Oh, yes! You got donuts.
I already ate all the Boston Cream.
Kyle!
This place gives me the creeps.
Relax. That Popsicle hasn't moved in 50 years.

[thunder pealing]
[duck squeaks] Wait a second.
I thought we were going tubing.
Hold on, hold on. Is this a race?
You're going down!
It is my destiny to claim the throne
of Family Champion, hedgehog.
[laughs] Cute.
Are you sure you want to challenge
the fastest creature in the universe?
I mean, that's kind of my whole brand.
Okay, Tom and Maddie,
- count us down. - Right!
Don't worry, a little sibling rivalry is healthy.
Me and my brothers used to do this kind of thing all the time.
Tom, your brothers are lunatics and neither of them were born with the power
to trigger a global cataclysmic event.
That's a fair point. Did you hear that, boys?
No cataclysmic events, okay?
Let's keep this cataclysmic-less.
- Ten-four! - Understood, Lord of the Donuts.
Then on your marks, get set...
go!
And way out in front,
to the surprise of absolutely no one,
it's the Blue Blur, the Red-Shoed Rocket,
the one, the only--[Tails] Come on, Sonic!
Catch up! Yeah!
What in the what, now?
I am also defeating you, hedgehog!
Seriously? All right, you know what?
Time to light the afterburners.
Look! It's a bird! It's a plane!
It's Air Hedgehog!
["99 Red Balloons" by Goldfinger playing]
[laughing] Yes! I did it! I...
lost?
How is that even possible? I do not lose.
I am also defeating you, hedgehog.
Okay, okay, I get it, man. No need to rub it in.
Come on, Sonic! Catch up! Yeah!
Wait, what's going on?
[yelps] Why are you guys acting like...
holograms!
Which means...
I remain the undefeated speed champion of all time!
Yes! And the crowd goes wild!
But also, what's going on?
[all] Surprise!
But wait a sec, you guys... [stammering] ...what is all this?
"Happy Bea Arthur Day"?
Oh, it's "Happy B-Earth-Day."
Today's the anniversary of the day you came to Earth, bud.
It's your "Earth Day Birthday."
So the race was just a distraction,
which I totally didn't fall for, by the way--
Good try, though--
so you could throw a party for me?
Today, we honor you, hedgehog.
If it wasn't for you, none of us would be here right now.
The boys are right, bud.
You know, the day you came to this planet
is the day all our lives changed forever.
And we became a family.
[barks] You stole my hoomans.
You guys, I don't... I don't know what to say.
Except... let's party!
[Tom] All right![Sonic] Yeah!
[Knuckles] It's now on till the break of dawn![Tails] Toga! Toga!
Thanks for the surprise party. It really means a lot to me.
Ah, you deserve it, pal.
[gasps] No way. Is that...
What? [sighing] Dude...
Could you just for once walk at my speed?
Whoa.
[chuckling] Sonic!
This is your--Yep. My old cave.
Oh, man. I can't believe this is where you lived all those years.
Hey! My state-of-the-art security system!
[kiais]
[grunts] Still works.
Hey, bud.
What's this?
Wow. You know, I drew that on my first night on Earth.
I wanted to remember where I came from.
I still miss her.
You think Longclaw would be proud of me?
I know she would, pal.
Because even though you lost her at such a young age,
you didn't let your pain change who you are...
in here.
Yeah. In my lungs.
- Or your heart. - Heart, right.
Yeah, makes more sense. Not lungs, heart.
That's the thing about life, Sonic,
it's all about the choices we make.
You're gonna make some good ones and,
knowing you, you're gonna make some bad ones.
But...
as long as you remember to listen to your heart,
you're gonna make the right choice when it matters the most.
Thanks.
I don't know what I'd do without you.
I'd probably be a totally different hedgehog.

I've been trapped for 50 years?

[tires squeal]
Get on the ground now!
We've got you surrounded!
Why won't you leave me alone?
Take him down!
I have dishonored my marshmallow.
It's really just a question of temperature and distance.
It's not a competition.
This is so nice.

Finally.
Finally!

