An orb, just like before appears, making Shadow and Rouge come out of it and landing on the ground. They were in the far future, and it was definitely a looker.

Rouge: [Looks out of shattered window; confused] What is this place?

Shadow: It seems we've been teleported to another location.

Rouge: Well let's find out where we are.

Shadow nods and Rouge runs ahead, but before he can follow her, he begins thinking about Mephiles and what past they have with each other.

Shadow: Mephiles... Who is he?

Shadow runs after Rouge and the two go off to the database, which looked like it hasn't been used in so long. Rouge was trying to work the computer, but it was so broken she barely even got it working.

Rouge: [Turns computer on] I'm in... [Looks at timeline files] I've pinpointed our location, it's... [Shocked] No... that's not possible... We're still in the Doctor's base. But how can that be? [Comes to realization] Wait, there's no doubt now!

Shadow: So, it's not where we are...

Rouge: [Types at keyboard; gasps]

Shadow: [Finishes sentence] It appears we've gone through time... doesn't it?

Rouge: Yes... Approximately 200 years. Maybe more, depending on when this database was last updated. Well, at least we know we've arrived in the future. That means this Mephiles character has the power to control time.

Shadow: His power feels very similar to my own Chaos Control. But...

As Shadow goes to finish his sentence, the two hear a loud thud from the other room. Meanwhile Sonic, Tails and Knuckles come out of a similar orb from the center of the ceiling. Sonic lands softly on his feet, but Tails lands on his rear and Knuckles lands face first on the ground.

Tails: [Head shakes] Boy, do I feel dizzy... [Looks around; confused] Where are we?

From above the room, footsteps can be heard.

Rouge: Oh, look who's here! [Sonic looks to the voice] I didn't expect to see you guys.

Tails: [Looks at top of room with Sonic and Knuckles; excited] Rouge! Shadow!

Rouge: [Waves] Hi. Long time no see!

Rouge and Shadow take Sonic, Tails and Knuckles out of the database and to the roof of the building, where the five get a good look at the future they find themselves in.

Shadow: This is the distant future, far removed from our own timeline.

Tails: The future? Then that means Eggman's machine can control time!

Sonic: [Rubs nose] Eggman's got some nerve dropping us here.

Knuckles: [Kicks rock; looks around confused] Now, how do we get back to our own time?
