Episode 50

Previously on Sonic The Hedgehog - Chaos on Mobius...
When Jet won the final round of the EX World Grand Prix, he used his prize -the seven Chaos Emeralds- to raise the fabled Babylon Garden from where it was sealed within the Great Desert! Anticipating this, Eggman snatched the cube Jet used, and flew towards the newly floating island.
While all three Babylon Rogues chased after Eggman, the Chaos Emeralds were left unattended, allowing Shade to take them without any difficulty!
Will Jet, Wave and Storm keep Eggman from taking the treasure of Babylon? And what does Shade plan to do with the Chaos Emeralds? Find out next on Sonic The Hedgehog - Chaos on Mobius!

Chapter Twenty Nine: The Nocturnus Babylonians

As Jet chased after Eggman, Shade was slowly scaling Icecap on Angel Island with all seven Chaos Emeralds within a bag. Little did she know that two armored Mobians were already at the mountain's peak... and they were crossing swords!
"Gawain, will you just listen to me?" Yelled Galahad. "Percival was right! Since we all went our seperate ways, Mercia has been reduced to a wasteland!"
"I fail to see your point, Galahad!" Gawain replied as he swung his twin swords around him, denying Galahad access to his chestplate. "As I recall, the Kingdom of Mercia was a wasteland since that fiend Dr. Eggman attacked!"
"The kingdom is even worse off now than when we first seperated! Overlanders have been denied entry into the kingdom!" This made Gawain think... until Shade reached the top of the mountain.
"And who might you be?" He asked her. She didn't answer. But a flash of pink light was seen from the mountaintop. And it was clear enough for TodStar and Bunnie to see...
"Oh mah stars. Did y'all see that?" She asked. TodStar didn't answer. He just raced towards the mountain, while Bunnie began to catch up to him...

The light was seen within Babylon Zepplin, aswell...
"Hey Wave, check out that light!" Storm said to the swallow.
"Not now, Storm!" She angrily replied. "We have to help Jet catch Eggman before he reaches Babylon Garden!" Their blimp was still pretty far away from Jet, who was hot on Eggman's heels!
"You're not getting away from me, Eggman!" He yelled angrily.
"Gah hahaha! You maybe the Legendary Wind Master, but I've spent over 10 years fighting someone who can run at the speed of sound!" Bragged Eggman. "You're never going to catch me!"
"Oh? Did you forget what I pulled off in the Final Round?" Jet asked with a smirk on his face. This made Eggman turn his head back to see that Jet was closing fast, thanks to his Feather Fans!
"N-n-no! Stay back!" Eggman cried, but Jet had already rammed him, and caught the cube!

Eggman soon crashed onto Babylon Garden and was knocked out, while Jet arrived at the doors of the center palace with the cube in hand.
"We did it, Pop..." He said to himself as Wave and Storm arrived in front of the doors, behind Jet. "...we finished what you started."
"Uhh, boss?" Storm asked, making Jet turn to face the two.
"What're you waiting for?" Added Wave.
"Hmph. Nothing, now that you guys are here." Jet replied. "Let's get this door open!" Jet then raised the cube above his head, making dust fall off of the doors as they slowly opened.

As light glared through the door, Jet, Wave and Storm were amazed to see an entire room filled with gold and jewels! But there was also a dark chamber that the three of them moved closer to. As soon as they flew into the chamber on their boards, the doors to the chamber closed behind them, and two bird-like Mobian holograms appeared before them. One was a brown owl (who looked quite crazy!) with a staff, wearing a purple coat, red gloves, a black belt and black boots with red on the end. The other was a brown vulture wearing goggles, a white lab coat and green boots. Both holograms were laughing at the sight of Jet, Wave and Storm.
"What's so funny?" Jet asked.
"*chuckle* You are our decendants?" Said the owl in disbelief. "How humiliating!" This made Jet a little angry...
"You know what, Lord Talon?" Asked the vulture. "I think that intelligence seems to have lowered with each generation!" While that comment made both holograms laugh, it made Wave angry.
"Why you..." She scolwed.
"And as for the fat one-" Said the owl.
"Hey! I'm not fat!" Storm inturrupted. "It's these feathers. And my muscles."
"Muscular indeed." Said the vulture. "But you'll need more than brute strength to stop our BabylonBorgs!" Suddenly, the area was changed from a black and blue void, to a haunted world, and millions of bird robots appeared, with two of them grabbing Wave!
"Wave!" Jet cried, before some robots came to take him, but Storm knocked them out of the way.
"I'll hold 'em off, boss!" He said as more robots pounced on him. "You go get Wave!" Storm managed to smash his way out of the robots while Jet went after the holograms that taken Wave.

