Knuckles agrees to aid him suppressing the fear that the Floating Island will be left unprotected. Knuckles and Sonic locate the power source only to have it taken by Sleet and Dingo before the Hedgehogs can reach it.

==Quotes==
: Aleena (narrating): When the sun is shining and the day is beautiful, even the bravest of us need to get away from our troubles.
: Jules (narrating): But we must never forget that doom hangs above our heads...
: Sonia: [sighs] This is the life! Sun, surf... and no old Buttnik to worry about. We needed a little rest and relaxation... [a frisbee soars past] Huh? [Sonic speeds along] Hey! You're getting me all gritty!
: Sonic: Uh! [yawns] Hm. Okay, gotta go! [catches the frisbee] Do I really think I can beat myself? Course I do! Try catchin' this one!
: Manic: [strains] Phew! Whoa, jackpot! My day has just been made in the shade. Can you dig it? Two Mobiums! [Sonic approaches fast] Ahh!
: Sonic: [wolf whistles] Fan-cy! [the frisbee hits him in the head] Oof! Hey, who's the wise guy? Oh yeah, I'm the wise guy. [a shadow covers them] Okay, who turned out the lights?
: Sonia: Uh-oh! Something tells me we've got a Buttnik on the horizon.
: Sonic: Bail, sibs! [gets covered in sand] [coughs] Looks like our vacation's just been sandblasted!
: Manic: Well, at least it's not a total loss.
: Sonia: Heads up! They're getting ready to fire again!
: Robotnik: Blast Sonic and his siblings back to the pre-Mobian age! [laughs heartily]
: Sleet: Excellent shooting, your rotundness. Dingo and I should have no trouble scooping up those hedgehogs for you.
: Robotnik: Oh, come off it! My Fortress of Altitude can take care of a trio of troublesome hedgehogs without your help!
: Sonic: We'd better grab the van and vamoose outta here! [gets in the van and drives into a forest] This forest oughta give us some protection. No way they can see us under these trees!
----
: Knuckles: Sonic? Manic? Sonia? What are you doing here? You could've been blasted to bits!
: Sonic: Yeah, thanks for almost blowin' us outta the sky(!)
: Manic: The round dude's built himself one seriously bad flying fortress!
: Sonia: And we think it may be powered by a Chaos Emerald.
: Knuckles: A Chaos Emerald?!
: Sonic: Yeah, is it possible that more than one Chaos Emerald exists?
: Knuckles: They're rare, but if Buttnik's got his hands on one, he could be unstoppable!
: Sonic: That's why we need your help, big guy!
: Knuckles: I'd like to help, but my first duty is to protect the Floating Island. I can't go chasin' all over Mobius! I gotta take care of my own people.
: Sonia: Hey, wait a minute! You're a part of Mobius. If it goes, so does your precious island!
: Manic: True, and you're the only dude who knows the skinny on Chaos Emeralds.
: Knuckles: I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do.
:Sonic, Sonia and Manic: But, Knuckles...
: Knuckles: All right, enough! I'll do it! I'll help you.
: Sonic: I knew you couldn't resist a good Buttnik kickin'!
: Knuckles: Flaps: check! Rudder: check! Tires: check! Oil: check!
: Athair: Knuckles...
: Knuckles: In a minute. Extra little bags of in-flight peanuts: check!
: Athair: Knuckles, listen to me.
: Knuckles: All right, already! I'm all ears. [turns around] Great grandpa Athair! Is that you?
: Athair: You must not leave the Floating Island.
: Knuckles: Why? But I promised my friends! Buttnik has to be stopped!
: Athair: Great grandson, you have been warned. If you leave the Floating Island, all of Mobius could be destroyed. The fate of Mobius is in your hands.
: Knuckles: Great grandfather, what can I do to protect both Mobius and my friends?
: Athair: There may be a way. The future can be changed. The fate of Mobius depends on your decision.
: Knuckles: Great grandfather- [Athair vanishes] Wait! Don't leave!
: Manic: Yo, who are you talkin' to, Knuckles?
: Knuckles: Ah, er, no one. Hope I'm doin' the right thing!
: Sonic: Then let's haul haunch!
