Sonic Battle: Story Mode Part 12: Cream Episode Part 2/2: Fighting for Your Friends
Cream, Cheese, and Emerl headded towards the Duct of Gimme Shelter to finally make their escape from Eggman's base.
However, it was guarded by Chaos Gamma, who was very eager to defeat the Gizoid and get rewarded for it. He was now powered by an Emerald Shard.
Emerl made Cream hide behind him as he took every attack Gamma swung at him without fighting back. He thought he made Cream too upset with him about fighting earlier, so now he's stopped.
However, Cream was disturbed by this, and chances were looking like Emerl would be destroyed if he didn't fight back soon... He even wanted Cream to run for her life...
Suddenly, of all characters, CHEESE had an idea!
Somehow or another, Cheese convinced Cream that they should work together and fight back to protect Emerl!
----------
Cream is... potentially one of the best characters in this whole game, and it's mostly based on how she uses Cheese to fight.
Her Omochao Bomb hits incredibly hard. She also has one of the better Heals in the game if going by normal characters.
----------
Together, Cream & Cheese fought back against Chaos Gamma, but Gamma was ready to increase his power output, forcing them and Emerl to escape while Gamma continued to guard the Duct.
Cream was upset that she took so long to finally fight alongside Emerl, but Emerl cheered her up by showing how easily he can recover from his damage.
Knowing that Cream & Cheese were now willing to fight, Emerl wanted to put them through some training sessions in order to make them stronger against Chaos Gamma.
----------
After these training sessions, they heard a familiar voice from the Computer. It was Sonic! Eggman was getting close to trapping him, because he didn't believe that Eggman had captured Cream and Emerl.
They needed to escape through that Duct NOW, and thanks to their training, they were more confident than every to take on Chaos Gamma.
They fought the robot together, but Gamma didn't give up. He even had a Guard Robo assist him! This is the only battle where you'll fight both Gamma and one of his gray copies.
----------
But it was not enough. Chaos Gamma was utterly beaten.
As the robot was losing itself, it cried out for revenge against Emerl. He desired to take back the Chaos Emerald Emerl took from him. Cream thought otherwise, and told the robot that it shouldn't fight for revenge but to protect those near and dear to you.
As Chaos Gamma fell apart, it yielded the 5th Emerald Shard that the team needed to form a full Chaos Emerald, which was then promptly absorbed by Emerl, giving him 6 Chaos Emeralds in his systems.
He was nearing his completion...
----------
Eggman had realized that all of his latest robots have been defeated. Before the team went into hiding, Emerl saw a familiar switch that was used against Knuckles earlier...
It activated Eggman's Spiky Rodent Trap... on Eggman, himself!
Emerl then went to the Computer, allowing Sonic to watch and enjoy Eggman make a fool out of himself in his own trap meant for him.
Knowing now that Eggman was telling the truth about capturing Cream, Cheese, and Emerl, he was ready to go pick them up from the Gimme Shelter.
However, Emerl decided to use his new powers to take themselves out of the base on their own, allowing them to finally escape and return home in one piece.
Eggman was still in his own trap. Who knows how long it will take for him to get himself out of it...
----------
The next episode is the penultimate episode of the game's Story Mode, and it stars Shadow! Mostly...
Stay tuned for that!
