Chapter Text
It is evening in the Emerald Hill Zone, the tranquil sounds of the waves, the soft breeze in the air, it’s hard to believe a S.O.S signal came from a place like that, the tornado-2 then lands of an empty space on the ground, as Sonic hops off the Tornado and start stretching himself, sore from being sitting for so long.
“Ah! Finally, I was getting bored from just looking at the landscape!” Sonic looks around at Emerald Hill, no sights of attacks, no one running in panic, he then activates the watch on his wrist. “Jewel? Are you sure the signal came from this place? It barely looks scratched, just old and nice Emerald Hill Zone, I can even feel smell the Breeze of the Ocean!”
Jewel voice came through the watch, her voice worried but still well-mannered as always “It says that it is coming from a nearby cave, north of you...maybe it’s a trap...?”
Sonic starts running towards north, looking for the cave where the signal may be coming from . “Why would it be a trap? Eggman is not the kind of making a trap without sending me an invitation or making a big show before it , maybe he should send flowers and chocolates next time.”
“The signal didn’t have any further details, only asked for help, although it could’ve been an emergency call, but still if the person had time to send it shouldn’t they have at least who they were? Then again-”
Jewel sigh, then speak again, a little worried. “Just don’t get caught, the restoration and the world still need you if something is to happen, since Amy, Tails and Knuckles are on their own adventures, we can’t risk have you out of commission.”
“If that’s a trap, I’ll find out right now! Also don’t worry, if something happens to me, I always find a way to overcome it.” Sonic tells Jewel as turns the watch off and enters the cave looking around for some kind of trap or Enemy lurking around, he then shouts out with a smirk in his face “Mister or Miss trap? I came for a visit!”
As Sonic goes further into the cave, he can seem a dimly light in the end of the cave, the walls have scratches everywhere, a battle happened here, he keeps walking inside, when he finds a little handheld computer on the floor, making the faint light from before, it seems to have little power left, Sonic then grab it from the floor and give a good look around it.
“That seems like the device used to send the signal...but who sent it...?” Sonic takes another look at the device, noticing a power button on it, Sonic then presses it, making the faint like shine a little better and in the screen reveal the icon of a Mobian Lynx head.
A soft and calm voice comes out the broken handheld “Greetings, my name is N.I.C.O.L.E. how I may help you?” N.I.C.O.L.E. name and then an emote of her face looking rather sad appears on the screen, Sonic looked surprised he wasn’t expecting an AI coming out of the little computer, sure he had a recent experience with another AI who wasn’t exactly evil, but who knows if it isn’t just another trap by Eggman, but it doesn’t hurt to try help, hopefully.
“Hello Nicole, my name is Sonic, Sonic the hedgehog, Hero of Mobius, Fastest Hedgehog around, etc., etc. and I came here for a S.O.S signal...and by the state of this cave, I suppose it has something to do it with, right?”
“Indeed, I was the one that sent signal.” Nicole said with a hopeful yet down tone.
Sonic look around the cave, at the marks on the walls. “But why whoever did that, would go after a you? Do you have any important data within you? Why didn’t they take you?”
“Actually, they weren’t after me, but my Friend, the leader of the resistance group known as the Knothole Freedom Fighters, Sally Acorn.” The screen then displays a map, with a dot flashing in the middle. “But unfortunately, she has been captured...” N.I.C.O.L.E. said with a little sadder tone.
“That’s great!” Sonic says in an enthusiastic tone buffing his chest, while N.I.C.O.L.E. stayed completely silent while her screen displayed a question mark, he then rubbed the back of his head looking sheepish. “I meant...that now we got an adventure for ourselves! Alright let’s go save your friend!” Sonic then headed out of the cave with N.I.C.O.L.E. in his hand and a big smile on his face.
As Sonic runs through Emerald Hill Zone, he takes a look at N.I.C.O.L.E. screen to make sure he’s going for the right direction, the scenery of Westside Island is very beauty, a part of Sonic kind of missed that place, he felt a little nostalgic about it.
After some time, they reach a Zone Sonic never seen before to this point, Royal Hills Zone, a landscape similar to Green Hill Zone but with some ruins surrounded by oak trees, it is also highly patrolled by Eggpawns and some badnicks while in the foreground there is a Metallic base. Both Sonic and N.I.C.O.L.E. hide behind a bush up a hill, with Sonic peeking out his head looking at the Zone.
