(Sue is asleep. Nyperold comes in, sits on the bed, and smiles. He gently tickles her awake, and she giggles.)

Nyperold: Hey, Sue, feel up to a MiST today?
Sue: Nah, I'm all MiSTed out from yesterday. Actually, it feels like I've been MiSTing for months.

(A thud is heard.)

Nyperold: What was that? (investigates) Oh, it's just a piece of fourth wall. Anyway, I'm gonna go MiST, so what I'll do is take you and some blankets and a pillow to the rec room, and you can sleep in there, if you like. How's that sound?
Sue: (yawning) Sounds good.

(Nyperold bundles her up in blanket and pillows and carries her to The MiST Place; specifically, the rec room. He lays the pillow on the floor, then Sue with her head on it, and finally, the blanket on her. He kisses her forehead, says, "Have a nice rest," turns off the light, and goes over to Box and Tiff.)

Nyperold: (whispering) Hey, guys. Voices low. Sleepy sister.
Tiff: (sweetly) Awwwww...
Box: (quietly) So, what's up?
Nyperold: (same) Well, I feel like doing a MiST. Not sure what yet, though.

(A low rumble of thunder is heard.)

Nyperold: (quietly) Well, I know no one's playing the Symphonic Ruin remix... it must be about to rain or something. (looks over at Sue) She doesn't seem to be affected... sound asleep, she is.
Box: Okay, so let's go.

(They exit the room, and are surprised to see Sonic, Shadow, Tails, Dr. Eggman, Knuckles, Rouge, and Amy.)

Dr. Eggman: We were just passing by, and wondered if we could seek shelter from the storm in here.
Nyperold: (blinks) Sure, but try to keep your voices d-- Hey, aren't you Dr. Eggman?
Dr. Eggman: (sighs, then speaks quietly) Yes, I am. Listen, I've done some pretty awful things in the past, and these guys have been a great help in turning me around. My life was already a wreck from my constant obsession with world domination, and they managed to help me anyway.
Nyperold: (quietly) Well, that's good to hear.
Sonic: (same) Yeah, he's been way past cool since we found the cure. Uh, why are we whispering?
Nyperold: (same) My sister's asleep in the rec room.
Rouge: (same) Can we see?
Nyperold: (same) Sure, but remember, be quiet.

(All peek in, quietly "Awwwww..." at the sight of the sleeping meerkat and exit again.)

Amy: (quietly) She's so cute!
Nyperold: (same, smiling) Yeah... hey, we were gonna go MiST something. Wanna join us?
Shadow: (quietly) That sounds most amusing.

(Nyperold shows them around. In the snacks area, Eggman gets some jelly eggs, Sonic snags three chili beef dogs, Amy picks up some cotton candy, Tails obtains some chicken franks, Shadow grabs some licorice, and Rouge chooses an apple. They go to the theater and are seated like this: Sonic, Amy, Nyperold, Tiff, Box, Tails, Knuckles, Rouge, Shadow, and Eggman.)

Nyperold: Okay, we're where we won't wake her up, now, so you can be pretty much as loud as we want!
All: (cheer)
Box: So, what did you finally decide to give us to MiST?
Tiff: Is it based on Sonic the Comic?
Sonic: Huh?
Nyperold: No...
Box: Sonic the Hedgehog, the Saturday morning cartoon?
Sonic: What?
Nyperold: No...
The bots: What then?
Nyperold: Actually, it's the soundtrack to Sonic Adventure 2.
Box: Like we didn't get a big enough dose last MiST...
Nyperold: Oh hush.
Sonic: What are you talking about?
Nyperold: Well, there was this game for the Sega Dreamcast that was ported to the Nintebndo Gamecube, and it was about that adventure with the Space Colony ARK.
Sonic: Well, I remember that... but I didn't know it was made into a game, and I certainly don't remember any music...
All except Nyperold and the bots: (voice agreement)
Nyperold: Well, now you get to hear it, then. Well, the ones with lyrics, anyway. Oh, and whenever you want to pause to make a comment, just push a button and it'll stop at the end of the word. Ready?
All except for Nyperold: Yeah!

