Sally Acorn.

As everyone started to talk about what to do next
Sally: You thought of everything right, Nicole?
Nicole: I am the most advanced A.I. there is
Suddenly missiles were shot at the force field and Nicole started to disappear
Sally and Serena: Nicole!
Nicole: Do not worry. I am fine. Really. I just have to reroute that power that would support my holographic form to the shields. Doctor Robotnik is not holding back with his barrage.
Nicole's lower half was now completely gone
Sally: Nicole... That's not fair! You've given us so much and you can't even keep your body long.
Serena: if only there was a way for the shield to stay up and for you to keep a body
Nicole: We can always discuss that another time but even when I'm not physically here I'll always be around. I'll always be near
Nicole completely disappeared and Sally tried not to cry
Sonic: What now?
Sally: I trust Nicole to keep us safe for a good while. We're all too rattled from the invasion to do much right now.
Elias: If we could do much of anything right now anyway.
Serena: I say we wait until those air ships run out of cannon fire.
Sonic: And then?
Serena: Hopefully Eggman brave enough to show his face.
Nicole: I agree. In the meantime everyone should go out and find their new homes
David held Martha's hand
David: Keep your loved ones close to you and be thankful we have them again.
They both looked at Serena
David: As for you, Serena. You need rest.
Serena: But I-
Martha: Eggman almost killed you.
Sally: That's an order.
Sonic laughed a little bit and Serena glared at him
Serena: You're enjoying this aren't you?
Sonic: Hey I didn't say anything.
Serena: Alright I'll go get some rest.
There was another explosion in the distance
Serena: Should be easy with a bunch of missiles currently hitting the force felid.
She headed towards her new home but then saw doctors bandaging Rotor and ran up to him
Serena: Rotor! Are you-?
Rotor: I'm fine. Doctor Quack says I'll be up and around after some therapy.
Serena: ...Did this happen when you saved me?
Rotor: Don't blame yourself. I got to be the hero in action for once, you know?
Serena: I guess that's true...
Rotor was taken to the new hospital. Then Serena saw Bunnie and Antoine sitting on a tree
Serena: Room for one more?
Bunnie: By all means!
Serena stretched her robot arm to climb and sit by the two of them
Serena: It looks almost the exact same from the old city.
Bunnie: I wouldn't know since I joined the Freedom Fighters later on but I sho is a sight to behold.
They both noticed Antoine wouldn't let go of the tree log
Antoine: Eet would be even nicer if Robotnik would stop blastering ze shield.
Serena: That's what I said! But I'm just trying to relax before we get back into the action. Which wasn't easy for me back then.
Bunnie: I was a lil farm girl for the longest while.
Antoine: Oui and I w-was ze crowding craven
Bunnie pulled Antoine next to her
Bunnie: 'Craven coward', Sugar-Twan. And I always known you to be brave deep down
Antoine: Et tu positif?
Bunnie: Sho am. You think I'd married you other wise?
Serena: Sally wouldn't have let you come on all those missions. You even inspired me to make this upgrade remember?
Her robot arm became a sword
Antoine: Yes but it will not beat ze original.
Serena's robot arm turned back to normal
Serena: We've come so far. Which is why this will be Eggman's last attack.
Bunnie: I like the way you think! But how can you be so sure?
Serena just glared at Bunnie then got off the tree and walked away
Bunnie: You don't think she wants to...
Antoine: Mon Dieu...

Meanwhile Eggman was in his giant robot punching the force field
Eggman: Come out and face me!! You stole that city from me! It's mine! Stop hiding behind your stupid shield and fight me! Or are you too scared?! I conquered and destroyed your first city! I toyed with Serena as you built your little forest getaway! Then burned it to the ground! I'VE TERRORIZED THE LOT OF YOU FOR ALL YOUR PITIFUL LIVES!
He shot missiles at the shield but it still didn't do anything
Eggman: YOU CANNOT ROB ME OF MY FINAL VICTORY! I WON'T ALLOW IT! NOW GET OUT OF HERE SO I CAN CONQUER YOU AGAIN!
Serena just walked right outside the city
Serena: Hey Eggman! Are you finished whining like the child you are or do you actually want to fight?!
Eggman landed his robot right in front of her
Eggman: We meet again, Serena! But you were a fool to come here alone! Did you forget what happened last time that happened? This battle suit was specifically designed to over power you, Sonic or anyone else who tries to face me!
Serena: Here's the thing Egghead. I'm not alone!
All of the Freedom Fighters were suddenly behind her
Sally: Freedom Fighters! Attack!
Sonic: I like this plan!
Everyone took out Eggman's robot army together.
Serena: You're about to see my latest upgrade up close.
Her robot arm became a blaster cannon and she aimed it at Eggman's robot armor.
Serena: Tails!
Tails grabbed Serena's other hand and flew into the air
Serena: Say goodbye to your life Eggman!!
She fired a laser right through the robot's chest leaving a giant hole
Eggman: No!
Amy hit her hammer on the robots leg causing it to fall over
Sonic: You said all this was a game to you, Eggman
Tails and Serena landed back on the ground then her robot arm went back to normal
Eggman tried to get the robot to stand up but it didn't work
Eggman: No!!
Sonic spin dashed into the glass and Eggman fell onto the grass
Sonic: Well game on, Butt-Nik
Eggman: You won't get away with this-!!
Suddenly Serena grabbed him by the neck with her robot arm.
Serena: ENOUGH! I'm ending this war! Right here! Right now!
Sonic: Wait! Don't do this, Serena! You're better than he is! He's had enough!
Serena: After all he's done?! We're supposed to just let him go?!
Sally: He'll remember he lost.
Serena thought about it and then dropped Eggman.
Eggman: You're really going to pass your only opportunity to stop me?! You'll never get this chance again!
Serena: You're pathetic you know that? Ready to die rather than accept defeat? No. You'll live... But only because I let you. A psychopathic, worthless, good for nothing, wasteful, failure.
Serena's eyes turned back to green while Eggman just glared at her.
Sally: Eggman, you are trespassing on royal grounds. As princess I order you to retreat back to New Megaopolis.
At that moment Nicole appeared next to Sally
Nicole: My friends are showing you more mercy than you deserve, Doctor. I highly suggest you retreat before Serena changes her mind.
Eggman started flying away on a small robot
Eggman: You'll regret this you miserable vermin! I was just toying with you before! Now it's war! I will annihilate you all!
Eventually he was completely gone
Serena: You keep telling yourself that, Eggman.
Sonic put a hand on her shoulder
Sonic: You okay, Cuz?
Serena: Sonic... I'm sorry. I was just going through so much.
Sonic: It's all good. It's good to be home.
