Hi! :) Could you do a prompt in which Amy is the last one standing out of all of the Resistance team, and Infinite did this specifically because he sensed the most resistance from her. So all of the resistance is just there wounded and looking at Infinite as he is trying to mentally break Amy down by saying she's not strong enough and by how much pain she is going through by trying to resist him pulling her into the dark side. And Sonic comforts her by saying all that wasn't true.

Prompt:
Amy rushes in to look for a distress call from one of her signals she's in charge over; however, as she runs to the area, a sudden red cube materializes by turning suddenly in the air.
Amy pauses, fear in her eyes. She'd been alone for so long… Eggman truly keeping his words about the '3 days' and this was to be the last…
She knew the others had to be okay, she just knew it! She wouldn't let herself think otherwise…
Even if no signals had come on her radar for hours…
"You look so worn…. Has the loneliness finally inflicted your stubborn ideal of hope?"
Amy's eyes shook as she stepped back, momentarily paralyzed by fear.
She had watched her comrades before being tossed left and right by Infinite's power, and with the world almost fully taken over…
He walked out from behind the building… a menacing, but calm look in the one eye she could see that watched her like a predator to its prey.
"I had hoped you'd come out of your little den…" he held up the communicator in his hand, before dropping it down to show he had tricked her. "I haven't sensed your fear in a long time…"
She gritted her teeth. That can't be right! There must be more of her friends out there! She can't lose hope now! She can't…
Suddenly, his eye flexed wider, an immense aura burst from him as the cube exploded and pushed Amy back.
"Ahh!" she was flung against the rocky road and tumbled to a stop.
"Now… Run."
She looked up, yanking her arm out to summon her hammer. She got up then and thought a moment about fleeing for her life…
But Amy's instincts told her otherwise…
She wasn't going to be afraid!
"Hyahhhh!" she charged forward, but that was one mistake she couldn't replace…
"Hmph. Your spirit irritates me…" he closed his eyes and then shot out a powerful energy beam.
It slashed into her legs, her knees almost fried with black, burnt marks as she came troubling down.
"Ah…ahhh…" she was face down on the ground now, sweat trinkling down the side of her face at the immense pain.
Her legs shook in agony, and she could feel the flesh crinkling away as if the corners of burning paper.
Her mouth hung open, as dirt gently flew in and she was too consumed in the pain to spit it out.
He walked over to her, as casually as a gentleman, before leaning down and spiking his pinkie finger up under her chin, forcing her head to move up and look at him.
Now she could close her mouth and taste the dust of defeat. Her eyes were squinted almost shut, but in the haze of her head throbbing she could still make out his shape and colors…
"Poor Amy Rose…" he began, his eye turning a cruel sense of tenderness, clearly sarcastic. "When will you ever learn? The time of heroes is passed… you're wasted… and your precious resistance futile. A thing of the past.." he lifted his free hand up, claws flexed out and ready at slash her face.
"When will you realize that you're pathetic heroes aren't the least concerned about you… they all fell knowing their end… Why must you be the one that can't turn her head to reality?"
Suddenly, a blue ball of light bounced down from high upon the ruined skyscrapers.
It bounced so fast that Infinite had to dodge each hit simultaneously from the rate of on-coming spin-dashes.
"Hm?" he thrust himself back, more cubes appearing before Sonic uncurled and stood before Amy, who was laying on her stomach, gasping for the heavy air to seize her lungs and bring her some relief to her tightening chest.
Sonic stood as a pillar of needed aid, a heroic figure that represented everything Amy believed in…
Everything.. she had wanted to believe in.
She didn't see the battle. She barely could.
When Sonic stirred her from passing out, she reached up and embraced him, crying at her trauma as her ears let out a static that made her unable to hear him.
He held her though, she remembered that.
He turned her and wiped some of the tears off her face, she felt that too.
She had cried the entire, cold ride up to the HQ.
Everyone quickly saw her and rushed to her aid, she was cared for, but no one had been able to get to Amy in the other base; considering they all knew Infinite was waiting for a counter-strike, and couldn't get a signal to Amy from Infinite hacking her lines.
This was the first time they'd seen her…
She was now awake in the hospital bed, recounting the image of Sonic setting her down there, a mask moved over her mouth as she tried to mouth his name. Finally, Sonic forced himself to move away as more people began swarming her, and her vision faded out.
