"After a while time started to slow down and we had to split the two worlds apart. Tails and Chuck created something that worked with a Chaos Emerald and the ARK's power together. When I was about to go threw, Chris stopped me but after a while he let me go. I had already collected the Emeralds so transformed into Super Sonic and teleported to Mobius in time to stop Robotnik again. Mom, Sonia and Manic forced me to stay at the castle for a week to make sure I didn't anywhere after that. That wasn't fun but oh well. Six months later I ended up in space fighting Dark Oak as Super Sonic again. That was exhausting! He wanted them so I had to send them flying through space. I passed out after losing Super Sonic but Robotnik helped me a little after that. Someone from another planet named Cosmo came to us shortly after and we ended up going to space to find the Emeralds again. But while we did that Knuckles was tricked again by Robotnik. There are days I just want to strangle them both…"

In a Secco city inhabitants were thronging the streets of the once-flooded city while Chris, Sonic, Tails, and Amy stood before the Secco Elder.

"We are grateful for your heroism. You saved our Planet Egg and our planet. We shall do our best to bestow upon you the thanks that you deserve by holding a festival today in your honor! A parade, music, dancing, and a feast to show our thanks!" Secco elder said and Sonic whistled.

"Sounds good to me!" Sonic said.

"Me too! 'Specially the feast part!" Amy said.

"Sounds like fun, Tails." Chris said.

"I'm not so sure I'm gonna like this..." Tails said and the festival began with much dancing.

The festival involved a parade of giant wooden ships with one carrying the heroes.

"They go all out." Chris said.

"Yeah." Sonic said as the elder was dancing upon a high platform.

The elder is dancing upon a high platform.

"One... Two... Three! Hahaah!" Secco Inhabitant said and one of the Secco Inhabitants tossed Sonic into the air in celebration.

"That's it! Now everybody!" Secco Elder said and tossed Tails into the air next followed by Amy.

"Oh, I just can't get enough!" Secco Inhabitant while everyone was thrown into the air.

"Why are they throwing us?" Chris asked.

"Don't knoooww!" Sonic said bouncing on a giant trampoline.

"Haha! This is how we honor heroes!" Secco Elder said.

"There they are!" someone said.

Soon Knuckles, Cosmo, Cream, and Cheese joined them .

"Look what I have!" Cosmo said and Sonic saw the object while bouncing.

"A Chaos Emerald... Who found it?" Sonic asked.

"I did, 'cause I wasn't too busy partying with the locals." Knuckles said.

"Wow, that looks like fun!" Cream said.

"Chao chao!" Cheese said.

"Yeah, if you wanna feel like a yo-yo..." Knuckles said.

"Why are they bouncing you like that?" Cosmo asked.

"It's for getting their Planet Egg back!" Chris said.

"It's a token of their appreciation." Sonic said.

"I'm appreciated enough!" Tails said.

"I can't take much more!" Amy said

"This is so wonderful." Cosmo said and looked back at the Chaos Emerald. "I can't believe that we already found one."

"This means we have only six more to find, doesn't it, Cosmo?" Cream asked.

Meanwhile the Secco Elder had overheard them.

"You down there, friends of the heroes! Let us honor you too! Throw them here!" Secco Elder said and soon Cream and Cosmo were also bouncing on the giant trampoline. "Come defy the forces of gravity!" he said and Knuckles waved his hand.

"I'm actually a big fan of gravity." Knuckles said.

Little do they know they were being watched by a spy drone.

On the Crimson Egg Eggman was watching the festival on a screen laughing.

[laughs] "So nice of Sonic and his friends to find the Chaos Emerald for me! Let's see... What sort of strategic strategy should I come up with to get it from them?" he said.

"Aren't all strategies strategic?" Bocoe asked.

"Not Dr. Eggman's. His strategies lack strategies the way his tactics lack tact." Decoe said.

"And his thinking less thought." Bokkun said and Eggman pounded his hand on the console before turning to Decoe and Bocoe.

