Recap / Sonic Rush Adventure

Sonic and Tails are tracking a mysterious, unknown source of energy in the Tornado, when they are sucked into a hurricane. The two then find themselves on an island, where a raccoon girl, named Marine, takes care of Sonic and Tails when they woke up. Marine tells our dynamic duo that she wants to go adventuring. So, Sonic and Tails set off for different islands, and the adventure begins.

Using materials of different jewels and metals, Tails builds a waterbike called the Wave Cyclone, which they use to sail to a jungle island and a machine island, collecting more materials as they go along to build a sailboat. While there, they encounter two evil robots (Ghost Rex and Ghost Pendulum), whom Sonic destroys in battle.

After Tails builds the sailboat, Ocean Tornado, they set sail for a small island. They run into a robot named Johnny, who believes he is the fastest, and races against Sonic. Sonic races Johnny a total of seven times in the course of the game, and Sonic receives a Chaos Emerald for winning each race.

When they arrive at an altar on the small island, an underwater cave called Coral Cave rises out of the water. Inside Coral Cave, they encounter a robotic pirate, Captain Whisker, and his minions Mini & Mum, as they steal the Jeweled Scepter. Suddenly, much to Sonic's surprise, Blaze the Cat arrives in an attempt to stop Whisker from taking the scepter. Both Sonic and Blaze are shocked to see each other, but Whisker sends a robot named Ghost Kraken after them. Although the robot is destroyed, Whisker escapes with the scepter.

When asking Blaze what she's doing here, she tells Sonic that she was going to ask the same thing. Sonic and Tails then have a shocking realization, the Tornado sent them to Blaze's world. Sonic and Blaze agree to work together and get the Jeweled Scepter back from Whisker. Tails builds a radar, which detects electromagnetic activity coming from an area where ghost ships are rumored to be. They go to the Haunted Ship and collect Silver Material, while fighting off Whisker's robot, Ghost Pirate. Whisker escapes again.

Tails then builds a hovercraft out of Blue, Iron, Green, Bronze, Red and Silver Materials, so they can go past obstacles to new areas, first going to Blizzard Peaks to ask the Vikings about the pirates. However, Whisker and his Ghost Whale have frozen the Vikings. Sonic and Blaze destroy Ghost Whale, and Blaze unfreezes the Vikings, who say that the pirates might be using an ancient ruin, which was once a city in the sky, as their hideout.

Heading east to an island where earthquakes are coming from, Sonic, Tails, Blaze, and Marine are blasted up to a floating island in the sky called Sky Babylon, where they confront Whisker and destroy his Ghost Condor. Whisker escapes, and Blaze reads an ancient monument which Whisker had intended to destroy, as it details the location to the pirates' hideout. As its entrance is underwater, Tails builds a submarine.

In the meantime, Blaze collects the Sol Emeralds.

They find the underwater cave, but can't get through a gold door into the pirates' hideout. However, Whisker, being extremely dim-witted, inadvertently tells them that they must align the symbols on the door and that there are three markers on separate islands giving clues as to do this. After finding the three markers on hidden islands, Sonic, Tails, and Blaze tell Marine to stay at Southern Island, as the upcoming battle with the pirates will be more dangerous than any challenge they've faced so far. Marine insists that she goes with them, and Blaze yells at her, and calls her a nuisance.

Sonic, Tails, and Blaze return to the gold door and enter Pirates' Island, where they confront Whisker and Johnny, who is revealed to be Whisker's first mate. Sonic and Blaze defeat Whisker and Johnny, who escape to the ocean through a hole in the ground, mentioning working for a boss. Marine, hoping to prove her value as a captain, chases the pirates to their ship, the Big Swell, but is captured by Whisker. Tails tricks Whisker into thinking the scepter is somewhere else on the ship, distracting him and allowing Sonic and Blaze to rescue Marine from Whisker's ultimate robot, Ghost Titan. In an intense battle, Sonic and Blaze destroy Ghost Titan, and the resulting explosion engulfs the entire ship and the pirates, sinking them while Sonic, Blaze, Tails, and Marine escape.

Marine revealed that she took the Jeweled Scepter from Whisker while on the ship, and gives it to Blaze, who returns it to Coral Cave. Afterward, Tails plans to use the Chaos and Sol Emeralds' power to build a device to return to their dimension. However, the Jeweled Scepter is stolen again, and when everyone rushes outside, they see that the thieves are Dr. Eggman and Eggman Nega, who are working together to unleash the power of the Jeweled Scepter with something called the "Power of the Stars", which they recently discovered is located below Southern Island. They created Whisker to do most of the work for them, but as Whisker is gone, they stole the scepter themselves.

Tails builds a machine called the Magma Hurricane, which digs below underground. Piloting a mech called the Egg Wizard, Eggman and Eggman Nega unleash the power of the Jeweled Scepter and become nearly unstoppable. Sonic and Blaze use the Chaos and Sol Emeralds to transform into Super Sonic and Burning Blaze, and they fight Eggman and Eggman Nega. Much to Eggman's horror, Eggman Nega tries to blow up the world, but Marine stops him by shooting the Egg Wizard with a green energy ball. Blaze knocks the Egg Wizard into the air and Sonic slams through Eggman Nega's cockpit, blowing up the Egg Wizard.

At the end Sonic & Blaze found out that the emeralds brought them together once again, and didn't threaten to destroy both worlds this time because they were stable (and not abused by Eggman and Eggman Nega as they were before) and always seem to want Sonic and Blaze to win. Tails makes a ship to bring Sonic and Tails home (called the SS Tornado EX) and Sonic & Blaze once again promised to meet again one day. As they depart from the island, Marine comes with her new boat and thanks them for their times together and hopes to see them again someday as Sonic and Tails fly off.
