Chapter Four: Only Our Hope
We head back to where Cream is, and she was locked in a cell located in the area where the Scrap Brain use to be. Cream whimpered in fear. The cell was bright on one side, and dark on the other.
"Infinite, why are you doing this?!" Cream pleaded.
Infinite just laughs evilly, and floats away from her. Cream then started to cry with scared tears in her eyes.
"Cream?" a voice called.
Cream heard the voice, and turned to face where the source was coming from. She saw a pink hedgehog with jade green eyes, red shirt, blue jeans, white gloves, and red boots.
"Amy!" Cream shrieked.
Cream then runs over to Amy, and hugs her close, and Amy returns the hug.
"I am so glad to see you here!" Cream stated in relief.
"Glad you are here too!" Amy sobbed.
"No love for me also?" another voice mentioned.
Both Amy and Cream turned to face where the voice was coming from. They saw a white bat, with blue eyes, she wore a white shirt, black leather jacket, black jeans, and white boots.
"Rouge!" Amy and Cream exclaimed.
They both then rushed towards Rouge, and embraced her. Rouge returns the embrace, and then they break the embrace shortly after.
"But more importantly, what is going on here?" Rouge wondered.
"And why has Infinite captured us?" Amy stated.
"I only wish I knew. And why did this moment have to happen now of all times? The most magical moment happened to me before all this happened." Cream sadly stated.
"Magical moment?" Rouge wondered in confusion.
"What magical moment was that?" Amy asked.
"Well, Tails was with me earlier, and he was acting a lot more nervous around me than usual, and he opened up about being in love with me, and I did towards him as well. Then I was captured by Infinite." Cream explained.
"He confessed his love for you?! That isn't like Tails at all, that is something else!" Rouge thought.
"So that is why he asked me where you were!" Amy exclaimed in shock.
"I guess so." Cream stated.
"I only wish that Sonic would do the same towards me, but I feel like I am not attractive to him at all. It's like, I don't even know if he even likes me as a person at all, or even cares about me. Every time I try to win his affection, he just brushes me off like I don't exist, and runs away." Amy sadly stated.
"Amy, don't say things like that! Sonic is probably just nervous, is all." Cream told her, hopefully.
"It has been twelve years though! I thought he would have matured and gotten use to it by now, but nothing has changed since the day I met him on Little Planet." Amy stated with sorrow.
"And Shadow, I don't even know about him anymore. He does talk to me a lot now, but he was about to tell me something earlier, but that was until this happened." Rouge stated sadly.
"Well, only our hope can keep our sanity for the time being. I sure hope Tails comes to save me." Cream hoped, as a sad tear fell from her eye.
.
(Cream singing)
Please, please, forgive me
For I won't be home again
Maybe one day you'll look up
Though barely conscious, you'll say to no one
"Isn't something missing?"
.
Amy then sat on the ground, opened up a locket, and looked at a photo of Sonic that was inside of it. She sighs sadly, with also a sad tear in her eye.
.
(Amy singing)
You'll not cry in my absence, I know
You've forgot me long ago
Am I so unimportant?
Am I too insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
.
Amy closes the locket, and puts it in her pocket. Cream then made her way towards the bars, and looks through it, and looks into the horizon.
.
(Amy and Cream singing)
Although I'm the sacrifice
You'll not try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know if you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?
.
Rouge stands up, and looks at the sky. She was staring at the stars that formed into the shape of Shadow's face. Rouge sheds a sad tear in her eye.
.
(Rouge singing)
Please, please, forgive me
For I won't be home again
I know what you'd do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"
.
(Amy, Cream, and Rouge singing)
Although I'm the sacrifice
You'll not try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know if you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?
.
Amy and Rouge walk towards the bars, and also join Cream by looking into the horizon. They all hoped and preyed that they would be rescued.
.
(Amy singing)
Now if I bleed, I bleed
Knowing you won't care
(Cream singing)
Now if I sleep now and dream of you
I'll wake and you're not there
(Rouge singing)
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...?
.
Amy collapses to the ground, and cries uncontrollably. Cream and Rouge turned their heads and looked on towards Amy.
.
(Amy singing)
Although I'm the sacrifice
You'll not try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know if you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
.
Cream and Rouge drop to their knees, and cuddled Amy in comfort. They all then looked into the horizon once again, hoping once again that they would be rescued from their current position.
Will Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow be able to save them in time? Will they be able to collect all the seven Chaos Emeralds to stop Infinite? Amy, Cream and Rouge all hoped so, for the good of Mobius.
