Hey everybody! To my beloved fans, you may remember the challenge I left you all with at the end of my first Fic, Operation: "Rewind". The task was that you had to guess which one of the OCs in that story was my personal OC, my Author Insert. Sadly only three people tried, but Chocoholic Princess got the answer right!

My AI is Spike! The reward for this was I would star one of her OCs in the sequel, and I will (don't sweat it Princess). But I needed to get a feel for the character's personality so we started a RP. We just kept i going, and now we've decided to make it a story! Please keep in mind we had no idea how this would turn out at first, and I urge you faithful readers not to gleen any hidden messages from this story.

That being said, enjoy! Read, and Review please!

Angel the Hedgehog is property of Chocoholic Princess!

Chapter 1

In the streets of Station Square a small group of friends walks. One is a black cat with gray stripes reminiscent of a tiger's. His eyes are gold, almost glowing, and he's dressed in skintight black clothes. Almost twenty knives are sheathed in various places on his body, and a pair of bladed Tonfa hangs from his hips.

On his left walks a brown bat with sapphire colored eyes. She wears an agent's suit with a green heart-shaped breastplate. She glances around, an eager smirk on her face.

Lastly is an ash colored hedgehog with punk rock clothes. His gloves are black with one inch metal spikes on each knuckle. He rolls his silver eyes towards the cat, "Reave, remind me, why are we doing this again?"

Reave sighs, and turns to face his friend, "Because I wanted you two to meet her, Spike. She was kind enough to aid me during our last mission, and so I wanted to introduce her to my friends."

The bat her neck nervously, "I wonder if she'll like us…"

Reave chuckles, "No worries Cocoa, she actually reminds me a lot of you. I'm sure you'll be fast friends.

Spike folds his hands behind his head, "Okay, so what's her name anyways?"

"Angel." Reave sits on a park bench. Up walks a light purple hedgehog with blue eyes, dressed in dark skinny jeans and a red top.

"Umm...h-hello..."

Spike's eyes go wide, "Whoa! You weren't kidding, she is an angel!" He walks up to her, and extends his hand, "S'up babe? The name's Spike."

Angel blushes and offers her hand "Um...thank you, I think...Babe? Really?" She giggles.

"Well if the boot fits, wear it." He winks, "So, wanna get a doughnut?"

Reave sighs, and folds his ears back. "Miss, if you value your sanity you will not let him eat any sugar."

Spike coughs, "Um, just ignore him! Reave is such a stick in the mud." He ducks as Reave tosses a rock at his head.

Angel looks a bit nervous, "Uh, m-maybe not. I mean, as much as I love doughnuts...Reave kinda looks like he knows what he's talking about...s-sorry..."Spike groans, "Dammit Reave, do you have to make such a big deal out of nothing?"

"Forgive me if I don't want the world as we know it to end."

"Mountains out of Mole-Hills." Spike shakes his head sadly, "Fine is doesn't have to be doughnuts, wanna grab a hot-dog, or are you a vegan?"

Angel chuckles, "Sure thing, I'm not vegan, or vegetarian. Should we invite your friends too? I mean...if you want to, and all..."

"Sure, why not? Hey Reave! Bring Cocoa along, and we can make it a double-date!"

Angel blushes "A-A DATE?! B-but...I...um...we only just met...are you sure?"

Blushes deeply, "Spike, you are such a-!"

"It might be nice," Reave grins at Cocoa. "Besides, we all know that Spike needs a minimum of two babysitters." Cocoa looks at the ground as she shuffles her feet.

Spike frowns while crossing his arms, "You've got a snappy comeback for everything, don't you?"

Reave crosses his arms, "I try, which is more than you can say Mr. Slick."

Angel giggles at Reave, "Babysitters? That sounds exhausting...eh, no offence, Spike..."

Reave nods, "I hope you'll forgive him, Spike's sense of humor is quite lacking."

Angel nods and smiles, "It's fine, Reave."

Spike huffs, "Who said I was joking? And since when do I need "babysitters" anyways? I spent a month on the streets by myself before I met you!"

"And you were half-dead when I found you. Since then I've been watching your back, and front for five years."

