Sonic saves the life of a magical frog from a mudslide. It rewards him with three magical stones. Each of the stones has a different ability: one provides super strength, one enables great leaping distance, and one grants elasticity. The frog warns that the stones will only last a short time, and leaps off after thanking him again for his rescue. Sonic decides to give the rocks to Tails as good luck charms; a few days later, the Knothole Freedom Fighters ride into the Mobian Badlands in Rotor's land rover. "Rockin' the 'Bot" - Part Two
