Sonic: OH MY GOSH SHUT UP AND GET ON WITH IT YOU LEFT US ON A CLIFFHANGER IS AMY DEAD OR NOT?!

CUPCAKE CHOP!

Sonic:*dies*

Oh god oh god someone call an ambulance!

"AMY! AMY?!" Sonic screamed as he ran across the remains of the Town Square. Maria jumped off of the roof of the building she was deposited on, and landed next to Sonic. "What have you done" she growled her kind blue eyes now two dark anger filled orbs. "I'm sorry Maria, I'll answer to what I've done later, can we please just find-"Sonic was cut off by the ground shaking beneath him.

"Another explosion?" Sonic thought. The ground began to give away beneath them, "Come on let's go!" Sonic said grabbing Maria, and running ahead trying to escape the fire lapping at their heels. "Sonic move!" Maria said pushing him to the left as a car was blown thirty feet in the air, almost taking Sonic with it. "It must be a chain bomb!" Maria yelled over the sound of falling debris "It's just going to keep blowing up until it runs out of gas!" Just as Maria said this another bone shattering explosion shook the ground this time beneath the building that Cream and Knuckles were fighting off the remains of Eggman's robot army in.

When the explosion hit, the floor beneath Cream gave away causing her to fall 3 stories, and land hard on her shoulder. "CREAM!" Knuckles bellowed, but the force of the detonation caused him to crash through the wall that led into the next room. "We are going to die here" Cream whispered before the darkness overtook her and she passed out.

Being crushed by a car really isn't as bad as it sounds. Amy thought that she was a goner as she watched the car hurtle back down to earth with its intentions set on crushing her like a bug. Yet somehow she was still alive, when the car landed on her it landed right side up. Her face was centimeters away from the bottom parts of the car, making it so that unfortunately she was forced to breath in the smoke that protruded from the singed vehicle. Was it painful? Yes very, the tire decided to land on her leg. Was she still alive, and thanking her lucky stars? Hell yeah. She was actually pretty happy until she realized that she couldn't breathe.

"Maria!" Shadow called as he ran through the demolished streets of The Square. He needed to find her, if she had just stayed put, and listened to him this one time he probably wouldn't be having a heart attack right now. Rogue had left to find Knuckles, so Shadow decided to check and make sure that Maria was ok, and was she were he put her and told her NOT TO MOVE of course not. Another detonation tore Shadow from his thoughts and he watched a car fly about thirty feet in the air. "I don't want to be where that thing lands." Shadow thought, and then raced off screaming Maria's name once more.

Maria and Sonic ran through the smoking remains of the Town Square avoiding explosion after explosion. "Sonic we need to find Amy, now, this place gets more and more dangerous by the second, I really don't think that that we'll be able to hold out much longer!" Maria screamed as she dodged a stray piece of building. Then Sonic saw something on the ground that nearly caused him to become sick, a blue bracelet laid at his feet, all of the beads once again detached, and scattered in different places. Sonic swallowed hard "She's close" Sonic choked out. When Maria didn't answer he realized that she was no longer standing next to him, but instead running towards the car that had tried to kill him earlier.

Rogue was really getting sick of robots. She thought that they had all been defeated right before the bomb detonated, but of course there were still some survivors. It wasn't like killing them was hard it was just starting to get annoying, especially with an explosion happening every ten seconds. She decided that being outside would probably get her killed, so she took refuge inside a building, and of course what was in the building? More god damn robots. Rogue took her gun out of its holster on her leg, and began shooting down robot after robot, never missing a shot. As soon as Rogue was sure she was about to win another explosion shook the ground causing her to be thrown into the doorframe. As if that wasn't bad enough Cream fell out of the sky, no literally she fell out of the sky and landed right across the room. Cream said something that Rogue couldn't make out and then flopped lifelessly to the ground. "Cream!" Rogue shouted and then ran to the small rabbit. While Rogue held her she felt for a pulse and then sighed with relief "Thank goodness, you're ok." Just as Rogue said this she heard someone move above her, and without hesitation she shot.

"Maria what are you do-?" then he saw what she saw, a pink arm sticking out from under the car. "It's crushing her" Sonic thought, absolutely mortified. He ran over to the car and helped Maria lift it off of Amy. She looked dead, there was no other way to put it, her eyes were halfway open, and her mouth was parted slightly. There was blood everywhere, and most of her limbs were bent in horrid positions that made Maria become sick. Sonic knelt down and put is ear on her chest…nothing. "Amy come on I just got back, I haven't gotten the chance to make things right! YOU ARE NOT DYING ON ME!" Sonic screamed as he started to press on her chest hoping to breathe some life back into her. After ten agonizing minutes of pumping and breathing, and pumping, and breathing, she coughed causing blood to protrude from her mouth. Maria collected herself, ran over, and kneeled down in front of Amy "She needs medical attention now or we'll lose her again, we can't waste any more time, you need to get back to Tail's place I'll find the others." "Maria" Sonic began "Go now!" She bellowed.

