History
Past
Some time after E-123 Omega was created, the robot defected from the Eggman Empire and began opposing Dr. Eggman and everything he created.[2][3]
About a month after the Eggman War, E-106 Eta roamed one of Eggman's bases by itself. It did not notice Espio the Chameleon, who was investigating the base, sneak past it.[4]
Some time after the Eggman War, multiple Egg Keppers were left deactivate in one of Eggman's abandoned base near Windmill Village.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
Crisis City
When Dr. Eggman headed towards Sunset City in his Faceship to create a Zombot outbreak in the city, Omega began heading there to intercept Eggman with the aid of his team.[5] Unfortunately, a colossal Zombot outbreak soon erupted in the city. Omega thus went to work fighting the Zombots. When Sonic later arrived and tried to clear out some Zombots keeping some civilians trapped in a building, Omega beat Sonic to it by attacking the Zombots first.cAfter Shadow got turned into a Zombot.[3] Omega thus began fighting Shadow and showed him as much mercy as the other Zombots. Unfortunately for him, Shadow ripped Omega's chest open and two other Zombots tore his arms off. Sonic helped keep Shadow off of him and suggested retreating again but Omega still refused. Soon, Miles "Tails" Prower and Silver the Hedgehog arrived on the scene and the latter used his psychokinesis on the Zombots. Tails then removed Omega's head from his severed body and took off with Silver.[6]
The Last Minute
After Restoration HQ was overrun with Zombots, resulting in an emergency evacuation for the survivors. Gemerl was tasked by Amy to retrieve Omega's head from Tails' lab and take him to the Rescue Shuttle that was preparing for take-off.[7]
All or Nothing
After the Rescue Shuttle made it to Angel Island, while the others discussed current events, Cream carried Omega's head outside to see Whisper; the wolf was attempting to shoot Eggman which Cream and Omega discouraged (as Omega wanted to destroy the doctor himself). After Cream was able to calm Whisper down, she promised that she and Omega would stay by her side so that she would not be lonely; Omega noted from this that he was not lonely, but he was enraged.[8]
Out of the Blue
After Super Sonic and Super Silver managed to avert the Metal Virus crisis by sending it into the sun via the Warp Topaz, Eggman decided to make a swift escape using the Restoration's Rescue Shuttle. Aboard the ship, Orbot found Omega's head, who asked him to use his head to bludgeon both himself and Cubot. This was ignored, and Eggman instead stated that he had a plan to use him against Sonic's allies.[2]
Some time later in one of Eggman's labs, Eggman outfitted Omega with a new body but kept the robot in stasis to prevent him from attacking him. Eggman told Omega that he would be using him for a new special project later, which only increased Omega's hate for his creator. Eggman subsequently hardwired Omega into a large mech that he used to attack Spiral Hill Village with.[9] As Eggman commenced with his attack, Omega remained attached to Eggman's mech, forced to attack his allies. At some point, however, he rebelled, wanting to destroy his creator while at the same time wanting to destroy Eggman's enemies. Eventually, Omega ceased firing, thus giving the others a chance to attack Eggman. Charmy in particular tried to free Omega, asking him to fight Eggman's control. However, Eggman managed to rein in Omega, forcing him to attack again. Eventually though, Sonic arrived and released Omega, who unleashed all his ammunition and destroyed Eggman's mech before falling partially apart. After Eggman had left, the broken Omega was pulled into a hug by Tangle.[10]
Chao Racing and Badnik Bases
The broken Omega was later delivered to Tails' Workshop. While Amy brought in his parts, Rouge presented Tails with Omega's encrypted blueprints taken straight from Dr. Eggman's personal files. When Tails noted that Omega needed a full rebuild though, Omega admitted that it was good thing he was a robot, because if he was an organic being, he would experience increased levels of stress. In the end, Sonic and Tails decided to get the cipher for Omega's blueprints from an old Eggman base near Windmill Village, while Amy and Rouge would go to White Park Zone to trade E-100 Series spare parts from the local Chao racing champion, Clutch the Opossum.
Omega was brought with the latter by Rouge in her suitcase, who urged him to stay quiet during their trio. Regardless, Omega spoke out after Rouge's meeting with Clutch, who would let her take anything she wanted from his collection if he handed Cheese over to him. Noting that Cheese was not her property, Omega wondered if she was going to take the parts through violence. Rouge, however, did not intend to give Cheese to Clutch, after which she told Omega that she had a plan and that she would need his help.[1] Left in Clutch's suite, Omega eventually spotted Shadow in there and asked him if Rouge had made changes to her plan. Later, Shadow would carry Omega's head when he attacked Clutch during the opossum's negotiations with Rouge. Omega then admitted that Shadow's plan was far superior to what Rouge had come up with.[11]
After Sonic and Tails met Belle in an abandoned Eggman's base, the residential Badniks were alerted to Tails' intrusions on the base's computer. As such, Beats and Egg Keeper began swarming the heroes with an Egg Keeper tying to capture Tails, but ended up capturing Belle instead until Tails destroyed it.[11] As more Egg Keepers and Beats arrived though, the heroes managed to break out of the base and escape the Badniks. Not long after Clutch, who had gathered a collection of used Badniks in his suite at the White Park Grand Chateau, would activate them and have them attack Amy and her friends when they crossed them.[12]
