"I-I… think I shall." Shadow stuttered.

Despite their initial reactions, Shadow held Amy close as he continued to massage her quills, liking her reaction to it. He didn't want to stop.

"It's not too bad, is it, Amy?" Sonic added, agreeing with Rouge.
"I didn't want to kiss him." Amy explained. "At least not yet."

"I like where you're going. I'll leave you in peace."

"So you can get me off your back, is it?" Amy muttered, but Sonic heard it.

"That's just an added bonus. You didn't want to kiss Shadow, so you dropped out."

"At least I made it to fifth place!" Amy bragged. "Now I've got one last challenge to give out. Who will it be? Ooh! Knuckles, truth or dare?"

"I'm not in the mood for dares any more. Truth."

"Then I hope you don't mind me asking you a tough question?"

"Not at all. Go for it."
"What's your biggest insecurity?"

"Now that's a whopper of a question, Amy. I'd have to say my intelligence level. I didn't get hired to guard the Master Emerald through wit alone."
"At least you were honest, Knux. I would have just lied right to her face." Sonic commended him for his honesty.

"So you have something worth lying about?"

"Sure I do, but I'm not gonna say it. Go ahead and start the next turn."

And that he did. For the nth time, he spun Rouge.

"I can't seem to keep the wheel off ya, Rouge. Truth or dare?"

"Hmmm… truth."

"Don't give me as an answer. Besides me, who would you say is the hottest guy in the room?"

"That's just not fair, Knuckie!"
"It's completely fair. Are you saying you won't answer?"

Rouge glared at him. "Fine. Let me see." She looked around the room. "That would be Vector. He looks manly."

All eyes focused on Vector. "I sure do!" He boasted.

"And humble too, boss." Charmy teased.

"Yeah, that's fair." He conceded.

Rouge spun the wheel to see who was up next. It landed on Sonic.

"It's your turn, Big Blue. Truth or dare?"

"Please, don't call me that. Truth."

"Tell me one thing you don't like about each of your team members."

Sonic grunted. "Let's see here. It's true that Tails is a genius and the brains behind some operations, but he barely does any of the work. It seems like he just watches. Sally seems to not like fighting, but she does accompany me on our missions. Sometimes I feel as if she's too gentle. Knuckles, I'm sorry to say this, isn't really known for his intelligence. And Amy doesn't know how to fight without her hammer. I'm sorry if anything I said is rude."

"You seem to have thought about this a lot." Shadow observed.

Sonic pointed to his head. "I've got the strengths and weaknesses of the whole team memorized so I can use them for what they're good at."

He spun the wheel to avoid further arguments. "Right back at ya, Knuckles."

"Truth."

"How you liking those heels?"

"They're definitely too small, but they look nice. Not my style though."

"You're rocking them, though! What do you mean not your style?"

"I don't like the hearts. Too feminine."

"Fair enough, macho man."

"Watch what you call me, Sonic." He warned. Knuckles' spin landed on Rouge once

more. Everyone except Knuckles laughed. He just looked disappointed.

"Well Rouge, you better get used to this. Truth or dare?"

"I'm tired of dares. Truth."

Knuckles seemed undecided until he spotted Tails. "Why did you kiss Tails during the fighting match?"

"It was easy. I needed a distraction because I didn't want to beat up a kid."

"At least you knew what you were doing." Tails interjected.

"I always do. You were really young and small back then."

"That's fair. I was eight or so."

"We can talk later. It's my turn now." Rouge spun the wheel and it landed on Cream, who seemed to be getting a break recently.

"Cream, it's finally your turn. Truth or dare?" Rouge asked.

"Another dare!" Cream did not seem tired of dares.

"I'm sorry to get you out," Rouge paused dramatically. "But I'm looking to win this game. Your dare is to punch anyone in the room as hard as you can."

Cream's face fell as she looked at the ground. "I don't know if I can."

"It's just one quick swing. One hit and it's all over."

"I don't want to hurt anyone!"

Sonic interrupted. "It's just one person, Cream. Punch me, bring it on."

"I don't want to, Mister Sonic. I'll just leave now." That being said, Cream sat beside Charmy on the half circle of chairs formed around the remaining three players.
