This page focuses on Chapters 3 and 4 of the story of Sonic Adventure 4: Black Arms Rising.
==Chapter 3: Jungles And Islands==
===Trapped in the Ruins===
[Rouge is at the Mystic Ruins searching for a Chaos Emerald.]
Rouge: Just a few more miles to the Emerald... [Spots a group of aliens ahead] Here comes the aliens.
[Rouge battles off the aliens. An alien attacks Rouge from behind, knocking her down a cave.]
Rouge: Ouch! Ahhh! [Falls down a cave]
===Big Joins In===
[The scene takes place at the jungle area of the Mystic Ruins where Big is fishing at a lake nearby his hut; Froggy is beside him watching]
Big: Oh! Still waiting on some fish.
[All of a sudden, a swarm of lasers destroy Big's hut.]
Big: My hut!
[Big is confronted by a group of Black Arms]
Big: Who are these monsters!
[The aliens abduct Froggy]
Big: Hey! Let go of my pal!
[Big uses his fishing rod to attack the Black Arms and rescues Froggy; then a bigger Black Arm, Black Oak, appears.]
Big: Oh, dear.
[Before the Black Oak attacks, Sonic and the others arrive and attack him.]
Sonic: Got you covered, Big!
Big: Uh... thanks uh, Sonic.
Cream: Nice to see you, Mr. Big.
Big: Nice to see you, too!
Tails: So some aliens came here, too?
Big: Yes. They came in and a big alien attacked our hut. It's a mess.
Amy: Don't worry, Big, we'll try to get it fixed. I hope we can, 'cause these aliens are everywhere.
Sonic: Maybe you'll join us. We could use some extra muscle against these freaks.
Big: Guess I could join. It wouldn't hurt.
Cream: Okay!
Sonic: Now, let's find some aliens.
===Finding Rouge===
[Sonic, Tails, Amy, Cream, and Big are at the ruins, and have already eliminated another army of Black Arms; Commander Tower is calling from the communicator.]
Commander Tower: Sonic, have you and your friends rescued agent Rouge?
Sonic: Not yet. We've already eliminated some Black Arms.
Commander Tower: Well, hurry up and find her now! She should be at the ancient ruins.
Sonic: Sure thing. Alright, guys, let's go.
===Emerald in the Ruins===
[The heroes arrive to the ancient civilization]
Tails: Rouge may be around here.
Rouge: Looking for me?
Amy: There you are!
Sonic: The Commander told us to find you.
Rouge: I always find my way, but thanks anyways. Now I wanna get my hands on that Chaos Emerald.
Tails: Don't you mean "we" gotta find the Chaos Emerald?
Rouge: Yeah. Let's go with that. It's just far ahead. Plus, some troops have eliminated some aliens around here, but there's more where that came from, so let's not get too comfortable.
Sonic: Alright. Let's head down there as fast as we can!
===Black Tarantula===
[Sonic, Tails, Amy, Cream, Big, and Rouge are confronted by Doom's Eye]
Sonic: It's tentacles again!
Doom's Eye: So you beat us to the Emerald.
Sonic: Yep. Too bad your henchmen were having trouble with GUN.
Black Doom: You pitiful parasites will all be having trouble with Black Tarantula!
[Black Tarantula appears]
Amy: Ugh! Disgusting.
Rouge: Tell me about it.
Black Doom: You all need a rest from defending this polluted planet!
Sonic: You're going down, you big ugly bug!
===Heading to Angel Island===
Rouge: Commander, we retrieved the Chaos Emerald.
Com. Tower: [from communicator] We're not quite done yet. We need to head over to Angel Island. There's some aliens flying over there. Best to get moving!
Rouge: Copy that. Just what I'm looking forward too. A trip to Angel Island.
Sonic: Let me guess. It's Knuckles, right?
Rouge: And the Master Emerald. But it's mostly Knuckles.
Amy: You like him, don't you?
Rouge: Oh please! We're not an item. He's nowhere near my type.
Tails: I'd hate to interrupt the conversation, but we gotta hurry to Angel Island.
Sonic: Yeah. Let's hope Knuckles doesn't have a hard time with those creatures.
===Angel Island Falling===
[Sonic, Tails, Amy, Cream, Big, and Rouge are approaching Angel Island; just then, the island begins to rumble loudly.]
Big: Whoa!
Cream: What's happening?
Sonic: I think I know. Angel Island is falling, and that means those aliens stole the Master Emerald!
[Angel Island falls into the ocean]
Rouge: Now these aliens are really getting on my nerves!
Amy: We still gotta find Knuckles!
Tails: Yeah. Let's hope he's okay.
===Helping Knuckles and Julie-Su===
[At a jungle area of Angel Island, Knuckles and Julie-Su are battling a group of Black Arms]
Knuckles: Grr! You aliens scram!
