Cosmo and Star were roaming around on a different ship and passed by three other Seedrians.

Seedrian 1: Hi, there, Cosmo and Star!

Seedrian 2: How are you two doing today?

Star: We're good, Mrs. Chrysanthemum.

Seedrian 3: Be sure to give your mother our regards.

Star: Okay, Mrs. Daisy.

Daisy: We'll see you later, girls!

Cosmo: Okay! Goodbye!

The two girls saw a tall, blue Seedrian with a big white flower on her head, and a green gem on her chest.

Cosmo/Star: Galaxina!

Galaxina: There you are, my dear sisters. You both had Mother worrying all afternoon.

Star: I would've been here sooner if I didn't have for Cosmo over here.

Cosmo: I didn't mean to. I was playing my pretend game again, and I must have forgotten what time it was.

Galaxina: Don't worry, little Cosmo. We're all pretty used to your Daydreaming by now.

Cosmo crossed her arms and pouted.

Star: There's no need for that face. It's normal for a kid to wanting to play pretend in their free time.

Cosmo: Like you don't have your own little fantasies.

Star: Very funny. What could I possibly fantasize about?

Cosmo: I hear you saying things like going on a nice walk in the fields, and having someone to hold you tight in their arms and having a true ki-

Star: (blushing) Okay, I get it!

The three went inside a room where there was a gaint tree.

Cosmo: Sorry to worry you, Mother.

Galaxina: She was dreaming again. Like always.

Star: But you'll be pleased to know that everyone is still in good health.

Galaxina: Good we still have our little medic.

Cosmo: Hey, have you ever wondered if Mother likes to daydream too, sometimes?

Galaxina: Well, maybe.

Star: It wouldn't surprise me if she did. We're her daughters after all.

Cosmo: I'll bet she dreams about being back home again, like I do.

Star: I wish my fantasies were that noble.

Galaxina: Hey, there's nothing wrong with wanting to find love someday. I'm sure being back home is a great comfort to her, to hope that one day, we'll all be back there.

Cosmo: Galaxina, the Elders say will be journeying through space like this forever.

Galaxina: Not forever, Cosmo. Just until we destroy the evil Metarex monsters for good. Only then can we rest, and search for a new planet to call home.

Star: And something tells me that day will come sooner than you think.

Galaxina: Come on, let's go! Mother has many errands for us today.

Star: I'll get started on the crops.

Cosmo: Yes. Oh. Goodbye, Mother. See you later!

Star: We love you!

After they left, Star and Cosmo saw Scarship from the window.

Star: What is that?

The ship they were on suddenly began to fall apart.

Star: Come on!

Star grabbed Cosmo's hand and they began to run until a big explosion erupted in the ship.

Galaxina: Cosmo, Star!

The whole thing turned out to just be a flashback. The real Cosmo and Star were with Tails, Knuckles, Y/n and Chaos.

Tails: Ny com link's indicating there's a Chaos Emerald somewhere nearby. But it won't pinpoint where, exactly.

Chris was talking to them over com.

Chris: Could be this one's buried way underground where it's hard to get to. Just means we're all gonna have to work a little harder to find it, that's all.

Knuckles: Well, let's not all stand here twilling our thumbs. Let's look for this thing!

The feed cut to Sonic.

Sonic: Yeah! Move it down there, will ya?

Chris, Sonic, Cream and Cheese all flew away in the X-Tornado.

Cream: Good luck everybody! Be careful, okay?

Star: You too, Creamy!

Helen left the ship.

Helen: They left, huh?

Y/n: Yeah. You coming with us? Or are you staying with uncle and Amy?

Helen: I'll stay here. Call the Blue Typhoon if you need anything.

Y/n nodded.

Y/n: I guess it's just the six of us searching from the ground then.

Chaos: Good thing you have a Chaos Creature that can help you with this search. I'm picking up a fate signal.

Star: But from where, Chaos?

Chaos: From that destroyed city up ahead.

Knuckles: Then that's where we're going.

The group went to the city to see the place was completely deserted.

Tails: Why do I have a sneaking suspicion the Metarex have been here, too? This place gives me the creeps.

Knuckles: Yup. Just another sad ex-planet.

Cosmo: Look around... Families lived here once. Children played all day without a care in the world. They didn't know what was coming. Now they're all gone, just like Mother and Galaxina. And they'll never come back. Sometimes I miss them so much.

