With Argos and Ryuko were at the Marble Garden zone searching for another chaos emerald along with Silver and Blaze.
"Heh, you and my cousin sound alike when you think about peace and seeing people happy. You're 200 years from the future, huh? I suppose something altered it by now" Argos talking to Silver.
"Sometimes my home gets altered or not, depending on the time events in the past," Silver said.
"Like?" Argos wanted to know.
"The metal virus disappeared from the future after I and Sonic sent it to the sun," Silver said.
"And the future got altered because you saved the past," Argos said.
"Correct. It's my duty to keep it safe" Silver said.
"But every change in timelines, doesn't it cause memory alterations like you never had? Bunnyx once told us that. It's happened to her adult version from the future" Argos said.
"Yes but I can't remember mine," Silver said, since he wasn't there when the Iblis flame got extinguished to ensure Solaris won't be formed.
"Well, let's hope Chrysalis or whoever she is doesn't try anything to imbalance the timelines," Argos said, glancing at Ryuko and Blaze finding the chaos emerald, "Sometimes it reminds me of my father destroying my childhood I never had like I wouldn't gain a better future"
"Sounds like he was abusive" Silver felt bad for him.
"He was but my mother was not. I'm just glad he passed away a year ago so I can never be controlled by him again. That's how I met her, she guided me to the right path. I suppose this doctor guy just wants to stay on the same path, huh?" Argos said.
"Yeah. I've faced his descendant too and he is way scarier. He wanted to destroy the world to rebuild it in his image" Silver told him about Eggman Nega.
"I guess madness runs in his family," Argos said.
"You have no idea" Silver replied.
"It's just like Monarch filled with madness. He was…..my uncle" Argos admitted.
"Your uncle?" Silver raised a brow.
"Yes, he even threatened me once," Argos said.
"But your cousin doesn't know?" Silver said, knowing from Adrien, he never once said that his father was Monarch but a strict man.
"He can't know or it will break him completely," Argos told him.
"Secrets and dark truths don't last long, Felix. Sometimes it's better to tell the truth than have his dream life ruined in the future. Or somehow let the truth come to him in another way. If your uncle really did an emotional manipulation on his son for too long, he would feel completely broken to think everyone is all the same" Silver said, levitating the ruins.
"Of course. I learned from my mistakes and became a better person" Argos said.
"Emotional scars really did punch your conscience, didn't it? Cat Noir once told me about what you did" Silver crossed his arms.
"Please don't bring that up it's too painful" Argos held his hand up.
"Very well. But still, sometimes learning the outcome can be a punch in the face when you learn the hard way. Life has ways to make others see the errors in the outcome. Eggman never tried at all because his mind and heart are corrupted with madness" Silver explained why being selfish or doing something out of hatred can destroy all life.
"Yep. Even manipulation" Argos said.
From afar, Cerise was spying on them. The blue bird was too cunning to her and nothing gets him outsmarted. Even if she copied his powers as Trickster, he would outdo her.
"Oh, just wait bird boy," Cerise said quietly.
"So tell me, are you and Blaze more than friends?" Argos asked.
"Uhhhh…well….." Silver couldn't explain.
"Just friends, yes" Blaze answered.
"Oh, I thought you two are…." Ryuko said.
"A couple" Blaze finished her sentence.
"Yeah, that," Ryuko said.
Silver just stood there blushing, "Ahem, well, what about you two? You seem like you know each other behind the mask" Silver said.
"We do, and we're in a relationship" Argos blushed, making his blue face look pink.
"At first I thought I could love Adrien but instead Felix changed my heart and I changed him," Ryuko said.
"It was in fact on a contract that you and him were to be together," Argos said.
"So it was like an arranged relationship?! Oh crap!" Silver exclaimed.
"Yeah. Until I realized from Argos, that Gabriel and my mother were working together to get the miraculous from Ladybug and Cat Noir. My mother once said that I'm a slave to my emotions because I was not perfect enough to become the next samurai of the family" Ryuko said.
"Damn. Sounds like she's abusive" Blaze said.
