• I'll show you what true speed REALLY is!
• Oh, new competition!
• Behold, the power of the Chaos Emeralds!
• All right! Bring it on!
• Let’s try again!
• All right! Now we're talking!
• Let's crack some Eggheads Super Sonic style!
• You're too slow!

• I'll do my best!
• Ha-ha, did you see that?

• Don't get in my way!

• So, YOU'RE supposed to be the fastest thing alive?!

• You think you could win with that board.
• Storm, at least learn to knock before entering a room.

• Oh, that girl! Who does she think she is?!
• (starting a race) Not gonna hold back!
• (winning in first place) Told you so!

Amy Rose: Oh, that girl! Who does she think she is?!

Sonic: Yeah! How can she just walk in and diss Tails?!

• A girl? Please tell me what Sonic needs from this cat girl!
• Hmph! You're so mean, Sonic!
• Nice to meet you! Are you looking for Sonic? I'm warning you though, I'm Sonic's girlfriend!
• Man, you're stubborn! You can rely on your friends, you know.

• It seems you like playing with fire. Let me light up your fingers.
• Yes. My name is Blaze the Cat.
• Stay out of this. This is my responsibility, so I'll deal with it.
• Perhaps... Perhaps you're right. I can rely on friends, if I let myself...
• Led by the Chaos Emeralds, my world has begun to enter yours.
• We're going to fly again? Uh, wait a sec. I'm kinda scared of heights...Aaah!
• Because she's my friend... I must rescue Cream by myself.
• I'll see you again.
• You can't escape me!
• How's that?
• Never get on my bad side!
• My enemies always fall before me.
• (panicked) Cream! Do you hear me, Cream!?
• What do you know? I am the Guardian of the Sol Emeralds. It is a duty that forces me to live with my curse... my flames... Because of my powers I have always been alone!
• Sonic! It's headed right for you!

• I've never seen you before. Would you like to be friends?
• Amy has "Sonic Radar"! So wherever Amy goes, we'll find Sonic!
• Blaze is my friend, and Amy's my friend. A friend of a friend is a friend! So, Sonic and Amy are also Blaze's friends!
• Huh? You don't need to thank me. We're friends, aren't we?

• Sonic, you little pest! Soon, the ultimate power will be within my grasp, and I shall be invincible!
• I'll never give up this last Sol Emerald!
• A pity you cannot comprehend the power of the Sol Emeralds.
• We're ready for you, Sonic! Our ultimate mecha will crush you!
• Enough of your babbling! See, they are here!
• Get ready to be scholled!

• But in the end, you will be destroyed by... Eggman Nega!
• It's best to get someone else to do the dirty work.
• Then we can create our own dream world. It'll be an Eggman Land beyond this dimension!
• My incredibly profound plans... It was such a small miscalculation that I made. It shouldn't matter. And it's not over yet. Just give me some time, and I'll...

• Man, this makes me so angry. I want to punch something! Arrrgh! (Punches a rock, shattering it)
• I sense a familiar power... Do you have Chaos Emeralds?
• Hey, you, cat woman! It's payback time!

• Idle hands can be a dangerous thing, Sonic! The ultimate power that Eggman spoke of... I wonder what kind of power he was talking about.
• There's a tear in the space-time continuum... and it's expanding! If it continues to expand... the fabric of reality will become altered!

• Hey, what's up? Eggman's got another crazy scheme, and we saw some mysterious girl... Things are starting to get interesting, eh Tails?
• I admire your fortitude, but... carrying the entire world on your shoulders?
• As long as you have the power of friendship, the Sol Emeralds... will never lose their glow!
• This is from me. I'll see you again!
• As long as the person holding the emeralds can control them... and knows how to use them, nothing can go wrong.
• Let's do it.

Knuckles: Hey, Cream. It's been a while.

Blaze: Uh, who is this guy?

Cream: That's Knuckles. He's a tough guy, but he isn't very bright.

Knuckles: What?!

Cream: Aaah!

Blaze: (Thinking) It doesn't look like Cream is too bright herself.

• I don't believe it! [After achieving an "S" rank]
• not bad! [After achieving an "A" rank]
• How was that? [After achieving an "B" rank]
• I'm a bit tired. [After achieving an "C" rani

I lose.... [After achieving an "D" rank]

• I got hurt!

• Now Princess, this way please...
• I've come here to obtain the secret of the Flames of Disaster from you. And to take the miracle gems that are the key to its secret... The Chaos Emerald!
• A pleasure to meet you at last, dear Princess of Soleanna.
• You wasted so much of my time!
• (After Shadow enters the train by breaking through the ceiling) Wouldn't the door have been easier?
• Mephiles played us all for fools! His plan all along was to cause the Princess to be so consumed with despair that she'd cry.
• Here I come, Sonic! (during the Egg Wyvern boss battle)
• It's no use! Pull back pull Back! (starting to leave from Mephiles being free)
• I'm not finished yet!
• Why you little... Upper cannons open fire! Shoot him down!
• Not that blue hedgehog again! ATTACK!!

• Wuahahahaha! Oh, how ironic fate can be! I would never have believed I would be resurrected through your shade! I thank you. Shadow the Hedgehog!
• I'm Mephiles, Mephiles the Dark. [long pause] What, did you forget me? I owe much to you, Shadow. [short pause] Oh, yes. [energy ball in his hand] What you gave to me, I now return to you: a 1-way ticket to oblivion!
• I was expecting you sooner.
• As you must know, you're already too late.
• But it still time for you to change your mind. Join me, Shadow. Let us teach this world a lesson and rewrite the future.
• It's a pity, Shadow the Hedgehog. Truly a shame that you would fight against me.
• Hahahahahaha, ahahahahaha!!! Finally, the seal is broken! At long last, I will be able to join with you, IBLIS!! Now, Chaos Emerald. It's time for the final curtain call!
• Just as a flower comes from a seed or a chicken comes from an egg, everything has an origin.
• [to Omega during first battle] You're just a nuisance... robot.
• [taking damage in Boss Battle] Gah!
• [after Silver finds him in Soleanna] Why does that matter to you? Unless you complete your task, your future will remain the same... forever.
• Drown in darkness!
• Sink into darkness!
• Looking for me?
• I'm your shadow... You can't even touch me...
• Why fight at all? Why risk your life for those who will persecute you later?
• The 'I' of now absorbed your power through your shadow in the past. What may have worked ten years ago no longer does!
• [After making hundreds of clones of him] You must realize by now that you can not hope to stop me with your 'limited' power!
• I'll make sure you regret this, Shadow the Hedgehog!
• Such foolishness. Very well! Let's see if you can entertain me!

• Perfect Mission. (When achieving an "S" rank)
• Good Performance. (When achieving an "A" rank)
• Now is the designated time!
• I shall assist.
• Shadow. Rouge asked me to support you.
• What is Eggman up to? Who is Mephiles?
• Shadow, the one who defeats and seals you in the future... (points to himself) is me.
• Eventually when something or someone is seen as too powerful... it is seen as a threat. (reaches out "hand" to gesture at Shadow, who has turned away, unnerved) And then the world becomes its enemy.
• Our targets are the Chaos Emeralds. Begin searching immediately.
• (After dying) "System Error..."

• Don't you want to know what this is?
• It's... It's so unfair! Shadow's always here to defend the world. Despite that...
• Shadow...? Even if you believe everyone in the world will be against you... know that I'll always remain by your side. Remember that.
• Well, now... I may not look it, but I'm a real treasure hunter. Unlike a certain echidna I know.
• My precious Chaos Emerald. You are all so beautiful. Your mysterious brilliance...
• I've found a Chaos Emerald!
• Hmph. He finally shows up again and then he leaves before even saying, "Hello." Well, it seems his little trip hasn't changed him.
• What did you think of my beautiful technique? (after getting an 'S' rank)
• For me, it's a piece of cake. (after getting an 'A' rank)
• That was pretty good, I guess. (after getting an 'B' rank)
• I guess I took a bit too long. (after getting an 'C' rank)
• How can I call myself a treasure hunter? (after getting an 'D' rank)
• So, Shadow, what do you think?

• Hmph. Perfect. (When achieving an "S" Rank)
• Hmph. Not even a challenge. (When achieving an "A" Rank)
• I determine my own destiny.
• Don't try to deceive me. [Mephiles: What?] You have no desire for revenge. You only crave destruction. Your only lust is to fuel Iblis until there is nothing left of time itself.
• That's absurd. Whatever it is you want to do, you can do it alone.
• Follow me if you want the truth.
• (while fighting Solaris) A super-dimensional being? Heh, this might even be a fair fight!
• Guess that was alright. ("B" rank)
• Need to stay focused.. ("C" rank)
• I will release you from the chains of your past.
• Time to unleash the ultimate power!
• Rouge! You saved me.
• This is the distant future, far removed from our own timeline.
• (how to return) You need a space-time rift, but this requires a lot of energy.(After Sonic answers)Yes, but that alone is insufficient!
• (to Eggman) Who is Mephiles? And why are you trying to capture him?
• (After fighting Mephiles) So you say, if the world chooses to become my enemy, I will fight like I always have!
• I am Shadow. Shadow The Hedgehog.
• To discover what happened, it seems we must see what took place 10 years ago. Follow me if you want the truth. (Jumps into the portal)
• LET'S GET MOVING!
• Heh... There's no strength in numbers!
• I found the means to seal Mephiles.
• The rift is getting bigger. There's no time left!
• (sets Scepter of Darkness aside Elise) I already know what becomes of it in the future...
• (about Sonic) Certainly, it might've been possible... if he was still alive.
• The time-space rift is expanding! There's no time left... I've got to hurry!
• (After learning about the doctor's train) Shoot, I've gotta get to the station!
• Maybe I wasn't strong enough... (When achieving a "D" rank)
• Who are you? And how do you know my name? (After Mephiles knows Shadow's name)
• (After falling off a pitfall) NOOOOOOO!
• Don't touch it!
• Mephiles, I won't let you escape!

• YAY!!! I ROCK!!! (When achieving an "B" Rank)
• Aren't I just incredible?! (When achieving an "A" Rank)
• I gotta do better than this. (When achieving an "D" Rank)
• 2 heads are better than one when looking for someone!
• [to Silver] The person you were looking for was Sonic?! Were you planning to kill him?
• If I had to choose between the world and Sonic, I would choose Sonic!
• Ho... that was close. [After achieving an "C" rank]
• Hmm... I sense Sonic's presence there. Call it my girlish intuition.
• HEY! You're not Sonic! [Slaps Silver, who almost falls off the roof, but Amy ignores it, and buries her face in her hands] Um... I'm sorry!
• Just perfect! [After achieving an "S" rank]
• Sonic! You came!
• Absolutely NOT!

