The only option left is to eject them to the four corners of Mobius, with Chaos in pursuit. In another dimension, Doctor Robotnik and Grimer track the Emeralds' flight and move to collect them. On the Floating Island, the Freedom Fighters arrive to prise Knuckles away from certain death and Sonic returns to save the world.
