Chapter Text
The wind whipped through Tron's hair as the Gustaff dangled from the Drache, down below the city ruin approached at a rapid pace. Already, she could see where the Servbots were aiming to land her and the two Neu-Leopolds on the Draches behind her. Of course, the Neu-Leopolds would secure the landing site along with Tron before the Draches would bring in the Diebeswagens, which, per their design, would of course tear into the ruins, stealing any items of value, refractors, jewels, gold, or anything the Servbots remotely controlling these new upgraded versions of her old Möbelwagen design found valuable as they tore into the buildings.
Sure, compared to the Möbelwagens of old, these designs were more likely to destroy items that the Bonnes could instead steal and sell, but considering the family's penchant for encountering armed diggers capable of fighting back—a certain Blue Bomber in particular—Tron figures the exchange was worth it. Though thinking of Megaman, Tron closed her eyes, allowing the warm wind to brush over her face as she imagined him, his eyes, the kind way he smiled at others, and the joy and care he seemed to express every time she survived after an intense battle between them. No, she refused to believe what others said; she knew he cared for her, and it had to be the same way she did about him. And if it took another conflict with him to prove that, then after this score, that's just what she'll do!
Once the Drache reached her drop point, Tron only waited long enough for the Servbots clinging to her Gustaff to let go before she also let go, dropping onto the empty street. Tron looked at the cold, dead city; it looked surprisingly modern, and yet besides that strange symbol, it was as lifeless, to some extent even more lifeless, than any ancient ruins she had ever entered. The streets were dark, and the shadows of the surrounding buildings and the overcast sky made every corner seem dark and foreboding. However, a little ambiance never stopped Tron before; she had taken countless legendary treasures for herself, and whatever these Chaos Emerald Refractors were, they'd just be another notch under the Bonne family's belt.
"Remember, take anything you can find of value!" Tron orders both over her headset and directly to the Servbots under her.
"Yes, Miss Tron!" Both the Servbots standing in a circle around Tron and those on the Draches controlling the Bonne's newest war machines all responded immediately.
"Also, remember to keep an eye out for any Reaverbots or cops. We don't want them getting the drop on us, and we need to make sure we have the best chance to grab everything of value. I don't want any surprises resulting in a loss of loot!" Tron then ordered. The Servbots were hard working and loyal, but often needed Tron's help keeping them on task.
Casually, Tron fired her beacon pistol into the door of a nearby building, sending her Servbots chasing after it. Of course, once inside, they knew well enough what to do and would get to ransacking the place, looking for anything of value to take. Meanwhile, Tron moved her Gustaff to another building, where, with a casual backhand from her machine, she knocked the doors off their hinges and created an opening that she piloted the Gustaff through. She might as well snatch what she could while waiting for the Draches to return with more machines.
Tron soon froze as she was met with an odd sight inside the building she had entered. She had expected some long-forgotten department store, maybe some office building, or one of the more incomprehensible designs of the ancients serving some unknown purpose. Instead, the room was filled with various computers, all being stationed by robots that seemed to mimic humanoid forms, but we're very top heavy, with heavy armor at most points, though stripped from the joints, and besides the computers, there seemed to be countless maintenance stations in the room and what looked like an oversized trash shoot next to an elevator in the center of the room.
Besides these main machines, there also seemed to be what looked like a group of ladybug machines with small bladed arms and a central tire in their bodies, and a large group of machines that had wasp-like bodies. Of course, what had given Tron pause was neither the presence of the machines nor their numbers, but rather the odd appearances and very notable lack of the iconic Reaverbots eye. Which suggested that these machines were not Reaverbots and that this was not an ancient ruins, and at the same time she then had to wonder who could afford to have a near-empty city full of robots, particularly ones with such odd designs.
Then both sides burst into action, but it was no question that Tron was quicker on the draw. While the orange robots and their insect-like counterparts were starting to move for Tron, the Gustaff's Buster Cannon was already firing while the right arm underwent a shift, changing into a launch tube from which a heavy shell was launched. The skull icon tipped round soared into the center of the room before detonating, the blast more than five times that which Tron's own personal Bazooka could have achieved.