• You're so naive. Whether it's right or wrong, I can't really say… but what I do know is... if we don't take this chance, the future will remain exactly as it is.
• (After Silver is rejected as the vessel for Iblis) I'll take Iblis. Don't worry. My soul is already alit with flames. I will be accepted.
• The Iblis Trigger... Blue Hedgehog...
• That's a Chaos Emerald. It's said this gem can transform your thoughts into power. Collect seven, and a miracle's supposed to happen. Keep it as a lucky charm.
• You're still so naive. But... I... I've always liked that about you.
• Can't complain. (after getting an 'S' rank)
• Good luck, Silver. (as she drifts away)
• The Iblis trigger...blue hedgehog...Can it be true? i need to find Silver fast! (in her Wave Ocean level)
• Darn! Why now? (when the whale is chasing her in Wave Ocean)
• Ooch! (when she gets hurt)
• It's useless... (when defeated)
• Can't complain. (When achieving an "S" rank)
• All it takes is a little effort. (When achieving an "A" rank)
• That was so-so. (When achieving an "B" rank)
• I should have done better. (When achieving an "C" rank)
• That was weak. (When achieving an "D" rank)

• (narrating the Intro of his Story) This world was devastated before I was born. A harsh bleak place, where we live in eternal darkness. Life is a struggle, and people live without hope. How did this happen? No one will answer me directly. But they always point... to the flames. (a fiery tornado rises appears before Silver, who extinguishes it with his Psychokinesis) These flames. They burn away at my world, destroying every thing in their path. They come from a eternal life form that we cannot truly defeat. The Flames of Disaster known as Iblis.
• I've finally found him... the Iblis Trigger!
• PERFECT!! (When getting an "S" Rank)
• Looks like I'm on a roll! (When getting an "A" Rank)
• Don't you dare turn your back on me!
• It's time I finally put an end to this!
• Your actions will condemn us all!
• For the future of the world, I will destroy you!
• I will change the past, and save the world!
• I'm coming Kitty cat!
• Shadow! I'll be looking out for your 'truth'.
• A guard, huh? Just try and stop me! (When battling Egg Genesis)
• This is the end! Prepare to meet your doom!
• I will protect the future!
• Now I must fight for the future.
• My name is Silver.
• Time for you to disappear, Iblis Trigger!
• Don't get in my way!
• I won't give up! It all depends on me! Can't lose! Not when I'm so close! CHAOS CONTROL!
• The root of all our problems... I will defeat you, My lord!
• Is this a joke? How could someone like you cause the destruction of our world?
• It doesn't matter. For the sake of the future, the Iblis Trigger must be destroyed!
• Mephiles! Why are you getting in my way?
• I see it! So... that blue hedgehog's the Iblis Trigger?
• What's the point of all this? It'll never end!
• (to Mephiles) Who is the Iblis Trigger? Why does he want to destroy the world?
• (to Blaze) I can't! I wouldn't know what to do... without you! You've fought alongside me to save the world... You're my friend... Right?
• Circumstances have changed. I need to rescue the Princess!
• So THAT'S why he wanted me to kill Sonic before!
• You were the vessel that was used to seal Iblis. You should be able to use the gems' power to rescue Sonic's soul!
• Blaze? To kill someone to save the world... Is that really the right thing to do?
• Since he's after Dr. Eggman, let's sneak into Eggman's base!
• If you say it exists in the past, present and future, I'll destroy them all at once!
• Amy? Get out of my way Amy, this is my mission!
• I've been looking for you, You're the Iblis trigger!
• (When dying) Not... now.
• (To Shadow when fighting Solaris) You're low on ring energy, use the triangle/Y button to switch with me!
• IT'S NO USE!!!
• (Take too long to clear a stage and get a "D" Rank) I need to pull it together...
• That took too long! (When getting an "C" Rank)
• No! I can't do that to you!

• Who was that guy? He looked just like Shadow!
• I saw Eggman on the outskirts of the city. He wanted me to give this to you. (tosses Sonic a holographic message)
• No matter where we go, all we see are ruins. How can this be our future?
• I'll take care of it!
• Alright! (when receiving an "S" rank)
• That felt good. (when receiving an "A" rank)
• Well, that wasn't...too bad. (get a "B" rank)
• Hmph. That took longer than I thought. (get a "C" rank)
• Shoot! I still got a ways to go... (get a "D" rank)

• I heard you tried to rescue their princess from Dr. Eggman.
• A Chaos Emerald! You've already found one!
• (landing in isolated base in the future) Boy, do I feel dizzy... Where are we?
• This is terrible! According to the data, the princess died when she was kidnapped by Eggman! Apparently Eggman's battleship exploded! The data of this incident was... two days after the Festival of the Sun!
• WHOA! My head's spinning!
• GREAT! I did it, Sonic! (when getting an "S" rank)
• An "A" effort! (get an "A" rank)
• Well, not bad! (get an "B" rank)
• Elise is on that battleship? Wait up, we're coming!

• That was incredible! (When getting an 'S' rank)
• Too easy! No sweat! (When getting an 'A' rank)
• My... That's a pretty snazzy performance there.
• The whole city's on fire!
• That tornado's carrying a car!
• Doesn't look like you're here to talk.
• Here I come! Gotcha!
• Piece of cake! No sweat!
• Darn! We're not gonna make it. Let's speed up!
• This is your pet, huh? Okay, Eggman. I'll play with him! (When Battling Egg Cerberus)
• If I find the one issuing orders and defeat him, I can defeat everyone at once.
• If you have time to worry, then run!
• Nothing starts until you take action.
• You think you can intimidate me with your size? Let's see what you can do! (When Battling Egg Genesis)
• Silver! I can handle this myself. Besides, you have somewhere to go, right?
• I'll make sure to change Elise's fate. And that in turn should change your future, too.
• Since Eggman went to the trouble of telling me where Elise is, I think I should thank him personally.
• (resurrected as Super Sonic) Thank you, Elise.
• Alright, it's my turn. Let's have some fun, Overlord!
• Smile.
• WHHHHHHOOOOOOOAAAAA! (Falling into an abyss)
• This is it, Eggman! Prepare for another defeat!
• The present day...the here and now you've stolen, time to take it back!
• Cool! It's raining fire!
• I'm Sonic... Sonic The Hedgehog!
• (Take too long in finishing a stage or get a 'D' rank) Man! Today's not my day!

• (Transmission) Bzzz... Zzzzz... Zzzzzzz... C-Can you hear me, Shadow? There's someone after me! He's... Ah, it's all so confusing! I'm not sure how to explain this! Anyway, follow this signal, and come find me! I'm counting on you, Shadow! ... Bzzzzz... Zzzz Zzp...
• That's right! I'm the real Dr. Eggman! Back in the flesh, thanks to you, Shadow! So it looks like we have a common enemy. Want to come along?

• Come forth, Metal Sonic! Show this pathetic hedgehog what you're capable of! Now, Sonic, let's see if you really are the fastest thing in the world, shall we? Hoh ho ho ho!
• Unforgivable! You've just made me very, very angry! (Takes out camera) Fine then! I'll use this camera to turn the whole planet into a card!
• (Sighs) Bunch of annoying pests... It may be too much for your puny little brain to grasp, but this is Onyx Island, or Angel Island from the future!
• Heh heh heh...It seems it's time we stop playing such a childish game any longer... You are quite right... I am not Eggman! My name is Eggman Nega!
• Heh heh heh... I'm here to change my destiny! I come from a long line of brilliant, scientists, but that lineage was disrupted with Dr.Eggman's failures! As a result, I have been denied my destiny as the world has refused to recognize my brilliance! So by removing Dr.Eggman's life and failed attempts at success, I will alter our family history forever!

• Wait! Come back here! No hard feelings, Sonic, but this time there's no way you're gonna beat me!
• Hey, Shadow! Mind your own business! Yo, Eggman! You'd better hand over the Master Emerald this time!
• Grr... You better shut your mouth! I'm not letting you make a fool of me again! Let's go, Sonic!
• Hey, Eggman! How did you make the Master Emerald disappear from Angel Island?
• Come to think of it, the shape of this island is similar to Angel Island... But the real Angel Island is still there, right? So this one's got to be a fake... Argh! I just don't get it!

• Sonic, Knuckles, get in! We can still catch up to him in my new Tornado plane!
• We have to hurry before he converts Amy's card into energy!

• (Transmission) Bzzz... Zzzzz... Zzzzz... This is Rouge! Can you hear me, Shadow? I've come across something quite interesting about the doctor! I'll fill you in on the details later. Just keep tailing him for now! ... Bzzz... Bzzzzzzp...
• (Transmission) Bzzz... Zzzzz... Bzzzzz... Shadow! Come in! You'll never guess what I found out! Eggman is really... Aaaaah!
• Thanks for saving me, Shadow! That was a bit too close for comfort. What were you thinking!?

• Huh? What's this... A silver hedgehog? And... He's chasing... the doctor!? Hey you! What do you want with the doctor!?
• My name is Shadow... And I won't let you harm the doctor!
• Hmph! There's no way I'm losing to some android fake. I accept your challenge!
• Whatever! Now, why don't I show that fake why they call me the Ultimate life form!
• What!? Change the future? Is that what you've been trying to do? Hmm... I won't let you get away with that!
• Hmph... There's no way I'd lose to someone like him who blames their own failures on the past.

• My name is Silver... I can't tell you why, but I need to get to him before you.
• You... You're Shadow! Listen, you don't understand what's going on. Please, take this as a warning. The man that you refer to as 'Doctor'...There's a chance that he's not the real Eggman.
• It looks like you've realized who the true enemy is, Shadow.
• Eggman?! This ends now! I'm going to expose you for who you really are, no matter what it takes!
• All right, Eggman Nega! You're coming back to the future with me! You've been here far too long!
• Eggman Nega... It looks like he lost control of his machine, and got turned into a card himself... As soon as I can collect the other cards, and take care of Eggman Nega's mess, I'll head back to the future... This time frame will be fine, as long as they're around... Those blue and black hedgehogs certainly are brave...

• Are you running away again, Eggman!? Get back here and fight!
• Heh! While you've been wasting your time, I've been figuring his next move...
• Okay, Eggman! I've proven that I'm the fastest and the strongest! So hand over Tails' card now!
• A copy is still just a copy! It'll never be able to top the original!
• That's Amy's card! I totally forgot about her!

Knuckles: I thought I had him, but then he disappeared into the light!?

Shadow: You let the doctor get away? Hmph! You're useless...

Knuckles: What'd you say!? What's your problem, Shadow!? Don't mess with me, I'm not in the mood! I might take it out on you, got it?

Shadow: Whatever, Knuckles... But first, I've got some business with the doctor!

Knuckles: All righty then... Let's see who can catch him first!

Shadow: You're on! Let's do it!

---

Shadow: So, was this who you were warning me about in your transmission?

Eggman Nega: Transmission? What are you talking about?

Shadow: What!? 6 hours ago, you asked for my help.

