Sonic Triumphant

Chapter nine: triple trouble, times three

Having made their way out of the cave, Tails, Amy, Cream and Cheese made their way through the jungle, trying to reach the center of Angel Island. The trio figured that the Echidna city was where Robotnik was holding Vanilla, so they would trek towards that location. The three of them soon noticed a clearing ahead, so they decided that's where they would stop for a rest.

"Hey, girls! Get over here!" Tail called out, as he looked out into the clearing. "You're not going to believe what I just found!"

Cream and Amy looked into the clearing, and their eyes lit up like candles. It was a large and colorful amusement park; neon lights, carnival tents, Ferris wheel, and roller coasters. It was like a brightly lit fantasy land, whose shining colors and beautiful decor were very alluring to the three young mobians, even during this current crisis.

"What... what is this place?" Tails asked in awe. "It looks incredible!"

"This is Balloon Park, the amusement park the echidnas had built." Cream Explained. "They used to come here to relax... my mom even brought me here a few times."

"Chao Chao." Her new little pet agreed, Cheese looking around at all the pretty lights and colors.

"This place looks like sooo much fun!" Amy squealed, stars in her eyes. "We have sooo got to come back here after we rescue cream's mom!"

"Yeah, but right now, we've got to keep moving." Tails said, tearing his eyes away from the colorful spectacle. "Vanilla Rabbit is counting on us!"

The trio began their trek through the park, looking around at the boarded up stalls on the midway. As three of them strolled through the vacant amusement park, they failed to notice a hoverbike, with three passengers aboard, flying above them.

"I can't believe youse two idiots, letting that Vanilla Rabbit get away!" Nack snarled, piloting the Lucky Queen. "Robotnik is going to slash our bounty for sure, now!"

"Hey, we couldn't help it!" Bean protested. "Those ghosts put up a tough fight! If we hadn't discovered their weakness to light, we'd have all been goners!"

"Baaah! Youse two are woithless!" The weasel pulled out his binoculars. "Now, we know she stole Bean's old extreme gear hoverboard from his battle bird days out of the lucky queen's trunk, and the tracker on the board says she was headed this way. So keep youse eyes peeled!" Nack looked down at the ground, and saw the trio of mobians on the ground. "Well, well, well... I think we's found our OTHER targets, boys!"

The weasel swooped the bike down, zooming over the trio's heads. Nack landed about twenty feet in front of them, and he, Bean and Bark jumped off of the hoverbike. Startled, the trio of mobians stared at the hooligans in stunned silence.

"Hello, guy and goils..." Nack snickered, pulling out his gun. "...if youse three will comes along quietly with us, then nobody gets hurt."

Amy Rose stared at him for a moment in shock, and then her face contorted into a look of rage. Without uttering a word, materialized her hammer, and charged at the weasel in a rage.

"YOU!" She screamed at the top of her lungs, bringing the piko-piko down towards Nack's skull. The terrified weasel barely dodged out of the way, before the hammer slammed down into the ground, cracking the pavement on the midway. "YOU THREE KILLED MY FAMILY! I'L #%&!-ING DESTROY YOU!"

It was at that moment, that everything erupted into total chaos. The hooligans jumped into battle with the trio, with bean attack Cream, and Tails going into battle with Bark. The three battles spread throughout the amusement park, degenerating into an all-out brawl.
