Transcript

 * (episode opens with Sonic battling Robotnik in San Francisco)
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: (narrating) Sometimes, I like to joke that this is just another day in my life. Besides running around the world to see its greatest wonders... I'm also having to deal with this psychotic Eggman who's been so obsessed with power. And on this case, my ability to run faster than the Speed of Sound. More recently, people are asking to have him disappear from this planet and never come back. (as he is heard narrating, Sonic picks a ring) So today, I'll be doing these people a favor. (uses the ring to open a portal for the Mushroom Planet)
 * Dr. Robotnik: Another one of your teleportation rings, Hedgehog? Are you just gonna disappear from my sight again?
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: Just for your information, Eggman... (speeds around Robotnik's hovercraft, creating a electromagnetic tornado which short-circuits the hovercraft) I'm not leaving Earth. (powers-up his quills) You are!
 * Dr. Robotnik: Wait, what...? (stares at the portal, which is behind him)
 * Cubot: (seeing the portal) Do you think he's actually planning to...?
 * Orbot: (sees Sonic) Oh, he is. (Sonic boosts towards the Egg Pod) And he's doing it! (Folds into his compressed. Cubot panics and does the same)
 * Dr. Robotnik: (notices Sonic and gasps when Sonic curls into a Spin Attack, landing a powerful blow to the Egg Pod and sending it towards the portal) NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
 * (as his scream echoes, Robotnik and his hovercraft are pushed into the portal before it closes, and the crowd cheers on Sonic)
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: (narrating) And a favor, I've just done for these people. (Sonic salutes the crowd before leaving. Next, we see him in a hill) It's been quite fun here in San Francisco. But I guess now, it's time to leave for somewhere else. Somewhere like... (sees a picture of London, England in his phone) I was thinking of maybe Hawaii. But, let's try this one. (speeds up into his cave, and gathers all his belongings) If there's something exciting to do, or someone interesting to meet... then, London is the new home.
 * (scene cuts to Lara Croft, wearing her jungle suit, running in a jungle of England.)
 * Lara Croft: (narrating) The jungle. A place where humans don't always tend to dwell. But still... the ideal playground for an true adventurer. And also he work place of an archeologist. Pretty much what my father was before he died. And what I've been aspiring to be in his memory. My name is Lara Croft. And I've been looking for certain artifacts... well, for some time now. (we see her entering a cave) And on places that where left behind for so long ago. (as she is heard narrating, Lara further explores the cave, eventually discovering the tombs of knights from Medieval times) And places almost no one knew they existed.
 * (after some more exploring, Lara discovers a small wooden chest. She opens it and sees dozens of golden rings in it)
 * Lara Croft: (picks up one of the rings) Oh, that's pretty lovely. (she closes the chest and puts it in her backpack. Then, she sees drawings in the walls, detailing a ring wielder throwing one of the rings, and opening portals with them. Lara stares at the ring she picked up) Would it be that simple? (she tosses the ring towards a wall, and the ring quickly elongates to bigger portions and becomes a portal to an office in the top of a building, and Lara becomes astonished) My goodness! (she enters the portal, stopping by the office, and sees New York City through the window. Inspecting a desk, she discovers that the building she is in is Natla Corporation's central headquarters) Jacqueline Natla... (as she sets up numerous invisible cameras around the office, Lara is heard narrating) said to be one of New York City's richest women. But I also know there's something else she hides. Undoubtedly an evil like no other. If not worse than that other madman Dr. Robotnik from San Francisco as I heard of.
 * (just as she sets up the last camera, Lara hears someone coming, and rushes into the Ring Portal right before it closes. Entering the office is Natla, who is at the time speaking with her associate Larson Stone)
 * Jacqueline Natla: This better be important.
 * Larson Stone: (radio voice) Still seekihg the secrets of the Golden Realm, I presume?
 * Jacqueline Natla: Any updates about it?
 * Larson Stone: (radio voice) I've managed to convince the board of education of Wimbledon High School to let me be their students' guide for their field trip tomorrow. This could be a fine opportunity to explore the island's secrets, couldn't it? Especially with your intern Amanda Everett, who could serve us well in our mission.
 * (scene cuts to Lara, who is watching and listening to everything through her cameras)
 * Jacqueline Natla: Yes. And maybe even take advantage of her petty hatred for the Crofts' child would be optional.
 * Larson Stone: And "petty", you say. You don't seem to care for her well-being so much, don't you?
 * Jacqueline Natla: Why should I be any concerned? She's nothing more than a pawn in a game she has no idea is being played.
 * (as Natla ends her conversation with Stone, Lara keeps the evidence recorded in her phone)
 * Lara Croft: She might not know, Natla. But I do. And there's no way you'll make a fool of me. (she moves on)
 * (scene cuts to Sonic sitting in a ship sailing from San Francisco to London, he is getting a phone call from his girlfriend)
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: Yeah, San Francisco's been a nice place to live in. But as you and I both knew, Sal... it was time to move on...
 * Sally Acorn: (phone voice) Like other five places you've been living in since we've left Mobius. Starting with Tokyo, if I remember well... Still, it's a really fine decision you're making, Sonic. Because as always, you're still travelling around the world.
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: Yeah. I surely am. (scene cuts to Sally, who is in a tribal village; phone voice) So how are things going in the Golden Realm?
