"We have to save them" said Vector to see how each of the assailants approached his victims with the intention of killing them.
"But how do we do it? They are five we are three" Charmy said.
"Do not worry about it. Now I have a plan" Espio said as he quickly whispered the plan to his two friends.
After that the chameleon became invisible and was the first to enter the alley. The crocodile and peered and the bee beckoned to the two rabbits, a blue creature and hedgehog them to stay calm, that everything was under control.
Espio the five assailants approached quietly and carefully took the smallest pockets of them who carried pistols. As I already had in his hands all the weapons became visible and stood with two of them, he threw two to Vector and Charmy to.
"Hands up" said the three friends together.
The attackers turned around and the leader of them started laughing while saying "Get out of here, that this matter is not your concern".
"I think if it is" said the crocodile with two pistols in hands.
"And they had better leave them alone they" chameleon also said his two pistols.
"Or else it will get ugly" Bee said also with his gun drawn.
"I see you brought your guns, then we" said one of the robbers.
Although Vector, Espio and Charmy waiting for them to realize that they had their weapons. They were surprised to see that drew pistols from their jackets.
"If you value their miserable lives, they will go from here or else they will have to pay for his interruption".
"We will not go until left alone" said the chameleon.
Suddenly two shots were heard; one of the assailants fell dead and another was fatally wounded. The gun of one of them fell near where were the two rabbits, blue creature and hedgehog.
"Sorry. I think overtook me" said the bee.
"No need to apologize, now we are not at a disadvantage" said the crocodile.
"Damn insect, me you pay. You'll be the first to die" the leader of the robbers said as he pointed his gun and fired.
Charmy suddenly started flying from one side to another avoiding each bullet that was in his direction.
Meanwhile, Vector and Espio were at war with the other two assailants. Both used as shields some trash that had been there. But seeing that they could not do anything from that point, the chameleon became invisible again and hid his gun behind himself. He approached one of his opponents and shot him right in the head. The crocodile seized the moment and shot the other assailant.
With four down, just missing the leader of the band and you end up with this once and for all. Vector and Espio But when they turned they saw Charmy was about to be killed since held a gun to his head.
"If you value the life of his friend will leave those weapons on the ground and they will surrender to me".
"You can not do that" said the crocodile.
"If I can, and I'll do it if you do not follow my orders".
"Okay. But do not hurt" the chameleon said.
Both dropped their weapons and threw away.
The murderer released the bee and lunged at her friends. Then he began to target them and told them "I forgot to tell you one thing. Never negotiate with a criminal, he never keep their promises. So tell him goodbye to their pathetic lives".
All three were in shock, could not believe that this would end their lives. The three closed their eyes, not wanting to see what would happen.
Three shots were heard and all was silent.
Vector, Espio and Charmy opened their eyes and realized that none of the three was wounded. Seeing forward they saw the wounded assailant of gravity, then see how fell to the ground.
Behind him was hedgehog holding a gun in his hands. She had killed him.
The crocodile, chameleon and bee came to the two rabbits, blue creature and hedgehog and quickly removed the dead.
"They're fine" he asked the chameleon.
"Yes, all are fine" said the hedgehog.
"Thanks for saving us. They're heroes" said the younger rabbit.
"Chao, Chao" said the creature blue.
"Do not mention it. It is our duty to help them" said the bee.
"How can you call?" he asked as rabbit.
"My name is Vector" said the crocodile.
"I'm Espio" said the chameleon.
"And I Charmy" said the bee.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Vanilla" said the older rabbit.
"I am Cream and this is my friend Cheese" said the younger rabbit carrying blue creature.
"And I caught my Sonia" said the hedgehog.
"Sonia?" crocodile, chameleon and bee said in unison.
"Do you know me?" said the hedgehog.
"No. It's just that his name is the same as that of someone we knew who died a week ago" Espio said.
"Oh, I see" Sonia said.
At that time the EST arrived at the scene and found the five bodies of the attackers. Seeing them they recognized. That was a band that had been sought for more than three years for committing acts of robbery, sexual abuse and murder women. By now it was offering a reward for those who captured dead or alive.
When Vector, Espio and Charmy testified at the EST station mentioned the great help they received from Sonia; received the reward for having saved the whole realm of these criminals and divided it into four parts.