"Since the three of you are so brilliant, why don't you come up with a plan?" Eggman asked.

"Huh?" Decoe said.

"Huh?" Bocoe said.

[threatening] "But whatever you do, do not disappoint me!" Eggman said threating them and his foreboding tone got through them

Suddenly Decoe and Bocoe grasped their heads.

"Uh... I-I've got a headache all of a sudden!" Decoe said.

"Me too! I can't concentrate right now! It's unbearable!" Bocoe said.

"I think I need to lie down for awhile!"

"Aww, you have headaches?" Eggman asked and they nodded. "Guess the doctor's gonna have to operate!" he said and they froze as he pulled out various tools and Bokkun sweat as Eggman chased them around the cockpit of the ship with a large wooden hammer. "Get back here!"

"I'm gonna go check on the, uh... the thing..." Bokkun said and when no one was looking, he descended an elevator into the room below and gave a sigh of relief. "I got away before he could grab me." he said when a hand dragged him backward, and he found himself staring into the face of Rouge. "Rouge!"

"Hi there. I just dropped by to ask if you'll do me a little favor." Rouge said.

"I'd have to be totally batty to do any favors for you! Ha! Just wait'll I tell Dr. Eggman you-" he started but she hushed him.

"Really." she said and he watted her hand away. "You don't wanna do that, do you? Your little secret might get out."

"I don't know what you're talking about!" he said and dangled a heart-shaped locket in front of him.

"Oh no? Does this look familiar?" she asked and he blushed.

["Yeah... it's mine..." he said and lunged for the locket but she dodged.

"I checked out the picture inside. She's so pretty.

"Please don't say anything! I'll do whatever you want me to do, I promise! Just please don't tell anybody, please!"

"Hmhm... Good boy."

Outside something started to surface from underground.

"Ribbit." they said.

Back on the Crimson Egg Eggman was still chasing Decoe and Bocoe around the cockpit.

"Please, Doctor!" Decoe said.

"You worthless metal moochers!" Eggman said.

"I'm too young to be dismantled!" Decoe said and Bokkun returned to the cockpit.

"I hate to do this..." Bokkun said. "Hey, Dr. Eggman!" he shouted out and everyone stopped running.

"Yes?" Eggman asked.

"I just got an idea!" Bokkun said and Eggman knelt as he whisped in his ear and he stood up.

"Egg-cellent! One of the most brilliant plans I've ever come up with!"

"Except that I came up with it!"

"Are you contradicting me, Bokkun?"

"We're off the hook!" Decoe said.

"I never thought I would be glad that Bokkun's around." Bocoe said.

[to Eggman] "But it was my plan!" Bokkun said.

"And now it's mine." Eggman said.

Outside Rouge finished spying on the Crimson Egg through a pair of binoculars and left.

Meanwhile Knuckles was at Secco walking alone.

"I don't care if it's an honor or not. Nobody tosses me around!" he said and looked up to see the Eggmobile flying over him. "That looks like..." he started when the Eggmobile crashed. "Eggman!" he said, ran over to the crater Eggman landed in and Eggman coughed before looking up at him.

"Knuckles, it's you! What good fortune!" Eggman said and stood up. "Ahh, finally, someone who can help me!" he said surprising Knuckles with his sudden change in mood.

"Help you? Not a chance!"

"Oh Knuckles, please, you have to hear me out! My ship ran out of power and crashed on this desolate planet. If I don't find a way to leave," Eggman said. "I'll be trapped here the rest of my life! It's my fault! I'm getting what I deserve!" he said exaggerating and Knuckles put a hand on his shoulder.

"Come on, cool it. Don't be so hard on yourself."

"I just got so carried away with wanting to take over the universe. I was evil, and greedy... It's true! I wanted planets and entire galaxies all to myself, but if I get off this rock, I'll never turn a moon into a devastating weapon or block out a planet's sun again, I swear! If only I had a Chaos Emerald for my ship. I could leave here and start my new life as a good person!" Eggman said secretly grinning, meaning he was not genuine.