“Soooo...what’s this place? Looks like some kind of prison or headquarters made by the Eggman Empire?” Sonic look at Eggpawns patrolling around the zone, some of them carry shields along with them, and they walk in a pattern.
“ That is the Westside Island Egg Army Base also known as Ironlock Prison , it is a region controlled by the Eggman empire and one of his Egg bosses to ascertain his rule on the Island , it’s located in Royal Hills Zone, where the grand Acorn Kingdom castle used to be, but now only its ruins remain.”
“Egg army? Egg bosses? He's up to no good...but why Westside Island? We kicked him off the island a long time ago, why come back?” Sonic looks at N.I.C.O.L.E with a thoughtful face, he can’t understand why Eggman would do such a thing, but he must be after something important, Eggman may look foolish sometimes, but he’s definitely not stupid to go back to a failed plan without a reason to. “Well first things first, save your friend, ready for a ride?”
“What do you mean, a rid-?” Holding N.I.C.O.L.E. tight, Sonic rushes towards the Eggpawns running down the hill, her emote was of pure anxiety and fear, she wasn’t used to going straight into the enemy, much less having her teammates excited to confront them.
“Hey Egg trashes! Ready for a dance?” Sonic says as the Eggpawns look at him and start running into his direction, he smirked to the robots, he never gets tired of destroying Eggman’s robots, it was almost more of hobby than a duty to him.
He then curling up in his ball form and taking down three egg pawns in the way going through them, he jumps up using his homing attack on a Buzzbomber and finally stomping on a Eggpawn, clearing the area from patrolling.
“Hanging in there Nicole? Hope an AI can’t get motion sickness.” Sonic looks at N.I.C.O.L.E. screen and chuckle playfully. “Don’t tell me you can’t compute a little speed?”
“I think some of my wires got loose...is that what Organics call...Butterflies in the stomach?” N.I.C.O.L.E. says with her characteristic emotionless voice but her screen displaying a emote of her throwing up.
“Well, we are not over yet, why don’t you tell me more about all that stuff of Egg Army and Eggbosses, while I take care of those Eggpawns?” Sonic rush into more Eggpawns some of them hiding behind the ruin's walls.
Sonic jumps over one wall and stand over the head of Eggpawn, then drop dashing into his head, exploding it while N.I.C.O.L.E. starts to explains. “The Egg Armies are the Eggman Empire Branches that control regions that he has interest in, the first and only one that he has now, is that one we are in now, the two Eggbosses of that Army are the Pronghorn sisters, they are highly trained in close combat and use high tech weapons provided by Eggman himself.”
“Although he still only has one of those Egg armies, we collected some intel that tells us that he plans to create more of those around Mobius, just like the one he has here.”
“So, they’re the ones in command and took your friend? Good, time to give them a piece of Justice and get into Eggman’s nerves!” Sonic chuckles a bit to himself and runs towards the Base Entrance, A lot more Eggpawns appear around 50 of them, Sonic eyes shine bright and an energy wave form around him, it’s the boost, with it Sonic just rush towards them head first and exploding everything his way like it was nothing.
He then jumps and curl up into his ball form, making a hole through the enormous metal door and landing on the floor of the Base, now inside the base he looks at N.I.C.O.L.E. as the Alarm goes off. “Where now?”
While N.I.C.O.L.E. runs a mapping of the base, her screen displays a loading wheel, Sonic looks around the base, it’s definitely well taken care of, but It’s as blank and cold, Nicole then makes a beep sound. “Looks like Sally is very Close so we-”
“Close? So, it will be easier to find her! No time to waste, here we g-” Sonic Interrupts N.I.C.O.L.E but as he is about to turn, he hit his head with someone’s head and falls back, the other Mobian falls too. “Hey watch out! Don’t take heads first too seriously!”
“And what are you doing here?! that’s not Knothole or any safe place, that’s the Ironlock prison you’re running into!” The other Mobian, A female chipmunk with a tan fur, a red hair, blue eyes and wearing a blue closed vest, black shorts with white details, Goggles on top her head, white gloves with blue rings on it cuffs and blue boots with a white trim.
She places a hand at her head, and look at N.I.C.O.L.E. at Sonic’s hand then gasps. “By the Acorns, Nicole is that you?! What happened to you?! You look low on energy, are you alright???”