Live And Learn (Main Theme)

Can you feel life movin' through your mind,

Tails: No, but I can feel Cheerios in my mouth.
Amy: (giggles) Ya shoulda brushed your teeth, then, Tails!

Ooh, looks like it came back for more!
Yeah yeah yeah!
Can you feel time slippin' down your spine,

Tails: (as Fox McCloud) The Time-Slip Theory says that we can use gravity to create a four-dimensional warp.
Nyperold: Since when did you read Nintendo Power, Tails?
Tails: Since... the one with the clay Mario with the pallette-swapped clothes...
All except Tails: O.O
Sonic: Y'know, a few years ago, I would've called you a traitor. But now, I hope we've all put our nasty little console prejudices behind us.
Knuckles: Appropriate that a fox kitsune does Fox McCloud...

Ooooooh, You try and try to ignore!
Yeah!

But you can hardly swallow,

Eggman: A ten-ton weight.
Sonic: A few years ago, I would've said you had.
Eggman: (laughs) Yeah, and I'd be even more determined to get rid of you... glad those days are over.

Your fears and pain.
When you can't help but follow,
It puts you right back where you came.

Live and learn!

ALL: WE GOT TITLE MENTION!
Shadow: Better than dying and staying ignorant, that.

Hanging on the edge of tomorrow,

Rouge: Sounds like a bad Search For Tomorrow/Edge of Night crossover... (gets looks) Hey! A gal can hear of soaps without actually seeing them, can't she?

Live and learn!
From the works of yesterday.

Box: And the WordStar of tomorrow.

Live and learn!
If you beg or if you borrow,

Tiff: Hey, nice rhyme, Box!
Tails: From the first you get a doggie treat. I speak from experience...

Live and learn!
You may never find your way.

Knuckles: Well, that's encouraging.

Whooooa, yeah!

Can you feel life tangle you up inside?
Yeah, now you're face down on the floor!

Eggman: A card in a card game, then.

Oh!

But you can't save your sorrow,

Sonic: Until you find a save point.

You've paid in trade!
When you can't help but follow,
It puts you right back where you came.

Tails: Yeah, looks like that's what happened!

Live and learn!
Hanging on the edge of tomorrow,
Live and learn!
From the works of yesterday.
Live and learn!
If you beg or if you borrow,
Live and learn!
You may never find your way.

Hey, whoa, whoa,

Tiff: Doncha have to do something with the reins, too?

Oh yeeeeeeeeeeeah!

Tiff: Hmm. Thought so.

SIDE NOTE: Feel free to choke after the "yeeeeeeeeeeah!"

All: (make choking noises)

-INSTRUMENTAL-

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

-INSTRUMENTAL-

There's a face searching far, so far and wide.
There's a place where you dream you'd never find.
Hold on to what if?

Nyperold: Yeah, we've got those at the Domain of NetRaptor!

Hold on to what if?

Live and learn!
Hanging on the edge of tomorrow,
Live and learn!
From the works of yesterday.
Live and learn!
If you beg or if you borrow,
Live and learn!
You may never find your way.

Sonic: How many times are they gonna sing that?

Live and learn!
Hanging on the edge of tomorrow,
Live and learn!
From the works of yesterday.
Live and learn!
If you beg or if you borrow,
Live and learn!
You may never find your way.

(The song ends.)

Knuckles: Well, that was... interesting... what's next?
Nyperold: We'll see...

It Doesn't Matter (Theme of Sonic)

Sonic: WHAT?!?
Nyperold: Oh, I see. It's all of your themes in the game. They play during cinema scenes, and the 2P Battle Mode.
Amy: Cinema scenes? 2P Battle Mode?
Box: Cinema scenes are the part of the game in which you are talking rather than running, fighting, or searching, like when Shadow was remembering Maria, when Knuckles saved Rouge and got some Emerald shards, and when Tails and Amy were on Prison Island after Eggman left the scene of the battle. The 2P Battle Mode is a special mode in which two of you, among others, battle it out. There are some details, but let's go back to the MiST. Suffice it to say that cinema scenes and the 2P Battle mode are the only regular places where Amy shows up.
Amy: Hmph.
Sonic: Love the title, too. It makes me sound like, "Oh me, oh my, why bother?"