In an instant, the vast majority of the robots Tron was faced with were destroyed. However, that still left more than forty machines to deal with. Swiftly, Tron and her Gustaff set to work, activating her back boosters. She sent the Gustaff barreling over one of the two-legged machines, its top-heavy frame toppling over easily. And as she fired her Buster Cannon, she noted that the machines were strangely vulnerable to energy attacks despite their armor. In fact, as Tron rocket boosted the Gustaff's fist into one, it seemed most of their designs were dedicated to resisting kinetic energy; certainly one of the police's pistols or machine guns would do next to nothing to these machines, but their only defense against a buster seemed to be their mass
By the time that Tron finished the last of the robots, her Servbots came rushing in shouting and in a panic, and the mechanical genius swiftly moved her Gustaff outside, where she could see the two Neu-Leopolds firing on the building that Tron had sent the Servbots into, their buster guns and cannons preventing the machines inside from coming out, though Tron could see that several were still slipping out of alternative exits. Still soon, the three Draches arrived, adding their own guns as well as three Diebeswagens to the fight.
Tron swiftly hit her headset, calling to her elder brother. "Teisel! There's robots—a lot of robots here! We might need some support!"
After a moment of relative silence, backed by the sounds of gunfire, Teisel finally responded. "We know! I tried to loot a building, only for a hoard of robots to attack us. I spotted plenty of computer parts and simple robotic parts. We might not be able to get the haul we were looking for, but we should be able to get enough parts to fix the Gesellschaft and likely still turn a bit of a profit. I'll need you to start fighting your way towards me,-"
Teisel was cut off as a servbot's voice came onto the communication line. "Master Teisel! Miss Tron! The city, it's moving!"
"What!?" Teisel and Tron simultaneously exclaimed. Both Bonne siblings were shocked, and Tron feared that the city itself was somehow becoming mobile.
"Y-yeah, the city is moving; the streets are moving, and some of the buildings are sliding around or opening up. It looks like a big castle now. And all of it is surrounding the big building in the middle." The Servbot explained.
At least the city hadn't become truly mobile, Tron didn't know how well they could escape from a city that could move. However, Teisel took the news differently. "Any power signatures?" The eldest Bonne demanded.
"Umm, yes Master Teisel. There's a huge power source in the big building in the middle of the city." Servbot number forty replied over the radio.
"Excellent! That must be where they're hiding those Chaos Emeralds! Now I won't have to hunt down that Dr. Veda, or whatever his name is, guy! New plan, everyone! Let's map out a meeting point on the way to the center of the city! We steal these Chaos Emeralds and then make our escape! Gesellschaft! Full battle mode! Prepare all missile tubes! Get the energy cannons online! Target any dense concentrations of these annoying robots and blow away any buildings blocking our path! We loaded the ship with enough firepower to level a city, and we're going to USE it!" Teisel was holding back his overly eager chuckles as he spoke.
The prospect of getting high-value refractors was already tempting enough as it was, but if they could power an entire city like this, then they were more than worth it. Even as the thought passed through Tron's head and the Servbots and machines under her began to press towards where Teisel had marked their rally point, two new massive machines joined the fray. The first looked like a massive purple version of the humanoid robots wielding a massive hammer. The second was an even larger machine, with spikes in place of hands and a cyclopean eye.
Immediately, the Neu-Leopolds and Diebeswagens turned their busters on the massive hammer-wielding robot. The Servbot's innate fear of being crushed thanks to Tron's torture chamber causing them all to immediately target the hammer-wielding robot. While the machine was resistant to the explosives the bots fired, the sheer quantity and the massed buster energy shots swiftly disabled the machine and would certainly end it in a few short moments. This allowed Tron to focus on the second, larger machine.
With the Gustaff's Buster Cannon firing on full auto, Tron charged the robot. First, the machine swung its massive first at Tron, but with a burst of the Gustaff's boosters, she was soon over the machine's arm, and seconds after boosting, she landed on the same arm. Then, taking a few unsteady steps, Tron boosted again, nearing the machine's face. The Gustaff's right arm then shifted into a drill as Tron reared back and then thrust the drill fist into the machine's face, the bit spinning and sparking before the pressure forced it to find purchase and the drill began pulling into the robot's head.
However, this only lasted for a second before the Gustaff was knocked away by the flailing machine. Still, the opening was made, and Tron, acting quickly, pulled out her bazooka, mounted the weapon on her shoulder, and fired into the small hole the drill fist had made into the robot. The small rocket soared in, then detonated. The blast at first was small and contained inside the robot before the machine suffered a secondary destination deeper inside, which blew its head entirely off its chassis, the force of which nearly threw Tron from the falling Gustaff.
