Synopsis
On Angel Island, Dr. Eggman and Tails are putting the finishing touches on the Multi-Portal Generator; the doctor complains that the device was not up to his standards but Tails retorted by saying they should focus on building something that would not implode the island. Though this was a light jab at Eggman, Knuckles worriedly believed that it was a possibility. Sonic returns from his run to find that Eggman and Tails completed the machine. When Amy asks if Sonic had thought of each person that is going to take on each of the Deadly Six, he suddenly feels a sharp jolt of pain. This is noticeable and Amy tries to run to his side but Sonic catches his breath, stops her and says that they should get everyone moving. Sonic begins by saying everyone will be splitting into teams where they can; he proposes that Tails and Amy take on Zomom, believing they would be easily able to outsmart him and take his Chaos Emerald since he had low intelligence. He moves on and tells Knuckles and Espio to take on Zazz since he was a berserker and they were the best trained fighters of the group. Knuckles turns this down as he did not wish to leave the Master Emerald behind with Eggman and Metal Sonic; he also added that while everyone else was going on suicide missions, Sonic was in no condition to fight himself. Eggman asks if he was implying that he would betray them at such a critical juncture, to which Sonic also sees the flaw in his plan and accepts Knuckles' decision. Espio is fine with this anyway as Vector and Charmy faced the horrors of the Metal Virus on their own and felt that he could do no less; he added that he already had a tactic in mind.
Sonic tasks Silver and Whisper with taking on Zor, telling them that he is weird and they should handle him from a distance. The duo accept, with Silver getting excited to work with the Guardian Angel once again. Sonic explains that Zeena thinks quite highly of herself, which tends to make her underestimate her opponents. Though it was a risk, Sonic tasks Gemerl with taking her own and asks him to use this to his advantage. Cream then speaks out, asking why she was not picked as she wanted to help as well. Gemerl protests saying that it was too dangerous for her and she had proven to be very brave already; the robot told her that he cannot lose her too. Sonic then leaves Master Zik to the Babylon Rogues, saying that though he was small and old, he was craftier than the rest of the Deadly Six combined. Jet scoffs at this prospect, saying that they would be able to handle Master Zik with ease; Storm adds that he was not afraid to hit an old man. Eggman then explains that Rouge had to steal the final two Emeralds from Zavok and the Faceship; once they all returned with the Emeralds, Sonic would use them to become Super Sonic and then use the Warp Topaz to undo the Metal Virus. Eggman snidely adds that Sonic may become succumb to the virus first, to which he tells the doctor to not sound so eager as his life was on the line as well. With this, Eggman calls Tails so that they could build a treadmill for Sonic. Though the hedgehog claims that his speed fights the infection more than the motion, Eggman stated that the speed was not doing it anymore and he did not want to risk Sonic turning collapsing somwhere on the island and waking up a Zombot.
