Chapter 1: The Beginning of the End

"You've gotta be frickin' kidding me!" I groaned at Sonic as I glared through my pink bangs at the slightly daunting roller coaster in front of us.

"Nope, not at all." He laughed in the face of danger.

"That thing is giving me the flying metal death trap feeling." Shadow shared my feelings for "The Hotshot to Hell".

Too damn of an ironic name for a fricking roller coaster for me. I thought angrily.

"If you are all gonna be complete idiots and ride that thing, can you at least let the line thin out first before you all go and kill yourselves?" Rouge asked jokingly from behind me.

"Amen." I sighed.

"Okay, alright, fine. If you have to go and ruin the fun of standing in line, go the hell ahead." Espio faked anger and folded his arms over his chest in false contempt.

"Thanks, guys." I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Anything for you, babe." Sonic leaned over and gave me a kiss.

"Sure…" I became lost in my thoughts as we walked around in the semi-light, looking for our first ride.

The carnival was in town, and every damned person in Station-fricking-Square was here. Why the hell I even agreed to go, I have no idea. I hate crowds. Screaming kids and irritatingly long lines did me in too.

SO, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE?? I asked myself irritably.

"Can we get some cotton candy?" Tails asked pleadingly, practically drooling as we passed the stand. I dug three bucks out of a pocket and handed them to Tails. He took off like a rocket, shooting straight to the stall in anticipation of a sugar high.

"What the hell? Tails can get some cotton candy, but I can't throw a damn baseball at three bottles?" Knuckles yelled at me, sounding like a 10 year old.

"That game's a rip off and you damn well know it!" Sonic leapt to defend me. He backed off, retreating into a pissed-off-bigger-than-shit silence. Tails returned seconds later with a mountain of pink and blue sugar. Sonic and I took one glance at each other before grabbing a piece of the other's favorite color sugar. We crammed the piece in the other's mouth.

"Well, that wasn't a reference at all." Espio jabbed at us.

"I don't know what the heck you're talking about." I waved him off.

"Sure you don't, B… S…" Espio smiled wittily back at me.

"Ha, ha, ha, well guess what? F… U…" I returned with fire.

"OOOOOO! Someone's looking good tonight!" I shuddered at the voice. Sally the squirrel bounded up to our group.

"Ready, everyone. On the count of three, we all scream bloody murder and run." Vector plotted, rubbing his hands together.

"Hey, Sally, in case you haven't noticed, this is a private conversation, in which you are not part of." Knuckles finally got over Sonic yelling at him and calmly spoke the dismissal to Sally as if nothing was wrong.

"Huh?" Sally stared blankly back.

"Shit…" Knuckles mumbled and turned his back to us.

"ANYWAYS, I'm SO glad you guys are here." She squealed excitedly. "Especially you, Sonic." She added as her eyes became fixated on him.

Shit was right. I gotta act fast!

"Uhhh… Sally, do you mind getting us some popcorn?" Sonic asked, making me glad I didn't have to get her away from him. He could do it himself.

"Anything for yooooouuuu, Sonic-kun." She cooed and skipped off to find us popcorn.

"Quick, now let's get the hell out of here before she comes back." Knuckles spat on the spot Sally had been standing.

We all nodded in agreement and ran off towards a spinning wheel that lifted from horizontal to vertical, causing the rider to do at least four back flips while enclosed in a protective, padded car, "The Flaming Wheelie". We packed two of us in each car: Sonic and I, Shadow and Rouge, Tails and Knuckles, Espio and Vector. Sonic sat behind me in the car so I would feel safer. He knew I hated most rides and even this one was a stretch for me.

"It's gonna be okay. I'll make sure of it." He whispered in my ear as the operator pulled the door to the car closed. I tensed nervously as the operator yanked down hard on the door and looked inside at us. He grinned at us, showing his rotting teeth. I felt nausea start to creep up on me and covered my eyes with my hands. I heard the operator let out a creepy, devilish laugh. Sonic laughed back and I groaned weakly. Then, I felt Sonic's hand grab my own. He pulled my hand away from my face and forced me to look at him. "Trust me." He flashed me his signature grin, so I had to believe him.

Then, the car jerked forward as the center wheel began to turn. I swallowed a scream and looked behind me. Tails's eyes were huge as he looked pleadingly at the operator. I was halfway surprised when the operator waved at Tails in a friendly way. This time, when he smiled, his teeth were a shiny white.

