-[X] "Tick, tock, boom! We coming through!" you pause. "Hey, that kind of rhymes."
Should we specify that we're doing a Spin Attack on the group of bots in the middle, or is that something that the QM will just automatically do? Just asking because if we can nail all of em at once with a Spin Attack, there's a good chance we take em all out.

Johnny was rather proud of what he and Porker had made, it had taken a lot of effort and heavy lifting, but he could honestly say that the results were good.
They had made an obstacle course!
Ok so 'made' was a bit of an exaggeration, what they had done was grab or weld a bunch of junk together to make some random obstacles and placed them on an otherwise empty area of green hill zone.
They would make sure to clean it up by the time Sonic returned.
"Toryaa!!" 'thunk' "arghhh!"
Now if only the people using it were as good.
Johnny could feel his eye twitching as he witnessed Cody attempt to jump over a fence and instead ran headlong into it.
With a sigh he gestured to Alfred, who he had excepted from the exercise in exchange for helping bring the others to the first aid area (it was just some sleeping bags and a small first aid kit), said area already contained the unconscious bodies of Snap, Ander and Static.
The twitch got worse when he thought of what caused that .
Ander ran as fast as he could, jumping over the junk fences and ducking under the bags hanging from coat racks as he neared a tub full of water they were supposed to jump over, but before he could his foot caught on a rock, sending him face first into the water.
Ander rose coughing and spitting water, and right behind him, Snap likewise attempted the jump, however she didn't see Ander rising up, meaning she crashed into him, once more sending him under the water.
as they both untangled themselves, Static decided to try and perform a long jump over the tub, but...
'splash' 'ZAAAPPP!!' ------!!!!
Johnny and Porker decided to remove the tub after that, Porker had decided to leave as well, claiming he couldn't watch anymore.
And so it was just Johnny now, supervising the training session, and as he saw Coco trip and go rolling downhill, Alfred running after her, as Patia, Charlotte and Karlos attempt to scale a wall of junk he thought.
Well, at least they're trying.
AN: I think this might be my shortest omake, just thought Id be fun to see the Freedom Fighters attempts to get better at traversing the Zones
[X] Perhaps you want to take some time off to heal?
-[X] No. Go right on to the next Action.
[X] Simple deal: go clockwise beating the Badniks, then take the shield for yourself as Blaze already has one. Then, once all on the sides is cleared, move to the middle to beat the machines there and pass the middle passage.
[X] "That's one on hand, six more on the way," you quip. "Seems they also recognize their guardian."

What you both see is a large square area, filled to the brim with Badniks. Rings at small pathways on each sideway, with the small path furthest from where you are holding a Blue Shield. And in the middle... A Giant Ring, a hatch underneath with an x on it signalling that you'll be going to next area after this, but it's surrounding by four different Badniks, that being 2 Bees and 2 Crocodiles.
"Let's go around, it would be safer than alerting all the Badniks here at once." Blaze suggests.
You survey the best way to go about that as you get a good look around. "Yeah that could work, if it goes well I could even snatch up that Shield box over there before we crush the Badniks in the middle. Maybe you can get them from a distance with your fire?"
"No." She looks at her hand. "I'd rather conserve my energy for later for when we have to face a greater match, unlike my Axel I can't keep throwing my flame around forever."
Right, that move. It's similar to your own Jump Dash, though more... Flamey. Given how separated each Badnik looks to be here, you likely won't be making much use of your Spin Attack, so no speeding through this place with how your Jump Dash causing you to stop... Wait. "Did you not use your Axel jump during our race?"
Her ears stand up as she tries to hold in the startle that caused her. Yet despite that, she just as quickly folds her arms as she gazes on ahead at the area. "And why would that matter Sonic?"
You shrug with a smirk on your face and eyes closed, humming to yourself. "What can I say? Seems like that race was more important than conserving your energy."
Hearing a click, you open your eyes to see a flame form within Blaze's hand. "If you wish to continue, be my guest."
