Vize, as he was mentioned, at least in passing, glanced up, even as he got out of Knuckles' and Sonic's collective way. "It's an emerald radar, actually, but by now, she may already be out of range." The squirrel actually withdrew the device as he spoke, and glanced at it. "Although to be honest, I'm not quite sure exactly how far is out of range yet..."

Knuckles shot a glare in Sonic's direction. "Watch it hedgehog, I'm not in the mood." he warned, then listened to Barby's story...and sighed as she started blubbering. What was it with girls and crying around him lately? At least that crab girl and...Rouge hadn't been like that. He glanced at Sonic when she and Vize were done. "Great...so much for getting home. Sounds like Eggman's at it again."

Tails blinked harder this time, trying to make out what everyone was saying at once. "Can everybody be quiet for a moment? I can't think." Tails asked politely, frowning as he tried to sort out everything in his half-awake brain. Gee, so this was what a migrane felt like. And he still felt really tired. He only got in a few minutes of sleep after all. Knuckles was probably here to ask about Shortcake... Sonic.... Tails didn't know what Sonic wanted. So, he skipped over Sonic and went to the squirrel and koala. Mina? Now THAT was a name he recognized. She was that mongoose he met earlier and.... oh! This koala girl was there too! So THAT'S why she seemed so familiar. And she was in trouble... and no wonder- she has a Chaos Emerald! And was captured by one of Eggman's robots? ... Probably Metal Sonic- he's been the only one out and about recently. This concerned him greatly. That poor girl... she was probably terrified. They needed to rescue her, obviously, but everyone seemed to want to have him all at once... what to do... Tails opened his eyes as his brain finally managed to form a plan, and looked at everyone seriously.... until it was ruined by a cute little yawn. "Okay.... let's deal with the little stuff first, that way we can all focus on this... kidnap problem. Knuckles, I can probably guess why you're here, so you go first. After that, me'n Sonic'll chat, and after that we can all discuss about Mina and the Chaos Emerald. Is that good?" he explained, looking to the others incase they had any objections. If they didn't, he then waited for Knuckles to start talking.

"Right, I uh..." he began hesitantly, not really wanting to admit he'd forgotten he'd need another mode of transport besides feet to get back to the island, and he wasn't too keen on stealing another boat. "...needed another ride...back to the island...for me."

A gloved hand crept its way across Tails' face, where he massaged his eyebrows from his sleep-deprived headache. "... Right. I'll get you there as soon as I can Knuckles." He hopped out of his biplane, and walked towards the group. His eyes widened when he realized that Sonic looked a tad bit.... singed. A yawn quickly escaped him before he said, "Good grief Sonic... did someone try to catch you on fire AGAIN?" Another yawn came as Tails bashfully rubbed the back of his head. "So... uh, what's going on then?"

That was when the hedgehog closed his eyes, smirked a little, and let out a long sigh. This was going to take a moment, to be sure... The blue blur began his discussion by starting with the situation regarding Blaze, referring to the most recent time that the fox and hedgehog last met with each other. From there, he went on to discuss his brief visit with Chocolate, before moving on to the short battle with Maze at the flower shop. It was then that he mentioned the event that not only decimated the shop, but caused the disappearance of nearly -everyone- involved... save for him and Shadow. Finally, he got to the crux of his discussion; the sole fact that his 'friend' seems to be making it a mission to retrieve all of the emeralds, having stolen the one that Sonic was carrying... "... So, you see, Tails... The Chaos Emeralds are becoming pretty central to this whole mess. Then again, when aren't they, right?" He gave a cool chuckle, and then raised an eyebrow to the fox. "This is where you come in, ol' buddy. From the way things are looking, we're going to have to beat Shadow at his own game, and start packing in Emeralds, ourselves. You've got the think, and I've got the speed. As it stands, our best bet would be to hit up Eggman's place to get Mina and that other Emerald. Maybe if we're lucky, our old friend Eggman will have more than just one or two." He paused, and tapped his nose for a moment, wondering if there was something else he wanted to say... "... ... If we can't beat Shadow to the rest of the Emeralds, it's going to be really difficult to help Blaze get back to her own realm, as well as counter any offensive that Nega might have in store should he be lying in wait... We're gonna need all the help necessary. And it all starts with me..." He flashed a smirk, and gave Tails a hearty pat on the shoulder just to emphasize the rest of the sentence. "... And you. What do you say, Tails? Wanna get this party started with me?"