Tails: Huh? What's that?

Cosmo: Nothing.

Star: Sis, come here.

Star hugged Cosmo.

Star: Everything's gonna be okay, I'm here.

Cosmo hugged back then she felt a hand on her shoulder.

Cosmo: Huh?

She turned to see it was Y/n.

Y/n: I know loss is hard to deal with, some deal with it worse than others. Believe me, I know. If either of you need an ear to listen to you, I'm here.

Cosmo: Thank you.

Star blushed hard.

Star: (blushing) Y-Yeah. Thank you.

Y/n nodded and walked off to search more.

Cosmo: Still can't tell him how you feel?

Star: I want to, but I don't know how?

Cosmo: This is Y/n we're talking about. He's a kind and understanding young man. If you confess to him, the worst he can say is no.

Star: That's true. Is that what will be going through your head when you confess to Tails?

Cosmo: (blushing) Um, I don't know what you're talking about.

Knuckles: Take a look at this, guys!

They ran to Knuckles who was standing over a ravine.

Knuckles: This has to be at least a mile deep!

Chaos: This is where I'm sensing the energy.

Tails: The Chaos Emerald's down there somewhere.

Tails carried Cosmo down as he flew with his tails, Knuckles simply climbed down while Y/n was using Chaos extended arm to carry him and Star down the ravine.

Cosmo: (gasp) Look! A cave!

Y/n: Let's go check it out. Star, get your floating skirt ready.

Star: Okay.

Y/n let go of Star and floated down, Tails and Cosmo landed next to her.

Cosmo: Where's Y/n?

Y/n was falling towards them and he used Chaos' arm to soften the fall.

Y/n: Star, Chaos, you okay after that?

Star: I'm fine.

Chaos: Me too.

Y/n: All right, let's go in then.

They all entered the cave and saw it was pitch black.

Cosmo: Be careful, everyone. It's dark in here.

Y/n: Give me a second, I'll start some lightning.

Cosmo was feeling the walls and she felt she hit a button, leaving her to gasp.

Tails: What's the matter?

Cosmo: I'm not sure. It felt like some kind of-

The cane began to collapse.

Chaos: What did you do?!

Tails: Aaaah! Cosmo!

Y/n: Get down!

Tails and Y/n pushed Cosmo and Star away from the rubble, but they fell to the underground.

Outside.

Knuckles climbed down to the cave.

Knuckles: They're sealed in! Hang on!

In the underground.

Y/n was slowly regaining consciousness.

Y/n: (Thinking: Ah, what happened? Oh, right. The cave collapsed! Are the others okay?!)

He saw Star was unconscious on his chest.

Y/n: I can hear her breathing, that's good. Wait.

Star woke up and she saw she was on Y/n, but that's not all. Y/n's left hand was on her butt. This made both of them red in the face.

Y/n: (blushing) Uh, hi.

Star screamed and slapped Y/n across the face.

Y/n: Ow.

Star stood up and noticed what she did.

Star: Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! It was a reflex!

Y/n: It's fine. I've been hit with worse.

Y/n noticed his right arm was broken.

Y/n: Just like this.

Star: Yeah, I'll get right on that.

Y/n: Let's find Tails and Cosmo first.

Star: We don't have to look far.

Cosmo was in front of them with an unconscious Tails.

Cosmo: Please, Tails. Oh, please be okay.

Tails got up with a big bruise on his head.

Tails: What happened?

Tails grabbed his head in pain.

Cosmo: (gasp) Careful, you're hurt.

Tails: I... I'm feeling kinda dizzy. Strange. I remember walking inside the cave, and then hearing this rumbling, and then I must've passed out.

Cosmo: It's my fault. If I hadn't touched that thing, then none of this would have happened.

Tails: The button! I remember now.

Chaos: Cosmo, at this point furious doesn't even begin to describe how I'm feeling towards you right now.

Tails: Hey, don't feel too bad, Cosmo. This is a good thing.

Y/n: Tails is right. Now that we're underground, it should be easier to spot the Emerald.

Tails: First, let's tell Chris where we are.

Cosmo: What if the Metarex are in here?

Tails: Chris, Amy, do you read me? No, good. We must've lost our connection.

Chaos: I tried calling the Typhoon, Lord Y/n's bracelet lost connection, too.

Cosmo: I'm sorry.