Spike looks ticked. "Okay Reave, you're my best friend but this has to stop." Spike summons his sword, a Katana with a crimson blade. "If you think Amy's crazy, you haven't seen anything yet!"

A hammer comes down on his head.

"What was that you jerk?" Amy gives him a deceptively sweet smile, "I thought I heard the word "crazy"."

Spike groans, and turns over onto his back, "Hey baby sis, yeah I was telling Reave here that he's crazy. We were planning to do a double date, and I said that he's crazy for not inviting you, and Sonic."

Amy's eyes light up at the word 'date'. She rushes up to Reave, hands clasped in a begging fashion, "Can we come? Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease?!"

Spike grabs Angle's wrist, and whispers in her ear, "Quick, while she's in La-La Land let's make a break for it!"

Angel turns to Spike, "Huh, but, she wanted to come. She's your sister, shouldn't we let her? I mean...unless you guys think it's a bad idea..."

Spike groans, "but we're just going out to get a hotdog, but you wanna hafta chase down the fastest thing alive first?"

Reave puts a hand on Amy's shoulder, "Why not call Sonic first to see if he wants to come? If not you're free to come with us."

"Yay!" Amy almost crushes Reave in a hug before skipping off to find a phone.

Spike shakes his head, "Don't get me wrong, Ames is a sweet girl. But she has her... moments..."

Angel grins, "I'm sure it'll be just as fun with those two there. Lighten up, Spike!" She puts a hand on his shoulder, "But what if Sonic doesn't want to come? I mean...Amy can go a little...overboard. She would be upset, I wouldn't want her to be sad..."

Reave nods, and then his ear twitches. He turns around fast with three knives in each hand to come face to face with four Metal Sonics.

Spike groans, "Oh come on! All I wanted was one lousy hotdog!"

Reave stares at the robots, "Regardless, we have to take care these before anyone can get hurt." He crouches, ready to spring.

Spike shouts, "Hey, where are your manners? Haven't you ever heard of 'ladies first'?" Spike calls his sword to him, and grins at the girls.

Cocoa walks up to Angel, "There's one for each of us, want to go first?"

Angel: "Oh wow...sure thing!" She summons her nunchucks, she smirks and leaps at the first Metal Sonic, unleashing a combo attack and destroying it. "Huh...that was easy...your turn..."

Cocoa pulls a square of metal the size of a CD case out of a pocket in her green, and black jumpsuit. In a flash of light she's holing the same sniper rifle she had at the last stand at Tails's lab. She goes into a quick roll to catch the machines off gaurd, and puts a shot between one of the mecha's optic sensors.

Spike whoops, "Hell yeah, OPEN SEASON!"

The last two robots are more upgraded than the other two because they take to the air, and fly circles around Spike, Reave.

The two Mobians stand back to back as they watch the mechas wearily.

Spike says from over his shoulder, "What do you think, 18?"

Reave makes a face, "Against flying adversaries? I'm thinking 21."

Spike grins, and the two lock elbows. Spike spins, lifting Reave off the ground, and throwing him into the air. Reave collides with one of the Mechas, jamming two knives into its neck. He performs a backflip, rolling backwards until he's using his hands to stand with his body half curled onto his shoulders.

Spike leaps onto his friend, landing nimbly on the bottoms of Reave's feet. The cat straightens his body, helping the hedgehog add some extra force to his next leap. Spike spins in the air, crimson blade flashing, as the slices the head of the final Mecha in half. He lands in a badass Samurai crouch with a grin before straightening up.

Reave smiles, "I'm sorry about the babysitting remark."

Spike grins, "Sorry for pitching a fit."

Angel's eyes widen, "Whoa...I'm speechless...that was amazing! You guys were great!"

Spike blushes, "Aw, it's nothing that big..."

Cocoa puts away her gun, "Well we all know Shadow wouldn't let a bunch of plush toys fight with him."

Amy comes back, "Sonic's on his way, and... What in the name of Chaos happened here?"

Spike shrugs, "We got bored waiting on ya, where are we... Oh, shiny!" Spike pulls a fake Chaos Emerald of the remains of his dead Mecha. Cocoa, and Reave follow the suit.

Reave looks up as Sonic skids to a halt beside him, "So where're we headed?"