Eggman Nega: Why would I ask you for your help?

Shadow: What? Why are you...

Silver: Hey, wait a second. I think you may be mistaken about something...

Eggman Nega: Grr! Stop this nonsense... It's driving me crazy!

---

Silver: Hey, you there! Did you see that guy carrying something strange?

Knuckles: Actually... He has this weird camera that changes things into cards... Wait a minute... Who are you?

Silver: What'd you say!? How did he get a hold of it?

Knuckles: You...! What are you mumbling about?

Silver: Got no time to explain it to someone like you... See ya!

Knuckles: "Someone like me?" Hey, I'm Knuckles! Haven't you heard of me? How rude! Asking questions without having the gall to introduce himself!

Silver: Like I said before, I don't have time to deal with you right now. See ya!

Knuckles: You little... Get back here!

• (after being selected in Party Mode) Okay, Here I come!

• (after being selected in Party Mode) All right, let's do it!
• (Party Mode victory quote 1) What do you think about that?
• (Party Mode victory quote 2) Is that all you got?
• (Party Mode victory quote 3) This is what ya get!

• (after being selected in Party Mode) Okay!
• (Party Mode victory quote 1) I did it!

• What is the meaning of this? I am Shahryar, king of this land!

• I am Erazor Djinn. I am the one who should be carving up this world as I see fit.
• Have you gathered the 7 rings yet?
• It's that filthy rat again.
• Have you brought me the 7 World Rings?
• You brought me all 7 World Rings, well done!
• All you filthy vermin are worthless, just the same.
• So, this is how judgment is dealt, is it?
• Hmph! Filthy rat! I'll shut that mouth of yours permanently!
• (after having absorbed the World Rings' power) I am Alf Layla-wa Layla!! I am the Arabian Nights! I will be it's new creator! I will remake this world and this reality in my own image!
• (Breathing heavily) I shall not be defeated. If you defeat me, I will simply return again and again! I am immortal! I cannot be vanquished! (laughs diabolically until Sonic shows Erazor's lamp) That can't be?! That's the... (in the Japanese version: Grrrgh, this is not over yet. I will revive, no matter how many times. I cannot die here, for I am an immortal life form. (laughs diabolically until Sonic shows Erazor's lamp) What?! That's the...)
• (Response to Sonic say that the Erazor, as the genie of the lamp, must grant three wishes) I will never grant any wish to the likes of you!
• My body, my body is... UHAAAAAAA!
• Shahra, I know you there, please, stop him, we can start over, the two of us. I swear, I swear it! The world is mine! I cannot be denied by that filthy rat! Whyyyyyyyy?!
• I am.... the creator! The stories of this world... are MIIIIIIINE!!!
• IT WOULD TAKE A MIRACLE FOR YOU TO AVOID MY ATTACKS!!!

• Life's a game of give and take, see?

• ..."Tails...??" My...my name is Ali-Baba.
• (after being selected in Party Mode) Here I go!

• (after being selected in Party Mode) Here I come!

• (Party Mode victory quote 2) Pathetic...
• (Party Mode victory quote 3) As I suspected!

• You are the blue hedgehog.
• Our world, the world of the Arabian Nights is vanishing.
• When darkness descends upon the Arabian Nights, the legendary blue hedgehog from another world shall come.
• When the 7 rings that control the worlds are gathered, the portal between the worlds shall open, but the life of the collector of the rings shall be offered up in sacrifice as the key for that control.
• Did I change my destiny, did I keep my promise?

• (after being selected in Party Mode) Here I come!
• (Party Mode victory quote 1) That was easy!
• (Party Mode victory quote 2) Perfect!
• (Party Mode victory quote 3) I did it!

• Boy, is it that late already? What time is it?
• How about a handkerchief for starters! Make that a few!
• You see, I caught this cold yesterday and...
• Quit it, will you? My name is Sonic. Sonic the Hedgehog.
• What's that all about, talk about close shaves...
• What's Dr. Eggman doing here?
• Wisdom? Knuckles?
• (sarcastically) Wow, the wisdom of Sinbad of the 7 Seas, adventurer of adventurers...
• I promise you, you'll smile once our adventure is done.
• Whoa! Out of the frying pan and into the fire, huh? (After the encounter with the dinosaur in Dinosaur Jungle)
• (after getting one of the World Rings) I can't even begin to imagine what getting all seven rings would do to somebody. It might even open the gates of hell!

• We got to stop him. Shahra, please! Lend me your... POWER!! (after transforming into Darkspine Sonic)
• (After defeating Erazor) Your tale's finished, Erazor! Next time, try writing a better story!

• If you say so.

• (after Erazor Djinn is sealed) Shahra.. Will you grant me one more wish?
• I wish for a mountain of handkerchiefs.. Now, just let yourself cry as much as you need to. You'll have plenty of handkerchiefs to help you through it.

Sonic: (after Shahra comes out the book) Ahh... what the...?

Shahra: Do not be alarmed! I am Shahra, the Genie of the Ring. You know, like "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp"?

Sonic: Don't think I've read that.

Shahra: What? You've got to be kidding me!

(after Sonic saves King Shahryar)

King Shahryar: How dare you! I am the king! Must you be so rude?

Sonic: (Sarcastically) Sorry!

---

(After defeating Erazor the first time)

Sonic: You just don't give up, do you?

Erazor: You brought me all seven World Rings. Well done!

Sonic: Yeah, of course! We're such good buddies, after all!

Jet: It's been a while... Sonic the Hedgehog.

Sonic: JET!?!

(Wave and Storm arrive behind Jet)

Wave: Long time no see, shorty.

Tails: Wave!

Storm: We're here to settle the score from last time!

Knuckles: Anytime, Babylon Rogues!

Jet: Cut it out, Storm! Alright, girly, hand over the Arks of the Cosmos!

Amy: What are you talking about!?

Jet: Don't play dumb! Not after swiping the Arks of the Cosmos right out of our hands!

Sonic: Hey, hold up a minute! Girls hate guys who rush them, Jet.

Jet: Rush?! Heh! I'm the fastest thing in the universe! And today I'm going to prove it!

(Sirens start to go off as robot begin to attack the group)

Tails: Sonic, we can't stay here!

---

(Sonic, Tails and Knuckles arrive at Botanical Kingdom)

Sonic: They don't give a guy a break, huh?

Knuckles: We can't just stand around here.

Sonic: Right. (Amy grabs Sonic from behind) WHOA!

Amy: Guess who!

Sonic: Amy... What are you doing here?!

Amy: Fated lovers are drawn together, silly. (winks at Sonic)

Sonic: Amy...

---

Wave: A shooting star. (starts to makes a wish)

Storm: Hey, whatcha doing, Wave?

Wave: Making a wish! (sighs) They say if you make a wish on a shooting star it will come true.

Storm: (Laughs) How old are you? Grow up! Right, boss? (turns to see Jet making a wish) Uh-oh!

Jet: (Thinking) All right, Star, give me the power to beat HIM!

---

Storm: W-Wait up! [breathes heavily still chasing Amy]

Amy: Ugh...! Do you ever give up?!? [she and Storm stop running] Fine, if you want it that bad… I'll GIVE it to you! [throws the Ark at Storm's face causing him to fall] Where the heck am I?

(Storm awakes to see an angry Amy)

Amy: THANKS TO YOU, I GOT LEFT BEHIND BY SONIC, YOU BIG JERK!

Storm: Um... Uh...

Amy: (helps Storm up) So, you're going to find the way out! Am I clear?!

Storm: C-crystal clear, ma'am, sir!

---

(in the story's ending, we see Team Sonic in their hovercar at Monopole)

Amy: Hmm... I wonder what those meteors really were...

Tails: They had some programming that made them try to gather up the other units.

Amy: Yeah?

Tails: It activated when Eggman found the first piece and put it in the mother computer. All the robots went berserk because they were all connected to the network. At least, I think that's what happened.

Sonic: But who made that program?

Tails: I have no idea. Maybe those ancient Babylonians... Or maybe someone even more ancient... Maybe it was a warning, for people to stay away from power beyond control.

Knuckles: But the people of Babylon...

Amy: I can't believe they were the descendants of aliens...

(The scene shifts to a circular explosion in space. Astral Babylon emerges from the hole and heads towards earth.)

Tails: They crash landed on this planet in ancient past... (The Arks of the Cosmos are rejected from Astral Babylon) They disconnected the unit...

Amy: And left it in orbit, hoping that some day, it would fall back down to the surface.

(Astral Babylon is shown in the night sky. A shooting star passes)

Amy: Every time they saw a shooting star...

(The scene shifts to the present. Sonic points to sky.)

Sonic: I bet they'd wished they could get back to their home planet.

(Something is chasing the team's car)

Amy: Maybe that's why people started wishing on shooting stars.

(The pursuer is revealed to be Jet)

Jet: Sonic!

Sonic: Hm?

(Sonic looks behind and sees Jet is chasing them. Jet comes near the car and looks at Sonic as he passing. Sonic smiles and gets on his Extreme Gear and starts racing Jet through the road tube and among the cars. After a few seconds, Jet passes by a section in the tube in slow-motion, with Sonic right behind him, also in slow-motion.)

• Yeah, this is the real me. Pretty cool huh? (Strikes a pose)
• Well, this is new. Showing remorse, Eggman? If you played nice, I wouldn't have to break all your toys.
• (After defeating the Egg Beetle) Same as ever. All bark, and no bite!
• I'll never understand Eggman's tastes.
• (After completing a mission, or getting an "A" rank) No problem! / Yes! / COOL!
• (After getting a "D" rank) Not my best run... / Oh.. I've gotta try that again! / Well, That was lame...
• (After getting an "E" rank) No!
• (After getting a "S" rank) Beautiful! / Piece of Cake! / Sweet!
• (When he transforms into Super Sonic) LET'S DO IT!
• A planet-sized jigsaw puzzle? Sounds like a great excuse to see the world.
• Heeeeeere's SONIC!!! (During Final Boss battle against Perfect Dark Gaia [360/PS3 version])
• Hey! What about your memories?
• Roger that buddy!
• Wooo! Feelin' good!
• Oh, well.

• Uh-oh, did I fall on him?
• (Upon defeating the Dark Moray) Sorry, I'm in a rush here!
• Hey, don't worry, I'll help you get your memory back.
• Looks like things have gotten pretty ugly.
• What, you've forgot who you are!?
• You've really... gone and done it this time, Eggman.
• (After completing a mission, or getting an "A") AROOOOOOO!!!
• (After getting a "S") Oh, YEAH! That's right, baby!
• (After getting a "B") Wow, I rule!
• (After getting a "D") Ugh, can I start over?
• (Upon defeating the Dark Gaia Phoenix) Strike 3, monster! That's enough out of you!
• (After defeating the Dark Guardian) I know little girls who are better with a hammer than you. Well, one... anyway.
• (After getting an "E") Darn!
• You know me. Never a dull moment.
• What the heck is going on?
• (To Chip) Do I need a reason to want to help out a friend?