(whistle)

(All get question marks above their heads, and they turn toward the screen. When they see it, the question marks are replaced by exclamation points, then heart shapes. They run over to the screen.)
Rouge: Hey! Since when are we chao?
(All shrug and return to thir seats.)

Ooooh yeah!!!...
Aall right!!!...

Well, I don't show off,

Knuckles: You're sure this is Sonic's theme?
Sonic: Hey!
(All except Sonic snicker.)

don't criticize,
I'm just livin' by my own feelings.

Sonic: Yeah, and I'm always getting their mail!

And I won't give in, won't compromise,
'Cause I only have a steadfast heart of gold...

Tails: Since when do you have the spaceship from The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy?
Sonic: I have no idea...

I don't know why. I can't leave though it might be tough,
But I ain't out of control, just livin' by my word.

Sonic: And it's always getting my mail!

Don't ask me why, I don't need a reason.
I got my way. My own way!!!

Eggman: (singing) I did it myyyy waaaaaay...
Amy: The Eggman can sing? Who knew?
Eggman: (laughs) Well, I could sing before... whatever turned me evil robbed me of my good singing voice. I regained my ability after I turned back.

It doesn't matter

All: WE GOT TITLE MENTION!

now what happens. I will never give up the fight!!!
Long as the voice inside drives me to run and fight,

Shadow: Are you running or are you fighting?
Sonic: Hey, it depends. G.U.N. mech? Fighting. G.U.N. truck? RUNNING.

It doesn't matter who is wrong and who is right!

Tiff: Well, that's true. Fights, races, and such cannot determine the correctness of one's cause.

Well, I won't look back I don't need to,

Sonic: Unless I want to get the A--
Amy: (covers his mouth) IXNAY on the item hints, okay? Now that we know it was in a game, they can find it for themselves, or get a walkthrough.
Sonic: (removing her paw) Okay, okay!

Time won't wait and I got so much to do.

Where do I stop now, it's all a blur,

Sonic: That's me, the Blue Blur!
Shadow: Don't forget that I'm as fast as you!

it's so unclear.
Well, I don't know but I can't be wrong!

It doesn't matter

Eggman: It doesn't antimatter, either.

now what happens. I will never give up the fight!!!
Long as the voice inside drives me to run and fight,
Place all your bets on the one you think is right!

Knuckles: So we're gambling, now?

(Guitar Solo)

Nyperold: "Solo" you can't hear it!
All except Nyperold: (groan)

Ooh.. It doesn't matter now what happens. I will never give up the fight!!!
Long as the voice inside drives me to run and fight,
It doesn't matter who is wrong and who is right!

No! No! No! No...

Box: Nyet! Lo! Non! Nein!
Nyperold: 9? 9 what?
All except Nyperold: (groan)

It doesn't matter!!!

Amy: Looks like that song's over. I wonder who's theme is coming up...

Believe In Myself (Theme of Miles)

Tails: ME?
Knuckles: (as Ziggy Marley) Oh believe in yourself, for that's the place to start...
Sonic: How appropriate, Rasta mon!
Knuckles: And I say, "Hey!"

When all alone in my chair, I just go about wishing
I wanna be strong, I really wanna be trusted
When all alone in my bed, I just go about yearning

Rouge: You ever not alone when you're in bed?
Tails: I'm always alone in bed, and that suits me for now.

I wanna be cool, I also wanna be like him

Sonic: You want to be red with green eyes, have a claw, wear a belt, frills and hip boots, and be incredibly evil?
Tails: No way!

But that's not something I can do so easily
This is not simply my way, my style
Gotta get a hold of my life

* I wanna fly high

Tails: Well, that's doable, anyway, what with my tails and the Tornado...

So I can reach the highest of all the heavens
Somebody will be waiting for me so,
I have got to fly higher

Tails: Now, if only I could find a spring or a pulley...

Gotta keep goin'
Everything is a brand new challenge for me
I will believe in myself

All: WE GOT TITLE MENTION!

This is the only start for me

When all alone in my sleep, I just go about dreaming
I see myself there, having the same adventure

Nyperold: Sounds like whoever's singing this has played the game.

If I just follow you, I will never see the light
Now is the time to find my way through this life
I'm trying so hard to be strong

Tails: Now, if only these robots would yield red chaos drives...