Hey! We're trying to have a family moment down here!
- What did we do? - Or what did they do?
What did you do?
I don't know. I do a lot of stuff.
Mr. and Mrs. Wachowski.
Aliens.
"Aliens"? Excuse me?
It's not like we're from different planet--
Oh, yeah, we are. I guess we are aliens.
Please continue.
I'm Director Rockwell.
There is a very dangerous situation
unfolding right now in Tokyo.
Commander Walters is requesting Team Sonic's immediate assistance.
"Team Sonic"? Who picked that name?
Love it! Ten out of ten, no notes.
Tom and Maddie, put the s'mores on ice
because Team Sonic is off to save the day!
Remember,
make good choices!
["Neon" by ONE OK ROCK playing]
Good evening and welcome to Tails Air flight 1012.
We're looking at an on-time arrival into Tokyo.
Okay, Captain, we got a rogue alien on the loose.
How do we find him?[explosion booming]
Uh, start with the giant fireball?
I love it! Let's start with the giant fireball.
[grunting]
[cackles] Finally, some action!
Okay, time to gear up.
Titanium handcuffs, completely indestructible.
I don't need your silly gizmos, fox.
And you know why? Because I am...
[all] ...one million percent muscle.
Yes, good. You've been listening.
[alert buzzes] We're over the drop zone.
All right, here we go. Showtime!
Now, look, we don't know if it's Godzilla
or Hello Kitty down there,
but as long as we stick together,
there is nothing we can't handle.
"Team Sonic" on three.
One, two, three.
[all] Team...
- Sonic! - Knuckles!
[groans]
Talk about low-budget flights. No food or movies?
We're out of here!
["Neon" continues]
[song ends]
[people screaming][Knuckles] What happened here?
[Sonic] Looks like GUN got their butts kicked.
Keep your eyes open. Tails, anything?
Whoa! These energy readings are off the charts!
[loud crashing]
[Sonic] Look out![Knuckles grunts]
One... million... percent.
[truck crashes]
[heavy footfalls]
Whoa! Are you guys seeing this?
- He looks just like you. - Impossible!
You're a colorful bunch.
Um, excuse me. Why do you look like me?
I don't look like you.
You look like me! Why do you look like me?
Hey, you know what? I'll ask the questions, new hedgehog!
Who are you? Why do you look like me?
This is a waste of time.
Walk away, before you get hurt.
Whoa, whoa, easy, buddy.
We don't want to fight you.
Actually, Sonic, I would like to fight.
Not now.[Knuckles growls]
Why don't you stop throwing cars at us for a second
and come down here to talk?
You jumped out of a GUN helicopter.
There's nothing to talk about.
All right, then. Enough!
Knuckles, no!
Let us talk with our fists!
[fist crunching][yells]
[grunts]
[grunts sharply]
[both] Knuckles!
Knuckles! Knuckles, are you okay?
No, not really. Ow!
[Tails] Who is this guy?
He is much more impressive
than the hedgehog I fought previously.
Dude, I'm standing right here.
Now, come on! He can't take us all at once.
[Tails] Ow![Knuckles grunts]
[Sonic grunts]
[yelling]
[breathless] Okay, he took us all at once.
Weakling.
[groans]
Don't try to follow me.
[motor revving]
Sonic, I know that look.
Going after him is a bad idea.
When has that ever stopped me?
I got to ask, one hedgehog to another,
who does your highlights?
[growls]
[horn blares]
Hey! Dangerously weaving through traffic is my thing!
[loud grunt]
Coming through!
[yelps]
Why are you running away? We were just getting started.
[both shriek]
The more you talk,
the harder I want to hit you.
[yelling]
Watch out!
Ugh, I'm gonna throw up!

Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Yah!
[grunting heavily]
[machinery powering on]
[groans] 1.21 gigawatts.
[metal clinking]
Oh, you've got to be kidding me!
[Tails] Sonic!
Are you okay?
I'm fine, guys. And before you ask,
I handcuffed myself for tactical reasons
that I do not have time to explain.
You shouldn't have gone off on your own.
We're supposed to be a team.
Sorry, buddy. I'm still working on this teamwork thing.
So now what?
Well, I'm not jumping out of any more helicopters
until we get some answers from GUN.
We need somewhere to regroup.
I know just the place.
["Lollipop" by TEMPURA KIDZ playing]
[all clapping]
Hai, chiizu.[yelps]
It's an ambush!
You'll never take us alive, foul beasts!
Calm down, Knuckles. This is a Chao Garden.
One of the top ten must-see spots in all of Tokyo!
It's a perfect place for us to blend in.
Are you Detective Pikachu?
Yes, he is!
[chortles] He does look like a Pokémon.
"Pika, pika!" [laughs]
Commander Walters!
Sonic.
Thank God you're all okay. I'm sure you have questions.
Just a big ticked-off red and black one.
Who was that guy?
Shadow's story began a lot like yours, Sonic.
But where you found family and friends on this planet,
Shadow found only pain and loss.
It begins over 50 years ago,
with a meteor crash in a quiet corner of Oklahoma.
The meteorite contained a life-form.
The ultimate life-form.
Shadow's power-- his "chaos energy"--
went far beyond any living creature.
The scientist who discovered him believed this power
would usher in a new era for humanity.
But Shadow's power proved too dangerous.
A terrible accident destroyed the lab,
taking human lives with it.[siren wailing]
The project leader was blamed for the incident and imprisoned.
With the program canceled...[yelps in pain]
...Shadow was a loose end no one knew how to deal with.
Too dangerous to be walking free,
too valuable to destroy.
So I had him placed into stasis...
indefinitely.
Wait a second. If Shadow's been on ice for 50 years,
- someone had to help him escape. - True.
But there's only a few people in the world
who even know of Shadow's existence.

Commander Walters!
[Knuckles grunts]
[Sonic] Commander Walters, are you okay?
Sonic...
[painful grunt]
...take this.
[Sonic] What is it?[Walters] A key...
to the most powerful weapon GUN has ever built.
You're the only one I trust to keep it safe.
[exhales weakly]
Commander Walters...
[sirens, vehicles approaching][gasps]
[indistinct shouts]
Alpha team, fan out!
Do we have eyes?
Secure the perimeter!
Medevac is en route.
[indistinct radio chatter]
His launch key is missing.
I knew they couldn't be trusted.
[all exclaiming]
[Tails] Why are we running from GUN?
Aren't we on the same team?
[Sonic] Until we get more information,
we're not trusting anyone.
- Follow me. - Get it... off!
Hold it right there, Tokyo Drift!
Who are you?
[gasps] It's the Goat Milker!
[mimicking Knuckles] "It's the Goat Milker!"
Relax. I'm not here to fight.
- Then why are you here? - And why did you free Shadow?
Are you kidding?
The last thing we want is more super-powered hedgehogs running around.
The doctor had nothing to do with it.
And I can prove it.[car alarm chirps]
Please,
join me in the crab.
[narrator] And now back to... "La UÚltima Pasión."
I have fallen in love with another.
[gasps]
But who, Gabriella? Tell me who!
My twin brother, Pablo?
Pablo!
!¡Bastardo!
Buenos días, !¡hermano!
No!
[cackling]
Let that be a lesson to you, Juan.
[beeping] Family
is a field of emotional claymores
that leave you abandoned, betrayed
and weeping while you eat cake,
which creates copious amounts of adipose tissue,
and what some calloused individuals refer to as...
[sniffs deeply] ...man boobs.
Ha.
[up-tempo Latin jazz playing]
[slapping along with the congas]
[trilling loudly]
[shrieking]
Doctor, we have visitors.
Really?
I thought I was having an anthropomorphic nightmare.
Where the only person I could trust in the world
showed up with all my worst enemies,
while I was in a bathrobe,
playing congas on my big, fat belly!
Sorry, sir.
I don't believe it. Eggman's alive?
And he's never looked worse.
[cackling] Well, maybe,
this is what not giving a damn what you think I look like looks like.
Sir, right now we have an even bigger problem.
Oh, come on.
There's an imposter out there using your technology.
Imposter. That's impossi-- What?
No.
My sweet mechanized spawn!
Whomever this party-pooping posse is looking for
has stolen my persona
and the precious babies from my egg sac.
Well...
I'll soon egg-xact my revenge.
You see what I did there?[chuckles]
It's time for the dramatic soap-opera twist,
where this Pablo reveals his Juan!
By cross-referencing the precise coordinates
of each drone's energy spikes,
I can track my babies
to the imposter's base of operations,
right about...
there!
Sonic, I hate to say it,
but I think we're both after the same person.
Hold on, hold on. You're not suggesting we team up
with Doctor Ro-Butt-Stink, are you?
Perhaps the fox is right.
It could be our only chance to find this mysterious,
more impressive hedgehog.
[groans]
All right, Egghead. I hate to say it,
but it looks like we're partners.
On one condition.
Dude, you have serious issues.
Ow!
[gibbering spasm]
Let's...
do this!
["Firestarter" by The Prodigy playing]
[pained groan]