Reave thinks, "I hear that Twinkle Park makes the best chilidogs in Station Square."

Sonic points at the cat, "Challenge accepted! I happen to know this one guy on Fifth Avenue who makes a pretty mean dog."

Spike pumps a fist in the air, "Awesome, if we pair up then we can get in for free!"

Amy giggles, "Oh Sonikkuuuuu!" She bats her eyelashes at him.

"The things I do for my quest to find the perfect chilidog..."

Spike frowns, "Hey, no badmouthing my sister!"

Angel laughs "So, we're heading to Twinkle Park? Those chillidogs sound yummy! And Sonic, I'm sure you'll have fun with Amy...even if she can be a little...melodramatic...still, she seems nice...and I no longer feel shy around any of you guys." She smiles at Spike

Amy's ears twitch, "Hey, who are you name-calling over there?!"

As Amy starts to run at Angel with her hammer raised, Spike jumps, and grabs her by the waist. He strains to hold Amy back, his feet digging into the ground.

"Sonic, HELP!"

Sonic rushes over, and wraps his arms around Amy's waist too. Amy keeps trying to get within swinging range of Angel, but when she realizes that Sonic is holding her she practically melts into his arms.

Angel has one hand pressed to her chest. "Oh crap...phew! Thank you so much you guys...I really didn't want to have to hurt her defending myself...but it seems like Sonic has things under control haha."

Before Sonic can start freaking out, Reave steps forward, "I can see that you're having fun here, but we did make plans."

Amy grabs Sonic's hand, starts dragging him towards the famous amusement park. Cocoa glances at Reave while blushing. He simply gives her a friendly smile before slipping an arm across her back to rest his hand on her shoulder Spike sighs as they walk off in the same direction his sister took.

"Lucky them, huh?"

Angel glances at Spike "Y-yeah...lucky them...S-shouldn't we go too...y'know? Twinkle Park awaits..."

Spike glances back, a blatant blush on his muzzle, "Yeah... baby sis wouldn't ever forgive me if I made her wait on her "date"… They say only cute couples get in free..." He holds a hand out to her questioningly.

Angel giggles and shakes her head at the thought of what Amy would do "Yeah...we wouldn't want another episode of what just happened." She blushes slightly and smiles, placing her hand in his "Well, let's go!"

Spike smiles,and they too head down the street where a sakura colored hedgehog impatiently waits with a tapping foot.

Angel playfully shakes her head, grinning. "Don't worry Amy, we're coming, hang on, will ya? I know it must be exciting going on a "Date" with Sonic." She teases

Spike holds up a lecturing finger, and says pompously, "Normally I would say it's a bad idea to use the "D" word around baby sis, but that cat's already out of the bag."

Reave shudders, "Spike, you know that's not a phrase that I approve of."

Spike winces, "Sorry dude, forgot..."

Angel giggles "I guess so...perhaps I should refrain from using it then..." She tilts her head in confusion "Why do you not approve of it, Reave?"

A sad expression comes over Reave's features, "There is only one reason a human would put a cat in a bag, and this is not the time, nor place to go into detail."

Amy groans, "Can we please go already? I've been waiting for this my whole life!"

Sonic looks at the elevator to the amusement park entrance, "Yeah guys, can't you hear all those lonely chilidogs in there?"

(Note: The term "let the cat out of the bag" pertains to when people would take freshly born kittens they couldn't keep, put them in a bag, and toss that bag in a river. :( )

Angel goes quiet, and her expression solemn "Oh...I...I'm sorry for bringing it up, Reave" She whispers, turning to face Sonic and Amy "Right...sorry about that. Let's go in, before all those chillidogs run out..." She pulls Spike over to the elevator

Inside the place is hopping; people are squealing as they are tossed about on rides, couples are laughing as they play some obviously rigged carnival games, and the smell of overpriced junkfood lingers in the air.

In short: paradise

Angel's eyes light up at the sight of everything. "Wow...I've never been to anywhere like this before!"

