===Plot===
Sonic, Shadow, and Silver are wondering around Empire City at night when they come across a statue of Chip by a golden statue, when Sonic gets near it, the statue breaks apart revealing Chip, asleep and hungry as ever. Chip easily recognizes Sonic and before either of them could explain themselves to Shadow and Silver, gunfire and monsters nearby. Upon investigation, Tails is seen shooting at Freaks. Sonic, Shadow, and Silver beat up the monsters. Knuckles and Amy arrive, upset that they "Missed the Show". Soon after, Dark Gaia pulses from the weakened monsters and surrounds Sonic, Tails, Shadow, Knuckles, and Amy. Sonic. Knuckles, and Amy assume their were forms, but Shadow and Tails remain the same and the monsters die. Knuckles and Amy freak out, but Sonic questions why there are Gaia monsters when Dark Gaia was sealed away five months prior. Chip explains to Knuckles and Amy that absorbing Dark Gaia turns the host into a monster.Shadow and Tails begin wondering why they weren't transformed. Chip goes on to say that this only applies to those without darkness in their hearts, this triggers Tails's attention, claiming to have no darkness in his heart. Eggman bots show a short time later with rocket guns and tasers and capture Amy, Sonic and Knuckles smash the remaining robots and then run after the others. over at Eggman's base, Amy is being interrogated, thinking she knows why freaks are showing up everywhere and why she is a werehog. Sonic, Knuckles, and Chip show up, Eggman runs off, afraid seeing that both Sonic and Knuckles are in were form, leaving Amy behind. meanwhile Team Dark and Silver find that the variant of the monsters from earlier are humans infected by Dark Gaia before getting into a fight, however, Silver chickens out and uses Chaos Control to get away, accidently dropping his Chaos Emerald. Team dark beats up the monsters, however one is left standing, knocks Shadow away and tries to kill Rouge but gets gunned down by Tails. Rouge, Omega, and Shadow get up, surprised, at this point, Tails turns Black and his eyes go blank (Dark Tails). Sonic Knuckles and Amy show up and also question what Tails did. Chip takes them to a temple and explains that Dark Gaia is releasing Dark Gaia Energy onto the surface and any human who takes in this energy will become a freak, When Dark Gaia is defeated, all energy on the planet except for the energy inside others is returned to Dark Gaia and sealed away. The energy inside people must then be returned or it will remain on Earth forever and the temple they are in can prevent that: when all Chaos Emeralds are on the alter, it will trigger a fail safe mechanism to remove Dark Gaia Energy from anything on Earth and seal it away, when at least one is on the table, anyone who touches the alter has Dark Gaia energy removed from them.. When Shadow places his Chaos Emerald on the table, he has the Dark Gaia energy inside him removed. From there they group splits up and hunt for the remaining Chaos Emeralds. In the Hero Story Sonic will occasionally team up with Espio to clear out Dark Gaia Monsters. Near the end of the Last Story, Tails ends up betraying the group and knocks Team Dark unconscious and steals the Chaos Emeralds from the Pedestal, attempting to wake up Dark Gaia and absorb his remaining Energy. Sonic, Knuckles, and Amy arrive at the Temple to find Dark Gaia has awoken and Tails has absorbed a large amount of him. Shadow gets back the Chaos Emeralds from Tails and transforms into Super Shadow. Sonic assumes his Super Transformation as well and Light Gaia joins the fight, but they couldn't stop Dark Gaia. At the last Second Silver uses Chaos Control to defeat Dark Gaia and seals him away yet again. Tails steps up to Sonic,Shadow, and Silver and attacks. Winning or losing this battle will result in to different endings. In the Good Ending, Sonic places the Chaos Emeralds on the alter, removing the Dark Gaia Energy from everybody and sealing it away and returning Tails to his normal self, before he runs off to "take care of some things". In the Evil Ending, Shadow and Silver are killed and Sonic is able to do nothing but beg for mercy, at this point G.U.N. Units appear behind Tails, along with Amy, Knuckles, Espio, and Chip. Tails kills the soldiers as the screen fades black (Knuckles, Espio, Amy, and Chip are implied to be killed as well).