Tron barely had time to save herself from falling out of the Gustaff and get into her pilot's seat before the Bonne family Mecha slammed into the street below, falling onto its back and skidding several meters before stopping. This prompted Tron to sigh in relief before working to get the Gustaff back on its feet. "Wish you could see me now, Megaman; there's no way Roll's a better fit to be at your side than me."
Inside Egg Base Theta
Sonic paced impatiently. True, he wasn't the most patient of people, even on his better days, but he, Silver, and Blaze had completely destroyed the Egg Base, and were now waiting for the 'good' doctor to show up, and instead it was like ol' Eggface was ignoring them. He had even gone so far as to mock one of Eggman's cameras, wiggling and slapping his butt in front of the thing, and yet not so much as a threatening message from the doctor.
"Maybe he's sick?" Silver suggested while sitting atop the wreckage of several Egg Pawns.
"No, I agree with Sonic; it's rather improper of the doctor to just ignore us like this. This might be a trap, or he's distracted." Blaze offered from where she stood.
While both Blaze and Silver were each incredibly powerful friends of Sonic and people the Blue Blue could honestly respect for their abilities and good-hearted nature, he didn't adventure with the two that often, and they and he couldn't read each other like he could with Tails or Knuckles. Silver was a silver and white-furred hedgehog from the future who sought to protect the future by influencing the past. Silver was perhaps one of Sonic's more socially awkward friends, being too straightforward, unable to read social cues at times, and being a little too optimistic at strange times.
Blaze the Cat, meanwhile, was, in some ways, Silver's opposite. A princess from another dimension who was often far too serious for her own good to the point of becoming withdrawn and occasionally lost in formality and duty rather than her own feelings. Today the lavender-furred cat wore her usual attire, with her extra fur up in a ponytail while wearing a violet tailcoat. Still, Blaze's more opulent attire wasn't really Sonic's style, and her personality was certainly something Sonic was working on since she was certainly a good person through and through, despite a few oddities and hiccups.
Honestly, the biggest issue Sonic had with his two current companions was both how easy they made destroying the Egg Base, and how easy the pair were to tease. There wasn't much back and forth with the pair, just some mild embarrassment and polite requests for Sonic to stop. Without Eggman to fight and having to stay still for so long, Sonic was starting to lose his mind with boredom.
Maybe losing his cool and doing something rash was what Sonic needed to move this adventure along. "You know what? Unless someone comes to talk, I think we should just keep attacking bases until I find Eggman and put my foot up his ass." Sonic shouted as loudly as he could, which caused Silver to stand up in surprise while Blaze looked at Sonic in shock.
The blue hedgehog just smirked, sticking his hand out to the pair. And after several more seconds, a hologram projector was activated, revealing Sage to Blaze, and Silver for the first time. The pair stared in awe.
Blaze stepped forward before putting her paw through the hologram and nodding to herself. "So she really does exist. I'm surprised Eggman was able to make a daughter of his own."
Meanwhile, Silver looked slightly worried, while taking a nervous step back. "A-and we're sure she's not a ghost?"
Sage, meanwhile, was not willing to engage in the antics of Blaze and Silver and immediately focused on Sonic. "You threatened Father, demanding to speak with me."
Sonic smirked in response. "Yeah, I figured you were still with Egghead despite everything that happened in the last adventure we shared together. Sage, I have questions, and you're going to answer them."
"No, you are currently acting as hostile elements attacking Father and his facilities. I cannot share information with enemies." The AI girl responded before turning away from Sonic, only to be face-to-face with Blaze, who was still pawing the air where Sage's hologram was.
Blaze seemed enamored with Sage, muttering to herself. "She seems to be exactly how you described her, Sonic. Too bad she didn't appear in the Mirage Express; she really would have livened things up more during that adventure."
Blaze then looked up from her paw that was resting inside Sage's chest. Swiftly, the cat pulled her hand away and straightened herself, taking on a more regal pose. "As Princess of the Sol Empire and guardian of the Sol Emeralds, I demand an audience with Dr. Eggman or an explanation on his behalf!"
"The Sol Empire does not hold genuine authority in this dimension. Neither Father nor myself owe you any explanation. Now you've been distracting me long en-" Sage began already starting to fade before Sonic interjected.
