"Flash?!" Amy screamed again as she noticed his badly burned face and limp figure slumped against the wall.F-Flash is right, I can't save Tails, but he needs to be saved. Amy cried in realization as she picked up Flash and slung him over her shoulder. "It's gonna be okay Flash. I tried, but I just wasn't good enough for rescuing Tails..." Amy sniffed. She then rushed towards the exit and leaped outside the garage.I'm sorry Tails... Amy cried as she noticed the quickly looked to see what they were looking at, a black body-bag."No!" Amy screamed as she looked to see some medics rushing to help began to feel dizzy as she saw the medic's mouth move, but she couldn't hear what they were saying to her. She felt her eyes get heavy as she fainted, taking a face-plant into the ground.

"Ow… what happened?" Amy cried, her head throbbing.

"You fainted. We took you and your friend in." A nurse calmly replied.

"But what about Tails?" Amy frowned.

"The authorities confirmed he died, surely you saw the body-bag" The medic sighed as he gave her a glass of water and a pain reliever. "Take the pill, it should help any pain you're feeling." He instructed.

"W-what about Flash?" Amy asked, hoping she didn't lose him as well.

"He's currently in the ER. we found some minor head trauma, but not too severe. We also still have to treat him for the burns on his face." He tried to put on a fake smile, which aroused anger in the pink hedgehog. "Don't worry, we're certain he'll be ok" The medic tried to calm her down.

"Ow! Don't touch those!" Flash cried. His nurse was trying to take care of the severe burns on his face."Hold still!" The nurse growled as she tried to pin Flash to the bed.

"Don't touch them!" He pouted as he fought like a wildcat.

"Don't make me get the needle" She threatened. Flash's face went pale in milliseconds as he heard the door slam open.

"Sue! Stop it this instant!" Flash's doctor growled as he kicked the nurse out of the room.

"Ok, I'm sorry. Sue isn't the nicest around here." He sighed. He made a reach for the stuff for Flash's burns.

"Please be careful" Flash whimpered as the doctor got to work on the burns.

"Sir! Look at this!" A minion said as he handed a newspaper to Doctor Eggman.

"Well what do we have here?" Eggman asked as he read the article. He frowned as he read the article.

"Sonic's dead?!" Eggman gasped as he read further. "Tails as well?!"

"Sir, I heard that their funerals are tomorrow." The minion spoke up.

"I should probably go, not to do anything wrong, but just because I knew him." Eggman sighed as he went to his bedroom to find his suit.

"Cream, calm down. Tell me what's wrong." Knuckles sighed.

"S-Sonic…T-Tails are dead." Cream was still flipping out.

"What?! How?!" Knuckles gasped, thinking Cream was pulling his leg.

"Sonic committed suicide…Tails died in an explosion in his garage…" Cream wiped her tears.

Knuckles displayed a cunning frown as he looked at the ground. "Is there gonna be a funeral for them?" Knuckles asked.

"Yes, it's tomorrow." Cream sighed.

"Ok, I'll see you then…" He sighed as he sulked away.

"Amy, we've confirmed you can leave. But your friend needs to stay till he's back in good health, okay?" Amy's nurse spoke.

"Okay…" Amy sighed in reply as she got up, she was going to pay a quick visit to Flash before she left though.

"Can I see Amy?" Flash asked."She might be coming now, of course you can see her." His doctor smiled. There was a knock on the door.

"Come on in" The doctor smiled as Amy poked her head through the door.

"Hey Flash, how you doing?" Amy asked, concerned.

"Fine, though my head is killing me. Is there something you need?" Flash asked.

"Could I have the key to your apartment?" She asked.

"It's in my shirt pocket on the chair." Flash smiled.

Amy walked over to the chair and reached in the shirt pocket. But what she found wasn't a key, but a small note.

Dear Amy,

I knew you'd ask for the key

Looking for it desperately

Over by the table in the drawer

Vainly awaiting an

Easy search

You're still looking in the

Open but look

Up on the shelf next to the chair.

-Flash
