Hey, you! You can hear me, right?! As the leader of the defeated Team Jackal, you're taking on the responsibility of cleaning up the mess that they left behind!
Yeah, I know...
How could you... how could you do this to my henchmen...!
As the strongest, mercenary feared by many, I'll show you my power...!
Take thiiiis!
Disgusting.
Don't ever show that ugly loser face of yours again.
Am I... am I shaking...?! Is this fear...?!
Ugh... I am a loser...?! He said I'm a weakling...?
No! ...I am not weak! ...I-I'm not... I'm not weak...!
I AM NOT WEAK! AAAGGHHHH!!
On that day, I threw my old self away, along with my unsightly face.
I've parted with my weakling self to become much stronger, unshakable...
And finally...
I obtained limitless power... power that will make all yield to my will...
I was reborn... into the strongest being!
You should prepare yourself, Sonic...!
I have completed the ultimate weapon, and I poured all my hatred towards you into it!
All history of defeats and memories of humiliation will be paid back to you by a trillionfold!
My long-cherished dream of world domination shall become reality in the form of Eggmanland... no, Eggman Empire!
Hoohohohoho...!
The boss really means it this time!
He sure does...
Are you alright?
Yeah. Thanks, Sonic! Cut it a bit too close, though...
Stuff like this happens all the time, right?
OK! This ends here, Eggman!
This ends for YOU, Sonic...! Have a taste of my new power!
Shadow... you...?
Zavok!?
Metal!?
Chaos!?
What the?
No way...! He's faster than Sonic!?
No, that's not it! "Faster" doesn't fit here...! Whatever it is, I gotta scan and examine it!
How the heck are you... Gaahhh!
Nice!
Tails! What's that guy's power!?
I'm examining it, but the data is all weird! It doesn't make any sense!
Any time now, Tails...!
Sonic!
Eggman's army can't be stopped in any way...!
With Sonic gone, everyone turned timid and won't fight...!
What are we going to do if you turn timid as well, Vector?
I have dreams where Sonic is still with us.
Do you think he is...
I want to believe so too, but this is reality...
Sonic is gone. Tails is, too... his whereabouts are unknown.
Right now, we have to do this without them.
That's right. Over the past 6 months we've been wishing for a miracle, but it really is up to us to create that miracle.
Everyone is terrified by Eggman's army...
In order to encourage them, we have to show them that strength doesn't come from numbers.
But there are people who aren't afraid. A rookie will even come here today, right?
Yeah. One of the survivors from the city area, as I recall.
I'll access the files...
Knuckles! What's the situation on the war?
Seeing that you're all okay is good news alone.
Green Hill's line of defense was defeated by Eggman's army.
According to the report, the defense squad consists of that prick who knocked Sonic out cold...
...Sorry. I keep being reminded of that when I say it.
I could only shiver looking at him.
Except for him. A tough nut who lived through that battle. He will become our new partner.
Hmm. Doesn't look that reliable, does he?
You're the one to talk, Charmy. I'm taking care of you as your superior!
Ehehehe...
Take this, rookie. Do your best!
Alright, now let's go, everyone! Let's take back our world!
Yeah!
Hmm... Still won't budge, huh...
I don't know where the bad spot is... I'm sorry. I'll repair you one day...
Hm?
Wah! Ch-Chaos?!
Sonic! Save me, Sonic!
Sonic...?
Sonic... you're alive!!
Huh? ...What!?
You are... You're the Sonic from another world! ...Right?
Oh, I get it now... But wait? How did you get here?
Could it be that Eggman's mysterious power is breaking the boundaries of dimensions...?
It must be a coincidence that you saved me...! No, wait... It's not a coincidence, it's a certainty!
You came here to save the world! That's gotta be it!
Regardless, I'm happy to see you, Sonic! No matter which world's Sonic you are!
Drop your useless resistance... and die...
I sense your fear.
A weak heart that fell into despair...
It is quite luscious...
The fearful shaking, the ugly crying. If you do well, I'll let you go...
These are your final moments, Sonic.
Yo! What's up? Did you come to invite me to a party? Hmm... but you're not the escort, are you...
Well, now that I'm free, guess I don't need an escort anymore.
You are so pathetic. Thinking you're free at this state... It's pitiful. I shall let you know what's real!
YOU'RE the one who needs to learn about reality, Zavok!
Where's that sound coming from...?
Oops! Now's not the time for that! I gotta hurry and get out of here!
Are you okay? ...Can you stand?
Did you come to save me?
I'm happy beyond words! I didn't have anyone to talk to these days, you see.
Rookie! Is he alive?
Of course! Who do you think I am?!
Sonic!! I'm so glad!
Amy!
Save your joy for later, Amy.
SONIC: How do we go back? Those two are right in the center of the enemy territory. We gotta get them out of there quick...
Thanks for your concern, Knuckles!
This has exceeded my expectations, but I don't mind tormenting the hero-playing victim either.
I'll make you all learn...
That there is no hope for weaklings.
There IS hope! As long as you don't throw it away!
Looks like your life is what you ended up throwing away...!
