Sonic attacked the Guardian Bot, luring it away from the dam so that Sonia, Manic, the Mountain Folk and Valley Folk could attack the dam. However, the others were prevented from destroying the dam by Sleet and Dingo, who arrived in a flying scorpion-shaped vehicle. Jerod delivered a message from Sonia to Sonic (following the trail of destruction left by the Guardian Bot) to bring the Bot back to the dam. The Bot returned to see Sleet and Dingo firing at Sonia and Manic, who were standing on the dam. Perceiving this as an attack on the dam itself, the Guardian Bot destroyed their vehicle and forced Sleet and Dingo to flee.
