Here's chapter 8! Thanks for all the reviews people. I appreciated them.

Chapter 8:

Six Flags Great America

In the morning, the gang found out they were somehow in Chicago. They had no idea why they were here or how they got here. Either way they blamed Sonic who was far away in a mental institution in Sydney.

"Well, we're in Chicago. What's there to do here?" Shadow asked.

"I don't know let's ask a local or something." Knuckles suggested.

So, Shadow went outside their house, which was now in Chicago, and next door. He knocked on the door. A little boy answered. When he saw the black and red hedgehog, he yelled, hit Shadow with his plate he was holding and slammed the door. Shadow rubbed his head and knocked again. This time a woman answered. Shadow hoped she didn't have any plates.

"Hello, may I help you?" she asked.

"What's there to do in Chicago?" Shadow asked.

The woman began listing a million things you could do. Shadow listened to most, but left on the 89th thing do to something sparkly out of the corner of his eye. He walked back home.

"Well?" Rouge asked.

"There's an amusement park. Want to go there?" Shadow asked.

"Sure, why not?" Rouge shrugged.

"Wait, where is it?" Knuckles asked.

"That's question, the taxi driver will answer." Shadow said walking out the door and flagging down a taxi.

Everyone followed and soon they were all in a taxi along with a blue hedgehog.

"Sonic?" Amy asked.

"Yeah, what are you guys doing in Chicago?" Sonic asked.

"We don't know. But, aren't you supposed to be in a mental institution?" Knuckles asked.

"I got out. Once I realized you guys left me and didn't evaporate into oblivion like I thought, I calmed down." Sonic explained.

"Wait, what happened?" Knuckles asked.

Sonic told the story all over again and this time everyone understood.

"So, where're ya headed?" Sonic asked.

"Six Flags." Shadow answered.

"Neato." Sonic said.

"Wait, I just remembered I hate roller coasters." Tails said.

"Baby." Knuckles muttered.

"Your mom." Tails said.

"My mom's dead so it doesn't make any sense." Knuckles explained.

"Your emerald." Tails said.

"My emerald! Noooooooo!" Knuckles cried.

Knuckles went into a crying fit, Tails was signing autographs and Rouge was comforting Knuckles who was sucking his thumb.

They arrived at Six Flags Great America. When they stepped out of the taxi, a roller coaster zoomed over their heads with people screaming on it.

"No, we can't go here! They'll kill us! Listen to the cries of those innocent people who are dying painfully as we speak!" Sonic yelled pouring out the drama.

"They're just screaming because they're on a roller coaster Sonic. Chill okay?" Knuckles said.

The rest walked into the amusement park while Sonic wrote his will. They waited in line for a long time until Shadow threatened the people in front of them with his gun. Soon they were the first ones.

They got their tickets and went inside. They all discussed what they would do.

"What ride should we do first?" Amy asked.

"THE FERRIS WHEEL!" Tails yelled.

"No! We hate your baby ideas Tails! Go ride it yourself if you want to!" Shadow yelled at the small kitsune.

"How about Superman?" Knuckles asked.

"What's that?" Sonic asked.

Knuckles craned Sonic's head around to face a big red, blue and yellow roller coaster. Sonic literally turned green and ran to a trash can to release his breakfast.

"I wanna ride it." Shadow said looking at the track.

"Then let's split into groups. Who likes roller coasters and thrill rides?" Knuckles asked.

Shadow, Rouge and Knuckles raised their hands. After that it was settled. Shadow, Knuckles and Rouge stuck together, Amy and Tails rode the less thrilling rides and Sonic tried to find out what music people like in Chicago so he could sing without getting bombarded with objects.

Knuckles, Rouge and Shadow went on all the roller coasters 15 times. When they were riding a roller coaster called the Raging Bull for the 8th time they saw Sonic on a stage, surround by literally everyone in the park listening to him signing rock.

"Wait… If everyone's over where Sonic is… that means no ones controlling this ride." Rouge said in thought.

"Your point?" Shadow asked.

"We're gonna die." Knuckles answered for him.

"Oh………… WAIT, WHAT!" Shadow yelled.

But it was too late. The rollercoaster reached the top of the hill. Everyone jumped out of the coaster to go listen to Sonic and now it was just the misfortunate hedgehog, bat and echidna. The coaster plummeted down the hill. The track was broken and the coaster went flying off with Knuckles, Rouge and Shadow still in it. The coaster crashed into the stage where Sonic was singing and it blew up.

The audience walked away whistling and got back on the rides. The smoke cleared to reveal a damaged stage. Knuckles came out from under the coaster coughing. He looked ahead of him and saw Sonic in a white robe with golden wings and a halo.

"Oh my gosh, Sonic died! He's a… angel?" Knuckles yelled.

Shadow and Rouge came out and looked at the blue angel. It began playing a harp and signing.

"Why did you guys ruin my performance?

I was doing oh so good.

But you had to come and wreck it all.

And worst of all kill me-e-e-e-ee! "

The angel stopped signing and stared at the gaping trio. Suddenly, the roller coaster car blew up and Sonic came out from under it. Knuckles, Rouge and Shadow turned to him.

"Hey guys. Who's ya new friend?" Sonic asked looking at the angel that resembled him.

There was an awkward silence and then it was broken my Sonic's screaming.

"I'm dead! That's my angel and I'm dead! Why? Why, did I have to die?" Sonic cried.

"Will someone explain what's going on?" Shadow asked.

The angel faded and Sonic began cracking up.

"What's so funny?" Rouge asked.

"You guys actually fell for it! I'm not dead, I'm not even hurt! It was a hologram you idiots! Oh, that was funny!" Sonic said between laughs.

Everyone turned red- except Knuckles who already was- and threw Sonic in the garbage can. They then went to find Amy and Tails so they could leave.

Amy and Tails were eating corndogs and watching an acrobat do flips. The acrobat fell and everyone gasped, the acrobat cracked a joke and everyone laughed- probably because the audience was robots except Tails and Amy.

"Ready to go?" Knuckles asked.

"I thought you'd never ask." Amy sighed. "Where's Sonic?"

"Don't know don't care." Knuckles replied.

Amy rolled her eyes and they left the park. They went back to their home in Chicago and tried to figure a way back to Utah. At least their house was still the same.

This chapter was probably my worst one yet. I will make chapter 9 more funny if I ever get through this writer's block.
