Amy sigh as the group walked down the concrete path towards their beach houses. She was able to apologize to the manager and rent out two beach houses for the two weeks they'll be staying.

She was pretty pissed off at what happened. Sonic yelling and attacking at Rose, Jewel's attitude and most importantly; Cream's car crash. Hell, she has to ask the rabbit what the heck happened to her and if the rumors were true about her being in street racing.

However, Amy need to focus on the next part of the vacation.

"Okay everyone, I decided to split the group into two. I made a list of who's in which group and what beach house they'll be in.", the pink hedgehog said as she gave everyone a piece of paper.

House 308

Sonic

Knuckles

Amy

Cream

Roxie

Sage

House 408

Tangle

Jewel

Whisper

Lanolin

Rose

Rouge

Yu and Tock noticed they wasn't on the list. Amy caught wind of this and explained; "You'll be with the people who brought you here." "A.k.a, You'll be with me sport.", Rose said as rub the back of Tock head; referring to him. Both sigh in relief; Tock due to wanting to be with his mother and Yu wanting to be away from Knuckles.

However, Not everyone was happy about the split group. Sonic was annoyed that Sage and Amy was in his group and Jewel was extremely angry due to being in Rouge's group.

"Okay, after we get settled in, meet up at house 308 at 7pm for more detail about the rules and secluding of the activities.", Amy said as they begin to separate from each other into their respective houses.

Everyone was impressed at the design of the house. It was pretty high up, with the added bonus of a second floor.

Amy sigh as she decided to take nap upstairs, putting Knuckles in charge as she trusted him.

"I can't believe it... Tails is trans now... what went wrong...", Sonic said depressingly. Knuckles roll his eyes and said, "You need to stop. What you did was unexcusable. She's going through alot and you know it."

"It's 'he'... damnit..", Sonic said annoying. Sage look at the two man talking and whisper to Roxie, "Why is he upset? I looked into it and it seems like changing genders isn't wrong." Roxie quickly texted at Sage; 'It's complicated... Sonic is possibly Homophobic and/or Transphobic. However, that's just a guess on my end. As for why, I'm not sure.' Sage nodded as she understood and two watched the two talk for awhile.

Meanwhile, Cream was outside smoking as her mind was stuck on something she was keeping for herself. She had a private reason why she came to the union, but it wasn't for fun. 'Once I complete the trade, I can leave this shit party. I just hope Amy forgive me.'

"I CAN'T BELIEVE HIM!! THE NERVE OF THAT GUY!!", Tangle shouted as kicked down a chair. They just got into their beach house, which exactly like the other one except for a few changes.

Everyone in this group was pretty burned out and upset at Sonic and Cream. Specially Tangle who was shocked to see Sonic act like that.

"Tangle! Tock just calmed down.", Jewel snapped. Tangle sigh and said, "It's okay Jewel, he knows I'm not mad at him."

"Uhh... no he doesn't...", Rose said nervously. Tangle sigh and walked up towards Tock. The mouse panicked and ran upstairs. "Hey! I'm not going to hurt you...", the lemur called out.

Rose sigh and walked up after him. Tangle scratch the back of her head; "What's up with that boy?" "Judging by the way he's acting, he could have a mental disability.", Yu explain as he sat down.

"You're right, he does.", Rose said as she carried the young mouse in her arms down the stairs. The fox sat the mouse down infront of the TV that was in the room and looked at the motel channel guide. She quickly turned it on and turned it to cartoon channel.

Tock quickly went calm completely down and was now completely glued to the TV. Everyone else was surprised by this as Tock was now in his own comfort zone.

"You see... he has Autism and he functions differently than most kids. He's a good kid, just has his own tempo that he follows. I'm probably the only one who can easily get him calm.", Rose said as she sat near him on the couch in the room.

"You... MUST BE JOKING! Not only do we have to deal with Amy's bizarre rules, Sonic's B.S. and God knows what Cream is about; but also a mental challenge child as well?" Jewel complain as she sat down at a table.

"Unfortunately yes... might have to get used to it. Besides, Rose got it under control.", Whisper said, putting the food they bought for the trip in the fridge. Rouge sat next to Rose on the couch and said, "Well... Like I said, I respect your choice Rose. I think you look awesome as a woman." Rouge teasingly groped Rose big breasts and the vixen bit her lip; trying not to moan out infront of her son.

The bat laugh and said, "God you're adorable. I can't wait to shop with you on this trip." "Thanks", Rose said nervously as she kept an eye on Tock. Yu tap on Rouge shoulder and the two went upstairs for quick chat.

"Okay... this is completely weird.. What's up with Rose and Jewel?", Yu asked after he closed the door of one of the bedroom they were in. Rouge sigh and said, "Don't worry, I'm just flirting with Rose. She used to be a boy I would often 'play' with. As for Jewel... let's just say I have an accident with her last year that she haven't forgiven me yet."

"Oh... well as long we be careful... these old friends of yours are... something...", Yu said nervously. Rouge nodded; "Tell me about it. They're just crazy now and I don't know what happened to them."

