Plot
Following their battle with the Metarex fleet, Sonic and the gang are stranded on an alien planet with the Chaotix, who are running a cafe to pay for parts to their own ship. Dr. Eggman arrives looking for Sonic and the others, while Pale Bayleaf waits in orbit to shoot the Blue Typhoon down. Helping out Sonic and the gang, the Chaotix provide parts for their ship. However, Eggman provides the real assistance when he disguises the Crimson Egg as the Blue Typhoon and takes the full force of the Metarex attack. Pale Bayleaf moves off, and no ambush awaits the real Typhoon once it takes off.