Knuckles listened to Sonic's story quietly, though he was developing a suspicious feeling that he wouldn't be getting home any time soon...

Before the kit knew it, a grin had spread across his face. Another adventure seemed to have sprung up before his very eyes. "Heck yeah I do!" he replies semi-enthusiastically, turning to Barby and Vize, "And since Mina has... or had... an emerald already, that kills two badniks with one homing attack- while one group goes and searches for the emerald, we can have a second one to rescue Mina." He then looked sheepishly at Knuckles, "... Uhm... I don't think I can get you to Angel Island right away... but why don't you come along? The more people we have, the easier it's gonna be to invade Eggman's base. And I promise that after we get Mina, I'll get you back to the island."

As much as she's glad that they're going to rescue her friend, it sounds like they want her, and maybe tech-boy, to come with. The idea of meeting more death traps...made her scared. "Waitwaitwait...as glad as I am that you're going to save 'er, but...you want ME to come with?? Heh...I don't want to sound like a coward and I want to rescue Mina too, but... I'm just a civilian...as in 'Oh look, a living shield' for the bad guys!"

The inventor was just as surprised as the koala was, and looked away as he responded. "I'm glad you guys think we could help, but I gotta agree with... Whatever your name is. We'd probably get ourselves killed!"

The hedgehog glanced over at the frantic two, eyeing them both as they seemed to get hesitant at taking the chance to help save the day... which was alright in itself, actually. The hedgehog wandered over to Barby and placed a hand on her shoulder, nodding in agreement. "To be honest, it's for the best that you might want to sit this one out. Me, Tails, Knuckles... We go through this stuff on a regular basis. We always seem to know just how to keep one step ahead of the danger that heads after us. However... If a couple of innocent bystanders attended, and we lost track of you during the event... The three of us'd feel partly responsible. On top of that, if something -did- come up, you'd all be in much more danger than we would be. I don't think we can take that sort of risk. I've known those two for ages, and I'm well aware of their ability to hold their own. No offense to either of you, but... To bring you alongside us onto the battlefield... I can't really afford to make any kind of mistake that'd put either of you in jeopardy." He grinned, and shrugged. "Just trust me, alright? We'll get her out, and put an end to this whole mess. You can count on us!" He turned to the fox and echidna, and placed his fist onto his hips, pointing his thumb behind him. "So, when'll you guys be ready to jet?"

And it seemed that their new plan wasn't going as planned already! For while Sonic was talking to Barby, Tails had fallen still. Even his twin tails drooped, touching the dirty floor. His whole frame seemed to sag, and the fox wobbled slightly on his feet. "..." A loud snore was the only response Knuckles got back. - - - - - - TIME WARP A GO GO!- - - - - - She was hunting. Her failure to find her prey in the city only led to the conclusion that the one she seeks was within the nearby jungle. Her previous experience with this place comes to her advantage, as she easily spotted the lair of the one who occassionally plays host to her own prey. She stalked closer, not making a sound, edging nearer and nearer to the opening of the metal cavern. This close, she could sense her prey... yes, her prize most definately awaited within. With the opening now within her whole sight, she charged, rushing towards the mound of blue, eyes glistening, hungry for success... "<3 THERE YOU ARE!~ <3 <3 <3 <3 <3" Amy Rose squealed at the top of her lungs, lunging at Sonic as a starving tiger might lunge at a hunk of meat. [dice=6] <- GLOMP OF DOOM Of course, Amy's rambunctious entrance was loud enough to rouse the sleeping kit. "Huh, wha?" He mumbled, snapping awake and wobbling a bit as he tried to re-balance himself from sleeping while standing up.[rand=4311016894262245689725654556592950139838850790656825342863872288]

