Everything is back to normal and Tom and Maddie are fixing their house from the attack a couple of days before.

"You got enough there?" he asked.

"Yes, Mr. Manager." she replied.

"Need any more?"

Tom playfully sticks a roller brush in front of Maddie.

"You get that away!"

Suddenly, a knock at the front door. Tom answers it to find Commander Walters on the doorstep.

"Mr. and Mrs. Wachowski?"

"Yes?" Tom replied.

Commander Walters reaches into his coat and hands them an envelope.

"A token of appreciation for your government for keeping quiet about recent incidents which never occurred."

"Wow!"

Tom takes the envelope.

"Wonder what it is."

"Money to fix the house?" Maddie guessed.

"Letter from the president?"

"You'll see." Commander Walters said.

"Okay."

Tom opens the envelope, revealing a $50 gift card to Olive Garden.

"Olive Garden." Maddie stated.

"Yeah, heh. The way you said "You'll see" made me think it was something better than the things we said." Tom chuckled.

"Have you tried their Never Ending Pasta Bowl? It never ends!" Commander Walters suggested.

"That sounds... fancy."

"Mm-hmm. Well, thank you. We appreciate the gesture." Maddie said.

"Oh, hey. I guess we can close the file on that Robotnik guy, huh? Just disappeared." Tom asked.

"I'm sorry, but no such person exists or ever has existed."

"I wish that were true."

"You haven't, by any chance, been in contact with a certain two alien creatures since the incident, have you? Uncle Sam would love to have a chat with them. Very casual. Brunch, perhaps." Commanrer Walters asked, looking around..

"Oh, you mean those two little blue and light blue fellows? No. No, nothing. No." Tom said.

"Mm-mmm." Maddie shook her head.

"Doubt we'll ever hear from them again."

"Mm-mmm."

"Very well." Commander Walters said.

"Okay. Thank you." Tom said.

"Great." Maddie said.

Commander Walters glances inside the house but Tom slowly closes the door.

"Yep."

Commander Walters tries to peek inside a little more, but the door is now fully closed.

"To be honest, I'm pretty pumped about the pasta bowl."

Tom and Maddie walk into the living room and Sonic and Y/N pokes their head up from behind the couch.

"So, do you guys wanna watch a movie or what?" Sonic suggested.

"Sorry, buddy. It's a school night. It's time for you to go back to your cave." Maddie apologized.

"What?!"

Sonic jumps up from behind and sits on the couch next to Ozzy.

"It's 3:00 in the afternoon!"

"You know how you get when you're tired. Come on." Tom urged him.

"He's right, you know." Y/N said, looking fine with the rules.

"Me? I'm not like anything. Ugh, you guys are so uncool!" Sonic groaned.

"Yeah, yeah, we know."

Sonic and Y/N starts making their way to the front door.

"Hey, buddy, where you two going?" Tom asked.

"You said we have to go back to our cave." Sonic pointed out.

"We did."

Tom and Maddie smile. Tom opens the hatch to the attic and they let Sonic and Y/N go in first, and they are visibly surprised that all of their possessions from the cave in the woods are now in the attic.

"Oh, my-- Are you kidding me? I can't believe it. How did you-- It's-- it's all here."

Tom and Maddie climb up as well and Sonic starts zipping around his possessions and furniture with Y/N doing the same but in regular speed as she looks at her books that are started nicely.

"Look at this! Are you kidding?! And the beanbag?! No way! How did you even get this?! And you got it all the way over--"

Sonic laughs, does a funny dance on his bed and jumps up and down a few times.

"This is amazing!" Y/N laughed, collapsing on her very own bed.

"I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it!"

Sonic lays down and then sits up as Tom and Maddie sit next to him as Y/N joins in since her bed is separated from her brother's.

"Well, welcome home." Maddie smiled.

"Thank you, so much." Sonic smiled.

"I'm happy that we met. There's no place like home." Y/N smiled.

As the camera zooms out of the attic and shows a bird's eye view of Green Hills, Ozzy starts barking.

"Oh, no, you don't! No second-best animal friends allowed in my room." Sonic said.

Ozzy barks again.

"Wait, what are you doing? Stay away from me! Stop it! I'm warning you, I've got nunchucks! Hey, stop! Okay, you can stay!"

This made Y/N laugh at him.

Meanwhile, in Mushroom Planet

Dr. Robotnik has completely lost his sanity, he is looking zany, and looking at his reflection in a puddle of water as he finishes shaving himself completely bald, and his mustache has long grown-out.

"My grasp on sanity remains... absolute."

He turns his head.

"Isn't that right, Agent Stone?"

He is looking at the stone carving of what is supposed to be Agent Stone. Robotnik picks up the rock.

"Why don't you get a head start?"

He then tosses the rock.

"Do some Rock-Connaissance! HAHAHAHAHA! ROCK-CONNAISSANCE! Come on, that's hilarious!"

Robotnik bumps a mushroom.

"What's the matter with you?!"

He picks up his doctor's log, which reads, DOCTOR'S LOG: DAY 87.

"Here's the "sitch": Uninhabited planet,"

He picks up a large backpack and puts it on his back.

"no resources, no supplies, no apparent way home... A lesser man would die here."

He finally holds up two small canisters housing Sonic and Y/N's quills.

"I'll be home by Christmas."

Robotnik puts the capsule away and puts his flight goggles on and starts imitating a robot, making servo noises with each turn of his body as he walks. He sees the stone carving of Agent Stone again, picks it up, and throws it one last time.

"ROCK-CONNAISSANCE!!!"

He cackles loudly.

"Come on! Cheer up!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back in Green Hills, the leaves began rustling as a Ring portal opens and a yellow two-tailed fox pops out, which is revealed to be Tails, and he is reading the energy levels from Sonic and Y/N from a small handheld device.

"If these readings are accurate, they're here. I found them! I just hope I'm not too late."

Tails uses his tails like a helicopter to fly over the forests and into the town.