Sonic has his nose in the air, searching for the telltale scent of chilidogs. Amy is latched onto Sonic's arm while she eyes the festivities with uncontained excitement. Cocoa eyes a stuffed Chao plushy at a nearby game. Reave deftly maneuvers them to the game where he hands the Carnie a dollar. Reave gets three baseballs to knock down a huge pyramid of bowling pins held together on planks of wood. Reave grins before throwing the ball over his shoulder. It collides at the pyramid's base, and within seconds the entire thing comes tumbling own The Carnie is so impressed that he gives Reave three different Chao plushies: one dark, one hero, and one neutral. Cocoa accepts then with a blush, and a wide smile.

Spike chuckles, "Showoff."

Angel laughs at Spike's comment, slightly taken aback by Reave's impressive aim. "Huh...he's pretty good at that"

Spike bobs his head in agreement, "Yeah, he's good at just about anything. Except..." He trails off as Reave narrows his eyes at him. Spike grins to himself as Reave spots Sonic struggling to escape Amy as she drags him towards a Ferris Wheel. The cat strides over to do his job as peacemaker with Cocoa not far behind.

Angel tilts her head in curiosity "Except? Except what? Now I'm curious!" She grins, but wonders whether to just drop the subject. She watches as Reave and Cocoa walk away "So..um...w-what should we do? D-do we go with them?" She asks Spike.

Spike pretends to think about it, "Nah, they'll catch up soon enough. Anyways, it looks like we've found everything except the hotdog stand." Still holding her hand he pulls her away from the others. Angel shrugs and lets Spike lead her away.

Spike glances around before leaning to whisper in Angel's ear, "He can't dance."

Spike pulls back, and nods conspiratorially, "It makes him so mad, that he has the grace to take down a squad of navy SEALs, but no matter how hard he's tried to learn, he just can't do it! It's something of a puzzle to me, he has the patience to learn almost any skill, but that one alludes him for some reason."

Her face lights up with a grin and she laughs at what he just whispered "Really? He can't dance? Wow...that's kinda ironic when you say that! Well, I guess no-one is perfect, he has to suck at something, at least. Hasn't Cocoa tried to teach him or anything?"

Spike raises an eyebrow at Angel, "Are you kidding? You saw how awkward she is around him. It's obvious that ever since Rewind failed they've got feelings for each other, but this is the closest they've ever come to showing it." Angel giggles "Awww, that's so cute! They really should get together." She smiles, feeling happy for her two new found friends.

Spike looks around at the rides, "You're right, this place is amazing! While we're here we might as well enjoy ourselves a little."

She turns her attention back to Spike and her face lights up, "Yup! What's the point in coming if we don't go on some of the rides, too! What should we do first? Unless you wanna get that hotdog now, or should we wait for the others?"

Spike pulls her to a ticket booth, "Why don't we let the others do their thing? Our cat and bat buddies might get a wee bit closer with fewer people to worry about looking after. I think we should do the rides first, it's a principle of mine to meet my lunch only once a day." Spike buys a bunch of tickets, and looks around at the different rides.

Angel nods "You're right, we'll leave them to it. Okay then...umm...which one first?" She, too, looks around in awe at the many rides surrounding them.

A sharp squeaking sound makes Spike look straight up. He grins, "How about the Cable Cars? Just imagine what this place looks like from up high!"

Angel hesitates for a moment "Um...s-sure...but...I um" She blushes and looks at the ground, suddenly finding it interesting "I-I...heights k-kinda scare me..." She trails off

Spike looks at her with concern, and then he has an idea. You can almost see the light bulb over his head.

"Well I hate to tell you this, Angel, but pretty much every ride here is gonna put you at least twenty feet off the ground at some point." He looks up at the Cable Cars again, "Those look like they're he highest ride in the park, so why not start at the top, and work our way down? Besides , do you really think I'd let you fall?"

Angel sighs "Y-yeah...I know..." She thinks for a moment, smiling at Spike's kindness "Um...okay...I-I guess so, promise you won't leave? I don't want to face that on my own..." She looks up at the cable cars, feeling a little nervous.

Spike pulls her into a quick hug, chuckling while rubbing her head a bit, "If you keep worrying like that then you won't have any fun!" He takes her hand again, and leads her to the far corner of the park where the station for the Cable Cars is. He gives the conductor two tickets, and they step into the car. It's big enough for about six people, but there's only one other couple in the car. Spike puts his hands over Angel's eyes as the car starts to lift off the ground.

