An aerial view of the island was seen as we see a jeep riding in the middle of the jungle.

Inside the jeep, Sojourer and Enerjax was riding inside the jeep with a caged chao inside.

"By the way, did you thank the pilot for flying us back her?" Enerjax asked

"Of course." Sojourer said

"And paid him?"

"Yes!"

(Cell Phone rings)

Enerjax answers his cell phone.

"Yeah." Enerjax said, on phone

Enerjax glanced at the chao who stuck his tongue out at him.

"Yeah, we got it. We're on our way there now. Okay. Ciao."

Enerjax hung up his phone and looks from the chao. Sojourer looked at enerjax, then the road. Enerjax noticed.

"That was the boss." Enerjax confirmed

"No shit." Sojourer replied

"Well, then, why'd you give me that look like you wanted to know?"

"I was just curious, asshole."

"Yeah. Okay."

They continued driving on.

The plane was seen landing in the front of Angel Island. Cream and Tails exited the plane and started scanning the island. It was a huge jungle around the island.

"Geez." Cream said

"I know." Tails agreed

"No, I'm talking about the trees. There's so many of them."

Tails glances at her. They soon started walking.

"By the way, was that true what amy said? You con mobians out their money and sleep with womens to get a ride? Am I hearing that right?"

Tails deeply sighed before stopping and turning to cream. He spreads his arm out.

"Okay. Do it."

"What?"

"Look, I got the same black eye from amy, alright? You wanna black my eye some more? Go ahead." Tails said

Cream sighs.

"I wasn't thinking of going for your eye."

Tails lowers his arms."

"You mean you're not gonna hit me?"

Cream shakes her head and looks from him.

"No."

Tails sighs relieved. Cream looks at him.

"Head or gut?"

Tails eyes her confused.

"What?"

Cream smirks.

"The truth hurts tails. Head or gut?"

Tails closes his eyes tightly before taking a deep breath.

"Gut." Tails whispered

"What?"

"Gut!"

Cream quickly punched him in the gut.

"Ohh!"

Tails grasps his stomach in pain. Cream strokes his back.

"You okay?" Cream asked

"No. The wind is outta me."

"Good. (pats his back) Let's go."

Tails groans and follows her.

Ext.

Later, Cream and Tails were walking through the middle of the jungle where lots of endangered species were at. Cream kept her fear in check as tails noticed.

"Scared?"

"Shut up. Are you?"

"Shut Up."

"Alright then. Quit asking me."

Suddenly, cream sensed some soft rustling beyond the bushes. Tails noticed.

"What is it?"

"Shh!"

Cream waves tails to follow her as they started walking up. The rustling got louder before a dangerous rattlesnake came out of nowhere with open fangs. Cream obviously saw it before grabbing it which startled tails. Tails saw the snake.

"Shit, we almost got bitten."

The snake struggles as cream grips it tightly which it hisses.

"No, you think?" Cream said, sarcastically

(Gun cocks)

Cream looked in front of her and saw someone aiming a pistol at them. The figure has on a black and white tank top and black leather pants. She also wore shades to cover her eyes and wore shoes.

"Who the hell are you" Cream asked

"Drop the snake." The figure said

"Sure."

With a swift movement, cream threw the snake at the figure. The figure saw it and caught the hissing snake with its right hand. The figure puts the snake on the branch of a tree as it crawled across the tree. The gun was still trained on them. Cream noticed.

"Uh, we dropped the snake. You can put the gun down now." Cream said

The figure scoffs.

"You are in no position to make requests. Who are you anyway?"

Cream approaches.

"Wait a minute. I asked you first."

"Stay back."

Cream stops in her track with her hands up.

"Okay."

They all stood there motionless.

"Who are you?" The figure asked again.

"My name is Cream Rabbit, Station Square Paper Delivery Girl."

The figure laughed.

"A delivery girl?"

"Yeah. Is there a problem with that?" Cream asked, almost offended

"Did I say it was a problem?"

"No, I'm just saying."

"Alright, then. (to tails) What's your name, kid?"

"Tails Prower and don't call me kid."

"Okay, shorty."

"Don't call me that either."

"T2?"

"That's...better."

"Okay."

The figure lowers the weapon and takes off its shades showing the eyes.

"Names Tikal. (extends hand) Nice to meet you."

Cream takes it.

"Pleasure's mine."

Tails shakes her hand.

"What's this all about?" Cream asked

"Oh, we've been getting scavengers of DL Echidnas who've been scattering the island. Why are you guys here?"

"Something of mine got stolen and brought here. I want it back."

"And...what is it?"

"A chao by the name of cheese."

Tikal's expression was shock.

"A chao?"

"Yeah. And by your expression, I think something bad is about to happen."

"Yeah. Could you move to the side a minute?"

Cream and Tails moved to the side before tikal aimed her pistol at the bushes. She shot a few rounds at the bushes.

"Hey, hey, hey! Stop shooting! Goddamnit!"

Tikal recognized the voice.

"Knuckles?"

The red echidna came out the bushes wearing a cowboy hat, a grey coat, light grey pant with belt buckle, and shoes. He hed holes in his hat due to tikal's shooting.

"Yeah. Couldn't you tell that it was me?"

"I was busy."

"Doing what?"

Cream stepped in.

"She was, uh, taking care of the wildlife, you know. She saved our life when a vicious snake tried to bite us. But she didn't kill it. If that's what you're thinking because, uh, she put that thing back on the tree."

Knuckles paused and nods.

"Oh."

"And I assume that you're gonna ask me and my companion, uh, friend here who we are, right? Well, my name is Creamella Rabbit. In plain english, Cream Rabbit. My partner, uh, friend--"

Tails cuts her off.

"My name is Miles "Tails" Prower, but don't call me that. Sometimes they call me MTP but don't call me that either. (extends hand) Call me Tails.

Knuckles takes it.

"Pleasure to meet ya. You know who I am, right?"

Tails looked at him dumbfounded.

"Uhhh, Knuckles...Echidna?"

Knuckles nods. Cream jabs Tails. Tails looks at her.

"What?"

"You know his name. Quit playing."

Knuckles approached Tikal.

"So what are they here for?"

"A missing chao."

"Emerald?"

"No. A chao. You know, one of the little guys."

"Ohh."

"Well, we gotta keep moving. It's not safe out here."

Cream and Tails turned to Tikal upon hearing that.

"What do you mean it's not safe?"

"It's a lot of crazy hunting DL Echidnas who always wants a fight or a gunfight around here."

"Well, a fight is fine with me. But no guns. I hate guns."

"Why? It's the best defensive artillery." Tikal pointed out

"It's also the most dangerous and it kills a lot of people. I don't like that." Cream said

Tails looked at her.

"I didn't know that you didn't like guns."

"You didn't ask."

"What if your best friend got killed? Would you use a gun?"

"No."

"Never?"

"Never."

"Shit, santa clause would shoot a guy to protect his friends."

Cream eyes tails.

"Do I look like santa claus to you? Do I look like santa claus to you?"

Tails shakes his head.

"Okay, quit bringing it up. (to tikal) Where can I get a drink around here?" Cream asked

"Yeah, I'm thirsty as hell."

"You're drunk as a pig."

"Your momma."

Cream looks at tails, then points at him.

"You shut your mouth about my mother, dickhead."

"Oooh, dickhead. I'm flattered.

"You better be."

"Guys, are you done?" Tikal finally spoke.

"Yeah." Cream and Tails said, unison

"Alright, let's go." Tikal said

They continued walking across the jungle of Angel Island.
