RAT-HOWL
Ugh... what
happened?
RAT-HOWL’S
P.O.V.
Everyone
was dark but metal belts and chains hanging from the ceiling and gears on the
walls could be made out.
VOICE
(O/S)
I’ve
blown up the floor you’ve stood in order to bring you here.
ANGLE ON
RAT-HOWL
RAT-HOWL
(Angry)
You did
what! Who are you? Came out and fight me!
VOICE
(O/S)
Very
well.
Out of
the shadows came Sleet with a huge grin on his face.
RAT-HOWL
Hmm, you
don’t look like a threat, who are you?
SLEET
Why
Rat-Howl, is that any way to say to your grandnephew?
RAT-HOWL
(Confused)
Uh,
my grandnephew?
SLEET
Indeed,
I’m the grandchild of you brother.
RAT-HOWL
So,
you’ve call me over for a family reunion, is that it?
SLEET
Not at
all, I’ve come to ask for the family treasure of yours.
RAT-HOWL
(Suspicious)
What
treasure?
SLEET
Why the
one that you ate in order to hide before you’ve died. Now being a robot, it’s
still in there and we can open you up and grabbed it now.
RAT-HOWL
Uh, well
you’re not going to get it!
SLEET
I suspect
as much, DINGO!
RAT-HOWL
Uh?
Rat-Howl
turns around and sees a huge blob or orange coming towards him.
RAT-HOWL
(COND’T)
What is
that thing?
Rat-Howl
leaped into the air and grabs onto on one of the chains and looks down below to
see the orange blob flatten on the ground.
SLEET
Dingo,
you’ve missed him!
Sleet
takes out his remote and points it at the orange blob turning it back to Dingo.
DINGO
Sorry
Sleet. He jumps really good, though.
RAT-HOWL
Thanks!
Everyone
looks into the ceiling as Rat-Howl leaps behind them and withdraws his sword.
RAT-HOWL
(COND’T)
But I
still won’t give you my treasure.
SLEET
Very well
then, Dingo!
DINGO
Yeah,
oh-oh!
Sleet
aims the remote at Dingo transforming him into a sword with eyes and a mouth on
the blade.
SLEET
Let’s
dual!
Sleet
lifts the Dingo-Sword and charges at Rat-Howl.
DINGO-SWORD
Sleet,
this is going to hurt! OWE!

EXT.
ABANDON NEIGHBOURHOOD
Sonic and
Swift sped around the deserted neighbourhood in flashes of blue. Swift reaches
out his claws and tries to slash Sonic, but he dodges in and tries to spin-dash
into Swift who jumps into the air and continues skating.
SONIC
You’re
pretty good.
SWIFT
You’re
not bad yourself.
They
continue to threw barrage or attacks and speed threw the streets.
SONIC
(Thinking)
He really
is fast! But it’s not really him, it’s those skates!
SONIC’S
P.O.V.
They both
come to a turn and Sonic begins to turn and looks to Swift whose skates are the
only thing that moves. Now swift’s body is facing Sonic and his feet are
pointing on the left side on his body.
ANGLE ON
SONIC
SONIC
(Thinking)
Is he
mocking me? He’s running sideways! Wait, he’s not running, skating! This might
be he’s weakness, just got to make sure.
Once
again, another turn came and Sonic grabbed onto a pole and perfectly turn and
he look at Swift whose now skating backwards and his feet pointing towards his
back. Sonic grinned as he places his foot in front of Swift’s feet.
SWIFT
You can
never defeat-WHOA!
Swift fell
to the ground and looks behind him to see Sonic
snickering.
SWIFT
(Angry)
Okay
buddy, you’re DEAD!
Swift got
back up and lifted his feet to them back forward and the jets came back on and
Swift zoom close to Sonic.
SONIC
(Thinking)
That’s
his weakness! He’s body can’t turn as fast as his feet; this may come to an
advantage!
CUT TO:
EXT.
ABANDONED BUILDING
Beak
flies in the air and attempts to tackle into Sonia, but the pink hedgehog
leaped out of the way and crashes into a telephone pole.
SONIA
Face it
man, you can’t beat a girl who’s a major in Kung Fu and Wushu. If you
surrender, I’ll let you go!
Beak got
up from the ground and his metallic eyes turned red.
BEAK
(Furious)
Lady, you
may be good with your foreign soup skills, but I’m an expert of fighting
combined with excellent technology, so take this!
Out of
Beak’s wings and chest were missiles and they all launch and aimed to Sonia.
She begins to dodges the first three as they explode to the ground and she performs
her spin twister to destroy the rest. Once the twister faded, Sonia stood on
the ground with her arms cross and a grin a very angry Beak.
SONIA
Takes
more than that to stop me!
Music
starts playing into the background as the four groups fight.
SONIA
(Singing)
So
much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Sleet
slashes the Dingo sword at Rat-Howl, who dodges the attack and kicks Sleet to
the ground.
SONIA