When the group left the station before they parted Vector handed a paper Vanilla and said that if they had any problems call that number and they would go to help in whatever he needed.
When women were men stood watching them a little flushed. Vector saw Vanilla, Espio to Sonia, Charmy to Cream.
Suddenly the three responded and agreed that they had to go to the supermarket to find the things they had charged them, so they were running as fast as they could.
King Sonic and Tails were in a park talking in a park with Amy and Cosmo, after leaving the restaurant.
"Amy, tell us how you and Cosmo are met. We are very curious" said the fox.
"Good. As I said earlier today that was three years ago" said the pink hedgehog beginning to tell the story.
Flashback
Amy was strolling along with Rob, Mari-An and Jon. They had come because the pink hedgehog felt a little depressed that day and wanted to encourage taking a long walk.
When returning home through a forest they heard a noise behind a bush group.
Rob and Jon drew their bows and arrows as they approached the bush. Amy and Mari-An were behind them watching what we were about to do.
Suddenly there appeared a girl hair and skin shades of green, with red rosebuds on both sides of the head and blue eyes color.
The girl did not look threatening, so Rob and Jon lowered their bows and arrows.
The pink hedgehog was first approached carefully in order not to frighten her and said, "Hello. I'm Amy Rose. What's your name?".
"My name is Cosmo" said the girl with a voice very stunned.
"Where do you come from? And, what are you?" Jon asked.
"From space. I am a seedrian".
"And where are your friends?" Rob asked.
"All my clan died. We were attacked by an alien race and I was the only survivor".
"Oh, poor thing" Mari-An said as he gave a hug to comfort.
Cosmo began to mourn while being embraced, then had just remembered how her mother Hertia and his sister Galaxina had died and would really hurt the soul by the fact that she would never see them more in your life.
"It is better for us to take home. We can not leave her here alone" said the pink hedgehog.
The bluish green hedgehog and two red echidna agreed with her and they all went from there.
When they got home, the pink hedgehog was in charge of caring for the seedriana and little by little they understood.
With the passing of Amy and Cosmo days became good friends so much that they looked like sisters, always did everything together and most importantly no secrets between them.
End of Flashback
"And how was it heard the news?" asked the blue hedgehog.
"A week ago as the two watched television together with Rob, Mari-An and Jon, saw in the Channel 11 news reportage Sasha Cat about what had happened at Castle of Mobius and heard that there were people who had died there" said the seedrian.
"I saw on television that the crowd of people were gathered around the castle. There were two of you together with Knuckles, Vector and Espio It was at that moment I had the feeling that your families had been those who perished in this tragedy and as sensed what happened" said the pink hedgehog.
"Moving on, and it's getting late. You two have a place to stay?" asked the fox.
"Honestly no. I do not have" Cosmo said.
"We got the kingdom this morning and the first thing we did was to get off the monorail to go to the cemetery to be present at the funeral. But do not worry about us, we are staying in a hotel" Amy said.
"I can not allow that. You two are going to stay at home with me and Sonic" Tails said.
"Are you sure?" asked the pink hedgehog and seedrian.
"Of course I do. You agree Sonic" said the fox.
"Yes. You two are welcome" said the blue hedgehog as he raised his thumb.
"Thank you" said the two.
Amy and Cosmo gave him a hug Sonic and Tails respectively, causing both blush. Although only corresponded to embrace was the fox to seedrian.
After that the four of them left the park, as it was starting to get dark.
Rotor was in his house with Nicole. Both were working on a new invention that would be helpful for Freedom Fighters. It was a machine that would serve to rejuvenate people. Because with only three team members (Sonic, Jacques and Belle) were not sufficient to protect the entire Kingdom of Acorn. So they had thought to use that machine to rejuvenate previous team members to the group did not stay so small. It was a great job they had to do both.
"When this unit is finished, Sonic, Tails, Antoine, Bunnie and I will use it, and together we will be the same team before" Rotor said.
"Do not forget me" Nicole said.
"I could never forget you. But you do not age, no need to enter the device".
"Almost everything will be as before. Only Sally lacking among us".
"Do not mention that just thinking about what happened to her makes me depressed a bit" said Rotor tears from her eyes with a handkerchief dried.
"Okay. Better keep working" Nicole said as she put one hand on his friend's shoulder.
They sat at a table on which were the plans and began to examine them to see what was next on what they had to work.
