The bridge over the Great River outside of Knothole was usually a quiet place to relax...except when Sonic went fishing. Now you may be wondering how Sonic going fishing could be unquiet, well it was because Sonic usually took his guitar with him... "Blue streak, speeds by...Sonic the Hedgehog!"...His electric guitar. His baited fishing pole secured to the bridge, Sonic was currently, as he called it, rocking out. "Too fast, for the naked eye...Sonic the hedgehog(hey this is kinda catchy)!"

"Hey hey, rock out you crazy cat!" a voice called from the end of the bridge. Mechanical footsteps beat against the wood as Lance approached Sonic, smirking widely. "You got some sweet rhythm there man. Too bad I can't say the lyrics move me."

"Hey, don't diss the tunes, man," Sonic said in friendly protest. "You're a music lover eh?" He grinned, "You know, with all that hardware, you could probably double as your own amp."

Lance gave himself a glance-over, then looked back at the hedgehog, grinning. "Yeah, probably. The question is do you really want me any louder than I already am?"

"Yeah, wouldn't want that," Sonic said, a fammiliar, to the 'older' Freedom Fighters, smirk appearing on his face, "The girls would never forgive me if I made you louder!"

"The girls?" Lance barked in laughter, "I'd ask how you don't know but what they'd praise you, but I guess it'd be because they'd be too busy praising me!" He stretched a bit, repressing the urge to grimace at the pain it caused him, as well as the yawn that desperately tried to form. Instead, he sat himself down on the bridge and glanced down at the river below, idly wanting to let his feet hang over the side. He couldn't help but wonder if he was even waterproofed. Boy, bathing would sure be an adventure if he wasn't... He took a glance over at the hedgehog's fishing pole. "... Do you really expect to catch anything with all that racket?"

"Never been a problem before," Sonic said, "Heck I once even caught one that actually pulled me off the bridge! It was a whopper!"

Lance threw his head back, bursting with laughter. "And let me guess, it got away!"

"Only after I'd held on for about a mile or so," Sonic said, sounding a tad defensive, "Besides, I'm pretty sure it was juiced up on some funky green water too."

The wolf just continued to chuckle, covering his face and giving his head a shake "Green water. Aw man, if you say so."

"I do! Really mondo stuff too. Those trees we planted down by the river last year? Just a couple drops of the stuff and they went skyward faster than Antoine when you sneak up on him!"

But then someone, who wasn't around during that whole tree thing, came up to the bridge, limping. Dulcy, who was more used to traveling in the air, and in much better conditions, was covered in briuses and scratches. It took her nearly an hour to get back to Knothole; by then, the child she tried to rescue might have been robotiziced. "G-g-got...." Dulcy tried to use the bridges' rails as a crutch, but her legs were about to give up. "...I need to find...Sally...owwww..." She finally fell on the wooden construct, moaning in pain.

"Whoa!" The wolf called, his laughter abruptly ending. He jumped back to his with a metallic klunk and eyed her uneasily. "Uh... is she okay?"

Normally, Sonic would have said yes, but given that Dulcy had WALKED to the bridge, instead of crash landed on it, he knew something was wrong. "Dulce!" Sonic exclaimed, rushing over to the dragon, "What happened?"

She only been able to lift her head to make eye contact, but she felt too weak to make any big movements. "...Tried to save...some girl. But they sic...Stealth-Bots on me."

Sonc just nodded, then looked at Lance. "Right, you stay here, I'm gonna go get Sal." he said, then vanished in a rush of wind a second later.

"Uh... Right..." the wolf said awkwardly, approaching Dulcy. "Um... I, uh... Can you move at all? Need any help?" he asked finally, extending a hand for not being sure what else to do.

Even in pain on the floor, Dulcy switched to delrious-mode. "Dhere's no...trouble, Maaaa....owww."

Sonc reurned less than a minute later with Sally in tow, having basically blurted out a semi-intelligable update on what had happened bfore picking her up amd running back here. "See, here she is Sal!"

As Sonic set her back upon her feet, Sally gasped quietly at Dulcy's condition. The princess immediately rushed to her friend's side. "Dulcy, are you okay?? What happened??"

Lance coughed into his palm. "... I swear I had nothing to do with it."

Still in delrious-mode, Dulcy tried to push herself up, "Dhose Stealth-bots were no trouble, maaaa...." But she fell flat on her face. "Ow." However, that snapped her out her state, and she was back to her RARE angst mode. " That poor girl...-sob-"

"Girl?" Sonic asked, "What girl?"

"Dulcy!!" Sally said more firmly. Her eyebrows furrowed with concern, but her voice remained steady; panic wasn't going to get them anywhere. The princess shook the dragon's shoulder. "Dulcy, stay with me!! Who are you talking about?! Is someone being taken to Robotropolis?!" The ground squirrel's eyes flashed to Sonic, her expression grim. "Sonic, please get Nicole for me; she's on my desk. We're probably going to need her."

Lance cleared his throat awkwardly. "Um. She said some bots got some girl and sicced stealth-bots on her."

The dragoness was still crying as she tried to speak. "I...I tried to save her....-sob-...that poor girl."

And Sonic was GONE again.

"Don't worry, Dulcy," Sally said comfortingly, rubbing her friend's arm. "You did everything you could. Sonic and I are going to go get her; you just worry about recovering."

Lance crossed his arms, looking away frowning.

"B-b-but, I think that was...almost an hour ago. She's gotta be...." hiding her shame, Dulcy slammed her face on the floor.