• Chip...Chip! I love it. Yum!
• Seven lights of the earth, rekindled! Awaken and gather here to me!!
• (as Sonic the Werehog walks away, dejected) Oh, ah...I mean...D-d-don't worry! Hey! You only look really scary, Sonic. Inside, you're the same as ever. I guarantee it! Okay?
• Sonic, I remember now...all of it. ( said when he regained his memories after restoring the sixth countinet.)
• Thanks for asking, Mister Monster Guy.
• (takes out a chocolate bar) Want some chocolate?
• Don't eat me, I taste bad!
• Sonic, you must live.
• I'll never forget you. I'll be here by you, always. A part of the earth you tread.
• (as the purified Temple Guardian flies away) So long!
• (When realizing Prof. Pickles was kidnaped with concern that the Prof. might be hungry) What a horrible thing to do! We've gotta rescue that professor guy and fast! If he was kidnapped that long ago, he's gotta be real hungry by now. An- And if I was that hungry, I don't know how long I would last! I'd rather be dead! (Turns into a ghost for comic relief. After a while, he realises, and tries to recover his body)
• Want some CHOCOLATE!?

• We're doomed, the planet is lost!
• How dare they call this culinary concoction food. Look here, do you see this sorry excuse for a sandwich? The bread should be no less than 3/4 of an inch thick. Upon it, one tablespoon of mayonnaise and a pinch of black pepper. The contents, FRESH cucumbers, sliced THINLY if you please! Am I quite right, Tails?

• Success, a brilliant Success!
• I'll turn over a new leaf, I swear! Just give me a chance!
• Sonic, that's a good look for you. Festive!
• I should have known you'd still be alive, you stubborn little hedgehog!
• Looks like you're a bit too late, Sonic!
• How could I lose?!
• Why meeeeeee?!
• You little! You little!
• Rah! Out of my SIGHT!!
• Stubborn little pincushion, give up and die already!
• Are you fast enough to dodge THIS?
• Checkmate, Sonic! I hope you've said your goodbyes!
• (When he loses control of the Egg Dragoon for the 1st time) N-No! The controls won't respond!
• (when he loses control of the Egg Dragoon of the 2nd time) NRGGH! Lost control AGAIN?! Don't fall apart on me now!
• OH, SHUT UP!!
• HAHAHAHA! You unsuspecting little hedgehog. My Egg Beetle's claws will tear you to shreds!

• Just now, was that... Sonic?!
• That is so strange. I could've SWORN it was him.
• There's no way Sonic will let it end like this!
• (as she's being twirled around) HEY! What's the big idea?!

• Sonic... Is that really you? That's a new look. What happened?
• That's some story. I'll bet that means you turning into... that, and the planet breaking apart are somehow related.
• What? Professor Pickle's been kidnapped?

Dr. Eggman: S-Sonic, I-I'm sorry! R-Really! L-Look, go easy on me! I'll turn over a new leaf, I swear! Just give me a chance!

Super Sonic: Well, this is new. Showing remorse, Eggman? If you played nice, I wouldn't have to break all your toys.

Eggman: Gotcha!

---

Professor Pickle: These ancient documents are known as the Gaia Manuscripts. They tell the legend of a disaster that befell our planet some tens of thousands of years ago.

Tails: A disaster..?

Prof. Pickle: Quite, and according to the Gaia Manuscripts, this isn't the first time the planet has been broken apart into pieces.

[Sonic and Tails gasp]

Prof. Pickle: The cause lies at the the very core of the planet. All the phenomena we've witnessed are the direct result of one creature: the hyper-energy organism spawned at the planet's core, Dark Gaia.

Tails: So how do we stop this Dark Gaia and put the world back together?

Prof. Pickle: Luckily, Dark Gaia has yet to be fully reborn. We most likely have Dr. Eggman's pre-mature wake-up call to thank for that. If we act now, we may be able to restore the planet by returning power to the Chaos Emeralds. Sonic, you must travel to each of the temples listed in the Gaia Manuscripts. The planet's power will restore the Chaos Emeralds, and in turn the Chaos Emeralds will restore the planet and help it heal naturally.

---

Orbot: Your dinner, Doctor.

Eggman: Thank you. [takes the sandwich] What's the progress on the Dark Gaia-powered Eggman Land construction system?

Orbot: Current status is... 27% complete. Progress is significantly behind projected timetable. Persumed cause of delay... is Dark Gaia dispersion across the globe.

Eggman: Oh, of all the lazy... Here I go to the trouble of waking that Dark Gaia thing up, and it causes me nothing but delays!

Orbot: Dark Gaia had yet to reach maturity within the planet's core. Ergo, it was still incomplete at the time of its awakening. Ergo, it was unable to sustain its own weight upon its release. Ergo, it scattered around the world.

Eggman: I don't want to hear about its weight issues. So what if I gave it a bit of a sudden awakening? This is unacceptable!

Orbot: Ergo, this is a repercussion of your hasty actions...

Eggman: What was that?! [growls] I'm having a bad enough day as it is. First, that professor runs off with the Gaia Manuscripts, and now the planet's coming back together!

Orbot: That, Doctor, is the results of the power of the Chaos Emeralds, which you discarded along with Sonic. Ergo, another repercussion of your hasty actions.

Eggman: Q-quiet, you junk heap! That was, uh… all part of my plan! Part of the big picture! Where's the fun in having my plans succeed without any challenge…? [clears his throat] A-anyway, what's the status of the remaining Temples of Gaia?

Orbot: Eggman forces have currently secured all locations. Defensive preparations are nearly complete.

Eggman: That'll take care of Sonic for now, which leaves the problem of Dark Gaia. It'd be difficult to collect every piece scattered all across the world.

Orbot: Searching conventional wisdom banks for topical advice. "The journey of 1,000 miles begins with a single step. Slow and steady wins the race. Nobody likes a whiner."

Eggman: Hhmm... isn't there a more efficient way? Some way to, I don't know... gather them all up at once? Wait, that's it! Of course! [giggles] With this... this, all of my plans will realized!

---

Orbot: All systems are green. Dark Gaia activation is confirmed on all seven continents. Electromagnetic homing signals are locked on. All units converging on .0.

Eggman: Yes, yes, perfect! Gathering Dark Gaia's pieces is such a pain. I'll have them come to me instead! A brilliant shift in perspective! An idea worthy of Dr. Eggman, super-genius! Oh ho ho ho!

Orbot: [clapping his hands] Your skill at self-aggrandizement is unparalleled.

Eggman: Hohohohoho! [slapping Orbot] Silence! Activate the Dark Gaia fusion furnace, and while you're at it, get those energy conversion circuits warmed up!

Robot: Understood. Commencing "Project Dark Gaia". Requesting final clearance.

Eggman: Granted. Finally, my ambitions will be achieved! Gaah ha ha! Oh ho hoho!

---

(If you say "That could be fun" to Amy)

Amy: This next one's the last temple. Right, Sonic? You can do it. I believe in you, and when you're done, the world will be at peace and we can finally go out!

Sonic: That could be fun.

Amy: You... you mean it?! YAAAY!!! It's a promise! Now, go! Hurry up, man! Go save the world already, geez!

---

(If you say "I'll pass, thanks" to Amy)

Amy: This next one's the last temple. Right, Sonic? You can do it. I believe in you! And when you're done, the world will be at peace and we can finally go out!

Sonic: I'll pass, thanks.

Amy: Aww, come on, man! Gave a gal a little hope here, Sonic!

---

(Upon entering Eggmanland for the first time)

Eggman: [over P.A.] Welcome to Eggmanland, the brainchild of my heart and soul! [a statue of Eggman rises from the ground] This is my magnificent empire, made possible through my genius and the limitless energy harnessed from Dark Gaia!

Chip: Wha-WHOA. This place is CRAZY!

Sonic: I'll never understand Eggman's tastes.

Chip: [takes out the camera and snaps a photo of the statue] Get a good shot! [gives the camera to Sonic, who takes a photo of Chip posing in front of the statue as the following is spoken]

Eggman: Ahh ha ha ha ha haaa! Surprised? Yes, of course, you are! Sonic, if you have any complaints, come deliver them to me in person. If you can, that is! Ahh ha ha ha haa... ha-HACK! Hwaugh, koff! Whew...

Sonic: (shakes his head) He's enjoying this way too much.

Chip: Sonic! (stands on top of the statue, snapping another photo) I can feel the last temple nearby! He must have built this place on top of it.

Sonic: Well, I guess we'll just have to tear it down!

Sonic: Merlina… every world has its end. I know that's kinda sad, but... [picks a flower from the ground] ...That's why we've got to live life to its fullest in the time we have. At least, that's what I figure.

(Merlina accepts the flower)

Merlina: Grandfather...

(Caliburn, Nimue, Percival, Gawain, and Lancelot approach them)

Percival: Well done, Sir Sonic.

Sonic: Thanks to you guys.

Caliburn: You can say that again.

Gawain: To think...King Arthur was but an illusion.

Lancelot: The Knights of the Round Table must now disband.

Caliburn: What foolishness is this?

Nimue: I'll say.

Percival: Hmm? What are you saying, then?

Caliburn: Have you forgotten who I am? I am the sacred sword Caliburn. I am the one who decides who is worthy of the crown.

(Lancelot, Gawain and Percival stare at Sonic in shock. Nimue smiles at Sonic)

Lancelot: So then...

Gawain: You...?

Lancelot, Gawain and Percival: You are the one and true King Arthur!?

Sonic: Who, me? [the trio bow down to him] Hey, cut that out!

---

(after credits)

Sonic: So yeah, that's what happened. To think I was called in to be part of the tale of King Arthur… but I gotta tell ya, it was no picnic.

Amy: Aren't you forgetting something?

Sonic: What? All the action, all the excitement down to the wire?

Amy: Hmph!

Sonic: Oh, man! Who'd thought I was the real King Arthur? Heh.

Amy: That's the lamest excuse ever! You just forgot about our date!

Sonic: No, no! It's true, I tell ya! Yikes! No, Amy, wait! Put down that hammer!

Amy: Wow! Sonic's here, too!? What a coincidence! No, this must be fate!

Vector: Argh! You're a terrible actress, Amy! We all know you followed him here!

Amy: I don't recall asking you! Now SHUSH, would you!?

---

Amy: Yeesh, Sonic! Would it have killed you to go a little easy out there!?

Sonic: Hey! This is a serious competition, Amy!

Amy: Chivalry is serious business, too! I'M A LADY!

Sonic: Hey, Tails, Knuckles! Back me up on this, would ya'!?

---

Amy: Ooh! It's all your fault we lost, Sonic! You better make it up to me by taking me out tonight! [sing-song]: You owe me...

