As he approaches the Improbable Zone with his own group of counterparts, Jugga Vugh Bat, Cryfecta, Jade Man and Moonlight Jade, can he hope to complete his quest and return home?\n\n*Fade out to Jade, Sticks and the Jade Squad at the doorway to the Improbable Zone*\n\nChapter 2: Chips with a world to rock!\n\n\nJugga: Here we are.\n\nCryfecta: Abandon all sense of logic, ye who enter here.\n\n*Cut to a frontal view of our heroes*\n\nJade Man: *Looks over at Moonlight* Just a reminder, this is my first mission with you guys, what should I expect?\n\nMoonlight: I'm sorry, but neither Jugga nor I have been to this or any of the other worlds ahead. \n\nJade Man (Sarcastically): *Looks to the ground on his right* Swell...\n\nMoonlight: *Turns his head to Jade Man* But as Cryfecta vaguely implied, this particular dimension is reported to be derived of any and all traditional perspective of what we deem logical.\n\nJade: *Cracks his knuckles as he steps in front of the door* Let's get going, A new season of Scrap Valley starts this Saturday on BreezTV and I don't plan on missing it. *Turns the knob and gets ready to enter*\n\nCryfecta: WAIT! *Grabs Jade by the arm*\n\nJade: *Looks over at Jugga* What the hell, man!?\n\nCryfecta: *Pokes his head into the door* Uh-huh, just as I suspected. This portal always leads to the sky on tuesdays! Ooh, and it looks like it's a cloudy day. *Jumps into the door* CANNONBALL! *Lands on the coud and looks around* Whoa, EXTREMELY coudy! *Stands up and pulls a pickaxe out of one of his pouches* Not to worry, I'll get us down in two shakes of a sloth's leg! *Starts striking the cloud in front of him*\n\n*Cut back up to the portal*\n\nJade: *Opens the right side of his jacket and starts rummaging through his pocket* Well, there's one of many advantages of having a jacket with pockets lined with pieces of a magic satchel. *Pulls out a shovel and jumps into the world* Move over, barbecue-face!\n\nSticks (Paniced): A SLOTH'S LEG ISN'T FAST ENOUGH! LEMME IN THERE! *Shrills and jumps in after Jade*\n\nJade Man: *Looks into the door*...Should we help too?\n\nMoonlight: Too many cooks spoil the broth. *Pulls out a white rose*\n\nCryfecta (Off-screen): Hey, Moonlight, toss down one of those rose bombs of your's would ya!?\n\nMoonlight: *Tosses the rose downward* Right on cue.\n\n*Cut to the rose landing dead-center of the trio*\n\nCryfecta: *Jumps into a nearby patch* TAKE COVER! *Jade and Sticks jump into a lump behind them. After the rose exploded, they look into the hole seeing no ground* ...Must be a brewing storm.\n\nJade: *Sigh* Well, Roam wasn't built in a day!\n\nCryfecta: ...What's a Roam?\n\nJade: Just get swingin'! *Jumps into the hole with Sticks*\n\nCryfecta (Singing): *Raises his pickaxe* HI-HOOOOOOOOOO! *Jumps in*\n\n*A mellow tune plays as we cut to the local Sonic and Tails at a picnic setting complete with a grill with hot dogs on it and a table. Adjacent to the grill is a pot of chili over a fire. I. Tails is stirring the chili*\n\nI. Tails: *Looks up* Gee, Sonic, it looks like rain!\n\nI. Sonic: I sure hope not, keed, I've been lookin' forward to a chilidog all day! *Looks up and smiles as the sky brightens up around them* See that? *Looks over at I. Tails as he approaches the table with a plate of chilidogs* Looks like Mother Nature's bein' uncharacteristically considerate.\n\n*The sound of Cryfecta from a distance is heard as I. Tails looks up squinting*\n\nI. Tails: ...Was Mother Nature always a color-blind bat in spandex with holes in his wings?\n\nI. Sonic: *Looks back up* Huh!?\n\n*Cut to Cryfecta flailing his arms in a panic with Jade, curled up and spinning forward right behind him with Sticks hanging onto his ears*\n\nCryfecta: MAY DAY! CINCO DE MAYO! MOTHER'S DAY! WAHAHAHOOWEE! *Cut to the ground where he crashes making a crator. A \"Cuckoo\" noise is heard as the dust clears*\n\nJade: *Lands superhero-style and stands up* And he sticks the landing.\n\n*Sticks lets go of Jade's ears and staggers around. The rest of the Jade Squad floats down as the clouds close up above*\n\nCryfecta (Dazed): I always forget about the superhero landing!\n\n*Cut to reveal that they landed behind I. Sonic*\n\nMoonlight: All things considered, I'd say this was one of our more symbolic entrances.\n\nSticks: *Shakes off her dizziness* Brain, make a note of this; Never hang on to a spinning bat's ears!\n\nJade: *Looks down at Sticks* I would've glided down if you asked...*Looks away and puts his hand to his chin* Then again, I probably wouldn't have heard you from the air current IN my ears.\n\nI. Sonic: Whoa, hang on, fellas! *Speeds in front of Cryfecta's hole as he climbs out of it* Who the heck ARE you guys!?\n\n*A few minutes later, everyone is gathered around the table. The music stops*\n\nJade: ...And that's pretty much the situation.\n\n*Cut to Jade's perspective. I. Sonic is sitting across from him between I. Tails and Jugga*\n\nI. Sonic: Sounds like a bad scene, mean green. *Smiles and gives a thumbs up. A \"Ding\" is heard as he winks* Well, the enemy of my Robuttnik is my bud! Tails and I'll help you out.\n\n*Cut to I. Sonic's perspective. Jade is between Sticks and Cryfecta*\n\nJade: Awesome, all we need to know now is where his base is.\n\nSticks: *Munch* *Munch* *Swallows and points to the chilidog on Jade's plate* You gonna eat that?\n\nJade: *Grimaces at his plate and pushes it to Sticks* Take it, chili doesn't exacly...Agree with me. To make matters worse, hot dogs give me gas. Not the best combo for a sonokinetic. Besides...*Looks up to the sky* I don't normally like to eat in such a foreboading atmosphere. *His right ear twitches* Huh? *Lowers his head and closes his eyes and hears the sound of a little boy crying to the south of him* Hmm...*Opens his eyes and stands up. The music ends* I'll be right back. *Rushes off until he encounters a small, hairless boy with blackish-blue skin, a blue mouth, yellow eyes, ears that look like part of his head drooping down and a strange v-shape on his forhead connedcted to a circular on on the back of his head by some lines wearing white gloves, red boots, a grey belt with a big yellow \"M\" on it and a jetpack bawling his eyes out. He approaches the boy and gets down on his right knee* Hey, kid, what's up?\n\nBoy: *Sob* You're not gonna hurt me, are you, mister?\n\n*Cut to a shot of Jade's right/the boy's left*\n\nJade: *Smirk* Nah, I ain't that kinda guy. You got a name, little guy?\n\nBokkun: *Sniff*...B...Bokkun.\n\nJade: *Looks to the ground on his right*...Odd name...*Looks back at Bokkun* So, what can I do for ya?\n\n*Cut to Jade's perspective*\n\nBokkun: *Pulls out what looks like a TV* He told me to give someone who looks like you this message or I would never see my brother again!\n\n*Zoom in on the TV. The TV turns on with I. Robotniks image I. Robotnik's theme starts to play*\n\nI. Robotnik: Greetings, Sir Jaden Octavius Grujaka Von Bat, IV. How do I know your name? That is because I, Doctor Robotnik am one of six brilliant minds who have come together to rule the multiverse! *Cut to Jade with a serious look on his face* My counterpart of your world informed us that apart form his Sonic, you are one of countless frequent hinderances to such a brilliant plan. *Cut to behind Jade who picks up the TV and stands up* Come find me at my fortress and we'll see if you can beat my challenge for the Data Spire! *Grins as he comes closer* I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY! AHAHAHA!