On a beach the party was long over and Knuckles told Sonic and friends about Eggman's proposition.

"Aahh!" Sonic, Tails, Amy, Cream, Chris and Cosmo said.

"You want us to let Dr. Eggman use the Chaos Emerald?" Sonic said and Knuckles nodded.

"He's promised to abandon his evil ways if we help him out." Knuckles said annoying everyone at his gullibility, either sighing or shaking their heads.

"We're heard that before." Tails said.

"Tails is right, Knuckles." Chris said.

"Dr. Eggman is always saying he'll abandon his evil ways, but he never does!" Cream said and Amy rubbed her sore backside.

"And yet every time, he somehow gets you to believe him." Amy said and Knuckles unleashed the anger he'd been holding in.

"Well I wasn't asking your permission!" Knuckles said, approached Cosmo and took the Chaos Emerald from her. "I'm the one who found this Emerald, so I'll do what I want with it!"

Knuckles said, approached Cosmo and took the Chaos Emerald from her.

"I'm the one who found this Emerald, so I'll do what I want with it!" he said and started to leave but Sonic cut him off.

"I can't let you do this, Knuckles!" Sonic said.

"You're gonna have to fight me to stop me."

"Yeah. I know."

"If that's the way you want it..." he said grinning.

"Sonic! Knuckles! What are you two doing?" Cosmo asked while Knuckles putthe Chaos Emerald on a nearby rock before preparing to fight Sonic.

"Ready?"

"Ready!" she said and Cosmo looked on in worry as they started their fight.

"They're... fighting..." Cosmo said while Knuckles launched a flying punch at Sonic who dodged and he ended up punching the ground instead.

Then she took this opportunity to launch a flurry of punches at him, but he blocked them with his free fist and they kept clashing, involving punches, kicks, and body slams while Cosmo looked on in worry.

"We've got to do something to stop this fighting! Hey...!"

"Do these boots make my legs too skinny?" Amy asked Cream.

"They look just fine, Amy." Cream said.

"Chao chao chao chao." Cheese said blushing.

"You wanna go take the X-Tornado for a spin?" Chris asked Tails.

"Sure, why not?" Tails said.

"Excuse me, shouldn't we stop Knuckles and Sonic?" Cosmo asked.

"Uh, nah. This is how they work their problems out."

"Yeah, they do this all the time." Chris said and Amy rubbed her injured backside again, incurred from bouncing on the trampoline for too long.

"They'll just fight until they get tired of fighting." Amy said and Cream nodded.

[nods] "It isn't a big deal."

"Chao chao-chao." Cheese said.

"They just don't understand these creatures..." Cosmo said quietly and looked behind her as the fighting became more violent and Knuckles was lunging toward Sonic repeatedly, but she dodged each time. "I can't take it anymore!" she said and ran forward as Sonic stopped on a small ledge. "Please stop it!" she said and Sonic immediately leapt off the ledge as Knuckles punched where she just was and Cosmo cringed as rocks flew around her. "This isn't right."

"Hey Cosmo, I wouldn't get too close if I were you." Amy said.

From behind a rock, Eggman quietly watched the fight between Sonic and Knuckles.

"My plan worked perfectly! He left the Chaos Emerald unguarded." Eggman said to himself crawling toward the abandoned Chaos Emerald. "No one will even know I was here!" he said to himself when Bokkun flew up to him nearly blowing his cover.

"Hi, Dr. Eggman!" Bokkun said waving.

"Maybe If I ignore him, he'll disappear-" Eggman started but saw Bokkun standing right in front of him.

"You forgot your lunch!" Bokkun said and Eggman cried out at his sudden reappearance. "If you wanna conquer the universe, you gotta stay healthy, you know!" he said, produced a banana and Eggman covered Bokkun's mouth.

"Quiet, or they'll discover me!"

"Sorry about that, heheh..."

