Shadow was standing easily on the right wing of the plane as it flew through the air. He eyed the would-be battlefield below, and spotted the wolf-dog. He launched a single well aimed chaos spear at Baron, before they sped out of site. "That mutt was tracking us before, he might be doing it now!" Shadow told Tails, shouting to be heard over the noise of the plane.
"So." Robotnik hissed through the mike at Baron. "After all the support I gave you, given all the tools you posses, and the fact that this was your second and last chance, you still managed to screw up?! You really didn't consider that they might try to escape?!" Robotnik slammed his fists down on the armrests of his throne, completely losing his cool. "What do you think I pay yo-... What do you think I allow you to live for!" he spat into the mike. "You're demoted! Banished!! You will not be allowed to live on my domains - that is, anywhere on the planet - until you bring back at least one of those fools!" Robotnik shut off communications. He stood up. "Prepare the rodent for an hour of two of torturing, and open the screens. Watching that hedgehog squirm always cheers me up."
