Mario, Luigi, Fox, Falco, Zelda, and Sonic all looked up in the to a tree where they had heard the voice. Up stood a dark hedgehog, striking a resemblance to Sonic. And in his hands... or floating around him... were the seven Chaos Emeralds!
"Shadow. Look, I don't have time for this. I need to get my friend back," Sonic snapped.
"You're welcome. I made sure whoever kidnapped those animals and Tails, didn't get their hands on these. I grabbed them just when the flash hit," the dark hedgehog called Shadow said.

"Well, he certainly has the ego to fill it," commented Falco.

"The Tornado 2! Excellent!"
"Let's-a-go, it's only a matter of time before that thing closes," Mario spoke up. Again, with new friends, the growing group of heroes flew into the warp, just as it was starting to shrink.