[dice=6] It was with the sudden addition of extra weight, and the force of a car smacking him in the middle, that the hedgehog had come to the realization that he had stayed in the same spot for one second too many. Glancing down at his midsection as he struggled to keep balance, he could make out the one hedgehog that he didn't have the time to see right that moment. But, alas, she had found him again, fair and square. He grimaced slightly, and laid ears back as his eyes widened considerably. Thoughts raced through his mind faster than -he- could've. ((Bonus! Half-arsed voice clip of the following! Here! )) Amy... Why does it have to be -Amy-...? Why not... Eggman and a band of Pawns, or GUN, or anybody else but -Amy-?With a gentle pushing at the pink one, Sonic managed to stay civil. He always had to keep his patience with this one... "G-gah, Amy...! Uh... hi...?"[rand=224384193766399182181638365905575171123538838952489883093421284219]

Why was she not surprised? She always figured these popular...world famous people, like Sonic, always have groupies on his tail. This pink wonder looks like she's the groupie-est of them all. Great! With the kid all drozy, and the hedgehog with the groupie, Barby may never save Mina with their help. "Oi, I 'ave a headache." she muttered, rubbing her forehead.

Uh oh... Tails thought, his ears lowering as he realized just what exactly had occurred. This... probably won't end well. For us anyway. Cue yawn. Amy snuggled her prize, quite content that she had actually managed to CATCH him this time. But elusive or no, she had caught him. Now to execute part two of her plan! With the skill of a professional magician, Amy flicked two fingers, which now suddenly held two tickets, and waved them in front of Sonic, her eyes batting seductively. "Guess what? This lady accidentally charged me for TWO tickets to go see the latest Chao In Space movie... and I didn't catch it time!" Amy squealed, looking at Sonic with sparkles in her eyes. "So I was thinking to myself, who would be the kindest, nicest, most wonderful person to go see it with." It was here she paused, probably for some drama and suspence. "And I thought of you.~ <3" *FACEPALM* "Oh brother." the fox kit mumbled under his breath.

Sonic was, in half an effort, trying to pry the pink one off of him so that he could try his hand at -breathing- again, though it didn't help that he hated being rough with the ladymates... He'd sooner punch a mime in the face than forcefully shove the female type, but Amy... All he could do was run from her, which was why he was always so elusive. ... But he miscalculated, it would seem, and there she was. Clinging to him. "A-amy, we don't have time for this..!" He glanced at either Tails or Knuckles for any form of help. Anything. At all. Anything? Nope. They seemed content on averting his gaze. This was crap. "Amy, Cream's in trouble right now, and Chaos Emeralds, and Sol, and... we can't go and catch a movie! Besides, I have... issues with staying to watch something for over two hours. I have to keep moving, you know. I get stir-crazy. ... I just have things to do...!" He paused for a moment... and decided to try something crazy. He shot her the most awe-inspiring, handsome-faced smile he could muster. "You... understand, right?"

After deciding it was best to not get involved with Amy, Tails walked over to Vize and Barby. As of yet, Tails didn't know exactly where Mina was taken. He knew of several bases Eggman had set up, but most were abandoned. Going to the wrong one would cost them. "Where was that robot headed when it caught Mina?" Tails asked, resisting to yawn some more. [dice=6] Amy swooned. Sonic was sooooo cute when he made that face. "Of course I understand!" Amy pipped, looking at Sonic with sparkling eyes. Was it too good to be true? Was Amy actually going to leave Sonic alone? Those questions were answered as Amy began to drag the most likely unwilling hedgehog out the door. "But me first, Mission Impossible later."[rand=363875208593984788449240603072290569409668213240468310685408346687]

Vize, who'd been quiet... ish till now, spoke up in response to Tails' question, since he'd been the one with the Radar. "Well, my Radar shoed her heading out to sea, actually, but beyond that, unless I got closer I wouldn't be able to pinpoint it."

The white koala glared at the pink hedgehog. The blue one told her of the problems happening, and all this girl cared about is a date. Well...all Barby wondered now is how this will screw up the rescue. "But we don't need him to rescue Mina, right?"

The hedgehog was a little close to despairing. His charm seemed to work, but almost immediately after the desired result, it worked too well, and the pink one was ever more determined to drag him away from the mission at hand. Which... to be honest, was kinda starting to irk him a little. Did she not hear the words 'rescue' and 'Cream'? Maybe repetition would work. "A-amy, c'mon..! This isn't a game! Cream's in trouble! I can't just go watch a movie! We gotta do something about this..!" He began to tug against her pull. Pushing her buttons, he might've been, but he'd probably risk that hammer than be tugged out of a rescue party. "We've already made plans to take care of this, and have every intention o' getting things underway! A trip to the movies can wait..!" "I don't even LIKE the Chao in Space series... It's the same thing every time..!"

