The employee at the chili dog stand boredly tapped his fingernails against the counter. Business sure was slow when chili dogs were stolen to be poisoned.
Just then, he jumped up upon hearing a sudden breakage of the sound barrier, and the very next second, a blue hedgehog, wearing a detective suit, had stopped right in front of him.
"Oh... weren't you here before?"
The hedgehog nodded. "Sonic's the name. Sherlock Sonic!" He introduced his gang once they approached. "This is Tails Watson, Number One Amy, and..... er... They're Knuckles and Cream."
The two rolled their eyes. "Hey..."
"Sorry guys, but Sherlock Homes really didn't have so many people following him!" Sonic laughed nervously.
"Can I... help you?" the employee asked.
Sonic leaned over the counter to be eye to eye with the man, "These missing chili dogs... tell us what you know!"
"I already told you. Some guy came last night and took all the food, saying he was going to poison them!"
"Number One Amy, take notes!" Sonic ordered.
Amy immediatley pulled out a notepad and began scratching in words. "Some guy... last night... poison food..."
"Tell me... this 'guy'... what did he look like?"
The employee thought hard on this. "I... think.. it was too dark to see! I couldn't make out."
Amy wrote down, "Too dark..."
"How about his height?"
"Er.... Uh... I guess... tall?"
Amy wrote, "Tall..."
"HOW tall?"
"Taller than... me of course, since I'm a midget."
Cream giggled, but Tails elbowed her.
Amy wrote, "Man is midget..."
Sonic rolled his eyes. "Thanks. I guess that'll do. Number One Amy, review the notes."
Amy looked up, almost suprised. "Uh..."
"Come on Amy, just read what you wrote down."
Amy blushed, and slightly giggled. "Whatever you say!" She looked down at her pad, "Sonic & Amy Forever! I love you, Sonic! Sonic And Amy To be Married. Amy Slash Sonic.... and I drew a couple hearts."
Sonic shook his head. "We'd... better go find some more clues. Come on!"
Right after everyone left, the man let out a sigh of relief. "That was a close on...."
Meanwhile, Sonic and the gang walked around Mobius trying to find more clues about the chili dog situation. Then all of a sudden, 15 to 20 people are surrounding Sonic and the guys. They were holding signs up and had anger in their eyes.
"Wha... what's goin on here?" Tails asked with fear.
"YOU stole our chili dogs!!!" one guy yelled.
"We're now gone hungry!!!! Give us our food back!!!!" a teenaged girl shouted.
Sonic and his crew came closer to each other, nervous as heck.
"Bu.... bu... but......" Amy muttered.
"But WHAT?" the girl asked.
"What she is trying to say is..... all of us didn't take the chili dogs." Sonic explained to the furious people of Mobius.
Then everybody looked at each other. "Then WHO did?"
Sonic came up to the audience (which were the 15 to 20 people) and stood up straight like a detective.
"Every good citizen of Mobius!!!!" Sonic started out. "I am a witness on this case. I know you all have heard that the person who stole the chili dogs will use them to poison you all and everybody else on Mobius. Right?"
"We've heard." everyone shouted.
"Does anyone here know who took the chili dogs?"
"No."
Sonic then ran up to a tall man with paper and a pencil in his hands.
"Do you have any clues or 'where-abouts' of this chili dog poisoner and stealer?"
The man rolled his eyes, trying to remember what happened. "Well..... it was late last night and I got a little hungry, so I went to this store on west Mobius that opened 24 hours to get some chili dogs. I came up to the chili dog aisle and saw a man with an orange beared and a "Snack Shack" hat on, who was a midget. I ran up to him. I asked why he was taking all of those chili dogs and he told me that he was gonna take every chili dog and use it to poison everybody on Mobius. That's all the info I can give you."
Meanwhile, Sonic was taking notes. "Thanks for the info." Then, he ran up to Knuckles,Tails, Cream, Amy, and Cheese to read the notes outloud.
"Gang," he started out, "I've got the info from one man. Here's my notes that I took from him. 'Felt hungry.... Went to store to get chili dogs..... Saw man...... Had an orange beared and Snack Shack hat on..... Told man that he'll steal all chili dogs and poison them..... Man is a midget.' "
"Wait a minute....." Cream started out. "That man who stole the chili dogs sounds and looks awfully familiar."
"You're right." Tails said. "Who was that man??"
Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Cream, Cheese, and Amy thought about it for a long while.
***
"I KNEW it all along!!!" Knuckles hissed, as he held the collar of a frightened, bearded lady at a nearby circus. "YOU took all our food, didn't you?? DIDN'T YOU?!"
"Knuckles, you leave that poor bearded lady alone!" Amy scolded.
Knuckles turned back, eyeing her and the rest fiercely. "Why? It's obvious SHE'S the culprit! Orange beard, midget size...."
"Knuckles, you can't just assume it's someone off the bat!" said Sonic, "We need to look for more thorough clues!"
"Oh yeah?" Knuckles slyed, "Then how do you explain.... THIS?!" He held up high an ant farm.
Cream gasped. "SHE DID DO IT!!!"
"Gimme those!!" the bearded lady shouted, snatching them back, "They're for the fire-breathing ant acts in an hour!"
Knuckles glared at her, "I'm onto you..."
"And I'M onto YOU!!!" exclaimed a voice. And just then, a giant fish hopped on Knuckles' back, laughing insanely.
"Hey!!! Get offa me!!!" Knuckles waved wildly to try and grab the fish off. "STUPID CIRCUS FOLKS!!!"
Sonic shook his head, "Talk about a red herring..."
Tails and Amy ran inside the tent looking for the bearded lady. "Wait a second! We need to ask questions!"
Amy and Tails looked around in the tent. The darkness obscured their vision and they couldn't see.
Amy pouted, "How in the heck am I supposed to find her?"
Tails moaned, "Oh Amy, that's the only entrance into the tent. We will find her."
"Hey, how come I can't move my arms?"
"I can't either! I feel like i'm tied up or something!"
A voice screeched, "You are!" The lights suddenly flashed. Tails and Amy saw that they were tied up in chains! The bearded lady had a vile grin on her face. She cast her eyeglasses away, revealing her blood red eyes.
Amy screamed, "Mother Robotnik!"
Mamma Robotnik screeched, "You call me Mamma Robotnik you prissy girl! My son was innocent! Eggman can't seem to do anything himself, so you can thank me for taking your food and poisoning it!"
She then stood next to a large, draped object and pulled the cover off of it. It was a red-orange convertible!
A crane pulled on Amy's and Tails' chains, carrying the two. They plunged into the open trunk after the crane let go. Mamma Robotnik ran and jumped into the car. It was built to drive on the left side of the road, with the steering wheel on the right side.
After a bunch of ant farms were loaded into the trunk, the trunk popped shut, and Amy and Tails were trapped. As soon as Mamma Robotnik pressed a button, a refrigerator on a wheel and axle drove itself and hooked up to the convertible.
Mamma Robotnik started the car and screeched, "Yeehaw!" as she drove through the tent.
Just then, he jumped up upon hearing a sudden breakage of the sound barrier, and the very next second, a blue hedgehog, wearing a detective suit, had stopped right in front of him.