 * Sally Acorn: Pretty good, thank you so kindly for asking... our boy Gabriel is still contributing for his adoptive tribe. And he's become a really natural hunter. And also... we're still hiding from the T-Rex King. He hasn't stopped watching humans ever since that crew from Natla Corporation showed up.
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: (phone voice) Definitely not good. (scene shifts back to Sonic, who is reading a newspaper) And it'll make get a bit worse tomorrow. News says that a group of high school girls from London are gonna have a field trip in the Golden Realm. Worse than that... the guy who's signed up to be their guide: Larson Stone.
 * Sally Acorn: (phone voice) The same guy who worked with Robotnik before?
 * 'Sonic the Hedgehog: Yeah, that one.
 * (scene shifts to Lara in the cave, where she encounters a golden crown)
 * Lara Croft: Magnificent! It's going to make a fine addition to my collection. (hears a group of thieves coming) If those street rats won't steal it from me, that is. (pauses for a moment. Then, she picks a ring from the wooden chest) I pray for this ring to bring me back home soon enough. (throws the ring, which opens a portal to the street where the Croft Manor is located) Mother once said: it's life or death. (she leaps into the portal, which closes immediately before the thieves arrive. We see Lara arriving in the entrance of her home, and she checks the ring chest witb a smile) That was splendid!
 * (meanwhile, Sally checks her computer, which detects Ring Portal radiation. Then, we see Sonic rushing around London)
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: (his phone rings and he answers) Yeah, Sally?
 * Sally Acorn: (phone voice) Do you have time for a checkup? My satellite just detected Ring Portal radiation. And it did not come from your rings.
 * (cut to the Croft Manor, where Lara's friends Lin Chang and Sophie Fletcher are inspecting the collected crown and the ring chest)
 * Lin Chang: So, you just thought of the place, and those rings took you there?
 * Lara Croft: Yes, I know it seemed too simple... (as she speaks, Sonic arrives and detects the rings in Lara's possession. He spies on the three girls from a window) but apparently that's how they worked.
 * Sophie Fletcher: And more apparently, they work better as long as the wielder has at least seen the place. Yes?
 * Lara Croft: That's what I thought as well, Sophie. Although I'm still not sure if I mastered them so much.
 * Lin Chang: (smiling at Lara) Still... look on the bright side, Lara. Whatever those rings are, or what they can do, you now have a better benefit to become that archeologist you dreamed to be. Just like your father.
 * (while they continue talking, the girls are oblivious to Sonic's presence, as he is seen speeding up away from the window)
 * Lara Croft: You're pretty right, Lin. That would truly be possible. (stares at a portray of herself as a child with her parents and makes a sad face) And to be honest... I only wish they were here. To see all this... (referring to her collection of treasures) and other things I've...
 * (she is almost crying until Lin and Sophie comfort her. Outside, Sonic phones Sally)
 * Sally Acorn: (phone voice) Did you find the source?
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: Yep. And you are not gonna believe who's got the rings: the Crofts' girl.
 * Sally Acorn: (phone voice) You mean Lara Croft? Really? Wow. When people said she was aspiring to be an archeologist and adventurer like her father was, they actually meant that.
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: Yep. No doubt about it. (he then speeds into the Manor, and stays on the outside watching Lara and her friends through the windows) Now, all that's left to wonder is: what will she do next?
 * (we see Lara with her friends)
 * Lin Chang: (sees the picture of the Golden Realm in her phone) So are you willing to join the field trip? Would make a fine opportunity for some more archaeology. Don't you think?
 * Lara Croft: Yes. It most certainly would. (Sonic then rushes, causing a whooshing which alerts the girls) Did you hear that?
 * (they inspect the Manor from outside, but nothing or no one is there; then, Lara inspects one of Sonic's quills; Sonic is seen watching Lara from the top of a tree. Next day, Lara, Lin and Sophie are with their classmates (all wearing safari jungle outfits) taking the boat to their field trip)
 * Valerie: (criticizing her own outfit) Ugh! Do I really must wear this?! I'm looking too much like a boy in this trash of outfit!
 * Lara Croft: Hush, Valerie. You'll be home to wear your lovely dresses as soon as this field trip is over.
 * (Valerie is annoyed, but sighs. And the students sail on the boat, Amanda is contacted by Natla)
 * Amanda Everett: I hear you, boss. Just the way you planned. (ends her transmission and spots Lara with her friends) (to herself) And for sure, if everything goes according to the plan, that Croft princess will never show her face around this world ever again.
 * (the students board in while Sonic stows away in the boat. He also spies on Stone, who is at the time secretly speaking with Robotnik, who is shown in holographic form)
 * Dr. Robotnik: If what you say about the Golden Realm is true, then I'll be rescheduling my priorities with that blue little alien, and move on with the Realm's beasts.
 * Larson Stone: Such a fine idea, Doctor. And to ease your choices for the best subject, I would reccomend to you the island's most feared predator: the T-Rex King. Hard, but not impossible to defeat. And once tamed, he'll become the one kind of weapon of which not even that silly little alien will be able to stop.
 * Dr. Robotnik: Hmm, it seems promising. I'll consider that. Report back to me if you have any updates.
 * (ends transmission as Stone smiles diabolically, and Sonic, having recorded everything with his phone, posts the video for Sally)
