Good evening fans, Big Red here with a new chapter. And instead of a recap, let me give off a little warning in regards to the process of these chapters. Keep in mind when I say that when a new chapter will be available on Friday, it WON'T be done immediately since you have to take into account the editorial process of everything after typing by paragraphs and real life stuff. I can understand that some of you are excited to see the story finally progress, but you seriously have to think about how things are going when things aren't on time. I mean, I was previously having issues bringing the last few here because of 's own processing failures. Think of this a little warning before I become the new Dr. Ivo Robotnik. That being said, all I can say is that the airship battle will finally commence and the ending can bring so much emotions. So please take a look and enjoy the new chapter.

The heroes were now flying towards the very fortress that was the target for their rescue mission that looms above them with its imposing figure. A good eighty-five feet was now their current distance from the ship without any sign of enemies due to the the villains of the ship making their right move for it. The skies were perfectly clear unlike the stormier weather during a previous sky chase against the first Egg Carrier as Tails hoped that nothing would go wrong for his plan. Like old times, Gear would be standing atop the back of his biplane like his old friend would since he's determined to meet up with the Blue Blur Amy's been talking about. The blue haired boy would watch the billows of clouds below him to have that feel of soaring high beyond the clouds.

"Even though it's a bit late, I would like to thank you for being able to hitch a ride with me Gear. It brings back so many memories that I'd love to relive if he were here. You know, everything about you reminds me so much of Sonic now that I think about. Even you are standing in the same position as him," the fox said loudly.

Gear would focus his attention on Tails and grew flattered by his words.

"I'm glad that I can help. Amy personally told me that it was best for me to help you since it would make the experience a bit better. And speaking of memories, most of your personality traits reminds me of an old friend I used to have. But unlike him, I'll make sure that we won't lose Sonic forever," he replied.

Deep down, Gear still haven't forgotten that fateful day his friend died at the hands of Ninteldo soldiers and hearing that they would be working with Eggman was more than enough of a reason to help them fight. Tails however nods and focus his attention on the ship before him since he's glad that he has the right friend to help for this task. Kirby and Dedede were both ready for their targets ahead of them as they flew the larger Warpstar with the neighboring Vectorman carrying his undead pal with one arm like it's no issue. This Orbot was trained to fight a variety of dangerous situations and it can feel free to shoot anything while carrying something as heavy as a slab of concrete with one hand alone. Beat and Gum would be flying side by side in their flying vehicles with their eyes set for the future and a mysterious vehicle fly past them at high speed. The two rudies nearly lost control due to the force of that machine's speed and quickly regained altitude before an accident was made.

"Hey! Try flying somewhere where someone isn't, you sky hog!" she yelled.

That ship would be a massive cruiser containing the Chaotix with technology close enough to the G.U.N.'s vehicles and massive black wings for knocking smaller machines away. Vector and Espoo would be seated in the front with Mighty and Charmy in the backseats since they were the rookies of the group. The crocodile had no time for apologies since he was still trying to get used to flying this thing compared to the blimp they would normally use for sky trouble.

"Uh Vector, don't you think you need to slow down and be concerned for bumping into other fliers?" the bee asked.

"Charmy, how many times do I have to tell you? A real detective has to do things in their own way regardless of any danger involved. I'm sure those two will eventually get over it by time we actually make it through their waves of fighters," Vector replied.

On the current subject, Mighty notice that there weren't a single fighter in sight as if the villains never expected anyone to come at all and found this too suspicious

"Forget about apologies but, don't you find it strange how Eggman and his pals aren't using his forces on us just yet? We are getting so close to it and it seems like he's making it easy for us," the worried armadillo said.

Espio looks around the perimeter quickly like his ninja reflexes to see if there were any other enemies form the side.

"You may be right Mighty, not a single enemy is even in the skies. I have a feeling that they may have a special trap planned for us when we do get close enough," he said in a serious manner.

All four members would then notice Honey and Ryo drawing near them with his newly transformed hovercycle.

"Nice ride, I knew that you all would have something that's pretty fitting for expert detectives like yourselves," the Japanese boy replied.

Vector laughs at Ryo's flattery while rushing his scaly temple in astonishment.

"Thank you for your kind words, Hazuki. This Choatix Black Hawk was something we've been working on since the beginning of the Subspace Invasion and it would be perfect for fast travel with the best weaponry around. Though I can admit that I'm a little blimp-sick since flying this thing was a real hassle for the past few weeks," he replied.

"Or maybe it's because Vector felt the need to rush with the specs instead of taking his time properly. Like we could have had the proper shields installed, but he felt that it would take too long to install them," Mighty beamed.

Vector turned to his partner in annoyance and said, "Because it would take long. Would you prefer if we came late to the party instead of being fully prepared?"

Ryo shakes his head with smile as Honey laughs at their silly argument. Then a special message would be riding on the devices of their vehicles in the middle of this.

"What, we have a message already?" Vector exclaimed.

Every other flyer within this team were getting the same alert message from the G.U.N. fleet to the heroes in their Transformed vehicles which is a sign that someone important wanted to speak with them.

"Everyone, pick up the signal and see who it is!" Rouge ordered from Team Dark's G.U.N. tank.

The signals would pick up for every flier and a familiar voice spoke to them.

"Is everyone there? I would like to have a specific word with you all about this silence," Selvaria said.

"This is Tails. And I too have something to say about the situation before us. He doesn't seem to be sending anyone out yet."

"Just be on your guard everyone. I have a feeling that he's watching you, waiting for the right time to play his cards like a real strategist. But my only order for you all at this moment is to be prepared and dodge whatever he tries to hit you with," Selvaria replies.

Axel thinks about that secret weapon that he borrowed from his police crew and waits for the first target that he would want to test it on. Dedede gulps while holding his hammer since he wants to be prepared for whatever defenses he'll bust through. G still focuses on the ship ahead while driving his flying van despite feeling a little upset from his conflict back on the ship. He knew that everyone is counting on him and he has passengers behind him to not only protect, but help maneuver for when they want to shoot from outside the windows. Satan, Schezo, and Arle still use the energy they have to fly their machine of Puyo with their magic while looking form their spots for any enemies.

"Selvaria, how are you able to see everything from back here and not Morte and Azel? Is the eyesight for Valkyrian people like you that good?" Amy asked.

Selvaria could feel a deep silence in her heart after hearing her savior's words. She thought back to that same moment when she was being healed by Amy's power and that moment when she stood up for her after Ramirez seemingly wounds her at Outrun Bay.

"Trust me Amy, I know what I can see and feel thanks to my special blood. Just follow my lead and I'll make sure that all of you complete this mission without fail. Stay determined and never let your weakness show before your enemies," she replied.

Amy understood her words well and focus on the bigger picture before her while she has her hammer hidden in a special place for this fight. As for what the villains were really doing aboard the imposing mothership, they were watching the heroes the entire time just to get a glimpse of what they are dealing with. Eggman would feel the least intimidated about the thirty something individuals heading their way with small ships and little notable weapons to stop them. Wily and Nefarious would feel glad that they were here so that their henchmen can have some well deserved fun with them once they draw closer to the ship. Dr. Z strokes his beard once again with his usual wicked smile as the devious Bad Boon would be arguing with his partner on the communicator to inform the other monkeys to prepare for battle stations.

"Oooooohohohohoho! This is exactly what we've been waiting for, boys. The traitor is leading these heroes with her commands while little does she know that we have more than enough manpower to defeat them. Dedede may have told them a thing or two about what we've been doing, but have have more than enough surprises to stop them if they think this will be anything but easy. So make sure you tell your men to get ready while I inform every machinery on this ship to fulfill their purpose," Eggman says in excitement.

"Shouldn't you tell Nack and the others that it's their turn to protect this ship? That is, assuming that they are already informed on this," Wily asked.

"Not to worry Wily dear friend, they should already know by now since I told them to be watching everything from the deck they are meant to protect. As for the fighters and Egg Pawn that are aboard this ship, I just have to press a certain button so that all of them can give them trouble. What you need to do is to tell your Robot Masters and other robotic minions to help out since our time is now," the fat scientist replied.

Wily would respond to this by laughing in his sinister tone and shake hands with his partner in crime.

"Very well Dr. Eggman, I'll inform my machines that its time to give them hell with their deadliest weapons. I will really make sure that Mega Man won't earn the upper hand this time," he said.

He would watch as Bad Boon and Dr. Z were done talking into their devices and looked at their superiors.

"Don't mind me, just telling my prehistoric hunters to prepare their best dinosaurs for battle. They've been hungry for a bloody fight for a while and it will be lucky if they can arrive here without any trouble from the aerial forces," the paleo-scientist replied.

