Love Stricken

Chapter 1: The Game

"So bored..." sighed Sonic as he lay upside-down on the sofa flicking through the TV channels.

"We need to think of something to do." said Amy, who, after defeating Eggman was now living with Sonic. "I could call everyone to come over and play..."

Amy was interrupted by Sonic as he jumped of the couch. "Yeah, that's perfect! Is Knucklehead living with Rouge now?"

"I'm pretty sure they built a house on Angel Island." said Amy as she flipped through the phone book in the kitchen.

"Hey does Tails still live with Cream?" asked Amy.

"I'm not sure, but call them anyway. Amy, you should try to hook him up with-" Sonic was cut off when Amy ran upstairs to use the phone. "-someone." finished Sonic, knowing she didn't hear.

About thirty minutes later, Sonic, Amy, Tails, Cream, Shadow, Knuckles, Rouge, Vector, Espio, and Charmy were gathered outside in front of Sonic and Amy's house.

"And we're here because..." said Shadow sarcastically.

"Because," said Amy mockingly, "me and Sonic thought it would be fun to play a game and then we could go out to eat."

"Sounds good to me!" said Cream.

"Okay," said Amy, "first we have to pick captains. Cheese, you'll be the judge and set up the games and everything, okay?"

"Chao!" replied the happy young chao, and fluttered over to a small table.

"Chao, chao" said Cheese as he pointed to Tails and Shadow.

"NeatI'macaptain!" slurred Tails as he ran to one side of the table.

" Oh, boy." said Shadow unimpressed as he walked to the other side.

"Okay, okay. I pick first." said Tails. "I'll choose, umm, Sonic!"

"Fine with me!" said Shadow. "I'll pick Espio!"

"Amy!"

"Knuckles!"

"Charmy!"

"Rouge!"

"Vector!"

"Cream."

Tails and Shadow were racing to pick.

"Okay here's the thing." said Amy. "Someone-besides the captain- on each team will call a friend to be co- captain, but the captain can't know who it is until their here, okay everybody?"

Many "Sure's" and "Whatever's" came out of the small crowd.

Tails' team ( Sonic, Amy, Charmy, Vector) were all huddled up discussing who to call, when Amy shouted "O-O-O-O-OH! Leave this- to me."

Everything was silent, and all you could hear was the beeping of Amy dialing someone's number on her pink cell phone.

See, reader, this is all part of Amy's secret plan to hook Tails up with someone. Because, way back when in the story, she did hear Sonic say Tails needs to get to know someone, or something like that. MWAHAHAHAH!