"Fine, but that just means we'll have to keep wrecking Eggman's stuff until I can just beat the answer out of him personally. Because these two have some rather dire information, information I'd be willing to share with anyone willing to think of themselves as my friend, and the only lunatic I know who fits the bill for what they're describing is Eggman." Sonic threatened with a smirk, staring into the back of Sage's head.
"Yeah, Sage, we'll do it if you try to leave now." Silver then joined in, stepping forward with his fists clenched and ready.
Sage stopped, the AI girl floated for several tense seconds in silence before turning back to Sonic. "Fine, I'll remain here. But we don't have much time before Father needs me to come back."
"You know who these two are, right, Sage? Well, imagine my surprise when they both showed up at the same time, warning me of an unknown, impending doom. Tell her Silver." Sonic stated, before turning back to Silver and pointing at the future hedgehog.
Silver nodded seriously before turning to Sage and beginning his story. "I recently returned to the future again to see what changes my actions here in the past had done. However, I was subjected to the worst future I have yet to witness. Our world was completely destroyed, with not even ruins remaining, only craters, and an atmosphere so toxic that despite the chaos energy I was harnessing, I would have died if I had remained for more than an hour. The only clue I had to what had happened was that the planet was surrounded by weird-looking dormant satellites; a few had even fallen to the planet so I could inspect them. Most of them were broken, so I couldn't learn anything more, but I think it's obvious someone wiped out all life on our world, Sage. And in the future, whoever did it had done it long ago."
Sage then paused. Contemplating the information she had been given. "No Father's recent plans would not escalate in this manner; this has to be someone else's doing. Sonic..." The AI paused her coloring, fluctuating between her standard black and red to white and blue. "Promise to protect Father."
Sonic smirked. "I don't like him, and the idea of saving Eggman makes me queasy... But of course I'll save him."
Sage then settled on her blue and white coloration, and Silver blinked. "Now she looks even more like a ghost."
"Then Sonic the Hedgehog, as the Egg-net administrator for the Eggman Empire, I induct you temporarily into the Eggman Empire's defense forces." As she spoke, Sage smiled warmly.
Blaze then smirked with a hand on her hip. "You know, you look a lot cuter like this."
"Do not make comments on my appearance." Sage then flatly replied while changing her colors back to black and red while glaring at Blaze. The AI construct then turned back to Sonic and reverted to her white and blue. "Recruiting Blaze, however, was unnecessary."
Blaze huffed. "Actually, I was sent here. The Sol Emeralds gave me a vision; I don't know where, but there's something that's a threat to my dimension that we need to find before it strikes my own Sol Dimension."
The AI girl paused, her hand beneath her chin, in imitation of Dr. Eggman's own thinking pose. "This data runs parallel with what Father and I are currently observing. However, I am not currently observing anything that would justify the escalation to the conclusion of the events Silver has reported. I will log this for Father's later review."
Sonic couldn't wait for any more of this, posturing, and theory crafting. "You're making it sound awfully like old Egghead is behind all this and deserves me ripping his stupid mustache off."
"No! Father and my current endeavors are of a constructive nature. We sought to improve upon the Egg-net and the Badnik's. To make the Eggman Empire more closely resemble a functional nation-state by founding a city for Father's machines." Dage raised her voice as a plea for Eggman's safety.
"You know nations can wage wars, especially when a lunatic with no concern for their own safety and legacy or the safety of their subjects is in charge." Blaze then added an ominous tone to her statement.
"Father and I had debated heavily. I had convinced him that by improving the standards of operation and processing powers of the Badniks, we would be able to further reduce the potential for betrayal by high-performance machines. And I convinced my father that it would also improve performance against Sonic over the course of time." Sage admitted this to the assembled heroes.
Sonic just scoffed. "Ha, fat chance. Even when I'm hurt and Metal's going all out, I still manage to win."
"Sonic, now is not the time." Blaze quipped, with Silver nodding in agreement.
Sage nodded, then continued. "Father and I then founded Now Eggtroplois for his Badniks to inhabit. The city was still under construction when I located a suitable power source to fuel its construction. Father planned to hold a show celebration to raise morale among the Badnik machines... and to celebrate..." The AI almost seemed to be blushing before skipping ahead in her story. "However, shortly afterwards, your group attacked here, and Father went into a rage. He planned to blindly carpet bomb the entire region in retaliation."