"Go to the ship and don't come back!"

"I won't, Dr. Eggman!"

As Bokkun flew away once more, Rouge lowered her binoculars.

"That kid's gonna be reeeal useful." she said while Eggman nearly reached the Chaos Emerald.

"At last, a Chaos Emerald! Nothing can stop me now!" Eggman said but Amy stepped between him and the Chaos Emerald hefting her hammer with a smirk he learned to fear.

"That's what you think, but you're wrong." Amy said and he cowered back.

"I-I... can... explain...!" he said, and panicked as she slammed her hammer down, forcing him to scoot back. "Yipe! Watch where you swing that thing!" he said and soon found himself surrounded by Cream, Cheese, Cosmo, Tails and Chris. "How wonderful to see you all again!" he asked while Sonic and Knuckles have no idea what's going on.

Soon they got into a shoving fight and Sonic looked up to see Eggman surrounded.

"I had a pretty good feeling we'd be seein' his ugly mug." she said and the fighting immediately stopped and Knuckles approached Eggman.

"Eggman! What are you doin' here?" Knuckles asked.

"You mean me?" Eggman asked and picked up the banana next to him. "I-I was just about to consume this delicious banana!" he said, peeled and ate the banana. "Tasty!"

"I know exactly what you're doing here, Eggman. You went to Knuckles because you knew he'd have pity on you and he and Sonic would fight about it, so you could go behind your backs and steal the Chaos Emerald!" Amy said, slammed the top of her hammer down near the Chaos Emerald and Eggman cowered.

"Eggman, is that true?" Knuckles asked.

"No, of course not! She's lying, Knuckles!" Eggman said.

"Payback time!" Amy said and raised her hammer high above her head, ready to crack that Eggman wide open.

"No, Amy." Knuckles said, lifted Eggman out of the way just as the hammer came down and set him down on a rock.

"I know I can always count on you, Knuckles." Eggman said.

"Knuckles, you have got to be kidding me! How many more times are gonna fall for Eggman's tricks? Think about it!" Amy said.

Eggman was begging Knuckles in an alley.

"Help me, please!" Eggman said

"Are you sure we can go back if we get a hold of the Chaos Emerald?" Knuckles asked and Eggman grinned evilly.

Chris and Knuckles stood before Eggman with a backpack containing five Chaos Emeralds.

"Please let me keep the Chaos Emerald? Please?" Eggman said and Knuckles handed him the backpack and they shook hands. "Why, thank you so much, Knuckles!"

"No, thank you, Dr. Eggman!" Knuckles said.

"I will give these Chaos Emeralds the utmost care." Eggman said surprising Chris.

"I'll trust you."

"I will soon realize the Eggman Empire!" Eggman said and the flashbacks ended.

"Seriously, Eggman's never gonna change." Amy said.

"Eggman says he's seen the light, and I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and help him get off this planet!" Knuckles said and Eggman nodded while he leapt down from the rock.

"Here we go again..." Sonic said when Cream and Cheese approached.

"Eggman lied before, Knuckles, and now he's lying again!" Cream said.

"I'm giving him the Chaos Emerald." Knuckles said.

Meanwhile Rouge started eavesdropping on the conversation.

"You're gonna have to go through me to get it!" Amy said.

"Is that so?" Knuckles asked and Sonic immediately darts in front of him, putting out a hand to defend Amy.

"But first you'll have to go through me!" Sonic said.

"You got a deal!"

"Let me at him!" Amy said.

"This is terrible! They shouldn't be fighting with each other!" Cosmo said to herself and rushed up to Sonic and Knuckles before they could fight again. "Stop fighting, you two! We have to focus on the bigger crisis threatening all of us! If all we do is argue an fight, how are we supposed to band together and save the universe?"

"Out of the way, Cosmo!" Knuckles said.

"We don't want you to get hurt." Sonic said and Cosmo fell back as the rivalry continued.