Chaos: Sorry doesn't fix my partner's arm or Tails' head.

Star: Yeah, I'll get right on that.

Tails: Don't worry, Cosmo. We'll make the most of it. We're still getting a reading, so the Emerald's gotta be down here somewhere. Let's go!

Star: Give me a second, I need to relocate Y/n's arm.

Cosmo: You also need help. Here.

Cosmo ripped off a piece of her dress.

Tails: Really, I feel just fine, Cosmo.

Cosmo: I don't care. It's better to be safe, than sorry, I always say.

Tails blushing a little and this didn't go unnoticed by Star and Y/n. Star tapped Y/n's shoulder and she pointed at Tails and Cosmo with a kissy face, earning a small chuckle from Y/n.

Tails: What's so funny?

Star: Nothing. And...

Star relocated Y/n's broken arm.

Star: My healing was able to relocate your bone back into place, but your body is going to have to do the rest of the job itself.

Chaos: Here, I'll support your arm until then.

Chaos incised Y/n's arm for support.

Y/n: Thank you both.

With the X-Tornado.

Chris: I just hope they're okay. I can't get rid of this bad feeling. If that Emerald is buried underground, things could get kind of dangerous.

Cream: Don't worry. If things get scary, at least Knuckles and my big brother are there. They wouldn't let anything happened to them, Chris, 'cause they're tough.

Cheese: Chao!

Sonic: Don't sweat it, buddy. I got it covered. If something goes wrong, I'll be there in a jiffy.

Chris: Thanks, Sonic.

Amy called in.

Amy: Blue Typhoon to X-Tornado! Chris, do you read me?

Chris: I read you.

Amy: I just got a radio message from Knuckles. He says Tails, Y/n, Chaos, Star, and Cosmo are trapped in a cave somewhere, and he can't get through to them!

Back underground.

The group was walking ahead.

Tails: You know, I gotta upgrade this thing when we get outta here. Like maybe add some type of software that allows you to cut through Subterranean rock formations.

Cosmo: Uh-huh.

Tails: I mean, it sure would make it a lot easier to find hidden Chaos Emeralds.

Chaos: Who needs better software when you got a chaos creature?

Tails: You're good at tracking, we can't send digitized contact signals to and from wherever we might be.

Chaos: That's true.

Cosmo: Mother would know what to do.

Tails: Cosmo? You okay?

Cosmo: Uh-huh. Just daydreaming.

Star: Hey, Chaos, can you tell us a fact about the Thunderhogs? The ones you've told me so far we're pretty interesting.

Chaos: Okay. It is Thunderhog tradition for the males in the Thunderhog Clan to marry at 16 years old when they find the woman they love.

Tails: Wait, isn't Y/n 16 this year.

Chaos: That is right. Lord Y/n is at a marrying age.

Star: I see. (Thinking: If I were to confess to Y/n and he feels the same, would he want me to be his wife?!)

A bunch of fireflies came out of nowhere.

Tails: Hey, look, guys! Like some kind of fireflies or something.

Star: Whatever they are, they sure are something.

The fireflies all went ahead of them.

Chaos: Strange. I was picking up a hint of chaos energy from those fireflies.

Cosmo: I wonder where they're going?

Tails: Yeah! Let's follow 'em.

The fireflies lead them to some type of factory.

Outside.

Knuckles was using the Shovel Claws to try and dig through the rocks blocking the cave.

Knuckles: There's a whole Avalanche worth of rocks here. Something must have jarred them all loose.

Everyone else was above the ravine.

Amy: Just listen to him in there, showing off with those big, silly claws of his.

Cream: say what you will, but I have faith in Knuckles. You should too.

Helen: Especially since he's really the one that's doing the heavy lifting.

Chris got out some kind of digital map.

Chris: I'm using the infrared movement tracker, but I can't seem to get a reading from anywhere. It looks like a system of inter-connected caves, and I'm guessing there must be more than one way down there.

Amy: So while Knuckles is busy bbouldering, we can snoop around for a bit.

Cream: Let's hurry. It must be awful spooky in that place. I don't like to think of them down there.

Spark: Don't worry, Cream. Your brother, Star and Chaos are very capable.

Helen: Yeah, I know they won't let anything like a spooky cave slow them down.

Cream: You're right.

Helen: Oh, I almost forgot. I think I might have somebody to help us track them down.

Underground.