"Shesh!" Sonic gasped. "Good thing we had you with us, Silver; if Egghead had done that, who knows how much damage he would do... So why didn't he?"
Sage was swift to answer Sonic's question. "More intriguing affairs took the doctor's attention away from you. Father and I are currently addressing a invasion of New Eggtroplois as we speak."
"More intriguing? MORE INTRIGUING!? The big, rolly Polly obsesses over beating me day in and day out. Who the hell is interesting enough that Eggman would give up on the chance to bomb me to go see them?" Sonic asked, his ego clearly a little hurt since Eggman chose to ignore him.
"Currently, the subjects are of unknown affiliation. We've identified two of them: a Tron and a Teisel. I've cataloged the appearance of Tron but have yet to have any visuals of Teisel." Sage provided, causing Sonic to raise an eyebrow.
"And I'm supposed to recognize these names?" Sonic quipped back.
"I figured not; however, I had held hope that you or your companions could identify them by the name." Sage replied while opening her hand to reveal a small holographic display growing in size so Blaze, Silver and Sonic could observe it.
The holographic display showed a satellite image over a stretch of ocean before there were a series of flashes at the center of the screen. The flashes got more frequent and more intense before, finally, in a singular display, a green airship seemed to appear with the final flash. "At the same time you initiated your assault on Egg Base Theta, this vessel appeared, four minutes after Dr. Eggman began to fly for Egg Base Theta with the Egg fleet bombers. Ten minutes later."
Sage accelerated the video, and soon the ship began to move slightly, and from the top-down view, with only a slight angle, Sonic could guess he could almost perceive motion happening underneath the green vessel. Soon a small squadron of aircraft flew out from under the airship, each carrying some sort of payload towards what Sonic assumed was Eggtroplois. Soon the ships seemed to land, and then, taking off again, their cargo was revealed as tanks and mechas that soon started moving towards the buildings of the city.
"That definitely was a teleportation of some kind. What do you think, Silver?" Blaze stated while watching, asking the Silver Hedgehog his opinion.
"Well, they don't look anything like those satellites I saw in the future. But how they got here is certainly suspicious." Silver stated while rubbing his chin and squinting at the image. "However, they don't look that advanced, if you ask me. Wouldn't G.U.N. have been a bigger threat to Eggtroplois?"
Sage didn't answer, just allowing the footage to play forward. Soon Sonic could see a top-down view along with some street camera views as small yellow and blue robots stormed into many of the buildings, only to flee shortly after. One of the Mechs with an exposed female pilot, the Tron woman Sage mentioned, entered one of the buildings as well, and soon flashes came from inside, followed by an explosion that shattered several windows. Shortly after this, the tanks began firing into the buildings while the small aircraft brought in new war machines that began to tear into the buildings and into the Badnik's.
As the city began to shift, taking on a form more familiar to Sonic as something similar to Eggmanland, a top-down view showed the large airship begin to move towards the city before unleashing barrages of missiles and strange energy blasts that seemed to destroy large groups of Badniks, Eggman's hardened defense points, and leveled buildings as these invaders pushed towards Eggman's central tower.
"They really are tearing into your defenses, aren't they?" Blaze then stated while watching the ongoing battle with interest as the tanks and strange arm-equipped melee fighting vehicles rolled forward, providing cover and support for the three large mechs of these invaders and the groups of small yellow-blue robots.
"Additionally, Amy Rose and the Diamond Cutters seem to have infiltrated New Eggtroplois and are likely to cross paths with the invaders in roughly four minutes." Sage then provided, causing Sonic's eyes to widen.
"Wait. Amy! What is she doing in one of Eggman's cities?" Sonic stated in shock. The Hedgehog then glared at Sage. "Why didn't you say she was there in the first place?"
Sage paused silently, gathering data before answering. "We think she was attempting to use you as a distraction to infiltrate the city, but the attack has exposed her and the Diamond Cutters, the Badniks in pursuit, and these pirates' bombardment is leading them directly into the path of their forces. Likely, she and the others have also taken an interest in the pirates."
"Whoa, hold on... pirates? I thought they were some sort of invaders." Silver then asked.