Bad Boon could do nothing but smile since his assistant could inform him that every henchman is ready to fight and the traps were well set in the first floor.

"Reeheeeheehee, ruughruugh rughraghreaaaaaggh!" he replied in his usual primate speech.

"Then that's settled, everyone should be ready for one heck of a performance as we watch those fools struggle to make their way here. I was able to tell Lawrence that every one that serves me should be prepared to blow them out of the skies with their ships. The technology alone should be advanced enough to take whatever pathetic shots they got since anything from the deepest part of the galaxy should be impossible to them to face," Nefarious said while checking out his fellow allies.

Eggman would put his fingers together like true seeming genius to celebrate everyone's preparations for this special day. Then he would get a private message of his own from his own device and saw that it was from his only robotic henchmen with no weaponry.

Good, just the two machines I needed to speak to since they are in charge of watching everything with us.

"Orbot! Cubot! Are the two of you bolt heads done making sure the Egg Pawn are ready for the future?" he said into the device.

"Sure Dr. Eggman sir, we are making sure our toughest men are ready to break some sprit from those heroes?" a country voice replied.

It was another sign that Cubot's voice is messing up as usual.

"Ignoring Cubot's usual problems, I can say that Metal Sonic becoming impatient with waiting since he's back to his usual tantrums again. Should I tell him the bad news or try calming him down?" Orbot nervously said.

Eggman could understand that his greatest creation is still going through his rebellious phase as usual, just like what Wily's going through with Bass before he met them.

"Just don't tell him a thing and use those chutes so the two of you can watch the show where we are. He'll eventually blow off some steam after destroying enough of my machinery. Just focus more on the bigger priorities like watching Nack and my army tear those heroes apart before they make it here," the scientist replied.

"Roger that, sir. I'll tell Cubot about it before that blue rebel finds out himself. I can see how you can deal with his attitude all the time," he said before screaming.

The signal would be cut off and Eggman can assign that they were on there way here as ordered. Then he would would towards his control panel to look for that right button he needs to activate the ship's defensive mechanisms. The man has a devious grin on his face and the excitement of a madman to show that he's ready to show everyone why he's the leader of this operation.

"And now the real fun begins! Commence Operation Final Egg!" he yells before slamming his fist onto the massive green button before him.

The heroes would be drawing near the ship ahead of them at a closer distance than before with a good ten minutes until they can finally get aboard. Tails could feel his victory getting close while also staying on a lookout for any enemies that would get in her way. Shadow had a bad feeling about this since Eggman's army had been a bit too silent for these past few minutes. Omega and Gamma would quickly look around the areas before them with their scanners while having their weapons ready for taking down any target. The three heavy weapon leaders would look around the area, Toejam and Opa Opa looking around for any signs of living contact.

Vyse would notice something coming his way from a distance and quickly told everyone to "Move! Something's about to hit us!"

Everyone would grow cautious and split apart before a massive bolt of energy beams past them, with the G.U.N. fleet and Ratchet reacting on to that surprise attack.

"Guys are you ok? Clank was able to catch on to some high energy readings out of that last shot!" the Lombax replied.

Knuckles and Amy would keep looking ahead of them to see what was the main source of that surprise attack.

"Whatever that was, I doubt it came from the ship itself unless a certain unit of theirs got advanced weaponry on their side," the echidna replied in anger.

"Guys, I see what it is! It came from that black hovercraft floating above the deck!" Shou shouts.

Ryo, G, Axel, Billy, the Space Reporters, Bonanza Bros, ChuChus, Alis, Shadow, Tails, Kirby, and the Puyo Pop Trio's groups would see the main source before them. It was a purple weasel standing atop his upgraded hovercraft looking through a scope for his next shot. Right beside him would be another craft of the same technology ridden by Zavok since his dragon was destroyed by NiGHTS from their last encounter. Tails would see this with his own his eyes with his heart racing in anger given his last encounter with this wily weasel.

"It's him. Nack was the one that almost blasted us away with that shot. I can tell Eggman must have been spoiling him lately with these new toys of his'," he said.

"Good thing you all managed to catch on to that cheap trick. I was able to tell you all beforehand, but Vyse was able to inform you at the right time. Stay on your toes since more of his forces should be coming soon," Selvaria said through everyone's devices.

Then many aerial fighters from around the ship would dispense out of the slots from below and the sides of it, along with the deadlier cannons of the ship being revealed to aim towards the heroes that approach it. Most of these fighters would include Nefarious fighters, Egg Fighters, Egg Carrier Jets, Tellies, Bladers, Flappers, Prop-Tops, Airships, Bullet Bills, Buzz Bombers, Spinners, Spikers, Flamers, Mettaur DX, Heli Mettaurs, Flying Shells, Bomb Fliers, Pipis, Battons, Boom Booms, Para-Biddybuds, Paragoombas, and Koopa Paratroopas. These fliers were among the best of the best and worst enemies to the very heroes these minions opposed and the stronger non-flying once were waiting on the ship if they were lucky enough get past them. Tails and the more determined heroes were prepared to accept their challenge for which they have their secret weapons prepared for this type of violent air fight.

"We aren't going to falter to appeal to their plans. These guys will be the ones that will be conquered in this fight. Ready Tails?" Gear said.

Tails would watch as G opened the windows for Gunstar Red, Zephyr, and Welkin to get their weapons ready for this fight. Shadow pull out Rowen Cardinal's famed pistols while Rouge checks the weapons they have installed in their heavily armored vehicle for the day. Alis would ready the appropriate weapons for her high tech tank she's flying there with the Chaotix finally getting their weapons ready for their daily test shooting. Both Blaze and Electra would have their best weapons ready while their respective drivers get their space weapons ready for battle, Ulala with her pistol and Pudding with her jazzy guitar. Billy would make sure that Cipher is ready for his fiery tackling as Axel finally pulls out the rocket launcher he's been saving for this day. The Bonanza Bros would eventually have their stun guns ready after Kasumi pulls out her perfect blade for some ship slicing. Amy finally takes out her famed mallet for this battle with the neighboring Blue Rogue activating the cannons on his ship. Tails would finally turn from Gear after nodding and clutched the controls rods of his plane to get ready for this fight.

"Yes Gear, I'm ready for break through their army like a hot blade going through butter. Now let's show them what we're really made of guys!" Tails shouts.

Everyone would charge dead ahead at high speeds with there weapons and other trump cards ready for this strategic air fight. The G.U.N. Carriers would dispense their heavily armed helicopters and G.U.N. Walkers for battle to assist everyone. Ratchet would finally get his hands on his favorite controls to start blasting some ships for old times as Clank stood behind his friend to give orders.

"Very well Ratchet, let's show that tin headed madman that we are still here to stop his plans on planetary enslavement," he shouts with his Lombax partner finally blasting off.

A frenzied dogfight between the forces of Eggman's fleet and the heroes would eventually ensue as they flight machines engaged in combat and flying enemies attacked forces with their unique abilities despite their lack of defensive measures. AiAi bowls into a mass of Paragoombas easily with the help of his jet ringed powered Monkey Bowl with ease thanks to his experience with these enemies. An Egg Jet would be on the Bonanza Bros.'s tail as it attempts shooting them down with its bullets. Kasumi quickly deflects each one with her blade thanks to her flex as the two thrives tries to outrun them in the madness.

"Mobo! Robo! Can one of you try stunning that ship with your guns?" she asked.

Both of them aimed their guns at the ship while their free hands maneuver the wheel of their flying car.

"No problem, ninja broad. This punk will leave us alone after you finish it off," they both said.

Then their red bullets would be launched at the cockpit to short-circuit its electrical system and it gave Kasumi the opportunity to finish it off. The kunoichi launched herself at it with her blade and swung at full force, cleaving it in two thanks to the force of the attack. The bros would quickly drive around to save her just in time with another situation happening to the east. Propeller packed Mettuars would be chasing after G's minivan as they fired yellow beams at them. Good thing his skills were experienced enough to dodge each of these shots while the three gunners in the back aim for them. Zephyr fires his Fire Bullets at them to attempt killing them and it would be unsuccessful due to him trying to shoot their invulnerable caps instead of their face.

"Damn, so it's impossible to knock the caps off them? There's got to be a way to get them off of our back," the boy says while refilling his ammunition.

Then Gunstar Red would be the one to quickly kill them by blasting their faces with consecutive lighting blasts to finish this.

"Zephyr, we would have to shoot their faces to get rid of them. It's sort of an obvious weak point you would figure out for helmet wearing machines like them," she said.

He would be left a bit speechless while she continues helping Welkin take out the nearby Tellies.

"I sort of knew that. I wanted to see if talking them out that way would have been more fun," he insists.