As soon as 408 group finally got done with their unpacking, it was already 7pm. Everyone was walking out of the door when they noticed Rose was still sitting down on the couch. Tock hasn't moved a muscle from the TV since it was turned on.

"Hey, are you joining?", Yu asked Rose. Rose nodded and said, "Yes and No. I will be joining you, but through phone. I can't leave Tock alone." Yu nodded and walked outside. Rose sigh as Tock watch the TV.

"Mommy... do they hate me?"

Rose froze as Tock actually spoke for the first time since they got here. Rose sigh as sat behind him; "No sweetheart. They're just trying to get used to you. You didn't do nothing wrong at all. I'm sorry it was a bad day for you." Tock snuggle back against his mother; "I love you mommy."

Rose smile as Tock sat with her for awhile until her phone rang. "Okay sweetheart, I'm going outside for now, but I'll be back in soon. I'll be on the porch if you need me okay?" Tock nodded and Rose walked out on the porch.

"Okay, since everyone is here, I want to thank you all for coming... I know this we had a bad start but we can make this work.", Amy started as the group sat down.

"As you might've guess, I did this because I wanted to continue are connections with each other. So, I decided to held this union during the anniversary of Dr. Eggman's... shit.." Amy froze as Sage was in the room and that was her father. Sage nodded and said, "It's okay Amy. My father wasn't really a great person for the most part."

"Yeah... sorry.. Anyways, I need to set some ground rules for all of us to follow. The first one is that while I wouldn't stop you from doing mostly your own thing, everyone must join the group activities. Also, each day's activity will be chosen by each person. Here's a list of when a person's activity is on."

Any gave everyone a piece of paper with the list on it:

1. N/A (Arrival)

2. Knuckles

3. Tangle

4. Cream

5. Jewel

6. Roxie

7. Whisper

8. Sonic

9. Lanolin

10. Sage

11. Rose

12. Amy

13. Everyone

14. N/A (Leaving)

"Starting tomorrow, I want all of you to think of what we can do on your day. It has to be an hour long and involves everyone. Now with that being said, I want you all to not do anything stupid. Keep personal affections to yourself and only in the bedroom okay? Also no crazy ideas alright. Now, anything else that you all would like to add?"

'I have a personal request.'

Amy and the others turn towards a computer that Roxie had on. It was Rose speaking through video chat; 'I would ask for some help with keeping Tock happy so he could enjoy this vacation.'

Amy nodded and said, "Sure, specially since we don't know how to handle him."

Like Amy, Rose quickly show off list of important information about Tock.

1. Keep Tock close to Rose at all times unless you have her permission.

2. Allow Tock to bring his hand-held LITE with him so he doesn't get bored or needs to calm down alongside his headphones.

3. Allow Tock to watch TV unless Rose said otherwise.

4. No loud sounds and/or yelling around him.

5. Check on him from time to time to see if he's alright.

Signs of him in Discomfort:

Covering his ears

Moaning in discomfort

Swinging his arms

Selective Mutism

6. Tock would sometimes wrapped himself in bedsheets and blankets. Be careful when you approach him in this state. If needed help, asked Rose.

7. If there's a tension and/or something extreme going on, have Tock avoid it.

8. Don't give him anything that with make him hyper around 7pm.

Amy wrote down the special rules involving Tock and said, "Thank you Rose. This will help alot. Anyone else?"

Rouge began to speak, "So when you mean keep it the bedroom, you mean only have sex in the bedroom?" Amy roll her eyes and said, "I'll somewhat give a past on sexual stuff outside of the motel as long it doesn't cause trouble." Rouge smirk as gave Yu a flirty look, causing him to blush. Yep, she going to abuse that privilege.

"Anyone else?"

Everyone agree with what was said and Amy nodded; "Great, everyone can return to your house. I'm gonna quickly talk to Knuckles about what his wants to do for tomorrow."

Group 408 return to the house to see Tock still watching TV. Tangle sigh and said, "What a day. This is probably going to be an insane vacation." She quickly grabbed the remote of the TV and turned it off.

Tock was in shock and turned round with confusion in his eyes. "TANGLE! THE FUCK!?", Rouge snapped. Tangle was confused and asked, "What? It's time for bed.." "Did you just forget about the rules involving Tock? We can't mess with the TV when Tock is watching unless Rose says so.", Whisper explained, which made Tangle feel guilty. "Shoot... sorry Tock.."

"It's alright Tangle. It is bedtime for him.", Rose said as she walk in; hearing what just happened outside. She gently picked up Tock in her arms and said, "It's okay baby, you have plenty time to do that later. Time for you to sleep now." Tock snuggle up to his mother and the two went upstairs.

Tangle sigh and said, "Well, that settle it... I'm going to make goal of being friends with Tock." Jewel eyes wided; "That's... an interesting goal. Why?" "Why not? He's going to need it damn it and besides, we need to show him we're not here to hurt him right?"

Jewel nodded as everyone began to get ready for bed. It was a busy day today and they all needed to rest up for tomorrow.
