Chapter 16: South America II

Our heroes are still on the road, and it's 8:55 pm. The stars are out, and they look beautiful in the eyes of our heroes.

"Wow. I wish there were shooting stars out; tonight," said Cream.

"We're here," said Tails, pulling up to the driveway.

"Why is it called Colca Canyon," said Sonic.

"It's filled with Coca-Cola," said Knuckles, laughing.

"That's funny, Knux," said Tikal, laughing along.

"No. It's named after its river, Colca River," said Amy, reading the guidebook.

"Where's the battery," said Cream.

"At Mirador Cruz del Condor," said Tails.

"What if one of us passed out?"

"Then one of us will carry the person."

"Alright, let's find this battery before we get knocked out," said Sonic, preparing himself to run.

Our heroes counties walking until they finally reached their destination.

"Finally, we made it. Now we could…," said Cream until she falls asleep and lands on her back.

"I got her," said Tails, putting the sleeping bunny in his arms.

"Let's just get this over with before we all passed out," said Sonic, going to the cross and detached a 4-ft tall battery in a 4-ft plug.

"Why put a battery on a grave, Eggman? Just why?"

When Sonic leaves the grave with the battery and plug, a big shadow-like figure emerges behind the cross and tries to grab Sonic. Amy screamed with panic and threw her hammer at the shadow. When it hit the shadow, he falls. When the heroes checked on it, it was revealed to be Zomom.

"Thanks, Ames," said Sonic.

"No problem."

"Now, let's find a hotel here and find Cream a bed. Because I'm tired of carrying her," said Tails, almost struggling to hold her.

At Andes Colca Hostel, Cream is in bed, still sleeping with Cheese on her head. At the same time, Tikal and Amy talk to each other.

"She sure is like an angel when she sleeps," said Tikal.

"I know. Did you get some souvenirs from Bolivia and Peru?"

"Yes, I did. A Bolivian Aguayo and a Peruvian carved gourd. This collecting and talking are getting me tired. Let's hit the sack, girlfriend."

"You're right. I need sleep to refuel my adventuring tanks."

Tails do some research on the files with the boys while Sonic eats a chilidog and watches Knuckles chugs up; a bottle of coca-cola.

"Careful, Knux. We don't want any explosions in here," said Sonic, finishing his chilidog.

"I'll be fine. Where's our next destination?"

"Torres del Paine and the Atacama Desert in Chile," said Tails.

"Does Chile make the best chilidogs," said Sonic.

"Is that supposed to be a joke?"

"Well, no and yes."

"We better get some sleep, guys," said Knuckles, grabbing his stomach.

"Dude, if you're going to do a number 2, do it in the restroom," said Tails.

When Knuckles goes into the restroom, Sonic said, "I try to warn him."

Morning is here, and our heroes are on the plane, preparing to take off.

"Good thing, it's only going to take us 3 hours and 30 minutes to get there," said Tails, turning the engine on.

When they fly away, Amy said, "I'm just curious, but where's the giant Zeti?"

"You mean Zomom," said Sonic.

"That's right."

Zomom is still knocked out from his beat down.

When he finally gets up, he said, "how long have I been here?"

When he saw the heroes flying in the sky, he said, "that pink brat knocked me out with her hammer. And they're heading to Chile. Great, now I'm hungry again."