The resistance was growing worried. They were losing hope because Amy began showing signs of PTSD. Not acting herself, and causing everyone to worry and fear the worst.
At the moment, she didn't care.
Ever since she accidentally heard Tails saying she may never walk again, she didn't care about much.
Sonic suddenly came in with a fire in his eyes at what she supposed he had heard from everyone.
About her hopeless state… refusing therapy for her legs… fighting everyone who dared tried to move her.
He looked behind him, to the people she assumed were outside that she had kicked out.
"I've got this. No one come in." He slammed the door and walked over to her, as she turned her head and body away from him.
He stopped right at her bed, "You can't act like this forever." he stated. "Depression? PTSD? You're kidding me, right?"
She threw the covers over her head, and he quickly moved around to throw them off and pushed her to move.
"Get up!" he knew better than the others… he knew what had really happened to her…
She fought him, struggling to push him away as her grunting efforts were little to no effect.
She fell off the bed and gripped the side, her head coming down.
"Up. Come on." he moved back over to the other side and slung her arm over his shoulders. "This isn't you. And you know it."
She could understand his anger was more righteous than cruel. She knew he understood… what she couldn't admit herself.
She looked at her legs, as they trembled while he pushed her up and onto them.
"Infinite doesn't define us," he stated, holding up her torso, helping her to stabilize as she hadn't been out of the bed for quite a while…
"Eggman said 3 days… it's been 4!" he stepped forward, and pulled her up alongside him, "Everyone needs you to be okay!"
He stepped forward again and she struggled to get her bearings, her feet slid across the floor to try and lift herself…
"Darn it, Amy! You're more than this!"
She suddenly glared at the ground, shaking her head.
"Move, Amy! You're Amy Rose, for crying out loud! You never give up! Infinite can be stopped! But we need you, Amy! We need you to show everyone that you defeated him!"
She suddenly understood the bigger picture.
With her current state, everyone was under the weather from it, and they weren't able to see a brighter future like before.
She… she had to make a comeback.
"Amy!"
She desperately tried then, gripping to the last moments she had of strength, and stepped forward… shakily feeling the gravity on her leg and how weak they were.
At least… the pain was gone.
"I need you to be okay-Amy!" he suddenly moved forward, and she stumbled to try and keep up his pace.
They both tumbled down as he gripped her head and body, taking the hit from the ground, and clinging to her.
She almost didn't notice, only thinking of herself, that he was growing emotional.
He breathed hard as she watched the tears form under his eyes…
Everybody needed her.
He needed the hope she brought too.
Before, she had sustained everyone's faith; kept them moving.
While she wasn't here, everyone must have feared the worst, until she came out, and Sonic must have spotted her, diving in to save the last hope that carried everyone on.
She had proved one thing, that 3 days wasn't enough, and Eggman overestimated.
It was time to prove that Infinite can't win all battles either.
She slammed her hand down and started to try and get up.
In shock, Sonic looked up at her from the ground and then her hand, before immediately getting up to help her.
They walked at an excruciating pace back and forth across the room.
Finally, they walked out the door, Amy holding his hands as he kept encouraging her, and the people around covered their mouths or grip their hears, praying…
She walked in the mist of them, him clinging to her arms, tightening his hold on them. "Show them, Amy." He stated, "Show me."
Amy looked up, and everyone could tell this was a struggle for her. Her feet suddenly gained strength from seeing their faces, seeing how much they wanted her to succeed.
They needed her too.
They needed to see it could be done.
That hope can save them from Infinite.
She suddenly took off, letting go of Sonic's hands and sprinting to the front stage where announcements were made. The weight of her body finally balancing with the new found sturdiness of her legs.
Sonic watched in amazement along with the rest of the resistance, as she scaled and tripped on the stairs, forcing herself up without Sonic this time… Straining to get her legs back under her, even in their worn state.
The skin snapped at different parts, showing the burnt wounds were still freshly healing, before she stood upon the stage and summoned her hammer.
She caught a second wind and rose her hammer high. "FOR THE RESISTANCE!"
They suddenly all held their breaths.
Sonic rushed up to the stage, putting a hand delicately to her back, just in case, and rose his own fist up. "The Resistance!"
The entire crowd broke out in tears and cheers.
"FOR THE RESISTANCE!" they chanted, over and over again.