Jet was swerving his way past every robot that he saw, eventually making his way to an unconscious Wave lying on the ground.
"Wave!" He yelled before kneeling down to her. Suddenly, Wave kicked Jet in the stomach! "What's gotten into you?" His question was answered when he heard the voice of the owl laughing, coming out of Wave's beak! "You?"
"Allow me to introduce myself..." Said the owl as he made Wave bow before Jet. "I am Talon, the very first leader of the Babylon Rogues of the Sol Zone. And now that I have taken control of your friend's body, I am slowly taking her life energy away from her." This information shocked Jet! "Once it's all gone, she'll die. Then you and your idiotic friend are next!"
"Not on my watch, buddy!" Jet yelled as he jumped back on his board and charged at Talon, but he vanished, taking Wave with him. Suddenly, Jet heard a something coming from behind him. It was a fire dart, but he avoided it by batting it back to Talon with his Feather Fans!

"Hmm... interesting. But let's see you blow this back at me!" Talon challenged as he released a beam of darkness at Jet. Jet did the unthinkable, and used his Feather Fans to charge towards the beam! The beam actually did nothing to him, but he did manage to ram into Talon, making his consciousness leave Wave's body. As Jet picked Wave up, he saw capsules with the same owl and vulture they met earlier.
"Storm, smash those capsules!" He shouted.
"You got it!" Storm replied as he rammed into the capsules' life support systems, shutting them down. With an unconscious Wave in hand, Jet and Storm noticed the haunted world disappear, making them return to the chamber where they met Talon and his vuture lackey.

"Huh. I guess we did all that for nothin'..." Jet stated as Wave awakened.
"Uhh... Jet?" She asked as she awakened in Jet's arms. "What happened? I can't remember a thing..."
"Boss, take a look at this!" Storm shouted as he revealed a treasure chest of some sort. When he opened it, he found a few things within it...
"What's in there, Storm?" Asked Jet. Before Storm could pull anything out though, two blasters were aimed at the three. Those blasters were held by Eggman!
"Heh heh. Too awestruck by the treasure to notice me, eh?" He asked.
"Eggman!" Exclaimed Wave and Storm, as Jet took a look at what was inside.
"Now hand over the treasure, bird brains!" Eggman ordered them. Jet took one look at something in the chest, and chuckled at the doctor. "...what's so funny? Hand over the treasure right now!"
"Okay, catch!" Jet replied as he threw something Eggman's way. Dropping both blasters, Eggman caught what Jet had thrown.
"Haaah hahaha! The treasure of Babylon is finally mine!" He cheered, before realizing what he had caught... "A piece of cloth? I went to the trouble of holding the World Grand Prix for- for this? I-I can't believe I wasted my time for this piece of junk!" After that, Eggman suddenly fainted, which was when Orbot and Cubot started dragging him out of the chamber.
"I had a feeling this was all a waste of time..." Orbot said while Cubot was saying something so fast, that no normal person could understand.

"Hey, there's some scrolls in here." Jet pointed out as he gave them to Wave.
"Wow... Jet, these scrolls have the entire history of the ancient Babylonians!" She told him as she took a quick look at one.
"Hey, there's something else in here..." Said Storm, pulling out a ring-shaped stone with green markings on its flat side.
"Huh. I wonder what this thing is..." Jet said as he took it from Storm.
"Hmm... according to one of these scrolls, it's called an Ark of the Cosmos." Wave told them. Before anyone could say anything, the stone suddenly made the three of them float in mid-air!
"Whoa! I'm loving this thing already!" Jet said he used the stone's power to make all three of them blast out of Babylon Garden, where they saw a purple light atop of Angel Island.

At that moment, TodStar and Bunnie were struggling to climb up the mountain, as the light was blinding them. At the top of the mountain, both Gawain and Galahad were unconscious, as Shade threw all seven Chaos Emeralds up into the air.
"Now, our people can return to Mobius at last..." She said as the Chaos Emeralds circled above her, creating portals all over Mobius. These portals dropped creatures with armor similar to Shade's, only the marks were shining blue lights. "...and The Nocturnus Invasion can begin!"
