He shoots at the earth and destroy many places. **(Bossfight: Death Egg)** At the end Sonic and Co win but the earth is slightly destroyed.

### Chapter 1: Rusty Hill

About 15 to 20 years passed. Sonic (35 years old) and Amy (32) came somehow together (No one could imagine this, but it was possible if Amy wasn't that crazy) live in a place formerly known as Green Hill. They have three kids: Scourge the Hedgehog (10), Sonia the Hedgehog (9) and Manic the Hedgehog (8). Tails (32) and Cream (28) live in a workshop and have two kids: Sky the Fox Prower (9) and Candy the Rabbit Prower (6) with her Chao Cookie. Cream and Cheese, Vanilla and Chocola, Candy and Cookie work in a bakery and Vector (in his forties) became like a grandfather for Sky and Candy. Knuckless (36) and Rouge (38 I think) were married got two kids: Ruby the Echidna (9) a girl that wants to be like her father and Saphire the Bat (14) Emo boy. But then Knuckless and Rouge got divorced. Rouge live in the base of Shadow's mafia and Knuckless on Angel Island with the kids. Shadow (doesn't age) created a clone-son for him: Terios the Hedgehog (10). Also they learned to bend Chaos Energy to create a ghost for Maria who became like a Force Ghost the mother of Terios. Also he is kinda a mafia boss in Westopolis. Team Dark became a mafia. Rouge and Omega are admins, Shadow the boss and then there are some Grunts. Blaze (35?) and Silver (34) live in the Sol Dimension as king and queen and have three kids: Iblis the Cat (13), Mephiles the Hedgehog (13) and a baby hedgehog who is called either Gold or Solaris. For some reason Silver can't go to the future Espio (in his thirties) is a sensei and teach his daughter and a bunch of others ninjutsu. Charmy (28) became a Detective. Eggman is in jail but there are rumors he became the good guy. Metal is somewhere in Rusty Hill a rusted version of Mecha Green Hill and there are rumors he got a family somehow. Other characters are unimportant. They are just somewhere until they get killed. One day the Master Emerald is stolen. Knuckles informs Tails and Silver. Then they go to Sonic. Sonic feels guilty about having destroyed the earth a bit, because if he wasn't focused on having fun but rather stopping Eggman it wouldn't happen. Finally they convince them to help. And so Sonic, Tails, Knuckless, Amy Silver and Blaze head to Rusty Hill, (which looks like a mix of Green Hill and Stardust Speedway) because Eggman couldn't steal it and Metal is free. **(Level: Rusty Hill)** They reach a small old house. When thy want to storm inside Metal opens the door. He got scars and one arm was removed and changed with another. His eyes doesn't light that strong and one is almost black. Suddenly they start to glow and he attacks **(Bossfight: Metal Sonic)** The heroes (especially Sonic and Amy) defeat him. The door of this house opens and SAGE with a small Silver Sonic comes out. Metal Sonics eyes are almost dark again. Inside they tell, that Eggman built a child for Metal and SAGE as a Goodbye Present before going to prison and that they now have a peaceful life. But today someone hacked Metal and made him attack Sonic and the others. He is sorry. Suddenly Charmy storms in. He says that Vector is missed in the swamp. He found a signal of the Master Emerald in a swamp where formerly was Chemical Plant and is missed. In a corner of the room Espio appears. Silver and Blaze have to go back and Amy don't want to go to the swamp in a abandoned factory, but Charmy, Espio and Metal join.

