The next day, a huge crowd is gathered at Amazing Arena, the audience going wild as they anticipate The Spores' performance. Among Cream, Sonic, Shadow, Vector and the countless background extras are notable friends and allies alike, such as Miles "Tails" Prower, Knuckles the Echidna, and even arch-nemesis Dr. Eggman is present.
"Ohhohohooho! What chaos can I cause here on this marvellous day?" Eggman clasps his hands in glee.
"This is gonna be so cool!" Knuckles pumps his fists.
"Goin' straight on my livestream!" Tails nods with happiness.
"Dahyumm I didn't even kno' they were musically talented!" Vector headbangs in excitement.
"Neither...this shall be rather impressive." Shadow nods.
"Aw yeah! I'm proud of Amy!" Sonic yells.
Cream runs over to the group of cameos. "You guys excited!? I sure am!"
"Heck yeah!" Knuckles charges the air.
"Bring em' on!" yells out Tails.
"Yeah, where The Spores at?" Vector questions with ferocity.
"The Spores! The Spores! The Spores!" Sonic, Shadow, and soon after the whole crowd begin to chant out their name. Backstage, Rouge looks in the mirror as Amy twiddles her hammer, both about to head on.
"Eek! Such a huge crowd! O.M.G, I see Sonikku! I'm so nervous." Amy flabbergasts.
"Everything will be okay! Stay calm." assures Rouge.
"I don't like being mean! I don't know if I can-" Amy is suddenly pushed through the curtains by Rouge, right onto the stage. "Go go go go go!" Rouge soon follows.
As they both enter the Amazing Arena stage onlooking the crowd, the crowd cheers. The crowd erupts in acclaim as Rouge strikes some poses and Amy lets out an awkward wave.
"Hello hello! It's quite splendid to see you all!" Rouge makes a shredding motion.
"Yeah it is!" Amy yells out.
The crowd screams in joy.
"Okay well, this first song that we're going to play is about-" Rouge is interrupted.
"Hold up, hold up, hold up." Amy strides over.
"Yes?" Rouge raises an eyebrow.
"You always hog the microphone girl, let me introduce the song." gripes Amy.
"But i'm the one that introduces the songs." states Rouge. "Cause i'm cool."
"Come on!" Amy's vexation becomes visible, though she slips in a subtle wink to Rouge.
"I think somebody is a little jealous." Rouge jeers.
The crowd lets out a bunch of "ooos"
"Yeah, well maybe...you're jealous!" Amy retorts.
"Gosh gurl, you're pathetic at trash talk... Jealous of your trash drumming skills? Please!" Rouge grins as the crowd snickers yet again.
"Like the way you sing is any better! I'm so sorry Rouge, I didn't mean it!" Amy yells as she points at Rouge with her hammer.
"Still better than your dress sense, have you lived your whole life wearing that monstrosity? I'm lovin' this! I can rip into her all day!" Rouge snickers.
"Hey! This red dress defines my character!" Amy rolls her eyes.
"And you don't realise how pathetic that made you sound?" Rouge bellows with chuckles.
The crowd is howling with laughter.
"The crowd is lovin' this, I can't stop now!" thinks Rouge.
"She's taking this too far! It's about time I gave her some of her own medicine!" a disgruntled Amy ponders.
"Right? Right? At least your weak dress matches your weak hammer!" a snickering Rouge belts out.
"You look like you came out of the trash, your voice sounds like you live in trash, and your caked-up make-up makes you look like a rejected circus clown, how fitting!" Amy shouts out loud and raises her hammer.
Most of the crowd erupts with hoots.
"Y'kno maybe you two should calm..." Cream tries to suggest but is immediately interrupted by a grinning Dr. Eggman. "Fight, FIGHT, FIGHT!" Eggman shouts out, making more and more of the crowd join in.
All of a sudden, Rouge snatches Amy's Piko-Piko Hammer and swings it, thumping Amy with a hard whack to the head, knocking her out cold. Amy stands like a statue for a moment, before dropping down from the stage and hitting the arena floor as the crowd moves out of the way. The crowd is silent as a sprawled Amy lays there unconscious. Moments later, Cream runs over to Amy and holds up her hand for a pulse.
"Rouge! You knocked her out, what gives?!" exasperates Cream.
"I uhh...didn't mean to do that..." Rouge stands in shock before retreating quickly backstage.
"Grr!" fumes Cream.
Cream then starts shaking Amy, but eventually realises it's not going to work and sighs in defeat. Cream then walks up to the stage, and taps the mic.
"Give it up for The Spores!" Cream shouts.
The crowd slowly start to clap one-by-one, culminating in eventual cheers and a worthy applause. Most of the crowd then begin to disperse, leaving the unconscious Amy on the ground. Cream then runs over to the group of cameo appearances.
"Hey guys! So sorry that tonight didn't go as planned." Cream mutters in sadness.
"Are you kidding? That was the most entertaining thing i've seen in a long time!" Vector headbangs.
"Oh, really?" Cream's eyes light up.
"Rouge the Bat, wow she sure packs quite a punch!" Knuckles motions to Amy.
"Mhm..." Cream looks over awkwardly.
"At least we had a fun night!." Knuckles states, to which everyone nods.
"Don't worry Amy, you're probably gonna get internet famous!" Tails exclaims.