* Repeat

Tiff: (as Nanny) I'll get some radishes! They always make me repeat!
Nyperold: Ah, the Count Duckula comic book ref surfaces.

(Guitar solo)

Many friends help me out, in return I help them
Certain things I can do and there are things that only I can do
No one's alone!

* Repeat

Tails: (to Amy) Pete and Repeat were sitting in a boat. Pete fell out. Who was left?
Amy: Repeat.
Tails: Pete and Repeat were sitting in a boat. Pete fell out. Who was left?
Amy: ... Hey! ... Oh, the song's over.

Unknown From M.E. (Theme of Knuckles)

Knuckles: (grins) Ohhhhh, yeah.

OK! (SCRATCH)

Rouge: Ow! Stop scratching me!
Knuckles: I didn't scratch you...
Rouge: Who was that, then? ... (grins) Oh, I was only responding to the screen.

Something's callin' me, I don't know what,
Something's talkin' but I don't know who.
Something's callin' me more and more,

All: AHHHHH! IT'S A TELEMARKETER!

No-one stops Knuckles' feet!

Knuckles: You can say that again!

Something's callin' me, I don't know what,
Something's talkin' but I don't know who.
Something's callin' me more and more,
No-one stops Knuckles' feet!

Knuckles: I didn't mean it!

K.N.U.C.K.L.E.S.,
Was born for a lifetime on Angel Island yeah,
His duty's to protect Master Emerald diamond,

Tiff: So is it an emerald or a diamond?

Hold the climate, he's searching for shining.

Eggman: He wants to complete his collection of Jack Nicholson movies?

But every time he look for the sun can't find it,
Is this the way, the path I chose?
Then why am I living with my heart so cold?
All that I see is a storm of stones?

Knuckles: HEY!! Who's this imposter claiming to be me? He certainly doesn't sound like me...

(in this part, 1 is at the same time as 2.)

1 - I like to dig holes in search of gold,
Large pots of treasure make me feel much better.

Knuckles: Man! I sound greedy now!

2 - Born on an island in the heaven.

1 - If I find Eggman, Rouge, whoever,
Clench my fists tight, become more ready!

(Eggman and Rouge edge nervously away)
Knuckles: Hey, don't worry, guys; I know you're both good eggs, now!
(All except Knuckles roll their eyes.)

2 - The blood of my ancestors flows inside me.

Knuckles: Generational blood transfusions ROCK!

1 - I don't wanna hurta, my passion observed,
I been lonely all my life, doesn't matter.
2 - My duty is to save the flower.

Tails: Sounds like that one level of Zen: Intergalactic Ninja.

1 - Here for the mission, whoever want it bring it,
Cold and stubborn but I still gon' live it.
2 - From evil deterioration, yeah!

Do anything to get pieces of the Emerald,
Climb the mountain, through the valley around the hill,
Wild and hungry,

Nyperold: Ooh, direct game references. I think we'll be seeing a lot of those on the other part.
Knuckles: Huh?
Nyperold: Remember Church Mountain and Pumpkin Mountain? They were in a level called Pumpkin Hill. And "Wild" might refer to the Wild Canyon level. You know, the one with the Wind Altar?
Knuckles: Ohhhh...

ain't a damn thing funny,

Nyperold: Part of why it says Mild Lyrics...

My philosophy's, my knuckles and feet!

Nyperold: Ooh, that'll put you right up there with "Hegel" and his Bubble Lead attack.
Tiff: Uh, Nyp, are you sure that's not too obscure?

Streaking lights, loud sounds, and instinct,
Are the elements that keep me going.
I am fighting my own mission,
Nothing's gonna, stand in my way, noooo!

Nyperold: Except possibly a break in the buoying etherial mist.

Something's callin' me, I don't know what,
Something's talkin' but I don't know who.
Something's callin' me more and more,
No-one stops Knuckles' feet!

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Won't be frightened, I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil,
Just believe in myself,

Nyperold: Reference to other songs #1.

won't rely on others.
I get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy,
This is my planet, gonna fight for my destiny.

Nyperold: Of course, you should really try to planet out.
All except Nyperold: (groan)
Box: Yeesh...

