  • Sonic and Tails arrive in the Southern Tundra, convinced that they've reached their final destination in the search for Ixis Naugus. Tails, however, is worried about how they'll escape the frigid wasteland. The Power Ring that allowed the Winged Victory to fly lost its power when they landed, leaving them with no way to leave the tundra. Sonic encourages his friend, knowing that Naugus will try to manipulate their fears in the coming battle. While Sonic gives Tails a pep talk, the duo is secretly being watched; high above the planet another mysterious satellite activates, locking on to its targets below. Sonic and Tails are suddenly caught in a small avalanche and quickly identify the culprit: Naugus. The dark wizard mocks the heroes, claiming that they are helpless without the Sword of Acorns to aid them. Sonic nicks him with a snowball, but flies right through the wizard when attempting to charge him directly. Naugus reveals that he can transform into any of the four major elements: Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water. Sonic nearly runs off a cliff, but soon leaps back up when he hears Tails cry for help. When Sonic arrives, he finds Tails frozen solid in a block of ice with a monstrous figure firing a flamethrower at the frozen fox. Thinking the monster is attacking Tails, Sonic retaliates while an amused Naugus wagers that the large Mutate will easily defeat the hedgehog. Just then, a massive avalanche is triggered just above the group, burying all four of them. The Mutate emerges with a senseless Sonic and Tails in tow, using his cybernetic legs to fly up to a large fortress built into the nearby mountain. Entering a laboratory inside, the creature is hailed by a diminutive Overlander who addresses him as Eddy. Examining the unconscious pair, the Overlander determines that they couldn't have been responsible for an earlier attack on the castle. Sonic and Tails wake up and the Overlander is startled, mistaking Sonic for Jules Hedgehog. Sonic demands answers, only for Eddy's flamethrower to activate and produce a flaming mass that transforms into Naugus. Naugus identifies the Overlander as Nate Morgan and declares that he is the key to taking control of Mobius.