Julie-Su: Sadly, they don't understand our language!
[Sonic and the others arrive to assist them]
Knuckles: Took you long enough!
Sonic: We had to deal with these aliens on our way here! What else?
[The heroes take out the group of Black Arms]
Sonic: That'll take care of them.
Julie-Su: Nice to see you guys again.
Rouge: It sure is, and most of all, it's nice seeing you again, Knucklehead!
Knuckles: Yeah, sure.
Tails: We knew those aliens stole the Master Emerald.
Knuckles: And that's exactly why me and Julie are after them. A group of them attacked us at the altar and stole the Emerald.
Sonic: Say, one of them was on a spaceship and may have landed somewhere in the island.
Tails: Sounds like we gotta hurry before they fly away with the Master Emerald.
Rouge: You know you can't count me out.
Knuckles: Sonic, why is Rouge joining y'all?
Sonic: She came to help us fight the Black Arms.
Rouge: What? You don't think I'm just gonna take it just so I can steal it?
Knuckles: Well, you had me there.
Sonic: Let's make it quick!
===Battling Eclipse===
[Eclipse is running to his ship with the Master Emerald in possession.]
Eclipse: Almost there!
Sonic: [From a distance] Going somewhere, alien boy?
Eclipse: It's the hedgehog! How did you--
[Knuckles punches Eclipse from surprise. He secures the Master Emerald. The others appear as well.]
Knuckles: Thieves never prosper! And you can get out of Angel Island!
Eclipse: More like you all will never prosper! [Gets up from the ground] I'll take on all 8 of you since I'm an elite Black Arm!
Sonic: Elite huh? Well show us what you can do!
Eclipse: Hahaha! Be careful what you wish for, hedgehog! You just might get it!
===Master Emerald Secured===
[Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Cream, Big, Rouge, and Julie-Su stand in front of a nearly-defeated Eclipse.]
Knuckles: He sure is tough.
Eclipse: Hahaha! Surprise, mobians!
Julie-Su What surprise?
[Eclipse begins to transforms into a larger form of himself.]
Sonic: What?!
Tails: Now look at this guy!
Eclipse: Take this!
[Eclipse attacks the heroes with full force]
Eclipse: Prepare to get crushed like the parasites that you all are!
Black Doom: [from communicator] Eclipse! I located the 2 Chaos Emeralds! Withdraw the Master Emerald and depart from the island immediately!
Eclipse: Are you sure?
Black Doom: [from communicator] Yes! Remember that the 7 Chaos Emeralds are our primary goal. Now go! Head to the mountains.
Eclipse: Will do, master! [Turns to the heroes] You all got lucky. Since I'll be on my way, consider that a sneak peak of our next encounter. You'll see more of what I can do in my monster form! Farewell, mobians! [Leaves in his spaceship]
Big: That went well.
Knuckles: One thing's for sure, the Master Emerald is safe. Time to return this to the shrine.
[The heroes head to the Emerald shrine]
===Returning the Master Emerald===
[The heroes arrive to the shrine; Knuckles puts the Master Emerald on the center of the shrine; Angel Island begins to rumble.]
Big: Whoa!
[Angel Island rises from the oceans and is now floating again.]
Rouge: Now this island is floating again!
Cream: Wow!
Cheese: Chao! Chao!
===Knuckles and Julie-Su Joins In===
Julie-Su: Now what about those aliens.
Sonic: They call themselves the Black Arms. I first saw them at Central City and they've been tearing up other places after that.
Knuckles: This ain't good at all.
Sonic: Then I'm pretty sure you and Julie wanna come along the alien extermination crusade.
Knuckles: I'm afraid not, guys. Angel Island and the Master Emerald need to be guarded.
Julie-Su: Come on, Knuckles. I think we should help out. Besides, those monsters aren't gonna bother coming back here again.
Knuckles: But there's Eggman.
Sonic: Those creatures are more of a problem that him. Look, this is more than just Angel Island we're talking about. They're going after the entire world. You wouldn't be guarding the Emerald if the world was destroyed, would you?
Knuckles: Alright, I give in. I mean I left the island before under Tikal's guidance last time I left. Guess this is my way of owing you guys for helping me defeat Eggman and the Dark Legion.
Sonic: That's the spirit, Knuckles!
Knuckles: Gotta make some arraignments. [Goes to the Master Emerald] Tikal! I need you to guard the Master Emerald as I go with Sonic and the others to deal with a serious threat.
[Tikal appears]
Tikal: Your request has been granted, Knuckles. I wish all of you the best in your battle.
Knuckles: Thank you, Tikal.
Com. Tower: [from communicator] The Black Arms have been successfully neutralized in Angel Island. Now we must head to Blue Ridge Zone where two Chaos Emeralds are located as well as an army of Black Arms. We must hurry there immediately!