### Chapter 2: Chemical Swamp

They go in the swamp. Everything changed here. There are some signs that it was Chemical Plant, but the nature took over here. Everywhere vines and greenish water which is probably Mega Muck. The factory is big so they split up **(Level: Chemical Swamp)**They don't really trust Metal Sonic. Especially Espio and Charmy. Somewhere in the Swamp they are talking about Metal when suddenly a silhouette jump out of the water. It's Vector! But has a more brownish-yellowish skin and yellow snake-like eyes. He attacks the heroes. **(Bossfight: Vector?)**ey beat him and he is knocked out but still strange and aggressive. Then Metal Sonic scans him and inject something. The mutated Vector puke out Mega Mack and come back to life normal. He says that he found in a database that someone hides the Master Emerald in the Ruins of the Death Egg when someone throwed him in the Mega Mack which made him mutated. Also he found out that the thief is... Suddenly a drone shoots Vector from behind. Vector fall down. Charmy's eyes fill with tears. Espio looks at the drone and destroys it in rage. Now they know that Metal hasn't to do anything with it and that the Emerald is on the Death Egg. But they don't know who killed Vector and who stole the Master Emerald. To get to the Egg Ruins and to deactivate all traps they need Eggman. But will GUN allow them to let him free

### Chapter 3: Train Trouble

To make Eggman free they have to pretend that they are GUN Elite Members who need to speak with Eggman. A train will deliver them to Prison Island. Charmy depressed because of Vectors death and Espio doesn't support the idea in general. Metal trust Eggman because he didn't made any plans to escape. He only thing Eggman built in prison was a Mean-Bean Machine. The Gelee Beans are Blue, so he doesn't hate Sonic anymore. Amy makes all the papers and Silver joins them again. So, they sit in a train, which goes over a bridge to Prison Island. But suddenly the train stops and the light goes out. Some Mobians (I know that's the Archie name, but Animals refers to Flickies and Mickies and I mean anthropomorphic animals) storm the train. They have guns. Team Sonic, Amy, Silver and Metal have to got through the train and fight the guys with guns **(Level: Train Trouble)** They are surrounded by the enemies but Tails bring the Train back in motion and they fall. Sonic jumps out of the window on the roof. There he finds someone: Shadow, Rouge and Omega. That was the Team Dark Mafia. Shadow says the he knows their plan and that Eggman is too dangerous. Rouge says that Knuckless is a traitor and Omega says that Metal has to be terminated. **(Bossfight: Team Dark)** Team Dark is stronger but the heroes are more, so they win. But still it's a draw, so they make a deal: Team Dark comes with them, to check that Eggman won't make anything "eggmany".

### Chapter 4: Prison Madness

They arrive at Prison Island. Tails, and Rouge make the papers for the visit and take Omega to prevent that he kills Omega while Sonic, Silver, Shadow, Metal, Knuckless and Amy go inside. The Hedgehogs (& Knuckless) meet Eggman who gives Blue Beans to other prisoners. Metal is glad to see him. He looks very nice and good, he show them his Mean Beam machine, press a Big Red Button and want to give them the Beans too, but Shadow destroys them. Suddenly other prisoners are transforming in blueish werehog-like monsters. Eggman tells that when he built a son for Metal Sonic and gave it to him he tool a bit if Sonics DNA from Metal Sonic and made a virus of it. The virus is hidden in the Beans and everyone who ate it becomes a hedgehog monster. Eggman ate much of them and transforms into a big bluish-grey werehog-monster. He breaks the grid and escapes? The Hedgehogs have to find him how. **(Level: Prison Madness)** They find Eggman but he eats more of the virus beans and becomes even bigger **(Bossfight: Eggman the Hedgehog)**. They beat him and Tails find an antidot. Nut there are still a lot of monsters. Shadow puts a gun on Eggmans head and say that he have to fly them to the Egg Ruins. But there are too much monsters. Omega kills dozens of them to give the heroes and Eggman time to escape. He leads the Team Dark Organization and kill and kill and kill until its too much of them. In a tragic cutscene he sacrifices himself, explodes and blow up the island while Rouge is crying and Knuckless is holding her back while Shadow doesn't show any emotions until he go inside the shuttle and cries silently. Metal is in the shuttle, sad about the fact that Eggman creating him a life was just a lie. Sonic is next to him, saying that he is sorry for him. Knuckless is guarding Eggman and Tails is implementing Chaos Emeralds in the Master Emerald locator (Silver carried them around to prevent other incidents)

