The four were walking through some ruins.
Belle: and are you sure the Restoration will take me?
Sonic: Totally! They're super chill. Everybody there is a volunteer that wants to help folks who had it rough with all the crazy stuff that's been going on, recently.
Gotuce: Well that's good to hear that another HQ was created!
Tails: Yea. You missed a lot when you were gone, Gotuce.
Belle: Are you sure this is the right place? Sorry, but it looks a little..... ruined.
Sonic: Sure, I'm sure.
They come to a crater with a little garden and a tool shed.
Tails: This is the spot!
Sonic opens the door.
Sonic: Care to do the honors, buddy,?
Tails: On it!
Belle: This is a tool shed.
Tails: It sure is......if you aren't looking at the right place!
Tails: pulls a spade tool and the ground starts to move.
Sonic: You two might want to hold onto something.
Tails: Welcome to the Restoration-or well their back door. At least. Amy told me they decided to preserve this towns ruins as a memorial to what people have lost. Instead they're building within what's left over.
They get to an elevator door.
Tails: Besides.........
The doors open as it reveal the new HQ
Tails: Who wouldn't like to be in a place like this!
Gotuce: Woah!
Belle: Gears and starters....this place is amazing!
Sonic: Yeah, its way cooler than they're old place.
They all stop.
Sonic: Where do ya suppose we could find.......
Amy had appeared Infront of Sonic.
Amy: HIIIIII!
Sonic: Just like clockwork. How does she do that? Heh, Amy weren't you done with directory stuff?
Amy: I'm just here to wrap up a acouple little things and make sure Jewel is okay.
Jewel: Which I'm most certainly am!
Tails: Were here to cause we were hoping the Restoration might be able to help out Belle. She needs a place to stay.
Belle: Nice to meet you!
Tails: Also we brought Gotuce here!
Jewel: Tails, Gotuce has been gone for a while, plus with Whisper trying to find him a long with Tangle, there isn't much ground to look.
Tails: No! He's right here!
Tails moves out of the way as Gotuce walks front.
Gotuce: H-Hey Jewel.....
Jewel is in shock at the sight of Gotuce.
Jewel: G-Gotuce is that really you!
Gotuce: Yeah, it's me.
Jewel flys up and slaps him in the face.
Gotuce: Ow! What was that for!
Jewel: That was for making Tangle and Whisper worry about your whereabouts! They have been restlessly trying to find you right now!
Gotuce stops and looks serious.
Gotuce: Where are they.
Jewel: Tangle is at the machine shop, I can send you with Belle over there.
Jewel looks around and finds Lanolin.
Jewel: Excuse me! Could you take this volunteer to the machine shop?
Lanolin: Yes Director!
Jewel: Please, Jewel is fine!
Lanolin: Yes, director Jewel. Recruit, follow me.
Tails: Don't worry you'll do great!
Belle: T-Thanks.
They trio all head to he machine shop.
------------------
Amy: C'mon, we'll give you the grand tour!
Sonic: You guys have certainly been busy tidying this place up.
Jewel: Indeed!-at first wed tough wed never get through it!
They all step into the new hub center.
Jewel: But you can do anything if you take one step at a time!
Sonic and Tails notice the screen playing videos of Gotuce arrival to Mobius and the rest that followed.
Sonic: Hey, why is Gotuce playing on the screens?
Amy: Oh Those! We manage to recover his Scouter back from the old HQ and when we plugged it in, it started showing these! Ever since then. All of Restoration were see Gotuce thriugh the metal virus and how it impacted him.
Jewel: When we got to Angel Island, Tangle and Whisper were present in the room and saw first hand just how powerful Gotuce truly was when he and the time Patrol fired off that beam at Zavok.
Sonic: Oh. I only got a single glimpse of it but didn't see the full thing.
Tails: Hey, I kinda want to see it!
Amy: Sure, you can!
Amy presses a button and the screen began to show that final climax of Angel Island.
------------------
Meanwhile.......
On the way to he machine shop, Lanolin while leading Belle and Gotuce began to hears two mobians talk about them.
Female Mobian #1: What kind of robot is that?
Female Mobian #2: Kinda creepy.......what's with her nose?
Female Mobian #1: Did you see that guy with them!
Female Mobian #2: Yeah! That was the guy in the recording. Though seeing him up close, he is kinda cute~
Lanolin over hears this and grunts in frustration.
They all get to the machine shop.
Lanolin: Here we are. The machine shop!
Lanolin approaches an orangutan Mobian.
Lanolin: Sir! I have a new recruit straight from the director!
Orangutan Mobian: Whatd I tell you about the official type stuff? You got to relax sister!
Lanolin: Yes, si-Dully noted!
Lanolin leaves but not before giving a hug to Gotuce.
Gotuce: Oh! Heh Heh.
