==Plot==
(Sonic's gang return to their timeline at Sparky's lab in Android Alley at Teknee after a long world testing run, joined by Alternate Tawna)
*Sonic: We're back. Good to be fit in square.
*Crash: Ah.
*Coco: Welcome back you guys.
*Aku Aku: We finally made it back. And I thought hanging out with another Sonic was wacky.
*Sparky: I was observing the worlds where you guys are running. I manage to try to get you guys back until I stumble the wrong world with another one of you in a nearby forest.
*Alternate Tawna: We don't need anymore cocky hedgehogs when we already have one on the team.
*Crunch: Wait, who is that?
*Tawna: Is that me?!
*Alternate Tawna: I'm you from another timeline. Can you hit a nickel with a dime?
*Tawna: No. You're just messing with the wrong person.
*Alternate Tawna: Ha. We just met.
*Cindy: Whoa, another Tawna. Thought it was a stand-in or another actor at first.
*Chel: She look almost like a rock star biker from a 1985 film about bats.
*Tails: Where are these strangers coming from?
*Lani-Loli: Say, you're not from another this timeline, are you?
*Alternate Tawna: I just said it. I'm from a alternate universe where things are twisted and the future is not looking bright as planned.
*Crash: *hug Alternate Tawna* Ah ha.
*Alternate Tawna: I still love you Crash.
*Tawna: He's my Crash! What are you talking about? Get your own!
*Alternate Tawna: I used to have Crash, but I lost my Crash at my timeline in the hands of a sadistic conquer.
*Tawna: Oh, that sucks for you.
*Alternate Tawna: It sucks than losing my Coco as well in the same world.
*Tails: Really. So Sparky, how did the test did for them?
*Sparky: The test went very well. They went to various timelines in each worlds. Most of them are unique, crazy and serious with a lot of worldbuilding. I'm very proud of my testers that I should do this again with my people someday in the coming days.
*Lani-Loli: Oh sweet. *watch the screens* But right now, *shocked* THE CITY IS UNDER ATTACK!
*Sparky: The what? *watch the news to see the report on Geary and his army invading Android Alley*
*Robot Reporter: *on TV* Breaking news. Android Alley is under attack by the hands of Teknee champion Geary. He and his friends are out of control are going on a rampage to shoot any individual on the streets. With the wrath of Velo in our gears, what can go wrong with our body parts.
*Geary: *shoot everywhere* Where are the Freedom Fighters?! They must be destroyed!
*Robot Reporter: This is Harry reporting live. Protect your friends and families and hide in the closet! *get shot by Geary, ending his live with a "Please Stand By" screen*
*Sonic: He's here.
*Coco: Geary and his friends are storming the whole alley to track us all down.
*Crunch: How did they know we're here by one location of a address?
*Alternate Tawna: You know how out of control they are when they want to get rid of us like garbage.
*Tawna: The Emperor Velo guy is always up to something. And the worse of all, the Nocturnus Clan under the hands of Ix. One more guy down and we're ready to fight the whole army like killing the steak.
*Amy: *hear some noise breaking* I hear a little break on the noise.
*Knuckles: Someone's coming.
*Yaya: It's him. I can feel it.
*Geary: *break through the door and show up with his army* I found you all!
*Yaya: There he is!
*Sonic: Geary. We finally met.
*Knuckles: The golden metal man. How are you?
*Geary: Pretty weird. Alright. Hands up where I can see them. Don't let me shoot you like targets.
*Sonic: Whoa, hey, take a chill pill. Are you acting like cops on this one?
*Geary: Don't make me call the sheriff on you.
*Crash: Uh oh.
*Aku Aku: I am feeling embarrassed in front of the robots.
*Cleaning Bot #1: We still got you surrounded.
*Cleaning Bot #2: No one is going anywhere without a arrest.
*Sparky: I'm sorry. You cannot trespass my lab without answering the door or sneaking in without knowing each other.
*Cleaning Bot #3: Face it wise bot. You're no better.
*Lani-Loli: *see the ceiling cutting in half* What the whip? *see the ceiling break apart as Ix, Shade and Belle show up* Oh no!
*Ix: *land on the ground* My friends. I missed you all. Are you waiting for another challenge in the android city?
*Knuckles: Ix. What do you want?
*Shade: *land on the floor with her team* Hey there, Knucklehead. Missed me?
*Knuckles: No. You're here for another rematch and you're gaining attention for yourself.
*Tails: I think we made a retribution here.
*Belle: Hi. Who want to play with me?
*Sonic: Belle, I should have known by this. You shouldn't be working with the Eggman Empire after reforming your ways.
*Belle: I'm always on control. I'd love to have another challenge with you after a meet up in Barin. You know, face-to-face and doing a freestyle fight is always like training in the battlefield.
*Sonic: Belle, stay out of this. Ix, Eggman and Cortex are doing this to brainwash your system just to kill us all like targets.
*Belle: I don't care. I'm always on point to fight you guys like targets.
*Sparky: This is an emergency. I'm going to call the security to arrest Geary and his authorities. *press the alarm button*
*Geary: You can't arrest us all. What should we do now?
*Ix: I'll say, let's melee.
*Sonic: Let's see what you are made of.
*Ix: You got gifts, I got gifts. We all got gifts. But the darkest gifts will preserve you to the end of the road. *shoot dark lasers at Sonic*
*Sonic: *block the attack* Hey.
*Ix: Charge! *his group clash with the Freedom Fighters*
*Sonic: *fight Ix* Give up now. You're finished.
*Ix: Not this time. *hit Sonic*
*Cindy: *shoot at the Cleaning Bots* Keep shooting these cleaning bots out. They're everywhere just to suck us up like dust.
*Chel: No one is getting sucked into the dust bag today. *continue shooting*
*Crash: *run and hit Geary* Grrr.
*Geary: Hey, watch it bandicoot! I'm trying to hit you!
*Coco: We got you this time Geary. *slap Geary*
*Geary: My head! *Coco kick him* Ooh. My robotic guts.
*Crunch: Don't forget your favorite punishment! *punch Geary*
*Geary: No! I will not lose to a Earthling today!