"Maybe I was wrong. Maybe they aren't the heroes I thought they were." Cosmo said to her self when suddenly the ground started to rumble and Eggman looked around dismayed.

"What now?" Eggman asked.

Suddenly a giant hand scooped up Cosmo and rose into the air attached to an even bigger robot called Egg Mars. It turned its giant head toward Eggman being piloted by Decoe and Bocoe.

"Dr. Eggman! We're sorry we kept you waiting!" Decoe said.

"We're here to rescue you!" Bocoe said.

"Metal meddlers, I don't need rescuing!" Eggman said and the Egg Mars turned to face him as its green chest flashed with his emblem.

"Bokkun told us you were in trouble." Decoe said.

"A jam." Bocoe said.

"A predicament."

"What did he say?" Eggman asked.

"He told us that nobody fell for your plan to steal the Chaos Emerald." Bocoe said and the Egg Mars extended its free left hand to him, and he climbed upon it.

"I wouldn't go so far as to say nobody fell for it. Knuckles certainly did." Eggman said and covered his mouth, realizing what he just said.

"I don't believe it..." Knuckles said. "Eggman!" he said and the hand lifted Eggman into the air.

"Sorry, Knuckles. What can I say?"

"Hate to say "I told you so"..." Sonic started.

"You tricked me!" Knuckles said.

"That's right." Eggman said, climbed off the hand and joined Decoe and Bocoe in the cockpit before typing on a keypad. "But now you'll give me that Emerald or I'll crush your friend in the palm of my giant metal hand!" he said, held out his fist and the Egg Mars did the same, indicating motion control.

"This is a much better plan than the last one." Decoe said.

"Your microphone is still on, Decoe." Bocoe said and the Egg Mars' right hand opened slightly, revealing Cosmo to everyone's surprise.

"What do we do?" Cream asked.

"Chao chao?" Cheese asked while Tails and Chris also saw this.

"Come on, Tails!" Chris said.

"Cosmo!" Tails said and they ran toward the Egg Mars while Rouge snuck up near the Chaos Emerald.

"Now's my chance." Rouge said.

"Put her down, Eggman!" Knuckles said.

"Don't think so." Eggman said.

"Give us the Chaos Emerald. Then we'll drop her! I-I mean put her down gently." Bocoe said.

Meanwhile, Rouge feasts her eyes on the Chaos Emerald.

"Hello, beautiful..." she said but as she was about to take it, the ground started rumbling. "What's goin' on here?"

Suddenly she and the Chaos Emerald were thrown into the air by a huge frog-like Metarex called Metarex Jumpee getting the attention of everyone else nearby.

"It's a Metarex!" Chris said.

As the Chaos Emerald fell, Jumpee extended its giant dagger-like tongue and devoured the artifact, then licked its lips.

"That frog's a jewel hog!" Rouge said, left and Eggman stared down Metarex Jumpee.

"Gaahh! That thing ate the Emerald! All right, boys! Annihilate that amphibian and the Emerald is ours!" Eggman said and the Egg Mars stood to its full height of twenty meters.

"Whatever you say, Doctor!" Decoe said and the Egg Mars dropped Cosmo, ran toward Metarex Jumpee and Knuckles leapt into the air and caught her.

"Are you okay?" Knuckles asked.

"Forget me! Get the Emerald!" Cosmo said.

Meanwhile Jumpee prepared itself for a fight as the Egg Mars collided with the giant frog Metarex.

"Yaah!" Eggman said so Bocoe pressed a button and the Egg Mars' right hand became a drill that tried to penetrate Jumpee's armor but no damage was done. "Whaah! The drill isn't working!"

"Its armor is too strong!" Decoe said.

"What's that thing made of?" Bocoe said.

Using its tongue, Jumpee flipped the Egg Mars onto its back by the drill and the Egg Mars' pilots were thrown out of their seats.

"We just got a tongue lashing!" Eggman said.

"I don't think we can beat it, Dr. Eggman." Decoe said.

"I have a plan. Let's let Sonic and the others take care of it." Bocoe said.

