Oh god. He's out again, and I don't know what to do.
He just started coughing and fell over.
Call his name. There is no response.
Please wake up. Please remember.
Remember, and don't forget me again. I couldn't handle that.
My best friend is gone. What that monster did to him is beyond me, but that isn't Sonic anymore. He didn't even recognize me. He doesn't even know who he is. Where we are. No idea what's happened, or what is going on.
He's lost. Even more lost than I.

Knothole, it was at Knothole and this wasn't...
My head hurts. It's hard to think.
Last thing that comes to mind;