But sir, I don't have the proper materials.
Found some.
Resourceful.

Hey! This is a restricted area.
Oh, it's okay. She's the professor's granddaughter.
He takes her everywhere.
Welcome to the lab, Maria. I'm Captain Walters.
Oh, do you know where my room is?
Yeah, down the hall and to the right.
Make yourself at home.

Wow.

They're like diamonds.

it can take hundreds of years
for the light of a star to reach Earth.
And by the time you see it,
the star might not even exist anymore.
Isn't that crazy?
A light shines,
even though the star is gone.
Yeah, it does.
I wonder which one you came from, Shadow.
I don't know.
I don't know anything about my home.
This is your home, Shadow.
Earth.
Maria,
do you think I'm...
dangerous?
What are you talking about?
The way the scientists look at me,
I can tell they're afraid.
Like I'm the horrible thing from that movie we watched.
I don't know...
what I am.
You're my friend.
And you can do or be anything you want.
Not because of your powers,
but because of who you are... in here.
I don't know what I'd do without you.
["End of the Line" resumes]
[song ends abruptly]
[dust crackling]
[footfalls]
Professor?
It's good to see you, Shadow.
I knew you'd come home.
I can't get her out of my head.
The pain...
It's too much.
And that is why we have to punish them.
Okay, I don't like you and you don't like me.
Let's get this over with quickly.
Out of my way, dorkupine.
"Dorkupine"? Really clever.
[hollow tapping]
This door is six-inch-thick solid steel
on a pressurized latch.
I'll need a moment to calculate the molecular density
and invert the venting mechanics.
[thunderous crash]
[Knuckles] I unlocked it.
[Robotnik] Subtle as always, fist-for-brains.
Easy, Shadow.
Those are the guests I've been expecting.
Let's give them a warm welcome.
[Stone] Whoa.
What is this place?
[Sonic] It looks like a military base,
but nobody's been here for years.
I wonder if it's haunted.
Haunted? Nobody said anything about being haunted.
What's the matter? You afraid of g-g-g-ghosts?
Nothing scares an Echidna warrior.
Uh, yeah. Do you remember what happened last movie night?
[screaming in terror]
[piercing scream][all yelling]
Let go, let go, let go!
There is no such thing as a friendly ghost.
[Sonic] So which way do we go?
I know! We should split up.
Everyone with hideous, brightly-colored fur take the left and the middle.
Stone and I will go right.
No, no, no, no, no. I'm not letting you out of my sight.
Tails, you and Stone go left.
Knuckles, you take the middle. Eggman, you and me go right.
By all means.
We could use some time together.
To work on your trust issues.
You know what? You're right. I should be more trusting.
I mean, you've only tried to kill me twice!
Just a dark, creepy hallway.
Nothing to be afraid of.
You hear that, ghost?
You don't frighten me!
[steam hissing][yells]
Get... a... grip.
Boo.[screams]
I'm just gonna come right out and say this:
You're adorable.[chuckles] Oh, um, thanks.
So, what's it like being Sonic's assistant?
You have a daily routine? Paid time off? Benefits?
Oh, I'm not Sonic's assistant. We're teammates.
He's the leader, Knuckles is the muscle,
and I'm the gadget guy.
We all have a role to play.
That's what makes the team so special!
That and the fact we're best friends.
You are?
Well, yeah. Just like you and Eggman, right?
Uh... Yeah, eh...
Of course! Yes.
Me and the doctor, best of friends.
That's definitely what we are.
[metallic clattering]
[squeaking]
Hmm.
[both screaming]
Whoa. Look at all this stuff.
This was more than just a military base or a lab.
It was a home.
People lived here.
He had a family.
Is that what I smell?
The stench of domestic harmony?
You ever wonder what your life would have been like if you had a family?
Hmm... No!
Maybe you wouldn't have gone full supervillain.
I have no parents, no aunts, no uncles.
And something about my attitude renders me...
undesirable to all possible genders.
My future is a cul-de-sac!
The Robotnik name ends...
avec moi.
Yes, I know French.
[shuddering spasm]
Whoa.
Is this where you grew up, Shadow?
No wonder you're so mad.
This place could really use a beanbag chair
and some comic books.
What happened here?

