Ship of Doom/Transcript

This is the transcript of the Sonic X episode, "Ship of Doom".


 * Narrator: Last time on Sonic X, Chris had a strange dream, and was shocked when a familiar figure emerged from the shadows of his past. On Dr. Eggman's ship, Rouge made a grab for the Chaos Emerald, but got caught red-handed. To her surprise, she learned that Dr. Eggman had an even more valuable treasure locked away in a capsule. Meanwhile, the Blue Typhoon landed on a barren and mysterious planet. As Sonic and friends explored the ruins of a long-lost alien race, they were ambushed by the Metarex. To our heroes' horror, their trip turned into a nightmarish battle for survival. Not even the firepower of the Blue Typhoon could overcome this fantastic foe. Just when all appeared lost, Sonic and company got a blast from the past as Shadow the Hedgehog suddenly came to their rescue. Before they could thank him however, he snatched up their Chaos Emeralds and vanished. Now the crew of the Blue Typhoon are struggling to understand the shocking encounter with Shadow. Where will Shadow show up next? Has he returned to fight beside Sonic, or against him? Find out next on Sonic X!

[Scene: Space.]
 * [Several asteroid-shaped spaceships are flying through space.]
 * Pilot: The Metarex are attacking! We must do whatever it takes to protect the base!
 * [Suddenly, some of the ships are destroyed as a giant spacefaring Metarex emerges from hyperspace. This is the Scarship.]
 * Pilot: Aahh! It's Scarship!
 * [The Scarship fires laser cannons that destroys one of the ships.]
 * Pilot: Do not retreat! Keep firing!
 * [All of the ships open fire on the Scarship. No damage is done. Scarship continues to pick off some of the ships.]
 * Pilot: Attention all ships. Fire laser cannons now.
 * [Not even simultaneous laser fire can damage the Scarship. The Scarship opens fire with all it has, destroying most of the asteroid ships.]
 * Pilot: All ships retreat!
 * [Just as the last few ships turn back, they are destroyed.]
 * Scarship: Only a coward would flee from combat.
 * [Dark Oak contacts the Scarship.]
 * Dark Oak: [Over transmitter] This is Dark Oak calling Scarship.
 * Scarship: [On transmitter] Scarship here.
 * [The camera cuts to Dark Oak.]
 * Dark Oak: [On Transmitter] You have a new mission. Sonic the Hedgehog and Dr. Eggman keep throwing our plans into disarray. Find them and destroy them.
 * [The camera cuts to Scarship.]
 * Scarship: [On transmitter] Acknowledged.
 * [The Scarship moves on to its next task.]
 * Scarship: So... one ship escaped.
 * [It spots an asteroid ship that is trying to escape.]
 * Scarship: But not for long!
 * [He fires a rocket. It destroys the ship.]

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * [Cosmo is sleeping. Suddenly she awakens after dreaming about Shadow. She sweat-drops Cream approaches.]
 * Cream: Cosmo, are you OK?
 * Cosmo: Sorry, Cream. I was dreaming.
 * Cream: Is it about Shadow?
 * Cosmo: It was.
 * [They turn to the others. Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Chris have their eyes closed, doing nothing, as if in deep thought.]
 * Cream: Sonic and the others have been thinking about him ever since he reappeared.
 * Cosmo: Why is Shadow the Hedgehog so important to you anyway?
 * Cream: Well...
 * [Flashback to Eggman waking Shadow.]
 * Cream: They met him when we were on Chris' planet. You see, when Dr. Eggman had found out that his grandfather had created the ultimate creature...
 * [Flashback to Shadow fighting Sonic.]
 * Cream: ...he broke into a government lab and woke Shadow up from suspended animation. Shadow worked with Dr. Eggman to threaten Chris' planet, and he fought Sonic!
 * [Flashback to Super Sonic and Super Shadow.]
 * Cream: But later, Shadow joined up with Sonic and sacrificed himself to save everybody. We all thought he was lost forever.
 * [The flashbacks end.]
 * Cosmo: But we just saw him, so he must have survived.
 * Cream: Yes.
 * Tails: [To himself] It's not possible. There's no way Shadow could have made it through that battle.
 * [Shadow is seen standing on top of the spire.]
 * Chris: [To himself] I thought I was imagining it at first, but we all saw Shadow! How did he survive?
 * Knuckles: [To himself] He didn't say anything. Why was he acting so mysterious? There was always something weird about him.
 * Amy: [To herself] How do we know it isn't a trick? Maybe Eggman's trying to fool us.
 * Sonic: Why are we wastin' the day asking ourselves questions that we can't possibly answer? Next time he turns up, we'll just ask him what's goin' on!
 * [But Cream and Cosmo just stare at him, while the others continue their deep thought.]
 * Sonic: What'd I say?