“Sally! I'm okay don’t worry, I’m at 10%, I'll just need some Recharging later.” N.I.C.O.L.E. says as her screen displays an emote of her smiling. “We were looking for you, glad that we found each other, wait, that means you did escape their prison?” the screen shows a question mark.
“Wait that’s your friend? Hey that was easier than I thought it would be, saved someone in record time.” Sonic place his hands on the hips and smile victoriously.
Sally rolls her eyes but smile a bit, finding his attitude a bit endearing in a way, Sonic then stretches his hand to Sally. “Sonic’s the name, speed is my game! Sorry for what I said before.” he then whispers to himself. “Although I was right...”
“Princess Sally Acorn, of the Kingd- I mean...Former Kingdom of Acorn...and leader of the Freedom Fighters, Sorry for getting angry at you too, I was out of myself.” Sally holds his hand and shake it firmly with a smile on her face.
“Thanks for bringing Nicole to me, I wouldn’t know what to do without my loyal advisor.” Sonic hands N.I.C.O.L.E. back to Sally and she gives a big smile to her digital friend.
“And yes, Nicole, I have escaped the prison, remember my promise? While I'm the leader, the Freedom Fighters wouldn’t lose anyone else...even myself...” Sally frowns a bit, something seems to be clouding her mind.
Sally then shakes her head to gather her thoughts in order, with a more serious voice Sally look at Sonic. “But now it’s no time for introductions, the guards will soon notice that I have gone missing and will go after me, we need to go-”
suddenly a bunch of Mobians wearing military clothes and helmets with the Eggman empire symbols surround the three, they have modified Wispons and their composure is meticulous.
A path opens between the Soldiers, with a growing sound of clicking heels steps, from there appears the Eggboss of the Region, A female mobian pale green Pronghorn, wearing a grey Eggman Empire uniform, The Eggboss face is as hard to read as it is hard to not feel a chill in the spine from her cold expression, she walks towards Sally with her arms crossed behind the back.
“Clove...you won’t get me into those cells again...” Sally says gritting her teeth and clenching her fists.
“That’s what you said before I captured you back in that Emerald Hill Zone cave, why it would be any different now, Princess?” Clove keeps her calm demeanor, looking down on Sally.
Sonic look at both of them with a raised eyebrow, he then smiles and speak in a joking tone “Hey, I'm starting to think both of you have a bone to pick, but don’t worry Princess, I'll make quick work of that Eggman wannabe!” Sonic smirks and crack his knuckles.
Clove turns and look at Sonic, she looks scared and intimidated by his presence in the base “Sonic the Hedgehog??? The one that defeat Dr. Eggman many times before?!” Sonic smirks and puff his chest, full of himself.
Sally then Notices something slowly going down towards Sonic, she then runs towards him and pull him aside. “Watch out!”
The Grabber Badnick then grabs Sally instead and hold her hostage up in the ceiling, looking down at Sonic and say in a desperate tone. “Run away to Knothole and find the other Freedom Fighters!”
Sonic look up at Sally and smirks “Running is my deal, but not running away, don’t worry Princess, I'll make sure she puts you down, willingly or not!” Sally rolls her eyes and say in annoyed tone. “Don’t be so stubborn! She will-”
Sonic interrupts Sally, saying as he winks to her. “Chill Princess, I have done that many times before!”
He then looks back at Clove, his expression turning serious. “Let her go, we just managed to find her!”
Clove then smirks and say “And why should I? Eggman would reward me well for getting Both the Leader of the Freedom Fighters and his Archenemy.” she then pulls out a staff from her back, which reveals an energy blade, making a scythe. “If you want her back, you will have to break through me.”
“Good, I was longing for fight since I woke up today...” Sonic does a little warm up, stretching his legs and then tapping his left foot on the floor, as if they’re thrilling to get to the fight already, he then gets into a stance and look to Clove, his voice seems excited. “...And you best bring your best, Rotten egg boss lady.”
Sonic them takes the initiative and rushes towards Clove, she swings the scythe towards him causing him to dodge back, which open up for Clove to sweep his legs and make Sonic fall on the ground, she uses the opportunity and once again swings the scythe, Sonic spindashes, making the Scythe clash with his spikes, both try to push each other away until it launches Sonic away from her and Clove stumbles back.