The group went into the factory and saw it was crawling with serpent like Metarex with huge spears.

Cosmo: This is a nightmare.

Tails: I think we're both having the same bad dream.

Tails looked at his comlink.

Tails: The Chaos Emerald is located somewhere in this complex.

Chaos: I can sense it up ahead. Should we take out the guards?

Y/n: No, it'll attract too much unwanted attention. Let's wait them out.

The guards went into different sections and when Y/n saw that, he signal the others to follow him. This kept going until they made it to a room where they saw the white Chaos Emerald in some kind of tank with a bunch of other Chaos Emeralds around it in similar tanks.

Cosmo: A whole room full of Emeralds.

Chaos: I can tell that the one in the big tank is the only real one. They must be using the power from real Chaos Emeralds to make their fake ones.

Tails: this explains of the counterfeit one that Metarex had on Planet Breezy!

Cosmo: (gasp) You're right! It looks so real, it fooled all of us.

Star: It was even able to fool Chaos, a Chaos creature.

Cosmo: And now there's a whole Factory full of them. Why would they be doing this?

Y/n: My guess is so they can have more Chaos Emeralds for their army.

Tails: It's weird, but if I can hack into their computer system somehow, we just may be able to find an actual answer.

Tails began to hack into their computers and it showed some kind of code.

Tails: Some kind of strange code... I can't decipher it.

Y/n: Neither can I. It seems to be from a different planet.

Cosmo: It says here, Operation Duplicate, with a list of key Chaos Emerald components.

Star: And specially modified tanks to put them together and to hold the new Emeralds powers.

Cosmo: Let's see... Stabilizing energy, 93% compression rate, distillation of properties...

Tails: You mean you can read this?

Cosmo: Only some.

Star: It's not too dissimilar from our native language.

Cosmo: But I'm not all that familiar with a lot of the more technical data. Wish I could help more.

Star: Me too.

Tails: You helped a lot, Cosmo! Now let's download this information right away.

Star: But...

Y/n put a hand on Star's shoulder.

Y/n: I think you helped just as much.

Star blushed a little. Meanwhile, Tails began downloading the data.

Tails: We'll look at the data when we get back to the Blue Typhoon. Will you help me translate?

Cosmo: Sure! I'd love to. It's the least I can do after this mess I've gotten you into.

Tails: But Cosmo, we wouldn't have discovered all of this if it weren't for you.

Star: Tails is right. You need to quit being so hard on yourself, sis.

???: Intruders!

A serpent Metarex slithered in.

Tails: Cosmo! Get the real Emerald!

Cosmo ran to the tank.

Serpent Metarex: I will teach you not to trespass. You're not wanted here. Stay away from there!

Cosmo was able to get the Emerald as Y/n jumped in.

Y/n: Get back.

Y/n shot lightning at the Metarex, electrocuting it.

Y/n: Let's go!

Y/n used his none Chaos hand to grab Star's and run off with Tails and Cosmo as sirens began to ring.

Star: How are we gonna get out?!

Y/n: Chaos, when we were in there, did you exorb enough energy?

Chaos: I should have enough for a one transformation.

Tails: What's he talking about?

Y/n: Everyone, get behind me.

Tails and Cosmo ran right behind Y/n as the group was nearing a wall.

Cosmo: We're gonna run through a wall?!

Y/n: Chaos, now!

Perfect Chaos' head jumped out of Y/n's bracelet and blasted a hole in the wall, which they all jumped through. They hid behind some rocks.

Cosmo: I hate to say it, guys, but I think the Emerald is leading them right to us.

Tails: I've got a plan.

He showed his hands had a bunch of those weird fireflies.

Tails: I knew there was something funny about these fireflies.

Cosmo: What do you mean?

Tails: They're tiny robots powered by the energy of Chaos Emeralds. Same components and everything.

Y/n: And just for extra assurance. I'll spread a bit of Chaos' own energy.

Y/n swiped his arm and it released smaller blue spheres into the air.

Cosmo: Tails, you're a genius!

Tails: (blushing) Heh.

Y/n: I guess his idea was more genius than mine.

Star: Don't say that. I thought your plan was pure genius and good use of your resourcefulness.

Y/n: (blushing) Thank you.

They were eventually on the move again.

Tails: We'll be safe now that we threw off the Metarex. And we'll be out of here in no time!

Cosmo: Sure.