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * [Shadow stares outside into space, thinking about what had transpired earlier.]
 * Chris: [Flashback] Is that Shadow?
 * Shadow: I don't understand how those strangers knew my name? They acted like they met me somewhere before. But when? And where?
 * [Decoe quickly slides his chair next to Shadow.]
 * Decoe: "When" is easy. It was when you were back in that other world.
 * [Bocoe also slides his chair next to Shadow.]
 * Bocoe: As for "where", it was on Space Colony ARK. You sure have a terrible memory.
 * [Eggman steps behind Shadow.]
 * Dr. Eggman: It might be better for Shadow if his past stays forgotten.
 * Shadow: 	What's that supposed to mean?
 * Dr. Eggman: Nothing.
 * Shadow: You're hiding something.
 * Dr. Eggman: Are you suggesting that I would try to deceive you? Why, I've never been so insulted in my entire life!
 * [He makes waving motions.]
 * Dr. Eggman: Then I won't tell you anything!
 * [Rouge is sitting in Eggman's command chair.]
 * Rouge: Dr. Eggman needs to to go back to bad guy school to brush up on his lying techniques.
 * [Rouge sees something glowing on the radar. Before she knows it, the Scarship warps in in front of the Crimson Egg.]
 * Scarship: Warp complete. Primary target identified. Launching attack now.
 * [The Scarship starts blasting the Crimson Egg with some of its weaker weapons.]
 * Dr. Eggman: Who's that attacking us?!
 * Bokkun: It's a ship I've never seen before! It came out of nowhere!
 * [As the ship stops shaking, Eggman sees the culprit.]
 * Dr. Eggman: A Metarex!
 * [The Scarship opens fire again.]
 * Dr. Eggman: Shields up!
 * [A shield is projected across the entire ship as the Scarship's lasers impact it. Even so, the ship still shakes.]
 * Decoe: Its laser cannons are too powerful!
 * Bocoe: Our shields will not hold up for long!
 * Dr. Eggman: Go get it, Shadow! Destroy that ship and I'll tell you all about your past.

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [As the Scarship continues to bombard the Crimson Egg, Shadow appears at the top of Eggman's ship, and leaps towards the Scarship.]
 * Scarship: They're launching a counter-attack How pitiful.
 * [Shadow executes a spin, deflecting the Scarship's lasers.]
 * Scarship: Not bad.
 * [Shadow impacts the Scarship, but no damage is done and the hedgehog bounce off.]
 * Scarship: But it is useless.
 * Shadow: You think so?
 * [He spins all across the side of the Scarship, looking for a weak point.]
 * Scarship: You cannot harm me!

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Dr. Eggman: Well done, Shadow!
 * Decoe: What kind of attack is that?
 * Bocoe: I have no clue.
 * [Eggman slams buckets down on them.]
 * Dr. Eggman: Allow me to demonstrate!
 * [He hammers the buckets, causing the two bots to fall over.]
 * Dr. Eggman: As you can see, a series of rapid strikes on the ship's hull will create an intense vibration, which will shake the ship apart from the inside.

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [Shadow continues to bounce all across the Scarship. Shadow summons a great amount of power, and slams into the bow of the Scarship, knocking it back. The Scarship's eyes glimmer, and Shadow is revealed to have fainted.]
 * Dr. Eggman: Gaah! Shadow can't fight anymore because he used up all his power!
 * Rouge: He needs a jump-start
 * [Eggman types on a keypad.]
 * Dr. Eggman: I'm going to have to bring him back!
 * [Meanwhile, a claw extends out of the Crimson Egg and retrieves Shadow.]
 * Scarship: Your silly games are over.
 * [The Scarship fires a swarm of missiles at the Crimson Egg.]

