====Synopsis====
  +
The story opens with [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Sonic X)|Sonic]] having a tea party at the [[Thorndyke Mansion]] with [[Cream the Rabbit (Sonic X)|Cream the Rabbit]], her pet Chao [[Cheese (Sonic X)|Cheese]], and her mother [[Vanilla the Rabbit (Sonic X)|Vanilla the Rabbit]] the due to Sonic promising to do so on a slow day. Suddenly, [[Shadow the Hedgehog (Pre-Super Genesis Wave)|Shadow the Hedgehog]] and [[Metal Sonic v3.0|Metal Sonic]] appear on top of the table via [[Chaos Control (Pre-Super Genesis Wave)|Chaos Control]] and Metal's new [[Zone (Pre-Super Genesis Wave)|Zone]]-warping engine. Shadow manages to kick Metal away from him, but the robot then flies off in search of the resident [[Doctor Eggman (Pre-Super Genesis Wave)|Dr. Eggman]].
  +
  +
After Shadow explains how he ended up in this Zone and Sonic tells Shadow that they are from another world too and that [[Shadow the Hedgehog (Sonic X)|their Shadow]] is supposed to be dead in this world, Sonic then gives Shadow the grand tour of [[Station Square (Sonic X)|Station Square]] starting with the [[Chaotix Detective Agency (Sonic X)|Chaotix Detective Agency]], who are busy rebuilding their detective office. Once [[Vector the Crocodile (Sonic X)|Vector]] sees Shadow, he asks Sonic if that really is Shadow with him, while confusing him with his world's Shadow. Sonic then simply replies "Long story. He's better now." Shadow then inquires as to what happened to their detective office, and Sonic explains how an organization known as [[Society for Observing and Neutralizing Inter-dimensional Creatures and Xenomorphs|S.O.N.I.C.X.]] turned Vector into a forty-foot monster inside the office causing him to grow the roof of it. They then head off to [[Station Square Elementary School]] to greet [[Christopher Thorndyke]], who is glad to see Shadow and gives him a rather painful hug. Shadow then tells him that he must keep moving and that he will be back one day.
  +
  +
Meanwhile, [[Doctor Eggman (Sonic X)|Dr. Eggman]]'s messenger robot, [[Bokkun]], goes to answer a knock at the door of Eggman's tower. Bokkun attempts to tell the visitor that if he isn't selling cookies he can get lost, but as soon he sees it's Metal Sonic, he flies away screaming. This alerts [[Decoe]] and [[Bocoe]] who are cleaning the glass tube around Eggman's [[El Gran Gordo]] disguise. They see Metal Sonic and run to their master who is "scheming" in his room, while really looking at pictures of the Thorndyke Family maid, [[Ella]]. Metal Sonic bows before Eggman and tells him he is from the [[Prime Zone]] and awaits his orders. Eggman deduces that the Prime Zone is an alternate reality; a world similar to theirs, but at the same time different. Decoe finds this preposterous, but Bocoe thinks it just as preposterous as a world of talking animals and beings like Eggman. Eggman then begins scheming how he could use Metal Sonic to his advantage.
  +
  +
Meanwhile, Shadow is introduced to Chris's uncle [[Sam Speed]], the leader of the [[Speed Team|High Speed Police]]. Sam says that Chris had spoke highly of Shadow before, but thought that Shadow was dead. Sam then explains that the High Speed Police use special race-cars to enforce the law in order to catch speedsters. As they talk, a hidden camera in Sam's car is being operated by S.O.N.I.C.X. as part of "Operation: Infiltrate the High Speed Police". Just as they're about to launch the rest of their plan into action, [[Jerome Wise]] notices that Shadow is there with Sonic. They then decide to scrap the plan as taking on both Sonic and Shadow would be too much for them.
  +
  +
Back in Eggman's tower, Eggman boasts about his great genius and once he finishes, he tells his henchbots to watch the tower while he goes to finish off Sonic. He then takes off in his [[Egg Mobile (Sonic X)|Egg Mobile]] with Metal Sonic close behind.
  +
  +
Meanwhile, Sonic and Shadow are close to the sea, and Shadow remarks about how peaceful Sonic's world is while [[Big the Cat (Sonic X)|Big the Cat]] fishes not too far off. Sonic offers to let him stay here, but Shadow doesn't accept as he still has his duty to fulfill. Shadow then gets the idea of using Chaos Control on Metal Sonic again to warp home again, and Eggman and Metal then appear in front of the two hedgehogs. While Eggman sees Shadow and is baffled by this, Metal attacks Shadow and the hedgehog does the same and uses Chaos Control and warps way. Left without a robot to fight his battle, Eggman returns to his base as fast as he can while Sonic says that he'll meet with Shadow again some day.
  +
  +
Back at Eggman's tower, the doctor crashes his Egg Mobile and runs down to a small chamber holding his zone's Shadow the Hedgehog, and wonders what it was he saw just now.
  +
  +
Meanwhile, Sonic is running back to Thorndyke Manor and is met by his zone's [[Amy Rose (Sonic X)|Amy Rose]], [[Miles "Tails" Prower (Sonic X)|Miles "Tails" Prower]], [[Knuckles the Echidna (Sonic X)|Knuckles the Echidna]] and [[Rouge the Bat (Sonic X)|Rouge the Bat]] and ask about Eggman's attack and if Shadow is really back, but Sonic says everything has been taken care of. Sonic and his friends then enter the mansion, and Rouge's partner, [[Topaz]] offers her sympathies about Shadow not being there. Sonic then tells Chris that Shadow is gone, and tells him that he has gone on another adventure, and come tomorrow, so will they. The two friends then give the thumbs up to each other and say "To the next adventure!".