In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
Stab
tries to slash Aleena, but she grabs Stab arm and throws him across the roof,

jets higher to try to keep up.
SONIA

All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Sonia leaps into the air and tackles Beak to the ground. Beak begins pecking at
Sonia’s shoulder. Sonia showed no sing of pain or caring about it and rapidly punches
Beak in the chest.
SONIA (COND’T)
(Singing)
You've
got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the stuff that you do
Sleet and
Rat-Howl’s swords collide and Dingo begins in show some pain. Sleet knees

hit the floor instead.
SONIA
(COND’T)
(Singing)
You were
all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything that I wanted

All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Swift
tackles Sonic into a wall and Swift. Sonic gets back up and zoom behind Swift
and performs a spin dash and Swift trips to the ground and Sonic
gains the lead.
SONIA(COND’T)
(Singing)
It's nice
to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done
Sonia
leaps onto a mailbox and jumps of as Beak crashes into it. Sonia jumps into the
air and begin stomping on Beaks back. Beak rolls over and Sonia fell to the
ground and Beak land on top of Sonia aim one of his wings at her face, but

Stab
prepares to get up as Vixen appears from the sky and Stab show a please face,
but Aleena shows a face of horror. Stabs lets out his hand hoping that Vixen
will help him up, but Vixen kicks it away.

RAT-HOWL
Just give
it up!
Rat-Howl
looks down as Sleet struggles with getting up and tries to use the Dingo-Sword
as a crouch.
DINGO-SWORD
Sleet,
can you change me back now?
ANGLE ON
RAT-HOWL
RAT-HOWL
You guys
aren’t even worth anymore time.
Rat turns
around but a noise of machines moving made him turn back and his mouth hung
open.
ANGLE ON
SLEET
Sleet,
struggling to get up is not noticing a huge pillar of metal slowing going to
crush.
DINGO-SWORD
Sleet, do

DINGO-SWORD
Not that,

SLEET
What?
Sleet
turns around to see a huge pillar coming towards.’
DINGO-SWORD
(Worried)
Change me

SLEET
I’m
trying you dolt!
Sleet
begins pushing the remote but only static came out.
SLEET
& DINGO-SWORD
(UNISON)
AHHHHHH!
Both of
them close their eyes awaiting their deaths, but they heard a bang.
DINGO-SWORD
Sleet,
are we dead?
SLEET
No, you
dolt!
Sleet
opens his eyes and his mouth open wide.
SLEET’S
P.O.V.
Rat-Hole
stood in front of Sleet lifting the steel pillar. The pillar continues to fall
and Rat-Howl’s metal arms began to shatter.
RAT-HOWL
(Struggling)
I... wont be... able to hold... it forever!
Sleet
nodded and picked up Dingo and crawled out from the pillar’s way.
RAT-HOWL
WAIT!
Sleet
turns back to Rat-Howl and his chest popped open and a golden locket dropped to
the floor.
RAT-HOWL
You
wanted... my treasure... take care... of it.
SLEET
Very
well.
Sleet
reach out for the locket quickly ran away from the pillar.
SLEET
(COND’T)
(Confused)
But...
why?
RAT-HOWL
Hmmm, do
I need a reason? Just... take care... of it...
With
that, the huge pillar on Rat-Howl and metallic parts crush spread out of the
ground.
DINGO-SWORD
Wow
Sleet, you got the treasure! Let me see! Let me see!
Sleet
didn’t listen to Dingo; all he did was open up the locket.
ANGLE ON
LOCKET
A picture
of three wolves was on the top half. Two adults, one male and the other female,
and the other is a small male-child.
On the
bottom half is written saying, ‘my beloved family, my dear brother,
sister-in-law an nephew, I’ll never forget you all
SLEET
(Chuckling)
I went
through all that, just for a picture of my father and grandparents.
DINGO-SWORD
Uh?
SLEET
What a
waste of time!
Sleet
said as he placed the locket in his cape and walked off into the doorway.
DINGO-SWORD
Hey Sleet,
when do you think I’ll be able to change back to normal?

