Author's note: ok, I think it's understood that I don't own any of the characters that appear in SatAM Sonic or the comics. If I did, I would not be writing stories about them on Fanfiction.net; I would be making money off of them as I speak;)
Also, I do not own any other copyrighted characters from any of my other fics, so let's just leave it at that so I can stop wasting precious space with these stupid disclaimers!!!

Latifah had no time to think. All she knew was there were at least ten SWATbots coming her way, and she was dead meat if she didn't shoot.
It was hard to see in the dark building, but the banshee had no choice; Knuckles could not come because he would be cumbersome to carry.
A blast from one of the SWATbots hit Latifah, singing her right shoulder.
"Aargh!!! Sonofab****!" she yelled, before letting out another round of blasts from her gun.
Then, a woman with short brown hair appeared and started firing. And a blonde woman was carrying off an unconcious Bunnie.
Latifah's head swam. This was not supposed to happen! But then again, in war, one must always expect the unexpected.
****************************************************************************************************************************
"Bunnie Rabbot's been captured!" a Freedom Fighter's voice crackled over the radio.
"What?" a shocked Sally yelled.
Oh, no! They're gonna roboticize her!
"She's been captured by some strange human, and the weird part is, the human looked like it was hugging her, like a stuffed toy!"
"What the hell...?" Sally mumbled to herself.
She felt her stomach jump.
Odd... Sally had been in situations twice as stressful and never experienced any nausea...
"Retreat!" she yelled into her radio, "We're gonna have to re-"
Her order was interrupted by the forceful expulsion of the contents of her stomach.
"Are you alright?" came Sonic's worried voice over the radio.
"Mph! I'm fine-" Sally answered, throwing up a second time, "We gotta get outaa here! Regroup!"
"Right, Sal!" Sonic replied, still sounding concerned.
The squirrel fled the building she was in, ignoring the vomit that now decorated her fur and vest.
"It's gonna be hell gettin' this s*** out," she grumbled.
****************************************************************************************************************************
In Carley and Donna's ship, Charles was sleeping in his 'cage', which was furnished with blankets, and had dishes for food and water.
Donna had secretly given him the key, which meant he could get out when he needed to.
"I may be an 'animal'," he explained, "But I wasn't raised in a barn!"
He had to be careful, though, since Donna and Carley shared the same room, as well as the same bed. They also would make love, right where he could see, forcing him to hide under the blanket or pretend to sleep so as not to view their choreography.
Chuck heard the women coming back, so he crawled under the blanket and hid the device he was working on.
"Oh, Chuckie! I got friend for you!"
Donna was carrying Bunnie Rabbot in her arms.
"Bunnie? What didja do t' her?" he demanded, pretending to hate her.
"Oh, her's just takin a wittwe nap," Donna replied, talking baby-talk to make it look like the two mobians were just pets.
She opened the cage door and put Bunnie in. Then she and Carley both walked into the washroom, shedding their clothes as they did.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Back at Knothole...
"Incoming wounded!"
Knuckles was ready with his med-kit.
Triage. That was what he was reduced to. Not that it wasn't important, but he would rather be on the front-line, especially when the master-emerald and his island were at stake.
There were several wounded Freedom Fighters, but no sign of Bunnie.
He stopped to clean the wounds on one, stopping the bleeding and spraying the areas with antiseptic.
"Where's Latifah?" he asked.
"She's still on her way her," the Freedom Fighter answered, "Something weird happened back at Robotropolis"
"Yeah? What happened?"
"Bunnie was captured by some strange human, one who was supposedly 'hugging' her"
Knuckles raised an eyebrow.
"And that's not all; Uncle Chuck's missing, Sally threw up, and Latifah froze!"
"What???"
"Like I said, she was acting like she was in 'La-la Land'. We had to practically drag her out!"
That's odd, the echidna thought.
Knuckles finished cleaning the wounds, then waited for the next patient. But as the one he worked on was being taken to the next room, the echidna' leg-brace caught on the patient's sheet, pulling it off.
"Oh, s***!" Knuckles cursed.
****************************************************************************************************************************
The mobian psychic sneaked through the now quiet Robotropolis. She had found another emerald, this time, what looked like a piece of an emerald.
Glancing nervously around the room, she pocketed it.
The anthropomorph hated this place, hated the memories it gave her.
She wandered through the city, looking for more fragments, all the while keeping her guard up.
Jarad would be back, and if she wasn't careful, would succeed in whatever he had planned.
Neither one could reach the other one's thoughts; both people were well-versed at mind-shielding, and could only sense each other's psy-waves, the eminations made by all psychics.
Right now, she would just have to be on alert, and only sleep within the vicinity of Knothole. That way, Jarad couldn't capture her without allerting the natives and breaking the non-interference law.
Suddenly, she caught sight of a very familliar person. That did it. She made a bee-line for the exit.
****************************************************************************************************************************
"Well, here are the test-results," the doctor said.
Sally knew what he was about to say. That look in his eyes said it all.
"Y-you mean I'm pregnant?" she asked.
The doctor nodded.
"I wouldn't suggest an abortion, since it would be more traumatic on your body then a birth would"
"Oh, no," Sally said, "I would never ask for an abortion, unless it was a tubal-pregnancy. I would never harm my own flesh and blood"
"Well, people are going to find out, so I suggest you marry the father of your child, and I think I know who he is..."
Sally nodded and left the doctor's hut.
The squirrel walked to her own hut and into her room, and lay down on her bed.
She patted her tummy, knowing that there was a little person inside.
"Hello, little guy-or girl," Sally said, chuckling, "I'm your mommy!"