You hold your hands up in surrender. "Okay! Okay!" You turn to face the field of Badniks with view, ready to start running.
Initiative to establish the turn order between Sonic and Blaze, as they both have the same Base Speed and Dexterity.
Your initiative #3d6 = (1+1+6) 8.
Blaze's initiative #3d6 = (5+4+5) 14.
Sonic's turn is first, followed by Blaze.
Sonic runs 10 yards to the right.
Blaze runs 10 yards towards the Snake.
Blaze jumps at them with an Axel Jump Dash #3d6 = (3+5+6) 14. Hit!
Snake tries to sliver away #3d6 = (4+4+5) 13. Fails to dodge!
Roll for damage for Snake #1d6+1 = (6+1) 7 Damage.
Snake: -5/2HP. Snake explodes!
1/6 Flickies.
"I'll go after the Snake closest! You go after the Hunter to our left and crush them!"
"Sure thing!"
You both run, as you watch Blaze proceed to form into a tornado of fire with grace and crush the Snake-Bot in her path! You whistle at the sight, wishing your own attacks had that kind of flare to them. "That's one on hand, six more on the way." The Flicky popping out of the machine immediately following Blaze "Seems they also recognize their guardian."
You honestly wonder how much awareness an animal has inside one of those things.
1 Crock and 1 Bee from the middle are in range to hear that explosion.
Crock needs to roll an 8 or below to hear it #3d6 = (1+1+2) 4. Critical Success! Perhaps Eggman accidentally left some spare hearing tech in it?
Bee needs to roll an 8 or below to hear it #3d6 = (6+2+1) 9. Failure!
Crock moves 5/10 yards yards towards Blaze.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 activates for you!
Sonic moves 10 yards towards the top Hunter.
Sonic decides to take this safe and go for a Jump Dash at the Hunter, speed isn't need much here nor are there multiple enemies to hit at once #3d6 = (2+2+2) 6. Hit!
Hunter is unable to dodge!
Roll for damage for Hunter #1d6 = 6*1.5 = 9 Damage.
Hunter: -7/2HP. Hunter explodes!
2/6 Flickies.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 deactivates for you!
As you rush to crush the unique-looking Badnik that protects the small pathway of rings, it seems that one of the Crocodile-Bots has managed to notice the ruckus Blaze made with the Snake.
You're sure she can handle it, at the very least it was only one out of the four in the middle that's now coming after her.
As for you... You finally meet your target. You jump in the air, and with a dash you slash against the Badnik with your quills, freeing the Flicky from within. "All these rings, just for me? Oh you shouldn't have!"
Blaze decides to move 10 yards to be next to Sonic, wanting to further lure the Crock away from the middle so that they don't hear it get destroyed.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 activates for Blaze!
Crock moves 10/15 yards towards Blaze, to which her running has caused the target number to increase, the Crock is also now out of hearing range of the middle Badniks.
Sonic moves up 10 yards, collecting 2 ring boxes that have 10 rings each in them.
You have obtained 20 rings! Sonic now has 20 rings!
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 activates for you!
Blaze moves 5 yards to the Crock.
Blaze uses an Axel Jump Dash to hit the Crock #3d6 = (2+3+2) 7. Hit!
Crock tries to run away from the flaming tornado of a Mobian #3d6 = (5+1+3) 9. Fails to dodge!
Roll for damage for Crock #1d6+1 = (2+1) 3 Damage.
Crock: -1/2HP. Crock explodes!
3/6 Flickies.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 deactivates for Blaze!
You spin yourself against the ground as you crash through the ring boxes here, getting a nice even 20 rings as you hear the familiar twirl of flame and an explosion from out in the field. "Already got him, eh'?"
Sonic runs out of the small upper path filled with rings and onto the Hunter to the right, running 20.50/30 yards to them.
Blaze runs 10.25/20 yards to the Hunter to the right.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 activates for Blaze!
Speed takes hold as you run out to the next side that has rings to collect, running by Blaze on the way. "Does your world also have a protector for the Chaos Emeralds?"
