Chapter 1, Mania.
Classic dimension.
Little planet, Titanic monarch.
The sky was a deep purple and strange energy could be seen sparking across it like lightning, the powerful base known as the Titanic monarch was falling apart and exploding, and the once powerful Heavy king now known as the Phantom king was lying in broken pieces on the ground.
Sonic was currently in his super form, the last few days had been chaotic for him and his friends, his nemesis Dr Ivo (Eggman) Robotnik, had recently found a strange ruby on Angel island that possessed seemingly unlimited power.
With the ruby Eggman had been able to perform acts that Sonic could hardly believe, to make the situation even more strange five of Eggman's robots had been transformed by the ruby and had tried to overthrow the Doctor and take the ruby for themselves, only to be destroyed by Sonic, Tails, Knuckles or even Eggman himself.
Super Sonic was battling the Doctor who was inside a machine that he had hastily thrown together in a last ditch attempt retake the strange ruby that had been stolen by the now destroyed Phantom king.
Eggman was holding the strange ruby in his hands, looking at it like it was the only thing in his life that mattered, he was so distracted by the ruby that he didn't notice Sonic fly towards him and tear his sorry excuse of a machine to pieces.
The Doctor fell out of his destroyed machine and fell to the ground below, the ruby slipped out of his grasp and just floated in mid-air not moving of doing anything.
Sonic smiled "Alright, this is my chance to end all of this mayhem" he thought as he charged forward with the intent to destroy the ruby, however as he got closer Sonic felt a strange energy that forced him to stop only inchers away from the ruby.
Sonic wasn't sure what was happening, it felt as if all of his strength was being drained away, suddenly there was a flash of light and Sonic was reverted back to his regular form, without the power of the Chaos emeralds Sonic fell to the ground landing next to Eggman.
Sonic looked up and saw that the Chaos emeralds was circling the ruby, suddenly the emeralds began to lose their colour and a dark purple portal opened just behind the ruby, the ruby disappeared into the portal and the now weakened emeralds fell to the ground landing near Sonic.
Eggman was looking at the sky where the ruby had just disappeared, "No, please come back, I need you, please don't leave me" he said in a begging tone, Sonic looked at the Doctor and thought about how strangely he had been acting ever since he found the ruby.
Sonic knew that he needed to get some answers out of the Doctor, that ruby was powerful, it had even given the Phantom king the ability to hurt him in his super state.
Sonic ran up to the Doctor, "Ok Eggman what was that thing, and where did it go" he said, Eggman didn't even acknowledge Sonic's presence, "No please come back" he said sounding almost like a zombie.
Sonic grabbed Eggman by the collar and tried to shake some sense into him, "Eggman pull yourself together", he said, when Sonic looked closer he noticed that something was very wrong with the Doctor.
Sonic knew that Eggman's eyes was supposed to be blue but for some reason they was a deep magenta purple instead, the same magenta as the ruby had been, Sonic slapped the Doctor across the face, "Robotnik snap out of it" he said a little worried now.
Eggman's eyes returned to their natural blue, "Sonic what are you doing, let go of me you repulsive hedgehog" he said as he pushed Sonic away, Eggman looked around in confusion, "Wait, where are we" he asked.
Sonic was confused, "Don't you remember, the Hard boiled heavies, the Titanic monarch, that weird ruby" asked Sonic, "Heavies? Monarch? Ruby?" said Eggman slowly as if he didn't understand.
Suddenly something in Eggman's brain seemed to click into place, "Ruby, the ruby, where is it we must destroy it at once" shouted Eggman in panic, Sonic was worried he'd never seen Eggman act like this.
"I don't know where it went, it just absorbed some of the Chaos emeralds power and disappeared into a portal" explained Sonic, Eggman remained silent as he tried to put everything together.
"The ruby could already teleport itself and others anywhere in the world, but with the emeralds power it could have gone anywhere, even to another dimension" said Eggman, Sonic shrugged "Well if it's in another dimension then I guess it's not our problem anymore" he said.
The Doctor thought about this for a second, "Yes perhaps, but I pity the unfortunate souls who find that thing" he said sounding very serious.
