Ventus Frees the Captured Animals and Gets Recaptured/Following Ventus

*(Back in the containment room, Mushu was still trying to pick the cage door's lock with his tail, but to no avail. He, Cri-Kee, and Fidget were so exhausted that they didn't know that Mushu had unlocked the cell as he mumbled in his sleep. When he woke up, Mushu wailed in despair)*

Mushu: (Sobbing) I give up!

*(He kicked the cell door closed, waking up the captives)*

Mushu: (Wailing) I'll never get this! We're doomed! Doomed!

Penelope: Hey look!

Bugs: (Happily) Guys, Fidget, Mushu, and Cri-Kee are out!

Fidget: Mushu!

Ventus: Mushu, Cri-Kee, Fidget, you're free!

Fidget: (Confused) Free?!

*(He, Mushu, and Cri-Kee realized that Ventus was right)*

Mushu: (Realizing, along with Fidget and Cri-Kee) We're free! We're free! We're free! We're free!

*(As Mushu continued with that tune while he, Cri-Kee, and Fidget exited the cage, Foghorn shushed him)*

Foghorn: Mephiles and the Badniks'll hear!

Daffy: Double or nothing, they're caught in five minutes.

Lola: You're on.

Ventus: Calm down, little guys.

Mushu: Look at us, we're free!

Ventus: Mushu, Cri-Kee, Fidget, get the keys.

Fidget: We should get the keys.

*(Suddenly, Mushu got his head stuck in the cell door. He gasped as he cried while he attempted to break free with Fidget and Cri-Kee looking at him in concern)*

Mushu: I'm stuck, I'm stuck, I'm stuck!

Speedy: Shhh!

Foghorn: (Whispering) Quiet!

Pepe: (Whispering) Calm down, *mes amis*!

Daffy: (Whispering harshly) Keep it down, you dumb dragon!

Ventus: Take it easy, I will get you loose.

*(He helped get Mushu unstuck)*

Ventus: There you go. Now, go get the keys.

Fidget: The keys!

*(As he and the others ran to the keys hanging on the wall)*

Fidget: Yeah, yeah, keys, keys, keys, keys, keys!

*(He tried to reach for the keys as he jumped, but he failed)*

Mushu: Aw man, I can't reach them.

Ventus: Quick! Get something to stand on.

Mushu: Yeah, stand on, something to stand on!

Daffy: This oughta be rich.

*(Fidget grabbed a piece of wood)*

Fidget: Yeah, yeah, stand on, stand on.

*(He stood on it and jumped to get the keys as the others called their names)*

Ventus and the animals: Mushu! Fidget! Cri-Kee!

Ventus: Use the box! Climb up on the box!

Mushu: Box, box.

*(He moved a box onto the piece of wood. He grabbed the keys, but he tumbled down)*

Ventus and the animals: SHHHHHH! Quiet!

Mushu: Darn, these darn keys are heavy!

*(He kicked to the keys, much to the others' dismay. As Fidget grabbed the keys, Mephiles, Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts bursted through the animal door on the big door, much to the his, Mushu, and Cri-Kee's horror)*

Mushu and Fidget: Oops.

*(Then they ran away, screaming, and Mephiles and the Badniks started chasing after Mushu, Cri-Kee, and Fidget)*

Foghorn: The keys, Fidget! Give us the keys!

*(Mephiles, Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts then smashed into a wall as Fidget gave Ventus the keys. Then, quickly grabbing four muzzles and ropes, Mushu immediately hogtied Mephiles and the Badniks up and muzzled them. The four shouted in anger through the muzzles)*

Mushu: (Jokingly) Sorry, can't hear you through the muzzles! Ha!

*(Then Ventus unlocked his cage door, got out of the cage, and proceeded to free the other animals. Suddenly, as soon as the freed animals, Fidget, Mushu, and Cri-Kee quickly got out through the window, Eggman walked into the room with an evil smirk)*

Eggman: Surprise!

*(Suddenly, his evil smirk turned to surprise when he spotted Ventus climbing at the window and saw Mephiles, Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts tied and muzzled. Angered, Eggman pulled his knife out and cut Mephiles and the Badniks free and, after he roughly yanked the muzzles off of the three Badniks while Mephiles removed his own muzzle, they ran up to Ventus and yanked him back)*

Eggman: (Angrily) If I didn't know any better, I'd think you didn't like it here.

*(Ventus struggled against the Badniks)*

Ventus: Let me go! Let go, let go!

