==Synopsis==
"What was that?" Amy asked.
"More like who was that," Sonic replied.
"We have to find the treasure before those people," Cream said.
"Guys. Knuckles and Shade are back," Tails said, walking up to them.
"Things aren't looking good for Knuxade," Rouge said, smirking.
"How's Blaze?" Shadow asked Rouge.
"I'm not sure yet. But Eggman said he'll orchestrate a video call," Rouge said. She whispered. "I still don't trust him."
"You are such a jerk!" Shade screamed.
"You keep bossing me around, and I'm sick of it!" Knuckles yelled.
"What?" Shade asked, softening.
"We're done, Shade," Knuckles said.
"Wait...," Shade said. But Knuckles left to his and Shadow's room.
"I'll be back. I need to go feed Cheese," Cream said.
"I'll go with you. We should probably get some food for him," Tails said.
"Yeah, you're right! I heard Chao like fruit. I'll go ask Vanilla for some," Cream told him. Cream got the food, and went upstairs. Then, a scream echoed through the house.
"Cream, what's wrong?" Vanilla asked, running upstairs. Amy and Tails were right behind her.
"Cheese.... he's gone!" Cream exclaimed.
"You don't think someone took him, do you?" Vanilla asked.
"I doubt it. It's not like anyone knows Cheese is here besides everyone who lives here," Tails said.
Amy's eyes widened, but she said, "You're probably right Tails."
Rouge went to check up on Knuckles.
"Hey, Knucklehead. You okay?" she asked.
"I'm fine," he said.
"You don't seem fine. What happened?" Rouge asked.
"I'm just tired of Shade. All she does is act like she's a better echidna than I am," Knuckles said.
"I'm sorry... " Rouge told him. They leaned in closer, but Rouge left.
Amy and Shadow were talking.
"Shadow, you told me you knew Maria. How exactly do you know her?" Amy asked.
"I don't want to talk about it." Shadow said.
"Please Shadow. Do it for me?" Amy said.
Shadow sighed. "Fine."
"I was created to be the Ultimate Lifeform by the renowned scientist Gerald Robotnik. Maria was his granddaughter. She was my friend aboard the Space Colony Ark. But... I watched her get murdered by a G.U.N. soldier," Shadow said.
"I'm so sorry." Amy told him. She hugged him.
"What... what are you doing?" he asked.
"I'm... trying to comfort you...," Amy said, embarrassed.
He smiled, which was a rare occurrence. 
Sonic was looking at the clock.
"What was Shadow doing?" He asked himself. Sonic mimicked what he saw Shadow do. He pushed back the glass of the grandfather clock, and turned all of the hands onto seven. A panel opened up in the middle of the clock!
"It's a puzzle piece!" Sonic exclaimed.
Rouge was in Eggman's office.
"You wanted to see Blaze," Eggman said."Well here you go."