Switch of players! Leave the rest to me!
Well, if it isn't the little blue savior who has escaped death.
I can sense a smell from you... a smell of fear, that is. Has the memory of my defeating you been revived?
A smell? You must be imagining things, right?
I don't even know your name, nor do I remember you in any way. Heh!
My name is... Infinite. Though I believe this will be the last time we meet.
Thanks! So, Infinite, tell me about yourself.
What's your favorite color? What songs do you like listening to on lonely evenings? What is the secret of your power?
You can just answer the last question, if you're so inclined.
The secret of my power is none of your concern.
That's too bad! Then I guess I'll have to make you tell me by force. You masked prick!
Interesting... I'd like to see you try!
Sonic! He's coming from behind!
I see. For a worthless trash, you're trying quite hard.
But you will still be defeated.
Exactly as planned.
I don't even need to finish off rubbish like you.
Dang it, I really need to find out the secret of his power...!
And with that... the disposal of prototype Phantom Rubies is complete, Doctor.
Right, because it's an unusable defective model that can only be activated once...
Yes. Without a force of will akin to mine, it cannot be activated.
Mystic Jungle's lab is now closed, so...
Oh, right. Didn't you meet up with Sonic there when he escaped?
Yes. But he is mere trash for my level... There is no need for concern.
You let him get away? Can't you tell the difference between trash and a hazardous subject?
That's rude. You've been continuously losing to Sonic. I have only won.
Phantom Rubies? Prototypes?
Sonic is... alive?
What is it?
Nothing.
We follow the plan?
Of course! When time comes, I will eliminate the foolish Resistance... and turn the world into ashes!
The glorious Eggman Empire will be born in its place!
And all of the world's trash will fear of the Phantom Ruby's power... All shall bow down to me!
What! You!?
How dare you! You won't get away with this!
Sonic! You did it!
Hoohohoho!
No matter how much you resist, the bigger picture will remain unchanged! You pathetic fools...
The thought of this being the last time I'll play with you like this is quite moving.
In precisely 3 days, you will all be annihilated according to my plan...!
3 days!?
What plan?
It won't be a surprise if I tell you!
I think I've said enough. Pain that awaits despair surpasses despair itself!
Was that too complicated a metaphor? Hoohohoho!
Hey, who are you?
Sonic!
Tails!
I was so worried! I already thought that you...!
You sure are prone to worrying. Look, I'm very much alive.
And you... we haven't met in a while! Are you doing good?
I'm glad to see you're okay, Sonic, but I've also got bad news...
Eggman has declared that he will destroy us in 3 days! 3 days!?
3 days, huh... That's enough for us!
Shadow. What the heck is going on?
Chaos Control!
Another Shadow?
He disappeared...!?
He's a fake.
A fake? What do you mean?
Even that trash's partners seem to have given up... Though I'd like it if a trash with some backbone had dropped in somewhere.
Did you come from the rubbish side... Or did you unluckily lose your way?
Will you fight and die? Will you run away and get tortured to death? Choose your favorite option.
Hey! This predicament is your highlight moment!
Move forward, even if you're scared!
Fine. I'll teach you about fear. And then there will be pain.
Although... you probably won't feel anything soon.
I remembered.
I let you get away that time... To think that you'd purposely come to throw away the life you finally found... Stupid trash.
This is the end. Die.
What!?
What was that just now? ...Could it be? No, that's not possible!
Oh well. In any case, you've got 2 days to live.
Right up until everything is over, you can show me your useless resistance...!
Hey, we did it! We were in perfect sync!
...Even though it seems to get a little painful.
Alright!
We did it! The Phantom Ruby shouldn't be usable anymore now!
That blasted Resistance and their cunning opposition...! They're like a sticky rubbish stuck at the back of a shoe!
Forget about shoes, you seem to have scooped it from under your feet. No, really.
You don't even have feet, what are you talking about?
Don't nag me like that!
Only 5 hours 'till my plan is fulfilled...! Infinite. Strategic withdrawal! We'll concede for now and reorganise our preparations!
By "strategic withdrawal" you basically mean... "run away with the tail between our legs," right?
You're hesitant to take on those trash bags, aren't you, Doctor?
Shut up! We're withdrawing regardless!
Huh?! Wait!
Thanks for coming here, Sonic. The most important thing is that you've made it just in time for your own funeral.
Infinite, do it!
What's that?
Muhuhuhuhuhu...! If I have name it, then... it's a "Null Space!"
Null Space?
It is a world of nothing created by the Phantom Ruby and closed off from every dimension!
Goodbye Sonic, my former arch-nemesis...! You can wander around the Null Space for all eternity!
Stop! Let me go! You'll get sucked in with me...!
No way...! But I thought we destroyed the power source...!
How naive...! Because the power source of my weapons are constantly being destroyed, I learn quite a lot.
I've used a backup in Metropolis's basement!
Er, um... Boss?
Wha!? What the heck!? You're not supposed to be able to escape from the null space!
If I was alone, maybe. But we are a combination! You wouldn't understand, because you have no friends!
