Amy sighed as she put down some of her luggage and sat on a bench.

She brought six suit cases with her, two are carry on and three are quite large. One last piece was a box. That was all of her items, she wasn't expecting anymore.

She didn't own much.

She had lowered her posture to rest her chin on her hands, her elbows resting on her thighs. She looked a round her, waiting for Sticks to come back.

After two minutes, she looks at the time, on the clock near the bench, it says 12:45 pm.

"This is going to be a while....", she muttered.

------

It actually took longer than she thought. The sun is starting to go down and Sticks is nowhere to be seen.

"Just what is she doing?", she was restless.

-------

With Sticks, she is fighting a large metal scorpion that is holding her waist and thrashing around. She screams and hits it with her boomerang.

"Let go of me, you piece of fu-", she demands.

‐-----------

Amy groaned. She dramatically lays down on her back. One arm covering her eyes and another arm over her stomach. It spoke to her, saying she hasn't eaten since she got there.

She didn't have any way to contact Sticks and she has no idea where she needs to go.

"Just what am I going to do?", she sighed.

"How about handing over all your valuables?", a voice said.

She sits up and looks at the gang in front of her. One was an Ox, another was a Hyena, and the third was Falcon.

They surrounded her and the sun completely went down. She's left in the dark with only moon light and no one to help her. However, she was never one to cower in fear.
———

———
"Listen up busters! I am not afraid of any of you! You hear me? So, I'd walk a way if I were you.", she warned.

They laughed and took in her feminine outfit. They thought she threated them out of fear, but how wrong they were. The next second had them slammed by a large hammer.

The Hyena was knocked out instantly, but his friends recovered enough to get back up.

"Why you little-", he screeched.

She moved her hammer quickly at the Ox and almost hit his temple. He fell backwards to dodge the hit. The Eagle moved in from the sky with a spiked bat. Her reflexes where barely fast enough.

It would swing at her three times and the bat grazed her arms. She tried not to show it hurt with an angry growl. Lifting her hammer above her head and jumping up at the Eagle, she forced him to abandon the bat. She smashed it in half.

With her occupied and wide open, the Ox hit her in the back. A scream was ripped out of her. It was loud enough to alert someone near by.

Once she was on the ground, her hammer out of reach, the Ox and Eagle hit her a few more times. She was loosing strength.

"So much for my workouts....", she thought.

The Ox almost hit her and when someone intervened.

"Oh no you don't!", a familiar voice claimed.

She sat up and saw who was in front of her, defending her against two big and mean gang members.

"Sticks! You're back! What took you so long?", she cheered.

"I had a run in with a nasty robot.", Sticks confesses.

"Robot?", she thought in confusion.

Sticks lent her a hand and Amy took it. The Eagle and Ox tried to land a blow to them when they were distracted, but they acted quickly. Amy and Sticks used their connected hands to whirl; Sticks kicked the both of them with the momentum they built up.

The Ox barely got up again, getting tried from the fight and having a new opponent with energy did not help. He barked at his companion to drag himself up.

However, before the fight continued, the sirens and flashing lights alerted them that the authorities have arrived.  Panicking, they picked their buddy up and ran away.

"We'll get you two girlies! You will pay for this!", The Ox claimed.

"I don't think so!", Amy intervened.

Amy used whatever strength remaining to launch her hammer at the Ox. It nicked him in the leg. It caused him to fall on top of his unconscious friend.

---------

After the long and boring talk with the cops, they were sent to the compound from the police station. Getting a ride in a police car wasn't something Amy thought would happen when she got here, but she won't let that her down.

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

The people at the compound were really confused when they woke up. The housekeeper was quite worried with her daughter right behind her.

"what in the world?", she whispered.

Soon she saw Sticks and then a girl she has never met. A young, pink hedgehog with a lot of luggage. They make eye contact, the girl waves with a nervous smile.

"Hello there! I'm Amy Rose.", she greets her.
