Amy Rose and Cream the Rabbit are chillin' out at their villa, a relaxed mood in the air as they watch TV, when a knock is heard on the door.

"Oh, i'll be right there!" Cream cheers.

"No no no! Lemme' at it, i've got this!" Amy bolts up from the sofa and runs to the door. "It could be my Sonikku! Ahh, I always knew he'd come to me one day!"

Amy opens the door only to see an energetic Bokkun, to her dismay. "Bokkun?! What are you doing here?" Amy scowls.

"A new message for Amy Rose!" Bokkun suddenly tosses a TV into a surprised Amy's hands.

"Oi! But I wasn't expecting any..." Amy doesn't get to finish yelling before Bokkun zooms away.

"What is this thing anyway?..." Amy dully looks at it for a moment, before it suddenly turns itself on to reveal a seductively swagilicious Sonic the Hedgehog. Amy's eyes are immediately glued onto the screen.

"Ohh, Amy..." craves Sonic.

Amy is flabbergasted. "Homna-homna-homna"

"Amy, I want...I want you..." the TV shows wide glee from Sonic. Cream can observe wide glee from Amy.

"Amy...let's..."

The TV that Amy once was holding, has now spontaneously exploded into pieces with a bang, leaving bits of debris and a charred Amy in it's wake. "OW! WHADDA HECK!?"

Bokkun then zips by back into view, bursting out laughing with tears. "Nyehehehe! None of that stuff is real, silly!" Bokkun grins to an infuriated Amy. "Do you honestly think Sonic would say such things-"

Bokkun doesn't have time to finish before Amy suddenly hoists him up into the air, squeezing his small sized self.

"YOU TAKE THAT BACK!" Amy's rage soars. "SONIC IS MINE!"

"I'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry!" Bokkun yelps out. "I'm just the messenger bot! Don't take it out on me!"

"GRRR..." Amy's fury is visible. "Who was the one that sent you here...?"

"Fine, fine, i'll tell you! Just let me go..." Bokkun pleads as Amy finally drops him to the ground.

"Well?" questions Amy.

"...Rouge the Bat." Bokkun states, before disappearing again.

Cream then walks over to Amy. "Are you okay there?"

"Whoa...of course it was none other than that wretched bat!" Amy scowls. "She's gonna get her beans!"

"Hey, hey! That's enough of that...two wrongs don't make a right!" Cream pleads.

"Grr, but she's always toying with me, messing with me, pranking me!" Amy fumes.

"Hmm, don't you do the same towards her?" Cream inquires with a smirk.

"Gah, well that's different! Whatever..." Amy goes back to sitting down.

"Y'know...maybe you just need to hang out with her for once." says Cream.

"HA! That's never gonna' happen! Me and Rouge are just destined to be enemies..." Amy rolls her eyes.

"I gotta do something about this..." Cream thinks to herself.

The following day, Amy and Cream walk into Restaurant Swa.

"Thanks for inviting me here!" Amy says with a smile.

"Anytime!" Cream giggles. "I've reserved a special table, for my two special friends."

"Ooh, yay!" Amy shouts in glee. "Hmm, two? So who's the other...OH HELL NAW!" Amy looks over to see none other than Rouge the Bat sitting at the reserved table, giving the two a wave with a wicked grin.

"Hey ladies, did ya like my present Amy?" Rouge blurts in laughter.

"NopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNope, not sitting with ya! Nuh-uh! Nopeity-nope! Zilch! No! N.O!" Amy splutters out.

"Relax, chump. I don't want you here anymore than you want me here." Rouge states.

"Oye! Today the one rule is no fighting!" Cream shouts. "It's essential you're both here right now, so sit down, and start mingling, you two!"

After being forced to sit down by Cream, the air is silent as Rouge and Amy look away from each other, tapping the table, filing nails, among other trivial things, occasionally glaring at each other for moments.

"...So, I wonder when the waiter will come over." states Amy with contempt.

"Yeah, so I can splat the food in your face." Rouge grins. The two immediately flare up again.

"Calm, calm!" Cream mediates as a headphone-blasting, bling-wearing crocodile waiter walks over to the table.

"Aye what's crackalackin' rockstars!" the crocodile who's nametag reads "Vector" shouts. "What would ya like, rockstars?"

"Rockstars? How odd..." Rouge and Amy both are quizzically stunned.

"Uhh...i'll have the onion rings, I guess." states Amy.

"The herring for me, please." states Rouge.

"I'll just take the squid rings, please!" chirps Cream.

"Oh, and make it snappy!" Amy chuckles aloud, only to be met with an awkward silence. "Geddit...cause...crocodile...?"

"This is why nobody likes you." states Rouge with a grin. They are both fuming yet again.

"Aight, aight, it's all coming right up...rockstars! Oh boy, I can't wait!" Vector swaggers away elsewhere.