"Huh?" I pressed my face against the bars in confusion.

"Fake teeth, Amy." Sonic chuckled. Sure enough, the operator had a fake set of teeth in his hand.

"Oh." I slapped my forehead in embarrassment.

"Here we go! Come on, Tails, put your hands in the air and wave 'um like you just don't care!" Knuckles yelled to Tails, even though they were in the same car together.

"Are you insane?!" Tails screeched and I heard scrabbling from their car.

"Tails, you're gonna kill the both of us, stop it." Knuckles calmly told the kitsune.

"I think I'm gonna be sick." Tails moaned as he slumped against the side of the car. I looked to the car in front of us, watching as Vector struggled to stay squished up so he wouldn't crush Espio.

"This damn thing better hurry up before I shoot myself." I heard Vector groan.

"It'll be over in approximately two minutes, just chill." Espio stifled a laugh.

"Just chill, my ass!"

"Vector! There are kids in the area!" I yelled out of my car.

"Sorry, my butt!" He added.

I shrugged it off, feeling the machine beneath me begin to groan from the pressure of keeping up the rotation. Then, the wheel gave a huge shudder as it began to rise up from its horizontal position and a slightly muffled version of "Nine Thou (Grant Mohrman Superstars Remix)" by Styles of Beyond beat out from the loudspeakers around the perimeter of the ride.

"Here we go!" Sonic yelled excitedly.

"Say your prayers!" Shadow's voice hollered out from the car two behind us. With each rotation, we reached a higher point off the ground than before. I closed my eyes tight, hoping it would be over in a few seconds. But, closing my eyes didn't stop the alien back-flipping sensation from seeping into my spine.

Seconds later, Sonic's grip on my hand tightened.

"Look, Amy! We're flying." He whispered in my ear. I opened my eyes long enough to look out of the car at the blur of trees, lights, people, as we whipped past them all.

"Yeah… it's pretty from up here, huh?" I asked, losing my fear for the moment. He wasn't paying attention anymore and was making faces at Tails and Knuckles. I sighed and continued to stare out into the blur.

Weird how a whole different perspective on something changes the way you look at it… I thought wistfully.

Suddenly, the wheel gave another groan and began its slow descent back to the ground. I cast one last longing look back up at the full moon, praying the rest of the night would go as smooth as the first ride. The machine gave one last shudder as it returned us to our horizontal starting position and began to slow us down. Surprisingly, I didn't feel dizzy and I actually felt giddier than before.

Finally, the wheel halted and the doors to our cars flew open, allowing us an exit. Seven of the eight of us walked out perfectly fine, but a certain yellow kitsune flew straight for a trashcan.

"Remember to aim!" Knuckles called after him, laughing hysterically.

"Knuckles, it's not that funny. He could puke his guts out!" Rouge glared at Knuckles as she scolded him. "Tails, are you okay?" Rouge called after Tails. The poor fox lifted his head up only for a second to give us the thumbs up sign before his cheeks bulged again and he lurched forward, nearly falling into the trashcan. I winced slightly, feeling sorry for him.

"Tails." I called to him. He didn't look up this time, keeping his head down in the can. "I'm coming to clean you up." I walked over to him and took a handkerchief out of my purse.

He finally stopped puking and sat down next to the trashcan among the wrappers and paper littered about the area.

"Feel better?" I asked him as I bent down next to him. He nodded and gave me the slightest hint of a smile. I wiped his face gently with the hankie, making sure I got every trace of half-digested sugar from his face. "Well, good." I smiled at him and patted his head.

"No more rides after eating." He groaned as he stood up again. I got to my feet as well and we walked back to the group.

Sally had managed to track us down again. I slowed as Tails and I approached.

"What's wrong?" Tails looked up at me worriedly.

"Sally." I breathed, clenching my fists in anger.

"Oh." He recognized her too.

"Where WERE you guys?! I got your popcorn." Sally turned towards us, extending a small red and white striped carton to each of us.

"No thanks." We both said together. When she gave us a hurt look, I sighed and looked in Tails's direction.

"We had a bit of a stomach problem." I mumbled convincingly.

"Huh, well that's too bad. More for me, I guess." She shrugged and popped a piece in her mouth.

"Mister Sonic, Miss Rose!" I whipped around to look into a welcome face.

"Hey, Vanilla." Sonic and I said together and ran to hug the rabbit.

