All good parties must come to an end. It was fun but now it's time everyone to leave. Without further ado, here's the final chapter.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE SONIC CHARACTERS. THEY BELONG TO SEGA.
ROSIE, RAPTOR AND VANILL BELONG TO ME!
The party concluded and everyone got ready to leave. Raptor cleared the area of the chairs everyone used during karaoke and everyone headed out the door to the X-Tornado. A few people were having conversations with before heading in the X-Tornado with Tails, including Sonic and Amy, who were talking with Rosie.
"So do you have any plans for tomorrow?" Rosie asked the two of them.
"I was thinking about kicking back and relaxing tomorrow." Sonic said.
"I'll be happy just being with my Sonic" Amy said as she got closer to Sonic.
"I was thinking, maybe if you guys aren't busy, we could hang out sometime." Rosie requested.
"Sure! Sounds great!" Amy and Sonic said simultaneously. The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
Everyone but Sonic and Amy made it in the X-Tornado and Tails was calling them.
"Sonic! Amy! Let's go!" Tails called.
"All right Tails! We're coming!" Sonic called back.
Sonic turned back to Rosie.
"I guess we'll see you around." Sonic said.
"Okay! You guys take care yourselves, okay?" Rosie said with a wink.
"We sure will!" Amy said as her and Sonic returned the wink. The two of them headed to the X-Tornado and got in. Before Tails could start it up and take off, Raptor flew toward them and knocked on the hatch, signaling Tails to open it so he could say something.
"Was there something else?" Tails asked.
"I just wanted you guys to know, if you guys need a safe place to go, my tower is always open!" Raptor offered.
"Thanks! We'll remember that." Tails said.
"Oh, and here." Raptor gave Tails a light blue Chaos Emerald-shaped object with a little bit of a white fog inside.
"And before you ask, this isn't a Chaos Emerald, it's one of the "mock" emeralds I invented. This is the Sky Emerald. If you use it's power, it'll transport you to the Sky Tower anytime you like without any hassle." Raptor explained.
"Thanks. I'll hold on to this." Tails said.
"You guys take care now! You're always welcome here!" Raptor said as he flew back to the tower while waving goodbye to the group. Tails started up the X-Tornado and got ready for liftoff.
"Okay guys! We're heading home!" Tails said as piloted the X-Tornado into the air headed away from the tower. As the group left for home, the Wonder Warriors were waving to their newfound friends. Soon the X-Tornado was out of sight.
"*sigh* Until next time my friends..." Rosie said silently.
"That was fun! I'm glad was apart of this." Raptor said.
Rosie turned to her teammates.
"Guys... Thanks a lot! I never could have done this party without you."
Vanill and Raptor smiled at their leader.
"It was our pleasure Rosie! I really liked meeting everyone!" Vanill said.
"And, as you say: 'Together we are stronger than anyone else could be all alone.'" Raptor said.
"I'm so glad to have such great teammates." Rosie said.
Raptor and Vanill gave Rosie a thumbs-up.
"Come on guys. We still have a bit of cleaning up to do." Raptor said as he led everyone inside. Vanill went on ahead and started to put away the karaoke machine, but Raptor stopped Rosie and gave her a stern look.
"Okay Rosie. Now that everyone is gone, it's time for you to start talking." Raptor said.
"Huh? About what?" Rosie asked confused.
"You know. After Espio and his group did their song, you were acting weird, and I want to know what's up." Raptor said assertively.
Rosie sighed. She didn't want to lie to Raptor and he wouldn't leave her alone until she talked so she decided to spill the beans.
"Oh all right. You know that purple chameleon guy?" Rosie started.
"You mean Espio?"
"Yeah, there was just something about him that made me curious. He seemed so mysterious, calm and cool. When I saw him, it gave off a comforting vibe that makes me sort of warm and fuzzy."
Raptor gave Rosie a sly smile.
"If my guess is correct, which it usually is, I think you have a little crush on Espio!" Raptor concluded.
Rosie blushed heavily at that remark.
"What?! Do not!" Rosie exclaimed.
Raptor wasn't buying it. "Really? Then why are you blushing?"
Rosie sighed again. She couldn't talk her way out of this.
"Okay! I don't know! I exactly know if I have a "crush" on him. For one thing, we just met, but he does intrigue me. I not sure what this feeling is."
"Okay. But you know, I figured if you had a crush on anybody, it'd be Sonic." Raptor said.
"I did, but he's already with Amy. But that's okay. I'm happy just being a fan."
Just then, Vanill came back from putting up the karaoke machine.
"Sorry I took so long! Should we finish cleaning up now?" Vanill asked.
"Yeah... But first we should take care of a bigger concern." Raptor said.
"And what's that?" Rosie asked.
Raptor turned to the buffet table. It turned out that even when everyone ate their fill, that was still lots of food left over.
"WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH ALL OF THIS EXTRA FOOD?!" Raptor exclaimed. All of them looked at the buffet table which was not even half eaten.
Sweat drops appeared on all three of their faces. Suddenly, their stomachs rumbled. They haven't eaten anything since the party.
"Oops! My stomach growled." Rosie said.
"So did mine!" Vanill said laughing. The two of the smiled.
"I guess we were so busy keeping our guests happy, we haven't eaten a thing!" Raptor said.
"You guys thinking what I'm thinking?" Rosie hinted her teammates.
There was a pause and then the three of them all shouted,
"CHOW TIME!" Rosie and Vanill both ran to the table and began fixing themselves plates.
"Hey! At least save me the ribs!" Raptor shouted as he ran to the buffet table with the girls.
The three of them ate their fill and spent the rest of the night with each other.
The end.