Something's callin' me, I don't know what,
Something's talkin' but I don't know who.
Something's callin' me more and more,

Rouge: Get a answering machine, then! "Dis is Knuckles, and you have reached da Angel Island. At da beepity-beepity-beepity-beep, please leave yo' name, yo' digits, and a short message, and I'll get back to ya! Peace! *beep*
Knuckles: I don't sound like that!
Rouge: But he does!

No-one stops Knuckles' feet!

(INSTRUMENTAL)

I have no such things as weak spots,

Sonic: It's more like, everywhere!
Knuckles: You wanna to back up that statement?
Amy: GUYS!

Don't approve of him but gotta trust him.

Knuckles: Who?

This alliance has a purpose,

Knuckles: With whom?
Tails: To take out the Death Egg-- I mean, Star!
Eggman: All right, so I was a little too much into Star Wars, then!
Shadow: I'd say Gerald was into Independance Day, but that movie wasn't made when the ARK was built.

This partnership is, only temporary, oh!

HEY!

Won't be frightened, I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil,
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others.
We will be waiting when serenity is restored,
This is my planet, I shall not surreeeeeeeender!

Nyperold: (opening fourth wall) If any of you out there want to sing Never Surrender, go ahead. I don't know the tune.

I was born like this, to fear no-one,
I'm straight thugged out,

Sonic: Duuuude, you kill people for Kali?
Knuckles: Where is he getting this?

only live to my ones,
Diamonds and gems, we 'ka battle to the end,

Shadow: You battled the python from Jungle Book?
Knuckles: That's "Kaa", and no, I've never had to.

You best ta be aware of the knuckles that I send.

Eggman: Yeah, one time, I wasn't aware, and I opened a package, only to be punched in the nose by its contents. Not that I can complain; I deserved it, AND worse.

Once they penetrate, they put you to your death,

(Sonic starts to say something, but the sight of Amy with hammer silences him.)

They hard as iron, and my feet is like fire,
You never see me run

Knuckles: Umm... imposter dude... King Boom Boo? I got in a lot of running during that battle...

and I won't surrender,
I just fly away like it's no other contender, uh!

Knuckles: It's called "gliding".

Won't be frightened, I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil,
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others.
I get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy,
This is my planet, gonna fight, aaaah!

All: REAL MONSTERS!

Won't be frightened, I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil,
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others.
We will be waiting when serenity is restored,
This is my planet, I shall not surrender!

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Something's callin' me, I don't know what,
Something's talkin' but I don't know who.
Something's callin' me more and more,
No-one stops Knuckles' feet!

(Repeat 3x)

Knuckles: Ahhhhh! They keep calling baaaaaack!

Throw It All Away (Shadow's Theme)

Everybody tries to be straight,

(Sonic almost says something, but fear of the hammer keeps him in line.)

But things are still unchanged,
It's useless to resist,
Their effort will be wasted.
Head straight for your goal by any means,

Nyperold: Usually, running, jumping, grinding, somersaulting, hoverskating, hovering, flying on rockets, the homing attack, and flipping from the horizontal bars are sufficient, although occasionally you have to break out the missles.
(all stare)

There is a door that you've never opened,
There is a window with a view you have never seen,
Get there, no matter how long it takes.

Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.

Sonic: It's hard to throw darkness.
Nyperold: It's hard to pick it up in the first place.
Rouge: Not that I would've wanted to in that pyramid level...
Knuckles: Oh?
Rouge: Yeah, there was this beetle-shaped flying robot with green eyes. It was very loud, thankfully. I'm telling you, you hear that sound, you dash for the nearest shadow--
Shadow: Me?
Rouge: No, a shape caused by blocked light. Anyway, you dash for one of them or the next room, or you get zapped.
Knuckles: Man, I'm glad I didn't have to deal with that...

No-one can break you, nobody can tear you,

Box: Do not fold, spindle, or multilate.
Tiff: And if you do spindle, try not to prick your finger.

You live an endless life forever.

Eggman: Yes, that is what "endless" means...

Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,

Tails: Drains the dry desert of dilly-dalliers.

Throw it all away.
You see a light wherever you go,

Sonic: That would be the MBF.
Knuckles: MBF?
Sonic: Magnesium B--
(Amy brandishes the hammer, ready to clock him.)
Sonic: --ackside Flare.