Not expecting such a sudden question in the middle of you two running towards this next Badnik, she stumbles for what to say. "What?"
Sonic runs 30/30 yards to the Hunter.
You use a Jump Dash on the Hunter #3d6 = (1+2+5) 8. Hit!
Hunter is unable to dodge!
Roll for damage for Hunter #1d6 = 4*1.5 = 6 Damage.
Hunter: -4/2HP. Hunter explodes!
4/6 Flickies.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 deactivates for you!
Bottom right Snake and the Badniks in the middle are just barely out of range to hear.
"I mean, it would be-"
You dash through the air, crushing the Badnik underneath your heel.
"-pretty irresponsible for their part to leave them on a random island, but who am I to judge what other people do?"
Blaze runs 20/20 yards towards the bottom right Snake.
Blaze uses an Axel Jump Dash against the Snake, not caring if any in the middle of this place hear as Blaze has assessed that they won't be able to move fast enough to reach her on their turn #3d6 = (1+1+3) 5. Hit!
Snake tries to sliver away #3d6 = (3+6+1) 10. Fails to dodge!
Roll for damage for Snake #1d6+1 = (2+1) 3 Damage.
Snake: -1/2HP. Snake explodes!
5/6 Flickies.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 deactivates for Blaze!
She takes some time to think over your question. "If your Chaos Emeralds ever had a protector, they're likely long dead." She says whilst swiftly rushing over to burn down a Snake within range, spinning on an axel as she does so. "Or wished for them to never be found and deserted them to a place where that can be done so."
"Fat load that did against Eggman."
1 Crock and 1 Bee from the middle are in range to hear that explosion.
Crock needs to roll an 8 or below to hear it #3d6 = (6+6+6) 18. Critical Failure! Oh, so that's where the spare hearing tech came from.
Bee needs to roll an 8 or below to hear it #3d6 (5+2+6) 13. Failure!
You take a quick look towards the middle, glad to see none of them responding to the explosion caused by her finishing that Snake.
"By the way, you seem scared by that Special Stage. What was that about? It looked like you saw an actual ghost." You pry.
Blaze rolls +3 Acting as she lies blatently to your face about that, must roll a 13 or below #3d6 = (4+4+5) 13. Success by 0!
She stiffens up. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
You roll Detect Lies, which you do not have and thus must roll at -6 Perception, but also gains a +3 due to you having the Empathy Advantage, must roll a 7 or below #3d6 = (3+1+2) 6. Success by 1!
If she's willing to blatantly lie about this despite you seeing what happened first hand, then it's probably not best to talk about it in the middle of you two doing all of this.
Even if you don't exactly get what the point of doing that would be. Instead, you just sigh as you head into the path to collect the rings behind the Badnik you crushed before.
Sonic moves right 10 yards, collecting 2 ring boxes that have 10 rings each in them.
You have obtained 20 rings! Sonic now has 40 rings!
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 activates for you!
Blaze moves 10/10 yards towards the bottom Hunter guarding the Blue Shield.
Blaze uses an Axel Jump Dash against the Hunter #3d6 = (2+6+2) 10. Hit!
Hunter is unable to dodge!
Roll for damage for Hunter #1d6+1 = (2+1) 3 Damage.
Hunter: -1/2HP. Hunter explodes!
6/6 Flickies.
Whilst you do so, Blaze takes her own chance to destroy the Badnik at the next side, opening up the small pathway that hides the box for the Blue Shield.
Sonic moves 10 yards outside of the right path, and then 10.50/20 yards towards Blaze whilst she's at the bottom near the Blue Shield.
"Thanks Blaze, this should be good for the Badniks in the middle of here!" You say as you rush down to her.
"Stop." She says suddenly, which you do. "After you get the Shield, head over to the Bee on the right and wait whilst I vanquish the robot on the last side. And then wait for my signal for us to both attack the Bees from two sides."
You look over at the middle. "I think I get what you're going for, get rid of both the flying enemies at once, and then the Crocodile there will have no chance to attack us in the air right? Smart plan!"
