==Synopsis==
"So, what does Ket mean?" Amy asked.
"Well, it's the Egyptian word for fire." Vanilla said. "What's the sudden interest in mythology?"
"We have to research an ancient civilization for History class. Delta will kill us if we don't study." Shadow lied.
"Oh, well, have fun!" Vanilla said, returning to cleaning the House.
"Fire, huh? Maybe we should look around a fireplace?" Amy asked.
"That's a good idea. I'll look around in my room." Cream said.
"I'll see if there's anything hidden in the lounge room." Shadow said.
"I'll check out the kitchen." Amy said.
"Why the kitchen?" Shadow asked.
"Just a hunch." She replied, seeing Maria motion for her. 
"Arrgh!" Vanilla yelled.
"What is it?" Amy asked.
"This oven won't ever open!" Vanilla cried.
Amy noticed an imprint similar to the one on the chandelier on the oven.
"Well, um, maybe you should go ask Eggman." Amy said. 
"You know, I think I will." Vanilla said, going upstairs.
Cream and Shadow walked over to Amy.
"We couldn't find anything." Cream said.
"I did. Come one." Amy told them, placing the locket on the oven. A secret passageway opened!
"Fire! The oven!" Cream exclaimed.
"Let's go down." Shadow said. The three of them crawled through it.
"So, this is what the cellar looks like." Amy said.
"It's really creepy in  here." Cream said. The group noticed blue, red, and yellow plush toys in a pile on the ground.
"Look!" Shadow said. There was a tethered ring on a ledge. It had a bunch of numbers on it.
"Does that say 1922?" Amy asked.
"That's when Soleanna was first formed." Shadow explained.
"Hey, isn't there a picture in the hallway of the Princess and the Duke?" Cream asked.
"Yeah. Why?" Shadow asked.
"Maybe there's something hidden behind there!" Cream said. "After all, it does have 1922 painted in the background."
"Let's go!" Amy said. The trio raced to the hallway. They made sure no one was looking, and Shadow took the painting off the wall. There was a note behind it. Cream took it out.
"Beleathered and clasped, the one place where Yesterday always follows Tomorrow." Cream read.
"Wonder what that means." Amy said.
"Maybe it's a book?" Shadow asked.
"Maybe." Amy replied.
Shade and Knuckles made an announcement to everyone at dinner.
"We're leaving to Angel Island tonight." Knuckles said.
"We need to see if the Master Emerald has been stolen. We should be back soon." Shade said.
"Cool." Tails said.
"Hey, Amy. Um, will you go out with me?" Sonic asked, walking over to her.
Cream and Shadow left, looking for more clues.
"Um, sure. Why not?" Amy replied.
After Amy left, Cream went to the school library.
"Um, Zeta, what book does yesterday always follow tomorrow?" Cream asked the librarian robot.
"The...dictionary.." Zeta replied.
Cream went to look for dictionaries, and found the oldest one there. She opened it, and it was hollowed out.
"There's another puzzle piece!" Cream exclaimed, holding up a small trinket. She put it, and the old dictionary in her bag, and ran off to tell Shadow.
Shadow and Rouge were talking.
"Look, I know I've been pretty awful lately, but I'm...." Rouge began.
"It's fine." Shadow replied. 
"Let's go eavesdrop on Eggman. Maybe we can find some hidden tresure!" Rouge said.
You have no idea, thought Shadow.
Eggman was on the phone in his office.
"Everything is under control." he said to someone. "Yes, yes. They have all almost forgotten Blaze. The hour approaches. Prepare the ingredients for the elixir." Eggman hung up.
What in the world?! Rouge thought.
"Soon, soon. In time, we shall all drink from the Cup." Eggman was patting Orbot and Cubot. He put Cubot on the shelf where the keys were. Shadow and Rouge quickly went into Rouge's room.
"Now do you believe me about Blaze?" Rouge asked.
"Yeah." Shadow said, leaving.
"Hey, wait! Where are you going?" 
"Somewhere."
Cream ran into Shadow.
"Sorry! Guess what, I found another puzzle piece." Cream told him.
"Cool. Let's tell Amy." Shadow said.
In an hour, Amy and Sonic returned.
"I had a good time." she told him.
"So did I." he replied.
"But, I don't think we're quite right for each other. After all, you are three years older." Amy said.
"My thoughts exactly. Friends?" Sonic said.
"Friends." Amy replied. They shook hands.
"We really need to compare notes." Shadow told her. Cream and Shadow explained what happened.
"So....something seriously messed up is happening with Blaze, and Eggman is looking for the treasure to?" Amy asked.
"Yep." Cream replied. "But the good news is, I found a puzzle piece."
"Well, at least we're one step closer to finding the truth." Amy said.