The Chaotix would be blasting away through the waves of Wily forces with their ships weaponry with little issue like everyone else. This is mostly due to the ship coming with an automated lock-on system that allows them to instantly attack the weaknesses of any target thanks to the suggestions Espio and Charmy had when building it with the others. Some of these weaknesses can include the wings of any Para-Koop Troop member, the faces of the Mettaurs, the Egg Jet's cockpits, the Boom Boom's face, or the Nefarious Fighter's wings. Speaking of the Nefarious fighters, most of them would aim for the G.U.N. fleet and Aphelion ship since they seemed like the more reasonable targets in their eyes. The copters would have issues chasing them with their bullets, which is where the G.U.N. Walkers came into play since they were strong enough to deal with any threat to the city. Specifically, they would blast the wings with enough heavy missile fire before finishing them off with some shots to their vulnerable spots with superior machine-gun fire than the choppers. Though the main thing they would have to be careful of is avoiding getting hit in the cockpit where the pilot can easily be killed compared to any other part of their heavily armored body being damaged. Even if they would struggle with the Nefarious Fighters, Ratchet can easily take them out with enough shots from his trusty space ship thanks to having technology equally as superior.

"Ratchet, take out the one that's harassing that chopper!" Clank ordered.

Ratchet aimed for that specific ship and blasts it down with a few good shoots from the Aphelion's cannons.

The G.U.N. pilot in that copter would be relieved that he was saved just in time and said, "Thanks for covering me, Ratchet."

"No problem there, pal. These guys are a piece of cake for a skilled fighting pilot like me," Ratchet replied after winking.

Another few copters would be in trouble with one of them being successfully damaged from the Nefarious fighter's cannon.

"Man down! Man down! Try getting out of it before your fighter goes down," one of the pilots screamed.

The soldier had his parachute ready and breaks down the door of his chopper to jump on until another shot was fired at it to cause fire to the back.

"Hurry up! We can't cover you any longer since enough of the Walkers are taking on these things. Just jump out and I'll toss a rope to save you soldier!" that same pilot yelled.

The pilot would finally jump from the window as his fully damaged copter sink into the cloudy abyss below before it explodes after another shot from the incoming attacker. The pilot activates his chute to slow his fall down and grabbed the top that is tossed to him form his fellow G.U.N. operative. The incoming intergalactic ship would fly its way toward the distracted fighters to finish the job, leading the man to climb faster while all of this is happening. Then one of their superiors, especially Shadow, would appear directly in front of the ship and knocks it away with a powerful Chaos Punch. Then he would quickly disarm its cannons by destroying them with Chaos Spears and warped onto the cockpit to great his terrified victim. Normally Nefarious's men would be fearless killing machines that would oppose any organic life for his sake, while this pilot is crawling with fear after his ship would be dealt with this amount of damage from the Ultimate Lifeform.

"Never mess with any of my men. This is what happen to mechanical trash that try to lay their hand on the G.U.N.," he replied coldly.

Soon as he got into a familiar stance while charging red Chaos Energy, the robot pilot would do nothing but flinch since he knows that it's lights out for him. This would result in the entire ship being vaporized by the red explosion in the distance as Rouge rides the G.U.N. tank for her partner.

"Good, he gets to have all the fun while I'm stuck taking care of this tank. I guess a girl can't have fun these days, even when there's no gems involved," she said sarcastically.

Gamma and Omega would be blasting away at the air fighters before them with their weapons easily, having a competition over who can cause the most destruction. The older brother is more tactical with his reliance on well locked on ships with his missile launcher and focusing more on defense. While the younger brother was more reckless with his weaponry with his reliance on frenzied shots with his machine-gun fingertips and offense. These trained killing machines were creations of Eggman that turned against them on their own and didn't mind the destruction of their robotic siblings and their new friends in these hectic skies. Rouge fired down an incoming swarm of Buzz Bombers with the tank's guns early with machine-gun fire at the last moment.

"I would have to be careful the next time when that happens. Hah, I knew it would be a clever joke as sweet as honey," she said before laughing.

AGES blasts every foe away with his combination of missiles and gun fire while flying through with a series of athletic aviating skills. His status as an experienced flier makes it had for the more dangerous enemies to fire their weapons at it and the Paratroopas had a hard time hating his plane with their fastest Shell Shots.

"Target sighted! Fire!" he yelled before shooting them down with his co-planes' weapons.

These flying turtles would be sent spiraling to the clouds after getting their shelled bodies singed and wings fried to a crisp. Ryo and Honey were chased by a swarm of mini Pipis after their eggs were hatched by the "mothers" that tried attacking them. Ryo would look through his bike's weapon selection to find the right weapon he needed for tail chasers like them.

"Time to blow these guys out of the sky with their least favorite fish and my favorite meal!" he said before pressing the button.

Honey looked behind them to see something blue fly out of the hatch behind the flying motorcycle to see if their plan worked. That object would be a special type of blowfish harnessed for these type of related races and it inflates itself to block the way of these dastardly robotic squawkers. It instantly explodes after the entire swarm crashed into them, causing a chain reaction that would destroy the larger Pipis that chased them as well.

"Good job Ryo, our plan in stopping those birds worked," she said before hugging him from behind.

The young man really felt good about this and focused on the "road' ahead of him to avoid crashing. Cipher instantly blows a Boom Boom out of the sky thanks to orders from his master Billy as the latter tries to navigate the series of Bullet Bills flying at them. Axel would be more concerned about aiming his Rocket Launcher at the very airship that was shooting them with a series of Goombas piloting it.

"Billy, try to maneuver closer to the ship while dodging those big bullets. I'll try taking it down with my weapon so it won't give us any trouble,".

Soon as Cipher flew back to his master, Billy turned to his ally and nods.

"Let's go!" he says.

They would fly closer to the ship that still fired more living ammunition at them while Mega Man flies by to shoot down more of his robotic enemies.

"Rush, try to be more strategic about our flight so I can easily blast the Mets in their weakness spot," the Blue Bomber ordered.

Axel was now in the right spot thanks to Billy's flight and looks for the spot where the drivers could be when using this shot.

"There it is. I'll be sure to make this ship go down with this well aimed shell," the blonde cop replied.

Then the shell would be instantly fired from the launcher into this front of the airship to heavily damage it. With the ship's only controls destroyed and the more important pilots defeated, the flying vehicle slowly sinks into the depths with that destroyed area smoking from the blast.

"Yes! We did it Axel. Good job and same goes for you Cipher," Billy replied.

"Bow wow!" the flying Egg Animal barked in joy.

Meanwhile, Ulala and Blaze were taking down enough of Eggman's more persistent Badniks that chased after them.

"Chu! Chu! Chu! There's enough of these robots trying to keep up with our beat. How are you doing Pudding?" the pink haired reporter asked.

Pudding would be having enough trouble herself since the Buzz Bombers kept avoiding the electrical strums of her guitar with Electra easily taking them out with her improved electric whip. She was annoyed that she can only kill the slower fliers while her partner can handle them with no issue.

"Can't I be the one to take these annoying bees myself? They must really not know what a killer performance is," she complained.

An Egg Giant Flyer would be heading their way with enough of a fleet to give them trouble.

"Why don't you help me take out that big guy and his cronies if you really want to help," the ex-Syndicate dominatrix replied.

The reporter would then aim her electric guitar at the incoming fleet with her feet still outside of the driver's seat and her entire body facing her next target.

This is it Pudding. This is the one moment when you finally prove to the galaxy that she is the reporter that deserves more credit than Ulala's space channel sideshow.

"Time to rock this place with Channel 42's best entertainment!" she beamed.

Then she vigorously plays her famed guitar to get a groovy beat calmly as the incoming winged Egg Pawn prepares their guns for they next attack. The music she plays was just as aggressive as her guitar match with Ulala in Fountain Square. Electra lashed at a Mettaur's face before taking pause at the music she plays. The groove had feelings of more than just competitive spirit, but one of a someone who's ready to blow someone away with a great show. Purple sparks would now be gathering in the guitar's base as she continuous to pull the strings with a good rhythm. Then few of the Egg Fliers would eventually fire their shots at the guitar playing reporter before Ulala calls for her safety.

"Look out!" she yells.

Then the green haired reporter would perform one massive strum to blow all six of her airborne enemies and their bullets away in a wave.

The damaged robots would eventually explode complete with their system overridden by the guitar's power and Pudding watched there result of her victorious attack. Electra was surprised by what she did just like the neighboring Blaze and Ulala who were surprised that they intercepted their enemies' attack.

"Great performance you did there Pudding. I would say that was quite the great rhythm you had there with that guitar of yours. It's shame that your channel doesn't have as many viewers with a performance like that," she said.

