Knuckles: So you guys finally decided to show up as well? How did you guys even managed to escape the twilight zone?
Knuckles states as he looks at the enchindas making their way towards the monsters sieging the city while he himself bashes them apart the disfigured monsters with his gauntlets. A enchinda wearing a a pair of silvery golden armor and two warp rings comes behind and says.
???: Of course we did, It was not hard when the Great blade Argus cut the dimensional barrier for us. *Grabs a small small monster and ripped it apart with his hands.* You must be the last guardian Knuckles.
Knuckles: *throws a giant piece of the road at the horde* Yup, and you are?
Eugune: Eugune, one of the few survivors who managed to escape the slaughter by the other races. Luckily We got saved.
From the side a bunch of giant crystal like beings in heavy came and charges at the hordes like berserkers while Voxai and Kron beings can be seen fighting in the distance.
Eugene: The King of avalon definately has some connections, for a the Highest Guardian to themself come to recruit the other four race in exchange for a escape from the twilight zone is something we didn't expect. It seems we will get it done soon.
Knuckles: *gives Eugene a little knock on the helmet* It's just beginning, these are just the scouts and mere 1% if what Sonic said is right.. the real deals have not even set foot here. What about n'rrgal tho?
Eugene: Drafted straight to frontlines, they said the energy there is enough to last them for eternity and they needed someone like them to eat that away,so n'rrgal happyily went with them.
Just as Eugene finished speaking, hundreds of portals, each much bigger than previous ones appears. If the first one were scouts now came the infantry. The Amys come from the side covered in black tar like blood and finally took a few seconds of rest after seeing Knuckles.

Sonic: You think running will save your a** from me? *Looks at Sonic° and nods* Time to get serious.
He brings out the seven emeralds all much stronger than before, Sonic and Sonic° formed a link with emeralds. Sonic° enters hyper mode as his quills turn white while Sonic Golden armor began glowing like the sun while yellow strips on heat and energy begins hovering behind him.
They lower their postures and shot towards Delargte who brought out a whip, with a swipe the whip extends to kilometres in length and hits the ground straight, leaving behind a deep crevice running along the centre of the city.
Breaking through the corrupted space under the radiance of Sonic's power, the duo dodges multiple hits from the whip before arriving at Delargte's front, they cut his torso only to see it regenerate right before their eyes and then got hit by a literal meteor Delargte summoned.
Sonic brings out argus and severs the meteor into two before swaping it with Oberon, the Corruption becomes it's food and converted to chaos energy.
Sonic: You should have hid like a cockroach for another century or so, good for me you don't have the patience for that.
Delargte: Prideful as always, Two can plan this game of speed. *His posture lowers and he launched himself towards the duo* i will give you the same death I gave to Wisdom.
Sonic parries a claw attack before Sonic° circles around and hits Delargte in the back, Sonic dives in and delivers a strong slash with Oberon followed by a dozens of light blades from Excalibur, Oberon rips away a huge amount of Chaos force from the Delargte and used it to strengthen Sonic even more.
Just as they were bombarding Delargte with attacks, Sonic quickly stopped his offense and closes the distance between him and Sonic and quickly swaps for argus. He Severs a dark spear coming through a portal that was headed for Sonic°.
Sonic: that regeneration is annoying and you can't leave my surroundings.. *looks at Delargte who is gaining distance* We need to find a way to remove those disadvantages.
Argus: How about you get that boy use that double boost thing, get even faster?
Sonic°: That could work, should we try?
Sonic: We have got no option. *Looks below to see the monsters fighting like crazy with no care for life* We have to kill him faster.
They both begins flying towards Delargte who just looks at them menacingly, the duo takes a deep breath and activated Double Boost.
A flash was all Delargte saw but he had already dodged to the side, tens, hundreds and thousands of slashes came at his way but he dodged them with minimal movement with moving a inch.
