Storm clouds formed above Station Square as lightning flashed across the sky.
"What must be done... The seven chaos. ... Chaos is power. ... Power comes from the heart. ... The one who masters that also controls chaos. ...Feel within... The sea of chaos... The young waters..." someone said and it started to rain and Angel Island fell into the ocean. "May the light that controls power shine down for eternity and protect us."
In a jungle a ball of light struck the ground, rousing Big the Cat and his frog friend Froggy. Froggy leapt off of Big and headed toward the area where the explosion occurred.
"Wait for me, Froggy!" Big said and stumbled after Froggy and arrived at the spot. "You're trying to tell me something."
"Wow, what's this?" Big said and picked it up. "Sure is pretty. Somebody must have dropped it. Finders keepers, right, pal?"
"Uh... What's the matter, little buddy?" he asked when suddenly Froggy grew a tail. "Hey, am I seeing things? You're growing a tail!" Big said and leapt and ate the Chaos Emerald causing him to fall over.
Meanwhile Air Force One flew through the now-clearing skies. An aide, Towers, the President's Third Aide, Topaz, Sonic, Christina Cooper and Mr. Stewart stood before the President.
"It's been six months, and I still don't understand. What happened when the Chaos Emeralds came together?" the President asked.
"Shadow and his friends thought that Chaos Control would send them back to their home planet, but a piece of their planet was sent here instead." Aide said.
"Still, our citizens appear to be taking it all in stride, Mr. President. In fact, plans to turn Mystic Ruins into a world-famous tourist attraction is sure to be a great boost to the economy." Christina said.
"Maybe so, but one thing still has me worried: Dr. Eggman." the President said.
"I wouldn't worry about that, Mr. President. We've got intelligence teams all over the globe tracking his whereabouts. Plans are also underway to install a new network of surveillance satellites." P.T.A. said.
"Really?"
"Right. But no matter how you spin it, you still haven't managed to catch him." Sonic said leaning against the desk.
"Sonic, please." Topaz said.
"It's true, isn't it? Who cares about agents and satellites? Why don't we all admit that he's just too smart for us?"
"Sonic is right. In all this time since Chaos Control happened, we haven't heard a peep out of him." the President said.
"Isn't it obvious? He's taking a little break to plot his next move."
"That must be it."
"I well understand your frustration, Mr. President. We won't let you down, sir." P.T.A. said.
"See that you don't."
"Yes, sir." P.T.A. and Aide said.
"Oh, and one more thing. How are Shadow and his little friends doing anyway?"
"Here, sir." Mr. Stewart said and stepped forward with photographs of Shadow's friends. "From these pictures, you can see they're all doing fine." he said and the President noticed Sonic was thinking.
"Something wrong agent Sonic?" he asked and she looked at him.
"Sir, I feel like something big is going to happen. I wish to stick with Shadow and work with him a little." Sonic said surprising them all. "I heard Ivo did something big and I don't think he can do this on his own. With two of the three of us together we're unstoppable."