"Pudding, that was pretty amazing. I expected my rival to usually compete with my performance, but not in a way where it's this good. You really are a strong reporter," Ulala said in gratitude.

Pudding could only react to this praise in silence as she absorbs them within her thoughts and the blank expression on her face after the cocky one she had earlier didn't help.

Did I just hear what I did I did? Someone actually loved my talent and she's normally not a part of my audience. On top of that, Ulala is also glad to have someone like me as her rival. If this day gets even better, then I can imagine myself becoming one with the galaxy as its new idol.

Then Pudding would start laughing with tears running down her face before falling back into her seat from astonishment. Electra was able to catch her in time with one hand while still holding her whip outside the other side of Pudding's cruiser.

"Pudding? Pudding? Wake up and realize that this isn't the time for sleeping!" Electra yells while holding her back.

"Ohohoho, what a day to be alive. To have someone who's willing to be my newest fan and Ulala finally admitting that I'm the best thing that ever happened to here. I wish this can last forever," she says while trying to recover from her shock.

Ulala and Blaze would be watching the situation from their space cruiser and sweatdropped at the sheer shock of the scene. Beat would be destroying multiple robots with the loud speakers of his flying ATV vehicle, making sure tag their faces before he does so.

"Mess with the GG's and you get tagged! This is what happens when you mess with Professor K and our jamming family! This is what it means to be the ruler of the streets of Tokyo-To!" Beat beams with the bass booming from his vehicle.

Gum however would be dealing with her enemies in the best way she can by leaving a trail of broken hearts from behind her. She would do so by blowing a massive kiss in the form of a heart and allows it to stay behind her vehicle to break and destroy multiple targets. The two rudies were covering each other the whole time since they had one thing on their mind: that is to break through there forces together and save their remaining GG pals. Jacky would be driving their Ferrari away from some incoming Bullet Bills that were chasing them the entire time with Akira fending him off with his Hakkyouku-Ken martial arts. Each of his blows were strong enough to knock them away from the vehicle until they spontaneously combust due to the severe damage of their bullet-like body. Gilius would fly past them with some incoming Boom Booms on their tail with Shiva standing on the backseat to wait for their next move.

"Why don't you try to fend these guys off while I find a perfect spot to use this high level Lightning Spell to kill most of them in this area," the green wearing dwarf suggests.

Shiva nods while focusing on the flying Koopa commanders to anticipate the time they will attack. One of them would pull their limbs into their massive orange shell lunge at the former Syndicate member. He would quickly knock it away with a powerful kick as the other one gasps at his defeat. Then the remaining Boom Boom would get angry with steam billowing from his bald orange head. He would eventually turn invisible to surprise his opponent and waits for the right time to strike. But this wouldn't fool the experienced fighter at all since he still has his eye on him and listens closely to hear the sounds of him flapping. It was them that he would hear the sound of something come at him form the right and he retaliates with a powerful kick to his shell. But this kick was stronger than the last and shattered the entirety of the now visible Boom Boom and left him in his boxer shorts like any Koopa that loose their shell. The whites of the big Koopa would show as he is now out could from the last attack and falls into the clouds below everyone.

"You can thank me later, dwarf. Both of them are no longer a problem to us," he replied before sitting back down.

Gilius would turn his eagle-shaped vehicle around with his Golden Axe ready for his famous spell with an entire group of Wily and Eggman's forces heading their way.

He laughed and says, "Now here comes the best part of the game: Sudden Death!"

He would raise his axe into the air with mystical powers of the magic potions gathering in his favorite blade. A massive dark cloud would slowly form above him and stretches into a considerable larger size to blanket have of the entire warzone. Zobio would watch the sky after shooting down a Met with his apple launcher with Ralph doing the same from his wrecking. Opa Opa, Harrier, and the Funkotron Trio looked into the skies after doing each laser fire from the incoming warship. Even the G.U.N. fleet would notice the thunderstorm that Gilius is creating with the power of his axe.

"Oh mighty thunder, I summon thee to strike down every evil being in the skies!" he shouts.

Shiva had a bad feeling that this could result in something dangerous for his partners. Then various bolts of lighting would strike the robotic minions one by one to fully destroy them thanks to his power. This would also come in handy for the heroes who were struggling to fight off some minions since these bolts traveled from a good about to feet to damage these machine. Amigo would destroy the shocked Prop-Top with a massive maraca from his hand while Kirby destroys multiple targets with his Jet Buster.

Dedede already took out more than enough foes for his pink rival with the help of his Gordo henchmen. Watching the amount of minions die thanks to the dwarf's methods were enough to anger Nack and Zavok from the distance during all of this. The weasel in particular is already steaming to the point where he wants to aim his new sniper blaster to kick him out of the skies. He wasn't the only one who is disappointed by this in which most of the villains in the room were expressing their disdain over how the times were turned. Wily would be disappointed that even his deadlier flying minions would go down this easily despite them having the best weapons possible, grinding his teeth in imminent anger.

"Even my airships are going down to simple thunder? I thought I programed them airships to be more durable than that!" Bowser complained.

"It appears that we've been underestimating these heroes easily. Like they can easily adapt to the most unknown situations without knowing how to really take them on. But no matter, there's still some stronger and more advanced fighters we have out there in the form of Nack and Zavok. Plus I'm having Egg Robo pilot one of my stronger machines with some upgrades that make it as strong as the Egg Dragoon Mk 2. Have no fear guys, we still have some hope in breaking their spirits," Eggman replied.

Nefarious however is still steaming how Ratchet and the G.U.N. were easily taking out his best ships at his command and slams his robotic fist on the ground.

"At times like this, I REALLY want to send Lawrence out there to deal with them in one of my best machines. But I really don't want to waste it on something as simple as this and save it for the war. I do hope you're right Eggman, things better be good from now on," he said while calming down.

"You may be right, you may be wrong. But let's have the stronger ones take them on with their own technology. As my old teacher would say, it's survival of the finest," Dr. Z said while relaxed.

Tillis and Shou would be blasting the Flamers easily with their high pressure water pistols like the determined fire fighters they were. These weapons were made to put out the toughest flames in any situation and there was no doubt that the pressure from these shots would be trouble for pyromaniac machines like them. NiGHTS blasts though rows of robots easily with his Rocket Form and quickly transforms back into his recognizable form with said persona mask on. Then he would notice Para Troopas dive bombing from above to only Paraloop to suck their poor shells inside. He would notice Orta and Ali taking on groups of Egg Jets easily with the help of their powerful dragon. The prince on the other hand had his best spirits Dytto and Efreet summoned to destroy the incoming forces easily. The powerful flame spirit destroys airships with ease thanks to the powerful fireballs launched from his extremely heated body. The water sprite however had the task of sucking Paragoombas, Mettaurs, and Pipis into the powerful water force she generates. Jack Frost easily froze a group of robots and ships thanks to his Mabufula spell and watch as they fellow below.

"Hee ho, say hello to YHVH for me once he sees you in Heaven… Not!" he arrogantly remarks before laughing.

"Fire in the hole!" Welkin shouts before tossing one of his grenades at the incoming Egg Jet.

Due to his war experience, he had the right idea to destroy the cockpit for the entire ship to go down and G was relieved for his methods.

"Thanks Gunther. Now let our good friend Zephyr have some fun. Ain't that right?" he replied.

He was now feeling much better thanks to having fun giving orders to the three guns that severed as his weapons with his real team gone. The blonde boy would notice the incoming Telly that ominously hovers towards a fair distance above them. He aimed both of his submachine guns towards his target with one containing fire bullets and the other containing ice ones.

That's right. Open that delicious hatch of yours so that I can blow you from the inside out.

He would wait for the right moment when the blue robot's orifice opens to prepare for a surprise bombing attack. Soon as he saw one of the bombs getting ready to dispense, he would rapidly shoot his fire rounds first and his ice rounds at it. This would blow up the grenades it was about to launch and freeze the slot at the bottom of the large machine to keep it from dropping any more. This would cause a chain reaction of explosions inside of it and any grenade it wants to drop is held inside thanks to the frozen bottom.

"Nice, now to watch the fireworks happen from above," he said with a grin.

The Telly violently spins its head around as it overheats from the inside and parts of it's central circuits were slowly melting thanks to the explosions.

"Good job, Zephyr. How things are going for you Red?" G said.

The blonde gunner was having issues of her own since the robot clouds she shot were missiles in disguise that required more shots to destroy. She would rapidly switch between lighting to dissipate the cloudy fleece and fire to ignite the explosive robots.

"Next time, warn me when I'm dealing with a double layer enemy like this. But it's still nowhere near as crazy as my usual targets," she said while firing away.

