Squad Commander Blue, this is Squad Commander Red.

Initiate Operation: Cheese.

Possible rebel suspect.

Inspection initiated.

Scanning for rebel soldiers.

Resistance icon identified.

It's a trap.

Now!

Recording initiated.

Eat plasma, you dirty bots.

Blue hedgehog detected.

Whoa!

I'm back in New Yolk City?

How did I end up back...

For a better tomorrow!

Who's with me?

New Yolk City isn't quite how I remember it.

Sonic?

Never thought I'd see your smug mug again.

Where were you?

Dude, I had zero intention of leaving you.

I touched the Shard and I got zipped into another world

with another you fighting another battle.

Shard?

You mean that energy crystal thingy?

Yeah. That.

Shard?

Anyway, super stoked to be back to help

with whatever the heck's going on here.

Where's Nine? I gotta pick his brain

about this other Shard I found.

Nine? I ought to be asking you the same question.

Now do me a solid and pipe down.

I got shells to crack.

Nice spin attack, by the way.

But I bet you can't do this.

Retreat.

Still bummed about me disappearing.

Come on.

All right. Everybody scatter.

First, they steal our energy crystal.

Now these ants decide to stand up for themselves?

How dare they.

The baby is right.

We won't rest until every last rebel

has been sentenced to oblivion.

Or until our backup power runs out.

Sonic is back.

I had zero intention of leaving you.

I touched the Shard and I got zipped

into another world with another you

fighting another battle.

Another world?

And what does he mean by "Shard"?

He means the energy crystal. Duh.

Where's Nine? I gotta pick his brain

about this other Shard I found.

What? Another Shard?

We can power a city with one Shard.

Imagine what we could do with two Shards.

There might be like several Shards.

Huh?

We have to find that hedgehog.

If he's seen another Shard,

then maybe he can lead us to it.

If my readings are correct,

the last indication of his energy

was in Deep's District.

Let's smoke them out.

Send in the bots.

I take it you radioed ahead

and let Rebel know what's what.

I did.

Look who decided to drop in.

Welcome back.

Here to face the music?

Depends what kind of music.

Am I sensing a negative vibe?

Using us to help you steal the Shard

then deserting us as soon as you got what you came for?

Yeah, I'd say the vibe is pretty negative.

I should let the Chaos Council turn you into a handbag.

Uh, I thought you explained everything.

I did. She didn't care.

The rodent is lying. Let's toast him.

I didn't steal the Shard.

But your fox friend did,

right before he left us high and dry.

He did?

And to think we believed in you.

After sticking our necks out like we did.

Backup systems engaged.

They have the energy crystal!

Got it.

Find them. They can't be far.

Initiating system override.

Chaos Council programming restored.

Word of our work spread throughout the city.

Our army grew without you or that traitorous fox.

And, tonight, we finally finish what we started.

I skip town for a day and you cook up a revolution?

A day? You've been gone weeks.

Weeks? Really?

Time must move differently there.

All that matters right now

is taking out the council while we still can.

If they get that energy crystal back,

we're done for.

Nine won't let that happen.

You tell us where he is

and we'll make sure he doesn't.

- How would I know? - I smell baloney.

- Let's put the screws to him. - Come on, boss.

Let me tear this scoundrel limb from limb.

Screws and baloney would taste terrible.

There's better ways to get more iron in your diet.

Jokes? After all we've been through?

Don't you understand what's at stake?

It's a symbol of the life we deserve,

growing and thriving in peace.

If we lose this fight,

there won't be anything left to fight for.

The palm.

Ta-da!

I'm sorry I wasn't there when you needed me,

but I'm not a traitor and neither is Nine.

Let me prove it to you.

Let me fight by your side.

It's the Chaos Council.

They've located us.

Secure the tree!

How did they find us?

It can't be a coincidence.

Everyone up top

before our location is compromised.

They are somewhere near. Continue the attack.

We will force them out.

Not on my watch, automaton.

Surrender the energy crystal and we'll promise

to make your demise quick and painless.

We need backup.

Sonic, hang on!

Nine?

You got a plane... kinda.

Wait. Was that an energy portal?

How did he do that?

It's the fox who stole the Shard.

Get him!

Nine! Holy, man. Just in time!

We could really use some backup.

Whoa. Whoa. Where are we going?

We got a fight on our hands back there and...

What did you just do?

- I opened a portal. - Whoa.

I think I cross through here

every time I enter the other worlds.

I call them Shatterspaces.

Huh, I guess that makes sense.

Really glad to see you but we have to go back.

- The rebels need my help. - Not until you tell me

- where you've been. - Well...

Whoa.

Then you showed up in your spaceship

and pulled me into this portal thingy.

