"Hey, guys. What are you doing in the forest?" Sonic asked.

"Just talking that's all" Shadow said.

"I see. Well I'm on a walk in the forest" Sonic said.

"You sure that's a good idea, Sonic? What if that ugly echidna might show his face again?" Nebula asked.

"I'll be careful. I beat him once. But I know he can injure me" Sonic said as he walks further in the forest.

"Good, see you later" Nebula said. Sonic nods and he leaves Shadow and Nebula.

At Scourge's castle

He was at the dining room having some fruits and cakes for dessert and was still thinking of what Rosy said to him.

"Whatever Rosy told me, she's..." Scourge was interrupted when Rosy came in to him near the table.

"Your highness, Crimson is nowhere in the castle" Rosy said to him.

"What?"

"He's gone and I don't know why. Did you give him orders to do something?" she asked.

"No, I haven't. He must have double-crossed me. Tell my troopers to search for him everywhere" Scourge said.

"Alright sir. I'll tell them" Rosy salutes and leaves the room.

Later, the troopers were armed with rifles and swords to find Crimson in the town. They marched through the alleys and streets in the town. The people in the town where hiding in the buildings to let the troopers pass through the streets. The leader of the troopers where in front of one patrol and he looked around everywhere.

"Alright people stay calm. We are on a mission to find Crimson the Echidna, stay indoors" the trooper leader said reading a scroll. At a pile of barrels, Crimson where hiding in one of them and waits for them. The owner of the barrels were unaware he was in one of them.

After walking in the forest, Sonic returned to the village to see Amy dancing with the Indians. He smiled at how beautiful she was while dancing and goes up to her to join the dancing.

Amy smiles and dances with him. They tap their feet a little while spinning around the fireplace in the village. The natives along with them spread out their arms while spinning and tapping their feet. The human Indians were vocalizing in native language as a tradition for the dance.

"Wow, it's like I'm flying like an eagle" Amy giggled.

"I know, this is so exciting" Sonic chuckled. Then Amy began doing her gypsy dance.

Sonic saw how the girl he saved began doing her own dancing, she moves backwards and shakes her shoulder and hips while doing her dance, even moving her hands into the air and snaking her arms.

This made Sonic very impressed of how she dances and he was surprised when she came up to him.

"Come here, Sonikku" Amy said with a sly smirk.

"Alright Ames" Sonic grins and joined her. Amy held the sides of her dress and spins side to side with Sonic holding his hands over his head.

"Impressive" Amy said.

"Thanks Ames" Sonic said and grabs a hand-drum to hit while Amy is dancing around. She spins around again holding her dress sides and swirls them around. Sonic hits the drum with the rhythm to the music the natives are playing.

What they don't know is that Crimson was hiding further away from the village, watching the Indians dancing.

"Just wait until the indians fall asleep and I will break the blue hedgehog who beaten me, then I will have Amy hostage so none of the shapeshifters will attack me. Then I will kill the king" Crimson said to himself and hides in the bushes again.

Amy and Sonic were later at the stone house to have their moment alone together.

"Amy, that was the best dance you have ever done. You were good" Sonic said.

"Yeah, thanks Sonic. I appreciate that" Amy said. She held Sonic's hands and looks into his emerald colored eyes which Sonic looked back into her eyes.

"You are the nicest guy I've ever met, Sonic. I was wondering if we could be more than friends" Amy said.

"You mean like....?" Sonic asked.

"Don't talk Sonic" Amy placed a finger on his lips. The two hedgehogs leaned in closing their eyes and their lips meet each other, their first real kiss. Sonic wraps his arms around Amy's waist while Amy held Sonic by the neck. The kiss lasted for a minute and they pulled apart.

"Aaaarrrrooooo!!!!" Sonic howled in love.

"Hehehehe.... Sonic" Amy chuckled at him howling.

"That's because I love you Amy. You make my heart beat faster" Sonic said and morphs into a wolf, nuzzling his face near Amy's quills.

Amy hugged his head and rubs her cheek against his fur, purring against it.