"Cream, your friends are right-?" Vanilla started to tell her daughter, who was no longer at her side. "Cream?" She looked around blankly.

"Here, Mother." Cream's singsong voice called out to us as she floated down to us from above.

"What have I told you about flying in public?" Vanilla scolded Cream.

"Not to fly unless it is absolutely necessary." Cream looked down in embarrassment.

"Exactly, now let's try to follow that rule."

"But, Mom! You were walking too fast, and I was going to be left behind." Cream objected.

"Hush now, Cream." Vanilla said tiredly. Cream mumbled something about a 'control freak' and returned to her mother's side.

"Hello, Mister Sonic, Miss Rose, Mister Prower, Mister Knuckles, Mister Espio, Mister Shadow, Miss Rouge, Mister Vector, and Person-I-Don't-Know." Cream listed our names off in fake politeness. We all knew it was just a charade she was forced to keep up around her mother. I smiled to myself.

"Hello Cream and Vanilla." We replied as politely as we thought necessary. Vanilla cleared her throat, as though she was expecting something else.

Freakin' uptight prep. She's gonna screw Cream up for life. I slightly narrowed my eyes at Vanilla.

"Dude, check it! The line's as thin as it's gonna get!" Knuckles suddenly yelled. We turned our heads towards the main attraction. The line for "The Hotshot to Hell" was way down.

"Well, Cream and I are going to head over to the "Mini Mount Everest", right honey?" Vanilla nudged Cream gently.

"Yes, Mother." Cream scowled down at the ground, obviously wishing she could suddenly grow another foot so she could ride the 'big kids rides'.

"The path to that ride goes right under "The Hotshot", so look for us when we take off." Sonic told Cream. She smiled a touch at that.

Sonic knows just the way to make a kid happy.

"Well, how do you like that? We'll be sure to wave to you when you pass over us." Vanilla promised.

"Okay then, see you on the flip side!" Sonic said as the two turned their backs to us and walked away. "Well, what're we waiting for? Let's get over there!" Sonic's voice was raised an octave in excitement.

A minute later, the eight of us once again stood side-by-side in front of the huge roller coaster. Sally stood slightly in front of us, hands on her hips as if challenging the metal beast before her.

"I still don't have a great feeling about this." I mumbled to myself.

"Probably some half-ass built, broken down, piece-of-shit, gonna-fall-apart-the-second-I-step-foot-on-it roller coaster." I heard Shadow mutter beside me, becoming slightly glad I had someone who was even just a little on the sane side.

"Well then, you 'fraidy-cats can just stay here and watch us scream our heads off." Sally snarled back at us. I glared in response, ready to jump up and kill her then and there.

"No, I'm going to try." I choked down a smart-alleck remark.

"Me too, now that I get up close, I want to take the challenge." Rouge studied the twisty ride before her.

"That's the spirit, Amy." Sonic put his arm around my shoulder. We got in the line together and began the relatively long wait to board the ride.

When we got close enough to hear the roar and screech of the beast, I started shivering and I couldn't shake the feeling that something absolutely terrible would happen. Then, as one train screamed by, everything stopped. A white beam of light flashed across my vision, and suddenly, everything had a reddish tint, even the sky.

All nine of us were on the roller coaster. I looked to my right; saw a flash of a hissing flexible pipe as we started off, already at least 50 feet above the ground. I found myself unable to scream for the operator to stop the rise to the fall. Then, the hose flicked out hard, snapped several wires. Sparks went flying and I heard something snap on the train.

Sure enough, just as we were about to go over the drop, the hydraulics and the brakes fell off of the train. The brakes, obviously heavy enough to hurt someone, weight increased by the fall, crashed straight into and through the track below. I grabbed for Shadow's hand and held on tight as we began our all too-quick descent towards Hell.

Knuckles got the bright idea that if he and Vector grabbed onto the beams above us when we hit the first tunnel, they would be able to slow the train down enough to stop it in between two hills. When they forced their bars off though, all of the bars on the train shot up, so we weren't secured in our seats anymore. They stood up on the sides of the train and held out their hands, but the bright idea didn't turn out to be so bright. Their hands were chopped right off of their arms, leaving only stubs in their place, blood gushing out like a fountain. Vector was knocked off from the force of the impact, thrown under the train by sheer force, and sliced open like butter with a hot knife, showering us with blood.

