Maia: There is a map that reveals the location of all the crystals.
Sonic: Where is it?
Maia: Not where. When. It disappeared long ago. But this machine can transport you to a time before it vanished.
Time travel?
Oh no this really is Sonic 06 all over again! Everybody run! Sliver might show up any minute!
i like that they on’t even realize “Oh, you are taking us to the map right before it mysteriously disappeared so we can get it before it vanishes!”
It’s like FFFFFF
It disappears because you take it to the future!