\n\n*The music stops as the TV turns off. Cut to a wide shot of both of them*\n\nJade: *Looks at the TV with a quizical expression as he places his left hand on his hip* THIS guy sounds like he enjoys his work. *Looks back at Bokkun*\n\nBokkun: More than you think, he gave me that message right after he threw his own mother into quicksand!\n\n*The TV starts beeping. A countdown from 10 starts*\n\nJade: *Mutters \"Bastard!\" under his breath as he looks he looks over to the right* Lead me to her, kiddo, I'll get her ou- *Looks at the TV* I'm sorry, is this thing beeping? *The TV explodes covering Jade in soot* ...Ow...*Looks at Bokkun and drops his arms* So just show me where this lady is and I'll pull her out faster than you can say \"Where did she go wrong with him?\"\n\nBokkun (Happily): *His ear...Things perk up* You will!? *Floats upward* That's great, hurry, she's this way! *Flies off*\n\n*Jade extends his wings and follows Bokkun in the air. Cut to their perspective where they see a large woman in a dress and hat with a face similar to I. Robotnik's down to the moustache stuck in the quicksand with a forlorn look on her face*\n\nM(omma). Robotnik (Crying): OH-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO! Oh, woe is me, what kind of a cruel, sick, despicable tyrant would do this to his poor, sweet Momma!?\n\nJade: Not to worry, ma'am, help's on the way! *Lands in front of her with Bokkun behind him* Stand back, Bokkun, I'll show ya what kinda guy this Robotnik got himself involved against! *Pulls M. Robotnik out of the quicksand revealing her in black shoes* I can lift more than this, but you get the idea. *Puts M. Robotnik down to his right* No offense.\n\n*Bokkun jumps for joy*\n\nM. Robotnik: *Pulls out a hanky and blows into it making an airhorn sound. She then looks down at Jade while dabbing her tear ducts* *Sniff* Oh, thank you, young man. How can I EVER repay you?\n\nJade: *Dusts himself off with a smile, eyelids lowered* Just pay it forward...*Looks up at M. Robotnik* And if you can, steer clear of quicksand.\n\nM. Robotnik: But I MUST do something to show my graitude!\n\nJade: Well...I COULD use the location of your son's place.\n\nM. Robotnik: *Points to the east* Just east from here, you'll know where he is by the giant golden staue of him. \n\nJade: Thanks. *Walks past Bokkun and extends his wings. He then retracts them after a moment then looks back at M. Robotnik* Uh, before I go, was there a REASON he threw you in there?\n\nM. Robotnik: He may as WELL have thrown me in! We were having a nice walk in this meadow. I was trying to convince him to consider law school before he TRICKED me into STANDING in the quicksand! *Pulls out a thin, brown box* And all before I could give him this mixtape of songs that he used to hear to remind him of his days of being good!\n\nJade: *Takes the package and puts it in his pants pocket* Jeez, I had a feeling this guy was a grade-A ball of spite...Especially if he rigged a TV to explode after playing a recording of him.\n\nM. Robotnik: *Puts the hanky back up to her eyes* A TV OF ALL THINGS! *SOB!*\n\nJade: Dry your eyes, ma'am, I'll gather the troops and make him pay for his haneous crimes! *Flies away*\n\n*Cut to an above shot of Bokkun and M. Robotnik waving goodbye to Jade*\n\nBokkun: Good luck!\n\nM. Robotnik: And thank you!\n\n*Both of them look at each other with evil grins on their faces. Cut to a shot of both of them. Bokkun doubles over as he joins M. Robotnik laughing. I. Robotnik's theme starts playing*\n\nBokkun: AHA! AHA! AHAHAHA! *Whipes a tear away* I ALMOST LOST IT WHEN HE NOTICED THE BOMB TOO LATE!\n\nM. Robotnik (Gruff voice, sounds like she has a southern accent): *Looks over to Jade* That was TOO easy! I managed to kill two birds with one stone; Got myself outta that quicksand AND I got free express delivery! Good people are SO gullible! *Looks to her left. Pan over to a path that reads \"This way to Doctor Robotnik's fortress\" as she chuckles* So gullible, I can't believe he didn't notice that shortcut! *Points her thumb to the path and looks over at Bokkun* C'mon, small-fry, if we get there before HE does, we'll have front row seats to seeing his face when he gets EGG on it!\n\n*Both of them walk off to the path laughing. Cut to a small mountain with a winding path leading to a fortress. Adjacent to said fortress is a giant, golden statue of I. Robotnik deprived of detail. Close up to the fortress then cut to Pi watching I. Robotnik walk back and fourth to a room in the fortress*\n\nI. Robotnik: Ingenious! I daresay that teaming up with a group of parallel versions of me is the most stupendeous method I've found in reaching my goal to take over Mobius!\n\n*Cut to Pi*\n\nPi: *Rolls his eyes* You must be over the moon...*Smirk* And I didn't even have to send you that way.\n\nI. Robotnik (Angrily): *Steam blows out of where his ears would be followed by a whistle sound as he grumbles. He walks up to Pi* YOU WOULD BE ON THE MOON IF YOU WEREN'T SO IMPORTANT, YOU MISERABLE HUNK OF JUNK! If you were MY robot, I would have you melted down into a napkin ring for that crack!\n\n*Pan out. The Data Spire is present in the foreground*\n\nPi: Can't help it, it's in my programing. *Scowls half-way throught the following*\n\nI. Robotnik: *Walks over to his Data Spire* I'm beginning to question why I haven't considered assuming leadership from the man who created you! Honestly, he let such a sophisticated machine as you slip from his grasp and I must work under HIS guidance!?\n\nPi: *Relaxes his face* Well, it wasn't for a lack of trying. Between the only two students from his time he tried to retire as a teacher, I didn't have a choice *Glars at I. Robotnik as he turns over to him* I AM a ROBOT after all! *Looks away mutting the following* Talk to ME like I'm nothing more than nuts, bolts and circutry, you're LUCKY I'm stuck in this frickin' thing!\n\nI. Robotnik: MUHAHAHAHAHA! Your insabordinate programming aside, so long as you remain in that chair, our army is assured!\n\nPi: Yeah, but once Jade recongnizes my moveset, it's all over for you!\n\n*Cut to a shot of them in between a towering robotic humanoid dragon in a gi*\n\nI. Robotnik: From what I read of his dossier, I don't doubt such an eventuality, which is exactly why I'm constructing this new super robot designed specifically for the chip to combat him. *Grins as he pulls out a single-button remote control with a crooked antenna sticking out of it pointed to the nearby monitor* In the meantime, my S.S.S.S.S Squad will be keeping him AND that blue pest nice and occupied! *Presses the button*\n\n*As the faint sound of a lady cackling is heard within the music, the monitor turns on revealing the image of a large sneaker-shaped cage in an egg-shapped force field. Inside the cage is a pink prairie dog with spiked ponytails and a bronze-colored patch of fur on her muzzle frontal torso area wearing a brown tie-front belly-shirt, jean shorts held by a brown belt that go down from her knees and a pair of brown sandals shaking the bars*\n\nPrairie Dog (Fuming): LEMME OUTTA HERE AN' FIGHT ME LIKE REAL MEN, YA LILLY...WHATEVER-THE-HELL-THE-ROBOT-EQUIVALENT-OF-A-LIVER-ISED VARMENTS!