(I'd like to apologise for the use of the Jackie Chan Chi spell) 



Last time- Tails regained consciousness and threatened to overthrow Robotnik once and for all but now Evil Knuckles is lurking in the emerald chamber!

Evil Knux: All I need is one little emerald and those half rate knock offs will be unable to supercharge!

(In outer space, Hyper Tails is searching for Robotnik's base.)
H. Tails: Where could it be?
(Just then Hyper Storm, Neo Flash, Super Saber and Magna Bubble fly up to him.)
H. Tails: Any luck guys?
H. Storm: Nope. We even checked out Robotnik's old spy satellite but we couldn't find anything.
H. Tails: Then where could he be?
N. Flash: Maybe we should go back to base and get some food.
H. Tails: Good idea. I always think better on a full stomach.
(The five fly through Mobius's atmosphere. Almost as soon as they cleared it they changed back into their basic Mobian forms and began to free fall back to Mobius!)
YAAAAAAAAAA!!!

(Before their fall could pick up speed, Tails grabbed hold of Flashes hand and started spinning his tails. With Flash in hand, Tails manoeuvred over to Bubble who grabbed Flashes other hand. Bubble then draws her spear and holds it out to Storm, who grabs the pole. Storm pulls out his axe and extends it to Saber who grabs the blade in his Katanas. By this time Tails was carrying a lot of weight so the group started to fall a little slower than they would have if not for this chain formation but they where still falling pretty fast.)
(They fall near the floating island where Sonic ant the other four Freedom fighters watch in shock.)
Sally: Oh my gosh! They're not gonna make it!
Sonic: They will if I have a say in it! CHAOS CONTROL!
(He teleports close to Tails.)
SONIC WIND!
(He blows the de-transformed Turbo Tails team onto the island where they land in a lake.)
Tails (sticks his head out from the water): Thanks. I think. ATCHOO!

(In Espio's house, Tails and his friends dry up and keep warm with a hot chocolate drink.)
T2: Drenched again huh?
Tails: Yeah. At least it's better than being road kill.
Bubble: I don't mind getting wet. I used to go swimming all the time back in the mystic ruins!
Saber: I don't mind the cold. That water was a lot colder than the stuff we landed in.
T2: Well it's a good job Sonic was there when he was. I'd hate to see how that pile up would have looked!
(Visually pictures cartoon versions of Saber, then Storm, then Bubble, then, Flash, and finally Tails, hitting the ground and floating away as pieces of paper.)
POOF! (End of daydream.)
Sure would have been funny though!
Flash: No it wouldn't! Besides we still have to figure out why we changed back to normal Mobians. 
Storm: Maybe Knuckles would know.

(Speaking of Knux. He, Mighty, Vector, Espio, and Ray are chasing Evil Knuckles who has snatched the green Chaos emerald.)
Mighty: Stop! In the name of the law!
Evil Knux: I'll stop when you stop chasing me, mussel brain!
(As he races out of the building, he spots Mia in the garden and uses this opportunity to trick Chaotix.)
THUNDER KNUCKLE!
(He shoots a bolt of lightning that blows up the bench and bushes Mia is sitting in. The whole place is engulfed in flames.)
Vector: On no!
Knuckles: Ray! You go chase him while we go rescue Mia!
Ray: Yes sir!
(Ray peruses the Knuckles look alike while the real Knux plans out his daring rescue.)
Knuckles: Okay Espio! Try to put out the flames! Mighty! Help me lift this beam! Vector! It's up to you to go in and rescue the damsel!
All: Right!

Espio: TORNADO SPIN!
(He starts spinning and runs into the flames catching some of them in the wind he made.)
(Knuckles and Mighty gather all their strength to hold up the beam while Vector runs into the gap and grabs Mia. He escapes with the human in hand just before Knux and Mighty drop the beam. Now the fire is out and Ray has returned.)
Ray: He got away! I lost sight of him back there!
Knuckles: Darn it! With out that emerald we cant supercharge anymore!
Vector: Hey guys I think we have another problem here.
(Mia is unconscious in his arms.)
I think we'd best take her to the doctor.