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg]
 * Bokkun: Now what are we gonna do?!
 * Dr. Eggman: Fire lasers now!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [One by one, the Crimson Egg's lasers target the missiles. However, no damage is done to the missiles.]
 * Bokkun: Oh no! Our lasers are destroyed!

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Dr. Eggman: Launch all missiles immediately! Target that Metarex!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [Both the Crimson Egg and the Scarship give it all they have, the former taking more damage than the latter. Rouge leaves the Crimson Egg.]
 * Rouge: Time to ship out. Bye!

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * [The Crimson Egg has taken heavy damage.]
 * Dr. Eggman: Gaaahh! Hurry up and get us out of here!
 * Decoe: [While typing] I am trying!
 * Bocoe: [While typing] The engines have overheated, and they are not working!
 * Bokkun: A missile's coming! Our shields can't stop it!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [The torpedo completely destroys the Crimson Egg.]
 * Scarship: Now I will exterminate the hedgehog!

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Tails: What?! A Metarex attacked Eggman?
 * [Rouge is on the video screen.]
 * Rouge: [Over video] He didn't stand a chance. Take a look.
 * [She switches the view to the explosion that destroyed the Crimson Egg. Cosmo panics when she sees the Scarship.]
 * Sonic: What's wrong?
 * Cosmo: I know that ship! That Metarex attacked me and my clan!
 * [Cosmo weeps at the memory.]
 * Amy: Cosmo, we'll stop that Metarex!
 * Rouge: [Over video] Fat chance. That thing was too powerful for even Shadow to defeat.
 * Chris: [Quietly] Whoa. It must be strong...
 * Tails: [Quietly] ...I think we'd better retreat...
 * [Hands on hips, Amy is surprised at Tails' decision.]
 * Amy: Are you kidding? We can't let him win!
 * Tails: I just want to pull back temporarily. I don't think we should take that thing on until we have a chance to analyze it and come up with a plan to blow it away!
 * Knuckles: I agree. We have to think this thing through.
 * Amy: That'll be a first!
 * Knuckles: I'm only trying to use my head.
 * Amy: Then we might as well give up now.
 * Rouge: [Over video] She's right.
 * [The video ends]
 * Chris: Shadow...
 * Sonic: Don't worry about him. He's a survivor. Am I right?
 * Chris: [Nods; To himself] Shadow made it through the battle on Space Colony ARK. He must be okay.
 * Knuckles: Let's get going while we have the chance!
 * Amy: I say we stay!
 * Tails: We'd better decide now. There's something big heading this way.
 * [A colorful blob appears on the radar, heralding the Scarship's presence.]
 * Tails: It's coming out of warp space.
 * [Sure enough, the Scarship appears.]
 * Cosmo: [To herself] I swore I'd destroy it. But... I can't risk their lives.
 * [Tails' eyes shimmer at the sight of the Scarship.]
 * Cosmo: Tails, get us out of here now!
 * Amy: But Cosmo, you're the last one here who would want to retreat. That Metarex is responsible for wiping out everybody you cared about. Now's your chance to make that ship pay for the pain and misery it caused you!
 * Cosmo: I can't. I want to fight that thing alone, Amy. [Weeps] I'm willing to risk my life to battle Metarex, but not yours!
 * Sonic: ...Sooner or later, we'll have to face it. And there's no time like the present!
 * [Cosmo looks up in shock.]
 * Tails: Alright then.
 * Knuckles: I still think it's a long shot, I'm willing to try. Let's do it!
 * [Chris nods]
 * Amy: I'm glad you see it my way.
 * Cream: We can win!
 * Cheese: Chaaoo!
 * [Still teary, Cosmo stands up.]
 * Cosmo: [Delighted] This means so much to me. Thank you all.
 * [Everyone gives thumbs-ups, and Sonic and Amy wink.]

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [The Scarship sizes up the Blue Typhoon.]
 * Scarship: This battle is already over.
 * [It opens fire.]

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Tails: Raise all shields!
 * Cream: Right!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [A shield projected around the entire ship blocks the attacks.]
 * Scarship: They're only delaying their destruction.
 * [The Scarship unloads a swarm of missiles.]