\n\n*Cut to Pi. I. Robotnik is present in the foreground*\n\nPi: DOTTIE SUE! *Tries to break free* RRRRAGH! DAMN IT ALL! You're just poking the bear at this point! And mark my words, you don't want to meet the dragon that it will unleash.\n\nI. Robotnik: *Looks over at Pi* Doh spare me your threats! *Cut to a wide shot between them. From the monitor, we see Dottie Sue apparently exhausted* If those nincombots can do their job right for once, my Dragon Fu Robot will be flawless *The music finishes up as he laughs* AHAHAHAHAHAHA!\n\nPi (Annoyed): ...FOR THE UMPHTEENTH TIME, IT'S DORAGONKEN!\n\n*I. Robotnik glars and grumbles at Pi. Cut to Jade with Sticks on his back following I. Sonic and I. Tails with the Jade Squad tailing behind them. A tune that sounds similar to the first Sonic game's theme tune plays briefly before cutting to a close-up of the group*\n\nI. Sonic: *Looks behind him* Heads up, keeds, another ten miles and we're there!\n\nJade Man: ...*Looks over at Cryfecta* What's a keed?\n\nCryfecta: Search me, I just MET this Sonic.\n\nJade: Based on all the times I had to deal with my dimension's version of this guy (Usually when I team up with MY Sonic), he's probably got an army of robots at the ready. Once we power through, we should be ready for any nasty surprise- WHAT THE CRAP IS THIS!?\n\n*Everybody except for Jade and Sticks stop in their tracks*\n\nSticks: HIT THE BREAKS! HIT THE BREAAAKS!\n\nJade: *Stops at Dottie Sue's cage sitting on top of a square rock where she's curled up* Dottie Sue!?\n\nDottie Sue: *Looks over at Jade and happily crawls over to him* Jade! As ah live an' breathe! Ah was wonderin' when you'd show up! *Looks around with a grumpy look on her face as she stands up* Where're those silicon sidewinders? *Shakes her fist outside of her cage* AH AIN'T DONE YELLIN' AT 'EM!\n\nGrounder (Distressed): *Pokes his head out of a nearby rock to Jade's left catching everyone's attention* Give us a break, lady, why else are we hiding from you!?\n\n*A mellow version of I. Robotnik's theme plays*\n\nScratch: *Pops out with a robotic monkey with a lightbulb in his head* OOHOO! *Bops Grounder on the head* You just gave us away, stupid!\n\nMonkey: *Angrily shakes his fist* This is why I don't normally work wit you guys!\n\nScratch: *Glares at the monkey* Can it, Coconuts, YOU'RE only here because the guy Doctor Robotnik wanted to use went to pieces on him!\n\nJade: *Looks up at Dottie Sue* I'll take care of this. *Looks back over at the trio and points to the ground as everyone else shows up* All right, you Cyber-Stooges, get over here!\n\n*The S.S.S.S.S Squad walks over to the front of Dottie Sue's prison. Sticks jumps off of Jade*\n\nI. Sonic: What're you DUMBOTS up to this time?\n\nGrounder: HAHAHAHA...! *Looks up to Scratch* What ARE we up to?\n\n*Scratch gets ready to slap Grounder*\n\nCoconuts: I got this one. *Walks over to Grounder and slaps him* WE'RE SUPPOSED TO KEEP THE BIG GUY BUSY WHILE DOCTOR ROBOTNIK FINISHES HIS NEW ROBOT!\n\n*I. Sonic gets ready to say something snarky before he hears Jade crack his neck*\n\nJade: *Scratches the back of his head through the following* Sounds like an interesting toy in the works if he's going through this much trouble to keep it a surprise. *Folds his arms and smirks* In THAT case, what kind of fun activity do you have planned for us?\n\nI. Sonic: You WANT them to slow us down!?\n\nJade: *Looks down at I. Sonic* I like to give the guy I'm after a little time to make some final preparations for my vist, so sue me!\n\nI. Sonic (Angry): *Facepalm* Oh great, we teamed up with a bunch of slow-mos!\n\n*I. Tails pats I. Sonic on the back*\n\nScratch: *Pulls out a similar remote to what I. Robotnik had* BA HA HA HAAAA! Well, Doctor Robotnik's gonna have ALL the time he needs! *Gets ready to press the button*\n\nGrounder: HEY! I WANNA ACTIVATE IT.\n\nScratch: *Pulls the remote away* NO! DOCTOR ROBOTNIK GAVE ME THE REMOTE CONTROL!\n\n*Scratch and Grounder start fighting over it*\n\nCoconuts: Doh for cryin' out loud! *Takes the remote and presses the button*\n\n*Cut to Jade, Sticks, I. Sonic and I. Tails. Jade is sporting a bored look on his face*\n\nI. Sonic and I. Tails: *Look around* Huh!?\n\nSticks (Frightened): *Turns her head left to right* A SPACESHIP! *Grabs I. Tails and starts shaking him silly* THEY FINALLY FOUND ME! *Drops I. Tails* I KNEW THIS DAY WOULD COME!\n\n*Jade yawns as we cut back to the outer area of the frame. The music changes to something a little more straining*\n\nCoconuts: *Smiles as a giant series of circular frames comes up from the ground around everyone. The frames then forms domes over them. Cut to the interior where it's dark. A series of lights turn on brightening the room. He then jumps on top of the force field* HAHAHAHA! Behold, Blue Pest and Co., welcome to Blunderdome! Once the three of us enter these rooms, you'll have'ta take on each of us!\n\n*Cut back and forth between Jade and Cocounts during the following conversation*\n\nJade: *Gives a \"Move it along\" gesture* Yeah, yeah, basic stuff! Get to the good part, Banana Boy!\n\nCoconuts: You beat us and yer pretty little friend here goes free!\n\nJade: Kinda figured that much.\n\nCoconuts (Fuming): *Steam starts firing out of his head* OH YEAH!? YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!? Well, how about THIS tidbit, smart, guy!? Each room controls a different part of this set-up here!\n\nJade: Does one part explain why it looks like a certain old lady and her kids suddenly took up prairie dog-poaching?\n\nDottie Sue: ...Honestly, AH was kinda wonderin' that mahself.\n\nCoconuts: HA! That cage is made of solid diamond.\n\nJade: A girl's best friend and a Dragon Keeper's worst obstacle.\n\nDottie Sue: How d'ya think AH feel bein' both?\n\n*Cut to Grounder pointing to the cage*\n\nGrounder: And it's shaped like that because thats the only way she can be held down by the Magnetic Sneaker-Gripper Sonic-Trapper Rug under it...*Looks at Dottie Sue's feet* For obvious reasons...*Looks her feet over and looks at Jade* I have a question.\n\nJade: Shoot.\n\nGrounder: Does NOBODY have toes where you're from or is it just her?\n\nJade: In our dimension, they're exclusive to human and animal anatomy.\n\nGrounder: Oh.\n\n*Cut to Jade and Co. I. Sonic has an agrivated look on his face with his arms folded and his foot tapping*\n\nCryfecta: Weird...*Looks at the direction of Dottie Sue's feet* Yet there's train wreck value to it. *Jade elbows him in the gut* BOOHOOF! You are SO lucky I can re-grow my organs, 'caus I think you popped a kidney with that one!\n\nJade: I was aiming for your apendex. *Tenses up and goes wall-eyed at the following*\n\nI. Sonic: I'M WAAAAAAITING!\n\nJade: BUH! OH GYAWD! *Falls to the ground catching everyone's attention*\n\n*Cut to a wide shot of everyone. Jade is sporting an expression implying pain, his body twitching every couple of seconds*\n\nCoconuts: The bottom line is, none of you are getting out until you beat us! Nope! Nope, nope, nope! HAHAHAHA! *Notices Jade isn't responsing after waiting. He jumps on top of him as the music lowers in quality and eventually stops* Hey! Hey! Hey! HEY! I'm talking to you!\n\nDottie Sue: He ain't gonna be able to respond to ya right now.\n\nCoconuts: *Looks up at Dottie Sue* Oh, and why's that?