SILVER: You did this. SILVER: You did all of this! MEPHILES: I take it you're not from this timeline. SILVER: Actually, I am! About an hour later to be exact! SILVER: If not for this nifty little time Stone I found in Dr. Robotnik's lair, I would've never found out the truth! MEPHILES: "The truth"? And what might that entail? SILVER: That you're the one behind all of this! SILVER: That you're the one who released Iblis! You're the reason this world is destroyed! SILVER: Why did you do it?! Answer me! MEPHILES: Do I need a reason to want to watch the world burn? SONIC: Hasn't even been 10 minutes after getting sent to the future and there's already trouble. SONIC: Let's go see what all that noise is about. ROUGE: Do you think it's...? SHADOW: Mephiles? No doubt. BLAZE: Silver, did you hear that? SILVER: I felt that. Could he have risen again already...? SILVER: Damnit! BLAZE: Silver, wait! SONIC: Any particular reason you're not attacking the burning monsters out to kill us? SONIC: Don't tell me you're related to these things, too. SHADOW: No. If that wave of energy came from who I think it is, I can't afford to waste energy on fodder. SONIC: I wonder how Tails and Rouge are doing. I sure hope they're holding their own up there. ROUGE: Looks like those monsters are too distracted by the boys to worry about us. Good thing, too, because I do not want my favorite boots getting scorched. TAILS: Yeah, the distraction does make getting that area easier for us. Though, I feel like I should be down there fighting. ROUGE: Now, why are you worry about that? The boys have it covered and we have our orders: approach from the skies so we'll know sooner what we're getting ourselves into rather than later. ROUGE: So how about you calm that big brain of yours and just go with the flow? TAILS: Yeah, you're right. Sometimes I feel like I should be doing more, you know? ROUGE: Is all of this polluted air showing me the light or is there something shiny in the distance? SILVER: I could really use a ring or two right about now... MEPHILES: You've been entertaining, traveler. Though, I am afraid our contest must come to an end. PAST SILVER: What's going on over here?! BLAZE: Silver? Why are there two of you? MEPHILES: I was just getting rid of the duplicate. Step aside now! MEPHILES: More rats? This isn't what I planned... FUTURE SILVER: He caused all of this! FUTURE SILVER: He planned to trick me into going into the past and killing Sonic the Hedgehog infront of a girl who's tears would release Iblis upon the world. FUTURE SILVER: But this Time Stone prototype I found in Doctor Robotnik's lab sent me too far back and it showed me how Mephiles awakened Iblis. PAST SILVER: So you're the reason my future is like this... PAST SILVER: My future is on fire because of you! MEPHILES: Yes. I've caused all of this. MEPHILES: But only to punish humanity for all of their sins. FUTURE SILVER: That's bullshit! FUTURE SILVER: When I asked you why you did all of this, you said: SHADOW: So that's it. You have no desire for revenge. You only crave the destruction of the world. SONIC: If that was your plan, then you should've chosen someone other than this shadow to become a shadow of. BLAZE: You're going to pay for all the innocent lives that were taken because of your actions! FUTURE SILVER: Everyone get back! He's going to-! MEPHILES: Now that I have two Chaos Emeralds, even at Iblis's current state of being, this should be enough to rejoin with it. PAST SILVER: I didn't know I could do that... FUTURE SILVER: Neither did I, but I had to think of something fast. SONIC: Yo, Silver! SONIC: After we finish what we need to do, we'll rope back around and fix your future with the emeralds! SHADOW: For now, follow me into the past to seal Mephiles back into the scepter. FUTURE SILVER: Alright! PAST SILVER: Hold on! Since you changed the past, shouldn't you disappear?! BLAZE: I don't think that's how it works. Otherwise, he would've disappeared the moment he interacted with Mephiles. FUTURE SILVER: Look, I don't know the exact science of this time travel business myself. FUTURE SILVER: What I do know is that if I do disappear, at least I can say that it was worth it to save our future.