Sonic: Wait, why do I owe you a date for winning a race!?!?

---

Shadow: Don't blame your own poor performance... on my team mate.

Knuckles: What'd you say!?!!

Omochao: Now, now! Let's all stay calm here! There's no need for fighting, folks!

Knuckles: I know what I saw! He was making these weird clicking sounds and moving around all funny-like!

---

Storm: It's time we finally settled this food! Uh... I mean... "feud"? Yeah. That.

Wave: WOW! Tripped over a monosyllabic word, Storm! [sarcastically] Good for you.

Omochao: Sparks are flying from both Team Heroes and Team Babylon and the race hasn't even begun yet! I'm eager to see how this epic food plays out! ...I-I mean feud. Man, now he's got ME doing it...

---

Omochao: But there's only 2 of you! Where's your third team mate?

Rouge: Don't worry about us. The 2 of us can handle this just fine.

Omochao: That's not the point! The rules say that teams all have to have 3 members otherwise they're disqualified!

---

E-10000B: Well, folks! It's an amazing victory for Team Dark, which is no surprise to anyone with a brain!

Omochao: Hey! I'm the fast-talking commentator here!

---

Tails: Is he alright? He's not gonna' break down, is he?

Rouge: If he does, he's getting canned.

Tails: Wha-!!!? But that's horrible! He's your team mate, isn't he!?

Knuckles: These two AREN'T the type to understand "team loyalty", Tails.

---

Amy: Awww! Sonic! You let me win! You are such a gentleman!

Sonic: Are you crazy? I gave that race all I had!

---

Jet: What's with the temper-tantrum? Is this KINDERGARTEN!?

Vector: Hey! Just because I got kids on my team, doesn't mean I'm gonna' take that from you!

Wave: Jet would be looking at YOU if he said that, Croc.

Storm: The biggest kid in kindergarten!

Amy: OK, that's enough! I'll have you know our team only has ONE useless kid on it!

Vector: What!? Me!?!?

---

[Team Babylon lost race against Team Rose]

Jet: What the heck is happening!?

Wave: It's bad luck... It HAS to be bad luck!

Storm: That... or maybe they had good luck!

Wave: Same difference!

---

Shadow: Heh. You'd think they'd already won.

Rouge: Oh, let them have their fun. It's the least we can do before sending them home empty-handed.

Vector: Who's going home empty-handed!??

Omochao: The final round has come down to the Grand Prix's loudest team and it's quietest team! Things are really heating up! This is finally it! The BIG FINALE! ...Wow, maybe I'm the loudest one here.

---

Jet: It's Shadow, right? And Rouge? You guys are pretty good!

Rouge: Spare me. One fluke win and you're talking down to us now? Please.

Wave: And just who do you think YOU are talking to Jet like that!?

Storm: [to E-10000B] You were pretty tough out there, too! [no response] Hey, I'm being nice here! Least you could do is say something!

Wave: Why are you getting mad at a machine?

E-10000B: I'm no machine! I'm A ROBOT! It's different!

---

Vector: I'm getting serious on the next race!

Amy: What!!?? Why haven't you been serious this entire time!!?

Cream: No wonder we couldn't win!

Vector: Huh? It's a figure of speech, OK!? You guys aren't making this any easier!

---

Tails: Your gear is still as amazing as ever, Wave!

Wave: Is that supposed to be sarcasm, shrimp?

Tails: What? I didn't mean it THAT WAY!

Wave: Well a loss is still a loss, it looks like you're STARTING to get a rudimentary grip on the gear yourself.

---

Wave: Jet! I can guarantee you will win this one!

Jet: I don't need you to tell me that much, Wave! Wait a minute! You didn't do something to their gear, did you!?!

Wave: [pretending to be ignorant over the matter] I-I don't know what you could possibly mean!

Jet: [angrily to Wave] You'd better not do anything to tarnish my reputation here!

---

Jet: You're awfully calm about it. Aren't you ashamed of being beaten?

Sonic: Why? Luck is a big part of victory! This just means you're the lucky one who should be winning today!

Storm: Hey, nobody talks trash about the boss' wins! That was SKILL, not luck!

Tails: Sorry, Sonic! It’s all my fault! Seems like something went wrong with my tuning job...

Jet: Wave...

Wave: [nervously] D-Don’t look at me, Jet!

---

[Team Heroes are about to leave the Grand Prix, defeated]

Jet: WAIT! You can't leave like this! I call a rematch!

Sonic: What?! Are you SURE you wanna' do that!?

Jet: A legendary wind master doesn't accept anything short of absolute victory!

Sonic: Alright then! I'm always game for another round!

---

Omochao: Now, tell us how it feels to be champions!

Jet: Same as every other day. I never lose!

---

Sonic: I gotta' hand it to ya', Jet. I couldn't touch you out there today!

Jet: Then get training! I'll give you a rematch any day of the week!

Tails: I'll do heaps more research on extreme gear for next time!

Wave: Don't expect to catch up to MY level of expertise, but hey, knock yourself out, shrimp.

---

[Team Rose celebrate after winning first race against Team Dark]

Vector: Yeah! That's check and mate! Now, I can finally pay off Big Louie, and maybe Small Louie, too!

Amy: Excuse me! It's still a little early to thinking about that!

Cream: Please, concentrate on the race!

Vector: Look, I think better when I'm thinking about money, OK? It gets me motivated!

---

Omochao: Nice work out there, racers! Now it's time for the big awards ceremony you're all been waiting for! Presenting the prizes, our host King Doc, on his way here with a pile of cash! Ooh, and here he is now!

King Doc: Ohh ho ho ho ho! Well, everone? I trust you found my Grand Prix a suitable challenge? Unfortunately, none of the viewers at home did! They've written in clamoring for more extreme competition. And so! I took the liberty of constructing the ultimate Gear-jockey robot. Ready for the REAL finals?!

Amy: Whaaat?! That's not fair! Nobody said anything about this!

Jet: "Ultimate Gear-jockey"? Please! I'll prove that wrong here and now!

Shadow: Dirty tricks, and that voice... I should have known, Doctor.

King Doc: Er, who's that? I am Doc, king of Tor--

Sonic: Ha! The jig's up, Eggman! Why don't you just drop the act?

King Doc: Because I'm King Doc, you spiny twerp! Now shut up and race! Or don't you want a mountain of cash and/or treasure?!

Vector: I hope for your sake that's not another lie.

[E-10000B shows up.]

Rouge: Wait, weren't you out of commission?

Sonic: This whole thing smells fishy.

Omochao: What, King Doc is really Dr Eggman?! That... Actually, that explains a lot. But hey, who am I to question these? In any case, I'm sure everything will be clear by the end of this new, FINAL final round!

Jet: Hah, he wanted to call that scrap metal the fastest Gear-jockey? Pffft!

Wave: For a Grand Prix host, he doesn't know much about Extreme Gear, does he?

Storm: Now, let's see that cash! Where's all the treasure at?!

Rouge: Don't tell me he split to try to get out of paying?

Shadow: Now that you mention it, I don't see him.

Eggman: Ohh ho ho ho!

Sonic: Finally come clean, huh, Eggman?

Eggman: You fools had no idea I was using the E-10000 to record your racing data. You played right into my trap! I've plugged your combined data into this custom Gear, creating the fastest rig ever to exist!

Knuckles: So that was his game with all this sneaking around.

Tails: Guess you weren't just paranoid after all, Knuckles!

Sonic: This is a lame stunt, even for you, Eggman.

Eggman: Well, how about it? Are any of you brave and stupid enough to challenge me?

Amy: Any day of the week!

Cream: Cheaters never prosper!

Vector: I didn't come this far just to go home broke!

Eggman: Ho ho ho ho! Then you're all in, are you? Get ready to learn who's really the world's fastest now!

Omochao: So... are THESE the finals, then? How many rounds of this are there? Anyway, let's see who's the real, real, REAL champion! It's still anyone's game out there!

Eggman: How? HOW could I possibly lose?! The blasted data I collected didn't help in the slightest!

Tails: Ah ha ha! Are you sure you didn't enter it wrong?

Shadow: His robot WAS spewing out a lot of smoke...

[E-10000B is sitting down and leaking smoke.]

Rouge: Now that you mention it, it did look more than a little shaky.

Wave: You call yourself a genius, and you can't identify the problem?

Jet: Maybe you'd better walk him through it. Wave.

Storm: Yeah, and grab that data while you're at it!

Wave: What use could data from these losers possibly serve you, Jet?

Vector: I've had it up to here with robots and Eggman and ALL of it! Now, where's my money?

Amy: YOUR money? I think you mean OUR money!

Cream: Share nice, Mr. Vector!

Knuckles: Ugh, this has turned into a total joke.

[E-10000B is sitting down and leaking more smoke than before.]

Sonic: Hey, uh... Does he look funny to you?

Omochao: Ack, look out! He could explode at any minute! You guys have gotta get out of here!

[The screen whites out for a moment and Metal Sonic appears in E-10000B's stead with the last puffs of smoke emitting from him.]

Eggman: Wha--?! Metal Sonic?!

Sonic: Wait, how did Eggman not know it was him already?

Tails: My guess is, Metal Sonic took the data for himself and passed on fake info to Eggman!

Eggman: NrrrrrrrRRGH! You insolent bucket of bolts!

Metal Sonic: ...

Sonic: Don't tell me, you want...

Omochao: I think Metal Sonic is challenging the real Sonic to a race!

Eggman: Don't waste your time. He has all of our data. He'll have calibrated his racing style perfectly. He's unbeatable on a Gear, you fool!

Sonic: Well, looks like there's still one last race to run today!

Omochao: Whew, that amazing! The title's finally been decided in a white-hot race that had me holding my breath from start to finish! What a rush!

Metal Sonic: ! ! ! ! !

Omochao: Ah, Metal Sonic's running away!

Eggman: That metal monstrosity just ruined my entire Grand Prix!

Knuckles: Yeah, and whose fault is THAT, again?!

Tails: So, is it safe to assume that you never had any money OR treasure to give out?

Sonic: Yeesh. My job would be easier if you shot down your own plots like this more often.

Wave: Ugh, what a rip! Going home empty handed is going to kill our rep as rogues.

Storm: I'm really sorry about this, boss.

Jet: Why? I actually had a pretty good time, at the end of the day!

Rouge: I'd be lying if I didn't see any of this coming.

Shadow: The doctor's schemes are hardly anything new.

Vector: What, so all that work was for pro bono?!

Cream: Aww, poor Mr. Vector...

Amy: He should be thankful! It's not every day you get to race with two cuties like us! Right, Sonic?

Sonic: Uh... Yeah. Anyway, it sounds like we all managed to have fun.

