Sonic manages to escape from the space station and returns to Earth where he meets up with Tails. Tails tells Sonic that Little Planet is about to make its annual return. Sonic has a quick flashback to the events of Sonic CD to when he first arrived there and how he battled Metal Sonic and met (and rescued) Amy Rose for the first time. Sonic and Tails decide to head to Little Planet, but unbeknownst to them, Eggman is already planning to exact his revenge on Sonic, by reviving Sonic's only rival in speed, Metal Sonic.