\n\nDottie Sue: 'Cause yer Sonic went an' hit the right note, knockin' him out! Ah reckon he'll come to in about an hour past this here sentence.\n\n*Exactly an hour later, Jade wakes up*\n\nJade: Oog *Shakes his head* THAT rattled my skull a bit. *Notices everyone else missing. He then looks over at Sticks banging on the force field shrilling* Hey!\n\nSticks: *Beams as she looks down at Jade* Oh, good, you're awake! *Jumps off the force field and walks over to him*\n\nJade: Where'd everybody go?\n\n*Sticks helps Jade up. Jade turns away from the cage looking around. Cut to a wider shot of the area with the right side of Jade's face in the foreground. During the following, a monitor slowly lowers then shows Scratch with what looks like an angry look in his eyes while grinning followed by some speakers*\n\nDottie Sue: They're takin' on the robots in those grooms around us. Ah would've stopped 'em, but ah know how stuborn you can be, so what chance did ah have talking FOUR of you AN' Sonic outta waitin'?\n\nJade (Upset): Yeah, well now, I have to wait!\n\n*I. Robotnik's theme plays*\n\nScratch: *Makes Jade look angrily from the corner of his eye with the following* BA HA HA HAAAA! Not as long as you THINK!\n\n*Cut to the monitor's perspective. An angry Jade turns around and flies up to it*\n\nJade: What did you do!? *Cut to a shot of him three feet away from the monitor* Where IS everybody!?\n\n*Cut to behind Jade. Grounder's image slides in from the left of Scratch's *Folds his arms during the following*\n\nGrounder: They're-\n\nScratch: *Pushes the Grounder image away* BACK OFF, BOLTS-FOR-BRAINS! I'M doing the exposition now! *Turns back scratching his head to see Jade. Cut to a side view of them with Jade sporting a \"Come on, guys, get it together\" look on his face* Now where WAS I?\n\nJade (Dryly): ...You were cackling then telling me I didn't have to wait. I then flew up here asking what happened and your buddy interrupted you.\n\nScratch: Oh yeah, thanks!\n\nJade: Anytime, Larroid Fine-thousand.\n\n*Cut to the front of the monitor*\n\nScratch: Why don't you take a look? BA HA HA HAAAA!\n\n*The song wraps up. Zoom in on the monitor as until only what's on the now-distorted screen is seen the image of everyone gathered around Jade's unconcious body*\n\nDottie Sue: He ain't gonna be able to respond to ya right now.\n\nCoconuts: *Looks up at Dottie Sue* Oh, and why's that?\n\nDottie Sue: 'Cause yer Sonic went an' hit the right note, knockin' him out! Ah reckon he'll come to in about an hour past this here sentence.\n\nCoconuts: I'M NOT WAITING THAT LONG! *Starts jumping on Jade* NO! NO! NO, NO, NO!\n\nScratch: *Points his thumb to himself* WE'RE not waiting either! *Heads to the room to the left* So we'll just deal with Sonic, Tails and the REST of these big-eared losers first. \n\n*Coconuts enters the room to the right while Grounder entered the one behind Dottie Sue. Everyone else looks down at Jade who's stopped twitching. His face has relaxed and his eyes are closed*\n\nJade Man: ...So...What do we do now?\n\nI. Sonic: *Looks up at Jade Man* Weren't you paying attention? they want US to take them on while they're-\n\nDottie Sue: Boy, we want him to recover, so do us all a favor and don't finish THAT sentence!\n\nI. Sonic: *Looks at Dottie Sue* Sorry, I normally say it like that when I taunt those dumbots...*Looks back at Jade*\n\nDottie Sue: Like ah said, it was probably that note coupled with that voice of yer's that did the trick.\n\nI. Sonic: *Glares at Dottie Sue* What's wrong with these pipes of mine?\n\nDottie Sue: No disrespect, certain sounds just do different things to him.\n\nJugga: *Stands up* Well, we can't stall this any longer. We'll have to decide who goes after who.\n\nJade Man: *Cryfecta grabs him by the arm* HEY!\n\nCryfecta: DIBS ON THE NEW GUY AND THE MONKEY! *Dashes off*\n\nMoonlight: *Rubs his chin* Hmm...That Grounder looked a lot like the one we encountered in the Prime Zone before the collapse.\n\nJugga: In that case, he should be equipped with various weapons. *Looks over to Moonlight* And since WE'RE the ones who took care of THAT Grounder, we should do the same here.\n\n*Jugga and Moonlight leave for Grounder's area*\n\nI. Sonic: Well, little bro, looks like THAT leaves us with Scratch!\n\nI. Tails (Sarcastically): Tough break!\n\nI. Sonic: Couldn't have said it better myself! *Grabs I. Tails at the arm* Let's burn, vern! *Speeds off to Scratch's door*\n\n*Cut to a wide shot. Everyone except for Jade, Sticks and Dottie Sue has left*\n\nSticks (Annoyed): *Looks left to right* ...DID I JUST GET LEFT HOLDING THE BAG!?\n\n*The screen distorts again. Cut back back to Jade and the monitor Jade now has a lowered right brow*\n\nJade: So what's the hold-up?\n\nScratch: BA HA HAAAA! See for yourself, you green dope! *Cut to Jade's persepective of the monitor. Through the following, the image on the screen changes to I. Sonic and I. Tails stuck on a rug, Cryfecta and Jade Man in a force field, Jugga and Moonlight in a square cage then back to him* We've captured your buddies by means of what's keeping your country bumpkin of a gal pal in her place!\n\nJade (Steamed): *Clenches his fists growling. He proceeds to shaking his fist during the following* WHAT!? BUMPKIN!? BU-BUMPKIN, WHAT!? WHAT...!? WHAT...!? BUMPKIN, WHAT!? *Gets ready to punch the screen*\n\nDottie Sue (Off-Screen): NOW you've done it, pard!\n\nScratch: *Jade's fist goes through the screen and hits him instead of shattering it* AHOW! \n\nJade: Thanks to THAT crack, YOU'RE my first target!\n\nScratch: *Shakes off the blow* Fine by me...*Pokes his head out of the monitor pressing it to Jade's face* COWBOY! *Retracts his head* BA HA HA HAAAA! BA HA HAAAA!\n\n*The screen turns off as the monitor retracts. Cut to the door to Scratch's arena opening. Jade lands at the entrance*\n\nJade: Sticks, I need you to keep Dottie Sue company while I'm gone. This shouldn't take long. *Starts running down the hall* I'M CALLIN' YOU OUT, MAN! *The door closes behind him*\n\n*Pan out to Sticks and Dottie Sue*\n\nSticks: ...*Looks up at Dottie Sue* Why's he calling him out if they already want to fight each other?\n\nDottie Sue: That's just his battle cry.\n\n*Pan out further revealing this being seen on a monitor. Cut to the other Robotniks/Eggmen all sat around a table in what appears to be a board room L. Orbot and L. Cubot are floating between L. Eggman*\n\nX. Eggman: Hmm...He's spirited, I'll give him that.\n\nS. Robotnik: I've waited long enough to see this boy in action. *Rubs his hands together with a grin* We'll see if his reputation is true.\n\nL. Orbot: Be careful what you wish for.\n\nL. Cubot: Dern tootin', that rooster went an' provoked him worse than a polecat at a perfume convention. So iffen he learns of Pi's role in this rodeo now...\n\n*Cut to a close up of L. Eggman's eyes*\n\nL. Eggman: ...Then Heaven help us all...\n\n*Fade out. Fade in to a clip montage of the next chapter to some action music*\n\nJade (Voice-Over): So, I make my way to the arena where that robo-rooster. Wait, what was that last part!? Is THAT so? Oh, NOW these jackasses have my attention! When next Heroes Unite, \"Who goes first? The Chicken of the Eggman! Jade Vs. Scratch!\" It all comes together!","writing_bbcode_parsed":"*Cue recap montage*