As Sonic gets back up on his feet, He smiles and look at her “Hehe, didn’t had a fight this good since I fought Shadow in the Colony ARK!” both then rush towards each other and clash again.
Sally looks down at them clashing and then at the Badnick holding her up. “Nicole, we have to do Something, get me out of here.”
N.I.C.O.L.E screen shows a coding lines in her screen. “I’m trying to get through the Badnick’s firewall, it may take some time.”
Sally looks down at the fight again and frown. “Try to go faster, I have a bad feeling about that...”
Clove then tries to hit Sonic multiple times but he keeps dodging her attacks. “Hey, try to make it a challenge at least, that’s soooo easy!”
Clove looks a little angrier now, but keeping her calm demeanor, Clove tries to attack again but as he dodges it, she uses the other end of the scythe to shove Sonic down the floor, she then places her foot on his chest, making sure he won’t use the spindash this time, she smirks looking down at Sonic. “How’s that for a Challenge?”
“Control over badnick, complete” N.I.C.O.L.E. says as the once red eyes of the badnick now shine purple, sally smiles and look down. “Good job Nicole, drop me down...now!” The grabber badnick then drops Sally, as she falls down at their direction, she uses her two feet to drop kick Clove away from Sonic.
“Why didn’t you run when I told you to do so?! Are you crazy or something???” Sally helps Sonic up holding his arms then places her hands on the hips, narrowing her eyes to him.
Sonic gets up and dust himself up, Sonic smirks facing Sally in the eye. “Sorry, when did you turned into my boss to order me around?”
Sally looks irritated and points at him. “I may not be your boss, but you can’t just play around in enemy territory! You know how much danger are you putting yourself in, no matter how fast you’re???”
“Hey, Speed is my second name! Well, actually it’s...” Sonic is interrupted by Sally putting her hand up as he looks at her with a serious look in her face.
“Doesn’t matter now, just don’t be so reckless, you’re not risking your safety, but mine’s and Nicole’s too, if you really want to help out, do as I say.” Sally says her voice as imponent as it can be.
Clove stands up, now clearly very pissed off with Sally getting in her way. “I swear...if I capture you two...I’ll make sure you two are directly sent to Eggman...” She tightens the grip on scythe and grit her teeth, looking at both Sonic and Sally.
Sonic and Sally look at each other “Truce?” Sally asks now with a calmer tone.
Sonic give her a thumb up “Truce.” then both get into a stance, Facing Clove.
Sally attaches N.I.C.O.L.E. to her boot cuff, then points her fist towards Clove and turning her arms around, making two blue solid holographic blades appear from her ring bracelets, Sonic crack his neck and get ready to jump into action, while Sally looks serious and focused, Sonic looks happy and excited, but both with one mission in mind, take down the Enemy in front of them.
“She may be good a blocking...but there must be a limit to how much she can take...” Sally says while whispering to Sonic and keeping an eye to Clove.
“Alright, I hope you can keep up with me, Princess!” Sonic says as Sally rolls her eyes.
Both of them run towards Clove, which has her guard up in case they try anything, Sonic is on the lead due to his speed, He then Spindash towards Clove which uses her scythe to block the attack and again both of them clash, sending Sonic back and Clove stumbles back, Sally then start attacking with clove groaning as she starts finding hard to keep blocking their attacks, Sally steps away and letting Sonic roundhouse kick the scythe, Leaving Clove’s defense open.
But before she can try to recover, Sally jumps towards her and with the blades knock the Scythe away from her hands, she then crouches letting Sonic step on her back and then he uses the homing attack on Clove, sending her flying towards her Egg Army soldiers that hold her, she groans in pain with her eyes closed.
Sonic stand up and cross his arms alongside Sally which has victorious smile on her face, she then looks at him. “Good job, maybe I was wrong about you, although you looked really slow for someone supposedly so fast.” she nudges his arm softly and chuckles a little, turning her ring-blades off.
“Miss Clove!” One of the soldiers, a male black mobian dog with a red bandana, says with a desperate tone, he then looks as the other soldiers and nod to them. “Ready men!” them all point their wispons towards Sonic and Sally.
Sally start panting, she then looks down at N.I.C.O.L.E. at her boot cuff “Nicole? Any ideas? I don’t think we can fight them all now...”
N.I.C.O.L.E. beep and say in a little defeated tone “We got only 50.00% chances of escaping now, we can use of Sonic speed to do it.”
