Space
Several asteroid-shaped spaceships are flying through space.
Pilot: The Metarex are attacking! We must do whatever it takes to protect the base!
Suddenly, some of the ships are destroyed as a giant spacefaring Metarex emerges from hyperspace. This is the Scarship.
Pilot: Aahh! It's Scarship!
The Scarship fires laser cannons that destroys one of the ships.]
Pilot: Do not retreat! Keep firing![All of the ships open fire on the Scarship. No damage is done. Scarship continues to pick off some of the ships.]
Pilot: Attention all ships. Fire laser cannons now.[Not even simultaneous laser fire can damage the Scarship. The Scarship opens fire with all it has, destroying most of the asteroid ships.]
Pilot: All ships retreat![Just as the last few ships turn back, they are destroyed.]
Scarship: Only a coward would flee from combat.[Dark Oak contacts the Scarship.]
Dark Oak: [Over transmitter] This is Dark Oak calling Scarship.
Scarship: [On transmitter] Scarship here.
Dark Oak: [On Transmitter] You have a new mission. Sonic the Hedgehog and Dr. Eggman are throwing our plans into disarray. Find them and destroy them.
Scarship: [On transmitter] Acknowledged.[The Scarship moves on to its next task.]
Scarship: So... one ship escaped.[It spots an asteroid ship that is trying to escape.]
Scarship: But not for long![He fires a rocket. It destroys the ship.]
The Blue Typhoon - Bridge
Cosmo is sleeping. Suddenly she awakens after dreaming about Shadow. She sweat-drops Cream approaches.
Cream: Cosmo, are you OK?
Cosmo: Sorry, Cream. I was dreaming.
Cream: Is it about Shadow?
Cosmo: It was.
They turn to the others. Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Chris have their eyes closed, doing nothing, as if in deep thought.
Cream: Sonic and the others have been thinking about him ever since he reappeared.
Cosmo: Why is Shadow the Hedgehog so important to you anyway?
Cream: Well...
A Flashback to Eggman waking Shadow.