"Mmmm.... so soft" She said quietly. Sonic smiled in his wolf form and laid down on his stomach.

-----------------

"Man, my tail is tingling for like an hour. It's like we're being watched by something" Blaze said, looking at her tail tingling like crazy.

"Same with me too. My ears won't stop twitching" Nebula said.

"It's something terrible, like a grizzly bear heading toward the village" Blaze said. They heard rustling from the forest.

"What was that?" Nebula's ears perk up.

"Let's see" Blaze said, they walked out from the tent to see who it is. Blaze then sensed something in the air, "Oh no!" Blaze realized who it is. Then a tall figure appeared in the shadows.

"Oh yes! And it's time I destroy you both!" Crimson grinned evilly.

"Bring it!" Nebula growled and attempts to use her fists to punch him, only with a small effect on him. Blaze made her hand burst in flames and sets Crimson's cape on fire. Crimson screamed in pain and tears off his cape and he was now very very angry.

"Now you die SAVAGES!!!" Crimson yelled and is about to strike Blaze and Nebula with his bladed fists until a red bear tackled him down.

"GET AWAY FROM THEM!" Yelled Shadow.

"You again! Didn't I kill you already?!" Crimson was surprised.

"Wrong again, we are more than you! Attack!" Shadow shouted, he rushed at Crimson with Silver and Knuckles to attack Crimson as mobians.

Crimson pulls his fists up to fight against the three and just as he's about to punch, he was tackled by Knuckles into a large rock.

"Ugh!"

"YOU BETTER GIVE UP NOW!!!" Knuckles yelled.

"Never!" Crimson yelled and elbows him. Knuckles then turned into his bear form and bites Crimson in the arm.

"YEOW!!!"

Silver morphs into a deer and charges at Crimson with his antlers.

He was knocked back into the ground but he grabs Silver's front legs and throws him aside. Knuckles then runs at Crimson again and slashes him over his left eye, giving him two scars.

Blaze morphed into a cougar, "RAAAAWWWRRRR!!!" she screeched and slashed Crimson on the chest, leaving three claw marks.

"AAARGH! WHY YOU!!!" Crimson screamed and grabs her by the neck and back and threw her hard at a tree. He then sees Shadow coming toward him in hedgehog form and he's about to punch him when Crimson blocks his fist.

"Is that all you got, I'm just getting warmed up!" Crimson taunts him and is about to stab Shadow with his bladed fists when he heard a familiar howl.

"Huh?" Crimson looked up to see a blue wolf howling up the hill. Crimson let go of Shadow and goes up to the blue wolf.

"So you are the one who beat me?!" Crimson asked Sonic.

"Yes, and I'm gonna do it again Crimson. You are considered a threat to my tribe" Sonic said through telepathy. Shadow was about to step in to the fight when Sonic tells him not to.

"No Shadow, this is between Crimson and I, now just back away" Sonic said.

Shadow and the others steps back to let Crimson and Sonic have their second fight together.

"You want my best? You got it!" Crimson said and cracks his neck. Sonic moves around Crimson and then leaps at him to bite him in wolf form. The echidna struggled to hold Sonic back. Then he kicks Sonic off him and glares. He then runs toward Sonic and tries to punch him, only for Sonic's reflexes to make him miss and allowing Sonic to turn into a hedgehog to hit Crimson in the spine.

"AAARGH!!! NOW I'M MAD!!! HUUUAAARGH!!" Crimson yelled and attempts to smash Sonic but only hits the ground.

"Over here!" Sonic taunts Crimson and the echidna tries to punch him again but misses. Then Sonic did a spin-dash at Crimson to knock him down to the ground twice. Crimson got up very pissed off and he grabs Sonic hard by the neck and lifts him up.

"You are nothing, scream my name!" Crimson yelled at Sonic.

"Never!" Sonic glared.

"Then die Savage!" Crimson threw Sonic to the ground and is now ready to do the killing blow when a bullet shot off his blades on his fist.

"AAAAAOW!" Crimson yelled in pain.

"Stay away from the Natives, you are under arrest for treason Crimson!" it was Rosy with Scourge's troopers.
