‘And the rest is history, dudes,’ finished the hedgehog. ‘Robotnik stuck the Emeralds into outer space, in the Warps of Confusion, and tried to take over the planet. I stopped him. Then a few years later he tried again, but Tails had turned up by that time, an orphan like me, and we stopped him together.’

‘Awesomely!’ squealed the excited fox.

‘Then somehow he got his time-travel gear and now he's having another go,’ Sonic said. ‘I just hope it's not third time lucky, or we're sunk.’

Jay had been listening intently to all this. Now she uncrossed her legs and swung them down to the floor. ‘You said you had a plan. Where does that fit in?’

‘Ah,’ Sonic said. ‘I had this totally excellent idea that we could stop all this nonsense before it ever starts. You've got two of those Gauss-Coyne time machines now, right? And it's a prototype, right, so you only really need one for testing. So give us the one Robotnik made, the copy, and zap us back to Mobius in the here-and-now. Then we'll zip back to the laboratory —’

‘Robotnik's laboratory?’ asked Kay.

‘Nope, Kintobor's!’ Sonic said. ‘Tails and I, we'll stop the ROCC machine exploding. Wipe out! Kintobor never gets villainified into Robotnik, so Robotnik never steals your Gauss-Coyne time machine and never makes his copy of it, so the one we've got vanishes away, like it was never there — because it wasn't. Bingo! No more Robotnik, history sets itself right again because he wasn't there to change it, and Mobius is back to normal. It's actually one of your time paradox loop spiral things, but you don't notice because you don't actually know where Mobius is, and we don't notice because for us time will continue as normal. Excellent!’

Kay looked dubious. ‘What's the alternative?’ she said.

Jay looked up from the notebook where she had been scribbling calculations. ‘According to my projections, if Robotnik's time alterations continue at their present rate, he'll be thinking about trying to take over the entire universe in about three days' time. If the Time Police try to stop him, with their present rate of success —’

‘Which is zero,’ Tails said helpfully.

‘Precisely zero,’ Jay repeated, ‘then he'll succeed. Anything's got to be better than that, and I estimate that Sonic's plan has a 77.23% chance of working.’

‘The Time Police might get better,’ grumbled Kay.

‘Not if they're going to be busy fending off the mythos creatures,’ Sonic pointed out.

‘Even if they weren't, I estimate their chances of improvement at —’ Jay jotted figures, ‘— roughly 1.45%. Not good. Okay Sonic, you've got approval, and a one-use only licence to travel through time. Do it more than once and the Time Police will be really annoyed.’ She smirked at the hedgehog, who grinned back, sharing the joke.

‘The time machines are on the back of my bike,’ continued Jay. ‘You'd better get Agent Orange to help you program it — he's the only one who really understands how they work.’

‘Yeah!’ agreed Tails. ‘Last time we tried to use it, we ended up inside a couple of dinosaur eggs.