G would focus more on how everyone else is doing in the skies since it appears that they were getting the upper hand. Most of every flying enemy would be defeated or destroyed thanks to everyone's methods while the shots fired from the warship's canons were easily dodged with no problem.

Vyse already destroyed enough forces with the cannon of his ship and noticed that Nack was charging another shot made especially for the unsuspecting Gilius and Shiva in the distance. The weasel has his smug grin ready to suit the mood of him assassination his first target in years. Zavok laughs beside him since watching someone die would be enough to please him out of the disappointing outcome of them losing this fast.

Now don't worry, you'll be put into a sleep that's just as good as Snow White. Now high ho back into the forest below where you belong, punk.

"Hey! He's planning on taking you down Thunderhead. Just try flying away before it's too late," he screamed.

Tails would wonder what he was talking about and noticed his friend's kidnapper preparing to snipe him again with the same blast from easily. Gear would see this as well and new it was time for them to face off.

"Tails, are you ready to punish this purple pest for the things he did?" he asked.

Tails maneuver his plane towards the dwarf while nearby fliers would catch on to this.

"Tails! You do realize that you can be hit as well if you get in the way!" Amy screams.

Knuckles really wanted to help, but he was busy dealing with a pack of Boom Booms and Mettaurs that were in his way.

"Just don't do anything reckless Tails! Sonic would not want any of us to die on a mission like this!" the echidna ordered.

You have no idea how long I've been wanting to face you since the time your Deadly Six machine interrupted our fight. I'll make sure that I won't fail again like the last time.

Ratchet would watch the situation from above and see that a certain purple mammal was up to another one of his powerful shots again.

"Ratchet, do you have any idea of how to stop this?" Clank asked.

The Lombax was thinking hard about what would be the best weapon to help him while realizing that they would only be usefully if they were to fly outside of the Aphelion.

"I don't know, I doubt that I can leave this ship on autopilot. But I will keep an eye on them in case anything serious happens," he replied.

Tails flew past a variety of familiar teammates to approach his eagle riding friend before it's too late. Joe managed to slice apart another Egg Flier before noticing the dire situation at hand. With his excellent eyes, he finally spots the problem and maneuver his hoverbike in another direction.

"Selvaria, is there anything we can do to stop that blast? Even a blowfish?" he spoke into his device.

Even the commander would be silent about this since she has no idea if anything would stop such superior technology.

"I'm afraid that I'm not sure. Even a blowfish would not be the sustainable way to stop it and shooting an equally powerful blast at it would risk hurting them as well. The best we can do is hope that he's fast enough to avoid the shot like the last time," she replied.

Ryo had no time to be feeling this down about finding a way to save their friend while Honey is in tears about their tight situation.

"You mean, you don't know what we can do to prevent it? There's no way we can just sit here and do nothing about it. He's our ally and having him die is something we can't let happen on our watch!" he shouts.

Opa Opa would finally notice the weasel pulling his trigger and flew in Gilius's direction to leave Harrier and Toejam the task of firing at the cannons on the ship.

"Opa Opa will provide the best weapon he can to save you. You won't be shot down on my watch, Gilius!" the Menonian ship yells.

Shiva would notice the beam heading in their way after the shot was fired and warned his partner about the incoming blast.

"Shiva! Don't you dare die on me! Just get the hell out of there and use that blowfish to save yourselves. Even if it won't be enough to save you!" Electra screamed.

Pudding can feel the feeling of sorrow from her partner's scream and tears ran down her cheeks after hearing the news that his life was in danger. The two fought together for a while and didn't want to lose him this soon in the skies where were can fall to his death.

"Gilius, try using you All Star if that blowfish fails. Then maybe then, we can make it out alive together. There's no way that I'm losing an ally this valuable this fast," Lord Max yells.

Alis can feel how saddening the situation is while the rest of her cargo would face the harsh reality that it will be impossible to save him in time. Max, a young boy who is always fearless, was in tears next to his beloved reptilian pals who were just as sad as him. Phantom R holds his hat down like he's paying respect to someone dear to him and former yakuza member Kiryu could do nothing but shake his head in shame. The beam is heading towards them in a second with the dwarf now shooting every blowfish he's got to save himself while knowing that the beam's power would vaporize them instantly. Shiva could do nothing but watch as they desperately try to fly away with some regret over some of the things he had done in his life.

Forgive me Electra, but I'm afraid that I can keep my enemies' blood on my hands forever. It's really time for me to accept my death and be with every other criminal that doesn't deserve redemption.

Tails and Opa Opa were both flying closer to save them before they could be hit with the best speed they could. Then Gilius would throw as many magic potions as he can at the blast for his attempts to result in failure. As a last resort, he would finally charge some energy into his Golden Axe to pierce it with lightning despite having so little time to save himself. All Shiva did was close his eyes and braced himself for what could be his final moments of living. All Tails could do is active what could be shields he had never tested before while Gear could do nothing but hope that this could work. With tears in his eyes and determination at his side, the dwarf would fire his final blast at the beam with Opa Opa and Tails finally coming in contact to generate their best shields just in time. But all would only result is a massive blast that eclipsed the area around them as a sign that their efforts would o little to lessen the impact of this shot. Everyone covered their eyes at the resulting moment while others unfortunately witnessed the blast with some hope they could have survived. Nack is overjoyed that he didn't miss at all with his red Zeti ally welcoming the death of his master's victims.

"There's no way he could have survived this. The blast is powerful enough to destroy any shield and it's impervious to any form of natural electricity. All we can do is watch as our heartbroken heroes just give up and go home like they should," the smug weasel replied.

Amy could feel so many hard feelings being held up in her chest at this moment, trying to grasp at the fact that Tails could do nothing to help and got destroyed like them. She can only think about how Sonic would feel in a situation like this with the tears obscuring her vision.

"He couldn't make it. I just had the feeling that it would end this way if he tried to save them without the proper shields," she said as her cheeks were warmed by these tears.

Knuckles however would have feelings of anger and sadness over not being able to do anything to represent this and slammed his fists on the hood of his ATV.

"I've warned him not to get into any trouble, but he was so obsessed with wanting to get back at Nack that it had to end like this. I'm sorry Sonic, we tried the best we could to help," he yelled.

AiAi would be crying inside of his Monkey Ball beside his samba pal who is doing the same over the loss of their dear friend. Ali was hit pretty hard from what happened and was in no mood to give any others to the two spirits that were trying to comfort him. Orta would be just as sad as the dragon she pilots for which it lets out a loud sorrowful roar to express his master's sadness. Alis could do nothing but hold her head down in shame over this since she could do nothing to protect one single ally in this group.

"Damn it, we were too foolish to realize that they would be steps ahead of us and take advantage of our weaknesses in order to break us!" he screamed.

Toejam would now be hugging his Earl as he cries about the situation while Latisha could only feel guilty about not contributing much to the operation. Honey would hug Ryo from behind in tears while the later could only feel angry about losing this many allies in this fight. Rouge could only feel shocked that such thing happened while Shadow express slight disappointed about his rival's friend throwing his own life away like that instead of leaving them be.

"So this what it feels like to use your life for the sake of others. I was hoping that we wouldn't lose someone much more valuable than a G.U.N. soldier in these skies. Now the blue hedgehog would have no choice but to allow himself to die in order to be with him," he said in a more remorseful voice.

Pudding would comfort Electra as she sobbed onto her shoulder over losing her closest partner with Ulala and Blaze feeling down about the pain she's going through for the day. But it truly hit Alex Kidd and Billy the hardest since they were good friends of Gilius, trying their best to not let their emotions get to them.

"He wasn't that old and still a powerful warrior. There's no way that he can just die on us this fast!" the brown haired boy cried.

Cipher tries his best to comfort Billy in the middle of this only for him to be sadness by how devastated his chicken loving master is. G could do nothing but shake his head in disappointment in the front seat in his car as most of his passengers were devastated by this event. Vector cried loudly from the Chaotix Jet with the rest of his equally sad members with the more serious ones like Espio and Mighty grieving the loss. Selvaria could only feel nothing but a severe disappointment in not being able to assist them in the best way and felt the most guilty about the cries of Amy. Gunstar Red could cry harder after taking a look at the smoke before him and seeing the wreckage fly into the cloudy abyss. Zephyr had that same feeling as he sat in his seat with Centurion letting out a mournful howl and Welkin placing his gun down in silence. The Bonanza Bros would be crying together in the front seat as Kasumi could do nothing but watch the smoke with some hope that they are alive despite seeing enough proof that they didn't survive. NiGHTS truly felt sorry for Sonic's loss as he watched the wreckage fall and Jack Frost taking out a flower in respect to his high flying pal's honorable death. Ralph shook his head from his Wreck It Mobile with his undead ally doing the same next to the already sad Puyo Trio. Arle thought that if they weren't relying on the magic to fly with these Puyos, then they could have been able to prevent this. But even if Satan were given the opportunity to summon more of them, it would have bene too late. She could do nothing but let the warm drops tickle down her face as Schezo tries to comfort her. Seeing this could only give the horned dark lord a thought about how his pink haired love is feeling after losing one of her closest friends.

