"Sonic get up". "Whaa...AHHHHH!" (THUD) Sonic was woke up by Shadow pushing him out of the bed. "Whaa...Shadow? What the hell was that for"? Shadow glared "Its six am, time to get up". SOnic glanced at the clock, it did say six. "I usually dont get up till eight". Sonic stood up, shaking from being dazed for Shadow's rude awakening and him not having enough sleep. "hmpf Well, go to bed sooner". Sonic gave him a ugly look, then turned around to go to the shower. "What are you in a hurry for anyway". Shadow started to walk downstairs. "Well, if you have anything worth showing me around this place, we might as well get to it". After Sonic got his shower and they got Knuckles and Tails, they walked into town. "Well, here we are, Station square, this place has it all, well, I mean if you need to buy anything". Tails said as they proceeded through the street. "So, whadda ya wanna do"? Knuckles said. "Well, I figure we go to the beach". Tails said. "And hw do you figure that Tails". "SOOOOOOOOOOOONIC"! At that moment, Sonic's heart fell into a hole so deep, that if all the oceans water was inside it, it would only be half full. "SONIC I MISSED YOU"! "Hi...Amy...". Sonic said as he tryed to squirm free from her grasp. Amy looked to her side to find Knuckles and Tails, but then she noticed Shadow. "Oh, I didnt see you there Shadow...long time no see...". Sonic used that moment to get out of her death grip hug. "Hi". Shadow replyed fairly dry. "Well, I was gonna ask sonic to go to the beach, but you guys are probibly busy so...". "No, that would be ok, I guess". Shadow said. That left pretty much everyone stunned.
Are you serious? Sonic thought as he scratched his head. "I vote we go". Knuckles said. He earned a elbow from Sonic, and he knew why, slighty smirking. "Lets go then". Tails said. They spent about an hour or so hangging around the pier. As you would expect, Amy, Knuckles and Tails all went swimming, leaving Sonic to sit on the pier. "Hey Sonic, maybe you should learn to swim, that way you could have fun like the rest of us, I could teach you"! Amy said as she was doing a backstroke. Shadow came back to the dock and sat there across from Sonic. "Why dont you hop in with us Shadow"? Knuckles said trying to get a little bit of normalness out of him, if thats a word. "I bet he cant". Said Sonic, trying to heckle him. "Well, if you must see for yourself". Shadow said as he stood up. He hopped in splashing Sonic. "Well, that does it"! Sonic was out to prove that he could do it. "Sonic, maybe you should be careful...". Amy said slightly worried. Sonic jumpped in. After about five seconds or so he was sinking. "Oh cmon now". Knuckles said pulling him to the top. Sonic was coughing up more water then he was sure he could. "Thanks Knuckles...".SOnic started hacking up water again. "SONIC! Dont you ever scare me like that again". Amy said nearly having a heart attack. "What were you thinking"? Tails said. Sonic pretty much passed out. After a short trip to the hospital, everything turned out to be ok. "well, its seven thirty, What do you guys want to do"? Knuckles said. "Please nothing involving water...". Sonic said, still woozy from the incident. "Hey it looks like that new carnival is here. Lets go there"! Amy said. After walking around for a while the stummbled upon a gypsy fortune teller. "OOOOOOOOO. That loks fun! lets go in"! They all walked in "Anyone home"? Sonic said as he walked in.