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Tails: There's no turning back now. Ready?
 * Amy: OK, let's go!
 * Knuckles: Just give me the word.
 * Tails: Are you ready to go, Chris?
 * Chris: All set.
 * Sonic: Let's go for it!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [The Typhoon flies away from the Scarship.]
 * Scarship: What are they up to?
 * Chris: Expand the shield! Change to cloaking mode!
 * [The shield is greatly expanded.]
 * Scarship: So, they think they can hide.
 * [The Scarship fires into the void where the Typhoon is supposed to be.]
 * Scarship: But these seeker missiles will find their target.
 * [The Scarship fires into the void where the Typhoon is supposed to be.]
 * Scarship: I'll unleash my entire arsenal against them!
 * [The Scarship fires with everything it has. Chris reluctantly ejects various items out of the ship.]
 * Scarship: That debris is made to convince me that I destroyed their ship, but I haven't... yet!
 * [It fires five missiles at the Typhoon. It is hit. Now that the Scarship knows the location of the Typhoon, it fires all its weapons.]
 * Scarship: I will destroy that ship. I'll keep firing missiles until it's obliterated!
 * [Knuckles is revealed to be hiding inside a floating locker.]
 * Knuckles: All clear.
 * [He, Amy, and Sonic use jet-packs to fly out of the locker.]
 * Sonic: That Metarex saw through our trick, but it didn't realize it was a double trick! Let's go junk that Metarex!
 * [Knuckles and Amy push the space junk into piles.]
 * Scarship: Enough of these games! I'll fire all my missiles at once, and wipe them out with one big bang!
 * [Knuckles and Amy have done their work. The space junk is now clogging the Scarship's weapons.]
 * Scarship: Huh? Why can't I fire?!
 * [The three heroes stand at the front of the Scarship.]
 * Amy: This Metarex is in a real jam now!
 * Scarship: I can blast right through it!
 * [It glows red.]
 * Knuckles: Let's get outta here!
 * [They fly away from The Scarship as it tries to fire its weapons, but the space junk causes them to explode.]
 * Amy: It's a really bad idea to fire your weapons when your missile tubes are clogged up.
 * Knuckles: Now that you can't fight anymore, your only choice is to surrender!
 * [The Scarship bears down on them.]
 * Scarship: Never!
 * [The three Mobians fly out of the way. The Scarship then flies towards the Blue Typhoon.]
 * Sonic: Aah! It's gonna crash into the Blue Typhoon!
 * Knuckles: Tails better move it!

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Tails: Engines up!
 * [The Blue Typhoon powers up its engines.]
 * Tails: We don't have enough power to get away in time.
 * Chris: Routing all power to the engines.

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [The Typhoon backs up, but the Scarship is still faster.]
 * Amy: Oh no! They won't get away fast enough!
 * Knuckles: The one way to get enough power is to use the Master Emerald at full force, but only I can do that.
 * Sonic: Look out!

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * [The Scarship, which is much larger than the Typhoon, is about to crash.]
 * Tails: It's no use! We're gonna crash!
 * Chris: It's all over!
 * [Cosmo and Cream are scared for their lives. Suddenly the Scarship is knocked backwards. Everybody sees Shadow standing on the hull.]
 * Chris: It's Shadow!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [He spins towards the Scarship, executing the same tactic he used before - slamming into it all over.]
 * Knuckles: You should never underestimate that guy.
 * Amy: But why wasn't Shadow destroyed with Dr. Eggman?
 * [The Crimson Egg descends from above.]
 * Dr. Eggman: [Laughs] I'm like a bad rash. You can't get rid of me!

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Dr. Eggman: Metarex missed me!
 * [It is revealed that a slot where the Eggman logo is opened up, and the missile flew through and out the other side.]

[Scene Change: Space]
 * Dr. Eggman: As usual, I used my brains and showed that missile the door.
 * [He opens and closes the slot for proof.]
 * Knuckles: [Waves hand] It's lucky for you you don't have to fit your head through there.

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Decoe: Even more brilliant was the way Dr. Eggman faked an explosion by using a smokescreen.
 * Bocoe: While the smoke was hiding us, we warped away to a safe part of the galaxy.