(They do just that.)
(Tails is at Mia's bedside.)
Tails: How'd this happen?
Knuckles: It was evil Knuckles. He used her to distract us while he made his getaway.
Tails: This is all my fault! She shouldn't even be here! I told her a thousand times to stay away from the ring portal and what does she do? This! Darn it! Mia's more trouble than she's worth!
Knuckle: Tails chill out! You're just mad right now. You don't mean what your saying.
Tails: Maybe you're right Knux. I guess it is my fault after all. I'm the only reason she stayed on Mobius in the first place.
Knuckles: You didn't choose this Tails, it chose you. Best thing to do is focus on the future.
Tails: Thanks pal. (Turns to the unconscious Mia) Well, time to heal.
(He pulls out the angel stone and puts it on Mia's stomach. Nothing happens.)
What?! Why isn't it working?
(Merlin Prower appears in a cloud of smoke.)
Merlin: The angel stone takes longer to work on humans. Give it time and she will heal.
Tails: Thanks unc.
Merlin: Now, to business. These evil excuses for Mobians are causing trouble all over the planet and we need to prepare for the final battle.
Knuckles: How?
Merlin: In Special zones you can find replacement emeralds. I happen to know a chi spell that can open the gate to it. Come now we must find the portals location.
(Tails and Knuckles walk with Merlin to the command centre.)

(At home T2 and Flash are having one of these "Girl talks")
T2: So Flash, do you have a boyfriend? 
Flash: Nah. I haven't met anyone who's within my standards until a few months ago.
T2: But you've met a few guys who'd be good choices by now right?
Flash ^o^: Oh yeah!
T2 ¬¬ : Heh heh. Like who for instance?  
Flash: Promise you wont tell anyone?
T2 ^_^: Sure! You can tell me.
Flash: Saber.
T2: That old guy? Why?
Flash (Blushes): Sabers real big and strong, but he's still nice.
T2: I guess.
Flash: But I like Tails a little more.
T2 0_0: WHAT!!!
(Flash turns even redder)
Flash: It's true! He's cute, sweet, real good at his job, and he really cares about his friends.
T2: I guess those are pretty good points.
Flash: Yeah. If he weren't going with Mia, I'd ask him out in a second!
(A baby crying is herd.)
T2: Oh. Could you change Nage's diaper while I make us some coffee?
Flash: Why do I have to do it?
T2: It'll be good practice. You might have a kid of your own someday.
Flash (-_-#): Ever think that's why I'm still single? 


(Back to Tails and Knuckles. Merlin has located the portal and he is using the spell to open it.)
GOO MO GUI GAI QUI ME SOW! 
GOO MO GUI GAI QUI ME SOW! 

(The portal opens.)
Knuckles: Unc, that was some magic!
Merlin: Ha! A simple chi spell.
(Suddenly, Evil Knuckles jumps into the portal.)
Evil Knux: Ya boo! I got the best of you!
Knuckles (0\/0#): I am really starting to dislike that guy!     
Merlin: Remember guys, we just need one emerald to power the chaos drives the rest of the rings and emeralds can come in handy during your fight with Evil Knuckles.

(Knuckles jumps into the zone and grabs a few emeralds. He tosses them to Tails.)
Knuckles: Take these back to the island! I'll take care of my twin so to speak!
Tails: But what if he beats you? How will we know witch Knuckles comes back?  
Knuckles: Don't worry I wont lose! But if in doubt ask Julie-su. She'll know witch is the real deal!
Tails: Right.
Merlin: Come nephew. We have business back on the island.

(Tails and Merlin disappear in a cloud of smoke.)

Will Knuckle be able to beat his evil counterpart?
And WHAT THE HECK IS DOOMSDAY 2?!!!

Tune in next time and maybe I'll show you...
