Cave Trek/Escape (Sonicladdin Version)

*(Later in the desert, Vanitas lead the gang while the wind is picking up wind like mad on a bunch of horses. Later, the disguised villain calls forth the Cave of Wonders once more. Sonic and his gang looked at it in amazement)*

Tiger head: Who disturbs my slumber?

Sonic: (Nervously) Uh, it is I, Sonic the Hedgehog.

Tails: (Nervously) Miles Prower, but call me Tails.

Knuckles: (Nervously) And I'm Knuckles the Echidna.

*(The tiger head nods after observing them)*

Tiger head: Proceed. Touch nothing but the lamp!

*(The tiger head opened up with a roar. Sonic's group sees the stairs from where they were at)*

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): Remember, boys. First, fetch me the lamp. And then you shall have your reward.

Knuckles: (Curiously) What is it about a lamp that is so important to him?

Sonic: Who knows?

Tails: (Whispering to a nervous Chip) Come on, Chip. Let's get going now.

Chip: (Nervously nodding) S-S-Sure.

*(Sonic's group entered the entrance and goes down the stairs. The stairs leading down ended at the bottom where Sonic’s group entered a room. They looked astounded. The room was filled with treasure as far as the eye can see)*

Sonic: Look at this!

Knuckles: Cool!

Tails: This whole horde of treasure could make us even richer than the sultan and sultaness.

Chip: Let's go for it!

*(Chip ran for a nearby jewel but Sonic and his gang yelled, stopping him)*

Sonic's group: Chip!

Chip: (Turning) What?!

Sonic: We can't touch anything, remember?

Tails: We got to find this lamp.

Chip: Fine.

*(Sonic's gang walked on. Unknown to them, a figure is spying on them. It is a giant female golden eagle with gold feathers, brown talons, a dark orange beak, brown eyes, and a white feathered head. She is Marahute. She quietly screeched and began to follow them quietly. Chip sensed something)*

Chip: Wait a minute....

*(Chip turned, but Marahute hid in time. Chip got suspicious and then moved on. Marahute followed again. Chip sensed her again and turned quickly. The golden eagle hid in the treasure. Chip saw a gold coin roll down upon that movement and ran to Sonic and his gang)*

Chip: Guys, you may want to take a look at this!

Knuckles: Chip, we have no time for treasure finding with you!

*(Chip groaned, but continued walking. Marahute came out of hiding and resumed following. Chip turned around but the eagle flew behind him very fast. Marahute then playfully pulled Chip's tail. making him jump, startled, and get into a fighting position. But Marahute zipped behind Chip just in time. Chip got suspicious. Marahute quietly takes Chip's gem and plays around with it. Chip noticed, turned, and upon noticing, jumped in alarm. Chip and Marahute yelped in alarm and while Marahute zipped away and hid, Chip ran to Sonic's gang and knocks them down)*

Sonic: Chip!

Knuckles: Are you crazy?!

Chip: See for yourself, wise guy!

*(Sonic's gang looked and saw Marahute peeking from a pile of treasure)*

Sonic: Whoa. A golden eagle.

Tails: Hey, come out. We won't hurt you.

*(Marahute comes out. She then dusts off Chip's gem and gives it back to Chip. Chip takes it and waved his fist threateningly)*

Chip: Take my gem again and you're meat! Now go away!

*(Feelings hurt, the golden eagle walked away sadly)*

Sonic: Wait, don't go! We need your help.

*(Marahute turned to them hopefully)*

Sonic: We mean it.

Knuckles: You know your way around here?

*(Marahute nods)*

Sonic: Cool! My name is Sonic and these are my friends Tails, Knuckles, and Chip.

*(Marahute then took a feather off herself and wrote her name on the ground with the quill part)*

Tails: "Marahute?"

*(Marahute nods)*

Tails: (Chuckles) Cool name.

Sonic: Anyway, we're here looking for a lamp.

Knuckles: Do you know where it is?

*(Realizing what they're talking about, Marahute nodded)*

Sonic: Great! Lead the way!

*(Sonic's gang then followed Marahute. The group continued through a bunch of long caves until they reached a giant underground cavern. Once they stopped, Marahute pointed her head to a big pillar with stairs going to the top of it. The stairs and pillar are surrounded by water with stones used as steps. A beam of light is shining on top of the pillar. Sonic turned to his gang)*

Sonic: Wait here.

*(The gang nods. Sonic began to step on the stones and make his way towards the stairs. As he does, Chip turned away for a second and then sees a statue holding the biggest red jewel he has ever seen)*

Chip: Whoa....

*(Chip began to go to it. Unaware of this, Sonic has reached the stairs and begin to climb them quickly. Tails, Knuckles, and Marahute turned and gasped as they see Chip heading to the jewel)*

Knuckles: Chip! Don't!

Tails: Hands off it!

