Story

 * "Living Waepons"

Shadow the Hedgehog and Metal Sonic are transported by Chaos Control to another zone above the ocean. Shadow attempts to make Metal Sonic join sides with him but the robot kicks him into the water and expects him to drown, but Shadow swims back up and is saved by Blaze the Cat and Marine the Raccoon on the Ocean Tornado.

Shadow then explains to them that he has been fighting Metal Sonic through various zone because of its special engine and Shadow's Chaos Control abilities. Blaze tells Shadow about how she knows Sonic the Hedgehog, her mission to recover the Sol Emeralds and how Marine met with Sonic and Tails and their battle with Captain Whishers crew, with Marine claiming she had gone "all crazy on them and saved the day!".

They then pull into the nearest port to find Metal Sonic attacking the villagers. Blaze attacks Metal bet he proves immune to her pyrokinesis and attacks her. Shadow then tries using Chaos Control again, but Metal resists him.

Marine then tries to take down Metal Sonic by grabbing on to his head and punching it, making it all the more difficult for the others to land a hit on Metal with Marine in the way.

Metal throws Marine off him and Shadow tries to convince Metal to rebel against Eggman and help save Mobius, but Metal says that Shadow's mission is to protect Mobius. That that is his function. Metal says that his function is to "serve Dr. Robotnik. Both living weapons. Both operating to achieve their function. You are not different. You simply have an opposing function. This unit must destroy you. You must destroy this unit." Shadow then, regretfully, tells Blaze to distract him with her pyrokinesis so he can attack Metal.

Metal then went flying into the air and was destroyed by Marine using the cannons of the Ocean Tornado, destroying the engine along with it.

Shadow asks Marine to build him a boat like she did Sonic and Tails, but admits that Tails asctually built it and she "oversaw development". Blaze then gives Shadow a Chaos Emerald to pay the debt owed to Sonic for helping her.

Shadow then teleports back to G.U.N. HQ were Commander Tower and Hope Kintobor are waiting. The Commander admires Shadow for completing the mission to retrieve a Chaos Emerald and tells him to rest up for his next mission.