He gives her a pat on the head and this makes her little sheep tail wag and she pulls back and leaves with a happy smile.
Orangutan Mobian: That's a far out look! Whats your name?
Belle: I'm custom built.....and my name is Belle.
The Mobian turns to Gotuce.
Orangutan Mobian: And what about you mister?
Gotuce: It's Gotuce. Son Gotuce.
Orangutan Mobian: Oh gosh! I can't believe I'm in the presence of one of the heroes who saved us from the metal virus!
Gotuce: Hero?
Orangutan Mobian: Yeah, we all saw the video recordings!
Gotuce: What.......
After a bit of talking they two began working like Belle moving a cart of boxes and making coffee though she is a bit terrible at it.
On the same instance, she was carrying a box and a vehicle ran on her tail causing to kick the box away.
Belle: Aw Sawdust!
The box hits a carrier holding a boat up and it begins to fall until it is held up by......... Tangle!
Tangle: Don't worry, guys! I got this! No boats about it!
Though it is proving difficult.
Tangle: Little help? This is kind heavy. Like really heavy. Please hurry.
Then Tangle felt the boat as if it where light as a feather and once she got down........se saw Gotuce himself lifting it with absolute ease.
Tangle: Gotuce..........
As he set the boat down, he sees Tangle looking at him with tears.
Gotuce: Hey Tangle........sorry for disappearing on you like that.
Tangle's Tails pulls him in for a well deserving hug as she plants many kisses on his face.
Tangle: I-I missed you so much!
Though she didn't know she was crushing Gotuce.
(Replace Blaze with Gotuce.)
Gotuce: Tangle! Ow! Ow! Your crushing me!
Tangle: Oops sorry!
She lets him go as the orangutan Mobian grabs Belle by her head.
Orangutan Mobian: You! You're a liability to yourself and others and I can't have those kinda of vibes in my shop. So make track before I-
Belle: I'm so so sorry! I cant-
Tangle: Easy chief! I can take it from here!
Belle:-Oh?
Orangutan Mobian: Fine. Both of you scram. You know you're not allowed in here, Tangle. Not after the ball bearing incident.
Tangle: You got no appreciation for physical comedy.
The trio walk away.
Tangle: It's great to have you back, babe! But I need to know. Where have you been!
Gotuce: I decided to go back to Conton City for a bit and to train more as I started to show signs of a technique only my father had mastered.
Tangle: Oh? And what was that you couldn't really tell us!
Gotuce looks serious for a bit.
Gotuce: Ultra Instinct.
Tangle: Woah! And what is it?
Gotuce: It is a technique of the angels and it allows the user to move with out thinking.
Tangle: Cool!
Belle: Ouff......this is a disaster.
Tangle: Nah......your new right? First days are always tough. Besides that kick was epic! How did that happen?
Belle: Oh yeah. If my tail gets pulled I do this kick thing. It's automatic, sorry.
Tangle grabs Belles tail and admires it.
Tangle: Werid Tail buddies!
Belle: Please don't pull that.
Belle: I'm Belle, nice to meet you......
Tangle: I'm Tangle and this is my boyfriend, Gotuce! We could pull all kinds of stunts with these babies. Let's be friends. Now we just need something exciting to happen.
Belle: Exciting how?
The three overhear something.
Female Mobian: Did you hear about the freak storm all along the coat? No way it's natural.
Female Mobian: Is it Dr. Eggman again?
Female Mobian: Who knows? I'm just glad it's not my job to figure it out.
Belle: Oh boy.
Tangle had a very sinister smile as she carries Belle under her arm and Gotuce by the hand.
Tangle: Jewel! We got trouble! Theres-
She see everyone already there.
Tangle:-Oh.
Sonic: Yo Tangle and Gotuce! Long time no see! Belle! Short time no see!
Tangle: Hey Sonic! What's up-
Jewel: Ah. Here we go! This was the last picture our scouting drone was able to get before the Strom surge took it out.
Tails: Look at the energy coming out from the top. Something that powerful would affect cloud formations in the area causing the storm.
Jewel: This is beyond what the Restorations equiped to handle. But we can't leave those villages in danger......
Sonic: No worries! If Eggman is up to something, Tails and I can handle it.
Amy: and me! I'm not missing out on another adventure with you Sonic!
Gotuce coughs as he gets everyones attention.
Gotuce: Or......I could just go there by myself, blast the power to smithereens......
Tails: That could be another plan!
Gotuce: What the! I the power the destroy planets and Your just gonna ignore that!
Tangle: You do!
Gotuce: Yes! I'm clearly the strongest! Have you seen what I did to Zavok!
Sonic: Alright, fine fine. Gotuce you'll come with us Incase things go south and destroy tthe tower.
Gotuce: Alright!
The four depart on the Tornado to the tower as they don't know what to expect inside.
