YAY!!! I get to do it this time! Usually I get the issues later than everyone else.

Anyways, After Sonic and Ash stop the Fearsome Three from rampaging, Mogul switches tactics and sends them off in different directions. Sonic grabs Ash and goes to the prison to see what he is up to. Once there, Mogul informs him that Tails is flying straight upward until he passes out from lack of oxygen, Mina is running to the center of the ocean where she will stop and drown, and Mighty is walking straight into Robotnik's territory without putting up any resistance. Sonic realizes he can't save them all without giving Mogul what he wants, which happens to be a chaos emerald located in Castle Acorn. Despite Nicole's efforts to kill the three, Sonic and Ash bravely steal the emerald and get it to Mogul, and he keeps his word and returns the 3 to safety. He releases the other captives in the prison cells and tells Sonic that he knows that no matter how powerful he gets, Sonic will always win, but since Mogul is immortal and Sonic is not, he will simply wait him out and make him and his children and children's children miserable. Then he disappears with his crew. Basically, bad guys win. The End.

Side Story, Rouge convinces Knuckles to stop being a tard about the Enerjak thing, but *shocker* her intentions aren't selfish and pure!

And that's about it really. I really liked the main story, for once I didn't predict the ending, first time in many years that has happened. Side story... waste of pages and completely trashed the clever plot twist of Knuckles going back to his Gaurdian mode.

Discuss!
