Our main 5 friends stare at their friend Cream with utter shock.
"What do you mean you lost your voice?" Sonic said beginning to freak out.
Cream wanted to say something but she couldn't.
"Well now, what do we do?" Tails wondered.
"There's not a lot we can do bro unless Cream gets her voice back, we're out of the competition," Sonic replied being truthful but sad.
"And we worked so hard too, this can't be the end not just before it started," Amy said sadly.
Just then, there was a knock on their dressing room door.
"Come in," Sonic said politely.
The door opens and shows a female purple hedgehog with blue eyes and wearing some kind of red dress.
"Can we help you?" Rouge asked trying not to be rude.
She said nothing and just walked over to Cream.
Everyone looks confused at what was going on.
She hands Cream a bottle of some kind of liquid.
"Drink this and your voice should be healed before you guys head on," She said.
Cream nods and begins to drink it.
"Thanks a ton for your help, it really means a lot to us," Amy said as she smiled at the purple hedgehog.
"Hey, it's no prob. I just look out for others," The purple hedgehog replied. "Now if only my leader could understand that,"
"What do you mean?" Knuckles asked.
"My leader Sally Acorn is kind of a jerk hence why we kinda don't want her to win," She replied.
"Oh I know her, that really popular person who thinks she rules the school," Knuckles spoke annoyed.
"Yep, that would be her, now I just wish I could tell her we don't want to work with her anymore," The purple hedgehog spoke.
"Well, I'm sure you'll be fine Miss uhh" Sonic spoke but then realized he didn't know her name.
"Lucy, and I hope you're right. Oh, and good luck tonight and please don't tell Sally about this," Lucy said.
"We'll say nothing," Cream said as her voice was now restored.
"Thanks, I better be going, see you guys," Lucy said as she exited the room.