"No need for compliments."
Ha, you can tell she appreciated that. "Whatever you say!"
Blaze moves 10.25/20 yards towards the left Hunter.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 activates for Blaze!
Sonic moves 20/20 yards towards the Blue Shield, hitting it and then moving 11/20 yards to be at the right of Bee there, just enough to be in range to run and attack it, but not enough for it to notice you there.
Blue Shield - They protect you from 1 single hit and then disappear. They last for the duration of the Day.
Blaze moves 20/20 yards towards the left Hunter.
Blaze uses an Axel Jump Dash against the left Hunter #3d6 = (6+1+2) = 9. Hit!
Hunter is unable to dodge!
Roll for damage for Hunter #1d6+1 = (1+1) 2 Damage.
Hunter: 0/2HP. Hunter explodes!
7/6 Flickies.
Enhanced Move (Ground) 1 deactivates for Blaze!
Sonic waits and stays still.
You crash into the box holding the Blue Shield, seeing it quickly form around yourself. "Sweet."
And just as quickly you run towards the spot you need to be, watching from a distance as Blaze destroys the last of those unique Badniks within this area... Hm, they can't be crabs, Egghead already did those before and they look nothing alike. Maybe a shell? But shells on snails don't spiral that way.
You tap your foot as those thoughts enter your mind, waiting for Blaze to get ready to begin her plan with you.
Blaze runs 10/20 yards to the Bee at the other side of the middle pack, mirroring you and also ignoring the rings on the left side for you to collect later.
Blaze yells for the attack to commence.
Sonic runs 10/10 yards to the Bee on the right.
You use a Jump Dash against the Bee on the right side #3d6 = (2+6+5) 13. Hit!
The right Bee tries to fly away #3d6 = (3+3+4) 10. Fails to dodge! You bounce up in the air!
Roll for damage for right Bee #1d6 = 2*1.5 = 3 Damage.
Bee: -1/2HP. Bee explodes!
8/6 Flickies.
Blaze runs 10/10 yards to the Bee on the left.
Blaze uses an Axel Jump Dash against the Bee on the left side #3d6 = (3+4+4) 11. Hit!
The left Bee tries to fly away #3d6 = (3+4+3) 10. Fails to dodge! Blaze bounces up in the air!
Roll for damage for left Bee #1d6+1 = (5+1) 6 Damage.
Bee: -4/2HP. Bee explodes!
9/6 Flickies.
As soon as she arrives she shouts! "Go and reduce them to nothing!"
With that, you both at once jump up and dash at your flying opponents, both spinning in your own ways as the two Bees hurtle and crash into the ground, releasing the Flickies inside! Bouncing off of the hits made on them as you both spin in the air above the Croco-Bot.
Crock is unable to do anything on their turn due to you and Blaze being up in the air!
Hunter chooses who to run towards, 1 for Sonic, 2 for Blaze #1d2 = 1. Sonic!
Crock decides to move 5/5 yards closer to Sonic.
You use a Jump Dash against the Crock #3d6 = (2+3+4) 9. Hit!
Crock tries to run out of the way #3d6 = (1+3+3) 7. Dodges! You are now on the ground!
"Tick, tock, boom! We coming through!" you dash downwards into the Badnik below you, as it uselessly tries to bite at you from below. You feel it, you have this in the bag!
And then, at the last second it dodges your attack as you crash into the ground!
Blaze runs 10/10 yards towards the Crock in front of Sonic.
Blaze uses an Axel Jump Dash against the Crock #3d6 = (5+6+4) 15. Hit!
Crock tries to run out of the way #3d6 = (4+4+5) = 13. Fails to dodge!
Roll for damage for Crock 1d6+1 = (5+1) 6 Damage.
Crock: -4/2HP. Crock explodes!
10/6 Flickies.
Blaze takes no chances as lands on the ground, running right towards the Crocodile and twirling her way into it! Sending it flying as it lands on its back and explodes, releasing the last Flicky that could be in this area.