He slowly opens his eye while Sonic moving like blur felt a unbelievable amount of rage inside him erupt. Delargte's right eye looked like a rhombus of yellow colour place upon a black cloth, it has a thin pointed oval like pupil of red colour.
Sonic: I... AM GONNA- *almost lost his logic to rage* Change of plans, we have to hold him here.
Delargte: You have gotten weaker.. Where is that warlord alone standing against the fallens?*The right eye spins as the world halts in its place* To become so pathetic that you can't even touch me.
In the frozen colourless space, Delargte slowly floats to the duo who seems to be unable to move, he puts his hand on Sonic's forehead and shakes his head in pity.
Delargte: I wish you would have joined me instead, With divinity you would have had enough power to lead us to victory. *Flicks his finger and Sonic's head to flying* A pity inde-
Pain, a large amount of pain as if a part of him has been ripped apart was felt by Delargte, he lost vision in his right eye and his control over the corruption weakened as the portal through still there, grew smaller.
The world returns to normal and he sees himself laying down in a crater with his vessel brutally cut down.
The Sonic duo float in front of him with their weapons pointed at him, Oberon is impales through his torso and Talos is in Sonic's hand. He looks down at him in contempt while the right eye is now in his hand.
Sonic: To think you will even transplant his eye, you truly are the lowest level of scum. Before I kill you.. tell me who the other one is.
Delargte: Gegegeyayayay*laughs* To Think you had a illusion weapon.. Guess what? No-
With quick cut before he could finish the rest of the words, Sonic used the soul prism to extract Scourge's trapped soul and obliterated Delargte with a massive sword made of light that crushed him before exploding in a blinding light.
Sonic: I wish you a painful afterlife. In the stomach of that bastard that is. *Turns around* We should get these things over with.
Sonic°: *nods* You take the left, I take the right. Let's clean this city really quick.
They both deactivated their full power to save energy and split up, Sonic went towards the stadium while Sonic° went towards the angel island.
*****
Starline is standing atop the the highest skyscraper in the city, with a blur surge appears behind him with a object in her hands.
Starline: So you succeeded? Good, *voice changes* Now I can start the real plan... Hope you had fun with my other half. Didn't think I knew you had the real one hidden in that Gun place's building did you? Authority.
Starline. No. Delargte turns to meet Surge's hostile gaze as he grabs the spark in her hands, he raises it in front of him and as he was about to use it, he turns and hit Surge with a kick straight to stomach.
Surge flew and crashed into the building's top floor, blood coming out of her mouth, her rubs broken. Delargte slowly walks to her and takes the item she had hidden in her pocket.
Delargte: fool.. Did you really think hiding the core will help you? Through i could kill you right now but.. that will be no fun will it?
He stands up and looks out the window and watches as Sonic dashes through the city, killing his servants one by one while the so called knights carry the Destructix members in shackles. He chuckled lightly and begins channeling the Core's power into himself.
Surge: 'This shithead.. i.. have failed you, kit... But i wont be dying alone.' *her bones crackle but she still stands up under the pain* I will do this even if this is the last thing I do.
Dragging herself forward, she lunges with all her strength and ate the core floating above the dazed Delargte, he comes to his senses as the channeling cancel and grabs her by the neck.
Delargte: SPIT IT OUT *slams her onto the glass window* I have changed my mind, I will rip it out of your corpse then.
He watches as Surge raises her hand towards him and gives him a middle finger while shattered the core inside her stomach through the augments.
A massive explosion disintegrates more than half of the 800 meter building they were in and The absurd amount of power gathered Sonic's attention. He grabs the ruby and quickly dashes for the shattered place.
****
Sonic: Just what happened here? This feels like.. *his eyes widen in realisation.* this is.
Argus: Residual divinity... We were deceived.
Sonic quickly raises his speed and reaches the foot of the building, he saw a black charred hand sticking out of a pile of rubble on a crator. He quickly cuts apart the rubble to see a charred corpse with a hole in it's torso.