Knuckles jerked back down, howling in pain and struggling to hold on to the side of the train. Rouge leaned over and tried to grab his arm before he was crushed between the wall and the train. She was unable to save him and Knuckles's blood ran the silver sides of the train red.

Espio reached across to pull Rouge back inside, but sat up too high and was beheaded on a crossbeam. His headless body fell back into the car, while his head rolled over the side and onto the track.

The train hit Espio's disembodied head and nearly derailed, but only jerked forward for a second. But that one jerk sent Rouge flying into the crossbeams. She managed to fly through the beams, but when she saw open air, she flew up too early and clipped her wings on the tunnel's exit. She plummeted to her death at least 150 feet below.

Then, the coaster corkscrewed, shooting Tails out of the train like a rocket straight onto the tracks. His shoelace got stuck in between rails and he was trapped. The train rammed through Tails at 100 miles per hour, his body exploding like a bomb just went off inside him.

Then, the train shot up the first loop. The four of us left managed to hold ourselves in just barely. When the ride flipped upside down for the last part, however,

Sally's hand slipped from Sonic's grip and she fell onto the tracks below, snapping her neck and back, instant death.

Sonic held on with all of his might as the track ran over the spot where the path to "Mini Mount Everest" ran under us, the spot where the track was broken. Sonic leapt over the front of the train and positioned himself to try and stop it, but the train bowled right over him, wheels grinding as they made mince meat out of his body.

The train derailed and threw Shadow and I out of the train and onto the path below. The train, however, came down right on top of Cream. When the train hit the ground, it also tapped a highly sensitive gas valve, causing an explosion as the pure oxygen reacted to the sparks already flying from the cut wires. The explosion engulfed Vanilla in the blaze, burning her body like marshmallows left too long over a campfire. The explosion also sent debris flying.

Shadow turned too late and was impaled on a tree branch. Milliseconds later, a smaller branch impaled my arm and pinned me to the grass. I struggled as I bled out on the ground, until the second explosion swallowed me in pure hell.

"Come on, Ames. Pull your shoulder bar down." Sonic whispered from behind me.

"NO, NO, NO!! The breaks are shot on this damned thing! Get off of this thing or you'll die!!" I screamed and fought as the operator tried to pull the bar down over my head.

"I'm sorry ma'am, but when you enter the car, you can't get off." The operator explained tiredly.

"Please, LEMME OUT!!" I yelled and refused to let him put the bar over me.

"Just let her off, sir." Sonic said kindly.

"Alright, then. Whole row, up and out, you get first pick on the next train." The operator gave up trying to force me to stay on the ride. I gratefully stepped onto the exit platform on my right, still near tears. But when Sonic pulled the bar down over his head, I began bawling.

"NO, PLEASE DON'T GO, SONIC!! YOU'LL DIE!! THE BRAKES WILL FALL OFF!! LISTEN TO ME!!" I screamed, tears flowing from my eyes as I ran back to him.

"Hey now. Take it easy, everything's going to be all right." He reassured me.

"No it's not! I saw it. We all died on this ride!" I yelled. Sonic had no idea what to say at that point. He knew that seeing something usually meant a glimpse of the future. But, he also knew that I didn't usually have the power to gaze into the future. "Please listen to me, Sonic." I cried softly.

"Sorry, Amy, I'm already locked in. I'll see you on the other side." He grinned at me as the train lurched forward and started to leave the platform. "Take care of her for me." He told Shadow with a wink.

"Watch Rouge for me." Shadow shot back. Sonic nodded and gave us the thumbs up.

"Oh God, no. Don't let them die." I begged to the sky. "Tails, take off and find Cream and Vanilla. Get them the hell off of the path to "Mini Mount Everest". I don't care what it takes, just get them off of that path!" I ordered. He whirred his twin namesakes around like a helicopter until he rose into the air. "Hurry." I added as he turned to the path and began to fly towards it. "Who do I have here? Vector, Tails, Shadow…"

"What did you see?" Shadow's voice was commanding and his eyes were intense, but I stood my ground.

"I can't say because I'm not totally sure if it will happen and it's horribly gruesome." I stared up into his eyes. He stared back, eyes saying "Why should I care about someone as pathetic as you?".

"Uhh… guys… I just heard… screeching…" Vector said quietly.

"You've got to be joking." Shadow grabbed my hand and the three of us ran outside together.

Please, let my vision be a mere warning. Please, don't take them from me…
