Third Person's POV

"Sonic! Brody! They've seen us hurry!" Sonia said as alarms rang "Give us a break!" Sonic said "This door is thicker than we expected!" Brody said and after some time the two burst through the door running ahead "Glad I'm not in the front" Manic said as Sonic and Brody screech to a halt seeing two swatbots infront of them "Sonic! Brody! Do something!" Sonia said and Brody and Sonic run back to Sonia and Manic "Okay okay!" Sonic said picking up Sonia and Brody picked up Manic and the two run off, they took a sharp turn causing the swatbots chasing them crash into a line of swatbots exploding and the heroes took that chance and escaped the factory.

*On the van*

"That's three missions in a row where we come out empty!" Brody said as Manic drives "Three times! What's up with that? We are getting nowhere fast!" Sonic said "Okay guys, let's go to the oracle and get some answers" Sonia said "Yeah we've been getting nowhere so far let's go!" Sonic said.

*At the Oracle's cave*

"Ah the young wolf and hedgehogs have come" the oracle said "well look at you all, you've grown" he said "Now tell me children, why have you come?" He asks "We need some advice" Brody said "We don't feel any closer to our parents" Manic said "Or fulfill our quest" Sonia said "Well youn wolf and hedgehogs... I can help but there's a price" the oracle said "A price?" Manic asks "An act of valor" the oracle said "valor? What do you mean?" Sonia asks and the oracle opened a portal and told the heroes to help the people on the other side and he will share his visions of the future with them and as they got pulled in their medallions got taken out.

Once they arrived the heroes were separated, Manic was in a market place where he stopped Dingo who was in a greek outfit of almost running over a girl but he got in trouble, meanwhile Sonia finds herself in a strage building and sees some mobians in greek clothes going inside a room with swatbots that were designed like greek soldiers and one spotted Sonia and questions her and Sonia decides to spin away but she can't and realises her medallion was missing and the swatbot grabbed her.

"Sonia? Manic? Where did you guys go?" Sonic and Brody asked finding themselves on a road "We better find them before they get in trouble" Brody saod "Juice and jam time!" Sonic said and the two tried to run off but they couldn't and they got caught by a swatbot.

In the end the four got reunited..... even if it meant being thrown in a jail cell and they discussed how to get out with no medallions and powers so Manic sugested the idea to make music with whatever they found on the cell to get the attention of the guards which they did and were brought to Sleet who's the emperor of this town.

Sleet sent Sonic and Brody to a gladiator pit, Manic was assigned as the palace's juggler and Sonia was assinged Sleet's servant and when the two Sleet threaten to throw them to the lions making the two accept their situation.

When Sonic and Brody get thrown in the pit they hear a roar and look at the other end and they see a minotaur wielding and axe run at them and the two were able to get his attention with the idea to be better talking with ladies, at the same time Manic was practicing juggling when Sonia run into him carrying a large plate with lots of fruits that clouded her vision "Nice going" Manic said "Sorry" Sonia said when a servant that was actually the daughter of the rightful emperor came over as she befriended Sonia and told the siblings her father was locked up in a tower. Sleet walked in the room and slipped on the fruit on the floor and the servant quickly left and when Sleet saw Sonia and Manic he ordered the swatbots to throw them to the lions.

Meanwhile Brody and Sonic where still with the minotaur as Brody was teaching him "You are really good at this huh hun?" Sonic asks kissing Brody's cheek "Of course, I have a lot of practice with such a beautiful boyfriend" Brody said wrapping an arm around Sonic making his face red as a tomato "G-geez" Sonic said flustered.

At the same time Sonia and Manic where in a coliseum holding spears as  the lions were waiting to be released "What are we going to do now?" Manic asks "First we need to get out of here, Manic go lockpick the other on the other side while I distract the lions" Sonia said "Okay, I'll be fast" Manic said running to the door.

"There you go big guy, you pass with flying colors" Brody said as the minotaur walks to him and Sonic "Now that you've helped me, how can I help you two?" The minotaur asks "Since you offer" Sonic said. At the same time Sleet sat on his throne and gave the order to release the lions as Manic got to the door and started lockpicking while the Minotaur took down the gate holding him, Brody and Sonic inside and told the duo that someone is being feed to the lions in the coliseum casuing them to run there.

"Manic! How's that lock coming?!" Sonia asks as the lion broke her spear in half "Almost there.....there!" Manic said unlocking the door and Sonia runs to him and when they get on the other side Manic closes the door and the two escape and reunite with the girl as they go to the tower as swatbots chases them in the maze, the three run into Dingo and two swatbots getting captured when Sonic, Brody and the minotaur arrived to the rescue, Dingo sent the two swatbots at them but the Minotaur took them out with ease and scare Dingo away. Sonia then proceeded to explain the plan to them and they all headed to the tower.

Once inside Manc started lockpicking the door to the emperor and freed him reuniting him with his daughter. When they returned to the coliseum the crowd cheered seeing their rightful emperor back and the minotaur walked over to the heroes "You four accomplished this with your natural abilities, you've earned these back" he said glowing and the heroes got their powers and medallions back "Alright!" The four said "Time for that usurper to go for a spin" Sonia said spinning making a tornado pulling Sleet inside and sent him flying as the crowd cheers. The four heroes where then transported back to the Oracle's cave.

"Welcome back my young friends" the Oracle said ""You've succeded without your powers!" he said "And the point of all this issss?" Sonic asks "The prophecy willbe fulfilled. You will rejoin with Queen Aleena and King Markus and become the council of six destined to defeat robotnik" the oracle said "If you are ture to yourselves and your powers of course" he said "And if your hearts never lose faith" he said "When will we see our parents?" Sonia asked and the oracle gives Sonic a snowglobe of sorts but it was a model of Mobotropolis "Shake it" the oracle said and Sonic did as the old city turned into a beautiful restored city and the oracle said it holds the answers and then transported them back to their base.

"Remember.be true to yourselves" he said through the globe as he vanishes as the chapter comes to an end.