*Tawna: Stand back. This is the end of the line for you, gold bot. *shoot plasma balls at Geary*
*Geary: Prepare the sucking. *hold his Soap Sprinkler*
*Tawna: Oh no. Don't tell me he's going to use his Soap Sprinkler on us.
*Crunch: This really sucks the beat.
*Geary: Time to suck up the soap! *use the Soap Sprinkler to try suck up the bandicoots*
*Crash: Ah!
*Coco: Move back!
*Geary: Ha ha ha ha ha! Eat my dust!
*Alternate Tawna: Not today! *throw a bomb at Geary*
*Geary: *the bomb blast him through the wall* Son of a gear.
*Lani-Loli: *phase blocks to block the cleaning bots* Ah ha.
*Akano: *slam the cleaning bots* Pow!
*Kupana-Wa: *slow down time* Ika-Ika, now.
*Ika-Ika: Upside down. *flip as everyone go up and down*
*Sonic: What was that?
*Ix: I'm trying to fight here. *shoot Ika-Ika*
*Kupana-Wa: Ika-Ika!
*Knuckles: Hey! You can't do that to one of our masks! *Shade trip him over* Hey.
*Shade: Are you forgetting about me?
*Knuckles: I'm not going to turn back a heroic side without a villain fight. *fight Shade*
*Belle: It's play time! *fight Tails and Amy*
*Tails: Snap out of it Belle!
*Amy: What is wrong with you?! *hit Belle with her hammer*
*Belle: I'm dizzy. Dizzy!
*Tails: *push Belle* You don't wanna do this, do you?
*Belle: Of course not.
*Amy: What did Eggman and Cortex put into her system?
*Tails: I don't know. She's only a ordinary Badnik made from wood and all the metal wouldn't strap her from becoming evil.
*Geary: *fight Crash* What kind of bandicoot are you? Aren't you suppose to be a racer?
*Crash: Ah-woo! *slap Geary*
*Geary: My head!
*Sparky: *shoot Geary* Don't worry friends. I got the psycho.
*Ix: *use his staff to open up the portals* Ah, worlds. This just in, a new Nocturnus War will rise.
*Sonic: Uh uh. *curl as a ball to destroy the buttons to shut down the portals*
*Ix: No! That was my conquest plan!
*Sonic: Not anymore! *punch Ix out of the lab and chase Ix to fight him*
*Alternate Tawna: Where is the blue hedgehog going?
*Aku Aku: I have to watch him. *fly through the hole*
(Sonic fight Ix all over Android Alley by breaking through buildings and blasting through walls and floating platforms as Sonic curl as a ball to hit Ix many times and crash through the train tracks with Aku Aku following them on the fight)
*Ix: Young man, you will never beat me to death.
*Sonic: Oh yes I will. I'm powerful, just like you. *glow and punch Ix through the train tracks and punch him through the stairs*
*Aku Aku: Sonic, where are you?
*Sonic: *run and fight Ix all over the city as he jump to slam Ix through the buildings* Yeah! *fly and punch Ix three times into Sparky's lab*
(Buildings are starting to fall apart as the heroes are fighting Geary's army, only for the lab to fall off)
*Tails: The labs' breaking apart.
*Knuckles: We must go.
*Shade kick him* Ugh.
*Shade: Game over echidna.
*Tangle: No. *punch Shade*
*Nestor: I got the bots. *use his staff to break every cleaning bot*
*Geary: My cleaning bots! You won't get away! *escape on a hovercraft*
*Omochao: Geary is getting away!
*Sparky: That's my hovercraft! We must get out as fast as we can!
*Alternate Tawna: Let's go. *her group escape the lab*
*Belle: Don't leave! You have time to play with me!
(Ix get up from the lab as Sonic shows up, forming in his semi-super form as Aku Aku watches just as Ix glows and fight Sonic all over the lab as Sonic kick Ix in the sky for him to fly and beat him up through the planet as they crash at Assembly Lane, a polluted factory with oil machines, pipes and mud on the ground)
*Sonic: This place really stinks.
*Ix: You're not giving up on me, are you?
*Sonic: Of course not. I just want to kick your shiny coat 'til the end of the road. *power up and fight Ix*
*Ix: Let's get serious. *blast Sonic at the oil machines as the hedgehog run and hit him through the conveyor belt and all the gears in the factory*
(Sonic continue to fight Ix as the hedgehog dig underground, only to blast Ix at Magnetic Mayhem as the hedgehog flies and fight Ix through the conveyor belt and the machines, only to blast the place and fight all over the planet until heading through Electron Avenue and back at Android Alley. The Freedom Fighters continue to fight Shade, Belle, Geary and the Cleaning Bots as Sonic and Ix show up crashing through the street with the cars crashed together.)
*Robot #1: Hey! Look what you did to my car?!
*Robot #2: Moron!
*Robot #3: I just paid nine thousand dollars for a car! You're paying me back!
*Sonic: Gears and machines. What did we do wrong?
*Ix: Hedgehog, you will prevail me as a god of the clan. I will send in my friends to destroy the whole planet and take over to turn it into a flying warship.
*Sonic: You're turning a planet into a warship? Really? Is that what you're gonna do to send your troops to invade a robot planet?
*Ix: That's all I can do to bring in my troops to take over Teknee. See for yourself. *open up a portal to bring in the Marauder Scouts to invade the city*
*Robot #4: Aliens!
*Robot #5: Run!
*Sonic: What did you do?!
*Ix: I am the most powerful echidna in all the worlds and you can't stop me by providing your wisdoms into my guts. Enjoy your playtime while you can. *punch Sonic through a car*
*Tails: Sonic!
*Knuckles: Most of the Nocturnus Clan have showed up to volunteer on invading Teknee. This is horrible. *Shade kicked him* Dude.
*Shade: Are you forgetting about our fight?
*Jewel: We'll take down Geary's army and the clan at the same time. Come on. *punch and kick every cleaning bot and Marauder Scout*
*Whisper: Don't worry blade. Whisper got you for a slashing. *use her blade to slash the cleaning bots and Marauder Scouts*
*Sparky: *shoot at the cleaning bots* I love to volunteer to fight evil!
