Chapter Text
Team Rose was on a mission to find Big’s frog, again. The frog had hopped away into the forest and Big lumbered after him. So the team had tagged along, Amy reasoning that multiple eyes could find their small companion faster.
“Froggy?” Big called, bounding ahead of them. “Where are you?”
Cheese the Chao and Chocola the Chao flew overhead, trying to spot him from the air. Behind Amy, Vanilla and her daughter Cream also searched.
“Amy, how often does this happen?” Vanilla asked.
“We’ve managed to get it down to two times a week,” Amy replied.
“Oh my,” Vanilla said.
“We can usually find Froggy pretty quickly,” Cream said. “Cheese found him last time. We like to make a game of it!”
“He can certainly move quickly,” Vanilla said, referring to Big as he pushed his way through the underbrush far ahead of them.
“Froggy! There you are!” they heard him call.
Then a bright green light blasted from the brush.
“Oh!” Vanilla exclaimed, covering her mouth.
Amy had her hammer at the ready and Cream took to the air.
“Stay back mom, we can handle this,” Cream said.
The pair headed to the brush, examining it. Several of the leaves had been charred but there didn’t seem to be any fire.
“Big?” Amy called.
“Mr. Big?” Cream said. “Are you ok?”
A shape moved up ahead and Amy pushed forward to it.
It turned to them.
Amy stopped in surprise, “What the?”