### Chapter 5: Egg Ruins

They arrive in the Egg Ruins, the station that was once the Death Egg. It's broken. The half face of the giant Eggman is gone. They search for the Emerald **(Level: Egg Ruins)** Finally, they find him on a metal altar. Eggman runs at the Altar but it becomes a giant robot: \*(Bossfight: Death Emerald Robot)\* Pne of them hot the Emerald and it explodes. The robot too. Everything is fine. Happy End. Or isn't it? Where is Eggman. He finds a shard, eat it and all the shards rotate around him and he becomes the most powerful being: Eternal Eggman. He shoots a giant energy egg at the Earth and it explodes Cream, Blaze, Big, Tangle, Whisper, Tikal, Gamma, Mighty, Ray, Classic Sonic, Het, Wave, Storm, Espio, Charmy, the kids of them. All dead. Amy jumps at Eggman. But Eggman mind-control Metal Sonic who then kills Amy. Then Metal turns on full power and attacks Sonic. Sonic looks at Amy, then at the place where once the Earth was. He grs angry. His skin gets dark-blue and before Metal reach him he destroys him. Then he looks at Eggman and cries: "You! You MONSTER! TAILS! THE EMERALDS! NOW!!" But Tails doesn't want to give them: "Eggman has the power of the Master Emerald. If you kill him the universe will collapse." "I DON'T CARE! HE HAS DONE TOO MUCH! SILVER, THERE IS NO FUTURE, RIGHT ?!" Silver thinks: "We still can prevent it. There has to be another way! I'm sad too, Blaze my Kingdom, my family, dead! But live goes on. It has to. I won't let you to do this." He steps before Tails and the Chaos Emeralds ready to fight. Sonic slashes through him and Silver is injured. As Sonic goes to the Emeralds, Silver holds him with Psychokinesis. Sonic looks back. And kills Silver. "TAILS!! I'M NOT AFRAID!!! GIVE ME THE EMERALDS, TWO-TAILED FREAK!!!" that hit. Tails cries. Then he and Knuckles attack Sonic. Tais wrap his Tails very very very very very fast and Knuckless charge a very strong fist attack. Sonic stops them easily and break Tails's tails and Knuckless Arm. Rouge runs to Knuckless. Then Sonic looks at Shadow: "Make your decision! Now!" Shadow thinks about his son, Omega and the Team Dark members. Maria Ghost tries to stop him but he turn it off. And puts his inhibitor rings off: "There is nothing more that keeps me in this world." In silence they take the Emeralds and transform into new forms: Dark Sonic and Dark Shadow **(Final Boss: Eternal Eggman)** Big Battle. If I was the boss in SEGA I would say Crush 40 makes a big final song angrier and darker than the others. Tails watches sad while Knuckless and Rouge discuss about their past, their divorce, why everything happened so, end up kissing, and all that. Probably lame, but it has to be for the final. Meanwhile Sonic and Shadow fight Eggman in space. Very epic battle woth flashbacks of all games before. The universe is about to collapse. From here are two endings. One for the case it's the final game and one for the case they want a reboot:

#### Good Ending (Last Sonic game)

1.Sonic is about to make the final hit. But then he understands and make a big giant Chaos Control. He fixes the whole universe and revive all characters. A big white explosion happens. Back in Green Hill, it's really Green Hill, all come to a party. Even Shadow and Team Dark. Even Metal, Sage and the kid (called Metal Scourge). Then the bell rings. It's Eggman. He is sorry for what he have done. Sonic goes to the balcony and watches the sunset and a slow credits slightly sad but very nostalgic version of Green Hill Zone Theme starts playing. End

#### Ending? (Reboot)

2. Then Shadow got an idea. Sonic is about to make the final hit, but Shadow concentrate all his power to say:

"Gemstones of Chaos, The Might you have sworn, Give me the power I need to reborn." A big white explosion comes but Shadow speaks to end. Then a series of Flashbacks happen from the newest game to Sonic 1. And Shadow opens his eyes. In the capsule. Before anything happened...