Sonic and
Swift continue speeding across the streets. Both colliding with each other and
racing neck-to-neck.
ANGLE ON
SONIC
SONIC
(THINKING)
Great, now’s
a perfect time!
SONIC
Hey
Swift, bet you can’t do this!
Sonic
spun around and continue racing by running backwards and Swift’s eyes turn red.
SWIFT
Oh yeah?
Swift
lifts up his right leg as his left continue skating and his right skates spun
backwards. He places his right foot down and continues with his left foot. Soon
he was skating backwards.
SWIFT
(COND’T)
You were
saying?
SONIC
How much
of an idiot you are?
SWIFT
(Angry)
What?!
Sonic
didn’t reply, he just turns back around and ran at
full speed forward and bust past Swift.
SWIFT
(COND’T)
I’ll show
you who’s an id-
ZOOM OUT
Swift
didn’t finish, because he crashed into a building and it began crumbling on top
of him.
Sonic
stand nearby and smirked.
SONIC
I knew if
he ran backwards, he couldn’t look where he was going. And if he did, he
wouldn’t have time to turn back around. Heh, heh, heh!
WIPE TO:
EXT.
ABANDONED BUILDING
Swift
flies in the air and Sonia stares at him from the ground gasping for air.
BEAK
(Malfunctioning)
Okay-kay-ay, dod-dodge th-this!
Out of
his chest came an energy cannon pointing downward at Sonia and yellow particles
began charging inside.
BEAK
(COND’T)
FIRE!
A yellow
ball of energy came firing straight at Sonia, who did nothing but stare at it,
but not of fear, but of courage.
SONIA
More like
you’ll need to do the dodging!
Sonia’s
medallion shine and her piano/gun appeared in her arms.
SONIA
(COND’T)
Take
this!
Sonia
fired out of the piano and a beam of energy, bigger than Beak’s energy ball
came colliding with each other.
BEAK
OH NO!
Beak
tried flying away, but he turned around to see Sonia’s beam following him with
his energy ball being towards him as well.
BEAK
(Shouting,
faint)
THIS
CAN’T BE HAPPENING!
Beak
cried as the beams of energy engulf him. When they faded, green metallic burned
parts fell from the sky and landed on the ground.
SONIA
That
takes care of him, just hope my brothers are okay.

Stab
stands face to face toward Vixen, both with dirty looks on each other’s robotic
face.
STAB
(Furious)
Vixen,

VIXEN
VIXEN

STAB
STAB
What?!
ZOOM OUT
VIXEN
I may
like to steal and kill the guys that get me mad, but we do it to innocent people.
We do it with no emotion at all, and I don’t want to be part of it. We were
giving a second chance in life Stab, why ruin it?
STAB
You... are
not... my GIRLFRIEND!
Stab
begins charging towards Vixen with his claws ready to strike, but a pole stops
him in the middle.
ZOOM OUT
Manic is
holding a pole and struggling to keep Stab away.
MANIC
(Struggling)
Vixen... told
me... everything... how you hurt my mom when she was a... child... how you are
hurting... my family right... now... and now you’re girl... friend!
STAB
(Furious)
SHE’S... NOT...
MY... GIRLFRIEND!
Stab
lifts his left claw preparing to strike at Manic.
STAB
BAHH!
Stab fell
to the ground and behind his is Sonic and Sonia holding their instruments in
their weapon mode with smoke coming out.
MANIC
(Happily)
SONIC!
SONIA!
SONIC
& SONIA
(HAPPILY)
MANIC!
All three
of the hedgehogs came running towards each other.
SONIA
Do you
know how worried you got us?
MANIC
Sorry
sis, I just wanted to feel like a place where I belong.
SONIC
But Manic, you belong with us... you family!
MANIC
Yeah,
that what Vixen told me.
SONIC
& SONIA
Vixen?
Both
hedgehogs turned around to see Vixen smiling at them but her smile soon faded
when she turned around.
VIXEN
I’m happy
for your reunion and all, but look who’s not!
ANGLE ON
STAB
Stab
begins to stand up and his body had begun to fall apart. His chest had blown a
few chips off and his right arm fell to the ground and his cape burned to
ashes.
STAB
Oh look, I
love killing when a family is together!
MANIC
Yeah,
well you won’t be killing any families today!
Manic’s
medallion glowed and his drums appeared and Manic rapidly pounded his
drumsticks. Soon an earthquake begins aiming straight towards Stab.
STAB
AHHHH!
Stab
yells as the earthquake shook him up and engulfs him in the ground. As soon as
the last metallic part was gone, Manic stop pounding on the drums and return it
to his necklace form.
SONIC
You did
it Manic!
MANIC
Yeah... I did.
VIXEN
Well,
guess it’ll be my time to leave!
EVERYONE
Uh?
ANGLE ON
VIXEN
VIXEN
Yeah,
being underground for over decades makes you want to explore life more.
SONIA
You’re
sure; we could really need your help in the battle against Robotnik.
VIXEN
I’m sure
you guys can beat him without me. But I will help if you guys needed. But for
now, time to explore the world! Oh, by the way, Manic?
MANIC
Uh...
yeah?
Manic
approaches Vixen, and she keeled down near his face
and kiss him on the cheeks making Manic blush a bit.
SONIC
Looks
like Manic got a way with the ladies!
SONIA
SONIC!
VIXEN
See you
guys around!
Vixen
smiled and walked down a path towards the moon and the three triplets watch.