When he takes his hands away they are above the park, and have a full view of the place. The twinkling neon light flash, and swirl hypnotically as the park lays before them like a small sea of light.

Angel's eyes widen, and she starts to tremble slightly "Oh god...we...we're so high...I feel a little dizzy" The beautiful sight before her slightly calms her down, but she cannot shake the feeling of fear, that something is going to happen. "This is amazing...a-are you sure it's safe?" She frowns, looking down, but immediately squeezes her eyes shut and grabs Spike's arm as if it's her lifeline. "Okay...I need to calm down..."

Spike drums two fingers against his chin in thought, and then snaps his fingers. He reaches into his quills, and pulls out two pairs of binoculars, "Here, looking through these will make the ground look a lot closer. Plus we should be able to see the others from up here." Angel takes the binoculars from Spike and thanks him.

He gazes through one pair, "They were on the Farris Wheel... Uh-oh. Houston, we got a problem."

"What?! What is it?" She asks, looking through the binoculars to try and find the others.

"It's Reave, he's in one of the green seats."

Through the binoculars they see the pair in question. Cocoa is blushing from being strapped in so close to Reave, hugging her toys, and stealing glances at him. The cat has both hands on the rod in front of them, his gaze fixed on scanning the crowd in front of him.

Spike sighs, "I know that look, he's looking for escape routes. I don't think he's planning on ditching, but he's letting his protective instincts get in the way of enjoying himself. At this rate their relationship could go under before they can enjoy it..."

Spike takes the binoculars away from his face, and turns to Angel, "This is an emergency! We must intervene!" He raises a fist heroically.

Angel chuckles at Spike "That guy really need to relax and have fun. But you're right, we have to do something, at least..."

Spike strokes a nonexistent beard, "Hmm... Knowing Reave we will need to be careful so he doesn't know we're doing anything. If he even suspects it could ruin it for them. Perhaps an indirect approach... Maybe we could convince Cocoa to do something with him. She might need a little push though, that girl is shakier than a house of cards in a hurricane when it comes to romance."

A sudden thought crosses Spike's mind, "Come to think of it, you and her are a little alike in that area. Maybe you guys think alike?"

Angel nods in agreement "Right! We can't be too obvious about this. Hmmm...maybe so. If that is true, then perhaps something...subtle...is in order. Nothing that will shake her up too much, y'know? Maybe something that involves teams, so she and Reave can be on one team together? Hmmm...I don't know..." She trails off, deep in thought.

Spike puts an arm around Angel's shoulder, and waves a hand at the scenery in front of them, "We have an entire arsenal of carnival rides before us. I need you to think, Angel, if you were in Cocoa's shoes, where would you hope your date would take you after a pleasant Ferris Wheel ride?"

Angel frowns, thinking, "Um...if there was a fireworks display, I'd like to sit with my date and watch under the night sky...but I don't know if Twinkle Park even HAVE fireworks...So I don't know...I-I'm not really very g-good at this, s-sorry" She blushes.

Spike rubs her arm to comfort her, "No worries, I'm pretty sure that Twinkle Park has everything. But just in case they don't maybe all the lights could make the entire park seem like an ongoing fireworks show..."

Angel smiles at Spike "Okay, I guess we'll have to see..."

Spike widens his eyes as an idea hits him like his sister's hammer, "HOLY CROW!"

"Yes?"

Spike turns to see a crow dressed like a priest.

"Uh, sorry dude, figure of speech." The crow nods as he turns back to the window, how had Spike missed him being there before?

She jumps, startled by his outburst, "What is it, Spike?"

Spike is totally mind-blown, "It's genius! We feed Reave's protective side by getting them on a few "scary" rides, and at the same time we try to get Cocoa to make the first move. She'll be so comfortable around him after a few rides that she'll have all the confidence she needs. Plus we can avoid suspicion by acting around Reave like we're trying to get Amy and Sonic to hook up; thank you baby sis!"