“Well, let’s make it before it turns to 0%” Sonic then holds Sally in his arms and start running away towards the door with Sally putting on her goggles because of the wind, he looks at hole he made earlier and smiles. “Brace yourself ladies!”
“Fire!” the Dog soldier yells out, as the other soldiers start firing towards Sonic and Sally, Sonic dodging the shoots, he then jumps in the head of a soldier and propel himself up, jumping through the hole, and then making his way to the forest.
The Soldiers open the base’s door and look at the blue blur escaping, the soldier from before yell out to his teammates “AFTER THE-”
“No!” Clove says as she gets back on her feet, the soldier is about to say something, but she gives him a steely narrowed eyes look. “I said no, we will only waste resources trying to catch them...and I need to check on my sister anyways...regroup, fix the door and keep on watch if they try to Return...I'll report what happened to Dr. Eggman...”
At the forest, everything is calm, the only thing that can be heard are the insects, Leafs and Sonic footsteps, He is still caring Sally in his arms and running, he keeps looking forward but now and then he takes a look at Sally to make sure she’s okay, Sally is looking at N.I.C.O.L.E. who seems to be out of energy now.
Sally then points to a crooked tree “Turn left on that tree!” with Sonic suddenly turns on the left and look at Sally.
“Why? There's something over there?” Sonic look at Sally and raise an eyebrow.
“I don’t want to ruin the surprise, do I?” Sally gives him a smile and look forwards at a hollowed out oak slide in an oak tree “Now go down there.”
“What are you taking me to an amusement park? Hope there’s popcorn machines there!” Sonic smirks playfully, then slides down the slide that has many loops, which then leads a haystack which both of them fall over it.
Sonic then looks forwards and see a village, in which some of the Villagers start surrounding the haystack, as Sally and Sonic get out of it and walk towards the crowd.
The people of Knothole start cheering, seeing that their leader and princess is safe and sound, some start dancing, others clap, but in general everyone is happy to see that she’s okay, their hopeful and inspiring leader is back.
“Welcome to Knothole Village, our little Sanctuary hidden from Dr. Eggman and his subordinate's rule.” she says with a smile on her face as she sees her people, her village and her friends are all there.
Sally turns to the cheering the crowd and smiles. “Fighters of Knothole! I have the pleasure to introduce you to the one that has saved me from Ironlock Prison! Sonic the Hedgehog!” She then points her hands to Sonic, as the crowd starts cheering him
“He’s a blue lightning! He goes from south to north in instants! He’s the fastest that there ever was!” Some in the crowd gasp and look shocked, Sally then looks at some children and speak in playfully way. “When you try to look at him running, he is already gone!” The children start to look in awe at Sonic.
“And would you look at that, thanks to you, everyone is happy now...and think I own you an apology for not trusting you, how about that?” Sally then remover her goggles, gets close to Sonic and give him a little kiss in the cheek.
Sonic blushes at that, he wasn’t expecting that, he wanted to say something or to sound confident now, but all he could do was stuttering some loose letters, he never felt so defenseless like he’s right now, He fought World Dictators and Gods, why did a girl get him like that?
Sally giggles at his reaction and place a hand at her hip. “But don’t get used to it, it’s limited” she then starts walking towards the village center and motions for Sonic to follow.
“W-wait I can’t stay for too long, I need to go check on my friends!” Sonic stands at the entrance, looking at Sally.
Sally then turns to Sonic, with a disappointed look and sigh “Can’t you even stay to celebrate a bit? Well, I understand if you need to go...it’s just that...we didn’t have a win against Dr. Eggman or Clove in so long... even a small one counts...”
She looks down at the floor, holding her hands behind her and softly kicking the floor “I- I mean we appreciate what you did...That’s why I said those things about you to everyone...”
Sally turns her back and whispering to herself. “I was so foolish...”
Sonic feels kind guilty for that, he then breath out and smile. “Alright, I suppose that no party is complete without me around! Fine I'll stay for dinner, but you better have Chili Dogs! Extra spicy.”
She turns to sonic and chuckle, glad that Sonic accepted to stay for a while.
“And I think that my friends can take of themselves...yeah, I won’t babysit them.” Sonic thinks about his friends, Tails, Amy and Knuckles wanted to have their own adventures without depending on him, it wouldn’t be fair to them.
