A lioness grooms her cub; a giraffe eats leaves from a tree; a hippopotamus is seen in the water, and the X-Tornado flies over it all.

Tails: This place is amazing! All the wildlife here really is wild. Let's land to take a closer look.

Sonic, standing on top of the X-Tornado, nods Aylin was also inside watching the animals with Tails and Chris. Suddenly Chris points ahead.

Chris: Tails! Check the radar! Mayday!

They see that the Egg Fort is hot on their tail The Egg Fort fires several missiles at the X-Tornado, which it dodges. Sonic stretches his legs

Sonic: Time for some fun.

Chris: What are you gonna do, Sonic?

Sonic: Ha! You'll see!

Sonic: take care I guess...

Sonic reveals that he has a Power Ring, then activates it and leaps toward the Egg Fort, executing a home attack. Sonic starts damaging the ship. The Egg Fort is going down.

Chris: All right!

The X-Tornado flies next to the Egg Fort. Suddenly, an explosion causes rocks the X-Tornado.

Tails: Uh-oh!

Aylin: um?

Shrapnel is sent into the X-Tornado, breaking off one of its wings.

Tails: The wing!

Chris: Look out!

Aylin: crap!

The X-Tornado plummets to the ground

Aylin: ouch...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tails is working on repairing the X-Tornado. Chris appears bored. Aylin sat in the shade she yawned a bit. He slides the dolly out from underneath the X-Tornado

Tails: I fixed it.

Aylin's face brightens up

Aylin: you did?

Chris: But Tails, the wing is still broken.

Tails: You're right. This machine can't fly...

He climbs inside the X-Tornado.

Tails: ...so we'll walk.

He starts up the X-Tornado and converts it to X-Cyclone mode.

Chris: I forgot the X-Tornado can walk.

Unfortunately one of the legs falls off, damaging the X-Tornado further. Aylin looks aghast and heads there to see if Tails is alright

Chris: (Blushing) Still needs work.

Aylin: are you ok Tails?

Tails: yeah.. but it still needs work

Tails is once again repairing the X-Tornado

Chris: Can I do something to help?

Tails: No thanks. I can handle this myself.

Aylin: are you sure

Tails: Its fine

Chris: Oh...

Chris looks around

Chris: It sure is quiet around here.

He opens his cell phone, but, to his dismay, there is no signal. Aylin walks back in the shade.

Chris: I don't even have any phone service here.

Aylin pulls her phone it seems to work

Aylin: mines working

He heads over to a nearby tree and flops onto the grass. He tries to get some sleep, but the sun is too bright. He yawns anyway. Meanwhile, Tails is now doing welding work on the X-Tornado. Aylin was pulling on some music.