Omochao: Sigh! Once again, the curtains close on the Grand Prix championship with no clear champion to show for it. But, hey. Like Sonic says, it was a fun time for everyone involved just the same! Here's looking forward to the next exciting World Grand Prix! We'll see you there, I'm sure! Until then, Omochao here, signing off! Buh-bye!

---

[Metal Sonic runs off after losing a race against Sonic]

Eggman: That metal monstrosity just ruined my entire Grand Prix!

Knuckles: Yeah, and who's fault is THAT, again?

Tails: So, is it safe to assume that you never had any money or treasure to give out?

Sonic: Yeesh. My job would be easier if you shot down your own plots like this more often!

Dr. Eggman: [over PA system for the food-themed Sweet Mountain] We know they look delicious, but please refrain from licking the rides. That would be disgusting. Do you know where those rides have been? People have been sitting on those rides... with their butts! Okay, go ahead. Lick them. Don't say we didn't warn you.

---

Eggman: [over PA system] Would Sonic the Hedgehog please report to the security office? Sonic the Hedgehog, please report to the security office. We found your… uh, your keys! Yes, that's it! We found your keys. No need to be ready for a trap as we only want to return your keys.

---

Eggman: [over the PA system] Would the owner of a white hovercar shaped like an egg report to the office? Your car has been broken into. I repeat, would the owner of a white hovercar shaped like an egg report to the office? Your car has been broken into– Wait a minute, what the heck?

---

Sonic: He loves to hear his own lips flap, but I gotta hand to the Eggster; this place is epic. Everyone and their brother will wanna come here.

Tails: No doubt, but now I'm not sure why we're here. This place looks totally harmless.

Sonic: Because Eggman + "secretly built amusement park" = evil plot for us to foil. Lucky for us, he's not very good at keeping things hidden.

Tails: True, it would be hard to miss a giant floating space amusement park surrounded by planets. Still, an evil plot? I dunno.

• [to his Modern counterpart] I think I figured it out!

• [to Modern Sonic] Thanks, Sonic. I thought I was dead! Floating without a body in a black limbo! [shivers] I'm going to have nightmares for weeks.

• [to Classic Sonic] Thank you, Sonic. Wow, you look younger every day! What's your secret?
• [to Modern Sonic] You saved me, Sonic. I was afraid I'd never be able to flirt with you again.

• [to Classic Sonic] Thanks, Sonic. You did a good job back there. Hey, did you gain weight?
• [to Modern Sonic] Thanks for the help. Not that I needed it, but it's good to have my sanctuary back!

• [to Classic Sonic] Thanks, Sonic. Hey, is it me, or did you get a new haircut?
• [to Modern Sonic] Thanks for saving me, Sonic. It was scary in the dark, but I tried to be brave.

• [to Classic Sonic] Thanks, buddy. The thing that snatched me was like nothing I've ever seen before. Watch out. Come to think of it, you're nothing like the Sonic I've seen before.
• [to Modern Sonic] Thanks, Big Blue. That's the first time I've ever been stolen.

• [to Classic Sonic] Thank you, my friend. Beware, for I have looked into the soul of our enemy and I saw only darkness.
• [to Modern Sonic] It takes a mighty foe to trap a ninja. Be on your guard, Sonic.

• Thanks, Sonic. You know, I've got a hunch someone or something is controlling that monster.

• [to Classic Sonic]: That was very scary, but being with you makes it all better! Yeah! Hey... you look different.
• [to Modern Sonic]: I was scared because somebody took me, but now I'm free! I'm a free bee, free bee, free bee! Whee!

• [to Classic Sonic]: I wish I hadn't needed your help, Sonic, but thank you. By the way, you seem to look less... spiky.
• [to Modern Sonic]: As much as I dislike relying on others, I'm grateful for your aid. The creature was beyond my skills.

---

Modern Sonic: [to Classic Sonic] Hey, (Classic) Sonic! Enjoy your future, it's gonna be great!

---

Modern Tails: It's kind of impossible to surprise you.

Modern Sonic: You totally got me this time. I had no idea.

Modern Tails: Yeah, right... [getting out Sonic's present] Happy birthday, Sonic. I hope you like this. [the present is a chill dog, Sonic takes it and bites into it]

Modern Sonic: Like it? I LOVE IT!

---

Modern Sonic: Okay, whatever you are. If you want to avoid an embarrassing beat down, you'd better give up now!

Dr. Eggman: You're not in a position to demand anything, you nasty little pincushion!

Modern Tails: Eggman? But how?

[Another sphere opens, revealing Eggman's classic counterpart, Robotnik.]

Dr. Robotnik: He had a little help.

Classic (Sonic and) Tails: Dr. Robotnik!

Robotnik: Nobody calls me that anymore. (I think… Anywho.) If you would be so kind as to explain, gentleman genius Dr. Eggman from the Future…

Eggman: It will be my pleasure, most excellent and efficacious Dr. (Ivo) Eggman (Robotnik) of the Past.

---

Modern Robotnik: [trapped in the white space with his Classic counterpart and looks exhausted] Grr! Are you sure you saw a door over here?

Dr. Ivo Robotnik: What?! You were the one who said you saw a door over here!

(Modern) Eggman: Well, I know it was one of us. Shut up and keep looking!

[They have a inaudible argument, then walk off in different directions. Later, both doctors are laying on the ground near each other.]

Classic Robotnik: What time is it?

Modern Eggman: It's the exact same time when you asked earlier and it will be the exact same time when you ask later. There is no time here!

(Classic) Robotnik: Let me just say that this was a brilliant plan that you came up with.

Modern Eggman: Don't get too self-righteous. It'll be your plan pretty soon.

90s Robotnik: [aside] I'm going to dedicate the rest of my life to forgetting it.

Modern Eggman: I heard that.

(90s) Robotnik: Do we ever win?

Modern Eggman: That depends on your definition of "win".

Classic Eggman: Beating Sonic(s).

Modern Eggman: Oh… Well, then no.

90s Eggman: That doesn't give me much hope. Maybe I'll go back and get my teaching degree.

Modern Eggman: That's not a bad idea. I've always enjoyed telling people what to do.

Modern Eggman: [flashback to after the events of the epilogue of Sonic Colors] After my most recent setback, I stumbled upon the primordial form of this unique creation, which I discovered had amazing abilities even I have never been able to master. It could erase time and space! [impressed with what he has found, he flies towards the Time Eater.] I then had the brilliant idea to use my discovery to undo my previous defeats! [Flashback ends.] In order to perfect it, I needed the help of someone as smart as I am. The only person that smart... is me!

Classic 90s Eggman: Oh, you are too kind, my dear future self, and I was happy to help.

Modern Eggman: I captured your friends, flinging them through time to bait my traps.

Modern Tails: But the more your monster tears through time, the more damage you do to the world!

Modern Eggman: The world? I'm going to own the world when I'm finished with Sonic! [bursts into maniacal laughter, which is interrupted by coughing and clearing his throat, then more laughter]

(Classic 90s) Robotnik: Wow. Will I really get that crazy?

Modern Eggman: Heheh. We'll see who's crazy after I destroy both Sonics... forever!

Classic 90s Robotnik: You mean "after we destroy them"?

Modern Eggman: Less arguing, more destroying.

---

Modern Amy: You can do it, Sonic!

[The scene moves quickly towards Amy and Knuckles.]

Modern Knuckles: Come on, Sonic. Smack him!

Modern Eggman: Ugh. Not you!

[Next scene shows Shadow standing and looking as Rouge flies down next to him.]

(Modern) Shadow: You got this, Sonic!

(Modern) Rouge: You can win, Sonic!

Classic 90s Robotnik: Who are they?! (What is this?)

Modern Eggman: They are insignificant!

[Next scene shows the Chaotix.]

Modern Vector: You got the power, Sonic!

Modern Espio: Focus your spirit!

Modern Charmy: We're with you, guys!

[Next scene shows Cream and Cheese looking on while Blaze runs up and Silver flies in.]

Cream: I believe in you, Sonic!

Blaze: Don't give in, Sonic!

Silver: I know you can do it, Sonic!

[Next scene shows both Classic and Modern Tails.]

Classic Tails: You can win, Sonic!

Modern Tails: You always do!

[The Chaos Emeralds appear, swirl around both Classic and Modern Sonic, and lift them into the air. Modern Sonic clenches his fist as the Emeralds power him up.]

(Classic and) Modern Sonic: Time to (kick some Ro-butt-niks and) scramble some Eggmen. SUPER SONIC STYLE!!

Modern Eggman: The Time Eater obliterates time and space! Did you really think you could escape him just by running around? Oh ho ho ho! Now it's time to meat your doom, Sonics!

Classic and Modern Tails: Whoaaaaaa!

Modern Sonic: Tails, are you okay?!

Modern Tails: Owww, I think so...

Modern Sonic: Why did you do that?!

Modern Tails: Heh heh.

Classic Tails: I wanted to help, too... Sorry, Sonic.

Modern Sonic: [to his 90s counterpart] We can't let Tails do all the hard work here, can we, partner?

Modern Eggman: Hm? That light?!

Classic 90s Robotnik: Th-the Chaos Emeralds!?

(Classic and) Modern (Super) Sonic: It's time to end this! Time to show 'em what we can do! [they both have turned into Super Sonic] Let's do this! (Time to scramble some Eggmen and kick some Ro-butt-niks!)

• (selected) Here we go!
• (name called in event) Leave it to me!
• (perfect start) Hey-hey!
• (1st-3rd place) Yes!
• (4th-8th place) Aw, man!
• (when an opponent ends the rally) "Aw, messed up!" Or, "Whoa!"
• (when ending the rally) Yes! Nailed it!
• (letting out a shout in Hammer Throw) Whoo-hoo!
• (beating a boss) Too easy!
• (breaking a record) Yeah! That was sweet!
• (1st in Awards Ceremony) It's all about speed!
• (2nd or 3rd in Awards Ceremony) Phew, just made it.
• (4th in Awards Ceremony) Aw, man! I could've done better.

• (selected) I can do it!
• (called in an event) I can do it!

Tails: I’ve made a TV out of paper clips [grunts/pulls a tail out of the roboticizer] and I’ve reprogrammed a super computer with a toothpick and laundry detergent, this time I don’t need the laundry detergent! [he is partially roboticized offscreen, but is not truly brainwashed]

Sonic: (selected) Let's do this! / I got this! I got this one!

[Team Sonic is chasing Eggman, who's flying down a road through the forest in his Eggmobile.]

Dr. Eggman: What's the matter, Sonic, can't keep up?!

Sonic: You were saying?

Eggman: [finds Sonic running right beside him] I didn't mean that literally. It was a taunt! It's Villainy 101! [pounds a button on his Egg Mobile and takes off along the track at high speeds, almost falling off, presses a button and fires missiles ahead of him, causing a pillar to crumble and obstruct the road]

Sonic: Amy, Knuckles! Go left!

