For who knows how long...nobody said a word. The fact that Whitty and Fiona were dead was a huge shock, of course. But there was more to it than that. It was also the idea that one of us had actually murdered someone...and that if we didn't find out who it was, we would all die here.
We'd found ourselves in a situation where we couldn't help but look at each other with open suspicion. It was the worst situation imaginable. And yet, even in such a perversely terrible situation... they didn't show the slightest hint that it had gotten to them.
Blaze: Now's no time to wallow in your depression. The worst thing we can do right now is lose all faith in each other. That would lead to the same disastrous result as having total faith in everyone else.
Knuckles: Huh...?
Espio: Cooperation is absolutely key at this point. Who you decide to trust or not trust is, of course, up to you.
Crystal: Seriously, how are you two always so calm whenever something crazy happens! We just found out that two of our friends died!
Scourge: Continuing to think about and talk about that stupid dead bomb certainly isn't going to help anything.
Crystal: S-Saying stuff like that is just--!
Scourge: How many times have I told you, kitty? Anyone who can't adapt...will die. Death is the only thing awaiting those who are unable or unwilling to adapt, dipshit. If that happens, you only have yourself to blame! Nyhahahahaha!!!
Amy: What an awful thing to say! Especially after what's happened!
Blaze: Right now, exposing the killer is the most important thing. Because if we don't, we're all going to die here.
Shadow: ...She's right. We need to begin our search right away.
Twilight Sparkle: Either way, we can't run away from the situation, so we have no choice but to move forward.
Amy: We just hafta do it, I guess. What other choice do we have?
Knuckles: No way in hell am I letting someone kill me...! Alright, dammit! Let's do this!
Silver: [Thinking] We just have to do it... Everyone kept repeating that sentiment. They were using it like a mantra to give themselves strength. But they're right. We just have to do this. No matter how much we don't want to, we have no choice. If that's what it takes to survive, then that's what we have to do!
Ruv: [Thinking] On top of that, there was something I needed to find out... I had to know why Whitty had to die. Why he had to be the one... I'm terrified to find out, but still...I have to know. Otherwise, I knew I'd never be able to accept his death. Which is why...I don't have any choice! I have to do this!
Silver: [He took one last look at Fiona's now deceased body. He gently placed his hand on her lifeless body... He touched her wrists to check for a pulse like they do in movies and stuff, but...] ...She...really is dead. [There wasn't anything else to say. She was gone...]
Shadow: I don't know why you even bothered to check. After those injuries, and losing that much blood... Frankly, I'd be shocked if she did survive something like that.
CJ: H-Huh...? H-Hold on... H-H-H-Hold o-on! J-J-Just w-wait a second! Sh-She's...dead!? Then that means...! That means everything that's happened so far is real!? It's not a joke or whatever!? It's really real!? Hell no! S-Someone save me! Let me outta here! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!
Ruby: C-CJ, pl-please calm down... Fr-freaking out isn't gonna solve anything...
Blaze: Before we start searching for Whitty's killer, we need to decide what to do about securing the crime scene.