Sonic: I don't remember seeing someone like this *crouches down and checks the corpse* This is the source of explosion... *Calls the ruby which warps into his hands* reality bend: Reconstruct.
Sonic watches as the torso slowly begins joining again and then the skin begin recovering, Soon Surge's body was rebuilt but showed no movement. Suddenly he felt his sixth sense tingling and quickly jumps away with Surge in his hand while cutting away the arm coming his way.
Delargte: This is getting Annoying, if you people ...*Slowly regenerates his body* I am gonna make sure none of this planet's people live past today.
The platypus vessel of Delargte twitches before nearby divinity began pulling towards him, Sonic understood a great amount of danger and quickly retreats but gets engulfed by portal and thrown out on the other side of the city.
Sonic°: You alright? We feared you alm- *almost loses his balance* Woah... Now this is gonna be a big problem.
Sonic° looks at the point of explosion to see the city's skies losing their colours while the ground and building turns into dust, the dust rises and covers the body Delargte while another pair of arms emerges from his back.
The face changes and the soon The Platypus body resembles a scaled beast with 6 arms with a dragon's head and a tale on its back. (Basically godzilla but now back spikes but six arms)
Sonic: We have no option now.. EVERYONE.. leave the place.
Sonic°: what do you mean leave? We can probably beat that disgusting lizard no o-
Before other could argue back Sonic had already grabbed the ruby and warped everyone very far away.
A wave of Corruption hits as the space becomes unstable just after everyone was warped, A figure quickly appears in front of Sonic. The figure had a striking resemblance to espio but instead of the spike in his nose the figure had plated shell.
Delargte: You have grown soft, you really think you can win against me alone? Maybe if you had used them as sacrifices then m-
Sonic: Shut up. You have already repeated this speech to me over a thousand times, sacrifice this sacrifice that. Why don't you sacrifice that arrogance and get yourself a life?
With a swift claw, Delargte pierced Sonic's chest. He smiles as he looks at him in the eye as he brings back his hand.
Delargte: if you had a single shred of Divinity from the explosion, I would have ran away in fear. Too bad you were too focused on saving that insect instead. After I kill all you people like I did beg-
Sonic: Kill? You dare use such big words before me?
The world loses it's colour to not just darkness but to black and white, Sonic laughs completely ignoring the hole in his chest while Delargte slowly retreat back.
Delargte: How? YOUR BODY SHOULD HAVE CRUMBLED THE MOMENT YOU USE THAT POWER *his eye slowly turns to Sonic's hand where he saw a green one edged longsword* That's the...
Sonic: That's right.. I formed a pact with argus, for the next 10 second I can do whatever I want and you know damn well that is like a day for someone like me.
Delargte falls to the ground losing all hope, he stares at Sonic who is smiling at him like a madman.
Sonic: I warped them away not because I feared you but because I didn't want your disgusting corruption to twist their personalities. Begone *snap*
The city and the area of over 15 km was simply erased from existence with nothing remaining in it except Sonic who just sat their and looked at the core of the spark he condensed from Delargte.
Sonic: this should be enough for me to stop needing you to use boundless right?
Argus: For about 1% for a min or two I guess, you still need a lot of divinity if we want to get back to where we were.. and I mean a lot.
Sonic absorbs the core as he felt his body strengthen again under the power of divinity.
Just as he finished absorbing the core after 10 mins,Suddenly a portal appears beside him and surge walks out, She looks at him with her pupilless white eyes.
???: How have you been? For you to now contact me even after you meet Technioum. I had to find you myself.
Sonic couldn't move as a invisible force stopped him, he felt his control over his body weaken while surge looks circles around him while grabbing argus in her hands.
???: Why didn't you try to convince him? I made sure to request you to do that, Uncle argus.
Argus: Don't blame me, he said he wanted to live a easy life. He even had few girls he accepted as wives.
???: *slowly turns towards Sonic as a nerve appears on her forehead* I didn't think I was so unattractive you decided to marry someone else before me. Also why did change into a hedgehog from a werewolf?