"Game, set, and match! We win this round and I can't see Sonic not wanting to live with himself after losing his only foxy friend. Now all we do is watch those loveley tears of the fallen heroes and take them out the same way," Eggman said with a sinister grin.

Orbot and Cubot could only shake their heads while holding hands at how far their master would go just to achieve his goals. Gamma would finally spot something of significance after trying to search the smoke with his scanners next to Omega. He could get readings one something big along with multiple targets that could represent that it could have saved them in time.

"My sensors indicate that there is something among that blast frame that saved them. Keep looking and watch if it really is a sign of their survival!" he announced.

Rouge and Shadow heard their words and focus on the rising smoke before them since their sensors never lie.

"Are you sure about this Gamma? Usually your vision wouldn't be good enough to look through that smoke," Shadow asked.

"Trust me Shadow, my brother should have technology similar to mines despite not being as advanced. Have some faith in his good scanners," Omega responds.

Shadow would listen to his words and had the feeling that he can trust him as a close friend. Rouge would use her excellent eyes to finally look through the fog, which is a trait that a nocturnal individual like her can have. She couldn't believe her eyes after getting a good view of what lies beyond those dark dust clouds and widened her mouth upon this revelation.

Are they really alive? How is that even possible? Unless someone from back on the ships must have flow here in time to save them. But who could it be and what was that wreckage that fell from the blast?

Shadow could tell from her face that she did see something and looked over there just to wait for it to go.

"Everyone, look before you and what for the clouds to clear. Something big jumped in and took the blast before any of them were hit! Tails and the others are still alive!" she ordered.

Knuckles could feel himself getting some hope in his survival after his words, but still felt that she could be just getting his hope too high. Amy quickly wiped her tears away just like Alex Kidd and Billy once they heard her words. Electra finally had some hope to hold on to after hearing the bat's words and obediently looked at the dark dust clouds with Pudding.

"How are you sure that he even survived, Rouge. This better not be some trick to raise our already low hopes. I can trust you if you prove that what you say is real!" the echidna barked.

Shadow would have enough of the echidna's rudeness and replied in the most professional way possible in a situation like this.

"Just trust her, she was able to see some objects in there like our robotic allies. There's the same about of people involved that are living and something big took the hit before them. The real mystery is what was fast enough to actually make it here in time!" he replied.

The hot headed echidna would calm down slightly after getting his answer and could do nothing but to trust them for now. Kirby had the right idea to draw himself closer to the clouds on his large Warpstar with Dedede with a determined look.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking? You better be on to the same page since we've got no time to lose Kirby," the king replied.

The hero of Popstar nods and continues to fly closer to the smoking mass before them.

"What is that puff planning on doing? If there's something in there like Rouge said, shouldn't they just wait until the smoke clears?" Zobio said.

"He's probably going to suck the air up with Dedede just to make us wait less. Trust me, I've seen his power before and you have to remember that this is the same guy that can swallow plates worth of food back on the ship." Satan replied.

"You better be right about this Satan. I actually hope that they are still intact and not blown down like we originally thought," Arle said in a worried manner.

The two partners from Popstar finally approached the imposing mass of leftover impact smoke and begin inhaling it at full force together with their might. Everyone in the distance would watch in hope that their allies' deaths were confirmed as false as they await the entirety of the smoke to be cleared from there powerful suction. The people within Alis's tank hoped really hard that they were alright just like the passengers of G's minivan watched the clouds grow smaller from their suction. Nack and Zavok noticed the clouds getting smaller inexplicably with caution, waiting for whatever the source to reveal themselves.

This isn't looking good at all. I will be steaming if it's a sign that they were faking their defeat the whole time.

The clouds were now halfway gone to reveal a massive pair of black wings of unknown origin that surprises both sides of the skies. Eggman saw out his victory sink once he saw the wings and noted how they were make of a special black hair and seeming with magic energy.

"Eggman, what seems to be the problem? We won and they should..."

Bowser would notice the wings his partner saw and grew surprised. Wily and the others were equally as angry once they saw what they were and the appearance of a bird's massive head would seal the deal on what happened.

"Could it be that witch that Balder talked about that defeated Selvaria and helped kill the Vortex Queen?!" Nefarious yelled.

Nack grew just as angry as Zavok soon astray witnessed most of the demonic creature's body and what company it bought. The heroes would finally get a better view of it from behind to see that Gilius's eagle vehicle, Opa Opa, and Tails's Tornado were complete intact from the attack thanks to the bird-like demon's body.

"Tails! You are in one piece!" Amy cried. Knuckles would be just as excited that his pal is alright and jumped in joy before landing back onto his vehicle.

"Wahooooo! I knew that you wouldn't give up on us easily Tails. And Gilius is alright just like Shiva!" he exclaims.

Ryo and Honey smiled in joy from the miraculous sight they see as the many other heroes cheered for their survival. Billy recognized a certain figure above the massive bird's head and knew it had to be the only and only Umbran Witch.

"Bayonetta! Boy, am I glad to see you out here and you made the right move to protect them in time!" the chicken warrior yells.

Alex would be just as happy that their favorite witch was the one who saved them when all hope was lost.

"Space Channel! You go Bayo, show them that you aren't afraid of messing with their inferior technology!" Ulala yelled.

Electra would be in complete shock over how Shiva survived the attack and hugs Pudding from behind to express her happiness.

"Whoah there! I can see that you're glad he lived, but can you try not to ruin my expensive reporter outfit!" she begged.

The stylist witch would look behind her self to see how glad her friends were over saving them and saw that Kirby and Dedede were full after inhaling enough smoke.

"Thank you for making my grand entrance perfect, boys. Now why don't you try exhaling that harmful stuff elsewhere since I have to make this cheat quick," she said with a sly smile.

The two obediently flew away from their allies and Gilius laughs victoriously at his survival after seeing the full figure of his savior.

"Great job there lass, we couldn't been gone if your crow didn't appear just in time. The fact that their force fields broke away form the impact was enough of a sign that we wouldn't make it with their help," he replied.

Tails would be just as glad that he lived knowing that his untested shields were too weak for these shots and Gear gladly sits down on the plane's tail in happiness of his survival.

"Opa Opa is glad that your bird fiend was able to take the shot for us. I'm assuming that it is powerful enough to withstand these type of blasts. But how did you get here fast enough?" the ship beamed.

Bayonetta sits down on the demonic bird's head with her leg's crossed before taking out another of her lollipops to enjoy.

"Let's just say I've overheard Selvaria's little conversation from the inside and made the right move to run outside the ship and jump. Headdy was worried for what I did until he noticed that I needed some room to summon Malphas, who appeared just in time for me to ride. Then I would jump into a portal with my powers that would lead me to the very location they would be to appear just in time. You can say that you all were lucky to have such a powerful ally as myself and it would be a complete waste if we were to lose Sonic's best pal," she said before sucking the red treat.

Tails and the other heroes that were saved could only smile at her actions with Shiva cracking his knuckles in anticipation of beating the very weasel that almost killed him.

"Instead of beating around the bush. Don't we have two certain subjects to defeat before we continue this mission?" he asked with a serious face.

"Good old Shiva. You never change a bit, do you?" Axel said from his communication device.

Just the sight of Nack having a breakdown over his failure was enough to amuse and prepare Tails for their fated battle in the skies. The weasel jumps up and down in his armored cruiser and slammed his fist on the control panel in anger.

"Dag nabbit! You bloody fools have no idea how pissed I am at this turnabout. You are supposed to be defeated and not winning at all! If you think that humiliating me is going to force this battle to end, then think again!" he yells.

Zavok growls and maneuvers his cruiser ahead of his master with his fists ready for a fight. "It isn't over yet. We still have a chance at beating them out of the skies with out technology. This won't end in failure if we don't try taking matters into our own hands for now," he replied.

Nack has the right weapon combination set onto his hovering machine and have one of his special guns in hand while breathing heavily like madman. The Zeti could tell from his tone of voice that he's blinded by rage and ready to go far as blasting him into bits with the weaponry he has in his possession.

"Yes, let's crush all of them. Especially that black witch and the bratty fox before they get anywhere near this ship," the angry weasel replied.

