Credit to GothNebula and buildergarfield because they wrote the first two chapters of "The Replacement" so I also figured I'd continue it! I also added a little to the flashback.

Flashback to Sonic Boom: The Replacement:

All of Team Sonic's wounds healed. "Thanks for taking our place." Team Sonic smiled.

"Your welcome, but don't let Eggman harm you." Shadow and his crew respond.

Shadow led his team off to new adventures. The five friends grinned at each other, glad that they were all ok. After this they could resume their normal lives, waking up, meeting up, fighting Eggman, all on repeat.

For now...

"Man, that chilli dog really filled me up." Sonic groaned, sinking back in his seat.

"Sonic, you ate five of them." Amy frowned.

"Figures." The cobalt hedgehog replied, a goofy grin on his face.

"So, do you guys want to hit the beach this afternoon for some netball?" Amy asked, prodding her salad. When she got no answer, she cleared her throat, but the only reply she got was Sticks, who was wailing about playing netball at one in the afternoon attracts aliens.

"Woah, that's so cool!" Tails exclaimed while Knuckles whooped from both of them watching a video.

"Guys, I asked a question." Amy huffed, but Sonic had started watching too and he too was exclaiming in awe.

"This girl is crazy!" He grinned, his face alight.

"What are you even watching?" Amy asked from the other side of the table.

"There was this really popular dance competition two towns away, and this girl entered, and her routine is amazing! I've never seen anything like it!" Tails replied, his eyes unable to tear from the screen.

"You won't be able to see it after I'm done with you." A voice growled from behind, making them all turn. Knuckles winced at seeing the large shadow.

"Is it a good time to say I have to pee?"
