At one point, she and Amy were chosen by the Ring of Eternity as its champions to protect various locations across time and space from evil. Other missions Tekno took part in were the fight against aliens posing as Egyptian gods, including Set, and foiling Robotnik's plan to destroy life on Mobius and Earth.

Act 1[]
One mission gone wrong ended with Tekno and Shortfuse stuck in an alternate dimension in the town Solstice. There, they encountered Set, who had previously been banished here and began enslaving residents of the dimension. Set cast a spell on the two, which slowly made the canary go insane. She ended up grievously wounding Set, believing herself to have killed him, but he turned up alive and attempted to invade Mobius, forcing Tekno to kill him for real.
Tekno and Shortfuse finally returned to Mobius, which was under the assault by the New Robotnik Empire. She got trapped in Cybernik armor and forced to fight Amy before breaking free. She eventually reunited with Shoortfuse and joined his new team, the Cybernix.
Exit: Sonic[]
Years into the future, Tekno and Amy settled together and had a son named Johnny. During the final battle against Robotnik, Grimer and Super Sonic, Tekno couldn't take part, having stayed home to look after their son.
Trivia[]
