This is a muscle growth series focusing on characters from the entire universe of Sonic the Hedgehog, including the less known ones. I suggested this entry to  backyardgameboy as we are concerned about the Red Stone arc lagging behind the other two arcs.

Description:
The Artic Freedom Fighters had taken word that many fleeing citizens of most of the Northern Ocean had been evacuating from their now-chaotic underwater homeland, and King Puff of Meropis had been requesting for asylum. Having learned about what exactly happened, Guntiver the Artic Wolf relayed the said information to other freedom fighter groups, including one of Knothole. Against Guntiver's order and King Puff's wish of not going down into the Northern Ocean just to investigate, one member Sealia Seal did so anyway, genuinely believing she could quickly swoop in and get out as soon as she could to carry out new info, until eventually she stopped by the underwater city of Meropis, now occupied by magically hulkified sea warriors. Despite not knowing much about Meropis, Sealia learned a little well about its rulers King Puff and Queen Angelica. She thought the queen remained defending there when the invasion occurred and held hostage by its strange occupiers, and so she quickly swam in the shadows through the city alleys to avoid unwanted attention. The seal then became horrified when she reached her way into the palace, only to find the queen having ended up becoming one of the hulk warriors. She began swimming away out of the palace without notice, but her horrified shrieks reached the queen's ears, in which then she sicced her newly-transformed guards on the defenseless seal.

An hour after Sealia's solo expedition, the fellow freedom fighter Augustus the Polar Bear got worried when he couldn't find the seal anywhere and alerted his friends. They were shocked to learned that Sealia had left without informing them. Even if Sealia had defied Guntiver's order, not even he could bear on what would happen to her when it involved something none of the Artic Freedom Fighers could know neither could comprehend. Fearing for the worst, Guntiver made a temporary shelter inside the large iceberg, just to shield the evacuees, who were then ordered not to go outside to avoid detection from any creeping sea warrior until further notice. Meanwhile, Erma Ermine and Flip Penguin manned the stolen Egg submarine and Augustus just simply equipped himself with a diving equipment, forming their own expedition altogether. Keeping in tabs with Guntiver via radio, Erma had her eyes on the environment around the sub and Flip tracking the sub's movement through radar and map, while Augustus was dealing with any obstacle coming in their way. However after another hour, Erma stopped the sub for a moment, when King Puff took over the radio and explained the current situation on his part, but Augustus was too busy punching away obstacles to clear the sub's path. Flip remained in contact with the polar bear still punching until the penguin couldn't hear any more grunts. Horrified over something so sudden, Flip interrupted and alerted Erma about Augustus' disappearance.

King Puff immediately suggested Erma and Flip to drop everything and retreat, lest they could get caught in the same way as did Augustus and Sealia. Erma was skeptical at first, but then a punch went straight through the Egg submarine, quickly filling it with a rush of water. Erma and Flip were horrified to see Augustus, now big, monstrous, hostile and near-feral. However, due to the ermine being a land Mobian, Flip sacrificed himself to buy Erma some time, by sliding around the angry polar bear. Then, Augustus took control of the situation by stopping Flip at chokepoint, but then he noticed Erma equipped with diving devices and starting swimming already, Augustus roared in rage. At this point, Guntiver had lost contact with his comrades due to submarine communications shorted out, and Erma found herself in a much deeper level in the middle of the ocean, with that pressure so strong that she couldn't simply survive without manning a submarine. In other words, Erma was about to get crushed with upward and downward forces, but then she was quickly saved by some swift creature. Erma struggling for life could simply sense that the said creature had to be Sealia because she could see white and purple colors moving in fast speed. As she was brought out from the ocean water and onto a nearby lone iceburg however, she was terrified to Sealia in a similar matter, big, hostile and monstrous, but also evilly smiling and flexing. With nowhere else for Erma to go, Sealia took time to explain how she got bigger, stronger and more powerful, but to be straightforward, Sealia got trapped while swimming away by the corrupted Coral the Betta and was given the strangely carved red stone, whose radiation triggered muscle growth and rage, turning the seal into what she was right now. Sealia further admitted to have caught Augustus off-guard and transformed him into a larger monster with the same stone that he was then provided for war, but assured her that the ermine would eventually learn to embrace her new evil self. Erma could at least fight back, given any opportunity, but with nothing else to hop, she got got transformed.

Guntiver waited on his own radio for half an hour, until King Puff patiently offered condolences for the former's losses and requested for a much safer but permanent shelter for the Northern Ocean Mobians. Guntiver remained silent on this request, but when King Puff offered his own guards in return to help the Artic wolf get back his friends and save the underwater kingdom, he sighed and relented. Unbeknownst to the aforementioned two, Sealia emerged from water and noticed the said two walking into the large iceberg (serving as the temporary shelter for Northern Ocean refugees), and evilly smiling, she sank back into the water, knowing she would report back to her new boss.