"Tell me about it. I despised her mother as well as I despised my uncle and father. But I could never hate my lovely queen" Argos flirted with Ryuko
"Nor could I with my king" Ryuko replied.
"Looks like you two are lovebirds after all" Blaze smirked.
Soon they came to the ruins with spikes, moving platforms, and rings on the ground.
"Um, does this almost feel like a 90s game?" Argos quietly asked Ryuko.
"Hai, it does" Ryuko nodded and jumped over a platform.
When Argos touched the rings, they vanished in his hands, "What the?! Where did they go?!" Argos gasped.
"The rings grant you more health and at times work as currency. Even extends the time someone has a superform" Silver said.
"And the chime noise?" Argos asked.
"It means you've collected it" Silver replied, he hovered up with Blaze.
As they kept going, Ryuko sliced off the chain of one of the mace traps with her sword.
"Whoa!" Argos sliced another with his hand fan.
"Careful, there could be badniks in the area too!" Blaze said.
"Sheesh, that guy really needs a real hobby. How long has he been doing this?" Argos asked before jumping to the next platform.
"Ever since Sonic was eleven" Blaze replied.
"Wow, he started that early?" Argos was surprised.
"Yup. To him it felt like an eternity due to his fast mental mind" Silver said.
"Neat," Argos said.
Just then they saw Eggman appear in his egg mobile with a new robot he has constructed.
"Ah, Silver and Blaze. Brought two for company I see?!" Eggman sneered and flew into the robot, which resembled the Death Egg Robot but with drills like the Egg Drillster Mark II from the zone.
Argos gasped at the familiar bushy mustache his father once had but this madman was apparently much different looking like a human.
"Hohohoho! Now let's see if you four can get a load of this!" Eggman starts the drills.
"Silver! Cover me!" Argos said, knowing how much he hates to use a sentimonster again but he's got no choice since the robot is too big.
"You got it!" Silver nods and flies to engage Eggman.
"Okay, Argos. You got this. Don't get too sentimental" Argos trying to focus on creating another sentimonster to help but scared to erase it again.
He needed an object to place an amok to create one, "Um, okay. The gold ring" Argos grabbed the gold ring and darkened the white feather into blue to place it in the ring, "Okay, concentrate. Something brave, fierce, and strong" He creates the shape of his creation.
Out came a blue and purple werehog. Like the original one years ago but this one could not talk since it's a beast form and it waits for orders by its creator.
"Werehog, attack the robot and help my friends" He told it to aid Ryuko and the mobians.
"AAARRRRROOOOOOOO!" It ran towards to the robot before it startled Eggman to think Sonic had become a werehog again but this one was nothing like him years ago.
"It's broad daylight but how?!" Eggman gasped.
"What did you do?!" Silver asked Argos.
"That's an example of my power. Creating sentibeings" Argos said.
"I see. Now it's five against one" Silver then threw debris at the robot.
"Werehog, don't harm the man. Focus on the robot" Argos holding the amok gold ring to give the sentimonster orders.
The werehog nodded and stretched its fist at the giant robot and Argos flew over to use his fan.
"Ryuko, fly like the wind!" Argos said.
"Wind dragon!" She transforms into air wind.
"Here comes the heat!" Blaze threw two fireballs at Eggman's robot.
"No! No! No! You miserable brats!" Eggman ejected his egg mobile to escape, "You think you won?! Here's something you brats to fight against yourselves!" Eggman called out Metal Argos and Metal Dragon.
"It's a pair of metal copies!" Argos saw them.
Metal Argos unfolded sharp peacock feathers and threw them at him.
"Look out!" Silver stops it with his telekinesis.
"Thanks, Silver!" Argos thumbs up.
"No problem but we got these doppelgängers to deal with! Whoa!" Silver tackled Argos down from Metal Dragon using a flamethrower from its hands.
"I got this!" Ryuko attacks her doubleganger. Using her element of water to extinguish the flames.
"Where your…senti…whatever thing?!" Silver asked.
"A werehog" Argos said.
"Yeah, that" Silver replied and rejoined the battle.
"It's destroying that machine," Argos said.