*Geary: *shoot everywhere* Die you fake machines! Burn in dust!
*Tails: *fight Belle* Come on Belle. Make it stop.
*Belle: Today was suppose to be a happy day. *shoot plasma at Tails*
*Tails: Hey.
*Amy: Snap out of it Belle! *hit Belle with her hammer*
*Belle: Ow, my brain.
*Amy: Aren't you a robot?
*Tails: Your brain must be a little chip like what all the Badniks got in their DNAs.
*Crash: *spin at all the cleaning bots* Wee!
*Coco: Way a go Crash. You defeat them all.
*Crunch: *smash a cleaning bot* Bang! I'm smarter than a ship's anchor.
*Tawna: You compare yourself to a object? What's next? A power crystal?
*Crunch: I got all the power crystals attached to my body to power up like the mobians.
*Geary: You son of clutches. You killed all of my cleaning bots. Now I'm going to throw you into the garbage dump! *use his hose to power up* Ho ho ho!
*Alternate Tawna: Two times the Tawna are coming in to fight. Come on, let's kick some droid.
*Tawna: Time to beat up the android. *shoot at Geary*
*Geary: Oof, oof, ow. That tickles. Stop it you agent.
*Alternate Tawna: Judge me by my size, didn't you? *kick Geary*
*Geary: My head! It twist like a toy. *twist his head* Much better.
*Sonic: *get up* Man, you are really destroying the universe with your clan.
*Ix: *control Sonic* That's right. I am not just a nobody. I am a echidna warrior, a god and a conquer. I will take over all the planets in all the universes and take over the whole multiverse as well as recreating the omniverse under our image. Your enemies and your friends' enemies will be joining our Nocturnus Clan to rebuild what the Knuckles Clan and all the echidna clans have started in Mobius in all of our years of conquest, exploring and fighting for justice. You are only a trainee to prove that you are no hero like my father.
*Sonic: Your father was also a murderous warlord who enslaved every wolf in their tribe at South Island.
*Ix: Liar! You were never here for your ancestors. Your power belong to me and will be stored to my staff to destroy Mobius. *use his staff to drain Sonic's powers*
*Sonic: Ah. I don't feel so good. Wait, you're taking my powers.
*Ix: That's right. After all these years of running away from power-hungry forces, this is the moment where you meet the fierce warrior that absorb people powers to transfer into another user. I can feel the speed in you.
*Sonic: No. I can't even feel the fur on my head. My brain, my memories. Stop! You don't know what you're doing.
*Ix: Make me you young speedster.
*Yaya: *fight every Marauder Scout* There's so many of them! It's like all of their brothers and sisters are involved in the war.
*Coco: *slam down Geary and hit him in the car* Aku Aku, send in the Quantum Masks!
*Aku Aku: You should have said it earlier. Quantum Masks, assist them with maximum power.
*Lani-Loli: Maximum power coming up! *posses Crash*
*Crash: Ah ha. *phase the boxes to block the Marauder Scouts*
*Akano: Ooh, yeah. *posses Coco*
*Coco: Let's spin. *spin at Geary*
*Geary: *spin* You're making me spin.
*Coco: You actually spinning.
*Geary: Huh? You started spinning first. Cheater!
*Kupana-Wa: Let's freeze some time, chunky bandicoot! *posses Crunch*
*Crunch: Ha. I like the way I move. Time's up! *freeze time and move towards Geary to kick him as he unfreeze time*
*Geary: My robotic tenders! Machines will always win! *slap Crunch*
*Crunch: Oof.
*Ika-Ika: Are you forgetting about me?
*Tawna: You tell me.
*Ika-Ika: Let's flip around. *posses Tawna*
*Tawna: *flip around with Geary to fight* Is there a problem with your head?
*Geary: You are flipping back and forth!
*Tawna: It all started by me. *punch Geary through the road and land down*
*Geary: Oh. My head. Not stable on my system.
*Alternate Tawna: *use her hook to hit every Marauder Scout* Mind as well take down these clones.
*Tawna: I got a better trick. *flip as she make the Marauder Scout flip up and down with Aku Aku lasering at the troops*
*Aku Aku: Yeah. There's more! *shoot plasma at the Marauder Scouts*
*Yaya: Whoa! It's like we have a tower defense to shoot all the intruders at the fort.
*Sonic: *still on Ix's control with his power draining* How much further you want to drain my power?
*Ix: I'll wait a little more 'til I become intense and powerful like a beast!
*Sonic: You're doing this for so long. I feel weak and will become old, like a man.
*Ix: You're not going to be a elder. I'm just going to take your power and use it from my staff.
*Sonic: Guys... help... anyone... anybody... nobody...
*Crash: *shocked* Ah!
*Coco: Sonic's in trouble.
*Alternate Tawna: His power is being absorbed by a wicked wizard.
*Tawna: Crunch, you have the time mask. Go save him!
*Crunch: Slo no mo. *freeze time and try to get Sonic out of Ix's powers* Come on. Push like the wisdom teeth is coming out of your mouth.
*Ix: *glow and grab Crunch* Hey.
*Crunch: Hey, what?
*Sonic: Eek!
*Ix: Leave, him, alone!
*Crunch: Stop that.
*Ix: You stop that first.
*Crunch: Give me the hedgehog!
*Ix: His power belong to me.
*Sonic: *glow and turn to his dark form, blasting Ix out of the city*
*Crunch: *unfreeze time* What the what did you do?
*Sonic: Don't worry. I already got the freak.
*Crunch: You changed again.
*Sonic: It's just my dark form. That's what happen when I get nervous and turn dark with dark matter from my Chaos energy.
*Tails: *use a blaster to shoot at Belle* I hate to do this to you Belle.
*Belle: We were friends.
*Amy: Just frenemies.
*Belle: But we were best friends. *Whisper slashed her*
*Whisper: Not anymore.
*Tails: Whisper!
*Whisper: *shut off Belle* I shut her off while we'll fix her to the good side after the fight.
*Amy: You actually killed her.
*Whisper: What the... Did I...?
*Tangle: You don't have to do this.
