After the war against Robotnik and his empire the Sonic Underground would end up defeating him one final time causing Sonic's World to finally be at peace. With this knew found peace the Queen Aleena and her children would return to the thrown and the Restoration rose and began to finally rebuild the world from the reign of Robotnik.

However, the threats weren't entirely gone. One of Robotnik's robots, Silver Sonic, went rogue, attempting to pick up what Robotnik had felt behind. fortunately for the Restoration he would be taken out before he could conquer the world. After Silver Sonic destruction the Restoration began to take hold of eggman's tech and Aleena would outlaw it's use. however, this did not denture one Individual... Dr. Starline. He made a reputation foir himself being a Robotnik apologist and after Robotnik's death he was more determined then ever to stop the new royal family. After obtaining a small portion of Eggman's tech and a following he started a cult, the Zealots of Robotnik, with the hopes of removing Aleena from power and upholding the legacy of Robotnik.

Starline made a few attempts here and there to dethrone Aleena but to no avail. he would then later set his eyes on the Metal Virus. a project Robotnik had made plans for but never finished. Starline hoped to get the Royal family infected to dethrone them, but his infiltrator, Belle, soon after changed sides. He then began planning his next move knowing the all of this will payoff once he's setting on the thrown upholding the name of the good doctor.

### Present day

Years go by and Starline hadn't made much progress. so much to the point where Sonic traveled to the Sol Dimension to find more things to do. He'd get re-acquainted with Blaze and they'd soon after get married, making him the King of the Sol Empire. Meanwhile back on Sonic's World Aleena had began to age and she knew she couldn't be queen forever. So she then stepped down from the thrown allowing Sonia and her new husband Knuckles to take up their right as King and Queen of Mobotroplis.

Tails would also manage to find new love in Starline's ex. assassin belle. He had never managed to get over the death of Cosmo, but with the assistance of Belle's and her newly found kindness and caring she helped ease him into accepting it and moving on. Tails would be a reliable head technician and care taker for his new found family. Infinite, one of Robotnik's former minions would also get his new found freedom and friendship when he and his now wife Whisper would take down their former rivals. giving the both of then a clearer state of mind and a clean slate.

All these new families would give rise to the next generations of heroes and there adventures...