Star: Chaos, what was that thing you did back in the factory?

Chaos: See, I've been absorbing a little bit of the our Emeralds' energy and I got a little bit of those fake Chaos Emeralds energy. The small amounts of energy aren't enough for permit or long lasting transformations, but it was enough to get us out.

Y/n: It's something I thought of trying before that dumb ass Sonic lost the Emeralds.

Cosmo: Well, I trust we'll be okay. The light, it reminds me of how Mother made me feel. Like nothing bad could happen. It's just so bright, and warm, and loving.

Tails: Yeah, I guess Chaos Emeralds have that effect on folks. Ya know, it's kind of interesting. You could be in the worst kind of danger, but once you hold a Chaos Emerald in your hand, you feel a lot safer.

Cosmo: When I was a young girl, my oldest sister Galaxina used to tell me and Star the legend of the Chaos Emeralds. And I... I used to dream that one day, I would hold one in my hand, and feel all of its magical power.

Tails: A power that is greatest when it's used by those who are pure of heart and intention.

Cosmo: I don't understand.

Tails: It's power depends on those who use it, you see. Like Sonic or Y/n, for instance. Sonic and Y/n use it for good, so only good can come of it. But then there are those, like the Metarex or Dr. Eggman, who use it for purposes of evil. That's when the power turns into something dark and destructive.

Star: So, basically it's like a physical form of karma?

Y/n: Pretty much.

Chaos: Yeah. And to be honest, before I met Lord Y/n, I also had evil intentions until Lord Y/n set me straight.

Cosmo stopped walking making the others stop, too.

Tails: Huh? What's the matter?

Cosmo: Oh, Tails. I'm not worthy to be touching the Chaos Emerald. Please take it away from me.

Tails took the Emerald.

Tails: Why, Cosmo?

Cosmo: Because my soul is filled up with nothing but sadness and hatred. Hatred for those monsters who destroyed my planet. And took away mine and Star's family, and our friends... and everything else that was precious, and left us all alone. There is no way any good comes from me. I will only bring you evil and disaster.

Tails: Cosmo...

Star: Sister, do not say such things about yourself.

Cosmo: Star, you know as well as I do that your the only one between us that has any good. I'm just a waste of space.

Chaos: Finally, she's understanding.

Y/n: Chaos! Look, Cosmo, it's normal to have hatred for your enemies.

Cosmo: How would you know?

Y/n: Because... I too was once full of hatred. Not for an enemy, but for the entire world. See, I was once the most dangerous criminal in all of Mobius.

Star/Cosmo: What?!

Cosmo looked terrified while Star summoned big roots.

Star: What did you do?

Y/n: I was once the most feared and wanted serial killer in all of Mobius. It started eight years ago. I lost my Father, the most important person in my life. I thought someone in my village had a part in it, so I took it out on all of my village. After realizing it wasn't my village, I thought it was someone else.

Star: So, you thought you were justified to kill so many?!

Y/n: No, I didn't. I always thought I was beyond forgiveness, but there were people like Chris, Cream, Helen and Tails that gave me a second chance. I believed it was a mistake, so I decided to dedicate my life to making sure it wasn't a mistake. People may see me as this idealistic hero with no flaws, but my hatred was my biggest flaw. If it weren't for the people I now call my friends, I'd still be walking that dark path. I'm sure that all that trust and fondness you and Cosmo had in me is all gone, but even if you no longer consider me a friend or even someone that can be trusted, I will not give up on trying to stop the Metarex.

Star: What?! But aren't you just doing this to save your own planet?

Y/n: At first, my planet's safety was a top priority for me, but now my priority is to save the galaxy and to help you avenge your clan. I will not give up no matter what. If the Metarex rip my arms off, I'll kick them dead. If they rip my legs off, I'll bite them dead. If they rip off my head, I'll stare them dead. If they gouge out my eyes, I'll curse them dead. No matter the challenge, a Thunderhog should always fight for what's right til the very end.

Cosmo: So noble.

Tails: That's just Y/n. Despite everything he's done in the past, he's determined to make it right.

Star's face was a full blush at that moment.

Star: (blushing) Whoa. I- I love you!

Tails/Cosmo: Huh?!

Y/n blushed as he felt something strike his heart.

Star: (blushing) (Thinking: Dammit! Did I say it too soon?!)

Y/n: (blushing) Is that true?