*(Outside, the animals got concerned for Ventus, but Ventus signaled them to run, which they reluctantly did)*

Mephiles: The animals are getting away!

Eggman: Let them go for now.

Mephiles: Oh, I get it. Find and capture them later.

Eggman: Come on, boy.

*(As Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts dragged Ventus out the door, they closed it after they and Mephiles exited. Moments later, the rescuers and Steelbeak arrived at Eggman's hideout, and they went up to the front door)*

Sadie: There is no time to waste.

Fluttershy: (Agreeing) We must try to get in.

*(Shaggy and the Fearsome Four grabbed five nearby sticks and gave each one to Sadie, Widget, Rainbow Dash, Sci-Twi, and Pinkie Pie)*

Shaggy: Here, here, Sadie.

Quackerjack: Start digging, Pinkie Pie.

*(Sonic and Sally's group, the Fearsome Four, Widget, the Mane Seven, and Steelbeak started digging)*

Steelbeak: Has anyone considered trying…? Open sesame?

*(Just then, the door opened, and they clung onto it as the rescuers yelped)*

Steelbeak: Hey, it worked!

*(They went up the open door and looked down to see Ventus and Eggman walking out. Eggman tossed Ventus onto the ground)*

Eggman: (Voice-over) Get out of here! Go on! Git!

Sally: Look, Sonic, it's the boy!

Steelbeak: And Eggman!

*(Eggman threw Ventus' knife at the ground near his feet)*

Eggman: It's all over, boy; Your dragons are dead. Somebody shot them…. Shot them, right outta the sky, bang!

Scratch: Dead as doornails!

*(Mephiles played dead)*

Ventus: NO!!

Eggman: What do you mean no? You calling me a liar?! I heard it on the radio this morning, and they could have been mine if it weren't for you! Now you'd better get out of here before I change my mind! Go on, git!

Sonic: (Whispering) Why is he letting them go?

Steelbeak: (Whispering) It's gotta be a trick.

*(Eggman looked at Mephiles and the Badniks)*

Eggman: Too bad about those eggs, eh boys? They'll never survive without their parents. Oh, well, survival of the fittest, I guess.

*(Then Ventus ran off as Eggman smirked)*

Eggman: (Whispering) Bingo!

*(Mephiles and the Badniks laughed hysterically)*

Sally, Cosmo, and Amy: Dragons?

Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles: Eggs?

*(Shaggy, Sadie, the Fearsome Four, Widget, the Mane Seven, and Steelbeak quickly shushed the six Mobians)*

Steelbeak: (Whispering) Listen!

*(Eggman pulled out his truck with himself, Mephiles, Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts in the cab)*

Eggman: I didn't make it all the way through third grade for nothing.

Coconuts: (Flatly) Can't imagine why.

Eggman: I was being rhetorical, moronic mouse!

Coconuts: (Annoyed) I'm a monkey, not a mouse! Sheesh!

*(The truck began to leave)*

Steelbeak: I don't know where he's going, but we can't let him get away! Hurry up, everyone!

*(He and the others jumped onto the truck, and the rescuers jumped down, but they missed, and they slid down onto the treads)*

Liquidator: Oh no!

Bushroot: Oh no!

Megavolt: Get between the treads!

*(Steelbeak threw the rope, calling out)*

Steelbeak: Sonic! Sally! Tails! Cosmo! Knuckles! Amy! Shaggy! Sadie! Fearsome Four! Widget! Twilight! Rainbow! Pinkie! Here, catch!

*(Sonic grabbed the rope)*

Sonic: Got it! Sally, you-you can do it!

*(Sally grabbed the rope, and she, Sonic, Cosmo, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, Megavolt, Widget, Quackerjack, Pinkie Pie, Liquidator, Sci-Twi, Bushroot, Rainbow Dash, Shaggy, and Sadie were pulled up to safety by Steelbeak and the Mane Four. High in the sky, Launchpad and Darkwing were flying in the air in their helicopter, looking for the rescuers and Steelbeak)*

Darkwing: Boy, this is some headwind, huh?

*(He and Launchpad looked at the female birds near them, and the latter laughed a little)*

Launchpad: Say, you ladies wouldn't have seen six Mobians, two humans, four mutant animals, a girl bunny, and seven ponies, along with a rooster running around down here, would you?

*(The birds got offended, and they flew away)*

Launchpad: Hey, where are you going? I mean it! I'm looking for six Mobians, two humans, four mutant animals, a bunny, and seven ponies, and the rooster that they went with! Was it something I said?

Darkwing: Probably.