Knuckles: Gimme a sec. [tries to figure out his left and right] I'm on it! [he and Amy take the left path while Sonic and Tails stay on the right, both pairs chasing after Eggman]

---

Amy: Cliff, thank goodness we found you.

Cliff: I didn't know what I was missin'.

Amy: What do you know about an ancient tomb with a giant snake in it?

Cliff: Can't say I know much, but I do know about an ancient prison with a giant snake in it.

Amy: Well, how 'bout you tell us about that one?

Cliff: The snake's name is Lyric, and he was locked away to prevent him from destroying all life in the world. [grabs an ancient book and shows it to Team Sonic] He's the last surviving member of a long-lost civilization called the Ancients. They harvested all the energy they needed from powerful crystals. Despite their advanced technology, the Ancients lived in perfect harmony with nature. Except for Lyric, who schemed to steal the Crystals and use them to power an army of machines. When the Ancients found out, they imprisoned him. He's an evil, ruthless, dangerous, pitiless, remorseless monster. [Tails, Knuckles and Amy turn to look at Sonic.] Thank goodness he's locked up for all eternity.

Sonic: Yeaaaahhhh. Funny story. We might have accidentally unleashed him on the world.

Cliff [he and Q-N-C drop their mouths open in shock] Not cool, Sonic… but you might be still able to stop him. Lyric needs those Crystals to reboot his army. His first move will be to go after them. You gotta get 'em first.

Amy: How do we find them?

Cliff: If that prison is still functioning, there must be a Crystal nearby. That's a good place to start. If you have any other questions, my buddy Q-N-C here can answer them.

Q-N-C: What if I have questions?

---

Tails: This place gives me the creeps.

Sonic: Relax. It's not like anything's gonna jump out at you.

[MAIA pops down in front of Tails who gets scared]

Tails: Aaaah!

Sonic: I really didn't see that coming.

MAIA: [scans Sonic and Tails] Scanning life forms... Hedgehog and fox confirmed. It is agreeable to see you both once again!

Sonic: [whispers to Tails] Why does everybody keep saying that? [faces to MAIA] Who are you?

MAIA: I am MAIA. Long ago, I rebelled against my creator, Lyric, and helped imprison him. Now, 1,000 years later, he has returned.

Sonic: We know that. We're looking for the Crystals to stop him.

MAIA: Processing... There is a map that reveals the location of all the Crystals.

Sonic: Where is it?

MAIA: Not where, when. It disappeared long ago, but this machine can transport you to a time before it vanished.

[A ring-shaped time machine is shown in the background.]

Sonic: Let's go.

MAIA: Facility power is nonfunctional. Generator requires reactivation. Location is... up there. [gestures up to a hole in the ceiling where Amy and Knuckles are]

Sonic: Amy, MAIA is going to help us with the Crystals, but we need the generator up and running.

Amy: We're on it. [walks away]

Knuckles: Me too. [walks away too]

---

MAIA: Portal activating. Setting coordinates. Upon completion I will send you through.

Shadow: Not so fast, Sonic.

Tails: Shadow, what are you doing here?

Sonic: Not a great time, Shadow. I'm a little busy saving the world.

Shadow: Saving the world? You? Don't make me laugh. You're weak, and you know what makes you weak? Your loyalty to your pathetic friends. [Sonic glares at Shadow and clenches his fist.] You're not going through that portal. I'm gonna show you just how weak you are!

---

[Shadow stumbles around as a time portal appears behind him. Sonic kicks Shadow into the time portal.]

MAIA: Portal is ready.

Sonic: What happened to Shadow?

MAIA: Calculating… He appears to have landed in the near future. Not yoursm mine. Now go... before the portal closes! [Sonic and Tails enter the time portal before it closes.]

Amy: Back off, Lyric!

[Amy and Lyric enter the shot, fighting each other.]

Lyric: Not until you tell me what those symbols say. [smashes the wall with the glyphs using his tail] I know the hold the location of the shattered fragments of the Lost Crystal!

Amy: [dodges Lyric's attack and looks at her dropped AVA] Why do you think your fellow Ancients hid the fragments in the first place? [dodges Lyric's tail swipe, runs up along a grounded vine, and jumps off with a twirling jump] So slimy snakes like YOU couldn't find them and abuse their powers! [points at Lyric with her hammer]

Lyric: Those frightened fools were too weak to harness this power, and now they are dust. As the last remaining Ancient the Crystal is mine by right! [dives towards Amy who jumps under him, grabs her AVA, and begins talking with Sonic over the AVA]

Sonic: [through AVA] Hi, Amy. What's up?

Amy: Fighting for my life with the fate of the world in the balance, You know, the usual.

[Lyric looks around behind Amy. As Lyric notices, he moves towards her from behind.]

Sonic: [through AVA] Hey, who's that?

Lyric: [knocks Amy's Hammer out of Amy's hand with his tail] You'll tell me what I want to know, little girl.

Amy: I don't think so.

Lyric [grabs a Mind Control Device behind Amy's back with his tail and places it on Amy's head without her knowing. Amy freezes up in place and drops her AVA] What you think is exactly what this device will reveal.

Amy: [falls to the ground, unconscious] Oh...

Sonic: [through AVA] Amy?! [to Lyric] Who are YOU?!

Lyric: [grabs Amy] You can call me Lyric, or Master. Honestly, once I rip the location of the crystal fragments from Amy's brain, I don't care what you call me. [slithers away with Amy and smashes Amy's AVA with his tail]

Sonic: Amy! I gotta get Tails and the gang. Oh, Lyric! You are SO gonna get the big beat down. [closes AVA]

---

Knuckles: He's coming around. Should we knock him out again?

Sonic: No, Knuckles. We need to talk to him. [he and Knuckles ready themselves as Shadow starts groaning]

Shadow: [positions himself] Unnnh, what's going on?

Sonic: That's what WE wanna know! Why'd you attack us? Where's Amy?

Shadow: [jumps to his feet] Back off! You're more annoying than usual. None of this is making sense. Last thing I remember I was talking to... [surprised] Lyric!

Sticks: Lyric! I knew this stinker was in cahoots with the rotten reptile.

Shadow: I don't work for anyone. [notices the Mind Control Device on his head and takes it off] What is THIS?

Tails: [receives the Mind Control Device from Shadow] This thing's scrap now, but it's clearly some advanced tech, like a mini neural bypass switch. A mind control device!

[The Mind Control Device falls out of Tails' hands, drops to the ground and projects a purple hologram of Lyric.]

Lyric: Meddlers! You cost me a valuable asset when you damaged my device.

Sonic: Lyric! Where's Amy, you spineless freak?

Lyric: Safe... for the moment. We're having a the most DELIGHTFUL conversation.

Shadow: Why don't you come here and face me?

Lyric: I'm far too busy peeling back the layers of Amy's brain like a rotten onion. Once she leads me to the crystal fragments I'll have the power of a god, and I'll grind you ALL' under my heel.

Sticks: You don't HAVE a heel. You're a snake.

[The hologram shuts off]

Shadow: I'll hunt him down and make him pay for using me. [runs off]

Sonic: Shadow, wait! Okay, let's follow him into that city and see if we can find any clues about Amy.

Sonic: [he and Amy walks up to another fissure.] Tails thinks these fissures could be the problem, so...

Amy: [uses her hammer to close the fissures with rocks] Problem solved. [she and Sonic notice another fissure] Looks like we've got a LOT of problems.

Sonic: Dibs! This one's mine. What the...? [he and Amy notice D-Fekt walking towards them] I think Eggman lost one of his toys.

Amy: Yeah, he'd make a great action figure if our adventures were ever merchandised.

Sonic: [starts using his fire ability to destroy the fissure, making D-Fekt mad] Well, that made him mad. [he and Amy were trying to catch him, but they failed]

Dr. Eggman: Sonic. How I hate him. [stops walking and looks at a pix-elated screenshot of his new weapon] And all of that loathing has been focused into this invincible instrument of destruction. [Orbot typing onto a terminal and Cubot wiping a strange capsule.] Every defeat. Every humiliation at the Hedgehog's hands will be returned a thousandfold by my unstoppable creation. [walks up to the capsule, and pushes Cubot out of the way] This is my dream come true. With this invention, I can expand the Eggman Empire across the globe, and conquer the world! Mwa-ha-ha-ha!

Orbot: The boss means business this time.

Cubot: Mm-hm.

Zavok: This is the end, Sonic.

Sonic: [sarcastically] Oh hey, sounds like the party's started. Want to let me go and join in? No? Of course not, you hate fun. [The alarm rings and Sonic's cuffs come off.] Oh, wow! "The end", huh? Let's see you try something now that I'm free.

Zavok: Foolish hedgehog. Getting out of your chains does not make you free. Now come and face the inevitable.

Sonic: [running out of his cell] The only thing inevitable here is my foot kicking your butt!

---

Sonic: Whoa; it's not time for thinking! It's time for running!

---

Masked Man: This wasn't part of my agenda, but I'm always happy to crush a hero. It keeps the rabble in line. Shows them that there is no hope.

Silver: Does anyone but you believe your lies?

Masked Man: Seeing is believing. [flies at Silver, but Sonic knocks him away]

Sonic: Time to tag out, Silver! I've got it from here!

Masked Man: Well, look who's back from the dead. The little blue savior, but what's that I smell? You reek of fear. Glad to see I left an impression.

Sonic: [sniffs his own armpit] That's not fear. I ran all the way over here, and you haven't left an impression. I don't know anything about you! Not even your name.

Masked Man: You may call me "Infinite" in the brief moments that remain to you.

Sonic: Great! See, Infinite? Now, we're getting to know each other! So what's your favorite color? Do you like long, romantic walks on the beach? What's the source of your power? You can skip the first 2 questions if you like.

Infinite: The source of my power is none of your concern.

Sonic: Sorry, but you've just GOT to share the secret of your power with me. I insist!

Infinite: Your insistence is futile! [unleashes a wave that negates gravity]

---

Knuckles: None of this is good, Vector. This is why it's called war.

---

[in Green Hill]

Infinite: ...And with that, the disposal of the Phantom Ruby prototypes is complete.

Eggman: It was a defective model. It could only record the DNA of the one that triggered it.

Infinite: Only a being with my strength of will could ever activate it.

Eggman: It doesn't matter now, with the lab locked down in Mystic Jungle. Which reminds me, didn't you run into Sonic there after he escaped?

Infinite: Yes, but he was powerless against me. There is no need for concern.

Eggman: You let the hedgehog live!? That is a great source of concern.

Infinite: For you, perhaps. He has beaten you for decades, yet I defeated him in our first encounter.

Modern Tails: "Phantom Ruby prototypes", and Sonic... is alive?

Eggman: What is it?

Infinite: Nothing. We move forward with the plan?

Eggman: Of course! When it's complete, the resistance will be erased. The world will be nothing but ashes, from which a glorious Eggman Empire will rise!

