== Plot ==
Taking place after the events of Project Shadow, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow (who has gained back his memory) and newcomers Rouge the Bat and E-123 Omega are having a picnic on a hill on the 4th of July at 7:00 PM, watching as the fireworks start to rise in the sky. Along with the characters, the Master Emerald that Knuckles is guiding is there as well. At 8:00, the Master Emerald disappears from Knuckles' hands. The others try and help him look for it but are not able to find it. Rouge finds Doctor Ivo Robotnik (who is deceased)'s former robot henchman Egg Robo going in the Egg Mobile carrying the Master Emerald. Knuckles tries to beat up Egg Robo by punching him in his Egg Mobile and retrieving the Master Emerald, but just before Knuckles punches Egg Robo, the Master Emerald falls down and shatters into several pieces. Before anybody can react, the Master Emerald's shards are bought together and used to form a dimensional portal. Egg Robo is first sucked in and then Knuckles, Shadow, Amy, Omega, Tails, and Rouge. Sonic tries to run from the portal but is still swept. In the other universes, the others are also sucked in by the portal. Alex Kidd and his friend Patrick, Ecco the Dolphin and Grendor, Monkey, MeeMee, GonGon, and David, Rex and Tommy, and a new person, Nights. 
Sonic, E-123 Omega, and Shadow are transported to a grassland environmet. Omega reads his scanners and says that they are in the planet Mobius, a dwarf planet in the Solar System that is close enough to the sun to contain life on it. Just when Omega says this, Sonic and Shadow are greeted by several little animals. Shadow reports that they must find Rouge, Knuckles, Tails, and Amy before anything bad happens to them and they go on their quest. Alex Kidd and Patrick are transported in the middle of the ocean on a boat with a skeleton on it, now knowing that the boat was inhabited. They throw the skeleton off the boat and into the ocean and Patrick sees land. They both start paddling to land with Alex using his punching abilities to paddle faster. They paddle to a jungle. Deep in the jungle, Tommy and Rex have also been transported there, with Rex being mad that his suit has been ruined by the dirt. Tommy thinks that they are in the Amazon Jungle but they are disproved when Monkey comes swinging in with MeeMee, GonGon, and Mlike following him trying to stop him. Monkey treats Tommy and Rex as a threat (never seeing a human before) and start fighting them. Alex and Patrick see this but try to get away until Mlike sees them and starts chasing them until Alex punches Mlike down to the ground.
Nights, Amy, and Rouge are transported to the desert where they introduce each other to Nights. Nights is an Nightmaren from the mysterious world of Nightopia where she can speak some words. Nights is a they/them and cannot fly in the real world unlike in the dream world. Janken the Great, Alex Kidd's enemy, is also in the desert and assaults them telling them where he is. Amy and Rouge take the upper hand of Janken while Nights is afraid to fight someone. Just when they're about to beat him up, Egg Robo comes in and steals Janken away. Rouge comes up with the declaration that they have to find Sonic and the others. Amy and Nights are already starting to get sweaty so Rouge flys them across the desert. Ecco the Dolphin and Grendor the Old Fish are found in the desert lake by Nights. With their magical power, Nights give Grendor and Ecco the power to live on land and water. They both thank them and they continue on their quest. Sonic, Omega, and Shadow go across the ocean and find Monkey, MeeMee, GonGon, and Mlike. Unlike with Rex and Tommy, they befriend each other with them being antrophromorphic. At the desert where Amy, Rouge, Nights, Ecco, and Grendor are gone, Egg Robo and Janken the Great land at night. Janken and Egg Robo team up and then use Ivo's former badniks to build a base in the desert. Alex and Patrick, still on the jungle try to find a way out with Rex and Tommy who survived the attack with Monkey but run into Tails and David who introduce themselves. Sonic, Omega, and Shadow run into Tails and Knuckles and hug him while also saying hello to Alex, Patrick, Rex, and Tommy. Monkey, MeeMee, GonGon, and Mlike have stolen the trio's boat not knowing it was there and they sail to another place. Rex, David, and Tommy help Omega, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and Sonic build another boat. Nights, Amy, and Rouge are out in a grassland and find buildings which mean civillization. 
They're in a city called Mobia where they meet the mayor Wes Weasley. Monkey, MeeMee, and David lose sight of GonGon in the grassland and try searching for him. Mlike finds Mobia and starts flying toward it along with Monkey and Jessca. Janken the Great disscusses his plans to Egg Robo while Knuckles, Tails, Shadow, Sonic, and Omega try looking for the Master Emerald. Tommy explains that the Master Emerald has large amounts of radiation, which causes it to have the power to teleport through time and space. After a couple more minutes of searching, they finally find the Master Emerald which is still glowing. Janken the Great sends Egg Robo's badniks and his henchmen to intercept the Master Emerald from Knuckles, Shadow, Omega, and Sonic while Tommy and Rex are able to communicate with Earth once again to their worried mom/wife Lillian. MeeMee, GonGon, Monkey, and Mlike reunite with David in Mobia after the latter used his circus peforming skills to find them. Ecco and Grendor are captured by Janken and Egg Robo's henchmen and badniks and the other badniks intercept the others. Nights flies Rouge and Amy to safety while Shadow and Omega destroy the henchmen and badniks, respectively. Alex Kidd uses his long hands to punch the henchmen while Patrick also helps. Knuckles pounds them while Rex and Tommy shoot at them with her guns father and son style. Mobia is invaded by the badniks and Monkey uses his ball abilities to attack them while GonGon, MeeMee, and Mlike are protected. 
