Mobotropolis, Sky Patrol

The Freedom Fighters were having a meeting.

"GUN has told us that they have taken out most of the Dark Legion on Angel Island," Sally said. "Only a small party escaped."

"So what are zee next steps we will be taking to ensure victory?" Antoine asked.

"We need to take out the remaining Egg Bosses!" Sally said.

"Which are all of them…" Nicole added.

"Besides Dimitri," Rotor said.

"Who was is, presumed, to be replaced with Kragok, who was part of the party that escaped." Nicole said.

"Egg Bosses we need to look for are Lord Hood, Axel the Water Buffalo, the Grand Battle Kukku XV, who we presumed has taken over for Dimitri, Clove and Cassia, the Pronghorn Twins, A.D.A.M., who may have also taken over instead of XV, and Conquering Storm!" Sally said.

"I say we go for Conquering first," Sonic said. "We haven't heard alot about her since Eggman's defeat! We know the others have been busy, Tails knows that more than anyone, be know nothing about her!"

"Same can be said for XV and A.D.A.M!" Rotor said.

"Here's what we'll do," Sally said. "Sonic, Tails and Amy will go over to Yurashia and fight Conquering while Rotor, Antoine and Bunnie use the Sky Patrol to hunt down XV. And Nicole will search the Internet and try and gain access to the Eggnet to find A.D.A.M."

"What about you, Sal?" Bunnie asked.

"Daddy wants me to help him to set up for a royal meeting today," Sally said. "If I could, I would help you guys but sadly, I can't because of something I can't control."

"Don't worry, Sal," Sonic smiled. "We can get the job done!"


Yurashia, Chun-nan

Rotor and the Sky Patrol dropped off Sonic, Tails and Amy. The three of them walked through the city. They notice that alot of crime had been happening, with Lynx Ninja everywhere. They reached a temple, named, Raiju Temple. They walked inside.


Raiju Temple

Conquering Storm was sitting on one of two thrones. The other one was empty. Raiju Ninja were standing all around the temple.

"So the Freedom Fighters have finally come to take me away?" Conquering smiled.

"We're not here to fight…" Amy said.

"Then why are you here?" Conquering asked. "So then you end my bit of the Egg Army? So then you can put me in a tiny cell for the rest of my days? Because, if so, you did come to fight!"

"I guess we did come to fight…" Sonic whispered to Tails.

"My clan is no laughing matter," Conquering said. "Once, there was four different clans… there are only 3 now!"

"What happened to the others?" Tails asked.

"My champion lead my clan to victory," Conquering smiled. A silhouette of a Lynx walked up to the throne. "On our mistake, there is one member of each clan that we didn't kill, as all of them had left already."

"So we asked Lien-Da, Hood, Axel and Clove to take care of the bat for us!" the owner of the silhouette said. "They did it for free as they had their own reason…"

"You!" Sonic yelled. "Lightning Lynx!"

The Lynx stepped out of the darkness and into the light, smiling.

"You will fight my champion," Conquering said. "If we win, you leave this temple and us alone, unless you want a rematch. If you win, somehow, I will, not only leave the people of the country alone until the fatman returns, if he ever does, I will banish my champion!"

Sonic and Lightning started fighting.

"I allowed you back into the clan, Lightning," Conquering yelled. "You better not let me down!" Behind one of the Ninja, a small Lynx was watching.

"So what happened to the Destructix?" Sonic asked, throwing a punch.

"Fang ran off for himself!" Lightning said. "But we replaced him. Weapon expert as well! Infact, he's got your little friends in a bit trouble there!" Sonic turned around. There was Sleuth Dawg, pinning Tails down and holding a gun to his head. Simian held Amy in place, with Predator and Flying also there. While was looking the other way, Lightning kicked him in the back of the head.

"Victory to Raiju!" Conquering laughed, clapping, leading Lightning to the other throne. The Destructix cheered, letting go of the Freedom Fighters. "As for the Freedom Fighters, get out of our sight!" Sonic, injured, walked out, with Tails and Amy helping him.

"Hey, Sonic," Lightning yelled. "You're welcome to come back for a rematch, when you learn how to fight!"

"That guy gave you guys trouble?" Sleuth laughed. The small Lynx ran after the Freedom Fighters.


Outside the Temple

The three of them walked out.

"We're not giving up that easily!" Sonic said.

"He got Raiju training!" Tails said. "He much stronger now!"

"So can beat him," Amy said. "He can do anything!" She looked at him, dreamily.

"You really think you can beat the improved Lightning so easily?" a voice asked. The small Lynx walked towards them.

"And you are?" Sonic asked.

"My name is Larry Lynx!" the Lynx said. "I've dreamed of becoming a Freedom Fighter like you guys, but those dreams were crushed when the Egg Army took over and forced me to join the Raiju Clan!"

"No they weren't!" Sonic said. "You can help us defeat the Raiju!"

"That's why I came here," Larry said. "Lightning is only more powerful because he has a powerpack on his back, making him stronger."

"I didn't see one," Tails said.

"That's because it has a cloaking device on it!" Larry explained. "Kick the device and it'll explode!"

"Thanks!" Sonic smiled, running into the temple.


Raiju Temple

"You did a good job there, Lightning," Conquering said, with Lightning sitting on the throne besides her.

"I did?" Lightning asked.

"You've more than proven yourself back into the clan!" Conquering smiled. Sonic ran in.

"Yo, Lightning," Sonic smiled. "Rematch, now, same conditions, same rewards!"

"Alright then," Lightning laughed. The fight started, however, Sonic ran around, kicking him in the back, making the powerpack exploded, sending Lightning down.

"Victory for the Freedom Fighters," Conquering said. "Lightning is, therefore, Raiju no more…"

"No!" Lightning said. "I love…"

"Do not humiliate yourself further, Lightning," Conquering said, regrettable. "Leave with your Destructix…" The Destructix grabbed Lightning, who was in tears as he was banished from his home again, and ran. Sonic walked out to greet his friends.

"Thanks for that, Larry," Sonic said. "You'd make a good Freedom Fighter!"

"Thank you," Larry laughed. "I've been told that I'm a jinx. I guess that's true, for them!"


Bonus Story: Battling Battle Birds Pt.1

Sky Patrol

Rotor was driving the ship and giving orders.

"Antoine, check the radar for the Battle Birds!" Rotor ordered.

"Oui," Antoine said, running to the radar. "How do I use zee radar, again?"

"Bunnie, get the turrets ready!" Rotor ordered.

"Right away," Bunnie said. "Ah' get those turrets ready before you can say…" The ship rumbled, as if it was just grabbed by claw. The three of them felt the ship move upwards. The notice they were being moved into a larger ship. There was banging on the door, until it was blown up.

"What do we have here?" XV asked, walking in with some troops. "Non-winged creatures flying in the sky? We can't have that now!"
