"Hello. Do you want to play with me?"
"You're too slow, want to try again?"
"Found you..."
"So many souls to play with, so little time... would you agree?"
"You're a lot fun to play with hedgehog, just like your friends, though they didn't last long..."
"Won't be long now until you join them and all my other friends..."
"You can't run, hedgebog. You're in my world now. Just like the others..."
"Try to keep this interesting for me..."
“You’re learning more about this better than anyone, aren’t you, Sonic?”
“See? I’m not such a bad guy Sonic, I can be kind when I want to…”
“I really do love humans, Sonic.”
“So much fun to play with, in fact... ...I guess you could say... ...they’re the ultimate toy...”
"Ready for Round 2?"
"I AM GOD!"
=== J.C. the Hyena ===
"I deeply regret to inform you all that I received some sad news. Our other leader and good friend Shannon Goldman had recently been defeated by a heretical hedgehog by the name of Sonic, but does that mean we've lost our goal to bring our lord and master to our world? Absolutely not!
As you can see, our master's with the truth that our great friend, who had attracted the hearts of millions and had made a massive impact on our cult, was eventually beaten down by a bunch of jealous, arrogant, stupid haters. But that does not mean we're just going to sit down and take this lightly, oh no way, they've been messing with the bull, and now they've called out the horns!
Listen everyone, we need your help with this. We're at WAR here. We want every worhipper of Exe who's listening to me to get the word out! We want you to tell every other worhshipper out there, every fanatic, every loyalist, every follower of our creator about this. Tell your friends who also worhship our divine being if they have to! Tell them we have to keep the spirit of Exe alive!
Make more art, make more songs to sing out for his glory, fight the haters, praise Exe like you never have before, build churches dedicated to his greatness, whatever you got to do to keep him alive and strong, just do it.
The downfall of Shannon Goldman was but a minor cut on our flower of greatness, my friends! And that cut has done nothing but further the spreading, and we are the pollen of this flower! We need to prepare for our victory over the Haters! The Haters need to BLEED for their crimes!
Rejoice, my fellow Exe followers! Our glorious almighty Hellspawn shall have the laugh yet! This will be his ultimate victory! The absolute subjugation of the universe itself!"
=== Other ===
* Knuckles: Get your bloody hands off us, you crazy cultist freaks!
* Shannon Goldman: Isn’t that what you would call the people of Soleanna and the so-called Chao, Mr. Hedgehog?
* Shadow: Shannon Goldman!
* Goldman: Shadow, why do you and your friends deny Exe? Don’t you see what he’s trying to do for everyone? He only wants to make our world as happy as he is.
* Silver: Happy? You think stealing souls and turning them into puppets are being happy? Our world isn't his toybox, you blind slave!
* Goldman: It’s not your place to decide what Exe wants with all living creatures, Mr. Hedgehog. He's a divine being that wishes to make us all happy by showing us the paradise that's his world alone, and taking us from the wretched filth of a planet we’ve been forced to live on. 
* Shadow: Some of us actually like this planet, Goldman! Exe’s world is nothing more than a prison! All Exe cares about is making us his playthings for all eternity! Can’t you see that’s not fair?! 
* Goldman: What do any of you know about what’s not fair?! 
* Sonic: More than you do obviously! 
* Goldman: You fools…X chose me and J.C. to be his most loyal because he knew we both never liked this planet, he knew I want to be rid of the stupidity caused by all life! I’m perfectly okay with being Exe's slave if it means getting away from it all, getting the peace I finally deserve after all this time! And if everyone’s gotta go with me then too f***ing bad! 
* Sonic: Whatever…it doesn’t matter anyway, because we're going to stop you once and for all.