Star: (blushing) Uhh.

Tails suddenly got smacked with the tail of a serpent Metarex, knocking the Emerald out of his hands and making him hit the wall.

Cosmo/Y/n/Star: Tails!

Cosmo ran to Tails said and Y/n and Star got in front of both defensively as the Metarex picked up the Chaos Emerald.

Tails: Give that back!

Serpent Metarex: I'm afraid that is not possible.

Cosmo: Forget it, Tails. We have to get out of here, now! I'm begging you.

Serpent Metarex: (evil laugh) Perhaps you should listen to your little friend.

Y/n: I'm not scared of you, asshole's.

Serpent Metarex: You should be. This may not be many now, but we've got reinforcements on the way.

They were surrounded.

Tails: Okay. I guess all you Meta-mutants think you're pretty tough, don'tcha? Well, we're pretty tough, too! And we've got good on our side, which is more than you can say.

Cosmo: Tails, don't do it.

Tails: There's nothing to be afraid of.

Y/n: Tails, stay down. I'll handle them.

Tails: I've got it!

Tails flew at a Metarex and hit it, making it drop the Emerald.

Tails: Now, Cosmo!

Cosmo ran for the Emerald.

Serpent Metarex: Stay away from that Emerald!

Tails flew at the Metarex, but it caught him with its tail.

Tails: Let go of me, let go!

Cosmo got the Emerald.

Cosmo: Oh, no, Tails!

Serpent Metarex: I've had enough of your foolishness.

Y/n charged a Thunder Jab.

Y/n: Thunder Jab!

Y/n pierced the Metarex's chest and it drop Tails.

Tails: Thanks, Y/n.

The other Metarex surrounded Cosmo, but were all swept away by big roots made by Star.

Star: Hands off my sister!

The Metarex Y/n jabbed slowly got up.

Serpent Metarex: Uh... This means nothing, we still got reinforcements on the way.

Y/n heard rumbling and gave a small smirk.

Y/n: What a coincidence, so do we.

Sonic jumped in with a Spindash with the others not far behind.

Y/n: How'd you find us.

Chris: Helen helped. She gave us a chip that would allow us to track the electrical forces that surround Thunderhogs.

Spark: So, we followed your location here.

Star: They say they have reinforcements on the way.

Y/n: Well, now that my uncle is here we have the perfect move deal with that. The upside of this move is that it can take out lots of enemies in a single second.

Chris: What's the down side?

Y/n: It takes time to charge up. So, we need you to buy us some time.

Helen: We can handle that.

Sonic Spindash a bunch of Metarex.

Serpent Metarex: Who dares help the enemy?

Amy: I dare!

Amy hit a Metarex into the wall with her hammer. Then Cream and Cheese flew in and Spindashed a dozen. Then Chris shot two down with a laser gun and Helen kicked three in the head, blowing their heads off.

Helen: (flips back hair) Get on our level.

Tails: See, Cosmo? Nothing but good can come when you help your friends.

Cosmo: Right.

More Metarex showed up.

Amy: These must be the reinforcements.

Y/n: Luckily, we're all charged up.

Spark: Get back! This move is so fast, not even we can control our speed.

They all got behind Y/n and Spark.

Serpent Metarex: So, they're going to let a cheap Hedgehog knock-off and a useless old man fight us alone?

Spark raised his right arm in the air.

Spark: Crimson Thunder power!

Crimson red lightning came out of Spark's hand as Y/n raised his left arm.

Y/n: Navy Thunder power!

Navy blue lightning came out of Y/n's hand.

Y/n/Spark: Twin Lightning Rush!

At speeds faster than the eye can see, Y/n and Spark destroyed every Metarex, leaving the others in awe.

Helen: These two are incredible.

Chris: I'll say.

Cream: That's my big brother and uncle!

Cheese: Chao chao!

Tails and Cosmo flew to Y/n with the Emerald.

Cosmo: Y/n, catch!

Y/n caught the Chaos Emerald.

Y/n: Got it! Everyone, hold on! Chaos Control!

Y/n used Chaos Control to teleport everyone back to the Blue Typhoon.

Chaos: Thanks for the safe, guys.

Tails: Oh, we were able to get something on the Metarex while we were down there.

Tails gave his comlink to Chris who looked over the data.

Chris: Ya know, I have a feeling whatever's on here might help us put an end to their Planet Egg plot once and for all.