You didn't bring me here!

You'll see.

Yep, we're that stupid.
GUN took everything from us.
And now we are going to take everything from them.
[Gerald] With this.

The Eclipse Cannon.
In exchange for my freedom,
I gave GUN the most powerful weapon
mankind has ever seen,
capable of delivering a precision strike
anywhere on Earth.
Our first target:
GUN Headquarters.
But firing a weapon that powerful
could threaten millions of innocent lives!
Yeah, tera-bite me.[cackles]
This is one of two keys required to launch the Eclipse Cannon.
The other is locked inside GUN headquarters.
Once we have both,
I will take rightful control of my weapon.
I'm in.

Thank you so much
for inspiring this little adventure.

Oh! This is...
[in puppet voice] ...Li'l Tom!
[normal voice] Isn't he great?
I told you to get rid of that. It's very creepy.
[puppet voice] I told him to get rid of you.
[normal voice] Okay, that's, mmm...
- crossing a line there. - You are in so much trouble.
Okay, this is it. The belly of the beast.
GUN Headquarters in London.
[gasps] Tom, we're finally gonna get to see London together.
Hey, I told you we'd get there someday, baby.
Okay. So here's the plan.
I run in superfast,
fly over that water, no problem,
and right when I get to the--
[shrieks] What just happened?
Congratulations.
You just got incinerated by their energy shield.
We'll need to shut it down by planting a USB drive in their server room
that will give me full control over it.
That's what we need you two for.
Couple of badass spies, that's what we are.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
[Tails] Once we disable the shield,
you'll face the laser hall.
[grunts]
These high-density bad boys will cut you into tiny pieces.
And cut those pieces into even tinier pieces!
Once again... [shrieks]
Can't we just get Tom Cruise to do this?[Tails] Nope.
Because not even he could break into... the vault.
[Sonic] Why is it empty in there?
[Tails] Because we have no idea
what's on the other side of that door.
To prevent the vault from ever being accessed by a ring,
all images and schematics have been wiped from GUN's database.
So for the last leg of this heist...
[in puppet voice] ...we're going in blind.
Sorry.
[Maddie] Okay, I'm just gonna say it.
It sounds like this plan would work a heck of a lot better
if Sonic used the Master Emerald to go Golden God mode
to get the key.
No way, Maddie.
The Master Emerald is too powerful to ever use again.
We made a promise to each other to keep it hidden.
In a location only Knuckles knows.
As guardian of the Master Emerald,
anyone who tries to take it away for any reason...
will become a sworn enemy.
Okay, okay! Sheesh!
No need to get all growly on me, buddy.
You guys are always telling us to make good choices.
Well, this is the right choice.
Okay.
I guess we're going to...
["London Town" by Mr Eazi playing]
London, baby!
GUN Headquarters is right there.
Let me go in, get the key and destroy anyone in my way!
I want revenge.
[Gerald] Patience, Shadow.
Just let us handle this...
and I promise you'll have revenge
on a scale you couldn't possibly imagine.
Come on, Granddaddy-O, we've got...
dirt to do!
Suits.
Right here, sir.
Stone, babysit the hedgehog.
Keep the crab on a low boil.
It's time for more family bonding.
Come on, Shadow.
Got fresh avocados in the crab. We'll make guac.
Revenge guac!
Guys, are you ready for me yet? I've been waiting here all day.
Sonic, we literally just started.
Tom, Maddie, are you in position and ready?
- We were born ready. - Let's do this.
[Tails] Knuckles, how about you?
I have taken my perch atop the giant clock.
Now, where is this glass I'm supposed to break?
Actually, Knucks, your job
is to "Break Glass in Case of Emergency."
Understood.
I will shatter this glass like the jaw of a vile foe.
In case of emergency.
I will pulverize it like the skull of a loathsome rival!
Just to be clear, the "emergency" is the important part.
The glass will beg for mercy
under the shadow of my mighty fist!
Guys, remember, we're a team.
- Let's focus. - Please.
[Sonic] You know what? Let's move on.
All right, everyone knows what to do.
Tom and Maddie, you guys plant the USB drive.