"Eh, good luck carrying that friend of yours to your villa." Shadow shrugs.
"Oh...shoot..." Cream sighs.
A transition later, Amy is still laying unconscious on the villa's couch as Cheese the Chao is lightly slapping her.
"Wakey-wakey, Amy!" urges Cream.
Cream snaps her fingers towards Amy, to no avail. "Goodness, you sleep like a log! Ohh, I've got an idea!" Cream exclaims as she skips to a bedroom, and moments later comes back holding an old sock that was on the floor. She then holds the sock up to Amy's nose, Cream's smile turning wide as Amy begins to stir.
"Oughhhhhhh..." Amy cracks her eyes open to see Cheese slapping her. "Chao, chao!"
She gasps in fury, then immediately groans and covers her head. Amy also notices Cream staring down at her.
"You're finally awakey!" Cream exclaims in glee.
"Wha...what happened? How long was I out?" a bamboozled Amy quizzes.
"Don't you remember? Rouge totally beaned ya! Oh right, you've been non-conscious for the past several hours or so." Cream frowns.
As the memories flood back to Amy's head (along with the pain), she grimaces. "Ohhhh mannn...my head hurts like crazy..."
"If it makes you feel better, she used your hammer to knock you out! Your hammer packs quite the punch!" Cream nods with a smile.
"No way that makes me feel better!" Amy exclaims in fury.
"Sorry! But also if it makes you feel better, that oughta be why it's trending virally!" Cream nods with another smile.
"NO WAY that makes me feel better!" Amy exclaims in x2 fury. "Rouge completely stuffed up the plan..."
"Hmm? Plan?" Cream inquires.
"It was supposed to be a fake fight. Gee, instead I have such a huge headache now..." Amy rolls her eyes.
"Well, if you're gonna break my rule of no fighting then maybe you deserve it." Cream huffs. "Why can't you just get along with Rouge for once?"
"I've been trying!" Amy whines.
"Looks like you've not been trying hard enough." Cream shakes her head.
"It's not my fault that I got knocked out!" Amy scowls.
"Hmm...I suppose carefully planning a fake fight would have taken lots of planning and co-operation by you two..." Cream considers. "I guess i'm proud of how far you two got" a smile emanates from Cream.
An exclamation pops up from Amy's head. "Shoot! I just got knocked out in front of Sonikku! How embarassing! Oh no no no!" Amy wails as Cream just pats Amy's shoulder. "Well, at least Rouge messed up her chances with Shadow too." Amy smirks.
"Actually, Rouge is currently on a date with him." Cream chuckles.
"What!? No way!" a shocked Amy replies.
"After you hit the floor, Shadow came over and told her she has the power of iron, he thought it was pretty hot. Isn't that cute!?" Cream squeals in glee.
"Grr! Whatever, and where is my Sonikku?!" Amy questions.
"While he was trying to wake you up, some girl called Elise came over and told him she was a princess. They go out now. Isn't that cute?!" Cream squeals in x2 glee.
"NOT...HELPING." Amy's face boils red in anger.
"I'm sorry...it was pretty embarrassing for you..." Cream lets out a giggle.
"Grr!" Amy fumes.
"But look on the bright side! Turns out, you were actually the hero that day!" Cream shouts in joy.
"Wha...why?" Amy raises an eyebrow.
"That dastardly Dr. Eggman was there to try and spoil the night! He thought he'd achieve that by instigating the fight, but it had the opposite effect!" Cream yells out happily. "Your non-consciousness saved the day!"
"At least it can't get any worse..." Amy rolls her eyes and grumbles, her eyes go wide after fumbling around in her pockets.
"Oye? Wha, where'd my wallet go!? Darn Egghead...bet he nicked off with it!" scowls Amy.
"Oh...that one was on me...ehehe..." Cream blushes as she tosses Amy's wallet back at her.
"What!?" fumes Amy.
"You were taking ages to wake up." Cream shrugs.
Amy grimaces at Cream. "Me and Rouge are destined to be arch-rivals."
Cream gasps. "Don't say that! Who do you think brought you here?" Cream winks.
Amy shakes her head. "You don't mean...?"
"Rouge felt pretty bad about the whole thing, so she carried you all the way here!" states Cream. "Perhaps you should thank her next time you see her."
"Hmph." Amy huffs.
At that moment, there is a knock on the door.
"See that, I bet that's her!" says Cream. "Looks like i'll have to go get it..."
Amy then gets up off the couch, and walks over to the door. "Actually, you're right. I guess I can forgive her." Amy and Cream both smile, and Amy opens the door only to see Bokkun again, holding the Piko-Piko-Hammer this time.
"Special delivery from Rouge!" Bokkun yells, and slams the hammer down onto Amy, knocking her out cold once more.
"Oi! Why'd you do that?!" Cream snaps as the hammer lays on top of the fallen Amy.
"Hey hey, i'm just the messenger guy! I was given strict instructions to 'return Amy's hammer back to her'! I did just that!" Bokkun giggles, then vanishes into thin air.
"Oye! Wait a minute! But you! Get back!" Cream sighs as she realises her pleas are useless. "Okay...I admit...maybe it was a bad idea to try and get Rouge and Amy to be friends..."
"Chao, chao!" Cheese springs near Amy and starts to slap her again as Cream cringes with a facepalm.