Then she sighed. Would Sonic marry her?
She walked to her mirror and looked at herself. There was a woman staring back at her, not a wide-eyed child.
Sally remembered, very well, the good old days, when she didn't have much to concern herself with...
Sally! Stay out of the mud!
Sally! Go to bed!
No, Sally, stay away from that. You could get hurt!
Now she was going to be a mother, and she was going to make sure her baby had a father as well. Sally didn't know her mother that well, since she died a couple years before Robotnik took over.
The squirrel turned to leave her room, but saw someone kneeling in front of her. She smiled, and took the ring from his outstretched hand.
"I do"
****************************************************************************************************************************
Latifah walked back to Knothole, pride bruised. She had frozen-up again, and almost got her team killed. It was like she was incomplete fighting there alone, without Knuckles.
She reached the village, and saw him, along with some others, treating the wounded.
My fault! All my fault! the banshee thought.
She hesitantly approached Knuckles, who was busily spraying antiseptic on a platypus. He looked up and smiled, but before he could speak, he started shaking.
Alarmed, Latifah caught the echidna before he could fall and injure himself. She looked at his eyes, and saw they were rolled back. Knuckles was having a seizure!
The banshee grabbed an oxygen-mask and put it over the echidna's muzzle.
"Breath! D***it! Breath!"
Oh, s***!
"Don't die! D***it! Don't die on me! Breath!"[author's note: I don't know if that's what you really do when a person is having a seizure; I just got that from the movie, 'The Bone-Collector']
Then, Knuckles took in a deep, sucking breath. His eyes were wide open, staring straight at Latifah.
"Knuckles! Say something!"
"Something," the echidna answered, before breaking into a weak laugh.
Latifah chuckled a little. She lifted the still-disoriented echidna off the ground, and onto a stretcher.
"What the hell happened?" Sonic asked, running from the Princess's hut.
"I don't know," Latifah replied, "But I think Knuckles just had an epileptic seizure"
"What?"
"That shot to the head back when you two were escaping from Robotropolis. It must've damaged his brain"
Sonic cursed.
"Well, you take over, while I check on him. I'll tell you how he's doing"
Latifah nodded, and started tending to the patient Knuckles was working on.
****************************************************************************************************************************
"You sure like those fur-balls, don't you, Donna?"
Donna smiled at her lover, then splashed her.
"Look, Donna, be serious," Carley said, "Those two mobians you got in there could be trouble. The New Confederation could take over any time, and if they found out we've been messing with the natives here, we can kiss our jobs and life as we know it 'good-bye'"
"Don't worry," Donna replied, "Thanks to Julian's work, we'll be in hiding before they get here. 'Short, stinky & ugly' won't know what hit him"
Carley laughed, then splashed Donna.
"Yes, Love, you and I are gonna get those emeralds, then become queens of Mobius. We won't have to deal with that bastard for long"
Donna kissed Carley on the mouth, and grabbed her. Carley giggled. She loved it when Donna was in the mood.
They continued in their sex-play. What Donna didn't know is that Carley had no plans to share her throne. She would leave Donna for the New Confederation officials, who would do who-knows-what with her.
While they were in the middle of love, Donna's legs began to hurt. She broke off abruptly and got out of the tub..
"Donna, what's wrong?" Carley asked.
"Oh, nothing... I just need to rest a little"
Donna limped out of the bathroom, while Carley stayed in the bathtub, thinking it was just one of those leg-cramps her lover would sometimes get.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Donna lay on her bed, her legs still hurting.
"What's wrawng?" Bunnie, now awake, drawled.
"I don't know. My legs hurt," Donna said.
She got up, but fell back on the bed. Her legs would not hold her up.
"You alright, Donna?" a concerned Chuck asked.
"I don't know... I'm gonna lay down for awhile... You know what to do..."
Donna lay back down on her bed and dozed off.
Chuck and Bunnie got out of the cage and stood by the washroom door. Whe Carley came out, Chuck grabbed her leg and bit it.
"OWCH!!! What the f***?!?"
The naked woman turned around and tried to get the old hedgehog off. She sat down on the floor and tried to shake her leg free, then felt a blow to her head, and passed out.
"Well, well, we do maik a good team, don't we?" Bunnie asked, her robotic arm obviously having met it's mark.
The two mobians tied up Carley and put her in the cage, and kept the key with them. There was only room for one human in the cage, so they would have to improvise with Snively.
"You call Snively, and Chuck an' I will do the rest, which is somethin' you look like you need, sugah!" Bunnie said.
"Ok, and nice job"
"He he! I hope she likes the 'present' I left for her," Chuck laughed.
Donna giggled, then reached for her comm.
Chuck and Bunnie positioned themselves by the door, while the now sickly-looking human contacted Snively, trying to sound seductive.
"Oh, Snively, someone wants you. It's very 'important'"
****************************************************************************************************************************
The mobian psychic sneaked back to Robotropolis. She was scared, but she had to do this. The fragments of the master emerald had to be gathered, or Knothole would be destroyed.
Robotnik or not, she would have to go back.
And the psychic could sense Jarad. He was close, and was obviously bent on capturing her, but for what?
She brushed the sweat from her perm. Her mouth was dry, but she was sweating heavily.
Then she saw that familiar face again, but he was tied up.
Strange...
The mobian walked up to the tied up Robotnik.
"H-hello?" he said, clearly frightened.
He doesn't even remember me... she thought.
"Julian," the mobian asked, "what happened?"
"Who are you?"
Who am I? It depends on who you are... And who I choose to be at the moment...
"Pyjamas"
to be continued...