Cream: Maybe the code will tell us where all the Planet Eggs are hidden, and we can save the galaxy.

Cheese: Chao chao!

Amy: That's right! Good thing we have our brilliant translators with us.

Cosmo: Well, thanks Amy, but... I feel like I put you all in danger today.

Tails: That's silly. Plus, we're used to dangerous situations by now.

Cream: Danger is our middle name!

Cheese: Chao chao!

Y/n: I told everyone well in advance about the dangers, but everyone here was willing to take the risk.

Chris: Well, let's get going you, guys.

Amy: We've still got plenty of Metarex to mangle.

Tails: That's right. And thanks to our friend Cosmo this time we'll be way ahead of 'em. Right, gang?

Everyone: Yeah!

Knuckles came out of the ground.

Y/n: Knuckles? What were you doing Underground?

Knuckles: Trying to find you.

Chaos: Well, we're here.

Y/n: Get out of there and let's get going.

Star: Y/n, there's something I want to talk to you about alone.

Y/n: Okay.

Elsewhere.

Green Spruce walked to Dark Oak and bowed.

Green Spruce: Master, the fools took our bait.

Dark Oak: Good. Soon they and that fool Eggman will be back clutching Chaos Emeralds in their greedy little hands. And then, when they least expect it, I'll strike! How perfect. One day, they will know the true extent of my power. But by then, it will be too late.

Green Spruce: What about the Thunderhogs?

Dark Oak: As promised, you may have them all to yourself.

Green Spruce: Good, because I think I might have found out the brats weakness.

In the Blue Typhoon's storage space.

Y/n: So, is this talk about earlier?

Star: Yes.

Star let out a small sigh.

Star: When I said I loved you, I meant it. (blushing) You're so brave, smart, kind and understanding. It doesn't help that I also find you to be quite handsome. It's okay if you don't feel the same way, I just thought you should know.

Y/n: Well, I love you, too.

Star: (blushing) Really?

Y/n: (blushing) Yeah. Your the most kind, caring, strong and beautiful woman I've ever met. I love how you look after your sister and how you take care of Cream and Cheese. With all honesty I have, I'd say anyone would be honored to be the one you love. But tell me, are you really okay with someone like me?

Star: Nobody's perfect. You were hurting back then. And I'm sure it took a lot of courage just for you to tell me. So yes. But I have a question, if I were too kiss you, would it be your first kiss?

Y/n: Let me think.

He quickly ran off, used lightning to burn his mouth and used Chaos to heal it, then ran back.

Y/n: Yes.

Star: Why did you run off?

Y/n: No reason. Now, I know it that we just confessed, but there's a big question I'm gonna ask. Though, I'm sure you already know what it is.

Star: (blushing) No, go ahead and ask.

Y/n took a deep sigh, grabbed Stars hand and got on one knee while blushing really hard.

Y/n: (blushing) Star of the Seedrian Clan, will you take me, Y/n Thunderhog, head of the Thunderhog Clan, as your lawfully devoted husband? I promise, I'll protect you and make you happy any chance I get.

Star cried tears of joy.

Star: (blushing) Yes!

Star hugged Y/n.

Star: I promise, (sniff) I'll take care of you and make you happy, too!

Y/n held her bridal style.

Y/n: You accepting my proposal has already made me happier than I ever could've hoped.

Star: There's still one thing we have to do.

The two shared a lovely first kiss. It lasted a minute before they broke apart blushing.

Star: (blushing) So, how was it?

Y/n: It was better than I ever imagined.

Y/n put her down.

Y/n: I gotta go tell Cream the news.

Star: Me too, with my sister.

They went there separate ways and Star saw Amy and Cosmo hiding behind some boxes.

Star: How much did you hear?

Amy: Pretty much all of it.

Cosmo hugged Star.

Cosmo: Sister, I'm so happy for you.

Star hugged back.

Star: Thanks, sis.

Y/n also found Cream, Cheese Helen and Spark spying on them.

Y/n: I assume you heard pretty much all of that.

Helen: Yep.

Spark ruffled Y/n's quills.

Spark: That's my boy. Hold on to that one, she's a keeper.

Cream and Cheese hugged Y/n tighter than they ever had before.

Cream: We're so happy for you, big brother.

Cheese: Chao chao.

Y/n: Thanks. Now, how should I tell Mother?
