Sonic Heroes/Script (Team Dark)

This is the script of Team Dark's storyline in Sonic Heroes.

Opening
[''Rouge drops down into one of Eggman's vaults while "This Machine" plays in the background. She cautiously puts her back to the door and enters the passcode on the keypad, and the vault opens. She walks inside.'']
 * Rouge: This must be it! I've found Eggman's secret treasure!

[''Rouge approaches Shadow, who is resting motionless in a stasis machine. Suddenly, Omega boots up, marches forward and scans Shadow and Rouge. Rouge operates the control panel and drains Shadow's stasis machine, freeing him, and the hatch opens. The moment Shadow opens his eyes, Omega violently tears up the place with gunfire. Shadow leaps forward and tackles Rouge to the ground.'']
 * Shadow: Stay here.
 * Rouge: Shadow!

[''Omega continues to blast his weapons around. He tries to aim for Shadow, but he dodges his bullets easily.'']
 * Omega: Must eradicate all Eggman's robots!
 * Rouge: Huh? [Shadow resists Omega's gunfire and jumps at him in retaliation, but Rouge intercepts and breaks up the fight.] Hey, hold up! [Feeling tired, Rouge looks around the wrecked room. She sits on a ledge and speaks to Omega.] Now I get it... now I know what this is all about. You're mad at Eggman for sealing you in this room. [To Shadow] And you... you can't remember anything, can you? [Shadow doesn't respond, but she takes it as a "no".] Then it's settled. Now you two make up so we can start looking for Eggman, together! [''Rouge jumps down and pulls Shadow and Omega closer. She puts Shadow's hand above Omega's, and then places her hand on top.] Aw yeah, baby, this makes us a team!

Before fighting Team Chaotix
[''Team Dark are standing on a high platform in Grand Metropolis. Rouge spots Team Chaotix on the other side.'']
 * Rouge: Man, who are those creeps over there?

[Espio hears Rouge and becomes wary.]
 * Vector: What's up, Espio?
 * Espio: And you are...?
 * Rouge: Just whaddya think you're doing here?
 * Vector: Who's this broad?
 * Espio: Our client's adversary, perhaps.
 * Charmy: You mean the bad guys?!
 * Rouge: You guys don't fool me. I know what you're after! Better stay outta my way!

After beating Egg Albatross
[''The defeated Eggman is lying on the floor in Bullet Station. It appears to be a model with an Eggman head on a spring sticking out of its belly, set up as a decoy for the team. The model speaks in Eggman's voice.'']
 * Dr. Eggman (model): Muhahahaha! Muhahahaha!

[''Omega shakes his fist in rage. Shadow stares menacingly at a damaged robot copy of himself on the floor, making Rouge concerned.'']
 * Rouge: Shadow...
 * Shadow: Let's go.

[''The team head off. After they leave, the Eggman decoy melts into a purple liquid and reforms into Neo Metal Sonic.'']
 * Neo Metal Sonic: Ultimate life form data... has been copied.

Before fighting Team Sonic
[''Team Sonic are exploring Frog Forest while Team Dark are standing on a ledge above them. Shadow catches sight of the team.'']
 * Shadow: Look, it's that hedgehog...
 * Rouge: Wonder what the big rush is all about? Betcha those guys will end up getting in my way and making trouble.

[Knuckles notices Team Dark above them.]
 * Knuckles: Hey, isn't that...
 * Tails: Sonic!
 * Sonic: Heh. Talk about being stubborn and full of surprises...
 * Rouge: Long time no see, boys! Too bad you had to come all this way for nothing! We'll take it from here.
 * Knuckles: What'd you say?
 * Omega: Sensors locked on Eggman. Non-compliant intruders will be destroyed.
 * Sonic: Hmm, didn't you know? We have a date with Eggman, too.
 * Shadow: Is that so... well then, it'll be a date to die for!
 * Sonic: Hey! That's my line!!

[Sonic and Shadow spring into a battle.]

After beating Egg Emperor
[The team are staring down at the defeated phony Eggman in his fortress.]
 * Omega: Eggman target completely destroyed.

[Rouge walks into a corridor lined with stasis capsules, each containing a robot clone of Shadow.]
 * Rouge: Now let's find that secret treasure! [Rouge is taken by the scale of the room and the vast number of clones.] Ahh!

[Omega marches into the room.]
 * Omega: Prepare to destroy immediate area.
 * Rouge: Hey Omega... did I ever tell you that Shadow is a robot, and... oh, never mind. Good luck!
 * Omega: You know about cloning... [Rouge pauses for thought. Omega proceeds down the corridor.] The original must exist somewhere.

[Rouge leaves the room and rejoins Shadow outside.]
 * Rouge: All this for what? Nothing! I might as well go look for that Master Emerald, since that irritating echidna is here.
 * Shadow: Hah, some things never change, do they?
 * Rouge: Whaddya saying? What else is a famous treasure hunter supposed to do?
