Chapter 5- Hotel Horror

That night Tails and Amy were secretly trying to cook dinner when Knuckles came in, "Hey, how's the cooking going?" he asked.

Before he'd even finished the sentence Liz had run out of her room, slid down the banister and ran into the kitchen with a silly smile on her face.

"GOD DAMMIT KNUCKLES!" Amy shouted, which was rather OOC.

"Lemme help! Lemme help!" Liz shouted.

"No!" Tails said.

Liz glared at him, "Aw c'mon! You never let me help!"

"BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS BLOW UP THE STOVE!" Tails shouted.

"I won't this time!" Liz ran over to the stove.

"NOOO!" Tails shouted.

Up in a space shuttle…

Two astronauts were looking down on earth when they saw a large cloud of smoke rise from somewhere in the U.S.

"What was that?" one asked.

"Liz probably blew up the house again. Remember when the Nintendo characters were staying at her house?" the other said, "She blew up the house every other week.

On Earth…

What was the house, was now a smoldering pile of ash and debris.

Liz sat up, her hair was singed and her entire body painted black with ash.

"That… was… AWSMNESS!" Liz jumped up, "Let's do it again!"

The Sonic gang slowly managed to appear from the blackness, all of them covered in ash.

"Liz! What have you done?" Tails shouted.

"I…" Liz looked around, "Oh… that can't be good…"

Then she ran onto the sidewalk and kicked a fire hydrant which flew open and sprayed water on all of them, cleaning off the ash.

Then she picked up the hydrant and put it back on the fountain of water and screwed it in place.

Liz pulled out a cell phone and pressed a button. "Hey! We need another house… By uh… next week would be cool… great! Put it on my tab! Bye!" then she hung up.

"You have a tab with a contractor?" Amy asked.

Liz looked at Amy, "Don't you?"

Later that night…

It was getting dark and they all sat on the sidewalk, cold and hungry since Liz had blown up the house and for reasons unknown didn't feel like calling Mario for pizza.

"Okay guys," Liz said standing up, "I'm gonna call a hotel and we'll stay there for the week! But I only have enough money on my tab for four rooms."

"WHY DO YOU HAVE TABS ON EVERYTHING?" Shadow shouted.

"I thought everyone did…" Liz said, "Anyway, I'll call holiday inn, we'll have to pick names to see who we bunk with."

She pulled a blank piece of paper out of her pocket and a pencil and wrote down all their names and tore up the paper into squares.

"Okay, anybody have something we can use to hold them?" she asked.

Nobody said anything, "Alright hold on." Liz ran over to the neighbor's house and opened their garage door, ran in and ran back with a hat.

She dumped the names in and shook up the hat, then held it out to Rouge.

Rouge pulled out a square and read it, "Knuckles…!" she read in horror.

Knuckles put his arm around her, "Alright, some alone time with my girl!"

Rouge pulled away and kicked his… happy place… Knuckles fell over sideways.

"Don't you dare touch me!" she shouted.

Amy ran up to the hat and pulled out a square, she looked at it excitedly and then her smile faded, "I got Tails." she said.

"What's wrong with me?" Tails asked.

"Nothing, I just wanted my Sonikku!" Amy said hugging Sonic.

Sonic went up to the hat and pulled out another square, he looked at it and his eyes widened in horror and he sank to his knees, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he screamed.

"What's wrong did you get Shadow?" Hannah asked going over to Sonic and picking up that paper he'd dropped, her eyes widened too and she held out the paper for everyone to read, the paper read, bold and clear, "Liz"

An evil grin spread across Liz's face, She ran over to Sonic and pulled him up to his feet and put her arm around his shoulder, "Looks like we're room mates now buddy!" she said happily.

"GOD WHY ME! WHY ALWAYS ME!" Sonic screamed.

"I guess that means I have Hannah." Shadow said.

"I guess so." Hannah said.

The two of them glared at each other for a moment then turned away.

"Alright, I'll call holiday inn!" Liz pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number, "Hey guys! It's Liz, I need four rooms for a week!... uh huh… uh huh… great! We'll be there in about an hour.

Then Liz hung up, "Alright! The hotel's a long way away so I'll drive!"

"Drive what?" Tails asked, a bit afraid of the answer.

Liz smiled and ran back to the garage she had just broken into. They heard the sound of an engine starting up and a silver corvette roared out of the garage into the street, "Hop in!" Liz said smiling.

"You're not old enough to drive!" Hannah shouted.

"Oh nag, nag, nag! Is that all you do? Now get in!" Liz shouted.

Hannah, Amy, Rouge, Tails, and Knuckles managed to fit into the car comfortably but there was no room for Sonic and Shadow. "That's okay, we'll run!" Sonic said.

Then the two of them raced off.

"Say, how did you get this car to start?" Amy asked.

"I hot-wired it, alright! Let's go!" Liz roared off down the street at 100 mph!

Her passengers screaming their heads off.

When they finally reached the hotel Sonic and Shadow were waiting for them.

They all jumped out of the car screaming.

Liz jumped out too, "Alright! We're here!"

Then she ran inside and up to the counter, "Hey Greg!" she said.

"Hey Liz, here are your keys." he said handing her four room keys.

"Thanks!" she said taking them.

"How many times have you blown up that house?" Knuckles asked.

"Enough times." she said, "okay, Knux and Rouge, here's your key." Liz was about to give the key to Knuckles but then gave it to Rouge, "I don't trust you." she said to Knuckles.

Rouge ran off with Knuckles behind her shouting, "Wait! I'll get lost!"

"That's the point!" Rouge yelled back.

"Amy, here's yours and Tails' key." Liz said handing Amy a key.

The two of them walked off together.

"And here's your key…" Liz paused wondering who to give the key to, Shadow or Hannah… She finally decided that Shadow was more trustworthy than Hannah and gave him the key. The two of them stalked off together, keeping as far away from each other as they could.

Then Liz held up one last key, "And here's our key my prey- I mean, Sonic…"

Sonic gloomily followed Liz down the hall past all the doors until Liz reached their room. She slid the key into the reader and pulled it out. Then she opened the door and her smile faded. She didn't move she just stared into the room, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing…

Sonic looked into the room too and he couldn't believe it either…

There was only one bed!