Many of Mobia's citizens are kidnapped by the badniks and henchmen and are forced into slavery. Ecco and Grendor are asked for questioning if they know about anybody else but they recall meeting Nights, Rouge, and Amy. Wes Weasley declares war on Egg Robo and Janken the Great and therefore sends out his FBI soldiers to go after them. Ecco and Grendor are electrocuted and Ecco screams so loud that the soldiers are able to track down where they are. Janken and Egg Robo are arrested. Sonic, Tails. Shadow, Omega, and Knuckles meet up in Mobia where they confront Monkey, MeeMee, GonGon, and Mlike for leaving them alone with Alex Kidd and Patrick in the jungle. Alex and Patrick come there as well as Rex and Tommy, where they try to get used to the Mobian life style. Egg Robo says he knows about Sonic, Shadow, and Knuckles and says that they were involved in the crime too. Weasley arrests them and puts them on the airship too. However, Egg Robo's plan is in position as he and Janken send their most strongest badnik, Shortfuse the Cybernik. Shortfuse attacks the entire airship but Omega gets up onto the airship and starts shooting and fighting Shortfuse. While Sonic and Tails try to escape, Knuckles and Shadow fight Shortfuse with Omega. During this, Tails builds several pieces of scrap together along with screwdrivers, wrenches, and technology and is able to create Shortfuse's rival, Vermin the Cybernik, who teams up with Omega. Vermin, Omega, and Shortfuse all have a brawl until Janken the Great's henchmen come and the fight expands. Egg Robo and Janken escape during this time and send their badniks out to Mobia to destroy it and enslave it civillians. One of the badniks pilots the airship to an ocean. 
Rouge, Amy, and Nights are on a cruise to Mobian Island, a harmonic utopia while the badnik tries to crash the airship onto the cruise but Shadow comes and stops him in time. Sonic reunites with Rouge and Amy while questioning who Nights is. Shadow and Tails tell them about Janken and Egg Robo's plan to destroy Mobia while Egg Robo reveals his plan to Janken to destroy Mobia and rebuild it as "EggmanLand" in memory of Ivo Robotnik. Janken calls Egg Robo stupid and disagrees with his decision. Janken has a plan to rule the entirety of Mobius and make it his own planet. Egg Robo and Janken argue until Janken kicks Egg Robo off his plane to operate his plan to make his own planet. Tommy and Rex try to shoot Egg Robo but he escapes just in time. Grendor and Ecco were also able to escape, making it through the ocean. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, Omega, Rouge, and Nights make their way to Mobia where they find it being destroyed. Wes Weasley asks them to help and they do. Thus, Knuckles, Sonic, Tails, Shadow, Amy, Omega, Nights, Tommy, Rouge, Rex, Alex, Patrick, Monkey, MeeMee, GonGon, Mlike, Ecco, and Grendor use their mighty powers to destroy the badniks. Lots of fighting ensues with Nights being able to use her powers, flying directly into badniks and such. During this, Omega beats the sh*t out of Egg Robo and calls him a puny god. Janken is chased down by Sonic into space where they have an epic battle. On Janken's plane, Sonic rips the door open and fights Janken physically. This continues until they encounter a small black hole, which is very big to them. Janken's airplane is instantly sucked into the black hole. Sonic tries to run in space at the speed of sound but because of Janken's weight on top of him trying to survive, he cannot. 
Sonic puts so much pressure into his speed that he starts screaming and is able to run faster then the speed of light, so fast that he goes around the sun and eventually around the earth. He goes back to Mobius but Janken the Great is sucked into the black hole, killing him. Sonic, falling down to Earth at a very high speed, thinks he is going to die and closes his eyes and accepts his fate. Not until Vermin the Cybernik comes in just in time to save Sonic, leaving everybody happy. Wes Weasley the Mayor thanks Sonic and the others for their heroic actions and the townsfolk say that they will always remember them. With the power of the Master Emerald, everybody waves goodbye to each other including Nights to Rouge and Amy. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, Rouge, Omega, Egg Robo, and newcomer Vermin go back to Earth while Ecco and Grendor also go back to Earth, Tommy and Rex go back to Earth as well reuniting with Lillian who was worried sick about them. Monkey, MeeMee, GonGon, David (who was cowardly not fighting but got to do something with some of the badniks), and Mlike go back to their alternate version of Earth with animals, Alex and Patrick go back to Earth, while Nights goes back to her land of Nightopia. On Earth, when Egg Robo thinks he'll get off scot-free, Knuckles notices him getting away and the gang go after him while Sonic rests on a hill with Tails and Vermin.