"...Tick, tock, boom?" She arches an eyebrow up.
"Hey, it kind of rhymes." You say nonchalantly, happy that all of the Badniks here have been disposed of.
"What!? That doesn't rhyme at all!"
"Of course it does. Tick and tock both end with a K."
"First off, ick and ock are two entirely different sounds, second where'd the boom come from?"
"Well I can't just say only tick, tock. Or else that'd sound dumb."
"That-That's not how that works at all!"
Sonic runs to collect the 2 ring boxes holding 10 rings each as Blaze waits.
You leave towards the rings left behind at the side you didn't go on to collect, leaving her in the middle of your conversation.
"You can't just leave in the middle of this! Have you no dignity at all?" You barely hear that last bit as you leave her behind.
You have obtained 20 rings! Sonic now has 60 rings!
Sonic runs back to Blaze and the Giant Ring in the middle of this place.
"What was that about dignity? Didn't quite hear ya." You say as soon as you make it back after collecting that last batch of rings.
"...Nothing." She says, scratching her head in confusion at your demeanour. "But otherwise, it is fine to be celebrate the progress we have made today." She says as she takes a look at both the Giant Ring that's before her eyes, and the 10 Flickies flying around you two. "Let's continue on, shall we?"
You nod in response, happy you managed to get under her skin. It's one way of getting her to show more of herself rather than how she normally seems to be with her cold behaviour.
With nothing much else to say, you both and all 10 Flickies hop right into the ring, ready for the challenge to collect yet another Sol Emerald...
You, Blaze and 10/6 Flickies go through the Giant Ring, causing them to go somewhere else as you and Blaze are transported to a different area of the island!
Extra Flickies: 12.
Rings gotten throughout the stage for you #1d50+60 = (47+60) 107 rings!
Rings gotten throughout the stage for Blaze #1d50 = 18 rings!
107/50 Rings, parameters met! Special Stage-
Blocked! As Anti-Sonic has already gotten a Sol Emerald on this Act, a Special Stage can't appear here!
Rusty Ruin Zone: Act 2 cleared!
You have obtained 77 rings!
Blaze has obtained 18 rings!
—
Yet, that challenge never came, as you and Blaze stand confused in a new part of this Zone rather than being in that place.
"That's peculiar. I swore you would have had enough for us to get there this time." Blaze says.
You're pretty confused too. "Right? I had like, over a hundred rings this time I swear!"
She sighs at that. "Nothing we can do about it." She puts her arms around her hips, surveying the area. "We do seem to be in a safe place though for now, and the area over yonder seems pretty spacious yet barren."
"Yeah... If it's anything like the last Zone, that feels like the prelude to a fight."
She takes that as her chance to put her back against a marble wall, looking up at the sky above as the sun seems to have gone well past nearing evening given how low it is. "Then let's take this chance to rest until next morning."
In response, you give a thumbs up to her. "I'd say we did a pretty good job!"
[ ] Night falls and stars fill the sky as Blaze looks up above, in a place so far away from her home her mind is filled with worries.
[ ] Don't social anyone, just continue onto the Stage immediately.

TIME LIMIT BEFORE CATASTROPHE STRIKES: 26 DAYS AS OF THE NEXT ACTION.
Rusty Ruin Zone: Act 3 (Yet another large open area) 0/0 Flickies obtained.
Anti-Sonic has finished his preparations for this Act against Eggman, his next Action will be to go into Act 3... Will you and Blaze go in as well, or will you two wait it out?
[ ] Perhaps you want to take some time off to heal?
-[ ] No. Go right on to the next Action.
-[ ] Yes. I'll take (x) amount of Actions to heal. Due to being between Acts, you heal 25% health here per Action!
[ ] Go in with Blaze. You'll see first-hand what will await you both.
[ ] Write-in. Got anything to say to Blaze and your potential opponent as you both head in?
It occurs to me that opening up about our problems with water could help Blaze open up about heights (improbable) and perhaps more usefully (and realistically) head off a potential future problem at the pass.