I'll disable the traps. Sonic will snag the launch key.
And Knuckles, you stand by to--
Break glass in case of emergency.
See? He gets it.
Then we're all set.
Hologram time.
You go first.
Tom, it's me, Rachel!
Can you believe it? We're both in London together.
Have you met your sister? Try again.
Unless...
you're not up for this mission.
Yeah, maybe you want to be back in Green Hills, baking sourdough.
- Thomas Michael Wachowski! - Gah!
You brought aliens to my wedding,
punched out my husband and buried me in an avalanche.
Your day of reckoning is at hand!
Yeah, that's perfect.
Okay, now for her better half.
Ho-ho, my name is Randall, and I am too much to handle!
Welcome to the gun show!
Baby, would you describe me as jacked, juiced,
or shredded?
I would describe your head as swollen.
Let's get to work.
Agent Randall Handel.
I'm here to have lunch with my lovely wife, Rachel.
[desk guard] I'm sorry, Agent Handel,
this facility's currently locked down.
Command-level clearance only.
One minute.
Tails... we have a problem here.
Wow, they must have tightened security after Shadow's escape.
I got this.
You must be new here.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rachel.
Rachel Gonnagetyoufired.
Do you know what GUN stands for?
Well, 'course. Guardian Units--[mimics buzzer]
Getting. Ultra. Nasty.
Do you want me...
to get ultra nasty?
Nasty nasty?
- No, ma'am. - Okay, then.
Then go ahead and take those little sad fingers
and start tippity type-type-typing!
Mm-hmm. That's right, go on.
Sorry for the inconvenience, ma'am.
Mm-hmm.
That's what I thought!
My God, I love being Rachel!
- Did it work? - Oh, yeah.
Oh! Ouch!
Director Rockwell seeking access to the server room.
Just one moment, ma'am.
Oh, no. No, no, no, no. It's her. It's the real her!
- The incident in Colorado? - We're still assessing.
What do you mean, we're still assessing?
- What do we do? - Quick, change faces!
Okay. Did it work?
Who am I? What's going on?
Why are you looking at me like that? What am I doing wrong?
[grunts] Ow!
Aye-aye, Captain!
"Aye-aye, Captain"? Who are you, Popeye?
- I panicked! I was panicking! - Jeez!
Get it together!
Okay, Tails, what are we looking for?
The security server is in the 7th row, 23rd cabinet.
Are you guys finished yet? This is taking forever.
[people exclaiming][Sonic] Uh-oh.
Has the time come to break the glass?
Or at least break something?
All right, hang tight, guys. Maddie's about to insert the drive.
Ready?
Three...
two...
one...
Go.
It didn't work.
Did you put it in the right way?
- Try punching it. - Do not try punching it.
Oh!
Take it out - and blow on it. - Yes!
Oh, come on, Tom.
There's absolutely no scientific evidence to support--
[machines thrumming]
Never mind. It worked!
Little trick from the '90s.
I mean, best decade ever. Right?
I'm shutting down the outside sensors now.
Yes! Uh...
Hold on. Is...
there supposed to be another USB drive here?
[Tom] One with a giant mustache on it?
Oh, no. I've got two heat signatures en route to the vault.
Which can only mean...
The Robotniks have entered the chat.
Wait.
Poppyseed?
Grand-geezer?
¿Dónde está?
I'm right here.
If you weren't family,
I could have gut you like a pheasant.
I mean, try to keep up.
[narrator] And now back to "La UÚltima Pasión."
UÚltima Pasión...
can only belong to one.
No.
It can only belong... to Juan!
Gabriella should kill them both.
She's not a prize to be won.
"Kill this. Murder that."
You need to lighten up, Shadow. We're about to rule the world.
When we're done...
there won't be anything left to rule.
That is dark. Even for you.
What are you and the professor up to?
Hello! What's this?
I knew I saw an outside signal!
Cheerio!
I guess someone forgot to flush.
[gasps]
[Stone screaming]
[both panting]
What now, my cunning cohort?
Just a little teamwork!
[yelping]
[wheezing gasp]
Hey...
The lasers...
don't seem to be penetrating my suit.
They're conforming to the shape of my bodacious bod.
Of course.
I designed these suits to create a field
of laser-bending thermal distortion.
Wasn't sure it would work till now.
You're heartless, son.
- Hmm! - Rotten to the core.
- Mm-hmm. - I'm...
so proud.
So now we can just dance right through.
That sounds like a challenge.

