new weapon is done! It will meet the troublesome hedgehog at Room CD93!"