Angel taps her chin, thinking. "Y'know...that idea isn't half bad!" She grins "But how do we get them onto those scary rides without it looking suspicious?" She then sighs "I really really hope we don't get caught...I don't want to be on the receiving end of Reave's wrath...especially since it's not long since I've met you guys, I don't want them to hate me..." She trails off

Spike scoffs, "Hate you? Even Mephiles the Dark couldn't hate you! If anything I'd be the one taking the fall, and you'd be the hapless victim who got suckered into my schemes. We won't get caught anyways, so there's nothing to worry about. Just follow my lead, k?"

Angel blushes yet again "Uh...t-thanks...I think...but I wouldn't want you to suffer his wrath on your own! I have my part in this too, it wouldn't be fair." She sighs and nods "Okay! What's the first step?"

Spike rolls his eyes, "I suffer his wrath every day, it's nothing special."

Angel giggles "I guess you must be used to it then."

As they exit the ride on the other side of the park Spike steps back from Angel with a look of shock as he looks at her. "Hey, you're still alive! How about that?" His face breaks into a wide grin.

Her eyes widen at what Spike just said "Y-you're right...I am!" She too, grins "You distracted me with our planning haha, thank you" She gives him a gentle hug in thanks, suddenly feeling much more confident about going on the rides.

"As I always say, 'Courage isn't the absence of fear, it's the guts to look you fear in the eye, and spit in it.' I came up with that myself."

Angel laughs "That's very...creative."

Spike grabs a map, and a brochure from a nearby stand. He looks them over, and his face breaks into an evil grin.

"Okay, let Operation: "Love is in the Air" commence!"

He takes Angel's hand, and starts leading her back to the Ferris wheel.

She smirks, following Spike and thinking about their plan. "Right! Let's get to it!"

When they come across the Ferris wheel, they see their friends getting off. Spike grins at Angel before dropping her hand, and dashing towards the others.

"Hey guys, check out what I found! This place has everything! There's roller coasters, helicopter rides, bumper cars - I heard someplace that the bumper cars here are insanely fast, especially the two-person ones!"

Sonic's ears twitch at the words "insanely fast", and Amy's twitch at the words "two-person". They glance at the map, and take off to find the ride.

Reave steps up to Spike, "That was a very kind thing you did there."

Spike looks at him eagerly, "I know, this'll be some awesome road kill, right?"

Reave sighs, and heads off with Cocoa to supervise the two hedgehogs. Behind their backs Spike give Angel a wink, and a thumbs-up.

Angel grins "That was easy, and they don't suspect a thing! So, what's next, Spike?" She asks, eager to find out the next part of the plan.

Spike grins, a gleam in his eye, "Road Rage!"

He leads her to the Bumper Cars where Amy is coercing Sonic into a royal blue bumper car. Reave helps Cocoa into a light green car, and Spike guides Angel to a deep purple car.

"Now for this to work we're gonna need to shake things up a lot," Spike buckles himself in, and helps Angel with hers. "Which means we get to have some psychotic fun!"

Angel grins widely, feeling giddy with excitement "Awesome! This is definitely gonna be fun!" She laughs, waiting for the road rage to commence.

"Yup, just be glad we haven't eaten yet!" And with that the whistle blows, starting the ride. Spike guns the gas, and as it turns out the cars ARE insanely fast! He rams right into the back of Amy's car, and she looks over her shoulder at him. He sticks his tongue out at her while putting the tip of his thumb to his nose, and wiggling his fingers at her. Amy's eyes blaze with anger as she spins the car to give chase.

Angel slightly screams, startled by how fast the car is moving. "Whoa...this is faster than I imagined...cool!" She looks at Amy, seeing a furious aura surrounding her. "Um, Spike...your sister looks like she's going to kill us..." Nonetheless, she grins, in an insanely happy mood. Angel remembers the mission, and looks around to find Cocoa and Reave

As it so happens they are directly on a collision course with the couple. Spike swerves to the side at the last minute, and Amy barrels right past them to collide with Reave.

"Olay!" Spike shouts, and starts laughing maniacally. His laughter fades as the other two pull up on either side of his, and Angel's car.

He hits the brakes as both cars trade paint with him, sending Spike, and Angel into a mad spin for a few seconds.

Angel squeals, clutching the car for dear life. "Wow...this is such an adrenaline rush!" She wonders if the plan is working, and notices Cocoa and Reave seem happy enough in each other's' company. She smiles, lurching forward and yelping when another car hits them from the back.