Rouge: On the way, commander. I don't know about you guys, but I wanna get my hands on two lovely Emeralds.
Knuckles: In that case, I'm ready to rough up some stinkin' aliens.
Sonic: Time to head to Blue Ridge Zone.
[The heroes set to leave the shrine as Tikal looks on]
==Chapter 4: Voyage in Blue Ridge Zone==
===Send the Eggman Fleet===
[The scene takes place at Egg Metropolis; Inside, Dr. Eggman, along with Metal Sonic, Orbot, and Cubot, is watching the Black Arms decimate Westopolis and Emerald Town on the news.]
Eggman: Those creatures! They're destroying everything! How can I take over the city and build the Eggman Empire if there is no city?! I'm at my limit! I have no choice! Orbot, Cubot, send in the Eggman Fleet and the Eggman Army! Pronto!
Orbot: As you wish!
Cubot: You got it, boss!
Eggman: Metal Sonic, I've located two Chaos Emeralds at Blue Ridge Zone and I need you to head over there to retrieve them.
Metal Sonic: Yes, Dr. Eggman.
Eggman: Come to think of it, those aliens are lurking at the Blue Ridge Zone, so I feel it's best to have someone to help you in this mission.
[Eggman and Metal Sonic turn their attention to a cryogenic chamber containing an unknown figure]
===Old Friend===
[Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Cream, Big, Rouge, and Julie-Su are at Blue Ridge Zone; they are confronted by four Black Oaks]
Sonic: Aren't they happy to see us?
[Just then, Mighty, one of Sonic's old friend, arrives and attacks the Black Oaks]
Mighty: Thought you need a hand.
Sonic: Mighty?
Knuckles: Well I'll be.
Sonic: How long has it been?
Mighty: I say five years.
Amy: You know him, Sonic?
Knuckles: You never told me that.
Sonic: You never asked. Me and Tails met him at some island Eggman kidnapped us at, but we got out.
Tails: Where's Ray?
Mighty: He went back to his homeland. We still see each other often, though. I'll give him your regards. And it's great seeing you, Knuckles.
Knuckles: It has. You never told me you met Sonic and Tails.
Mighty: Yeah.
Sonic: So you know Knuckles as well?
Knuckles: I met him as well as the Chaotix back at Angel Island when Eggman was attacking it.
Mighty: Speaking of the others, where are they?
Knuckles: They're still in Angel Island. They're detectives now.
Mighty: Well, that's good to hear. I wish they were here.
Amy: Say, Sonic. Aren't you gonna introduce us to your friend?
Sonic: Oh, right. Mighty, this is Amy, Cream, Big, Rouge, and Julie-Su.
Mighty: Great to meet you all.
Cream: You look just like Sonic.
Amy: You sure do. Except Sonic's a hedgehog and you're...
Mighty: ...an armadillo. And yeah, I get that a lot.
Sonic: So you heard about these aliens running amok?
Mighty: I never heard of them until I saw you guys being confronted by those big monsters.
Tails: They've been nothing but trouble lately. We've been fighting against them a few places here and there.
Mighty: In that case, I'll join in and help you guys.
Sonic: Join the resistance.
Rouge: I might want to contact Commander Tower about the Chaos Emeralds. [Using her communicator] Commander, come in. Where exactly are the two Emeralds?
Commander: One of them is at a canyon while the other is at a castle. Hurry before the Black Arms get their hands on them!
Rouge: Roger!
Tails: Guys, since there are two Chaos Emeralds at each place, we'll have to split up in groups to shorten time.
Sonic: Good idea.
Tails: I'll have my team go to the castle while your team go to the canyon. I'll choose Amy, Cream, and Big for my team.
Amy: Aw, I wanted to go with Sonic, but I guess we'll try another time.
Sonic: Then that leaves me with Knuckles, Julie, Rouge, and Mighty.
[Sonic, Knuckles, Rouge, Julie-Su, and Mighty head to the canyon while Tails, Amy, Cream, and Big head to the castle]
Amy: Sonic, you guys take care! Be careful!
Sonic: Same to you, guys!
===Glyphic Canyon===
[Sonic, Knuckles, Rouge, Julie-Su, and Mighty arrive to the canyon]
Mighty: So, Sonic, is Amy your girlfriend or something?
Sonic: Girlfriend? Nah. It's not like that at all.
Knuckles: Or so he says.
Sonic: Very funny, Knuckles!
Mighty: Well, one day, those true feelings will have to come out.
Sonic: Oh, I can't believe you got sucked into this.
Knuckles: Anyways, it seems to me the Emerald isn't that far from here.
Rouge: Let a true treasure hunter show you how it's done.
Knuckles: Says you! I can find it faster than you any day!
Julie-Su: Here they go.
Mighty: What's going on with them?