[Scene Change: Space]
 * Amy: Hey, Sonic was just here! Where did he go?
 * [They look down to see Shadow running on the hull of the Scarship. Sonic joins him.]
 * Sonic: Somethin' tells me we're thinkin' the same thing. If we destroy the engine room, this Metarex'll be out of commission for good!
 * Shadow: I didn't ask for your help, so stay out of this!
 * Sonic: I see you haven't lost any of your charm.
 * [They run inside its engine.]
 * Shadow: You certainly are persistent, stranger.
 * Sonic: What do you mean, "stranger"? Don't you recognize me, Shadow?
 * [They split up and head down different passages. The Scarship cries out as both its engines are destroyed. The two hedgehogs emerge from the inside of the Scarship, which is now on fire.]
 * Knuckles: They did it!
 * Amy: [To the Scarship] If you agree to surrender now, we'll agree to help you put out those fires.
 * Scarship: I'll never surrender or give up my mission.
 * [Cosmo look on in dread.]
 * Amy: What's your mission, anyway?
 * Scarship: To destroy Sonic and Dr. Eggman no matter what it takes.
 * [It begins pulsating in a light blue glow.]
 * Knuckles: What's it doing?

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * [A monitor flashes DANGER.]
 * Dr. Eggman: That Metarex is trying to blow us all away by self-destructing!
 * Bokkun: Let's go, Doctor!
 * Dr. Eggman: It's too late to get away!

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [The Scarship begins to explode.]
 * Sonic: What do we do?
 * Shadow: We need to buy some more time!
 * [''He yells as he uses the power of the red Chaos Emerald.

The Chaos Control burst freezes the Scarship in time'']
 * Knuckles: What'd you do?
 * Shadow: I stopped time from advancing around the ship. We have ninety seconds.

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Dr. Eggman: Alright, now, count down with me!
 * Decoe, Bocoe, Bokkun and Eggman: 88, 87, 86...

[Scene Change: Space]
 * Shadow: If you want to disarm it, you better hurry.
 * Sonic: Right. [On communicator] Come in, Tails.

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Tails: [On communicator] We'll use the Sonic Power Cannon. Come to the ship as fast as you can!
 * Chris: That Metarex' armor is strong.
 * Tails: Yeah, I know, Chris, but we can use a warp field to make it weaker.
 * Chris: Right.

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Decoe, Bocoe, Bokkun and Eggman: 64, 63, 62...

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Chris: Warp field driver is all set, Tails.
 * Tails: Prepare to set down a warp field to surround the Metarex.
 * Chris: Roger.
 * [A warp drive field is fired out of the cone of the Typhoon. It strikes the Scarship.]

[Scene Change: The Crimson Egg - Cockpit]
 * Decoe, Bocoe, Bokkun and Eggman: 44, 43, 42...

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [The Sonic Power Cannon is prepared, and it is charged.]
 * Tails: Route all energy to the power cannon!
 * [Sonic runs inside and lands on the spin platform.]
 * Chris: We have full power!
 * Tails: Load cannon!
 * Chris: Sonic, get set for launch!
 * Sonic: Ready!
 * [He starts his spin.]

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * Tails: Fire the cannon at my command! Targeting Metarex!
 * [The targeting computers lock on to the Scarship.]
 * Tails: Sonic Power Cannon, fire!
 * [The cannon charges with energy.]

[Scene Change: Space]
 * [Sonic is launched out of the Sonic Driver.]
 * Decoe, Bocoe, Bokkun and Eggman: 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! 0!
 * [The Scarship is glowing rainbow colors as a result of the Sonic Drive. Sonic impacts it with crushing force. At long last, the Metarex Scarship is ultimately destroyed.]
 * Dark Oak: That ship was one of my most powerful Metarex. How did they defeat it?
 * Dr. Eggman: Thanks for saving us, Sonic! You'll regret it!
 * [He laughs. Rouge returns to the Crimson Egg as it flies away. Shadow stands on the hull of Eggman's craft. Sonic watches them go from the outside of his own craft.]

[Scene Change: The Blue Typhoon - Bridge]
 * [Silence fills the bridge.]
 * Cosmo: [To herself] I finally got even with the Metarex that wiped out my clan. I wish I could be at peace now, but there are more Metarex out there, and more planets in danger. I have to keep fighting until the galaxy is safe again!
 * [The Blue Typhoon flies on. The episode ends and the credits roll.]