Announcer: When we last left our hero, he was briefed on his current situation and tasked to transfer a feral badger named Sticks back to her dimension as he makes his way to his, both of which are blocked by a gang of Robotniks lead by the counterpart from Jade's home dimension. As he approaches the Improbable Zone with his own group of counterparts, Jugga Vugh Bat, Cryfecta, Jade Man and Moonlight Jade, can he hope to complete his quest and return home?

*Fade out to Jade, Sticks and the Jade Squad at the doorway to the Improbable Zone*

Chapter 2: Chips with a world to rock!


Jugga: Here we are.

Cryfecta: Abandon all sense of logic, ye who enter here.

*Cut to a frontal view of our heroes*

Jade Man: *Looks over at Moonlight* Just a reminder, this is my first mission with you guys, what should I expect?

Moonlight: I'm sorry, but neither Jugga nor I have been to this or any of the other worlds ahead.

Jade Man (Sarcastically): *Looks to the ground on his right* Swell...

Moonlight: *Turns his head to Jade Man* But as Cryfecta vaguely implied, this particular dimension is reported to be derived of any and all traditional perspective of what we deem logical.

Jade: *Cracks his knuckles as he steps in front of the door* Let's get going, A new season of Scrap Valley starts this Saturday on BreezTV and I don't plan on missing it. *Turns the knob and gets ready to enter*

Cryfecta: WAIT! *Grabs Jade by the arm*

Jade: *Looks over at Jugga* What the hell, man!?

Cryfecta: *Pokes his head into the door* Uh-huh, just as I suspected. This portal always leads to the sky on tuesdays! Ooh, and it looks like it's a cloudy day. *Jumps into the door* CANNONBALL! *Lands on the coud and looks around* Whoa, EXTREMELY coudy! *Stands up and pulls a pickaxe out of one of his pouches* Not to worry, I'll get us down in two shakes of a sloth's leg! *Starts striking the cloud in front of him*

*Cut back up to the portal*

Jade: *Opens the right side of his jacket and starts rummaging through his pocket* Well, there's one of many advantages of having a jacket with pockets lined with pieces of a magic satchel. *Pulls out a shovel and jumps into the world* Move over, barbecue-face!

Sticks (Paniced): A SLOTH'S LEG ISN'T FAST ENOUGH! LEMME IN THERE! *Shrills and jumps in after Jade*

Jade Man: *Looks into the door*...Should we help too?

Moonlight: Too many cooks spoil the broth. *Pulls out a white rose*

Cryfecta (Off-screen): Hey, Moonlight, toss down one of those rose bombs of your's would ya!?

Moonlight: *Tosses the rose downward* Right on cue.

*Cut to the rose landing dead-center of the trio*

Cryfecta: *Jumps into a nearby patch* TAKE COVER! *Jade and Sticks jump into a lump behind them. After the rose exploded, they look into the hole seeing no ground* ...Must be a brewing storm.

Jade: *Sigh* Well, Roam wasn't built in a day!

Cryfecta: ...What's a Roam?

Jade: Just get swingin'! *Jumps into the hole with Sticks*

Cryfecta (Singing): *Raises his pickaxe* HI-HOOOOOOOOOO! *Jumps in*

*A mellow tune plays as we cut to the local Sonic and Tails at a picnic setting complete with a grill with hot dogs on it and a table. Adjacent to the grill is a pot of chili over a fire. I. Tails is stirring the chili*

I. Tails: *Looks up* Gee, Sonic, it looks like rain!

I. Sonic: I sure hope not, keed, I've been lookin' forward to a chilidog all day! *Looks up and smiles as the sky brightens up around them* See that? *Looks over at I. Tails as he approaches the table with a plate of chilidogs* Looks like Mother Nature's bein' uncharacteristically considerate.

*The sound of Cryfecta from a distance is heard as I. Tails looks up squinting*

I. Tails: ...Was Mother Nature always a color-blind bat in spandex with holes in his wings?

I. Sonic: *Looks back up* Huh!?

*Cut to Cryfecta flailing his arms in a panic with Jade, curled up and spinning forward right behind him with Sticks hanging onto his ears*

Cryfecta: MAY DAY! CINCO DE MAYO! MOTHER'S DAY! WAHAHAHOOWEE! *Cut to the ground where he crashes making a crator. A "Cuckoo" noise is heard as the dust clears*

Jade: *Lands superhero-style and stands up* And he sticks the landing.

*Sticks lets go of Jade's ears and staggers around. The rest of the Jade Squad floats down as the clouds close up above*

Cryfecta (Dazed): I always forget about the superhero landing!

*Cut to reveal that they landed behind I. Sonic*

Moonlight: All things considered, I'd say this was one of our more symbolic entrances.

Sticks: *Shakes off her dizziness* Brain, make a note of this; Never hang on to a spinning bat's ears!

Jade: *Looks down at Sticks* I would've glided down if you asked...*Looks away and puts his hand to his chin* Then again, I probably wouldn't have heard you from the air current IN my ears.

I. Sonic: Whoa, hang on, fellas! *Speeds in front of Cryfecta's hole as he climbs out of it* Who the heck ARE you guys!?

*A few minutes later, everyone is gathered around the table. The music stops*

Jade: ...And that's pretty much the situation.

*Cut to Jade's perspective. I. Sonic is sitting across from him between I. Tails and Jugga*

I. Sonic: Sounds like a bad scene, mean green. *Smiles and gives a thumbs up. A "Ding" is heard as he winks* Well, the enemy of my Robuttnik is my bud! Tails and I'll help you out.

*Cut to I. Sonic's perspective. Jade is between Sticks and Cryfecta*

Jade: Awesome, all we need to know now is where his base is.

Sticks: *Munch* *Munch* *Swallows and points to the chilidog on Jade's plate* You gonna eat that?

Jade: *Grimaces at his plate and pushes it to Sticks* Take it, chili doesn't exacly...Agree with me. To make matters worse, hot dogs give me gas. Not the best combo for a sonokinetic. Besides...*Looks up to the sky* I don't normally like to eat in such a foreboading atmosphere. *His right ear twitches* Huh? *Lowers his head and closes his eyes and hears the sound of a little boy crying to the south of him* Hmm...*Opens his eyes and stands up. The music ends* I'll be right back. *Rushes off until he encounters a small, hairless boy with blackish-blue skin, a blue mouth, yellow eyes, ears that look like part of his head drooping down and a strange v-shape on his forhead connedcted to a circular on on the back of his head by some lines wearing white gloves, red boots, a grey belt with a big yellow "M" on it and a jetpack bawling his eyes out. He approaches the boy and gets down on his right knee* Hey, kid, what's up?

Boy: *Sob* You're not gonna hurt me, are you, mister?

*Cut to a shot of Jade's right/the boy's left*

Jade: *Smirk* Nah, I ain't that kinda guy. You got a name, little guy?

Bokkun: *Sniff*...B...Bokkun.