Eggman and the villains watched as their best protectors peppered to fix this mess after venting some rage from this unexpected situation. Eggman however would be still angry with his robotic henchmen shivering in fear from it. He would glare at the two specifically, leading Cubot and Orbot to hug each other in fear while freaking out.

"Get Egg Robo out of there now! Make sure that these two have the right amount of back-up to protect themselves from them!" he yelled.

The two robots screamed and immediately jumped into there appropriate control slots to message their fellow ally.

"Things will really get serious now that we know what their capable of! Brace yourselves boys, we will have to see if they can hold their own and make us proud," the unhappy scientist announced.

Bayonetta leaps back onto the head of her demonic crow familiar with her eye on the incoming targets as the five heroes await the arrival of their enemies. Tails definitely has his eye on the angry weasel since he's too finish things where they were left off back at Mystic Ruins with his hands tight on the controls. Gear clenches his fists and tightened the muscles in his legs to build up his anger for defeating the cowards that almost killed three friend. Gilius would charge the electricity in his axe with his eyes focused on the devious Zavok, especially since his partner Shiva would like to face him personally for the Wood Oak City incident with Zomom.

"Looks like the leader of those Deadly Six punks that joined the Legion. So it must be our lucky day to stomp him while he's here, dwarf," he replied.

The green wearing hero of Yuria could only respond my laughing like a warrior and placing his left foot on the engine.

"That's right, he will definitely be the one to pay dearly for kidnapping our friend and putting me to sleep back there! This won't be just for Yuria, but also our dear friend," he shouts.

Tails would be the first start flying at Nack with his best guns ready to fire away and Gear ready to attack whenever they get close enough. The weasel activates his special shield instantly to block the bullets from his nemesis to fore him to turn out of the way. He would activate his entire arsenal of missile launchers by raising various cannons from the bottom of his ship.

"This is for you, especially for avoiding your honorable death like a real hero!" he yells before pressing the button.

Many missiles would be fired as they spread to variety of targets around the area, which included the nearby heroes. Opa Opa would lead several into the air by flying away and Tails would allow the ones follow him to chase them towards the ship. His plan would include trying to lose them from below while dodging the turrets below at high speeds.

"Hang on Gear. I just need you to bear with me since these could be the key to taking out some of their best guns on the ship," he replied.

Nack wouldn't be surprised that the demonic crow shrugs off his best missiles and look for the Napalm Bombs required to burn it out of the sky. Bayonetta would start firing her magical guns at the shield just to startle him and attempt putting it out.

"It's no use, your pointless bullets won't be able to break through it. Even if you have magic, it would only do so little damage since this one's upgraded from the last time," he gloats.

Bayonetta scoffs and gets unto a more athletic pose to aim her heel guns at the same target. He would drop his jaw at how far she's willing to go just to break his shields before all four guns would start shooting the barrier together. Zavok clashed with Gilius up close, who was close to cleaving his head with the Golden Axe as the two pushed against each other with their vehicles. The two warriors would be bushing against each other with there strength to prevent the attack from happening. Shiva would quietly jump into the air and prepare to attack him from above with his Open Hand Palm Strike. Zavok would use his red tail press the shield button just in time once he heard him.

"As expected, you rely on cheap tactics just to defeat me. But if that's how it is, then let me show you what I'm made of," he snarled.

He would generate flames in his hands to warm up the axe instantly to attempt burning the dwarf's powerful hands. The heat was definitely hurting him, but his heart of warrior kept him determined to push harder and defeat him.

"You think that fire's going to be enough to defeat me? I've fought dragons that can burn harder than you, demon. Allow me to show you what I would do to such beast when I'm at my most dangerous!" he remarks.

He yells while pushing against the Zeti's flaming hands and forces them towards his shoulder with his left feet on the gas pedal. Shiva continuous to stomp the shield from above until he can force it to open itself. Suddenly, the very sound of breaking can be heard from nearby with Nack screaming in fear. It turns out that Bayonetta managed to break through the shield easily with her demonic crow's talons instead of wasting enough time with him and she threatens him at gunpoint.

"One false move and I'll take your little toys away from you. This is what happens when you mess with a witch and your days of pop capping will be over soon," she said before licking her lips in a sadistic manner.

Nack would have both of his guns pointed at her to see which one of them would shoot first since he's not going down without a real fight. This distraction would allow for Gilius to finally push Zavok against the ground with a push and smash his controls easily with his blade. The shield's dispersal would allow for Shiva to jump against and finish things off where he was started. The red Zeti would try blocking himself before the powerful strike occurred to him. This would trigger Nack to launch himself into the air with a Tail Bounce and fire way at Bayonetta, who nimbly dodges his shots by break dancing. She would start shooting at him while spinning to force him to quickly deflect each bullet with his shots. The two were really having a true gun fight with everything, they got while the missiles still chased his other targets. Opa Opa would notice something large flying out of the back of the ship as a potential target he can lead these missiles into and dove at it. It was none other than the Death Egg Robo Mk 2 being piloted by Egg Robo that looks around for a potential target to it. It would observe the explosions that were occurring below the ship as a sign of Tails's plan working and it raised its spiked fists for a sneak attack. Tails would emerge from under the ship just in time to meet this powerful machine face-to-face. He responds with a quick air dodge from its left fist while Gear initiates a Spin Dash to attack its head severely.

This did nothing since the body was much more durable than the older model and it response by turning its upper half around for another spiky punch. Tails flew out of the way just in time with the robot being hit by on of Opa Opa's Ultra Bombs. Then he would rapidly shoot him to cause a larger cloud of dust so that his plan of leading the misses can world properly. Tails and Gear heard the explosions from below and looked to see if their friend was OK in the aftermath.

"I hope those missiles didn't get to him," the blue haired warrior said.

Then a spiked fist would fly at them from a distance and they narrowly dodged it at the right time. This was proof that Egg Robo wasn't going down without a fight and Opa Opa would dodge another fist shot in his direction below. The multicolored ship would summon the ten ton weight to attempt putting it down as the mechanical behemoth is pushed down by its weight. Its thrusters on the back would be shooting massive flames to signify the amount of foe it's using for pushing the weight off of it.

"That machine is really stubborn. We would have to find some way to take it down," Tails said.

Then a familiar pink vehicle flew beside them for a certain pink hedgehog to jump down there to solve the problem.

"Amy, what are you doing?" Gear shouts.

Then few more vehicles would fly down after her which would be Joe, Billy, Alex Kidd, the ChuChus, Bonanza Bros, and Vyse.

"Leave it to us, we'll do this together if we will get on that ship as a team!" the captain shouts.

Egg Robo continuously flew against the weight that was trying to crush him with the Death Egg Robo Mk 2 as Opa Opa waits for the machine to finally give up. He would notice a familiar hammer wielding friend falling above him with a mallet three times bigger than her.

"Ready or not, because here I come!" Amy yells.

The Piko Piko hammer finally comes in contact with the weight above the massive robot and slammed against its head with steel shattering results. The weight broke due to the attack and the robot's head was now crushed completely. Then Billy follows up with a powerful Egg Dunk in the same spot with Alex Kidd unleashing an onslaught of punches against the thrusters on its back. Axel deals a major slash to its chest with his Dragon Punch and Joe rapidly deals lighting fast slashes on its arms with Kasumi to prevent the robot from attacking. The ChuChu Master Mech would follow up with a Helm Splitter to cause internal damage to its insides from the head after Mobo and Robo stunned it, which shocked the robot double inside of the machine.

"Now and it's my turn to teach you what a true master of the skies is!" Vyse shouts before dashing at him from the front.

He would use his famous Cutlass Fury attack to deal two powerful slashes to its damaged body and before finishing things of with an overhead slash that slices the machine in half. Eggman and the other villains in the room would be shocked at how he would be defeated that fast as they saw the heroes immediately flying away from it. The insides of the machine that include the cockpit, circuits, and the bisected Egg Robo would be seen in both halves while they sparked rapidly from the damage. Then its explosion would trigger the scientist's rage at the situation as he slammed his fist on Cubot's head.

"Impossible, there's no way that he would lose that fast! I made him indestructible with the latest technology available! There's no way the others would be failing this miserably," he yelled.

"You might as well put your hopes down now, scrambled scientist. They aren't doing so hot either now that the heroes are double teaming them like cowards," Bowser snarled.

Engman would look at the other screens to see what he was implying and grimaces after seeing the situation. Zavok would already at his "full strength" trying to incinerate his smaller, yet various pests that were trying to defeat him. Ryo, G, Alis, Gilius, the Puyo Trio, Burning Rangers, Vectorman, BD Joe with Columns, Toejam, and Harrier were easily toying around with him by flying around the giant Zeti with their vehicles. Zobio would be right above his hand with a radioactive potion as a part of his plan to damage his brain.

