"City Of Dreams", "All You Need Is A Bit Of Chaos" and "A Rose By Any Other Name"

 * The mysteries of the Hidden City of The Ancients continue to obsess the heroes: Are the citizens of this pocket environment hostile or friendly? Could they be the answer to Planet Mobius' secret origin? Will Sonic and the others from Knothole Village be ambassadors of peace or will they be forced to mobilize for conflict? Meanwhile, in the Knuckles story: In pursuit of the evil Dr. Robotnik (who stole shards of the Master Emerald), Knuckles follows him deep into the mysterious Cat Country where he finds the Mystic Ruins. Time is running out as the grounded Floating Island is invaded by Cat People. And in the backup solo story, Amy Rose gets used to her new body... and her new powers?

City of Dreams
Sonic, Nate Morgan, Sally, Antoine, Bunnie, Tails and a newly transformed Amy Rose have arrived at the Hidden City of the Ancients. Almost getting arrested, the police chief takes them to the mayor of Station Square. The mayor shows Sally, Antoine, Bunnie and Nate Morgan around the city, Sonic takes off to the hotel to senerade to the girls by the pool, Tails heads to fly around in his bi-plane and Amy decides to go shopping.

All you need is a bit of Chaos
Dr. Robotnik uses Chaos shards to revive Chaos, but doesn't have enough. He sends his E-Series robots to search for the Chaos shards. Now that the Floating Island has fallen into the ocean, Knuckles explores the area to find the pieces of the Master Emerald and Julie-Su, Vector, Espio and Mighty have been captured by mysterious cat people.

A Rose Plucked
After finishing her shopping spree, Amy Rose is stunned to find Zero trying to shoot a bird. Amy uses her Piko Piko Hammer to save the bird, but is captured by Zero.