*Jewel: Killing her is wrong. She has good on her side.
*Whisper: I should have cut her off head like a puppet.
*Tangle: Whisper.
*Jewel: Just stop.
*Whisper: *try to kill Belle and refuse* Fine. I know Eggman and Cortex are trying to use her as a weapon to execute us all. She's innocent, her creators are not.
*Tails: Heads up. I got you back, Whisper.
*Amy: She didn't have to do all of this if it weren't for the Eggman Empire. once we fix her, she'll be on our side.
*Jewel: But what if she turned evil again with the darkness inside her?
*Whisper: I hope it won't happen again once the fear in her won't come back.
*Tangle: We should take her in custody just in case something bad happen to her.
*Knuckles: *fight Shade all over the streets* Come on. What are you waiting on?
*Shade: I am so good at punching you. *punch and kick Knuckles*
*Knuckles: *throw some cars at Shade* I'm gonna whip your mask!
*Shade: *throw a car at Knuckles* Eat this car!
*Knuckles: *destroy a car* I am not a robot to chew on like a button. I'm here to beat you.
*Shade: *fight Knuckles* Why are we doing this?
*Knuckles: You know, your master is using you to destroy us all.
*Shade: That's not true at all. *jump high* Hyaaaaa! *destroy the street by stomping Knuckles all over the ground*
*Knuckles: You flicked too hard! *curl as a ball and blast Shade all the way down in the deep of Android Alley through the alley*
*Shade: Damn it. You made us fall through the deep.
*Knuckles: That's the garbage side. *hold Shade and place her on the wall* Okay, now talk!
*Shade: You're choking on me.
*Knuckles: I don't care. As long as you speak, tell us why you were sent by Ix to kill me.
*Shade: You been asking this question many times and I don't want to hear it. *kick Knuckles and strap him* I was brainwashed.
*Knuckles: The what? You're lying. This is how I roll to liars. *charge* Hurrah! *roll to hit Shade through the wall*
*Shade: Enough! No more fighting.
*Knuckles: How come? I was ready to finish you off.
*Shade: Listen! I don't know where I came from. I was taken, slaughtered, bashed, controlled and chained by the hands of Ix's power.
*Knuckles: I lost everything because of the wars and bad leaders. I was about to finish my greatest quest to get the emeralds until changing my ways.
*Shade: Let me ask the question. Where are you from?
*Knuckles: I'm from a village. It been a long story since I missed my tribe after the war in Angel Island.
(Few years ago, a group of echidnas are in their village, holding up spears, creating masks, building tents and explaining the hut with fences and trees on their side. A echidna warrior and his wife birth a kid together to train at the garden.)
*Knuckles: *narrate* Long ago, I was raised in a group of echidnas, protecting with life and defending from fierce and strong warriors across the planet. Here, my father Locke and my mother Lara-Le raised me to be a warrior and to be part of the Brotherhood of Guardians team. *train with Locke and Lara-Le on the garden* Me, my dad and mom trained all day in the garden by kicking spears, knocking out wood and cutting rocks in little chunk of pieces.
(A group of dark echidnas show up to clash in with the echidna tribe as Locke's tribe clash with the dark echidnas with Lara-Le protecting Knuckles as the dark echidnas show up for a fight)
*Knuckles: *narrate* War broke out. They found us. They found the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emeralds and we have to fight against it. My father did his very best to fight the bad guys in order to protect our tribe from bad people alike. My mother stayed with me as she have to protect me from the dark echidnas and took the soul, heart and blood off our village. Then.... came a long tragedy.
(The dark echidnas slashed Lara-Le as Locke call out for his wife to slash the dark echidnas, only to be killed by them as Knuckles run off with the village burning down from the dark echidnas with some escaping and some being killed by the flames)
*Knuckles: *narrate* I lost my mother. Father called for help to look out for me and didn't make it in time. It was a terrible day for all echidnas. Everyone died and I survived by escaping. I was the only echidna left in the world, trying to search for food and gem to survive in become the greatest warrior in the galaxy. All I did was fighting and training to get my revenge on the fierce warriors of all Mobius to make my ancestors proud.
(Knuckles found a hideout to live, make a campfire to cook some fried fruit, collect the diamonds and train by punching logs, trees, plants, rocks and using a spear to kill off the bears, moles and raccoons. Knuckles grew up by running, smashing grounds and tearing up mountains as he run all the way to Angel Island only to be encountered by Dr. Eggman.)
*Knuckles: *narrate* I grew up. I did all the best training I can do to become the most powerful warrior of all echidnas in the galaxy. Then I met the doctor in a red coat who would later be my ally, only to be betrayed to work with the hedgehog and fox in later years while forming a league together.
(Knuckles' backstory ended as he and Shade feel emotional after the events at Knuckles' village)
*Shade: It's like I lost all of my friends including my family.
*Knuckles: Same here. I could never see my tribe again after the war with the bad echidnas. They should have learned a favor on how to not interact with the power of the emeralds.
*Shade: I have a similar backstory to yours and it is terrible.
*Knuckles: Oh, no. I don't wanna hear it.
*Shade: You should hear it as much I warned you.
*Knuckles: Fine. Make it quick. I wonder what your backstory is like.
*Shade: It's an emotional one as much I lost everything from my old village.
(A flashback shows a young Shade in her village with echidnas guarding through the gates and walking with spears with Shade's parents raising Shade by feeding lot of grapes and watermelon as well training for battle)
*Shade: My village was like a paradise to the tribe. Echidnas guarded everything in their path with no intruders to come and find. I lived a wonderful life with my parents and ate lot of fruits including grapes and my personal favorite, watermelon. We also train every day to prepare for battle just in case a bad person come this way for a fight.
