Screen fades to Sonic, Shadow and Silver on a trampoline glaring at each other; Each hedgehog is holding a dodgeball tightly.
Sonic(commentating)- Welcome to the ring of destruction, for the inaugural match of "SEGA" bounce battle, where the only rule is (chuckles mischievously) THERE ARE NO RULES!
(Silver raises a hand)
Sonic(pushy)-What?
Silver(stammering)-W-What about biting? I-Is biting allowed?
Sonic- No, Of course not!
Silver-Well, you said there were no-
Sonic-Okay, Silver, fine! No rules "except" for biting.
Shadow- What about headlocks?
Sonic-Of course, anything goes!
Silver- "Except" biting
Sonic(Impatient)- Yes, "except" biting.
Shadow- Well, since we're doing that concert tomorrow night; We don't wanna damage our vocal chords.
Sonic- Oh yeah, didn't think of that.(Commentating) NO RULES! "except" for no biting and NOOO! HEADLOCKS!
(Silver raises his hand again)
Sonic(weary)-What?
(Time has passed and they still haven't played yet. Shadow is writing in a notebook, Sonic is goofing around with his ball and Silver is lying down.)
Silver-(yawns) What about eye poking?
Sonic(Bounces his ball around)- Absolutely not! My favorite show "Chili Dog Wars" is on tonight; So I'm definitely gonna need my eyes.
Shadow(sarcastically)-Ok, that's good. Always nice to have such a clear purpose for your eyes.
Silver-What about leg sweeps?
Sonic- Silver, C'mon! We have our soccer tournament coming up!
Silver- Good point, Sonic.
Shadow-Question for Sonic. "Leg sweep." More of a judo of karate move?
Sonic- It doesn't really belong under the "illegal martial arts" section, Shadow. Put in under sub section four of lower extremities.
Shadow- Okay, got it!
Silver- Pulling quills?
Sonic-Ugh! Silver, no!
Shadow-Foot stomping?
Sonic-Not with your shoes, no.
Silver-What about...Licking?
Sonic and Shadow(angry)-NO!
Sonic-That's it! I don't wanna hear any more about this! It's time to play!
(They realign)
Sonic(commentating)- We now begin the, where the only rule is, THERE ARE NO RULES!
Silver-Yeah,(DJ record scratch sound.) "except" all the ones in Shadow's notebook.
Sonic-Yes, okay "except" for those. Now come on! On your mark. Get set. And-
(All of the sudden, Tom steps out in the backyard)
Tom- Okay guys! Time to come in!
Sonic-Tom! Tom! Please! We're right in the middle of something here.
Silver- It called "SEGA" bounce battle, a battle where there are no rules! "Except" those in Shadow's notebook.
Tom-Guys, no. It sounds too dangerous.
Silver(whining)-Aw shoot!
Sonic-Wait, Lemme go talk to him!
He Dashes inside to speak to Tom.
Sonic- Hey Tom, about "SEGA" f-fluffy f-fun time?
Tom- You mean "SEGA" bounce battle? Where "there are no rules"?
Sonic- "Except" for the one in Shadow's notebook.
Tom- You can't just rename it to make it safer "end of discussion" Anyway we need you guys clothes for the concert so be ready when I get back (leaves)
Sonic- Yeah, whatever.
(The sly blue hedgehog suddenly has an idea and exit the house through the doggie door)
Sonic(faking joy/pretending)-Oh, Tom thank you. You're the best!
Shadow-What'd he say?
Sonic-He agreed we could play ONE round of "SEGA" bounce battle.
Shadow-Really, he seemed so against it before.
Sonic-I know right? Guess I must have worn him down with my way past cool charm! (commentates) Alright everyone. TAKE YOUR POSITIONS!
(They realign again)
Sonic(commentating)- Welcome to the ring of destruction, for the inaugural match of "SEGA" bounce battle, where the only rule is THERE ARE NO RULES!
Silver-Yeah, except those-
Sonic(very impatient)-"Except" for those in the notebook OKAY?! Now...On your mark. Get set. GO!
The three hedgehogs speed towards the center of the trampoline while holding their dodgeballs. In slow motion as they approach the net, they jump and accidentally clash heads and are knocked out.