Ughhhh... Don't think you've won! Dr. Eggman-sama will have the last laugh!
If he needs to add "sama" to his own name, I doubt he'll make friends any time soon.
Ow! Why?
Alright, let's go!
Take... this!
Infinite. Long time no see! I'm happy to see you.
What a coincidence, me too.
After all, it is irresistibly enjoyable mashing you all to a pulp.
Have you prepared yourselves for the mashing?
Although if you haven't, I don't care.
You...!?
TARGET ACQUIRED...! SWITCHING TO ELIMINATION MODE. ACTIVATING HEAVY ASSAULT SEQUENCE!
Omega! You're alive!? That's amazing!
You annoying trash cans keep appearing one after another...!!
I'll turn you all into ashes! In the fires of Hell, that is!
Hey, this isn't a joke! That's just deception, right!?
No! No, it's not! We're being controlled by the Phantom Ruby, so this is real for us!
We're driven into a corner...! What can we do against that thing...?!
That sun will fall and incinerate everything! Boom! ...The end!
You soldiers shall be nothing but a dream's remains!
Hey, it's reacting...! Is this the Phantom Ruby prototype that Eggman was talking about...!?
Let me see!
That's really it! He said that prototypes react only to the person who activated them first!
Those signals are yours!
Your courage and strong will activated it!
It's possible that you can erase the sun by using that...
Accept your fate... This is the end for you all...!
Hoohoho! 3... 2... 1... Zero!
Is that...!?
Th--the sun... has disappeared!
Wha! Wh-what's going on!?
Why do you have that!? I thought all prototypes were destroyed...!?
Oversights leave you unlucky!
I at least stubbornly make sure to check everything. Like any good scientist should.
Are you ready, guys?! It is time for our counter attack! Let's beat up Eggman!
Pathetic hedgehog. Though the Phantom Ruby's power has been weakened...
The difference between you and me is that of a God and trash...!
I'll make you realise how outclassed you are!
I'm a special case! YOU'RE the one who needs to realise that.
This is the end, Sonic...! I've restored the Phantom Ruby's energy.
You and your powerless friends shall be perished!
You!
This friend will give me power! Victory is ours!
This... this can't be...! My limitless power...!?
You're wrong, Infinite! The real limitless power is the heart, soul, and bonds of friendship!
The power of 3 that you impostors don't have!
What the!? Hey, stop! I can still fight! I can...!
Infinite?
You've done it, Sonic! I didn't think you'd be able to defeat Infinite...!
Doesn't matter. It's only increased the enjoyment of my defeating you!
Don't think this is over, you sewer rat! The plan has entered the extra innings!
We did it! This is the end to Eggman's army! We won!
Hey! What's happening now!? We've won and everything, let us get it over with!
Look!
Fools! The nuclear power reactor of the fortress is a decoy! The real winner keeps an ace up his sleeve until the end!
What's going on, Sonic?! The enemies aren't decreasing, they're rapidly increasing!
The numbers are unbelievable!
Confirmed sightings indicate Shadow, Metal Sonic, Zavok, Chaos, and even Infinite...!
There's tens of thousands of troops!
What did you do, Eggman!?
Hoohohoho! I've inserted the Phantom Ruby into this Death Egg Robot!
No way...! If the energy supply's weak points have disappeared, does that mean the Phantom Ruby has become faultless...!?
Good deduction, Tails.
Now this Death Egg Robot has... No, I have surpassed even Infinite and became the complete form!
I will destroy you with the power of the Phantom Ruby that I obtained, and my plan will be realised! Geheheh...! Hoohoho...!
What kind of plan are you talking about?! Don't make me laugh! At any rate, we'll stamp your plan into a mountain of rubble as hard as we can and put an end to this!
Let's go, guys!
Alright! We won!
Victory is ours!
Barely made it.
We did it!
Are you alright?
Yeah... We've won!
We won!
We did it!
Looks like this is goodbye...
Take care on the way back, Sonic.
Thank you so much!
C'mon, cheer up. I'm sure we'll see him again.
Okay everyone, let's stop being sad now! We will be real busy from now on.
We gotta bring the world back to normal! That's no illusion...
But a real world that we understand!
Yeah!
You're right!
Alright! ...Let's go, everyone!
Man... this long fight is now over... The day we go back home has finally arrived.
The Resistance will now disband!
But there's still a load of things that need to be done. Keep on your toes!
Yeah.
What is it? You're going out on a journey? There's still things to do in this world...?
I see... Got it. I'm not gonna stop you!
Oh! When I saw you for the first time, you were stumblin' around a bunch. I was wondering what will become of you...
But I got a better opinion of you. You're incredible!
That's what I knew about you from the start, rookie. Oh, I guess I can't call you a rookie anymore.
You did great. Totally unlike a certain someone who was sleeping the whole time.
The fight is over, and the Resistance will now disband,
but we will always be partners!
We can't take on the huge job of restoring the world alone.
There's no other way but to combine our strengths, and constantly work at it!
Yeah!
You're going too, huh? I had that feeling as well.
Always move forward. That's what we are...
We're always together.
See you later... partner!