(One day, Ix lead his Nocturnus Clan to battle against Shade's tribe as the tribe shoot spears and arrows toward the armored marauders with Ix using his staff to destroy homes with Shade's parents leaving Shade behind as they go out to fight Ix, only to be killed by Ix's staff as the echidna lord show up with Shade to give her a gift of a watch and raise her to join his Nocturnus Clan by training in recent years until gaining a armored suit to fit her liking to other members of the marauders)
*Shade: After all of this good life, came a war in which involved the Nocturnus Clan to invade as many tribes as they want. They attacked the guardians, securities and protectors in the village as the warlord destroy many homes in his path. My parents left me behind so they can fight Ix in battle to save their home and somehow, they lost. The warlord show up to me on where are my parents. He told me that they were killed by intruders as he use the staff on me to brainwash my memories and joined him to be a part of the Nocturnus Clan. I trained for all of my life before gaining a armor suit to fit my liking to the other members of the marauders and step up to rule with Ix to set up a invasion on Mobius.
(The flashback ends as Knuckles comfort Shade over the lost of her village, her parents and all of her friends that were killed by Ix)
*Knuckles: It hurt so much when I saw the death of my father and mother. It's like I never see them again after a invasion.
*Shade: I never got to see my parents again after Ix came to power by killing all the echidna tribes from one war with the rise of Chaos. Plus, I lost all of my friends due to Ix's invasion.
*Knuckles: At least centuries later, Chaos emerged out of the Master Emerald with a flooded invasion on Earth as Sonic save the day by sucking Chaos back into the Master Emerald after the events in the city.
*Shade: So what did you do to the Master Emerald afterwards?
*Knuckles: I held it back to the shrine of the altar on Angel Island as I started to reside on the floating island to protect the giant emerald to prevent any powerful forces and intruders from trying to steal the emerald for evil.
*Shade: The Master Emerald must have gotten a new home to prevent from bad guys from claiming it.
*Knuckles: As the Master Emerald stays where it belongs, it never going to be taken out by any tribe or a power-hungry villain. *hear sounds of Ix's power* Did you hear that?
*Shade: It's the sound of Ix. Still fighting against your allies.
*Knuckles: He's still not done yet, but he's about to blast a single critical hit from his staff.
*Shade: Come on. We can still beat Warlord Ix together.
*Knuckles: Wait, you're going to betray Ix for me?
*Shade: It doesn't matter. We can stop him together with your friends.
*Knuckles: Alright. *climb up the wall* Back to the streets!
*Shade: *climb up the wall* No more waiting for excuses.
(Back at the streets of Android Alley, the Freedom Fighters are still fighting Geary's army and most of the Nocturnus Clan as a powerful wave is about to glow in much of the heroes' attention)
*Sonic: He's coming back. I can feel it.
*Geary: What are you all looking at?
*Cindy: I can see sense some stranger danger from here.
*Chel: The wizard is coming back towards our block.
*Sonic: *see a big blast with Ix coming out of the buildings* Is he not dead yet?
*Ix: I AM STILL NOT OVER YOU YET! *power up and blast toward Sonic*
*Sonic: Ready for nothing for another meltdown. *power punch at Ix*
*Ix: *fly around and shoot plasma balls everywhere* Come and get them!
*Lani-Loli: Look out!
*Tangle: *dodge a plasma ball* Whoa!
*Whisper: *dodge on the car* Stay alert! Don't let them get closer to you!
*Jewel: *shoot the plasma balls* Those plasma balls aren't getting away with our gadgets if it weren't for the wizard.
*Sonic: *dodge the plasma balls* Jeez, does this guy ever quit on a long battle?
*Ix: Not! Taste my power! *unleash a dark wave*
*Sonic: *dodge a dark wave* Here goes for nothing.
*Ix: Where do you think you're going, speedster?
*Sonic: You're not fast for a wizard. You're fast for a hedgehog. *power blast at Ix*
*Ix: Darn it. You're still slow as your friends!
*Tails: Are you calling us slow? The usage of your powers make you slow! *jump and kick Ix*
*Ix: Not on the neck. *twist his head*
*Tails: I'm not going to hold back against my team.
*Ix: You are going to lose.
*Tails: I'll never lose, even for my two tails. *fly around to punch Ix many times*
*Ix: Stop hitting me when I'm watching. *shoot at Tails*
*Tails: Ah! *crash on the street*
*Amy: Tails!
*Coco: You monster. Now you're getting your payback. *throw a wrench at Ix*
*Ix: You threw a wrench at me? Now you'll get a whoop out of my staff. *shoot at Coco*
*Crunch: *block the attack* I can't hold it any longer.
*Ix: What the...
*Alternate Tawna: I got this one coming. Show-off! *throw a wumpa fruit at Ix*
*Ix: Stupid fruit. *wipe a wumpa fruit off his face*
*Sonic: *run and destroy every cleaning bot* So easy to clean and kill.
*Geary: Hey! What have you done to my friends?!
*Sonic: You lost your friends. Now there is some serious payback to face for your crimes.
*Geary: I am not a criminal. I am a superhero! *power up*
*Sparky: Oh boy. He'll never learn from his mistakes.
*Geary: Show-out! *thunderclap at Sonic*
*Sonic: *hold on the bench* Whoa! Slowed down! You're flicking too hard!
*Geary: You made me more mad than ever and you won't like me when I'm mad!
*Sonic: And you won't like me when I'm in my dark form.
*Geary: You like to cheat, don't you?
*Sonic: I never cheat. The only problem I have to deal with a robot's anger issues is 
*Sonic: You must be jealous cause, you're always gonna lose to a fight from a hero when you are actually a hero. Since when?
*Geary: I'm gonna knock you out! *run and fight Sonic*
*Sonic: Let's get fast. *push Geary with power*
*Geary: *crash on the cars* You cheater! You broke my back!
*Sonic: Yeah. Now that you lose, you can go home now.
*Geary: I hate you!
*Sparky: I hate to let down the golden robot. But his control is still under the spell of Emperor Velo.
*Sonic: But we still have to fight the IX guy around the clouds.
*Ix: *shoot dark beams everywhere* Poor souls. Waiting for me to lose so I can go home? I don't think so.
*Alternate Tawna: The big threat is still luring on the streets. We must stop him and take him down to custody.
*Tawna: I got my target on him. *shoot a rocket at Ix*
*Ix: Gah! You can't beat me! I am unstoppable!
*Alternate Tawna: You can't just estimate and comprehend your power at the same time. *fight Ix*
*Geary: *power up* I'm not letting it go if it weren't for you meddling heroes! *block Sparky* Back off, dud!