That confirms what I've discovered.

From the moment you vanished,

I suspected there was more to the Shard than I'd realized.

So you did take it.

Yeah, that and I hacked into their power core schematics.

Pretty elementary.

So I adapted them and created the Shatter Drive.

Now we can travel the Shatterverse at our discretion.

Shatter what?

This is cool and everything

but we really gotta get back to New Yolk.

I have to show you what I found.

Another world?!

Welcome to our bright new future.

I call it The Grim.

Yeah, that seems accurate.

What?

Fascinating.

Your shoes have recalibrated to The Grim.

Yeah, I get a fancy upgrade

every time I enter a new Shatterspace.

Huh. Prism energy truly is magnificent.

We're only just scratching the surface of its capabilities.

Be on the lookout for whacked-out versions of you,

me, or anyone else you might know.

That's the best part of all.

There's no one here. It's a clean slate.

The perfect place to start over and get the world right.

With the proper fortifications and enough Shard energy,

it could be home.

The one you lost.

The one I never had.

I can make that hope a reality, for both of us.

Look, Nine, it's incredible but it's not going anywhere.

And those rebels really need our help.

Come with me. Help me finish the fight.

That city never brought me anything but misery.

I owe it nothing.

I'll help you get back...

but I have work to do.

I hope I see you in New Yolk.

Sonic.

- Huh? - Sonic.

- I'm out. - Same.

Lousy Egg tech. You can't trust it.

Surrender the energy crystal.

Or tell us where the hedgehog went. We're not picky.

We don't know where they are.

And wouldn't tell you if we did.

Spill it, punks, or we'll spill something else.

I got a better idea.

How about you bums line up and kiss my bright red...

Another portal?

Uh, I know, I know.

No more vanishing into thin air.

Let's just beat these guys to a pulp

and if you still think I'm a traitor,

then you can screw my baloney.

Better late than never.

That's the spirit.

Hey. Play nice.

Isn't it past your bedtime?

Get ready to give it everything you got.

Pull!

Oh, I love this game.

Let's see what you're made of, blue.

Hit the jets.

Comin' in hot. Take cover!

How is a baby so mean?

Rebel!

Ah-ah-ah.

A noble effort.

It wasn't noble. It was annoying.

Enough games.

Hand over the crystal,

or we'll stick you in a hamster wheel

and see how long you can keep the lights on before you drop.

Pace yourself, Dr. Babble.

And while we're at it,

do tell about another world with another Shard.

That's what you're calling the energy crystal, aren't you?

- We're all ears. - Really?

I mean, I'd say you're more jowls but I honestly

have no idea what you're talking about.

This should jog your memory.

Rusty Amy? Yes! Butt kicking time.

Rusty Rose.

I have returned to my original directive

under the Chaos Council.

Oh, no butt kicking.

I had zero intention of leaving you

and I got zipped into another world with another you

fighting another battle. Where's Nine?

I gotta pick his brain about this other Shard I found.

Gulp.

You will talk, cretin,

or you will scream.

Did he just do that portal thingy again?

My scan indicates he has the Shard.

There is heavy prismatic energy on the craft.

This confirms everything we've suspected.

And more.

The Shard was never just an energy source.

Nine, you came!

When this is over, I'm going home

and never looking back. Whether I go it alone

is entirely up to you.

I knew you'd come back, buddy.

He's using our Shard's energy to teleport somehow.

He's not teleporting.

That fox has figured out how to travel to other worlds.

The plan has changed.

We need to capture that craft.

Deep, Babble, full volley at the rebel HQ.

I'll lure the fox away.

Don't, Done It, prepare the mother ship.

Yeah. Fine. Whatevs.

I'll take 'em low. You take 'em high.

Already on it.

We're back on. Let's take these clowns down

once and for all.

Once again,

better late than never.

Hey, I never let you down, Rebel.

When you say "never," you do mean "all the time?"

No time for small talk.

What an amateur.

Time to put some scuff marks

on that fancy paint job.

I've got this weasel on the run. Prepare for launch!

Time to go home.

Eggforcers, keep them distracted.

Fox shmox,

what we've got here is a sitting duck.

No, no, no, no!

Come on, come on, come on.

One more portal and I'm home free.

No!

Rusty, the vermin is on the bus.

I repeat, the vermin is on the bus.

Eggforcers, finish them off. We have what we need.

Yes! We did it!

- You guys good? - We're good.

Not sure what happened to your friend though.

I don't like this. The Shard could be anywhere.

You're right. I better find him

before he portals out of here again.

Back in a flash.

I still don't trust that guy.

With our Shard and your tech,

you've just handed us the universe

on a silver platter.
