->'''Sonic:''' ''That's'' what all of this was about? You had Eggman make you a bunch of machines, nearly destroyed Soleanna, ruined Silver's future, ''tried to kill my friends'' '''''an insane amount of times''''', all so you guys could destroy the world just because some ''prophecy'' told you to?\\
'''Haumea:''' Oh, it's more than just that, Sonic. A long, long time ago, Solaris gave our ancestors a vision. He realized that the humans had no intention of worshipping him or his might, so he was choosing them to rid the world of all the filth that dared to defy him. And all we've been doing is following in their footsteps. Getting that fat boy Eggman to help us was nothing more than a little stepping stone we needed to get where we are now. We were one step closer to fulfilling the prophecy Solaris gave our ancestors...and then you and your Freedom Fighters showed up. Ever since you showed up, you've been haunting our every move, setting us back when you're supposed to helping us.\\
'''Sonic:''' ''Help you?'' '''''Who said I was supposed to help you guys?'''''\\
'''Haumea:''' Why, Solaris did! He told our ancestors that the heretics would be purged from the world once the wind, the flames and the light came into our hands. We had both the flames and the light, but the wind kept eluding us for many years...and then ''you'' came here.\\
'''Sonic:''' Wha-what exactly do I have to do with you, the Iblis Triggers, Mephiles, killing Elise; ''what do I have to do with any of this?''\\
'''Haumea:''' Oh, you know exactly what. When you came to Soleanna, the Lights of Solaris blessed you with the power of the winds themselves. When we saw you use your Light against us, we thought the day had come at last, that you, the one with fur as blue as the sky itself, would give us the missing piece of the puzzle we needed to fulfill Solaris's wishes at lat. But instead, you've using them to stop us.\\
'''Sonic:''' Heh, heck yeah, I've been trying to stop you!\\
'''Haumea:''' Come on, Sonic. You know that there's no other way your endless battles with the doctor will end for good.\\
'''Sonic:''' What?\\
'''Haumea:''' You think we hadn't noticed? The doc's been whining about you ever since you showed up. He may have seen a nuisance, but we see something so much more in you. The flames lie with Elise, but she only wants to protect her pathetic little home, and the light lies with Shadow, but he's dedicated his life to protecting the rest of this filthy world all because someone who's been dead for years wanted him to. But you...you could be different.\\
'''Sonic:''' What do you mean by that?\\
'''Haumea:''' You could join us, Sonic. You could join me. Your friends, the Princesses, Shadow- they trust you. They look up to you. They worship you. ''You're practically a god to them.'' You could even convince them that joining us in our quest to cleanse this worthless little mud ball could be the way to end your war with Eggman for good. This is a perfect opportunity to end it once and for all staring you right in the face. I mean, be honest, you really don't wanna spend the rest of your days fighting the fat man forever, do you?\\
'''Sonic:''' Not really...but what about Silver?\\
'''Haumea:''' ''Forget about Silver.'' He's always been in this to put an end to our plans ever since he got here. He'll be nothing but a footnote...'''''just like he's always been, and always will be.''''' So what do you say? Don't be like Elise and Shadow. Give up on the hero thing. Join us, Sonic. Join us in burning this world to ashes. Join me. Be my King...and we'll be together, dancing in the flames of righteous judgment...''forever''.\\
(Beat)\\
'''Haumea:''' So, Sonic, what'll it be? Will you join us in purging this hopeless world? Will you help us finish what our ancestors started all those years ago? Will you join us...join me...in fulfilling the prophecy that the great god Solaris gave our ancestors? What do you say...my king?\\
'''Sonic:'''...you know...you're right about a few things. My friends do trust me. And Eggman's definitely gotta go down. And I guess the princesses have warmed up to me.\\
'''Haumea:''' I hear a "but" coming up.\\
'''Sonic:''' However...considering the options, ''the fact'' that ''I'll be betraying that trust by joining you guys'', ''the fact'' that ''I'll be putting my friends in danger by helping you people out in doing this'', ''the fact'' ''that I could never look my Uncle Chuck or my friends in the eyes again'' '''''knowing I sold out to you''''', '''and''' ''the'' '''''undeniable fact''''' that it appears ''the only people interested in making this prophecy come true are'' '''''a bunch of super-powered psychopaths'''''...I think that ''you, Mephiles, and your buddies can take your little "prophecy"'' '''''and shove it up your butts!'''''\\
'''Haumea:''' W-what?! You're given the perfect opportunity to end your battle with Eggman for good...and you're welching out on it ''just because the hero schtick is'' '''''so ingrained in your brain that you won't help us fulfill the prophecy?!''''' '''''DOES THIS PROPHECY, THIS MISSION, THIS BLESSING THAT SOLARIS GAVE US MEAN NOTHING TO YOU?!?'''''\\
'''Sonic:''' Honestly, I never cared about it to begin with. It was never about stopping you from fulfilling it for me. '''''A hedgehog's just gotta do what a hedgehog's gotta do.''''' And what this hedgehog's gonna do is...so long as there's evil out there...I'll always be there to put the kibosh on it, ''even if I get axed off trying!''\\
'''Haumea:''' You, you, you...Mephiles warned me you'd turn your back on this. I told him that he was wrong, that you'd see it our way, that there was a chance our light, my light would touch your heart and bring you to us...because I loved you...I loved you, so, so much...but I guess I was wrong about you. You're just like that brat Elise and that idiot Shadow!\\
'''Sonic:''' Hey, if wanting to keep the world safe makes me an idiot, then I guess I failed high school...except for gym.\\
'''Haumea:''' ''You've had it.'' I'll make you regret this, Sonic. I'll make you wish you joined us when you had the chance. I'll make you regret your decision ''the instant my hot lava chews through your fur, melts your limbs off, melts your ribs open and immolates your intestines, seeping into your neck'' '''''as you scream in agony, burning through your body as I ignore your pleas for mercy and spread your ashes on the burning earth like jelly on toast!''''' '''''I'LL MAKE YOU RUE THE DAY YOU CHOSE TO BE THE LEGENDARY MR. NEEDLEMOUSE, PROTECTOR OF THE WORLD, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!!!!'''''\\
'''Sonic:''' '''''[[PreAsskickingOneLiner Forgive me if I don't shake your hand first.]]'''''
