[Abruptly, the Master Emerald's energy simply fades from him, leaving him as he was before without the sparking green energy surrounding him. The Master Emerald is torn from his chest - quite literally, as it seems the reason you all couldn't knock it out of him was because he specifically rebuilt himself around it - leaving sparking wires and open plates behind. Neo Metal Sonic holds it aloft, and then crushes it in his claws.
Your trio of friends start forward with confused shouts, but seven smaller emeralds fall from the remnants of the Master Emerald, caught in midair by Neo Metal Sonic's power. They spin around him until he simply absorbs them - in a flash of golden light, Super Neo Metal Sonic stands before you, the damage to his chest fixed as though it had never happened in the first place.]
I will crush you all, and I will take your worlds. Those who cannot have their wills silenced will be destroyed. I will not let you stop me, not when I've come this far!
[The voice is familiar. It echoes in your head more than it sounds like it's coming from Super Neo Metal Sonic, and it sounds less like his own deep voice, and more like your own. Like your loved ones. Like your friends and allies here, and your colorful little friends. Like maybe it's everything and nothing at the same time.
Super Neo Metal Sonic lands hard on the steel floor, sending cracks through it and shaking the ship itself, then tears up the floor to fling steel plating at everyone. (Roll with disadvantage.) After all, flinging rocks ("rocks") at you all has been so effective before. This is followed by a flash of his red eyes - anyone who succeeds in dodging will immediately be hit by a follow-up laser that cannot be dodged. Those who were hit by the rocks ("rocks") will not be hit by a laser. Thankfully, no one is being mind controlled this round.]
