Check the Sonic Games! I don't own anything except The Lost Cavern.

Thanks Greenhat, but I bet that is the only mistake you'll ever find...

Rouge was last to walk into the lighter area. She gasped at the site, to her right a pile of rocks formed to make stairs descending to a floor that seemed to be covered in a thin layer of water. Some of the formation attached to the roof, making pillars going down the stairway. The beautiful bright light were, according to the buzzing sound and obvious things flying around, were of course fireflies.

"There are hundreds maybe thousands!" Tails exclaimed as he ran in the water creating small splashes.

Sonic was carefully walking down the strange stairway but accidentally slipped on some moss and tumbled down, crashing into Amy along the way. A sloppy splash signalling they both hit the floor.

Rouge laughed uncontrollably. 'Finally wasn't me for a change!' She flapped her wings and flew down to where Tails was. "What a slippery situation that was." Rouge laughed again while Tails ran over to help them using his tails to keep steady.

Sonic wiped the water and mud from his face before opening his eyes. Finally lifting himself up he shook his head and looked around, his eyes falling upon the soft pink furred hedgehog known as Amy. "AAH!" Sonic squealed and quickly jumped off Amy just as Tails came up to them. "Aheh heh heh Sorry Amy..." pinkish colours making itself apparent on Sonics face.

"Oh Sonic..." Amy held her cheeks, trying to hide the obvious red on her face. A look of happiness spread across her face despite the fact of being wet and covered in moss and mud.

"Umm... Are you two okay?" Tails pulled Amy to her feet, removing the fact that something happened that was very embarrassing.

"Okay! Now Rouge is there any way to tell where we are." Sonic ran over to Rouge, deleting the earlier scene from his mind.

Rouge looked at him queerly; she covered her mouth and resisted the almighty rope tugging in her mind. That in all senses wanted her to laugh. "And I would know... Why?" She ceased any signs of herself going out of control.

Sonics' ears went down, as his brain configured what there was now, no way out.

"Wait a minute..." Tails interrupted. "If there is water leaking into here it must be getting out...or we could find where the water is leaking in but that would be slippery."

The floor slightly rumbled. Everyone sweat dropped as the rumbling got louder until...

Higher in the Cavern

Due to the fact that Knuckles didn't have any torches or any gear, at all. He was walking in darkness. Holding the rope that Sonic had attached to his backpack, he trailed it carefully. Making sure not to run into anything, but he still sadly enough had tripped on a few rocks.

"Stupid bunch of..." He finished short as the floor rumbled and shifted. A familiar smell passed by his nose. The rumbled ceased and the smell disappeared.

He began to stand up again but the rumbling sent him to the ground, worse than before. The loud splat of when he crashed into the moss was drowned out by the rumbling.

As the rumbling slowed down, Knuckles lifted his head and looked around. "Okay... I won't get up then." He grumbled a little, but as the rumbling definitely seemed to cease. He got up and continued following the rope, but he kept his hand on the wall...just in case.

Back

Amy held onto one of the rock pillars as the rumbling got worse. "I don't know about you! But I want to get out of here!" She shouted over the noise.

As if someone said. 'It possibly can't get any worse.' A large crack started at one wall and split to the other. The loud tearing sound seemed to echo all around. They all screamed as it collapsed and Sonic and Amy fell down into the dark depths. Tails and Rouge flew above.

As the rumbling ceased, Tails pulled a large torch out of his backpack. "Sonic!" He lowered to the large pile of rocks. Searching with his light. "Sonic! Come on! Where are you?"

Rouge lowered to just above the rocks and began moving them. Water trickled onto the rocks, making a mist. That slowly but surely covered most of the area.

"Sonic! Amy!" Tails was close to tears. How could his best friends just die? Just like that?

Rouge was about to try comfort the little fox but something hit her on the back of her head, knocking her out cold. The same fate following the fox.

Sometime later

Sonic could slowly feel everything coming back to him. "Ugh" Some pain in his back and legs, his head was throbbing something terrible. And by what he could tell he had blood on his head where it was throbbing and he maybe had gotten smashed in the nose, for it was bleeding. "Someone please tell me I wasn't drinking." He tried to move his arms but failed miserably. Something was holding them down and same with his legs.

"Whoa!" He had chains that were, apparently holding him to a rock wall that was slightly wet. "Amy?" He thought it strange for her to be the first thing that popped into his head. "Amy?" He said a little louder. Upon better inspection it seemed she was chained just to the left of him, Tails on the right and Rouge chained next to Tails.

"Hey! Anyone alive? Say I!" Sonic watched Tails for a reaction but the large bump on his head told him that he wasn't guna be up anytime soon.

"I..." A small whisper was easy to hear over the low pitter patter of water. Sonic looked over to his left, Amy was awake. She had a few bruises but nothing too serious.

"Hey are you ok?" Sonic watched her as she shook her head a little.

"Yeah... I think so, ummm where are we." Amy looked around but the darkness hid beyond the wall. "And why are we chained on a wall."

"Might be Eggman but I don't know." Sonic shook his head. "Or for all we know, Tails may have been right and Shadow is guna kill us all." Sonic chuckled a little but Amy failed to find it amusing.

"If he kills us I'm guna chase you through heaven for the rest of your afterlife." Amy said blankly.

Sonic sighed. "I never get a break..."

"If you did then the world would probably be gone." Sonic turned to his right, Rouge was awake. Looked a little drowsy but nonetheless, she was up. "Hey." She looked at them. "Where's our stuff."

Apparently Rouges, Sonics, Tails and Amys gear was gone.

"There it is." Amy motioned her head to her left, and of course in the corner was their gear.

"Shhhh!" Rouge hushed and Sonic and Amy silenced themselves. Sonic was going to ask but knew what she was talking about when he heard some low whispering. Slowly getting louder, footsteps could also be heard as the clicking of metal on rock echoed around, louder than the water.

"Wait... I know that voice." Sonic whispered to the others.