-[X] "So what do you do for fun when you're not doing guardian stuff? I personally love to go on runs, find new places, see the sights, though I also found that I enjoy simply seeing what people are doing, there's a lot I still don't know, so I'm always finding out something new"
-[X] "Faker? This is how far you've gotten? Man you're slow, we even took time to rest!"
-[X] "hey Faker, did you know Eggman already built a robot version of me? Yeah, you're the second copy, and the robo one is still better at keeping up with me than you are!"

-[X] "Listen, this is nothing to be ashamed about! I dislike water with a passion If you want to know. Like, plow the inside a deep lake and this hog is cooked."
-[X] "All I'm saying is that I'm here to lend a ear If you need."
[X] "Too quiet. Something is up."
[X] "And one of my least favorite people appears."
-[X] Anti-Sonic: "And you show your ugly mug again, eh?" Your eyes narrow. "Ready to get beat to a pulp again?"
-[X] Eggman: "Blaze, egghead. Egghead, Blaze. Hes that guy I was speaking off. See how much he looks like a egg? Shame its rotten to the core."
Well, that's just not cool. You guys think we can jump Anti for his one Sol Emerald? Before he somehow babbles about it to Eggman while trying to brag or something.

Yeah I agree with that one.
When we encounter anti Sonic again, we should definitely try our best to take the sol emerald away from him.
But we would have to find a way for us to know that he even has it in the first place.
Maybe we should ask if he potentially found something since our last encounter?

Maybe we should ask if he potentially found something since our last encounter?
[X] Night falls and stars fill the sky as Blaze looks up above, in a place so far away from her home her mind is filled with worries.
[X] Perhaps you want to take some time off to heal?
-[X] No. Go right on to the next Action.
[X] Go in with Blaze. You'll see first-hand what will await you both.
[X] "Hey, Im taking a wild guess and say you dont like heights. Either that or weavy dream worlds but that sounds too specific so..."
-[X] "Listen, this is nothing to be ashamed about! I dislike water with a passion If you want to know. Like, plow the inside a deep lake and this hog is cooked."
-[X] "All I'm saying is that I'm here to lend a ear If you need."
[X] "Too quiet. Something is up."
[X] "And one of my least favorite people appears."
-[X] Anti-Sonic: "And you show your ugly mug again, eh?" Your eyes narrow. "Ready to get beat to a pulp again?"
-[X] Eggman: "Blaze, egghead. Egghead, Blaze. Hes that guy I was speaking off. See how much he looks like a egg? Shame its rotten to the core."

[X] "So, you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to, but I could tell that something freaked you out back there, there's no need to be ashamed you know? Everyone has something they're afraid of, I for example hate water"
-[X] "So what do you do for fun when you're not doing guardian stuff? I personally love to go on runs, find new places, see the sights, though I also found that I enjoy simply seeing what people are doing, there's a lot I still don't know, so I'm always finding out something new"
-[X] "Faker? This is how far you've gotten? Man you're slow, we even took time to rest!"
-[X] "hey Faker, did you know Eggman already built a robot version of me? Yeah, you're the second copy, and the robo one is still better at keeping up with me than you are!"
-[X] if Silver Sonic is there "Faker, meet metal Faker, metal Faker meet slower Faker, there now that you've been introduced, let's see who's the best Sonic!"
-[X] "look Blaze! A talking Egg! The wonders of this island never cease"
-[X] "Blaze meet Eggman, Eggman this is Blaze, she's gonna help me kick your butt even faster than the last time we fought"
The breaker to tie all ties…or the tie to break all…breakers? Whatever. Here's my sleep deprived tie-breaker vote. Looking forward to the next update.

Day turns to night as twinkling stars fill the dark sky, your 5th day on this Island nearing its end. With your back against the floor and eyes closed your mind drifts to another set of Islands, wondering how your friends and comrades are doing in your absence. With your presence here, you doubt Eggman will be able to focus much on them with how he'll be busy with you.
