" Sonic, wait up! "

Sonic sighed in irritation as he finally stopped and turned to face the source of the annoying voice, " What is it now, Amy? "

Said pink hedgehog slowed to a stop, pausing to catch her breath before looking up at him with a fierce glare, " I've been trying to find you for ages, Sonic! Where have you been? "

" Around. Why? "

Amy Rose sighed and shook her head, her bob-styled quills swaying slightly as she did, " Tails needs to talk to you. Something's happened at the military base on Metal Harbor. "

Before Amy could say even another syllable, Sonic left in his trademark blue blur towards Tails' workshop.

Amy sighed, " He's such a pain sometimes. " She then started running after him again, " Wait for me, Sonic! "

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A young two tailed fox sat before his computer, furiously typing something. His expression was nothing less than serious. What could have possibly caused a disruption of this level at Metal Harbor?

" I'll bet it's Eggman again. That pot-bellied maniac can never stay quiet for long. "

Had it been anyone else, Tails would have jumped in surprise and accidentally messed up his computer in surprise, but he was used to Sonic's sudden arrivals by now, " Possibly. I think we should check it out. "

Sonic thought for a bit, his emerald eyes scanning the monitor, " Hmm. We should probably get Knuckles and Rouge to go with us too in case things get ugly. "

Miles Prower blinked in surprise at what Sonic had just said. Usually, Sonic was too proud and cocky to actually gather help willingly. Usually Knuckles and/or Rouge would come on their own, leaving him with no choice. Tails finally shrugged it off, " Yeah, but what about- "

" Sonic! "

Said hedgehog twitched as Amy ran into the workshop, stopping to catch her breath before turning another glare at him, " Why do you always leave me behind? "

" Because you keep following me. " That only earned him another glare from Amy, which he ignored as he turned back to the computer.

Tails shook his head at them. It was so obvious that Sonic didn't share the same feelings for Amy that she did. He was beginning to feel sorry for her, but he was past the point of doing anything about it. Both were too stubborn to listen to him about it, anyway.

" Anyways, you want me to head to Metal Harbor while you round up Knuckles and Rouge? "

Tails nodded at Sonic and Sonic nodded also before taking off, leaving a distraught Amy behind.

Tails got off his swivel chair and walked over to the pink hedgehog, putting a comforting hand on her shoulder, " Amy, you should probably stay here. Sonic needs some room to breathe every so often. "

" But- "

" Don't worry, he'll be fine. I promise. " Amy Rose eventually sighed and sat down on Tails' couch, crossing her arms in a sulk. The twin tailed fox just shook his head as he left the workshop toward his Tornado.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sonic eventually skidded to a stop as he reached one of the many ramps of Metal Harbor, looking around with slightly narrowed eyes. Planes and robot parts were all over the place, giving the impression of a previous attack on the base.

Sonic's cobalt ears twitched as he heard Tails' Tornado and two figures land behind him, " What took you guys so long? "

Rouge rolled her heavily eyeshadowed eyes, " What do you think? It took us nearly a half hour to pry the knucklehead from the Master Emerald. I swear he's becoming obsessed. "

Knuckles glared at her, his violet eyes piercing at her, " It's not my fault i'm the one stuck with the job of protecting it! You think I enjoy it? "

" Guys! We need to focus on the issue at hand. Stop fighting already! " Tails really couldn't stand it when they fought like that. Why couldn't they just admit their obvious feelings for each other? Was he really the only one who wasn't a total idiot on these things?

Sonic nodded, " Tails is right. Let's split up and search for clues. Be on your guard in case the attacker's still hear and holler if you find anything attention worthy. " They nodded and split up. Tails changed his plane to the heavy metal walker he had become fond of and left also.

Sonic watched them leave, then started looking around as he walked alone.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sonic had been walking around for an hour and still hadn't found anything outside of metal scraps around. Man, this place really got trashed.

Sonic let out a sigh as he leaned against a closed shed door, closing his eyes, " This is really starting to piss me- "

Before the cerulean hedgehog could finish the sentence, the door collapsed due to his weight, making him fall into the shed with the door.

Sonic eventually sat up, rubbing his spiky quilled head, " Ow! That fricken- "

Once again his sentence was cut short, this time by what he saw when he opened his eyes.

Right in front of him was what seemed to be a stasis capsule, and inside the liquid filled tube was an unconsciousfemale hedgehog.

How was this chapter? I write short chapters most of the time, so..yeah. I just hope this was up to your expectations, or that you liked it. I'll stop rambling now, sorry.

Please review. Until next time, i'll be seeing you!
