HAAAAAAAAAAAA-
Well, now that we've sorted that out, what should we-
DYNA!!!
Wh-Volt?!
Sonic Man...Torch...they're gone!!!
Wait, where?!
I don't know!! And we still don't know where Orange or Diddy went!!
...
This isn't a coincidence anymore.
... (I don't care if they're underground, in space, or in another dimension. I will not rest until this uprising is over.)
HNGH!
I can't seem to find any traces of them anywhere...
Hmmmhh... (Hold on, what's that there?)
...that certainly wasn't there before. I'm suspicious that it's related to these recent disappearances...
And I'm certain that it is! Come on, guys!
Are you sure this is the place?
It has to be. This is the exact location the map picked up.
Hold on...
This must be it...
What the
?!?!

...!
You...WHAT DID YOU DO TO THEM?!?!
Stay away from me.
Your threats mean NOTHING to me, you mother-
It's not a threat. It's a warning.
HAUGAH!
Hep... ((Rip this straight from Sonic RPG 10) Dang! This guy's tough! (End) Now let's get serious!)
haaaaaaAAAAAAAH!!!
What happened to your friends...that was indeed my doing.
It's not a Nightmare Virus. It's Temporal Leakage.
Hnngh! (So you're here to drop another all-powerful corruption on us?! Even with Regulus gone we have more than enough to worry about!)
...this isn't powerful at all. Temporal Leakage has no positive effects whatsoever. There's a reason why your friends are still down here, instead of wreaking havoc on the surface.
Then why did you infect them?! And who are you?!
...
To answer your first question...I had no intention of doing so. But even wandering beneath the earth, my presence affected your friends, and all I could do was bring them here to try and help them.
As for your second question...
Long ago, I was the Robot Master Shadow Man...
...but with all that's happened since, I can't call myself that anymore.
AGH!
UAGH!!
(NOW ITS TIME I REALLY SHOW WHAT I AM!)
AGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ecolo, it was me. What I meant was that I infected them by accident.
Temporal Leakage follows me like a curse. That's why I told you to stay away; if you approached me, it would have affected you too.
I don't know what spell you speak of, but it long predates you.
...what kind of person are you?
A perfectly reasonable question. I'm not sure if I can give a perfect answer, but to provide as much as I can...
...I'll need this.
Wait, are you just going to do what Delta Dude did?
...not quite. But I certainly wish I could. In any case, let me show you.