*Sparky: You stop it and leave my friends behind. *push Geary to a bus*
*Geary: I hate you. I'm gonna pull your pieces apart!
*Sparky: How can I praised a hero for years, only to be betrayed by your true actions.
*Omochao: You know, the robot is being brainwashed by Velo.
*Geary: I don't care. I will pray Velo as a god and your preventing worshippers will be sorry for your atrocities! *power up*
*Sparky: No one in this planet like Velo. His politics bore us for years. There you have it. You have it coming and now, it's time for your beating punishment. *fight Geary*
*Geary: *move a bus and throw it against Sparky* Ah-ka!
*Sparky: *throw a trash can on Geary* Eat garbage, you droid tank!
*Geary: How about you get wrecked first? *throw a plastic cup at Sparky* Huh?
*Sparky: Ha. That's so weak and baby. Let the real hit approaches. *throw a limbo at Geary*
*Geary: *crash on two cars* You son of clutches. You all pay!
*Sparky: Sparky knows how the real work is done.
*Sonic: *run fast and power punch at Ix* Everyone, I got him!
*Ix: *glow* Time to burn. *get hit by Knuckles and Shade* Gah! My face. Who hit my face?
*Knuckles: It's over Ix. You had enough.
*Shade: Give up already warlord. You just lost.
*Ix: Shade, you dare to betray on me?
*Shade: You lied to me, liar. You killed my parents and my whole tribe. Think how smart a warlord can be when you murdered thousands of tribes in all of your years of conquest and conquering? I'm going to give you what I have been planning to do since my first encounter with your clan. *power up and thunderclap at Ix*
*Ix: Traitor! How dare you turn your back on the Nocturnus Clan?! *fly and punch Shade*
*Knuckles: I got him! *use his Chaos energy to punch Ix*
*Shade: *curl as a ball to hit Ix many times* How do you like that now?
*Ix: *hold Shade* Unworthy.
*Shade: Are you done yet?
*Ix: Do I look like I'm done? Not quite yet. *grunt and slam Shade through the ground*
*Knuckles: Shade! Oh, now you're going to get what you deserved. *run and smash Ix*
*Sonic: Knuckles, I can handle him myself.
*Knuckles: *block Ix* Sonic, I'll take care of him. I'm good at blocking enemies.
*Sonic: No. I just need to take his staff and slam it through the ground.
*Knuckles: What?
*Coco: No way.
*Ix: What did you say?!
*Sonic: The case is closed! *run and hold Ix's staff, only to break it to the ground* Nailed it. *see the staff shake* Uh oh.
*Ix: What did you do?!
*Crash: Huh?
*Lani-Loli: Is it over already?
*Amy: What's happening. Tails, can you analyze the staff?
*Tails: *use the Miles Electric to analyze the staff* The staff seems to be effective and can harmfully cause wormholes if it get damage badly in other cases, natural causes.
*Sonic: Natural causes, what? *see a wormhole open up* What the what?
*Ix: No! It can't be happening.
*Nestor: The Argus Event! The Argus has spoken!
*Alternate Tawna: *see the tentacles sticking out of the wormhole* Something tell me the sky has a octopus inside of a wormhole.
*Shade: That's part of the natural disaster. We're being taken away to the Twilight Cage.
*Ix: No! I can't be stuck in the world again! I must get out of here!
*Knuckles: Where do you think you're going? You just lost!
*Ix: *see the tentacles taking out the buildings as the robots scream and run* I can't lose my chance to take over a planet. *shoot plasma all over the streets*
*Knuckles: *block the plasma and punch it toward Ix* My friends, go find the spacecraft and get us out of Teknee!
*Sonic: We're on my way, Knuckles. *salute* My group, come on!
*Alternate Tawna: What if we get stuck through the wormhole?
*Tangle: *hold Belle* We'll be dead as much as a black hole*
*Shade: You're gonna get stuck to the other world. Trust me. I was stuck in that world for centuries.
*Whisper: Think we'll never age and live forever like the dinosaurs?
*Shade: Closely enough.
*Nestor: *try to close down the wormhole* Why won't my powers work? It won't shut down!
*Aku Aku: Nestor, what are you doing? You're gonna get yourself sucked.
*Nestor: I must do my best for what the echidna gods have always done! The Precursor Tablets have spoken! Argus is trying to take us somewhere after one war!
*Aku Aku: The war is all of this from Geary's actions?
*Geary: Ho ho ho, that's right. *kick Nestor*
*Sonic: Nestor!
*Nestor: Oh, ho. My back.
*Geary: *hold Nestor* Look what you done. You are sucking my planet away because of you. You brought the Argus into my reality and now, we're gonna be dead scrap because of your clan.
*Nestor: I didn't start all of this. The Argus Event did.
*Geary: You know, your actions have brought us to this world to empower the danger of the forces of two evils.
*Sonic: Isn't that the lesser of two evils you're speaking? *punch Geary*
*Geary: You're still here? I thought you won.
*Sonic: The Argus Incident isn't going to hold us any longer 'til we fight steady and wrap up our battle.
*Geary: Between you and me. Let's face it. *drop Nestor and fight Sonic*
*Nestor: According to the tablets, "The will of Argus, must escape Argus."
*Ix: *punch Nestor* Traitor* You should known of this.
*Nestor: Hey Ix guy. I don't work with you anymore. Sorry to break up with you. The world is gonna end and we got nothing left to lose.
*Ix: I am not going to lose 'til the multiverse is controlled by the power of my clan.
*Nestor: Just one step. Just like the good old days.
*Ix: The good old days are no more. Say hello and welcome to the bad old days. *fight Nestor*
*Tails: *see most of the buildings breaking apart* We're not gonna make it.
*Crash: Uh oh.
*Coco: We could have taken a bus stop.
*Crunch: All the roads are closed due to the incident. We don't know where to go next.
*Tawna: Why not take a taxi?
*Alternate Tawna: The road is full of traffic. It's too late to take a taxi before the Argus Event.
*Amy: I know. We can use the rings to teleport!