"Let's finish it!" Blaze powers up.
"Watch out!" Silver stopped the incoming sharp blades of feathers from Metal Argos.
Ryuko then switches to lightning mode on her sword, "Blaze, distract my counterpart!" She said.
"Got it!" Blaze nods and attacks Metal Ryuko.
Ryuko rushes to deliver the blow from behind.
"I have an idea. Our voices sound alike!" Silver said.
"Then let's confuse its programming! Hey, bird brain! Is that all you got!" Argos taunting it to lure it.
Metal Argos beeped and dashed towards him but Silver shouted from behind, "GET OVER HERE!"
"YOOHOOO! Over here!" Argos hiding behind the pillar.
Metal Argos starts rotating its head 360 degrees to focus on the voices.
"What's the matter?! Can't fly like a bird?!" Silver taunted again while hiding behind the boulder.
Metal Argos beeps in anger and fires lasers from its eyes at the pillars.
"WATCH OUT!" Silver moved Argos out of the way.
"Agh! Okay, new plan. Werehog needs to distract it!" Argos whistled for Werehog to come here.
It ran over to Argos to get the orders. Snarling at the robot which caused its programming to detect dangerous hazards.
"RAAAAAAARGH!" The werehog lunged at Metal Argos and tore it apart with its strength.
Silver looks away, "The real Werehog Sonic wouldn't do brutal like that"
"If it was organic," Argos said.
"Let's help the girls before they get roasted to death," Silver said.
"Yes!" Argos ran with him.
Metal Dragon clashed her own heated blade against Ryuko's sword, trying to push it but the robot was too strong.
"It's too strong!" Ryuko groaned as she struggled.
"Our hearts are our strength, Ryuko!" Blaze struggled to control the flames from another.
"Water dragon!" Ryuko turns into water. With Blaze's help, they created steam clouds to confuse it.
"Silver! Argos!" Blaze called for them.
"Coming through!" Argos threw the sharp fan at Metal Ryuko, "Silver, pinball throw!"
"Coming up!" Silver spins into a ball and dashes towards Metal Ryuko.
Ryuko forms back to her shape before hearing her miraculous beeping, "My time's up!" She gasps.
"What do you mean?" Blaze asked.
"When I use my powers, I get a countdown until my transformation wears off" Ryuko explained.
"Go hide. I'll cover you" Blaze said before helping the boys.
"Now Werehog! Finish it off!" Argos shouted.
"ARRRRROOOOOOOOO!" The sentimonster charged at Metal Dragon and tore its head off. The body soon blew into bits after another punch.
The sentimonster stopped what it was doing since it was given life to protect its creator but now it was time to come to its end. Argos hesitated again to release it like last time with Red Moon.
Ryuko came back fully transformed after feeding her kwami, noticing Argos not wanting to do what he can't do again since he told her that he's nothing like the previous peacock holders.
"Argos, you have to set it free. I know what you told me before but you can't make more than one" Ryuko said.
"Right. Werehog, you have served us well. I hereby set you free. I release you from your existence" Argos reluctantly releases it with a snap of his fingers. The werehog salutes before it vanishes.
"On the bright side, Argos. He fought with us until the end" Blaze comforted him.
"Huh? So that's your power? Creating beings into anything?" Silver asked.
"Yes. It is. Aside from flying" Argos said.
"I see" Silver replied.
"This isn't over yet heroes! I'll be back!" Eggman shouted from his egg mobile.
"Grr! That coward! Just like him!" Argos glared and took out his wisdom and went to the music mode, "Time to rock and roll!"
RHYTHM
"HUH?! NO!" Eggman gasped. The music blaring with music notes causes a headache at Eggman, "You haven't seen the last of me!" Eggman flew away.
What they all didn't know was that the music blared at the ruins to reveal the chaos emerald.
"There it is again," Blaze said.
"Is that it? It's not even an emerald color" Argos said.
"They can't all be green," Blaze said.
"Well, at least we found one. I sure hope the others are doing great" Solver said.
"I gotta admit, Silver. Your telekinesis saved my life" Argos said.
"You're welcome," Silver said.