Jade: *Looks to the ground on his right*...Odd name...*Looks back at Bokkun* So, what can I do for ya?

*Cut to Jade's perspective*

Bokkun: *Pulls out what looks like a TV* He told me to give someone who looks like you this message or I would never see my brother again!

*Zoom in on the TV. The TV turns on with I. Robotniks image I. Robotnik's theme starts to play*

I. Robotnik: Greetings, Sir Jaden Octavius Grujaka Von Bat, IV. How do I know your name? That is because I, Doctor Robotnik am one of six brilliant minds who have come together to rule the multiverse! *Cut to Jade with a serious look on his face* My counterpart of your world informed us that apart form his Sonic, you are one of countless frequent hinderances to such a brilliant plan. *Cut to behind Jade who picks up the TV and stands up* Come find me at my fortress and we'll see if you can beat my challenge for the Data Spire! *Grins as he comes closer* I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY! AHAHAHA!

*The music stops as the TV turns off. Cut to a wide shot of both of them*

Jade: *Looks at the TV with a quizical expression as he places his left hand on his hip* THIS guy sounds like he enjoys his work. *Looks back at Bokkun*

Bokkun: More than you think, he gave me that message right after he threw his own mother into quicksand!

*The TV starts beeping. A countdown from 10 starts*

Jade: *Mutters "Bastard!" under his breath as he looks he looks over to the right* Lead me to her, kiddo, I'll get her ou- *Looks at the TV* I'm sorry, is this thing beeping? *The TV explodes covering Jade in soot* ...Ow...*Looks at Bokkun and drops his arms* So just show me where this lady is and I'll pull her out faster than you can say "Where did she go wrong with him?"

Bokkun (Happily): *His ear...Things perk up* You will!? *Floats upward* That's great, hurry, she's this way! *Flies off*

*Jade extends his wings and follows Bokkun in the air. Cut to their perspective where they see a large woman in a dress and hat with a face similar to I. Robotnik's down to the moustache stuck in the quicksand with a forlorn look on her face*

M(omma). Robotnik (Crying): OH-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO! Oh, woe is me, what kind of a cruel, sick, despicable tyrant would do this to his poor, sweet Momma!?

Jade: Not to worry, ma'am, help's on the way! *Lands in front of her with Bokkun behind him* Stand back, Bokkun, I'll show ya what kinda guy this Robotnik got himself involved against! *Pulls M. Robotnik out of the quicksand revealing her in black shoes* I can lift more than this, but you get the idea. *Puts M. Robotnik down to his right* No offense.

*Bokkun jumps for joy*

M. Robotnik: *Pulls out a hanky and blows into it making an airhorn sound. She then looks down at Jade while dabbing her tear ducts* *Sniff* Oh, thank you, young man. How can I EVER repay you?

Jade: *Dusts himself off with a smile, eyelids lowered* Just pay it forward...*Looks up at M. Robotnik* And if you can, steer clear of quicksand.

M. Robotnik: But I MUST do something to show my graitude!

Jade: Well...I COULD use the location of your son's place.

M. Robotnik: *Points to the east* Just east from here, you'll know where he is by the giant golden staue of him.

Jade: Thanks. *Walks past Bokkun and extends his wings. He then retracts them after a moment then looks back at M. Robotnik* Uh, before I go, was there a REASON he threw you in there?

M. Robotnik: He may as WELL have thrown me in! We were having a nice walk in this meadow. I was trying to convince him to consider law school before he TRICKED me into STANDING in the quicksand! *Pulls out a thin, brown box* And all before I could give him this mixtape of songs that he used to hear to remind him of his days of being good!

Jade: *Takes the package and puts it in his pants pocket* Jeez, I had a feeling this guy was a grade-A ball of spite...Especially if he rigged a TV to explode after playing a recording of him.

M. Robotnik: *Puts the hanky back up to her eyes* A TV OF ALL THINGS! *SOB!*

Jade: Dry your eyes, ma'am, I'll gather the troops and make him pay for his haneous crimes! *Flies away*

*Cut to an above shot of Bokkun and M. Robotnik waving goodbye to Jade*

Bokkun: Good luck!

M. Robotnik: And thank you!

*Both of them look at each other with evil grins on their faces. Cut to a shot of both of them. Bokkun doubles over as he joins M. Robotnik laughing. I. Robotnik's theme starts playing*

Bokkun: AHA! AHA! AHAHAHA! *Whipes a tear away* I ALMOST LOST IT WHEN HE NOTICED THE BOMB TOO LATE!

M. Robotnik (Gruff voice, sounds like she has a southern accent): *Looks over to Jade* That was TOO easy! I managed to kill two birds with one stone; Got myself outta that quicksand AND I got free express delivery! Good people are SO gullible! *Looks to her left. Pan over to a path that reads "This way to Doctor Robotnik's fortress" as she chuckles* So gullible, I can't believe he didn't notice that shortcut! *Points her thumb to the path and looks over at Bokkun* C'mon, small-fry, if we get there before HE does, we'll have front row seats to seeing his face when he gets EGG on it!

*Both of them walk off to the path laughing. Cut to a small mountain with a winding path leading to a fortress. Adjacent to said fortress is a giant, golden statue of I. Robotnik deprived of detail. Close up to the fortress then cut to Pi watching I. Robotnik walk back and fourth to a room in the fortress*

I. Robotnik: Ingenious! I daresay that teaming up with a group of parallel versions of me is the most stupendeous method I've found in reaching my goal to take over Mobius!

*Cut to Pi*

Pi: *Rolls his eyes* You must be over the moon...*Smirk* And I didn't even have to send you that way.

I. Robotnik (Angrily): *Steam blows out of where his ears would be followed by a whistle sound as he grumbles. He walks up to Pi* YOU WOULD BE ON THE MOON IF YOU WEREN'T SO IMPORTANT, YOU MISERABLE HUNK OF JUNK! If you were MY robot, I would have you melted down into a napkin ring for that crack!

*Pan out. The Data Spire is present in the foreground*

Pi: Can't help it, it's in my programing. *Scowls half-way throught the following*

I. Robotnik: *Walks over to his Data Spire* I'm beginning to question why I haven't considered assuming leadership from the man who created you! Honestly, he let such a sophisticated machine as you slip from his grasp and I must work under HIS guidance!?

Pi: *Relaxes his face* Well, it wasn't for a lack of trying. Between the only two students from his time he tried to retire as a teacher, I didn't have a choice *Glars at I. Robotnik as he turns over to him* I AM a ROBOT after all! *Looks away mutting the following* Talk to ME like I'm nothing more than nuts, bolts and circutry, you're LUCKY I'm stuck in this frickin' thing!

I. Robotnik: MUHAHAHAHAHA! Your insabordinate programming aside, so long as you remain in that chair, our army is assured!

Pi: Yeah, but once Jade recongnizes my moveset, it's all over for you!

*Cut to a shot of them in between a towering robotic humanoid dragon in a gi*

I. Robotnik: From what I read of his dossier, I don't doubt such an eventuality, which is exactly why I'm constructing this new super robot designed specifically for the chip to combat him. *Grins as he pulls out a single-button remote control with a crooked antenna sticking out of it pointed to the nearby monitor* In the meantime, my S.S.S.S.S Squad will be keeping him AND that blue pest nice and occupied! *Presses the button*

*As the faint sound of a lady cackling is heard within the music, the monitor turns on revealing the image of a large sneaker-shaped cage in an egg-shapped force field. Inside the cage is a pink prairie dog with spiked ponytails and a bronze-colored patch of fur on her muzzle frontal torso area wearing a brown tie-front belly-shirt, jean shorts held by a brown belt that go down from her knees and a pair of brown sandals shaking the bars*

Prairie Dog (Fuming): LEMME OUTTA HERE AN' FIGHT ME LIKE REAL MEN, YA LILLY...WHATEVER-THE-HELL-THE-ROBOT-EQUIVALENT-OF-A-LIVER-ISED VARMENTS!

