Chris
My name's Christopher. Sonic landed in our swimming pool last night and I dove in and saved him.
My name's Tails and I'm Sonic's very best buddy! Right, Sonic?
My name is Cream and this is my very special Chao friend, Cheese. Thanks for having us.
Chris
It's very nice to meet all of you. I have a feeling that we are going to become really good friends. Oh, and this is my grandfather.
CChuck
Extraordinary. Tiny, radio-controlled airplanes. Extraordinary.
We got lots of neat gadgets.
Chris
Listen, Sonic! This isn't some game we're playing, you know. You could've gotten all of us thrown in jail!
Maybe I could, but I didn't, did I?
Chris
Couldn't you try to be more careful?
CChuck
This is an amazing piece of equipment. It goes beyond anything I have ever seen. How did you develop it?
It's nothing special. Not in the world we come from.
CChuck
And where is exactly that world, Tails?
Beats me, but I think we got here through a warp in time and space.
CChuck
Hmm, very interesting. Not very helpful, but interesting.
I just thought of something. If you and me and Cream and Cheese are here, maybe the others got here too.
You might be right about that, Tails, and if you are, that means, maybe...
[A flashback of Eggman from the first episode of him holding the red Chaos Emerald appears.]
STSonic, Tails and Cream
Eggman's here too!
EElla
So the only nutty thing in my kitchen is my pecan pie! What a relief! I'm so happy that you don't have to hide from me anymore, sweetie.
Yeah, we can be friends and I can help you out in the kitchen.
EElla
You're such a dear, I'm sure that your mother misses you terribly. [cries]
Please don't worry. Sonic and my friends will find a way to get us all back home, and you can take care of me until then.
EElla
I will, Cream. I will.
[Sonic and Chris look on.]
Now that Ella knows we're here, we can have the run of this place.
Chris
Sure. Uh... [turns to leave]
[notices Chris sadly walked away] Huh? Chris?
[Sonic went to Chris' room, he opens the door and sees Chris, with a glum expression, sitting on his bed.]
What’s wrong? Why are you sad?
Chris
I didn't mean it when I complained about my mom missing the party, but Cream got really angry. I didn't even think about how bad she misses her mother. I... just hope she doesn't stay mad at me.
[winks] Don't worry, it'll be okay.
[takes a look at her passport ID and becomes angry at the photo she just looked at] I look terrible!
Chris
You do?
Why did they have to use this picture?! I look like a lunatic!
TTanaka
Now now, Ms. Amy, I wouldn't exactly say it makes you look like a lunatic... exactly.
It makes me look like an insane, off-the-wall, out-of-control maniac! I HATE IT!!!
Chris
Sonic, are you gonna race against my uncle Sam?
[He heads inside.]
SSam
Hey, wait! You know, for a hedgehog, you sure are spineless!
[He follows Sonic.]
[Sam throws open the door to the lab, with Chuck shortly behind.]
SSam
Hey, Sonic! We have a race!
[He awakens Tails, who was sleeping.]
Wha?! [Sleepily] Morning already?
Hey look, Cream. Someone's here to see ya.
[Cream turns around and sees who it is.]
VVanilla
I've finally found... my baby!
[Cream is overwhelmed.]
[They embrace in a big hug.]
[The others watch the joyful reunion.]
Chris
[To Sonic] Cream's mother.
Oh no! THE MASTER EMERALD'S GONE!!!
[Chris is seated in a chair, carefully loading the Master Emerald into position. Tails supervises from the cockpit of the Blue Typhoon.]
The readings look good, Chris.
Chris
The Master Emerald oughta give us enough power to go interstellar!
[angry, offscreen] HEY! [The group turns to see him run in.] What's the idea?!
We're gonna borrow your Master Emerald for a little while.
No way! It goes back where it was!
But we need it to go into outer space.
[Incredulous] Outer space?
We have to find the seven Chaos Emeralds so we have enough power to defeat Metarex.
We're going to travel across the galaxy, battle Metarex and save planets! Doesn't it sound like the best adventure ever?
[shuts his eyes, shaking in stress] It sounds just peachy.
[to Sonic, shouting] Now gimme back that Emerald, Sonic, or I'll come up there and take it!
[shakes in fury] Listen to you! You should be ashamed!
The fate of the entire galaxy is at stake!
[Knuckles cowers back as Amy approaches him holding her hammer.]
But if you won't listen to reason... maybe I could knock some reason into you. It'd be a pleasure. [Her eye twinkles dangerously.]
H-Hey, let's calm down... [Amy inches forward again. Then she, Cream and Cosmo begin aggravating the poor echidna, panicking] Sonic, please help me!
I'd like to, but I don't get involved in fights I can't win. You're on your own. [wink]
Chris
If it's the same Plasma Shield as before, we should be able to beat it the same way! Ring Road!
[He fires the Ring Road at Zelkova while he battles Knuckles as the Radical Highway theme song, "Vengeance is Mine" from the game Sonic Adventure 2 starts playing.]
[about the device that the Metarex planted inside Cosmo's head] Can we stop it?
Chris
I'm not sure. If we do she won't be the same. The signal is controlling her sight and hearing. If we remove it she may not be able to hear or see again.
[Growls] Then that's a chance we have to take.
How can you say that?! I'm not letting anyone hurt Cosmo!
We don't want to hurt her. We just want to set her free, and if she has to lose her eyes and ears, then so be it!
There has to be another way!
[Sonic approaches Chris.]
Hey there, Chris. You still up here workin'?
Chris
Finally makin' some headway. This stuff is pretty complex.
Well, if anyone can figure it out, it's you, buddy. [looks over to see what Chris is doing.]
Chris
Man, there sure is a lot of data inside of this thing. [holds up Leon's device.]
Chris
Plenty. In fact, I'm still downloading it all. [analyzes the data.] There's a lot I haven't figured out, but what I have is pretty amazing, like this stuff here. Remember the data that Tails and Cosmo collected from that underground Metarex factory? Well, I was able to cross-reference it, and here's what I found. It's some kind of plan to wipe out all flesh and blood creatures of all kinds until the whole galaxy is populated only by trees and plant life.
[A shot of a forest planet is shown.]
Chris
[Voice-over] Plant life! There it is! There's the whole Cosmo connection! [On screen] Why didn't we see it back then, Sonic? How else could she have figured out that Metarex language? [A shot of Cosmo reading Metarex writing from An Underground Odyssey is shown. Right now, Tails is in his room, looking at a picture.] Maybe we could have done something. Maybe it would have been different if we-- [It is a picture of the party Cosmo threw.]
[Voice-over] Dwelling on the past isn't gonna make it easier, pal.
Chris
[Voice-over] Yeah, I suppose you're right. I just don't wanna see anyone get hurt, that's all.
[Cosmo is in her room, washing her face.]
Chris
[Voice-over] Tails was so upset before. Poor guy's heart is breaking. [On screen] Not to mention Cosmo. Can't be easy for her.
We'll get through it, pal.
Chris
Huh?
We've been through worse before, and we made it through okay, right?
[Chris nods.]
It's gonna be okay. One day, all of this will be over. I promise.
