Plot Synopsis
► Show Spoiler
Shortly following his first journey across South Island, Sonic the Hedgehog relishes in the peaceful aftermath of his encounter with Dr. Ivo Robotnik.
Some time relaxing later though, he opens one eye to find no sign of any of his flicky friends... Before he let that thought linger, the hedgehog hears something swoosh by, looking to only see Dr. Robotnik chasing after his new friend, Miles "Tails" Prower!
Try as he might, Sonic could only catch up just in time to see the mad doctor snatch his buddy and take off, only leaving a note written by the
diabolical doctor behind, taunting the hedgehog that he is holding Tails hostage in the Crystal Egg Zone in exchange for the six Chaos Emeralds!
The note also remarks that Robotnik has built a new series of robots that is awaiting to destroy the hedgehog at every turn of the island, called "Master Robots"...
After reading the note, Sonic sets out to thwart Dr. Robotnik's scheme and save his friend!