"Well, that was weird." Rouge says.

"Yeah, why'd he keep calling us rockstars?" questions Amy.

"He can't wait for what?" questions Rouge.

"I think he's talking about tomorrow..." Cream lets out a grin.

"Huh?" both Rouge and Amy raise an eyebrow.

"Well, let's just say I may have contacted the Amazing Arena stage people and told them The Spores would like to perform tomorrow...and The Spores...are you two!" Cream delights.

Amy and Rouge's eyes go wide as they let out a collective "NO. WAY."

"Mhm! It's gonna be so great! It's one of the most popular venues too, no need to thank me!" Cream smiles.

"Oh, you really shouldn't have..." Rouge seethes.

"For once I agree..." seethes Amy.

"C'mon! You two need to learn to work together! This is a good team-building exercise!" yells Cream.

"No way i'm doing it with her!" Amy complains.

"Face it, it's just not happening." says Rouge, but at that very moment, two male hedgehogs approach the table with delight on their face. These two are very familiar to the eyes of Amy and Rouge...one blue and one black in colour.

"Heya, Amy!" a wave eminates from Sonic the Hedgehog.

"Homna-homna..." Amy thinks.

"Well, well, hello Rouge." Shadow the Hedgehog gives a nod.

"Homna-homna..." Rouge thinks.

"I hear you're performing at the Amazing Arena tomorrow!" the happiness is seen within Sonic as Shadow gives a nod.

"Well, that was the plan...but y'kno they're not really feeling up to it-" Cream is immediately interrupted.

"What, what? Of course we're performing tomorrow!" Amy and Rouge vigorously nod. "Yeah, yeah, 100%! See you there!"

"Okayyy...we shall be looking forward to it." Sonic and Shadow both smile as they walk away, out of the restaurant.

"My Sonikku! Watching me on stage...Oh my gosh, my dreammmmmm!" Amy squibbles with glee.

"Ahh, Shadow...he takes my breath away at a moment's notice." the smile from Rouge's lips grows wide. "Fine Cream, i'll perform with her." Rouge nods.

"Likewise!" Amy nods.

"Yayyyyy! Yay yay yay, woohoo!" Cream jumps in joy. "I better not distract you two, i'll leave you two to discuss!" Cream immediately skips out of the restaurant in delight.

"But what about your food!?" Amy yells out, but gets no response.

"Gah, seems she only came here to get us to perform..." Rouge mutters.

"Grr!" Amy gives an eye-roll.

"Clever tactics." Rouge applauds. "So, we do have a slight problem."

"That is...?" Amy inquires.

"I can't actually play any instruments." Rouge frowns.

"Oh...drat!" Amy is horrified. "Neither can I!"

"Are you serious?" exclaims Rouge incredulously.

"This is a problem." states Amy.

"Yeah, thanks captain obvious." jeers Rouge.

"Why must you be so darn mean all the time? I'm trying to make an effort!" fumes Amy.

Rouge lets out a sigh. "Yeah, you got a point. Sorry bout' that."

"It's okay. No harm done." Amy lets out a smile, as does Rouge.

"Cool, now let's figure this out so we can score those scrumptious guys!" a determined Rouge states.

"Yeah!" agrees Amy.

Hours pass as Amy and Rouge are now trying to practise within a bedroom in the villa, but the only thing filling the air is feelings of frustration and tension. Amy cannot hit any of the beats right for her drums, while Rouge has troubles singing.

"Gah! This isn't working!" Rouge exasperates.

"I'm feeling so worried! They're gonna laugh at us!" Amy concerns.

"No, don't think like that! We can think of something" says Rouge in determination.

"But we're not gonna learn this in time for tomorrow!" exclaims Amy.

"You're right." Rouge agrees.

"What do we do?" ponders Amy.

Amy and Rouge think for a moment.

"Alright, I got an idea." states Rouge.

Excitement spreads across Amy's face. "Let's hear it!"

"What...if we...were to fight?" Rouge wonders.

Amy's excitement soon turns to dread "What!?"

"Before our first song, we get into a fight." states Rouge.

"I never thought i'd say this...but I don't want to fight you!" Amy squeals.

"Ugh, relax Amy, it's not gonna be a real fight." affirms Rouge.

"It's not?" Amy relaxes a bit.

"I mean, we trade a few words, throw a few fake blows, and then we leave the stage all huffed and puffed. Boom, don't have to sing, we score that sweet Sonic and seductive Shadow..." Rouge glees up.

"Well, I guess that could work. My Piko-Piko Hammer makes for a substitute drumstick. Are you sure about this?" Amy inquires one more time.

"Yeah, it'll be fine!" Rouge reassures.

"Great! I'll see you tomorrow!" Amy's smile is wide.

"Back at ya." Rouge nods.