A mysterious voice spoke. "Welcome to my home, young ones". Knuckles laughed as he said "You live here? Well at least you bill cant be too high." Thats got a laugh out of everyone, except Shadow. "Oh cmon Shadow, lighten up and laugh with us". "Hmpf". Was all Knuckles got in reply. "Do you seek to see the future"? the mysterious voice continued. "Oh this is a load of...". "Sonic"! Amy said cutting him off. "I would have to agree Amy, this looks pretty , well, fake". Tails said examing the room for a P.A system or somekind of walkie talkie. "Or have you come seeking the sacred Rings Of Everlasting Friendship"? Everyone except Amy and Shadow laughed. "Oh man that even sounds lame"! Knuckles said. To which Sonic replied "Oh and let me guess, you also want to know if we have the 'requirements' to reach into our walets and give you oh say...fifty a piece for them"? At this point, Sonic and Knuckles were on the ground laughing as if they were high on something dangerous. "It wasnt that funny...". Shadow said. "Yea Sonic, Its not nice"! Amy said scolding him. "Oh cmon Amy, even you can see through this scam"? Knuckles said. "I mean you cant seriously belive this load of bull". Sonic said getting up from the ground. Just then the voice said. "There is no fee, but you must pass the test, for if you dont, then the magic effects will be reversed into a cruse". They all grabbed one that matched the color of there quills. "Okay lady, whats the catch"? Knuckles said rather bluntly. "Yea and how about making yourself see-able".Sonic jeered The voice spoke. "Ahhh yea I see you all have the rings on. First, how many of you are in this room"? "There are five of us". Tails said. "Then each of you must complete one test to prove yourselves worthy".
"Test number one. The test of wisdom. I sense that one of you in this room has a high I.Q". Now Sonic and Knuckles werent laughing. "How'd she know that"? Sonic and Knuckles said at the same time. "Tell me, who here belives they have the wisdom to past this test"? Tails spoke up. "I...I belive I have what it takes". There was a erire silence, then "Ahh, verywell, young fox, tell me, what is the only way to add eleven and two and get one"? Tails chuckled, "Thats a old mind trick, the only way to do that is on a clock, eleven o clock plus two hours is one o clock". There was another silence and once again, "Yes, you are correct. The next test is the test foresight. This will require someone with a detectives mind, I sense there are three of you with this attribute, who shall step forward"? Sonic looked at Shadow and then at Knuckles. "Ok I guess ill do it". Said Knuckles as he stepped forward. "Very well, To pass this test you must tell me what is next to come following the set sequence". "This is sounding more and more like a really bad stupidity test...". muttered Sonic. "There is a murder, There are 3 suspects, one of them is guilty, one knows who is guilty and the other was a innocent bistander. The body is found in the basement, the first person claimed he was upstairs when he heard screaming, he came down to find the corpse, the second person claimed he was in the shower when the first person knocked on the door to tell him what happened, to which the first person supports, the third person claims he was doing the laundry when he saw the two men running down the stairs. The crime scene is located in the middle of each of these rooms, however is on the last floor while the laundry room is one level above the bathroom, who commited the murder"? Knuckles thought on it a minute then found out the answer. "It was the second person who did it. If the second guy was in the shower, he would have been washing blood off, also, he was by himself based on the fact that iff it were true, the first man and the second guy would have been on the same floor the whole time". the mysterious voice repsonded "Very good, you have passed". Everyone was slack-jawwed. "What? Im not really that dumb".
"the next test is the test kindness". Before the voice could fininsh Amy had already volenteered. "You must chose between you gold necklace, and a staving homeless man". Sonic shouted "AH-HA! I knew it! This is a scam to get your amulet for quick cash"! Amy slapped him. "How dare you say that Sonic"!? Amy placed the amulet on the table and poof, it was gone. "You have passed the test of kindness". Amy was happy, Sonic scoffed at that, as he was sure it was a scam. "The next test is the test of Trust and Friendship, will the final two step forward". Shadow and Sonic approched the table. "You must prove that you two can trust eachother enough to pass the final test". Sonic chuckled and Shadow gave his cold stare. "Trade rings with one another". Sonic and Shadow swapped bands. "Good, now I shall tie your fates together". Sonic had gone into hystaria. "WHAT?! ARE YOU SERIOUS!? Look lady, trade wrist bands is hardly what i would call trading fates". Just then the bands tightened. "What the...". Shadow said. "Now your fates are linked, this test however, is a permanent one, unless you can prove true friends to one another". Sonic laughed again "Oh please lady, its gonna take more then your "Magic" wrist bands to prove it to me". At that point, Sonic was proded with a dart. Shadow and Sonic both fell to the ground passed out. "What did you do to them"? "I bonded them together, in order to overcome this curse and bring them the gift that is friendship, they must leard to trust eachother, only then can they be relesed back to normal lives".
There was a flash, and then nothing. The next morning they all woke up in Tails workshop.