As soon as Tails saw Sonic break the sound barrier he knew that he had found Amy, and he knew that she was in bad shape. Tails decided that there was no time like the present to test his new teleportation device, as he knew that all of his friends were going to need medical attention immediately. Tails pressed a button on his watch, and felt his body splice into millions of tiny pieces, when he opened his eyes he was standing in his lab. Despite how painful the transmission was, he was happy that he was alive, and that the device worked. Right when Tails stepped off of the platform he heard his front door burst open, when he ran into the common area he was shocked by how horrible Sonic and Amy looked, they both were like walking corpses. "Please" Sonic wheezed as if just breathing were a challenge. "Fix her" and with that Sonic's eyes rolled back into his head, Tails had just enough time to take Amy from his arms before Sonic fell to the ground with a sickening thud.

Everything was blurry, all of the fire and debris were starting to warp together, her legs were beginning to feel heavy, and her throat began to tighten. She collapsed to her knees wheezing, her lungs screamed for air instead of soot. Her blue eyes burned as the ashes entered them. "So this is what hell is like" Maria thought with a mirthless chuckle. Suddenly a black blur flashed in front of her and she felt herself moving, then she was breathing in soot covered fur as someone shielded her from the explosion that would not have left behind a pretty corpse. "Shadow" she whispered. "All you had to do was stay put, just stay on top of that building was that really too much for me to ask?" Shadow chuckled. Maria nodded slowly causing Shadow to laugh, she didn't know if she was crazy, grateful to be alive, or happy to be in his arms, but she laughed to. As the tears flowed down her face, she laughed.

Being shot is not fun, being shot by your own girlfriend is even less fun. When Knuckles saw Cream fall through the floor he felt helpless because he knew that he could do nothing to help her, as he himself was busy crashing through a wall. As soon as he hit the ground despite feeling something snap, he jumped right back up and ran as quickly as he could in his current state to the hole that Cream fell down. As soon as he looked down the hole he could clearly see Rogue holding the small rabbit, and pointing a gun at-oh-oh God. The bullet grazed the side of Knuckles head, if he had moved a millisecond later it would have been a clean headshot. He had to admit it was an amazing shot, he didn't expect anything less from Rogue, what a lucky guy he was. Knuckles then decided to focus on the matter at hand he had just been shot, Cream was unconscious, how were they going to get home alive? Knuckles thoughts were interrupted Rogue flying out of the hole in the floor peering around the room her eyes radiating danger until they landed on him, and her face changed to an expression of pure joy. "Knuckles!" she shouted while flying to hug him before she realized that he was what she shot at. "Oh my God" she said bringing her hands to her mouth "Please tell me I actually missed this time." "Sort of." Knuckles replied" you clipped me I'll be fine, right now we need to focus on getting out of here." "Cream is alive but she needs medical attention immediately, I don't know if she'll make the journey." Suddenly they heard a tap on what remained of the window. A very banged up Charmy gave them a half smile "I think I can help with that."

Tails was terrified, if he made one wrong move he could end his friend's lives, he had never treated two people at the same time before, but they both needed immediate medical attention. Sonic was stable, and Tails was sure that he would live, Amy on the other hand had so much stuff wrong with her that he didn't know where to start. This was easily the most stressful surgery that Tails had ever performed she flat lined twice ,and there was so much blood he wondered how she hadn't bled out yet. He finally stopped the internal bleeding, and set her leg, but she was losing far too much blood, thankfully Rogue's blood type was compatible so that he was able to perform a transfusion. He gave himself a mental pat on the back for making everyone donate blood just in case.

The darkness was terrifying, she was just hanging there, not floating not standing just hanging in the darkness. She knew that if whatever was holding her up let go that the darkness would claim her forever. Whatever was holding onto her wouldn't stop screaming it was kind of annoying actually. It kept saying things like "Don't you die on me Rose!" "Please open your eyes!" "I'm so sorry I'm so so sorry!" Every ounce of her wanted to open her eyes but she couldn't feel them, she couldn't feel anything, just the sensation that she was hanging and someone was holding her up. Then it happened she heard a soft voice whisper "fix her" and she fell. Falling was even more terrifying then hanging, because at least she knew there was someone with her while she was hanging, now she felt so alone and scared if she knew how to cry she would. Then everything abruptly stopped she felt someone cup her cheek, and that gave her such a surge of energy she felt her heart burst in her chest. She felt so much pain all over, so this is what dying feels like…

She won't open her eyes, it's been a week and she still won't open her eyes. No one talked about how that night was his fault, or how close they all came to dying. Instead everyone focused on healing mentally, and physically, they lost communication with the non-fighters, so all they could really do was pray that Eggman didn't find them. Maria refused to look at him, he didn't blame her he just got back and he already tried to kill her closest friend he'd hate himself to. Tails kept insisting that it wasn't anyone's fault but Eggman's, and he partially blamed himself. He said that he should have known that the bomb was so close to detonating, he said that there was no way Amy would have been able to diffuse the device in twenty seconds, and that she would've died if Sonic hadn't gone after her. Tail's words went in one ear and out of the other, Sonic knew that this was his fault, and he was going to do all that he could to make it right. Sonic visited her bedside every night since he couldn't take visiting with everyone else, the guilt would consume him. He sat by her in silence mentally torturing himself for what he did to her, he was supposed to protect, not harm. "I'm so sorry Amy, I'm never going to let anything hurt you I promise" he whispered bowing his head while cupping her cheek. When he lifted his head he was surprised to see two green emerald eyes staring back into his.

I ended on a happy cliffhanger this time! This chapter was shorter than the last one simply because I liked where it ended ^_^
