What if: Shadow Frontiers

The mysterious plan

During Shadow's fight, the first two rivais slowly come to their senses. Sonic is the first to wake up, clutching the back of his head, buzzing, still feeling the impact.

Sonic: ...Man, He left us in quite the .

he looks around, sees his friends waiting for him to wake up, and then notices his red companion.

Sonic: Hey Knux! Time to get up laziness, we still have work to do.

He pokes her, curious to see how she reacts to him.

Knzckles: Ugh...Silent blueness, my head is still buzzing...Damn, Shadow will get this back. (He adds annoyed.)

Sonic: Departure. (He jumps up to fly into space, but gravity no longer works for him. He starts to fall.

Sonic: Woah woah..ouch! (He finds himself on the ground in surprise.) What's going on here?

Knuckles: We already lost our Super form.

Only then does Sonic look at himself, realizing his friend's observation.

Sonic: Oh...But we still have the emeralds, try again-

Amy: Forget it! You just got saved!

Tails: You've come pretty close to danger. Stay wasted a little. Especially you, Sonic.

Sonic: Hehe, you might be right. But I can't rest easy knowing that that creature has wiped out an entire civilization and is now fighting Shadow. I have to go there.

Sage: That would be a very stupid decision on your part, but what would you expect from my father's most annoying acquaintance.

Sonic: I can't be that bad, can I, Egghead?

Eggman just looks to the side, no need to answer.

Knuckles: Maybe for once I'll agree with the Ai girl. We just got through the fight, we'll leave the rest to Shadow, I'm sure he can do it.

Sonic: Woah Knux! I didn't expect that from you. You're usually one of the first to kick the bad guys in the ass.

Knuckles: Believe me, I hate to admit it either, but right now we'd only be holding him back. Maybe Tails has a better idea of ​​how we can join him.

Tails: Umm...No? (Tells Knuckles a little confused.)

Sonic: To be honest, I also have a personal reason to fight him. Stay here, protect the island, wish

Then a hammer taps his shoulder.

Sonic: Huh? Is there something on my back Amy?

Amy: I'm doing this for your sake.

Sonic: What exactly-

He sees the hammer swinging towards his shadow

Sonic: Hey slow down, I just got back-

The poor hedgehog gets another blow to the back of his head. As he falls to the ground, his vision blurs, but he hasn't passed out yet. Amy takes a rope out of her pocket.

Sonic: Ugh..Now I'm definitely going to be a hunchback for a few days. Tails help me, Amy is crazy.

Tails: Sorry Sonoc, don't move so much, it will be less uncomfortable.

As Amy carefully but tightly ties Sonic to a post, the hedgehog clears at the sight, already comprehending his current situation.

Sonic: Umm...okay, I see. Security. Knux, won't you support me, for old time's sake?

Amy takes fierce steps towards the anteater, swinging her hammer in front of him. Knuckles takes a step back and turns away.

Knuckles: Uhhh...I didn't see or die anything. You're on your own. (Tell Sonic.)
