Dawn at Knothole, Sonic zooms into Shadow's hut and finds Uncle Chuck waiting for him.
Uncle Chuck: You're back.
Sonic: Yeah well, it's not like I had anywhere else to go.
Uncle Chuck: Did you run all over Mobius?
Sonic: Maybe.
Uncle Chuck: Then you could have gone anywhere. You didn't have to come back here so it means a lot that you did.
Sonic: No offense but don't you have another Sonic to care about?
Uncle Chuck: About as much as you have another Shadow to care about.
Sonic: Not the same.
Uncle Chuck: No?
Sonic: That's right, no.
Uncle Chuck: You're mad at me for letting Tikal take your friend away, huh?
Sonic: I am. (sigh) But it's not your fault.
Uncle Chuck: I'm no Amy Rose or Knuckles the Echidna but...
Sonic: You know them?!
Uncle Chuck: I've been with them this whole time, yes.
Sonic: Yeah? Go on.
Uncle Chuck: But I am your friend. I know you care a lot about your friends. They're your family.
Sonic folds his arms.
Sonic: I guess they belong to the other Sonic now.
Uncle Chuck paternally puts his hand on Sonic's shoulder.
Sonic: (sigh) I'm sorry. I'm bummed about Shadow.
Uncle Chuck: I know.
Sonic: I don't like it and... I don't belong here.
Uncle Chuck: Ya know, I disagree. There's only one Sonic the Hedgehog and I'm looking at him.
Sonic: That's not true.
Uncle Chuck: Then answer me this? Is there a different Shadow in your world?
Sonic: Yes and he's a dill weed. Nothing like that Valor Shadow.
Uncle Chuck: But if you end up back in your world you probably won't see your Shadow the same way anymore, will ya?
Sonic: Well... no.
Uncle Chuck: We don't know how much time we have together but as long as you're here with me, your my Sonny-boy.
Sonic covers his face.
Sonic: Oh man! All my friends are so far away! Stop it. I'm not crying, you're crying!
Uncle Chuck: There, there. You'll be okay, Sonny-boy.
Sally sees Chuck holding Sonic from outside the window and hurries in. Before he can react, Sonic feels Sally's arms around him from behind.
Sally: Oh Sonic, I hate seeing you so sad. I'm so sorry.
He turns to her and hugs her, sobbing on her shoulder.
Sonic: Is this a bad time to ask if you're free rein?
Sally: What do you mean?
Sonic: You keep calling the other guy, "my Sonic." What does that make me, Princess?
Uncle Chuck: I'll leave you two alone.
He exists the hut. Sally pauses then gasps.
Sally: Oh my gosh, it just hit me like a brick in the face.
Sonic: What did? The fact that you rejected me a bunch of times even though I'm no less Sonic than the Sonic from this world?
Sally: Y...yes!
Sonic: Yeah, that hurts almost as bad as looking down at your dead bro.
Sally: Oh Sonic, I never meant to...
Sonic: It's okay, Sally. This place is totally up side down. Where I come from Shadow is a douche, you don't exist, and Eggman shares a marshmallow with me and Tails every now and then. But hey, this isn't my world so, I gotta take what I can get.
Sally: I guess I saw you as someone else.
Sonic: Someone other than Sonic. I get it.
Sally: Would a chili dog help you feel better?
Sonic: Normally yes but we're talking about one of my homies kicking the bucket and me getting rejected by a princess. Not even a chili dog can fix this one.
Sally: Let me see then...
She gives him a peck on the lips.
Sonic: Whoa.
Sally: Whoa is right. That felt exactly like it always does! Now I know what Tikal was saying about the anomaly. Sonic, it really is you!
Sonic: Yeah duh.
Sally: Awe! I'm sorry! I didn't understand before!
She gives him a nice long kiss on the lips.
Sonic: Thanks, Sal. For some reason I've been wanting to do this since the moment I saw you. Jeeze, that felt good.
Sally: Don't stop...
They keep going until Sally stops, opens her eyes and sees Sat Sonic restored.
Sally: SONIC!
Sat Sonic: SALLY!
They hug and make out.
