Sonic and Amy went deep underground but the deeper they go down the stairs, it was hard to see in the dark. But their iPhone6 had a flashlight to use.

"Eww....I hate spider webs. Man, what's wrong with having two legs when spiders have eight?" Sonic shudders from passing through dusty spider webs.

"Well who knows, Sonic. But we need to find a way so we can get back" Amy said. They both passed by old prison cells in the palace and out of some doors.

"Perhaps this is some old ancient dungeon or the catacombs" Sonic said.

"Possibly. Let me take a picture" Amy turned on the camera in her iPhone6. She took a few pictures of the room.

"Okay, we got a few pictures. Let's get out of this place. These creepy-ass spiders are creeping me out now" Sonic said.

"Yes. Let's try that way" Amy points to the stairs in the dungeon. The two hedgehogs headed there. They looked up to see non-mobian bats sleeping.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa.....let's not shine our lights on them. They don't like it" Sonic said.

"Yeah. Let's not get them very pissed off" Amy turned the light off, heading up the stairs with Sonic.

Sonic's ears perked up when he hears a water running but it didn't sound like a waterfall, "Hey, I hear water. But it doesn't sound like a river or waterfall"

"Then what is it?" Amy asked.

"It sounds like a tunnel or something, as if we are near or under water" Sonic said, "Weird, water doesn't.....bounce?"

"Bounce?" Amy said.

"That's what I can hear. This really doesn't make any sense" Sonic said.

"Let's have a look" Amy said. They headed inside to find an aquatic base, looking very different from the rest of the temple.

"Huh? This place looks.....High-Tech" Sonic said and takes some pictures with his iPhone6, "I've never seen anything so....watery. But round waters that bounce?" Sonic said, pushing the anti-gravity water ball.

The water ball then began floating around and then bounces around the room to the hedgehogs' surprise.

"Okay....weird" Amy said.

"Tell me about it. If only water were in outer-space it would float and turn round like a sphere" Sonic said.

"I remember a photo of space cadets floating in a space station where a drink became a sphere" Amy said.

"Yeah. Anyways, let's see if they have aquatic mammals or fishes or something" Sonic said.

"Sure" Amy said.

The teacher and the classmates were also in the Aquatic Base but they still haven't found Sonic or Amy, "I hope they're okay. It's been 2 hours" Nebula said.

"We'll find them, Nebs. I'm sure they'll make it out okay" Shadow said.

"I hope you're right" Nebula said.

Blaze looked through the window seeing fishes swimming pass them, "I wonder how they make these water ball thingies float and bounce like there's no gravity" Silver said to Blaze.

"I heard some say that some sort of technology is used or magic is doing this" Blaze said.

"Heh, at least Sonic isn't doing it" Silver said.

"Would he keep them up all day?" Blaze asked him.

"I guess no" Silver said.

They looked around the aquatic base. Rouge was using her sharp bat ears to hear the missing hedgehogs' footsteps but got nothing, "I still don't hear their footsteps"

"That's because they're not in the aquatic base. Perhaps your sonar has gone batty" Knuckles said.

"No, let me listen" Rouge said. Listening again, this time she heard quiet footsteps, "Wait, I hear something"

"I'm telling you, your sonar has gone batty" Knuckles said.

"Shut up!" Rouge slaps Knuckles in the back head, "My ears never lie. I hear them coming from there" Rouge points to the tunnel to the right.

"Then I'll go check on them" Knuckles said and ran to where Rouge pointed, "And don't ever slap me like that again, bat woman!" he growled. Rouge just chuckled and watched the red echidna searching for Amy and Sonic.

Amy and Sonic were walking in the tunnel to find a way to get out. That was until Sonic heard something, "Ames, do you hear something?" Sonic asked Amy.

"I think someone is here" Amy said.

"Let's find out who it is" Sonic said. The hedgehogs followed the sounds of Knuckles running in the tunnel until it got louder, "Get ready" Sonic whispered.

"Yes" Amy stands in position. Sonic made a water ball hover to him ready to throw it when the footsteps got closer. Then Knuckles showed himself for the two, "AAHH!!! HOLD IT!!!" Knuckles saw Sonic's water power.

"Oh, crap!" Sonic accidently dropped his water on Knuckles, "Whoopsie" he said nervously, "Uhh....glad to see you, Knuckles"

"Same too" Knuckles growls, squeezing the water from his dreadlocks.

"We thought you were a stalker" Sonic said.

"I am not a stalker, Sonic. Now both of you follow me if you wanna get back to the others" Knuckles said.

"Goodness. Not happy to see us? It's like you missed us" Sonic said sarcastically.

"First, you soaked me" Knuckles said.

"He didn't do it on purpose, Knuckles!" Amy glared, "Next time you start losing your temper again I'll squeeze you so hard with my plant vines! UNDERSTAND?!?!" she growled angrily in Knuckles' face.

"Okay then!" Knuckles gulped.

"Let's just go back to the others" Sonic said, following Knuckles and Amy.

"What are you yelling at, Knuckles?" Rouge flies in, "Amy? Sonic? You guys are alive!"

"Yes and we got some pictures for our studies" Amy said.

"Good. We have been worried about you guys" Rouge gave them both a hug.

"Aww...did you miss us?" Amy said.

"Well, at least we wanted to know if you were alright" Rouge said.

"I never thought you would be so concerned Rouge. That's kinda new besides your obsession with jewels" Sonic said.

"It's just something I'm trying to control, Big Blue. Now let's keep moving" Rouge said.

"Sure" Amy said and the four walk together.