You have to face it again and again.

Nyperold: Looks more like a Magnesium Frontside Flare, unless you're an owl.

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.
No-one can break you, nobody can tear you,
You live an endless life forever.
Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk,
Throw it all away.
You see a light wherever you go,

Tails: Aw man, caught at the red light again?

You have to face it again and again.

Rouge: Well, that was cheery...

e.g.g.m.a.n. (Eggman's Theme)

Tiff: Explosive Guacamole Gum Manufacturers of the Aryan Nation?
Nyperold: Let us sincerely hope not.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah

The story begins with who's gonna win

Sue: (pretending to read a book that's not there) Once upon a time, there was a tortoise who won a race. (looks up) Well, that was dumb.

Knowing the danger that lies within
Aboard the ARK, a genius at heart
Wanting to unlock the mysteries of life

All: (singing) Ah, sweet mystery of life, at last I've found you...

Chorus
I am the Eggman, that's what I am
I am the Eggman, I got the master plan.
I am the Eggman, that's what I am,
I am the Eggman, I got the master plan.

I'm plotting my schemes,
Wherever I go,

Eggman: Wherever I Mah-Jongg, too.
All: (groan)
Sonic: Man, changing your alignment didn't make the jokes any better...

They're perfect in every way.

Eggman: (smirks) Except that they get foiled every time.

I'd love to destroy,
The blue one you know,
He's an obstacle who always gets in my way.

Sonic: Glad that's not the case anymore.

I must play this game by my rules
I will conquer the world with my tools

Eggman: Go forth, socket wrenches! Go forth, needlenose pliers! Go, and conquer! MUWHAHAHAHAHA!
(All edge away from him)
Eggman: Oh, come on, guys! It was a joke!
Amy: Still... gives me the shivers.

All my machines are made for destruction

Eggman: Accomplished, of course, by the one-and-only Sonic!
Sonic: Thank you, tha-- huh? I never destroyed stuff with those machines...
Eggman: No, but you destroyed the machines themselves!
Sonic: Ah... that's true.

I will build my empire
I will succeed and you will see
With my machines, there is no retreat

Eggman: That's not technically true... (to Sonic) remember our early battles, when I would come with one of my machines, and you would beat it, but I would always retreat?
Sonic: OH yeah!
Box: The reader may note that at this point, the author acquired the Sonic Mega Collection

*repeat chorus

I am the enemy, I will succeed
My mission, yeah, I must complete

Eggman: And, hopefully, get an A rank!

My name is Eggman, don't forget my name
If you ask me again I'll tell you the same

*repeat chorus

I am the Eggman

(various scats to end)

Amy: Scat!
Sonic: Skedaddle!
Knuckles: Vamoose!
Shadow: Git!
Rouge: Go away!
Nyperold: I think we get the picture...

Fly in the Freedom (Rouge's Theme)

Rouge: But I'm a bat, not a fly!

Uh...

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Tap the rhythm against the floor,
To look for another door.

Nyperold: Heh. Sounds like one of those riddles Eliza had to figure out...
Knuckles: Eliza?
Nyperold: One of your fanmade sisters, actually. Made up by one called Dr. Sipp.
Knuckles: Ahh...

I am shaking,
To the mystery of the night.
I know there is an easier way,

Box: But this way is shorter and has lots of powerups if you can get through!

But it is my choice anyway.
Don't let me waste my time,

Rouge: Yeah, 'cause only having 5 minutes to collect 3 Chaos Emeralds can be a real pain... why did I have to be so cocky?

In futile thinking any more.

Fated not to be tamed.
Watch me, I never will lean upon you.
I can go... by myself.

Fly in the freedom,
Time never stop and wait for me.

Shadow: (smugly) Ah, but it does for me!
Sonic: Ah, but you never did really teleport like I did, now did you?
Shadow: ... no.
Nyperold: Then how...
Shadow: ... did I survive? (shrugs) Mystic Melody warp.

(show the way!)
Looking for answers and looking for the clue.

Nyperold: Did you find a clue? Where?

Fly in the freedom!

Ooooooooooh!