"Alright!" Spike shouts, "It's on now you two! I suggest you start running!"

Amy gives him a pitiful smile, "And why would we-?" She breaks off as Spike pulls a Hershey's Kiss out of a pocket. Cocoa's, and Amy's faces go pale while Reave licks nervous lips. Sonic looks at all of them questioningly. Spike tosses the chocolate into the air, and catches it in his mouth.

Amy grabs Sonic who's in the driver's seat, and shakes him, "Drive Sonic, drive!"

"I'm driving, I'm driving!" Sonic guns the accelerator, and heads straight for Spike's car.

"Wrong way!" Amy clutches her seat.

Spike pupils grow on a sugar rush, and he hits the accelerator so hard that the tires squeal. His car actually jumps a little as it barrels into Sonic's, sending the blue car skidding back a few yards.

Angel's eyes widen drastically and she screams, seeing nothing but multicolored blurs due to the speed Spike was driving. "SPIKE! Slow down!" She whimpers and closes her eyes, bracing herself. "Oh gosh, as fun as this is...this isn't gonna end well" She mumbles, thinking of how the smallest of chocolates can send Spike so hyper...It was then she was glad they didn't eat yet. "Sonic...Reave...can anyone get him to slow down..."

"Slow down?" Sonic gives her an incredulous look, "This is just getting fun!"

"Sonic Hedgehog! Don't you dare- AAAAHHH!" Amy shrieks as Sonic punches the gas at full speed, and circles around to go after Spike.

"You may be fast on your feet, but you can't outdrive me!" Spike mirrors Sonic's moves, and the two go head to head. At the last second Spike jerks the wheel so the car spins, the rear bumper smashing into Sonic's front bumper, and sending the blue car spinning out of control. Reave notices this, and barely maneuvers his own vehicle out of the way. He punches the gas, and jerks the wheel, barley missing the blue blur by mere centimeters.

Sonic's car bashes into the side of the ring, finally coming to a stop. Amy is pale, and both of them are breathing hard.

From where Spike stopped the car, his pupils shrink back to normal size, "… Um... Oops?"

Sonic looks over at Spike, "That...Was... AWESOME!" While Sonic laughs his head off, Cocoa sighs in relief. She blushes, and hurries to undo her seatbelt when she realizes that she'd been clutching Reave's arm like her life depended on it.

Spike give a low chuckle, and hops out of the car. Amy refuses to unwrap her arms from around Sonic's neck, and Reave puts a comforting arm around Cocoa's shoulders.

Angel slowly steps out of the car too, a little shaken up at what had happened. "I have to admit. That...was...amazing...I wonder if that's how it feels to be Sonic?" She laughs and then sighs in relief that everyone is ok. She looks at Reave and Cocoa from the corner of her eye and smiles to herself, nudging Spike to get his attention. "You think it's working?" She whispers

"I think we're getting there," he whispers back. "One more scary ride, and then we put them through a slower, more romantic ride."

He stops talking as Reave walks up to them, looking displeased, "You know better than that, Spike. ADHD, and sugar never mix well." Reave holds out a waiting hand.

Spike sighs, and pulls a bag of Kisses out of his pocket. Before he hands it to Reave, he gives handful to Angel. Angel nods and smirks, before thanking Spike for the chocolate. She giggles, popping one in her mouth and savoring the taste.

Sonic walks up to them, still wearing Amy like a necklace, "Man, what a rip-off! I need the seven Chaos emeralds, and the Super Emeralds to go Hyper, but all you need is a Kiss!"

Spike sighs, and looks up at the night sky as they leave the bumper cars behind them, "Yup, nothing quite like a good kiss, eh Angel?" He wags his eyebrows at her.

"Oh definitely! It's like heaven!" She replies, noticing Spike's little eyebrow dance and realizes the double meaning behind their conversation.

She blushes heavily at the obvious innuendo, suddenly getting an idea. "So, what do you think, Cocoa? Kisses are great, aren't they?" She asks, giving an oh-so-innocent smile at the girl, and glancing at Reave out of the corner of her eye.

Cocoa scratches the back of her head with a blush, "Yeah, they're sweet."