Far in the crowd there’s two Mobians watching the scene unfold, a male and a female Mobian. “Do ya think he will be of good use here? If not at least he’s a cute Sugah-hog.” the female voice says.
While the male voice replies. “Zee Hedgehog? I could do whatever he does, and better!” He crosses his arms and mumble to himself.
Another male voice chimes in. “I don’t know about that, but at least he could help test some of my new inventions, I always wanted to test on friction!”
Back to Sally and Sonic, they are looking at the happy crowd, Sally gives him nudge on the arm. “It’s good to be recognized as hero, isn’t it?”
Sonic smirks and roll his eyes. “Please I already got cheered many...many...” Sonic seems surprised and shocked as he looks at the crowd, his eyes wide like if he saw something that he shouldn’t...or at least he thought he shouldn’t.
Sally rises an eyebrow and look at Sonic. “Uh hello...? You meant many times before? Hey...?” Sally then follows his gaze and see who he’s looking at then gasps, how did she not notice before?
Sonic slowly walks towards the crowd, he feels his heart beating slowly then fast again then slowly once again, could it be? After all those years? After all that happened? He looked for that person everywhere, anywhere, but just now found him.
“S-sonic is that...you...? By chaos...it’s been so long...” The figure walks towards Sonic, both of them seem like they saw a ghost, Sonic hands are trembling.
Sonic then embraces the figure, giving a tight hug, one so tight it could break ice cap zone barriers that only knuckles could do so, Sonic start stuttering. “I-I missed y-you so much...since the day I left you to fight Eggman’s robots...a-and never saw you again...”
The figure chuckles a bit and hug Sonic back, while smiling by seeing him again. “Do not worry...Nothing on Mobius will separate us now...Hedgehog’s Promise...”
“Thanks Uncle Chuck...” Sonic says in soft tone, happy that he could finally see his uncle that has taken care of him he was young and that for a moment, he thought he would never see ever again.
Sally watching from away, can’t help but let tears far from her eyes but still with a smile, it’s bittersweet moment for her, what if it was her dad? What if it was her mom? Her brother even, it would be nice to reencounter someone she was longing to find after so much time.
But she can’t lose hope, who knows maybe the newcomer can help her with that, she takes a deep breath clean the tears and walk to the two hedgehogs, and smile. “What a reunion, Sir Charles, you never told us you had a nephew?”
Uncle Chuck pull of the hug with Sonic and look at her with a sigh. “I never thought I would see Sonic again, unfortunately all I could do was hope he wasn’t captured by Robotnik, bringing him up in conversations...was hard for me...”
Sonic chimes in. “But what are you doing here Uncle Chuck? Last time I saw you, you were in Green Hill.”
“You see, my boy, before you and Sally were even born, I was knighted by her father and my friend, King Nigel Maximillian Acorn, as his royal inventor and scientist, but with time comes age and I had to retire, after you left to face Dr. Robotnik, I received a message from little Sally asking to help the Freedom Fighters, I couldn’t say no to my best friend daughter, especially after learning what happened to him...”
“Captured and imprisoned by the man, he trusted, his second in command...how could Robotnik do that to such a heartful and just king like Nigel is beyond me...”
“And we still didn’t find my dad nor advanced on the battle to liberate Westside Island from Eggman...” Sally looks down and shake her head, the memories of when she had to run away from the very kingdom she was destined to rule, now is only the shambles that are the Royal Hills Zone, but the worst part? She can’t even share this sorrow with her father, her mother or anyone so close to her.
Sonic then cross his arms and tap his feet “And why are you looking down? Now you got me to help and I always defeat the Fat-Headed Eggman, haven't’ you heard about it?”
Sally looked at him shocked. “A-are you helping us...? I thought you had friends to check and other things to do...?”
Sonic Smile and wave his finger. “Getting myself in adventure, kicking Eggman’s sore butt and saving a village and king at the same time? That's my call! No way I won’t!”
She smiles with hopeful look, her serious and steely look fading quickly, perhaps now the Freedom Fighters may have a chance to restore the kingdom and mostly important save Sally’s father, the Eggman Empire may have won many battles against the Resistance seeking for peace, but now it’s their call to win not only the battle but the war, she can see hope growing inside herself, Sally knowns what’s has to be done, now it’s the time that the Freedom Fighters would finally free the island from the Empire grasp on their Freedom.