Sonic: Simple, they're in love.
Knuckles/Rouge: [indignantly] No we aren't!
Sonic: Whatever you two say.
===Cryptic Castle===
[Tails, Amy, Cream, and Big arrive to the castle]
Amy: So the Chaos Emerald is in this spooky castle?
Tails: Sadly, yes.
Cream: It's so scary.
Big: I'll stand right with you.
Amy: Me too. We can get through this, Cream.
Cream: Thank you, Amy, Mr. Big.
Tails: Knuckles told me he dealt with ghosts before, so maybe we'll take the fight to them. I hope. More importantly, we'll take the fight to those aliens.
===Egg Breaker===
[Tails's group finds the Chaos Emerald]
Cream: We did it, guys!
Cheese: Chao!
Amy: And we got through the spookiness of this castle!
[Eggman appears via Egg Breaker]
Tails: Eggman!
Eggman: What are you four doing here in an ominous place like this?
Tails: Looking for a Chaos Emerald, which we found and won't give it to rotten eggs like you!
Eggman: That Sonic is such a good influence to you, isn't he, fox boy? Now that you have the Emerald, I'll have to make you give them to me! With this Egg Breaker, I'm going to crush all 4 of you, just like I will to Sonic and those rotten aliens!
===Mission in Prison Island===
[The scene takes place at Prison Island where Vector, Espio, and Charmy are on a mission]
Vector: Here we are, boys. Prison Island.
Charmy: This place has been trashed.
Espio: This island was blown up by Dr. Eggman several months ago, was it?
Vector: Well, some parts of it was destroyed. The research lab underground is still in good condition. Alright, let's find the secret laboratory and get the floppy disk.
Charmy: Gotcha!
Espio: Roger!
===Floppy Disk===
[Vector, Espio, and Charmy have acquired the floppy disk inside the abandoned laboratory]
Espio: Here's the floppy disk.
Charmy: What is Project Shadow?
Vector: Beat me, Charmy. But we'll get some answers later. Let's get out of this island.
===Off to the Tundras===
[Sonic, Knuckles, Mighty, Rouge, and Julie-Su meet up with Tails, Amy, Cream, and Big]
Sonic: Tails, you got the Emerald?
Tails: Right here. What about you?
Rouge: Voila. That's what being a treasure hunter is all about.
Knuckles: We helped too, so don't bother getting all the credit, batty.
Cream: I'm glad we're out of that creepy castle with those ghosts.
Amy: Not only that, but we also had a run-in with Dr. you-know-who.
Sonic: Eggman. I knew that big-nosed madman gonna be involved.
Mighty: Just why would he go after the Chaos Emeralds during a time like this?
Sonic: Guess Eggman wants all the Emeralds for himself.
Com. Tower: [from communicator] Come in, Mobians! There's some Black Arms at the tundras. Exterminate them at all costs! Plain and simple.
Rouge: Well, you all heard the man. Let's get going!
===Black Golem===
[The heroes are confronted by Doom's Eye]
Doom's Eye: What is this atrocity?!
Sonic: Mad that we got the Emeralds before you guys again? Well, too bad!
Doom's Eye: That will all change. Black Golem, come forth!
[Black Golem, a huge Black Arm, appears]
Sonic: Whoa!
Doom's Eye: The Black Oaks will be the least of your worries! Now Black Golem, obliterate them with your brute force! And after that, seize the Chaos Emeralds from them!
===Shadow Returns===
[The heroes barely defeated Black Golem
Sonic: Is that it?
Tails: I hope so.
Knuckles: This beast is tough just like Black Doom said.
[Black Golem rises up]
Sonic: Brace yourselves, guys!
[The heroes try to go for an attack, but Black Golem ambushes them by fiercely punching the ground; this causes the group to drop the Chaos Emeralds]
Sonic: Shoot! The Chaos Emeralds!
Doom's Eye: How does it feel to be in the verge of losing, you little pest? Black Golem, finish the insolent hedgehog and his allies!
Amy: We're done for!
[Before Black Golem could try to smash the heroes, two figures appears and attack each arm of the alien]
Tails: Huh?
[The first figure revealed is Metal Sonic]
Sonic: Metal Sonic!
Rouge: And he's not alone.
Doom's Eye: What's this?
[The second figure revealed is none other than Shadow]
Rouge: [Gasps]
Tails: Is that who I think it is?
Sonic: Shadow!
Amy: Shadow?
[Shadow and Metal Sonic charge through the Black Golem's chest, destroying him completely]
Knuckles: They defeated the Black Golem!
[Shadow and Metal Sonic take the Chaos Emeralds and head to the top of a mountain]
Rouge: The Emeralds!
Shadow: Chaos Control!
[Shadow uses Chaos Control to teleport Metal Sonic and himself to another location as the heroes look on in confusion]