Oh, they're planning on stealing a second key, just like you are?
Yes, I'm aware.
I called it the second Commander Walters was attacked.
So...
thank you for taking the bait

I don't believe this.

Enough! It's over.
The only way you're leaving here is in handcuffs.
There is no other way out.
You know, there might be one other way out.

Thanks for the save.
Cutting it a little close, don't you think?
Secure the room!
She's got the key.
I got an idea.
Commander Walters.
Sir.
You're... Still alive?
I'll die before I let that key fall into the wrong hands.
Thanks for keeping it safe.
I'll take it from here.
That's an order, Director Rockwell.
Now, organize the reinforcements.
Yes, sir.
Guys, guys, I got the key. I repeat, I got the key.
Now let's get out of here.

Doctor, I have a bad feeling about this.
I don't think your grandfather's been completely honest with us.
It was something Shadow said.
There's more to their plan.
How dare you!
You have been jealous of my long-lost grand-Pop-Tart
since the very beginning!
I no longer require your obsequious groveling.
Consider this your notice of termination.

Of course, I'll expect you to stay on

But you and I are done!

It'll be okay, Sonic.
It'll be okay?
Tom is fighting for his life and you think it'll be okay?
The fox is simply trying to comfort you.
Comfort's not what I need right now.
I need to stop them. By any means necessary.
Wait, you don't mean--
The Master Emerald.
The Emerald must never be wielded for vengeance.
Not ever!
We swore a sacred oath.
Don't talk to me about oaths. Not now!
But you told Tom using the Emerald
wasn't the right choice.
Well, now it's the only choice.
And if neither of you have the guts to help me,
then I'll do it alone.
But I thought the three of us were a team.
I thought that's what made us special.
I'm not asking you twice, Knuckles.
Where is the Master Emerald?
Your heart is being consumed by anger, hedgehog.
You are in no condition to make decisions right now.
I know you're upset about Tom. We all are.
Last chance.
Where... is it?
Don't do this.
Part of our oath is to trust each other.
And I must abide by that promise,
even if you have chosen to break it.
But heed this warning:
The Master Emerald is guarded by a fearsome warrior.
And to seize this ultimate power,
you will have to go...
through him.

Oh, hey, Sonic. See my goal? Pretty sick, right?
I'm here for the Emerald.
Look, Sonic, I'm sorry.
I promised to guard this emerald with my life.
I will do whatever it takes--
Well, I tried.

The last time I sat beneath stars like this...
I was with her.
I've felt this pain for so long.
It's all I know.
When I lost Longclaw...
I felt the same way.
Did your pain eventually go away?
No.
But in time, I learned there's something
even more powerful than pain.
The love we felt for each other.
That's what you need to hold on to, Shadow.
Maria might be gone,
but your love will always remain.