Infinite: And the resistance will yield to the Phantom Ruby's power. All will submit. [flies away]

Modern Robotnik: [to Classic Sonic] What, you!? [Classic Sonic hits the Eggmobile with a Spin Attack] I don't have time for this.

---

Modern Tails: [to Classic 90s Sonic] Yeah, we did it! (Well… you did it, but still…)

Modern Eggman: [laughing] Look at you fighting like you've got a chance to win. It's adorable. Almost makes me feel bad that we're never going to do this little dance again. In just 3 short days, my plan will eliminate the bothersome lot of you!

Modern Tails: Wait, 3 days and what plan?

Modern Eggman: If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise! You know what they say, "the anticipation of the end is worse than the end itself". Maybe not in this case though. Mwa-hahaha!

---

Modern Tails: SONIC!

Modern Sonic: TAILS!

Modern Tails: I was sooo worried. I thought that you were…

Modern Sonic: You worry too much. Look, I'm perfectly fine. [to his 90s counterpart] Ah, it's been generations since I've seen you. You okay? [Classic 90s Sonic gives his Modern counterpart a thumbs up]

Modern Tails: The good news is you're safe. The bad news is that Eggman said he has some plan that would destroy us all in 3 days!

Modern Sonic: 3 days, huh? Well, a lot can happen in that time!

---

Modern Knuckles: We've got less than an hour before Eggman's plan goes down.

Shadow: There's no more time. We have to break into the fortress now.

Silver: Indeed, this is it. Our last opportunity to bring peace back into the world.

Modern Tails: But... when the battle ends, we'll have to part with Sonic – I mean, this Sonic – won't he?

Modern Amy: Yes, if the Phantom Ruby is gone, I guess that dude will be returned to his dimension.

Modern Tails: [to Classic Sonic] Thank you for everything, Sonic. I'll never forget what you did for us.

Modern Espio: Save the sentiments for later. This is not over yet. We still have a battle to fight.

Modern Knuckles: Exactly. This is our last chance. Give it everything you've got!

---

Infinite: [fully charges up the Phantom Ruby prototype] You're done for, Sonic. The Phantom Ruby's energy is recharged. [performs a powerful energy wave] Perish, along with your useless friends! [The Rookie Avatar intervenes in the battle, shooting out his grappling hook at Infinite. Infinite dodges and glares at the Avatar.] You!

Sonic: [The Rookie Avatar lands beside him] My friends got me this far, and together we're gonna win!

Rouge: Shadow, We've got a report from the intelligence division. They've located an unknown base of operations, that seems to be totally outside the chain of command for Eggman's Army. There's a large-scale troop presence. Suspiciously large for a place with no strategic value.

Shadow: I can't imagine the doctor would do something like that without reason.

Rouge: No kidding, and there's a rumor going around that ol' rotten Eggman has been developing some kind of new weapon, so...

Shadow: Yeah. Looks like this won't be your garden variety recon mission.

Rouge: Do it to it, Shadow. Omega went on ahead of you, so you can link up with him on-site.

Shadow: I'm more than enough on my own. I'll handle things my way.

Rouge: [giggles] Omega said the same thing. You 2 go together like chili and hot dogs!

Shadow: Cut the chatter. I'm on my way.

---

Eggman: [Cut to the area where Infinite leaps from stone pillar to stone pillar finding a spot to attack Shadow.] Hey, you! I know you can hear me! You're captain of Squad Jackal, aren't you?! Your squad was useless! GO CLEAN UP THEIR MESS ALREADY!

Infinite: Yeah, yeah, I got it... You. You destroyed my squad. i'll show you why they call me the Ultimate Mercenary! [charges at Shadow] Take this! [Shadow activates Chaos Control] What?!

[Shadow attacks Infinite with a round house kick launching him in the air, and slamming him with his 2 fists making him land on the ground without landing on his feet, as Shadow delivered Infinite the final blow with a round house kick, launching him into another stone pillar.]

Shadow: Worthless. Don't show your pathetic face around me ever again. [Cut to Infinite's point of view as Shadow activates Chaos Control.]

'Infinite: I... I'm shaking. Me? Me... Afraid...?! [fades to your point of view] Ugh. Pathetic?! Me... [gets up] He's calling ME weak?! No...! I'm not weak. I'm... I not. I am not weak! I AM NOT WEEAAK!! URRRAAAAAAAAAGGH!!! [putting on his mask and placing the finalized Phantom Ruby prototype on his chest, and red aura surrounds him as he turns the color background all red as his theme plays back at Eggman's lab] That day, I gave up my own unsightly face, and I let go of the old me, the one that was so weak, so that I could become stronger. And then, at last... I obtained the power. The power to make all yield to my will. I... was... reborn!!!

Eggman: Sonic! It's now or never!

Sonic: Sorry, "Master King". Looks like I'm going all-out after all!

[He begins to push himself to his utmost limits as the cyber corruption starts to subsume his body as he fully harnesses and masters it to it's full potential, with his golden and electric red auras becoming white and cyan electric sparks and his body becoming completely black and blue with a glowing cyan glitching effect affecting him. His cyan eyes also turn to grey as he transforms into Super Sonic Cyber, screaming in the process. Eggman then aims Supreme's rifle at Supreme and The End to deliver the finishing blow. Once he locks on, he fires the now corrupted Super Sonic at the Titan and the fake moon. His grey eyes have black rings and his teeth have been sharpened, giving him a frenzied appearance very similar to his Fleetway Editions Sonic the Comic counterpart's super form. He does a vastly faster and stronger version of his Wild Rush and completely obliterates Supreme, before blasting through The End, screaming while finishing off the maliciously narcissistic entity once and for all. The End, after being defeated by Sonic, his friends, Eggman and Sage, proceeds to self-destruct in a last-ditch attempt to wipe them all out along with the rest of the entire Earth out of pure spite. Sonic is then seen back to Super Sonic, unconscious and covered in bruises and scrapes, severely injured having sustained battle damage after using his Cyber form to annihilate The End for good. The usage of his Cyber form completely burned out his cyber corruption, making him permanently lose access to both his Super Sonic 2 and Super Sonic Cyber transformations. The End then explodes, but fails to destroy the world and the universe, thus all of existence is saved from the malevolent entity's reign of terror. Sonic continues to unconsciously float and drift across Earth's orbit as he falls back down to the planet's surface in front of his friends, completely restored back to their original physical forms and released from Cyber Space once and for all.]

Sonic: Ugh. I've heard of "falling asleep", but that was ridiculous.

[He gets up, shakes himself off and spits out some sand. He then hears a female voice.]

Female Voice (Ariem): I am looking after your friends, but they will need your help.

[After looking for the source of the voice, Sonic starts to go through the first act of Scrambled Shores.]

Devil Doom: You were made to serve my will. Now, join with me as you were made to do.

Shadow: Defy me at your own peril.

• Sonic was born on a small island called Christmas Island. But his love for adventure called him away and he has visited so many different places on Earth that he doesn't really have a place he considers to be home. The Sonic stories center around his favorite group of islands including South Island (Sonic 1), Westside Island (Sonic 2), and Angel Island (Sonic 3). The first Sonic Story is located on South Island which is quite beautiful. This island is known for the curious fact that it floats around in the ocean. That is why it can not be found on any map. Sonic is fond of sitting on its beach in his beach chair, wearing sunglasses, and listening to cool rock music. Sonic loves to sing in his own rock band, and enjoys being with his friends, but he is just as happy to be alone.
  Sonic would be very happy enjoying his own pastimes were it not for the constant intrusions of his arch rival Dr. Robotnik (also sometimes known as Eggman because of his round shape). The evil doctor seems to have an endless supply of fiendish plots to take over the world, but Sonic seems to always find a way to frustrate his plans and keep him at bay. This has given Sonic somewhat of a celebrity status with the local inhabitants and he is loved by all as much as Robotnik is hated by all.
  Westside Island is a very ancient island with plenty of treasures and ancient ruins. It is also said to contain a small supply of a very powerful natural crystals called "Chaos Emeralds". These multi-colored emeralds have tremendous energy and could be used to create the most powerful nuclear bombs and laser weapons if they fell into the wrong hands. Legend says that they exist here, but nobody can remember actually seeing them. The reason for this is that the Chaos Emeralds exist in a _different dimension_ and no one has yet been able to find a way to actually possess them.
  One day, Dr. Robotnik heard the stories of the Chaos Emeralds and he vowed to do whatever it took to acquire them for his own evil purposes. He, and his henchmen, built a huge fortress where he made robots of many types and sent them off to find the Chaos Emeralds. Sonic stood up in defiance of Robotnik's troops and kicked them all back into the fortress telling them never to come out again. But the evil doctor had other plans. as he sulked away, he vowed that he would find the Chaos Emeralds, and he would get his revenge on Sonic the Hedgehog.
  A short time later, Sonic made an amazing discovery. His friends had all disappeared! Robotnik had been capturing all of the defenseless animals in the countryside and had changed them into robots! Dr. Robotnik was converting Sonic's friends into slaves and now only Sonic to save them! Can Sonic do it?
  Will Robotnik succeed in his quest for the emeralds while exacting his revenge on Sonic? Can Sonic subdue the hoards of robot animals without hurting his friends inside? Will Robotnik take over the whole world?
  So begins the video game saga of Sonic the Hedgehog......
• Sonic is the star. He is a cool blue dude with an attitude. he is not a "do-gooding" hero. He is loyal to his friends and has a good sense of right and wrong, but he is a very independent guy who is mostly interested in doing his own thing. He is not book smart, but he is very street smart. He loves beauty, nature, and adventure, but his primary passion is for speed and indeed he can run faster than anyone on the planet. Two things he does not do are; swim (he sinks like a stone), or ride around in cars, motorcycles, etc. (why should he when he can run faster than them all!). He fancies himself as a bit of a ladies man, but he does not like to be chased by girls. He is generally impatient and likes to get things done quickly. Sometimes this can work against him because he is not very detail oriented. But for the most part, Sonic is as quick witted as he is fast footed and this gives him an extraordinary combination of talents that keep him the idol of kids around the globe.
• The evil doctor (also known as Eggman) has been a bad egg from the very beginning. Nobody knows quite where he came from, but he is definitely behind any problem that comes up. Dr. Robotnik loves machines. He loves them so much that his idea of a perfect world would be to have it full of nothing but machines. He thinks they are beautiful and he likes that he can control them. A genuine genius megalomaniac, he spends all of his time trying to replace the natural world with his beautiful machines He is not very concerned about saving the planet (being a notorious polluter), and he particularly likes the idea of exploiting the oceans for their riches (This really gets to Sonic, because Sonic loves the oceans and can't stand the idea of Robotnik messing with them). In order to have ultimate control in his quest, Robotnik must find and control all of the Chaos Emeralds, and most importantly.....Sonic.