*(They tackled Chip. The group began to fist fight. Unaware of what's happening below, Sonic finally got to the top and saw what is on the top of the pillar; A green lamp. Sonic picks it up and looks at it in wonder)*

Sonic: This is it? This is what I came all the way to....

Tails: Sonic!

Knuckles: We got a problem!

*(Sonic looked and gasped as he saw Chip got out of his fight with the group and is about to grab the jewel)*

Sonic: CHIP!! NO!!

Tails and Knuckles: STOP!!

*(Too late as Chip grabbed the jewel. But then the room begins to shake, much to the group's concern)*

Tiger head: (Voice-over) INFIDELS!!

Chip: Uh-oh!

Tiger head: (Voice-over) You have touched the forbidden treasure!

*(Chip puts the jewel back sheepishly but both the jewel and statue began to melt)*

Tiger head: (Voice-over) Now you will never again see the light of day!

*(Sonic moves quickly with the lamp as flames roared to where the lamp used to be. Sonic ran down the stairs but they turned into a ramp, making him slide down it. Sonic then finds himself flying into the air. The water itself turned into lava and Sonic is about to fall into it. Luckily, Marahute, with Tails and Knuckles on her back in the air, catches Sonic. Chip ran across the stone steps but stopped when he sees that they are exploding into lava. Chip panicked as the rock he's on is about to explode. But the group flew by and Sonic grabbed him just in time)*

Sonic: Let's get outta here!

*(The group began to fly back through the caves, dodging walls and debris doing so. Chip panicked and grabbed Knuckles by his head, covering his eyes)*

Sonic: Chip, cut it out!

Knuckles: This is no time to panic!

*(He yanked Chip off of his head, and Sonic and Tail sees that they are about to collide into a wall, getting their attention)*

Tails: Uh, Knuckles....

Sonic: Start panicking now.

*(Marahute then flew the entire group down, avoiding the wall. The group returned to the treasure cave. The lava poured out after them, melting all the treasure in the room. The group got out of the room back to the entrance. At the cave entrance, the tiger head itself roared furiously and is about to close. The group was almost to the top when a boulder crashed into Marahute, sending her to the ground. Sonic's gang landed on the broken steps and grabbed onto the ledge, almost to the entrance. Sonic holds on for his life as the others climbed out. He looked up and sees the disguised Vanitas at the top, within reach)*

Sonic: (Holding out his hand) Help me up!

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): Throw me the lamp!

Tails: Can't you see he can't hold on?!

Sonic: (Almost slipping) Give me your hand!

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): First give me the lamp!

*(Not wanting to argue for his life is at stake, Sonic takes the lamp out and hands it up. Vanitas grabbed it and holds the lamp over his head laughing sinisterly)*

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): (Laughing evilly) Yes! At last!

*(Vanitas puts the lamp into his pocket. He turned and saw the gang helping Sonic out. The villain kicked them aside and grabbed Sonic by the wrist)*

Sonic: (Shocked) What are you doing, stranger?!

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): Giving you your reward. *(Darkly)* Your eternal reward.

*(Vanitas pulled his Keyblade out and is about to stab Sonic with it. But Chip appeared out of nowhere and bites the disguised dark boy, making the villain yell in pain. Sonic was let go, and he fell back into the cave. Vanitas then angrily grabbed Chip and throws the fairy creature in and then shoved the gang in the cave as well. Marahute saw Sonic's gang falling and managed to get the boulder off herself. She got up and flew up and caught the group in time. Sonic hits the wall too many times on his way down and fell unconscious. The tiger head up above roared one last time before sinking back into the sand from where it came from. Vanitas looked astounded as he sits in the sand. Vanitas then laughs evilly and threw his disguise off, making Meowth pant in relief, glad to be out while Steelbeak, Don Karnage, and their henchmen appeared)*

Vanitas: We did it!

Don Karnage: (Laughing evilly in agreement) And the lamp's all ours!

*(Vanitas reached into his pocket where he put the lamp in. But all he could feel is nothing but air. Vanitas searches his pocket frantically)*

Vanitas: Wait. Where is it?

Negaduck: (Getting angry) You lost it?!

*(Suddenly realizing, Vanitas spoke up)*

Vanitas: Those three boys must have taken it!

Negaduck: Then open the cave again!

*(Megavolt noticed the two scarab halves have melted)*

Megavolt: Uh, big shocking problem....

*(They see the melted halves and got shocked)*

Vanitas, Steelbeak, and Don Karnage: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

*(The shout then echoed into the night)*

***Coming up: Sonic's group, along with Marahute, have survived, but are trapped in the closed empty underground cave. They then discover what the lamp is upon close inspection, a magic vessel containing a certain funny whimsical Mobian crocodile who'll help grant only Sonic three wishes and help them escape the cave. Back at the palace, Cloud and Aerith learn from their daughters about the secret execution and after Vanitas and his men are berated for this, they then secretly decide to come up with a new plot to get the throne.***