*Jewel: For the whole time. We could have used the rings to warp to any place before the battle. Just look! *see a building collapsing with the spacecraft as the wormhole get bigger to suck most parts of Teknee*
*Shade: Holy crap. Was that our spacecraft?
*Omochao: Oh man. Now there's no way home.
*Sparky: We could use a little help to use another spaceship to return to your home planet.
*Lani-Loli: You can?
*Sparky: Too late. It seems like we're gonna get sucked into a dark world. *he and everyone float to reach to the wormhole* There goes for nothing!
*Coco: We're too late!
*Tawna: It's always late for nothing!
*Alternate Tawna: *try to use her hook to reach to the chain* I got it. *her hook broke a chain* Just kidding. This planet sucks!
*Crash: Ahh!
*Shade: Not this bull wormhole again.
*Tails: The end is near!
*Sonic: *push Geary through the ground* Piece of gold money bar. I think you fight enough.
*Geary: *float* What happen? Why are we floating?
*Sonic: *float* Uh, maybe gravity has shut off a bit for us to fly like eagles. Not quite it. We're getting sucked!
*Nestor: *punch and smash Ix to the sign* Your tribe was a failure.
*Ix: I was never... a failure.
*Nestor: You liar. You lie to your own people and brainwash them to erase memories you forbid to see of in the past.
*Ix: Don't dare speak to me of a master that control a clan to do those things like invading a island.
*Nestor: You're never smart and you will never be Imperator to rule a clan, Ix! *throw Ix off the street, feeling emotional until he saw Ix floating*
*Ix: *float while going to the wormhole* There will be consequences, Nestor!
*Nestor: *float* When everything ends, everything sucks up to the hole to be thrown to the prison dimension! This is the part where we go to prison!
(The Freedom Fighters, Geary, Nestor, Sparky and Ix float through the wormhole as the Argus Event closes down in Teknee, leaving all the buildings to crash through the dump as Sonic and Crash's gang are falling through a hole as they are about to approach to the Twilight Cage with Ix following them over)
*Sonic: We're going to a whole new world in darkness. *dodge a laser shot* Hey!
*Ix: Are you forgetting your manners.
*Sonic: Excuse me. You caused the chaos first. Look at where we're falling.
*Cindy: Make sure all the targets aim on the imperator.
*Ix: Don't tell your friends to go against me by your targets! *Sparky block him*
*Sparky: Not so fast. *electrocute Ix*
*Geary: Why? Don't forget me. *zap on Sparky*
*Sonic: Sparky!
*Crash: No! *try to get Geary off Sparky*
*Geary: Why won't you let go of me you rascal bandicoot! *slap Crash*
*Sonic: Crash! Hey, why did you do that?! *get hit by Crash*
*Ix: You made us crash land on the cage!
*Geary: It's not my fault that we're being forced to be thrown on the garbage dimension.
*Sparky: We are now approaching to the Twilight Cage!
*Shade: Not our dimension. Anything worse than that, we're facing our doom where time ends here!
(The Freedom Fighters fall through the Twilight Cage as they arrive in a empty rock planet with Nestor, Geary, Sparky and Ix falling as most buildings, vehicles and citizens from Teknee crash through the rock planet with buildings breaking apart and robots crashing on the ground, leading to be torn apart due to the fall. Sonic and Crash's gang landed on the ground with few broken buildings seen from the crash as the gang get up together to find their whereabouts.)
*Sonic: What the what? What happen? *see two cars fall* Aw man. Someone didn't have their driver's license today.
*Tails: We're in a whole new world of darkness. *see a spacecraft crash* Aw, shucks. That was our spacecraft.
*Knuckles: Crashed, crushed, dead. Now there's no way out of this dark world. Looks like we're gonna be stuck here for the rest of our lives.
*Coco: Is anyone alright? Guys?
*Crash: *pop out of the ground and spit out sand* Ooh.
*Crunch: *smash a rock* My muscles work properly.
*Tawna: Glad we didn't fall in the 10th dimension or else, any dimension worse than the 5th dimension.
*Alternate Tawna: The multiverse is always crazy and my world is one of them, at least it's not a blunder like where we are right now.
*Aku Aku: Quantum Masks, are you okay?
*Lani-Loli: Yes Aku Aku. We're okay, perfect and slim. No one didn't get hurt. *see a robot fall through a spike rock* This proves I'm always wrong.
*Omochao: We hate to be that guy, but none of us didn't crashed through the spikes.
*Nestor: *see his destroyed spacecraft* No! I put effort on this bad boy. Now we won't be able to go home. How did we end up falling through a prison dimension where no one can get out through a swarm of wormholes.
*Shade: No. It can't be. That's the Twilight Cage!
*Knuckles: You can't be that serious with the dark world that had you stuck within centuries.
*Shade: This universe is where I was brought and tortured.
*Knuckles: Knowing how many people were kidnapped in Mobius and brought here to be trained as marauders and power-hungry ragtag pirates.
*Shade: Our clan have pirates and they always keep an eye on us like those security guards at a club.
*Cindy: *locate through her watch* Did we fall into the Shadow Realm or the Subspace?
*Chel: Actually, we're in the Twilight Cage. That's what the echidna lady told us about a while ago.
*Crunch: I thought you said Twilight Zone like we're stuck in a episode of the classic series.
*Coco: No. Not the TV series. I'm talking about the Twilight Cage right here.
*Tawna: Things are starting to get crazy with this world not looking like the 10th dimension.
*Alternate Tawna: Dark universe, isn't it?
*Tangle: *lay Belle on the ground* Glad her body didn't torn apart by the time of the fall. How did the Teknee robot assistant went for you guys? *confused* Sparky?
*Sonic: *pop out of nowhere* Sparky? Where did Sparky go? Sparky, oh Sparky? You're not playing hide and seek on us. *found Sparky* Sparky! It's you! Are you okay?
*Sparky: *glitch* I... don't... feel... so... good....
*Sonic: No no no. You can't be dead. You're the one that lead us to do the world test run.
*Aku Aku: How did you get hurt like this?
