Shadow was now safe topside, and far, far away from Eggman's excavation site, having warped himself back to the outskirts of Tropical Jungle. The moment he touched down, his arm pulsed in pain. "Damn it! The Doctor really got me good this time. The shot went right through." He considered tearing off a piece of his vest and wrapping it around the wound in an attempt to stop the bleeding, but he knew Amy wouldn't take kindly that. Before he could make up his mind, however, he heard a voice from the sky. "Shadow!!" Startled, Shadow looked up to see Tails flying towards him. The Tornado 1 was not far behind.
"Tails...and Sonic?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An hour had passed as Shadow, Sonic and Tails filled each other in. "So, I was right!" Tails stated as he finished properly treating Shadow's wound, "Dr. Eggman is still on the move! Whatever he's got planned, it must be big in order to have so many pieces to put together." Sonic just shrugged as he lounged on a rock. "What else is new, Tails? Big or small, makes no difference to me. If it's Eggman, we'll take him down like usual." Tails nodded in agreement, but Shadow then stated, "I recommend you two sit this one out."
"Huh? Why?" Tails asked. Shadow answered, "The Doctor's already made strikes against us. I would prefer to deal with this matter on my terms." Sonic was about to respond, but Tails interrupted, "Oh! How's Amy doing, by the way?"
"Quite well, I must say!"
The three turned around to see Amy herself walking towards them. "Amy?" said Tails in bewilderment, "Is that you??" Amy beamed at the kit, twirling around to show off. "The one and only!" She then gave Tails a hug, which he returned happily. "You look a lot stronger, Amy!" he said, "I guess your training with Shadow has paid off!" Amy smiled and said, "Thank you! I really owe a lot to this guy." She then walked up to Shadow and kissed him. Shadow smirked in response as he held her close. The couple glanced at Sonic and Tails, but for some reason, they did not seem the least bit shocked.
"Hm? You're not surprised?" she asked. Tails bashfully replied, "We kinda already knew." Sonic jumped off the rock he was laying on and added with a smirk, "I spotted you two making out a while back. Naturally, I just couldn't disturb you. Heh heh." Shadow just glared. Amy, however, felt her anger with Sonic start to build again. For Tails' sake, she fought it down. "Shoot. I wanted it to be a surprise..."
"Sorry, Amy," said Tails. Amy said, "You have nothing to apologize for, Tails." She made it a point to avoid looking at Sonic. The Blue Blur figured as much and coolly adjusted his jacket, keeping silent and nonchalant. Tails was a bit puzzled, but Shadow quickly recognized the growing tension, and was quite annoyed by it. Enough was enough. "Tails, let's go."
"Huh? How come?" inquired the fox. Shadow lied, "I'm curious about your inventions." Tails asked, "Why are you all of a sudden..." Then his eyes widened in understanding. "...O-Oh. Ok." Sonic's ears twitched in curiosity, but Amy glared, as she knew damn well what her boyfriend was up to. "Shadow..." Said boyfriend simply led Tails away by the shoulder and said, "We'll only be a moment, Rose. Try not to kill each other, ok?" Before she could protest, they were gone via Chaos Control, leaving Amy and Sonic alone.
Amy stood there, glancing at Sonic every so often. He looked bored. Many instances in their past flashed in her mind, times when he looked just as bored around her then as he did right that moment. The anger built up again...and it was boiling. After a few more uncomfortable minutes, Sonic decided to break the ice. "So, how's the training going?" Amy sarcastically replied, "Oh, you actually care, Sonic? I'm touched." Sonic sighed in irritation. "Of course I do. You're my friend, Amy. You always have been." She just rolled her eyes. "You've got a crappy way of showing it."
That was it.
"All right, look. I've apologized numerous times and can keep doing it up and down until the cows come home, but it's been two freakin' years, Amy. If you want to stay mad at me, that's your problem, not mine." He then turned to leave, intending to look for Tails and Shadow. But, he could only take one step. He tried to move his other foot, but he couldn't. To add to his confusion, the rest of his body felt restricted as well. He racked his brain for a moment before it hit him! This was Psycho Kinesis! "What the heck?!" he exclaimed, "Is Silver here, too??" Straining, he turned his head and saw not Silver, but Amy, glaring daggers at him and glowing fiercely.
As Sonic tried to figure out what was going on, all that was going through Amy's mind was rage. Undistilled, bottled up rage that had reached its limit. He had turned his back on her, had blown her off...AGAIN. Just like he always did! He NEVER took her seriously! EVER!! "Amy…??" Sonic asked in befuddlement. "Since when can you-" Amy stopped his sentence by using her PK to slam Sonic into a nearby of tree, over and over again as she yelled, "Don't you dare turn your back on me again!!"
"Tails...and Sonic?"

After a few more slams, all of which cost him Rings, she dropped him. Sonic knelt on the ground for a moment, as he was a bit shaken up. Fortunately, he lifted his head just in time to see a giant boulder slam down upon him, forcing him to dodge it with his Quick Step technique. Outraged, he whirled at Amy and shouted, "What the crap, Amy?! You could've killed me!"
Amy shot back, "Shut up, shut up, shut up!!! I don't care! I've had it with your neglect, Sonic the Hedgehog! Now I'm gonna beat you down so hard, you'll never forget me again!!" Sonic bared his teeth. He had tried to avoid this, but she left him no choice. Besides, he was way past fed up with her at this point. "You know what? FINE. If you want your little pink ass to be black and blue, then bring it on!!!"