Johnny should be fine, he's got that kind of air around him that wouldn't let anything happen to the Freedom Fighters on his watch. Unlike you...
Of all things you could've done, sending a complete newbie like Whiz out on his own to Victory Bridge? Your teeth grind at the memory.
Will you keep piling up mistakes like this as you continue forward? Or is it something you should just accept as the natural danger of being a Freedom Fighter? You feel like you've only just arrived at the starting line of a race, not knowing where the end will be, or even if there is an end to begin with.
"...Sonic."
You yawn and open your eyes to Blaze's thought, taking a look as she's still standing against a wall and stuck in her own thoughts. Looking up at the sky with her own transfixed gaze. "Yeah?"
"There will come a natural endpoint to all of this, when we succeed."
"When? Glad to see nothing about this place is breaking your promise."
"If I didn't know your prodding nature, I'd take that as an insult. If I were to go against my oaths just because a little bit of challenge came my way, then I'd no longer be myself." She lights a small ember on her index finger, staring at it. "But once we succeed... What shall we do after?"
...after? "What do you mean? You'd leave to your dimension and..."
And...
"Exactly." She says with resolution in her voice. "Beyond the safety of our worlds, there's still much that'd need to be done. Firstly, you have individuals from this dimension that have gone through the island we're standing on and ended up in my dimension. Which leads us to our second problem, by the time we're finished with this Island I'm likely to have been gone from my Empire for weeks, I can only imagine the unrest that's occurring at this moment right now. Once they hear my tale, the various communities will be scrambling from the knowledge that other dimensions truly exist."
"You're thinking of telling them about that?"
"What can I say to appease their worries and questions? The Imperial Princess of the Sol Empire, disappearing in the middle of a festival meant to signify the day the empire was born? I can only hope they did not spread my disappearance to the local populace and have kept it within the higher circles, but either way I will need to tell the higher individuals of my empire what happened. Would you not tell your own Freedom Fighters of what's occurred here?"
You would. You don't even doubt that, you've even had your own thoughts on the shocked looks on their faces.
She takes the look on your face as a yes. "And so that puts us back to the original question... What do we do? This tyrant of yours does not look like an individual that will be forever beaten after freeing this Island from their clutches, he no doubt has plans of his own for my dimension. In the best case scenario, on the assumption that I manage to get the ring on my Dimension's Sonic, and that we obtain a permanent means of travel between our worlds... What ideas do we have for that scenario? O-Of course if we don't lose that very same method of getting between worlds, who knows if Robotnik has put some form of failsafe on the device." She stumbles on her words at the end there.
[x] "Hm. Evil Me has that ring to teleport around, but he couldn't control it, which led to teleporting us to your palace. One of us could take it to see if someone can replicate it - maybe even the Eggman of your world, if he keeps not being an evil assface. Even then, I think we can move around Flickies Island and find a place where it's possible to teleport to your world...though this runs in the issue of you finding a similar place to Flickies in your home."
-[x] "And saying to everyone...look, I'm not an expert in civilized things, but even I can tell that dimension-hopping is a bit more than a tall tale. We can prove it, but...yeah, it's going to take a while. I'm thinking of first revealing this to some friends of mine in the Freedom Fighters then gradually expanding as time goes on. You...well, I can't really tell what you should do, but I feel a similar thing would do good to start."
-[x] "As for people...it runs in the issue that we need to find a consistent way to hop around worlds. Again, finding a similar place to Flickies in your world is a start, but there are a lot of things that still boggle my mind in this place."
-[x] "And as for that last part...well, it's simple. We deal each with our own messes, but if it starts bugging the other? It's free game."
-[x] You put the hands behind the head. "Don't let that stop you from visiting, though, the hills in my home island are cool and have some fun loops to run through."
[X] "We'll deal with these issue's as they arrive, one step at a time. There ain't no use worrying for what if's and what comes next, being prepared isn't wrong. But sometimes you gotta just accept good and bad will come your way. It's part of life."