"Just hold still so your lives can end. You are the equivalent of flies that just won't stop buzzing around someone superior!" Zavok says in his powerful voice.

Orta maneuvers her dragon around his upper area to command her dragon to fire away with its beam shots. Before he can react, a massive blast shoots him in his face from everyone's variety Space Harrier.

"Just because you're big doesn't mean that you are large and in charge of these skies!" he remarked.

The Zeti grows at him only to get shot in his back thanks Vectorman's Photon Blasts and Toejam's Funky Blasts.

"Who's the big TJ on campus now? Ain't nobody got time for a big ass target like you!" the three legged alien remarked.

"Word," Earl and Lastisha said together with their arms crossed in the same ship.

He would retaliate by swinging his large red tail at them, which they would dodge and it accidentally deals a massive hit to the ship he's supposed to protect.

"You foolish extraterrestrial brute! You are damaging our ship that we fly with!" Wily yelled with Eggman steaming about that accident.

The crazy taxi driver would be right next his ears with the special horns of his vehicle of choice next to Columns.

"Looks like somebody is in need of real wake up call!" he said with a grin.

He blared the loud horns into his ears to hurt them and anger the brutish Zeti.

"You are going to regret living after that!" Zavok replied in anger.

They flew just in time to evade him patting his shoulder. Then a giant Zobio would finally bash him in his head with a head splitter from his fall to knock him out. This would be enough to make him lose control of his very body until something in the distance is flying to finish the job. It would be none other than Ristar who finally knocks him in the gut with his light speed flight to push him back.

"Noooooooo! You better not land on this ship or else I'll really regret everything I said about you!" Eggman yelled in panic.

But it was too late, the giant Zeti lands onto the ship's deck and slightly shook the entire flying fortress with a heavy thud. Bowser lost his balance from this phenomena while every other villain fell on the floor from this tremor. There was no doubt that Metal Sonic felt it and awaits the violent beating he would do to anything that infiltrates this ship. The blue robot would drop the beaten Egg Pawn and slowly walked towards the exit to begin looking for his next target of frustration. Ristar would be hanging from the bottom of Ryo's hoverbike just in time so he wouldn't fall and everyone nearby celebrates their victorious defeat. Zobio would be climbing up the defeated Zavok's tail since he was still too large to be riding his own vehicle. NiGHTS would do the honors of driving it for him back to the enemy's ship after finding it in the skies.

"Whooo! We are really doing it. There's no way that we can fail this mission now!" Harrier exclaimed.

G would watch his passengers from behind celebrating their victory of the first plan with a smile.

"Mission accomplished everyone! Now we just have to see if they are done with that annoying weasel," Alis said under the noise of her celebrating passengers.

Mega Man, Ulala, Bayonetta, Pudding, Gum, Beat, Omega, Gamma, Shadow, Rouge, the Chaotix, Shogun, and Sir Pepper would be threatening the frightened weasel with their weapons.

His weapon system is already disabled thanks to Mega Man's Spark Shot which made the fight easier between him and the entire ground. Nack was now frightened and scared for his life as he shivers from being put into a corner like a scared dog.

"Now now, there's no need to get hasty. You broke through my shields, damaged by own means of self defense, and knocked my favorite guns out of my hand. Can't we just talk things over and not think of doing further damage to my queen?" he begged.

He would bump against something hard and quickly turned around to see what it was. Big, Amigo, Jack Frost, AiAi, Dedede, Kirby, Knuckles, and Headdy blocking the way. Big pats his bat against his gloved hand in threatening manner while the echidna cracks in knuckles in with a sly grin. Nack with his heart thumping like a ticking time bomb gasped like he's really in for it and tried to fly away to the side. His face would then be greeted by a boomstick pointing at him from G's old friends who appeared just in time.

"Where the hell do you think you're going, freaking weasel? You'd think that we are going to let you off that easily and weasel your crybaby ass out of this!" Washington said with his weapon focused on him.

Varla would be carrying him with her natural flight thanks to her Chaos Emerald blood and Zobiko rests on her shoulder with her apple launcher aimed for his heart.

"Aaaaaggh! Please, don't kill me! All I ever wanted was to be paid a big fortune! I'm sorry for everything I did. I'll do anything, make it up to you, or even help you get Sonic back. Just don't think about putting me out of my miseryyyyyyy!" he cried while begging for his life.

Eggman facepalmed at this scene from the control room and lost all faith he had in them while Cubot and Orbot just dropped their jaws in shock.

"Boy, he even sounds worse than me when I beg for mercy," Wily said before shaking his head.

Bayonetta would enjoy his fear too much and begins dancing to prepare another one of her Climaxes for finishing the job. The cornered weasel would be confused and scared at what the tall witch was planning for him and his heart rate grew twice as face.

"Wh..what are you doing? Please, tell me what you have in store for me? I'm not ready to pay for my crimes and I just want my baby to live instead of being destroyed. I don't want to die!" he screamed while crying.

"You aren't going to die, but you sure are going to a better place! Just let me be the one to help you get there!" Knuckles yelled before jumping off his vehicle.

Nack screams and and closed his eyes in fear before the echidna would disappear from his sight. He looks back to see that he was gone wth sweat rolling down his furry face and his heart rate slowing down. Then Knuckles would appear below the Marvelous Queen and knock it into the air with a powerful uppercut to send the purple pest flying into the air. Nack screams in fear and sadness as he spins into the air from the attack. Then Shadow would appear below the ship again in a flash and knocks it with a kick to speed up the process.

"See you in hell, spineless coward!" he responds.

Then he would finally greet the massive triple pair of hairy hands that Bayonetta summoned and would be introduced with a violent game of volleyball with him as their ball. He screams while being beaten around within each blow with the heroes watching from below. The other heroes from Zavok and Egg Robo's defeat would meet them and watch the spectacle above them. Several of them would be laughing at the punishment Bayonetta's "pet" Hekatoncheir is doing while others would be waiting for the right moment for a certain someone to finish this off.

"Tails, why don't you be a good boy and finish things by yourself. This would be the perfect opportunity for you to settle the score with this purple scum," she replied.

The fox would then nod and maneuver the Tornado into the air to fly at his nemesis from above. He would be approaching him at speeds of 120 miles per hour as Gear holds on to the plane with his resistance to the severe G-forces.

Sonic, I will save you after I handle this guy immediately. He won't be bothering us anymore after this.

The last spike from the multi-armed demon would be sending Nack into the air before it slowly disappears back into Hell through Bayonetta's portals, with the incoming plane heading straight for him before spiraling into a good position. Tails would be standing right out of the cockpit with his fist ready as Gear did the same since they had two specific targets to hit.

"Please, stop! I'm sorry I've did this to him. Don't give me that look and put that fist away before you break me apart. Noooooooooooooo!" he screamed.

Then they finally came in contact for the grand finale that would end this fight. Tails's fist came in contact with Nack's face just like how Gear punches into the nose of the Marvelous Queen. It was at that moment that he knows it's over while backing out as the two powerful heroes allies enough force to both targets. The feeling of their excitement during the attack and anger at his actions would be enough to express their triumph at this battle.

"Go back into the darkness where you came from, Nack the Weasel!" they both yelled.

Then the defeated bounty hunter would be sent flying beyond the heavens from the collision to the point that everyone would be in shock over this, even the villains on the ship. As he flew into the highest parts of the sky, he had many thoughts about his loss as his body slowly lose consciousness.

Forgive me Egghead, you now have a reason to be disappointed in my failure. Never really expected that fox kid to get this strong since the last time I fought him and lose to such an underpowered group of heroes. Heh, I'm surprised that I'm still breathing for now until I…. finally close these eyes and play dead… for a while.

The heroes fought bravely with their forces ad took out waves of robotic and organic enemies from the Subspace Leaders. Then Nack would turn the tides by sniping Gilius with his special cannon, which would unfortunately blast Tails and Opa Opa as well during the scene. While the heroes would grieve the loss of their allies, Bayonetta along with a few back-ups would arrive to save them and help finish the three guards of the ship. Egg Robo's best mech would be destroyed and Zavok would topple over the ship he protects thanks to the efforts of the heroes. The cornered Nack would plead for his own safety after all of his best weapons were crippled by the group to be sent skyward and beaten by them Tails and Gear would deal the final blow to send him flying beyond the their view and show these villains that they are in for one hell of a ship invasion. The final chapter for now will be released next Friday EVENING since its back to college for me after that. So that means you will have to wait until the arc will be concluded by the summer since I value my education more than my work. Until then, see you next time.