Nobody taught me to hint,
Win a happy life of a dream,
I'm not waiting for a fortune teller.

Nyperold: "You won't get your fortune told here, but it's fun to get a lucky name for your chao." Right. I'll name them myself, thank you.

I feel that my wish will come true,
I've never thought ahead to that luck,
Is it my treasure? Tell me what I've really looked for.

Nyperold: (to Rouge) Master Emerald shards, Gate keys, Chaos Emeralds, even Tails.
Rouge: I didn't ask, she did!
Tiff: Well, she does sound like you...

Fancy came to my mind,
It leads me to somewhere far away,
Distant place, distant time.

Eggman: So you used a TARDIS?
Rouge: If I had, I would've rounded up the emeralds within the first minute.

Fly in the freedom,
Time never stop and wait for me. (show the way!)
Looking for answers and looking for the clue.

Fly in the freedom,
There's a lot of things to do.
Come on, I'm ready to gamble, it's time to play the game.

Rouge: Rougie needs a new pair of boots!
Nyperold: If I could get to Mad Space, maybe I could get them...

Fly in the freedom,
Tell me, what is this feeling?

(Sonic coughs, and is clocked by the hammer.)
Sonic: Flickieeeees... (thud)

(show the way!)
I'm in a paradise, I'll keep it forever.

Rouge: Well, Dry Lagoon is pretty...
Knuckles: (as Rouge) All the world's paradises are mine to keep!
(Rouge elbows him in the gut.)
Knuckles: Oof!

Fly in the freedom,
I'll never stop my steps.
If I believe in myself,

Nyperold: Reference to other songs #2!
Sonic: Ohhhh... did anybody get the letter on that truck?
Amy: Bad Sonic! No biscuit!
Sonic: I just had something fly down my throat, Amy...
Amy: Oops... sorry...
Sonic: (smiling) Eh, I'm over it.

I know that I can, sure I know.

(INSTRUMENTAL... lots of "da"s) :)

Nyperold: Guy Smiley? Is that you?

Fly in the freedom,
Time never stop and wait for me. (show the way!)
Looking for answers and looking for the clue.

Fly in the freedom,
There's a lot of things to see.
Come on, I'm ready to gamble, it's time to play the game.

Fly in the freedom,
Tell me, what is the feeling? (show the way!)
I'm in a paradise, I'll keep it forever.

Fly in the freedom,
Dreams are always around me.
Oh, it comes to my hands, it's really clear to me.

Sonic: Hey! She's wearing my Magic Gloves!

Ooooh...

Looking for answers, looking for the clue.
I'm in a paradise, I'll keep it forever.
Looking for answers, looking for the clue.
I'm in a paradise, I'll keep it forever.

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Amy: I guess it's down to me, then, huh?
Nyperold: Yep.
Amy: (looks nervous)

My Sweet Passion (Theme of Amy)

Sonic: Three guesses as to what she was passionate about...

I got out my map and chose a place I wanted to go to

Amy: Except that I don't have a STAGE in this game, hence no STAGE SELECT... (mumbles)
Nyperold: Well, you are a playable character in Sonic Advance...
Amy: (brightening) Really?
Nyperold: ...but not in Sonic Advance 2.
Amy: ...Oh. (mumbles)

...Packed up my stuff, set out for adventure...
I know that your lucky color is that cool shade of blue
...Won't mind painting myself blue for you...

Box: She fell in love with that Carpainter dude?
Sonic: There are times I would've thought that preferable... but then I wouldn't have known her as just a really good friend. (gives her a friendly hug)
(Amy cheers up and hugs back.)

I guess I'm so easy to understand
I just do what ever that comes to me naturally

I do understand the feelings of a Persian Cat
...But the Sphinx looked so cute I had to shave it...

Amy: But I cut a little too close, and, well...
Knuckles: "The Sphinx head is buried here"?
Amy: Yep.

He reminds me of parsley when he's standing there all alone

All: ... PARSLEY?!?

...Makes me wanna be his specialite...
I guess I'm just a self-centered girl

Tails: Correction: were.
Amy: (smiles at Tails)

But there are nights that I have trouble going to sleep

Nyperold: (singing, as Ernie) Sometimes I have trouble falling asleep, but it's not so bad...
Box: (speaking, as Bert) Not again...

