Mystic Ruins

Main areas

The main area is large grassy plateau with some buildings and trees. One side leads to a steep cliff into the ocean, and on the other side is a mountain with various caves. A hill is located in the eastern part of it.

* Train station - A tall wooden building with stairs that leads to a stone bridge where the train waits for passengers to take to Station Square. Inside the building is a ladder that leads to a raft that takes people to the Egg Carrier.

* Tails' Workshop - A small two-story house located on a hill. It has with a long biplane runway with two rows of palm trees leading out into the ocean. The workshop is apparently connected to a cave beneath the house, where Tails works on his Tornado 2.

* Lake - A small lake with a waterfall leading to it and a river leading into the ocean. A Silver Chao Egg can be discovered by pushing against a panel.

* Caves - The west caves lead to Angel Island. The east caves lead to an upgrade for Knuckles and the Mystic Ruins Chao Garden.

* Chao Garden - A large grassy area on the side of a mountain. There is a lake and several large rocks lying about. The lake is connected to a larger one which is above the waterfall, it is there where Chaos 4 was fought.

* Windy Valley - An windy Action Stage where tornadoes easily form. The second part of the stage consists of floating paths high above the clouds.

Jungle areas

The jungle area is a maze-like area with many paths through a large jungle. Several archaeologists are lost there.

* Big's Hut - A small wooden structure where Big the Cat lives.

* Echidna Temple - A large maya-like temple that used to be the holy site of the Echidnas. It is the portal to Lost World.

* Lost World - An Action Stage set inside the temple. It is extremely large, and one part somehow features an outside section that looks nothing like the jungle. The temple also contains various booby traps such as a giant rolling stone ball and gravity panels that move on the wall. The center of the temple contains a mural of Perfect Chaos.

* Sand Hill - A long desert slope with various ruins which burst from the ground. (Could be Sandopolis as it's in the direction of Angel Island.)

* Final Egg - Eggman's large tower base, where he keeps his Egg Carrier and Egg Viper. It is entered via a long tube in the jungle, this is the base that the first of the E-100 series was created. The base is heavily defended and has three sectors, the first is simple pathways with spinning iron, spike balls and grinding mechanisms. The second drastically changes from the first, it is basically a large shaft that leads downwards, three tunnels lead to different levels and at the bottom there are more spinning masses. The last is similar to the first, except for three large rooms containing exploding crabs as well as pitfalls.

Greys assignment was to find an ancient artifact in the ruins that held ancient powers. He arrived at the train station to begin his journy to the final egg were the artifact was last seen

Knuckles yawned and streached out on top of the temple roof and watched the clouds, trying in vain to stay awake

Grey ran top speed to the master emerald to find kunx he might know were the artifact is

Karath surfed on a small wave up to the shore. He wandered off from his life home for the first time. "Hmm.. Some times things have to change I guess." He said in a grumpy voice, knowing that he could never go back to his childhood home.

Knules yawned and rolled over on the roof and rolled off waking up as he fell and landed on his feet and sat leaned against the temple wall

Karath saw a red figure fall from the roof of a building and darted off as fast as he can, using water to make ice bridges for a short cut. "Hey man. I just saw you fall, you ganna be okay?"

Knuckles raised his head and looked at the stranger " yeah ill be fine i fall off things when im sleeping all the time" he said looking him over "names Knuckles" he said extending his hand

Karath looked up at Knuckles with a slight smile, he never knew he would meet someone so fast after leaving his home. "I am Karath, but some just call me Wrath." He shook Knuckles hand. "Nice too meet you."

Knuckles smirked and looked at him " i warn you now before she shows up, watch out for a neko, she likes to tackle" he said laughing " nice meeting you as well"

A.J huffed tackling knuckles as she mewed before looking up smiling,"HI names A.J"she grinned swishing her tail as she nuzzled knuckles before getting up,"I love you too knuckles"

KNuckles smiled sheepishly " this is Wrath" he said smiling again" you know i love you but you do have a tendency to tackle people" he remarked nipping her neck, after standing again

A.J stuck her tongue out as she smiled,"So you all love it"she smirked before rising her brow,"Peguin?"she blinked tilting her head,"You wait till we get home knuckles your gonna pay"

KNuckles rolled his eyes "we shall see kitten"

A.J pouted looking away

KNuckles chuckled" have i told you how cute you look when you pout?"

A.J eyed him,"Your not getting out of your punsiment when we get home mister"

"Ooo...kay, I am going to stay FAR out of that. But yes, I am a penguin. As you can plainly see. Nice to meet you." Wrath smiled and went to shake A.J.'s hand. "By the way, what is there to do for fun around here?" He smiled half heartedly.

Grey teleported to Knux in a golden arora " hey Knux I need your .. Hello " grey turned around and saw a little penguin

A.J growled at grey narrowing her eyes,"I swear to god if you take him away and i don't get sex Grey i will cut off your manhood and shove it down your throat"she hissed as her eyes flickered to a golden color. Tail swishing behind her body quickly. "Alot..well i mainly annoy lover here and try to murder people. But seeing as i can't keep you as a pet im upset"she huffed
