In spite of Antoine's complaints, Sonic refuses to slow down and tells Sally he's eager to leap right into the action. Fortunately, he refrains on this occasion when they spot the Eggbots with a large excavating machine. Antoine catches up and loudly greets his friends, nearly blowing their cover. Sonic quickly silences him and points out the Eggbots. Sally checks the area with NICOLE, picking up a power signature on the dig site and another nearby. She wanders off on her own and discovers the source: a large metal crypt. Antoine accuses Sonic of acting stupidly, and Sonic questions Antoine's bravery in turn. Sally, meanwhile, manages to open the doors to the crypt and discovers a living being inside. The creature reveals that he was sealed inside ten years ago by Dr. Robotnik, whom he claims turned him into the most powerful cyborg on Mobius. Back at the dig site, Antoine suggests that Sonic create a diversion while he and Sally investigate, only for Sonic to realize that Sally has vanished. The cyborg, having finished recapping his backstory, introduces himself to Sally as Monkey Khan. "Monkey Madness" - Chapter Two In the Devil's Gulag, Snively requests a report from his Eggbots, who radio to their master that the Atom Drill successfully penetrated the outer crust on their dig site. The nature of the energy source is revealed to be an extremely strong Power Ring. Snively is dissatisfied, having hoped to locate Ixis Naugus. To the surprise of the robots, however, the ring floats out of its resting place and flies over to rest on the head of Monkey Khan. Khan converts the ring into a crown and unleashes his fury, summoning a cloud to ride upon and utilizing its electrical abilities to destroy the Atom Drill and attack the Eggbots. Snively, overhearing the scuffle, decides to dispatch more Eggbots to deal with Khan. Sally tries to explain the situation to her friends, but when Sonic hears that Khan was given powers by Robotnik he decides to attack. Khan is quick to fight back, but soon finds himself smitten with Sally when she tries to break up the battle. He swoops down and carries her off, ignoring her protests, while Antoine takes advantage of the opportunity to chastise Sonic for his lack of diplomatic skills. The duo chases after Khan, but runs into more of Snively's Eggbots. "Monkey Madness" - Chapter Three Sonic and Antoine continue to argue while fighting the Eggbots. Despite being frustrated with Sonic's ego, Antoine saves him from falling into the pit dug by the Eggbots, and the two continue battling their robotic foes with their backs to it. Elsewhere, Monkey Khan attempts to woo Sally, only to be shot down for his egotistical attitude and informed that it stands in the way of his potential to actually be heroic. Back at the battle site, Sonic borrows Antoine's sword and uses it to destabilize the ground beneath the Eggbots, toppling them into a pit. Despite the victory, the two Freedom Fighters remain pinned-until Khan and Sally return, the former using his lightning powers to fry several remaining Eggbots by way of an apology to Sonic. The Hedgehog then dispatches the few surviving units, and Snively agonizes over losing his troops. Khan and Sonic part as friends, Sally having helped Khan realize their similarities-though both could stand in need of improvement. The Monkey then takes off to enjoy his long-awaited release from captivity, while Sonic remarks that he wouldn't mind a vacation himself.