*Sparky: The damage of the fall hurt me. I pray for you guys to stop the Nocturnus Clan from destroying the multiverse. We really need your help and pray for mercy to stop the notorious Ix and all of his forces in one existing Noc- *shut down*
*Sonic: Sparky!
*Crash: Aw.
*Tangle: Is he dead?
*Jewel: His body shut down. The system broke him out in his body after the fall. He isn't able to activate again after one of his chips burn from the fight.
*Whisper: Then what is the other case with the Badnik robot we faced?
*Jewel: No sign of the Belle lady, or the neutral robot we just faced at Teknee.
*Geary: *try to get up while crawling* Please... Help us... The Nocturnus Clan have attacked our planet and now, they're going after the worlds.
*Sonic: You actually tried to kill us. Don't even think about apologizing.
*Geary: They used me as a weapon to kill you. I can't believe I let my master down for this.
*Knuckles: Don't lie for what you have done. *try to hit Geary*
*Shade: Stop. He was a simple robot being controlled by the Velo Empire.
*Knuckles: How come? He was against us and try to kill us with his vacuum cleaner on the go.
*Shade: He was under Velo's spell for many years, controlled and manipulated by the hands of a alien conqueror. That golden robot is innocent on the other side. Not even the Nocturnus Clan show up to brainwash him into more of a hypocritical side.
*Knuckles: I don't trust him with all of his cleaning bots. You know he's up for a another trick. He must be lying at the point, waiting to self-destruct to get us killed like navy ships.
*Sonic: Knuckles. Let it be. You just have to let it go for a innocent person to move on from their mistakes. I made mistakes. I changed and became a better person like Shadow.
*Knuckles: Shadow is different than you. He is not like any other hero like us. The only neutral guy you have met is me when we first met back at Angel Island.
*Sonic: The first time I met you, you tried to kill me for the Master Emerald.
*Knuckles: But that was different. Eggman was only trying to make a fool of me so he can use the Chaos Emeralds to take over the universe with his toy robots.
*Geary: Guys... can you hold my hand? Please? *shut down*
*Sonic: And, he's deactivated.
*Knuckles: Can I kill him now?
*Omochao: No. Just because a robot shut down doesn't mean you have to smash it.
*Knuckles: You annoy me too much lately and should have shut you down a year ago back at the Lost Hex.
*Alternate Tawna: We only got a solution. Aku Aku, back at my timeline, I met you when you have the ability to bring back people from the dead. Is that true?
*Aku Aku: Yes. But I can only reheal injured people after every battle.
*Alternate Tawna: You can only reheal? But my Aku Aku bring people back from the dead. Think you can try to reheal and bring these robots back for a second chance?
*Aku Aku: Okay. I got a second chance coming. *reheal Geary, Sparky and Belle*
*Geary: *reactivate with Sparky and Belle* Oh my. Where am I? Is today Monday?
*Sonic: Hey, you brought them back.
*Knuckles: Endanger! They're only trying to trick us.
*Shade: No. Let them have their second chance.
*Sparky: Am I alive? I thought I am going to meta heaven.
*Belle: Back again?
*Amy: Belle! *hug Belle*
*Belle: Amy. It's you. I thought I would never see you again.
*Tails: Glad you got the evil curse out of your body and now joining on the good side.
*Belle: Working with these troublemakers was a mistake. But I can prove how to be a better person.
*Tangle: You have always been a better person Belle. Like no other hero that tried to be one like Whisper.
*Whisper: We start out rough and start out new.
*Jewel: People changes all the time.
*Sparky: Alright. We are back in action. We might not stay around for many years, but can we manage to get out of this world and go home.
*Sonic: Sparky, we have to warn you that we're in the Twilight Cage.
*Shade: Which is the home to most of the Nocturnus Clan members.
*Sparky: Oh no. How am I aware?
*Geary: This is what Ix and Velo were talking about. I'm aware that Ix have more members up in his prison and how his members will be able to make their escape and try to conquer as many worlds as they want to. It seems that we're stuck in Ix's homeworld after the fall.
*Nestor: You do know that this universe is a prison dimension where the Argus Event suck the current events and bring it into their world, making this world like a void where everything doesn't age on space and time.
*Geary: How do I know? I thought we left our own time for a cause.
*Sparky: What do we do next? Stay here to fight the Nocturnus Clan or leave the Twilight Cage by a ship-stop?
*Nestor: The spacecraft seems to be broken. I command you two to stay back to fix the spacecraft while we're going to find Ix and take him down for justice.
*Shade: We Freedom Fighters will find Ix and disband the Nocturnus Clan for good.
*Knuckles: This is for the Knuckles Clan. It's a chance that I will finally fight the bad echidnas that I always wanted and win my destiny to become an echidna warrior.
*Crunch: You have always been an echidna warrior Knuckles.
*Knuckles: Since day one.
*Sparky: I will everyone some good luck and go fight back the Nocturnus Clan.
*Geary: It wouldn't be a while for Emperor Velo to come back and try to punish me into his prison room.
*Sparky: Right now. Let's get the spacecraft fixed and steady. *use his powers to fix the spacecraft with Geary*
*Sonic: Okay crew. We don't know where we are, but we must be making our way to find the Ix guy.
*Shade: I know everything about this world. All you gotta do is follow me.
*Sonic: What? I was about to lead them.
*Shade: You don't know anything about this world. I've been here for 4,000 years and know all the places I've been to. I show you the way when we get to one of the territories.
*Tails: I'll get my Miles Electric going to locate all the places in the universe.
*Knuckles: We just compromise on our settlement on trusting and will be going after the clan in various worlds of this prison dimension.
*Shade: We can trust each other any time without breaking up.
*Sonic: We'll keep it going on the go. Come on crew. Let's go search for places on the dimension to find a way to stop the clan from taking over worlds.
*Shade: Ix must be hiding in one of the areas for another rematch, but it won't be that long for the warlord to come back and haunt us.
(The Freedom Fighters follow Shade on the rocky wasteland of the Twilight Cage as Ix somehow survived and break out of the rocks, floating by spying on the heroes)
*Ix: I am still alive. You haven't seen the last of me, Shade even through you betrayed me and turn my back on the clan. I shall return with a bigger army. *fly off*