Sage turned to the future hedgehog before answering him. "From my observation of their symbols, intercepted communications, and behavior, it is eighty-six percent likely that they are indeed pirates from another realm." As Sage explained, the hologram showed a building collapse under a barrage of missiles from the pirate airship; it's debre kicking up a cloud of dust and smoke that obscures Amy and the Diamond Cutters.
"We don't have time to waste on this; Amy is in danger! Sage, where is Eggtroplois?" Sonic then demanded.
"You don't have Father's permission to enter Eggtroplois; the Badniks will attack you on sight." Sage warned, a slight worry entering her voice.
"Tell me something new. Sage, where is the city!?" Sonic growled in response.
"This is just like the Starfall Islands. I can't stop you... Please just promise me not to fight with Father." Sage pleaded with Sonic while her holographic display began to map a path to Eggtroplois.
"Right... just keep him out of my way." Sonic replied while stretching and preparing to take off, and then Sonic was off, a boom of sound following his departure.
Silver and Blaze watched in shock as Sonic's blue streak slowly disappeared into the distance. "We should follow him. May I have that map, Sage?" Blaze then asked with a polite half bow to the hologram.
"I've already uploaded it to your phone. I will try to convince Father not to turn his weapons on you. However, there are no guarantees." Sage explained.
Blaze just shrugged while Silver chuckled before Blaze responded. "Well, we're more used to him shooting at us than not, so it's alright. And for what it's worth, while I dislike the idea of it being Eggman behind it all, your idea for Eggtroplois is a decent one."
With that said Blaze began to spring after Sonic with Silver floating close behind. Sage just watch the two leaves before sighing. "I just wish it would turn out that way, I fear it may end up for the worst even if Father and Sonic don't do anything to ruin it."
Deep in Eggtroplois
Amy coughed, clearing the concrete dust and smoke from her lungs, while Tangle dragged Whisper and herself out of the wreckage of the collapsed skyscraper. The structure hasn't yet even finished collapsing and was likely to continue its fall, so now the pressure was mounting for the four of them to get away and further into Eggman's latest city. Ever since that green ship took its position over the city, its constant barrage had been leveling buildings left and right and leaving streets awash with devastation.
Amy could hear the chime of Lanolin's wisp, and the lamb soon showed herself next to Amy, pointing and shouting which way their team needed to go. Amy was certainly no stranger to battle and violence; however, typically, it was Eggman's doing for such chaos, and the whole thing could almost be predicted and followed if you understood the madman's ego well enough. But this was a lot more chaotic and had none of the bravado that Amy had grown accustomed to over the last several years.
The only person here who didn't seem phased by everything was Whisper, who simply remained on high alert and routinely took down Badnik's from afar so the team could press deeper into the city. As Amy, Lanolin, Tangle, and Whisper moved into the wreckage of one building to cut through to a new road, Amy caught sight of nearly twenty missiles, each tipped with what looked like a round stylized skull, flying into the building across the street from them, and after a series of explosions, she and the Diamond Cutters watched as the building collapsed.
More dust and smoke filled the street, and soon coughing came from every set of lungs present as everyone began choking on the polluted air. Side by side, Tangle and Whisper coughed and wheezed, only gradually coming to a stop, while Lanolin struggled to stop herself but kept choking on the air. Amy, fortunately or unfortunately, was more experienced in this aspect of adventuring and battle and had come to stop before all the others due to her control of her breathing. However, even as Amy and the Diamond Cutters stopped coughing, the sound of coughing continued.
"Damned Goddesses Teisel, we don't have to level every building on my path. It was one small ambush." A feminine voice stated, punctuated by the loud mechanical sound of a warbot stomping forward and what sounded like treads crushing rubble. Soon, a silhouette loomed over Amy and her companions. Somehow, in the dust and smoke, Amy and her team stumbled into the street, and now we're right in the path of a woman riding a green Mecha. Both the woman and Mecha were adorned with the same skull icon as the missiles that had come from the ship above. Behind the woman were several tanks and six odd little robots Amy had never seen before.
But just as the dust cleared, allowing Amy to see all of this, the other woman stopped her advance and seemed to stare down at Amy, her eyes wide with shock. Maybe the human hadn't expected to see anyone else attacking Eggman at the same time, whatever force she was part of. But, well, she and Sonic were heroes to plenty of humans, maybe she could leverage her fame and get some help getting out of here. "H-hi! My name is Amy Rose. Ummm, nice to meet-"
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