*Cut to Pi. I. Robotnik is present in the foreground*

Pi: DOTTIE SUE! *Tries to break free* RRRRAGH! DAMN IT ALL! You're just poking the bear at this point! And mark my words, you don't want to meet the dragon that it will unleash.

I. Robotnik: *Looks over at Pi* Doh spare me your threats! *Cut to a wide shot between them. From the monitor, we see Dottie Sue apparently exhausted* If those nincombots can do their job right for once, my Dragon Fu Robot will be flawless *The music finishes up as he laughs* AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Pi (Annoyed): ...FOR THE UMPHTEENTH TIME, IT'S DORAGONKEN!

*I. Robotnik glars and grumbles at Pi. Cut to Jade with Sticks on his back following I. Sonic and I. Tails with the Jade Squad tailing behind them. A tune that sounds similar to the first Sonic game's theme tune plays briefly before cutting to a close-up of the group*

I. Sonic: *Looks behind him* Heads up, keeds, another ten miles and we're there!

Jade Man: ...*Looks over at Cryfecta* What's a keed?

Cryfecta: Search me, I just MET this Sonic.

Jade: Based on all the times I had to deal with my dimension's version of this guy (Usually when I team up with MY Sonic), he's probably got an army of robots at the ready. Once we power through, we should be ready for any nasty surprise- WHAT THE CRAP IS THIS!?

*Everybody except for Jade and Sticks stop in their tracks*

Sticks: HIT THE BREAKS! HIT THE BREAAAKS!

Jade: *Stops at Dottie Sue's cage sitting on top of a square rock where she's curled up* Dottie Sue!?

Dottie Sue: *Looks over at Jade and happily crawls over to him* Jade! As ah live an' breathe! Ah was wonderin' when you'd show up! *Looks around with a grumpy look on her face as she stands up* Where're those silicon sidewinders? *Shakes her fist outside of her cage* AH AIN'T DONE YELLIN' AT 'EM!

Grounder (Distressed): *Pokes his head out of a nearby rock to Jade's left catching everyone's attention* Give us a break, lady, why else are we hiding from you!?

*A mellow version of I. Robotnik's theme plays*

Scratch: *Pops out with a robotic monkey with a lightbulb in his head* OOHOO! *Bops Grounder on the head* You just gave us away, stupid!

Monkey: *Angrily shakes his fist* This is why I don't normally work wit you guys!

Scratch: *Glares at the monkey* Can it, Coconuts, YOU'RE only here because the guy Doctor Robotnik wanted to use went to pieces on him!

Jade: *Looks up at Dottie Sue* I'll take care of this. *Looks back over at the trio and points to the ground as everyone else shows up* All right, you Cyber-Stooges, get over here!

*The S.S.S.S.S Squad walks over to the front of Dottie Sue's prison. Sticks jumps off of Jade*

I. Sonic: What're you DUMBOTS up to this time?

Grounder: HAHAHAHA...! *Looks up to Scratch* What ARE we up to?

*Scratch gets ready to slap Grounder*

Coconuts: I got this one. *Walks over to Grounder and slaps him* WE'RE SUPPOSED TO KEEP THE BIG GUY BUSY WHILE DOCTOR ROBOTNIK FINISHES HIS NEW ROBOT!

*I. Sonic gets ready to say something snarky before he hears Jade crack his neck*

Jade: *Scratches the back of his head through the following* Sounds like an interesting toy in the works if he's going through this much trouble to keep it a surprise. *Folds his arms and smirks* In THAT case, what kind of fun activity do you have planned for us?

I. Sonic: You WANT them to slow us down!?

Jade: *Looks down at I. Sonic* I like to give the guy I'm after a little time to make some final preparations for my vist, so sue me!

I. Sonic (Angry): *Facepalm* Oh great, we teamed up with a bunch of slow-mos!

*I. Tails pats I. Sonic on the back*

Scratch: *Pulls out a similar remote to what I. Robotnik had* BA HA HA HAAAA! Well, Doctor Robotnik's gonna have ALL the time he needs! *Gets ready to press the button*

Grounder: HEY! I WANNA ACTIVATE IT.

Scratch: *Pulls the remote away* NO! DOCTOR ROBOTNIK GAVE ME THE REMOTE CONTROL!

*Scratch and Grounder start fighting over it*

Coconuts: Doh for cryin' out loud! *Takes the remote and presses the button*

*Cut to Jade, Sticks, I. Sonic and I. Tails. Jade is sporting a bored look on his face*

I. Sonic and I. Tails: *Look around* Huh!?

Sticks (Frightened): *Turns her head left to right* A SPACESHIP! *Grabs I. Tails and starts shaking him silly* THEY FINALLY FOUND ME! *Drops I. Tails* I KNEW THIS DAY WOULD COME!

*Jade yawns as we cut back to the outer area of the frame. The music changes to something a little more straining*

Coconuts: *Smiles as a giant series of circular frames comes up from the ground around everyone. The frames then forms domes over them. Cut to the interior where it's dark. A series of lights turn on brightening the room. He then jumps on top of the force field* HAHAHAHA! Behold, Blue Pest and Co., welcome to Blunderdome! Once the three of us enter these rooms, you'll have'ta take on each of us!

*Cut back and forth between Jade and Cocounts during the following conversation*

Jade: *Gives a "Move it along" gesture* Yeah, yeah, basic stuff! Get to the good part, Banana Boy!

Coconuts: You beat us and yer pretty little friend here goes free!

Jade: Kinda figured that much.

Coconuts (Fuming): *Steam starts firing out of his head* OH YEAH!? YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!? Well, how about THIS tidbit, smart, guy!? Each room controls a different part of this set-up here!

Jade: Does one part explain why it looks like a certain old lady and her kids suddenly took up prairie dog-poaching?

Dottie Sue: ...Honestly, AH was kinda wonderin' that mahself.

Coconuts: HA! That cage is made of solid diamond.

Jade: A girl's best friend and a Dragon Keeper's worst obstacle.

Dottie Sue: How d'ya think AH feel bein' both?

*Cut to Grounder pointing to the cage*

Grounder: And it's shaped like that because thats the only way she can be held down by the Magnetic Sneaker-Gripper Sonic-Trapper Rug under it...*Looks at Dottie Sue's feet* For obvious reasons...*Looks her feet over and looks at Jade* I have a question.

Jade: Shoot.

Grounder: Does NOBODY have toes where you're from or is it just her?

Jade: In our dimension, they're exclusive to human and animal anatomy.

Grounder: Oh.

*Cut to Jade and Co. I. Sonic has an agrivated look on his face with his arms folded and his foot tapping*

Cryfecta: Weird...*Looks at the direction of Dottie Sue's feet* Yet there's train wreck value to it. *Jade elbows him in the gut* BOOHOOF! You are SO lucky I can re-grow my organs, 'caus I think you popped a kidney with that one!

Jade: I was aiming for your apendex. *Tenses up and goes wall-eyed at the following*

I. Sonic: I'M WAAAAAAITING!

Jade: BUH! OH GYAWD! *Falls to the ground catching everyone's attention*

*Cut to a wide shot of everyone. Jade is sporting an expression implying pain, his body twitching every couple of seconds*

Coconuts: The bottom line is, none of you are getting out until you beat us! Nope! Nope, nope, nope! HAHAHAHA! *Notices Jade isn't responsing after waiting. He jumps on top of him as the music lowers in quality and eventually stops* Hey! Hey! Hey! HEY! I'm talking to you!