Only adding fuel to the fire. Amy truely WAS listening to Sonic, her more-than-selfish behavior being tempered by the hedgehog's stubborness. But, thanks to Knuckles' goading, all thoughts of listening to her would-be companion flew away from Amy's mind. "You don't have to go." Amy said gleefully, now seriously starting to drag the poor Blur Blur towards the train station, "I think that Tails, Knuckles, and those other guys can open a can of Whoop-Ass on their own." She paused, wanting to add something else, "As fantastically fast and furious as you are, they don't always need your help." And as if that was the final say, Amy yanked Sonic out of the workshop with a mighty pull. "Come on, let's see a movie and leave the rescuing to Knuckles and Tails!~" Speaking of the two-tailed vulpine, he was currently pondering what the squirrel had said. He had heard Amy's declaration of his prowess without Sonic around, and couldn't help but blush at the compliment, no matter the reason Amy had used it for. But for now, he had better things to focus on than the twitterpated teenybopper's tirade. Without a word, he went to a desk in the Workshop and began brushing things aside, searching for something. Soon, he revealed a small scanner- his own Emerald Radar. He didn't know the squirrel's prowess- in fact, he was actually rather surprized that he even HAD an Emerald Radar- but he felt that his own, probably more powerful version, could give them another clue. "Out to sea..." he mumbled, not really a statement, and not really a question. His own radar, while not revealing the exact location, did indeed show that the Emerald had been traveling to sea, and was probably still there. The only problem was... where was the base? Tails had been out in the ocean just recently, above the abandoned Egg Carrier in fact, and neither sky nor horizion showed any signs of having one of Eggman's bases nearby. Tails thought that the Egg Carrier could be the base, but quickly dismissed that idea, seeing as it had finally sank into the depths of the ocean on his last visit. This led the fox to one conclusion. Quickly, with a sudden "I gotta go somewhere real quick." uttered at the others, Tails flew out of the workshop, and down to a small wooden platform at the bottom of the Mystic Ruins cliff, where a raft sat. Sure, it was seaworthy, but too small and too light, and with a depressing lack of scuba gear. The fox kit stood there, thinking. He could use his old submarine, the Sea Fox, but that only seated one person, and making trips to and from a guarded base was sure to be an unwise decision. Especially since some might not even know how to pilot said submarine. And so Tails thought, thinking of how to aquire a good boat and at LEAST three sets of scuba gear. And maybe a life vest and float rings for a certain blue hedgehog.

"HOLD IT!!!" Suddenly, the koala IS THERE!!! was right out in front of the two hedgehogs, frowning at them with her arms crossed in a authoritative manner. "That hedgehog promised he 'elp rescue my friend! So take a number! I still need his help!"

"Oh no, you're not shoving this off on me! Bear-girl here wants you to rescue someone, then make that your date!" Meanwhile, as Tails was busy down at the dock, he would find himself interrupted by the approach of a large transport helicopter, which settled over the water next to him. The side hatch, emblazened with the G symbol of GUN slid open and a pair of GUN soldiers jumped out. "Miles Prower?" one of them asked over the noise of the rotors.

This was getting nowhere. The situation had basically been reduced to a mental game of tug-o'-war, and Sonic was the rope being strained to his limits. First off, Amy was being persistent. Then, the koala hopped in (in his defense, but still). And now, Knuckles was starting to get a little annoyed... The hedgehog was about to say something else, specifically towards Amy, but he was suddenly caught off-guard by a very loud noise, that not only pierced the walls of the workshop, but threatened to strike at his eardrums as well. "What the heck...? Eggman..?" Wasting no time, Sonic practically -flew- out the door to see just what was happening. Racing towards the source of the sound, he got close enough to see just what the deal was... causing him to come to a halt, and raise an eyebrow. ... Not Eggman. ... But is it any -better- than...?The hedgehog cupped his hands together, and tried to shout out to his little buddy down the cliffside, trying to best the roar of the nearby chopper; a task that was probably monumentally difficult... "TAILS! WHAT'S GOING ON?!"[dice=6][rand=101532265245593447368953714546462404071296685460275033325350006511]
