Summary
Story One
- "New Order"
In the six weeks following the annulment of Sonic's knighthood, Prince Elias set to work commissioning the construction of a new castle, hospital, prison, and public school for the kingdom. Sonic is frustrated by the prospect of having to go to school and the fact that he hasn't seen Sally in weeks. Bunnie assures him that they'll see each other at school, but Sonic wonders what she's doing. Meanwhile, at the castle, Sally stumbles across a picture of herself and Sonic while preparing for school. She reflects that she's been so busy with her family affairs that she hasn't had time for him when Geoffrey appears, telling her that her parents have requested her parents. Queen Alicia praises her son for his work and asks Sally to join the family as they look over the beautiful new Kingdom of Knothole.
Sonic's thoughts wander to Robotropolis, where the Overlanders are getting accustomed to Dr. Eggman's rule. In the palace, Colin Kintobor calls to his brother, complaining that he's spent the past six weeks entirely on his work instead of reconnecting with his family. Eggman relents, leading Colin and his family to a lounge. Lady Agnes questions if having the Shadowbots inside the city is necessary, but Eggman quickly assures her that if they weren't the "furries" would be able to get inside the city. Hope silently doubts her step-uncle's honesty while Colin tells Eggman that he's a better man than the one he knew before the war. Suddenly, the group is alerted to a civilian breaking curfew. On a monitor, they see Snively being escorted by Shadowbots.
Sonic and Tails prepare to go to sleep, still excited about the first day of school. Tails teases Sonic about his relationship with Sally before they eventually fall asleep. The next morning, the duo is startled from their slumber by a massive earthquake. They head into Knothole and save the citizens from falling construction equipment.