Dottie Sue: He ain't gonna be able to respond to ya right now.

Coconuts: *Looks up at Dottie Sue* Oh, and why's that?

Dottie Sue: 'Cause yer Sonic went an' hit the right note, knockin' him out! Ah reckon he'll come to in about an hour past this here sentence.

*Exactly an hour later, Jade wakes up*

Jade: Oog *Shakes his head* THAT rattled my skull a bit. *Notices everyone else missing. He then looks over at Sticks banging on the force field shrilling* Hey!

Sticks: *Beams as she looks down at Jade* Oh, good, you're awake! *Jumps off the force field and walks over to him*

Jade: Where'd everybody go?

*Sticks helps Jade up. Jade turns away from the cage looking around. Cut to a wider shot of the area with the right side of Jade's face in the foreground. During the following, a monitor slowly lowers then shows Scratch with what looks like an angry look in his eyes while grinning followed by some speakers*

Dottie Sue: They're takin' on the robots in those grooms around us. Ah would've stopped 'em, but ah know how stuborn you can be, so what chance did ah have talking FOUR of you AN' Sonic outta waitin'?

Jade (Upset): Yeah, well now, I have to wait!

*I. Robotnik's theme plays*

Scratch: *Makes Jade look angrily from the corner of his eye with the following* BA HA HA HAAAA! Not as long as you THINK!

*Cut to the monitor's perspective. An angry Jade turns around and flies up to it*

Jade: What did you do!? *Cut to a shot of him three feet away from the monitor* Where IS everybody!?

*Cut to behind Jade. Grounder's image slides in from the left of Scratch's *Folds his arms during the following*

Grounder: They're-

Scratch: *Pushes the Grounder image away* BACK OFF, BOLTS-FOR-BRAINS! I'M doing the exposition now! *Turns back scratching his head to see Jade. Cut to a side view of them with Jade sporting a "Come on, guys, get it together" look on his face* Now where WAS I?

Jade (Dryly): ...You were cackling then telling me I didn't have to wait. I then flew up here asking what happened and your buddy interrupted you.

Scratch: Oh yeah, thanks!

Jade: Anytime, Larroid Fine-thousand.

*Cut to the front of the monitor*

Scratch: Why don't you take a look? BA HA HA HAAAA!

*The song wraps up. Zoom in on the monitor as until only what's on the now-distorted screen is seen the image of everyone gathered around Jade's unconcious body*

Dottie Sue: He ain't gonna be able to respond to ya right now.

Coconuts: *Looks up at Dottie Sue* Oh, and why's that?

Dottie Sue: 'Cause yer Sonic went an' hit the right note, knockin' him out! Ah reckon he'll come to in about an hour past this here sentence.

Coconuts: I'M NOT WAITING THAT LONG! *Starts jumping on Jade* NO! NO! NO, NO, NO!

Scratch: *Points his thumb to himself* WE'RE not waiting either! *Heads to the room to the left* So we'll just deal with Sonic, Tails and the REST of these big-eared losers first.

*Coconuts enters the room to the right while Grounder entered the one behind Dottie Sue. Everyone else looks down at Jade who's stopped twitching. His face has relaxed and his eyes are closed*

Jade Man: ...So...What do we do now?

I. Sonic: *Looks up at Jade Man* Weren't you paying attention? they want US to take them on while they're-

Dottie Sue: Boy, we want him to recover, so do us all a favor and don't finish THAT sentence!

I. Sonic: *Looks at Dottie Sue* Sorry, I normally say it like that when I taunt those dumbots...*Looks back at Jade*

Dottie Sue: Like ah said, it was probably that note coupled with that voice of yer's that did the trick.

I. Sonic: *Glares at Dottie Sue* What's wrong with these pipes of mine?

Dottie Sue: No disrespect, certain sounds just do different things to him.

Jugga: *Stands up* Well, we can't stall this any longer. We'll have to decide who goes after who.

Jade Man: *Cryfecta grabs him by the arm* HEY!

Cryfecta: DIBS ON THE NEW GUY AND THE MONKEY! *Dashes off*

Moonlight: *Rubs his chin* Hmm...That Grounder looked a lot like the one we encountered in the Prime Zone before the collapse.

Jugga: In that case, he should be equipped with various weapons. *Looks over to Moonlight* And since WE'RE the ones who took care of THAT Grounder, we should do the same here.

*Jugga and Moonlight leave for Grounder's area*

I. Sonic: Well, little bro, looks like THAT leaves us with Scratch!

I. Tails (Sarcastically): Tough break!

I. Sonic: Couldn't have said it better myself! *Grabs I. Tails at the arm* Let's burn, vern! *Speeds off to Scratch's door*

*Cut to a wide shot. Everyone except for Jade, Sticks and Dottie Sue has left*

Sticks (Annoyed): *Looks left to right* ...DID I JUST GET LEFT HOLDING THE BAG!?

*The screen distorts again. Cut back back to Jade and the monitor Jade now has a lowered right brow*

Jade: So what's the hold-up?

Scratch: BA HA HAAAA! See for yourself, you green dope! *Cut to Jade's persepective of the monitor. Through the following, the image on the screen changes to I. Sonic and I. Tails stuck on a rug, Cryfecta and Jade Man in a force field, Jugga and Moonlight in a square cage then back to him* We've captured your buddies by means of what's keeping your country bumpkin of a gal pal in her place!

Jade (Steamed): *Clenches his fists growling. He proceeds to shaking his fist during the following* WHAT!? BUMPKIN!? BU-BUMPKIN, WHAT!? WHAT...!? WHAT...!? BUMPKIN, WHAT!? *Gets ready to punch the screen*

Dottie Sue (Off-Screen): NOW you've done it, pard!

Scratch: *Jade's fist goes through the screen and hits him instead of shattering it* AHOW!

Jade: Thanks to THAT crack, YOU'RE my first target!

Scratch: *Shakes off the blow* Fine by me...*Pokes his head out of the monitor pressing it to Jade's face* COWBOY! *Retracts his head* BA HA HA HAAAA! BA HA HAAAA!

*The screen turns off as the monitor retracts. Cut to the door to Scratch's arena opening. Jade lands at the entrance*

Jade: Sticks, I need you to keep Dottie Sue company while I'm gone. This shouldn't take long. *Starts running down the hall* I'M CALLIN' YOU OUT, MAN! *The door closes behind him*

*Pan out to Sticks and Dottie Sue*

Sticks: ...*Looks up at Dottie Sue* Why's he calling him out if they already want to fight each other?

Dottie Sue: That's just his battle cry.

*Pan out further revealing this being seen on a monitor. Cut to the other Robotniks/Eggmen all sat around a table in what appears to be a board room L. Orbot and L. Cubot are floating between L. Eggman*

X. Eggman: Hmm...He's spirited, I'll give him that.

S. Robotnik: I've waited long enough to see this boy in action. *Rubs his hands together with a grin* We'll see if his reputation is true.

L. Orbot: Be careful what you wish for.

L. Cubot: Dern tootin', that rooster went an' provoked him worse than a polecat at a perfume convention. So iffen he learns of Pi's role in this rodeo now...

*Cut to a close up of L. Eggman's eyes*

L. Eggman: ...Then Heaven help us all...

*Fade out. Fade in to a clip montage of the next chapter to some action music*

Jade (Voice-Over): So, I make my way to the arena where that robo-rooster. Wait, what was that last part!? Is THAT so? Oh, NOW these jackasses have my attention!