* Sweet sweet you're so sweet - So many things I want
Sweet sweet you're so sweet - I wanna be a wonderful girl

Knuckles: Dare I say you've succeeded?
Amy: (giggles) Guys, you're making me blush now!
Knuckles: Of course, it's not the way you were thinking back then... which is a good thing!

Sweet sweet you're so sweet - I'm not simple-minded
Sweet sweet you're so sweet - And I won't be a pearl

Nyperold: Considering that this is a MiST... that's a relief.

You probably need me just as much as I need you

(Pf solo)

Eggman: Pfffffffffffffff.

Are you okay you seem to be a little bit tense
...You don't have to worry 'bout a single thing...
We are free to get whatever that we want to have
...We're also free to do whatever we want...
That's what we'll do that's what we'll do
We should live our lives the way we think it ought to be

Shadow: That can be hazardous...

Sweet sweet you're so sweet - There's no where to hide

Sonic: And yes, I often found that to be the case...

Sweet sweet you're so sweet - Come on settle our lives
Sweet sweet you're so sweet - I'll always be there for you
Sweet sweet you're so sweet - In the best and worst times

Amy: But nothing in the middle, of course.

You can be my sweetest honey for eternity

Sonic: Of course, I'd die of old age after a while... and rot...

* Repeat

I honestly need you just as much as you need me

Amy: She sounds too old to be me, anyway.
Box: So, we've exhausted all the character themes. Now what?

For True Story (Sonic vs. Shadow)

Sonic & Shadow: US?!?
Nyperold: Must be the boss battles.
Shadow: But which fight? The one in the forest?
Nyperold: Nope. Does this line ring a bell? "Before this is over, I'll show you the true power of Chaos Control!"
Shadow: That battle? But that's almost at the end!
Nyperold: Well, it's the first boss battle with lyrics.

Chaos Control (give it a try),

Sonic: (smug) Obviously, I succeeded.

Chaos Control (give it a try).

Chaos Control (give it a try),
Chaos Control (give it a try).

I'm really still trying (give it a go),
You can keep at it ('cause running is so slow).

Sonic: Hey!

Chaos control (give it a go),
You can keep at it ('cause running is so slow).

I'm shivering with cold.

Amy: Shoulda bundled up, Shadow!
(Shadow glares at her, but he can't keep it up.)

I still can't give in to despair.

Nyperold: Unless, of course, you were shot with the Despair Squid's ink... (gets looks) What?

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Rouge: Well, that was short.
Eggman: I'm about ready for a break.
Nyperold: We'll break after the next one. Then we'll do action scenes.
Sonic: You know, you're gonna hafta explain about those.
Nyperold: During the break.

Supporting Me (Biolizard's Theme)

I'm gonna be desperate,
Never lose, hurry, never lose, hurry.

I believe in my future, farewell to the shadow,

Shadow: Goodbye, then.

It was my place to live, but now I need your hand.

Box: (as Kryten) Logically, sir, there is only one way you could have possibly have opened that door. I feel quite nauseous. Where is it?
Nyperold: (as Lister) Where's what?
Box: (as Kryten) Oh, sir!! You've got it in your jacket!!
Nyperold: (as Lister) I got us out of the hold, didn't I?
Box: (as Kryten) Sir, you are sick! You are a sick, sick person! How can you possibly even conceive of such an idea?
Nyperold: (as Lister) Cheer up! Or I'll beat you to death with the wet end!
Box: (as Kryten) Sir, if mechanoids could barf, I'd be onto my fifth bag by now. You're a sick person! Sick! Sick!

Lead me out with your light, I have breathed in,
The disgusting air of darkness, but I never lose out.

Eggman: The darkness has special air? Funny, I never noticed...

To the pressure, everything's just like,
An illusion, I'll be losing you, before long...

Nyperold: Would that be... foreshadowing?
All except Nyperold: (groan)
(Shadow throws a piece of licorice at him.)

I never lose my confidence,
I know you were supporting me,
Supporting me, supporting me,
I'll be losing you before long.

Nyperold: (pausing the machine) Well, time for a break. I'll go check on sis, and then I'll tell you about action scenes.

Part 2 coming someday...
