The next day at Sonic's place in the forest, he was in his wolf form while Amy was riding on his back. Sonic was walking on all fours in the snowy forest to find the village of Native American Indian tribes where humans and mobians live. Some were all shape-shifters like Sonic but they turn into different animal types.

"So Sonic, they're not gonna kill me, are they?" Amy asked Sonic.

"No, they will see that I'm your friend" Sonic spoke through his mind.

"Okay good. I was just worried" Amy said.

Once they arrived, they saw a tribe of Indians doing some dancing around the totem pole to pray for their gods. Among them was a black and red hedgehog with yellow marks painted on his face. Next to him was a silver-white hedgehog with black lines near his eyes and golden eyes, he had blue stripes painted on his forelocks.

"Native Americans?" Amy asked the blue wolf.

"Yup. Ever since King Scourge came here he took our land we had to move far away from him" Sonic said with telepathy.

"I see. Now we need to talk to them" Amy said, getting off his back to allow him to transform to a hedgehog again.

"There, now let's go" Sonic said. They walked past the human indians to the two male hedgehogs.

"Welcome back, Sonic. Who's the girl?" the silver-white hedgehog asked.

"The name's Amy Rose, I'm a gypsy" Amy said.

"Oh, nice. I'm Silver the Hedgehog and this is my friend Shadow" Silver said, shaking Amy's hand.

"Hello. You need to get new clothing since yours are kinda covered in burns" Shadow said, noticing the burn-marks on her dress.

Amy looked at herself and then at them, "Do you have somewhere to let me change clothes alone. I need privacy?" she said. The hedgehogs nods and gave her a winter indian outfit to wear. She goes in their Tipi tent to get changed while the male hedgehogs are waiting outside.

5 minutes later she comes out wearing her Indian winter outfit and has her long hair/quills down. This stunned the male hedgehogs.

"You look great Amy. Do you like it?" Sonic asked her.

"Yeah, I like it, thanks guys" Amy said. She goes up to them and kneels down.

"She is so beautiful and gorgeous" Silver said in his thoughts but was interrupted by the birds flying onto him, landing either on his head, arms, or shoulders.

"Oh hehehe.... excuse me Amy. The birds love me" Silver chuckled nervously. Amy and Sonic giggled at this except Shadow.

"Hmph, very funny" Shadow scoffs in annoyance.

Silver pouts at him, "All right get away from me!" he shouts and shakes the birds off of him, "I'm trying to have a moment here with a new friend! Do you mind?!" he screams at the birds flying away.

"Do they always come to you Silver?" Amy asked him.

"Yup. But I get used to it. Even as a deer they still come to me" Silver said.

"You are a shapeshifter too?" Amy asked.

"Yep, I can turn into a white deer, like this" Silver stepped back to show Amy. He turned into a white tailed deer with grey fur and teal-blue antlers. Two times big than a normal size adult deer.

"Wow" Amy gasped.

"Yup. Two times big than a normal size adult deer. Though the antlers are something that I need to get used to when walking through the forest trees" Silver said with telepathy.

"And what can you turn into, Shadow?" Amy wondered. Shadow gets up and turns into a non-mobian horse with black fur and red mane and tail.

"Incredible" Amy was impressed.

"Yes, and just like Sonic and Silver I'm twice the size of a normal horse" Shadow said with telepathy.

"I see. Do you three act like the animals you are in the forest or something?" Amy asked.

"We just play along so nobody will know we are shapeshifters, like we bark, neigh or howl. But we remain who we are in mind" Sonic said.

"That's right. If anyone tries to tame me as a horse, I rather stomp them!" Shadow said, turning back to a hedgehog.

"Oh, come on, Shadow. Last year you were almost tamed but you did manage to kick the cowboy's ass"  Silver said through his mind.

"Yeah right. Now, what brings you here Amy?" Shadow asked Amy.

"Well Sonic rescued me from the king's troopers after they set my family's house on fire. They imprisoned my mother" Amy said.

Silver turns back to a hedgehog and was very shocked to hear what she just said, "King Scourge? That heartless monster! Always capturing young gypsies and a few white witches for power and control" he growled in anger.

"Yes. He's a maniac. Wanting me for lust" Amy sighs.

"Don't worry, Amy. You are safe here" Sonic said.

"But my mother is held hostage. Using her to lure me into his trap. But I don't want my mother to die" Amy said.

"Calm down Amy. We'll help you get your mother back" Sonic said.

"But when?" Amy asked, "It will be dangerous. There are a lot of guards out there near his place"

"We will figure out something, and let's see what the spirits of the ancestors says. What's your mother's name?" Silver said.

"Amethyst" Amy answered. Silver nods and he sat down crossing his legs and held out his arms in the air to make contact with the ancestor's spirits.

"Ancestors, tell us how Amethyst is doing at King Scourge's castle. I want to know if she's alright and well" Silver spoke to the ancestors.

The rest of the indians joined in and watched Silver speaking to the ancestors in a native language as well as his eyes glowing teal blue. And after a couple of minutes his eyes stopped glowing.

"She's alright, Amy. But she seems heartbroken by being separated from you" Silver said.

"Thank god. And how did your eyes do that? It glowed" Amy said.

"That happens when I see visions of past or future. I was granted that ability" Silver said, tenderly touched her cheek.

"Thanks for telling me Silver" Amy smiled.

"Easy Amy. You can sleep in Shadow's tent or in my tent. But you can be with Sonic if you want" Silver said.

"Eh....perhaps maybe Sonic's. Since he did save my life yesterday" Amy said, "But who's gonna save my mother?"

"We will as we said" Silver said.

"Oh yes quite right" Amy said.

Later, Sonic and Amy was walking to the river near the snowy forest. They were about to hunt for food.

"Sonic, what do the tribes usually hunt for food?" Amy asked.

"Moose or turkeys. But hunting for wild boars are not common" Sonic said.

"What about fishes?" Amy asked.

"We hunt those too. But I hate water" Sonic said.

"I see. Say can I try the spear to fish?" Amy asked.

"Sure Amy. But be careful" Sonic handed her the spear. They came to the river where the ice hasn't built up yet. She goes up to the shore and held the spear up.

"Just wait for the fish to come, Amy" Sonic said to her.

"Yup, I know. I've done this before" Amy said, waiting for any movements in the water.

Then she dives the spear in the water but didn't get any fish. She tried again and again until she speared a large fish on the spear.

She takes the fish from the spear and showed it to Sonic, "Bull's Eye"

"Nice job Amy. You are really good" the blue hedgehog said.

"Thanks" she said.