"Get this thing back on it s feet and keep battling!" Eggman said.

"You who disturb the order of the universe! Ribbit! You cannot have the Chaos Emeralds. You misuse their power. Ribbit! We are the only ones who should possess the Emeralds." Jumpee said.

"Really. I'll take a stab at seizing it anyway!" Eggman said and the Egg Mars stood up again. "Stand still, so I can make a frog kebab!"

The Egg Mars reached behind itself and drew a large sword and then thrust it toward Jumpee, who jumped high into the air. Before landing, it used its tongue to trap the Egg Mars' right arm.

The Egg Mars used its left hand to grab Jumpee's tongue, but the tongue sent out an electric current shocking the Egg Mars and its occupants exploded and sending Eggman, Decoe, and Bocoe into the air.

"I think that frog just skewered us!" Bocoe said and Jumpee retracted its tongue.

Knuckles charged toward Jumpee with his Shovel Claws but didn't even make a dent in Jumpee's singular eye.

All the Metarex had to do was turn its head to shake off Knuckles. Not even Sonic's spin dash damaged Jumpee's eye. Jumpee impacted its tongue several times into the ground near them but they successfully dodged.

"I cannot allow you to deter me. I have a mission. I have come for the Planet Egg." Jumpee said as it reacted its tongue.

"Do you think they can stop it?" Cream asked.

"They have to! If it captures the Planet Egg, the whole planet will flood again!" Cosmo said.

"We're open to suggestions, Cosmo." Amy said.

"Don't worry, guys!" someone said and Amy, Cream, and Cosmo turned to see Chris and Tails standing next to a large brown object. I've got an idea!" Chris said as I've got an idea!"

"Sonic!" Knuckles said and he and Sonic cut Jumpee off.

"We're not done with you yet!" Sonic said and spiked protrude from the six holes in Jumpee's chin and stomach.

Jumpee leapt high into the air and nearly crushed them, but they raced back to the others.

"Oh man, how do we stop this thing?" Knuckles asked.

"Hey Metarex! Over here!" Chris said standing in the crow's nest of a ship that was resting on top of the sand.

"He has the... the Planet Egg..." Cosmo said shocked as Chris held the spherical Planet Egg and Jumpee turned to face him.

"So... you have been hiding it from me. Ribbit!" Jumpee said and Chris pulled on a rope, extending the ship's sails.

"If you want it, come and get it!" Chris said.

"You will regret this!"

Then the modified ship rolled across the sands, with Jumpee in hot pursuit.

"We have to do something to help him." Cosmo said.

"Maybe Chris knows what he's doing." Amy said.

"But still..."

"I'm not waiting to find out!" Knuckles said and ran after Chris.

"You know what? Somethin' tells me this plan involves the big cannon!" Sonic said and ran the other way.

Meanwhile Jumpee was still chasing Chris.

"All right! He fell for it!" Chris said to himsel and held up the Planet Egg. "Ha! Come catch me if you can! Closer... Closer... Now! Sonic!" he said and leapt out of the crow's nest, much to Cosmo's alarm but he bounced on a trampoline in the ship.

"The Heave-Ho Festival!" Cream said in realization and he threw the Planet Egg with all his might.

"Sonic, catch!" he said and Jumpee looked up at the Planet Egg as it sailed through the air.

On the Blue Typhoon deck Sonic stood prepared as the Sonic Driver was activated and he ran inside the cannons barrel and lay down on the spin platform.

"Connecting energy from the energy chamber to the main cannon! Pressurizing the energy within the cannon's electrical ducts! Okay, ready, Sonic?" Tails said over income.

"Do I really have to go through with this." Sonic said.

"Get serious, Sonic! We've got Secco's Planet Egg and the Chaos Emerald and the whole universe at stake!"

"All right!" she said and stood up. "Here we go." she said and started her spin, charging the cannon.

