Amy, Skylar, Knuckles and Sticks are running down the canyon.

Amy: Knuckles, flank left!

Knuckles: I don't take orders from you! You flank left!

Amy: Why do we have to have this discussion every single time?

An explosion can be heard in the distance. Amy turns her attention to it as Dr. Eggman's Octopus Bot emerges from a hole in the canyon.

Eggman: Behold! The awesome power of Octopus Bot!

Octopus Bot wiggles its tentacles, and Sonic runs out of the hole in the canyon. He then runs up to Octopus Bot and shakes one of its tentacles with his right hand.

Sonic: Nice to meet 'cha.

Sonic runs around two of Octopus Bot's tentacles, causing them to get tangled. As Eggman struggles to untangle them, Amy runs up to Octopus Bot, carrying her hammer in both her hands. Octopus Bot tries to catch her with one of its tentacles, but she backs away just in time. Octopus Bot tries to catch her twice more, but she dodges its tentacle both times. She then hits the tentacle with her hammer, knocking it off and causing it to fly into the canyon and slide down it.

Eggman: Eh? Grr!

Skylar: Blue balls. Gimme a boost!

Sonic runs up to her grabs her and throws her at Octopus bot. She takes her hammer and swings down hard, breaking the top of the robot causing Eggman to scream as the blow almost hit him. The robot moves one of its tentacles to catch Skylar but she dodges and takes a swing, knocking off the tentacle. Skylar backflips off the robot and lands in Sonics arms. 

Skylar: Nice catch. I'm surprised my weight didn't tear off your weak arms.

Sonic: Oh come on my arms aren't even that skinny!

Skylar: They look malnourished.

Sonic: Don't make me drop you.  

Sonic puts her down before starting to run again. Octopus Bot chases after Sticks, who jumps up the canyon, dodging Octopus Bot's tentacles as they hit it. Sticks then jumps backwards, causing Octopus Bot's tentacle to hit its head. Inside Octopus Bot, Eggman pulls on the levers, causing Octopus Bot's tentacle to swat at him. He backs away to avoid getting hit.

Eggman: Oh!

Eggman gets Octopus Bot's tentacle out, then Octopus Bot tries attacking Sonic, but Sonic moves out of the way. Sonic then starts running counter-clockwise circles around Octopus Bot.

Eggman: You know, this would be easier if you'd all stop moving around.

Sonic: [Continues running circles around Octopus Bot] Sorry, I can't hear you.

Sonic stops running, but continues dodging Octopus Bot's tentacles.

Sonic: Too busy running circles around your Squid Bot!

Eggman: It's not a squid, it's an octopus! Can't you tell by the size of the tentacles in relation to the head?

Tails flies his plane towards Octopus Bot.

Tails: Sonic, my laser-guided Unbolterizer is ready to go! I've got a clean shot at Spider Bot!

Eggman: It's an octopus! An octopus!

Sonic is now holding his communicator up to his head.

Sonic: Tails, have you even tested it yet?

Tails: Don't worry, it'll work!

Tails locks onto Octopus Bot before he presses the button on the right lever and his plane fires a yellow beam. The yellow beam misses Octopus Bot and bounces all over the canyon. It eventually hits Octopus Bot's severed tentacle, causing it to break into pieces, one of which hits a stack of rocks. The rocks crumble and fall, and Tails looks down at them in shock.