Back at Secco Knuckles charged toward Metarex Jumpee, scaled Jumpee and leapt into the air, catching the Planet Egg while Amy, Cream, and Cosmo watched in horror as Jumpee used its tongue to bind him and Chris saw this clinging to the mast.

Back on the Blue Typhoon Sonic kept spinning in the Sonic Driver.

"Hold your position steady, Sonic. Metarex target straight ahead!" Tails said and the targeting computers locked on to Jumpee. "Sonic Power Cannon, fire!"

After charging energy, the Sonic Driver launched Sonic at Jumpee and she impacted the giant frog Metarex squarely, getting Jumpee to explode.

"Oh yeah!" Chris said.

Meanwhile Knuckles, was free and landing on the ground while the girls approached him.

"Knuckles!" Cosmo said.

"Are you okay?" Cream asked.

"Yeah, and I think the Planet Egg is okay too." Knuckles said when the Planet Egg popped deflating much to Cosmo's shock. "I didn't do it!"

"Is that a... beach ball?" Amy asked.

"Sonic!" Chris said as Sonic leapt up to the crow's nest where Chris was and they high-fived.

"Yes!" they said together.

Later it was sunsetand flowers were everywhere while Knuckles was kneeling and looked at Sonic and Chris.

"I owe all of you a really big apology." he said.

"We're not gonna hold it against ya, Knuckles. You made a bad call, that's all." Sonic said.

"I guess so, but... how could I let Eggman fool me?"

"Eggman knows he tricked you once before, and it worked again." Chris said and Knuckles grumbled.

"Don't feel bad, Knuckles. You have a very trusting heart, and you want to believe that there is good in everybody." Cosmo said. "Because like me, you have a dream that everyone in the universe will unite one day."

"Uh, thanks for looking at it that way, Cosmo." Knuckles aid, nodded and got up. "Who knows. Maybe that is the reason." he said and they held hands.

"I think it is."

"That's a nice way of looking at it, Knuckles. But that doesn't change the fact that you're a sucker." Sonic said and Knuckles turned to her as they laughed.

"I'm gonna-" he said but was interupted.

"Let's start searching for the other Chaos Emeralds." Tails said.

On the Crimson Egg cockpit Decoe and bocoe were depressed.

"What number failure was that, Bocoe?" Decoe asked.

"I lost count somewhere around fifty." Bocoe said.

"Whatever number it was, it better be the last! I'm tired of you tin cans ruining everything." Eggman said.

"It's not our fault! It was Bokkun's plan!"

"And he's the one who gave your position away and told us to save you." Bocoe said annd Eggman growled.

"Wait'll I get my hands on him!" Eggman said.

Below deck Bokkun was sulking while Rouge stood nearby.

Aww, don't feel bad, sugar. You did everything right. It'll work out next time. There will be a next time, won't there?" Rouge said.

Not for me!" Bokkun said.

You sure?" she asked, held up the locket again and he blushed.

"Whatever you say..." he said and doodled on the ground with his finger. "I'll do whatever you want." he said and she smirked while he cried as the Crimson Egg left Planet Secco's atmosphere and flew away.

"Eventually we found the Emeralds and learned that Shadow survived that fall, somehow. Then again, he is the Ultimate Lifeform. He got amnesia, again, and joined Robotnik along with Rouge after though. We had gotten into a Super fight and had to look for the Emeralds again. In the end we, Robotnik, Shadow, Rouge and Cosmo worked together to defeat Dark Oak. It took a Super Sonic and Super Shadow fight and Cosmo giving her life but we still won. Shadow had gone missing again after and we all thought it was the end but eventually he appeared again and had adapted to living in Mobius with Rouge's help. Rouge joined us on our adventures fighting Robotnik along with Shadow now and then. A few months later we met Silver and that ended up with a Super fight two hundred years in the future where Silver is from. We were all shocked when we learned Silver could create Chaos Control but it helped that he could go Super like us. Me and Silver are a mixture of friends and rivals. But now and then we work together and end up winning."
