FADE UP: Outside the hut –
Tails is drinking a Yoo-Hoo chocolate drink while looking out onto the sunrise, he was still depressed about not seeing Li Moon. Then he heard Sonic griping about not wanting to go. Then Sally pushed him out.
Sonic: Oh, come on! Heroes need sleep! Sally!
Tails: I thought you liked the lions and the woods.
Sonic turned and faced him.
Sonic: Yeah, we could be out sitting on our butts and not do anything for this trip!
Tails: Sonic, we didn’t come here to just enjoy the woods, we came to help the villagers with this lion.
Sonic: Yeah, but we could be hunting for him for a good long time, ON OUR ENTIRE TRIP!
Tails: Sonic, we’ve got a month. I’m sure we’ll get this lion.
Sonic: Yeah. But when?!
Tails: Patience is always rewarded, Sonic.
Sonic: Uggh…you always say that.
Tails: It’s true.
Sonic (calling): I need more sleep, Sally!
Sally (O.S.): We’re about to head out!
Tails: Sonic, into the jeep. We’ve gotta get to that bait and check in with the villagers about the lion.
Sonic began grumbling and got into the back of the jeep. Tails turned to see Sally, Amy, and Cream in their safari clothes heading towards him.
Tails: Are we ready for this?
Sally: We sure are.
Cream: But I don’t want to hunt.
Sally (smiling): Don’t worry, Cream. We’ll be enjoying the nature that surrounds us while Sonic and Tails hunt for the lion.
Sonic jumped out of the jeep and faced Sally.
Sonic (freaked out): WHAT?!! You get to explore the wild while we—while we…
Knuckles then slapped Sonic from the side, paralyzing him.
Sonic: Thanks Knux.
Knuckles raised his arm again but Sonic stopped him.
Sonic: No, no, I’m good.
Tails: Sonic, let’s get a move on.
Sonic (annoyed): Oh, alright.
Then Sonic got into the jeep, then Sally came up to Tails.
Sally (to Tails): How’s Li Moon?
Tails: I couldn’t get a signal…but last time I checked she was doing fine.
Then he looked out onto the grassland and sighed.
Sally: What’s wrong?
Tails: It’s just that…
He went silent.
Sally: Tails?
Tails: I mean, I don’t see her much anymore, because we’re always busy, and because she’s in
Tails had a sad look on his face while looking out onto the grassland.
Sally: Tails, it’s alright. When we’re done here on our vacation and hunt, we’ll go out and see her.
Tails turned to face her.
Tails: You’d do that for me?
Sally (smiling): Anything for a friend.
Tails smiled and hugged Sally and she hugged him back. Sonic looked at them while they were hugging, he smiled.
Sally (smiling): Now go get that lion.
Tails let go of Sally and said: ‘All right, let’s move out.’
Tails got into the jeep and so did Knuckles. Tails cranked up the engine and looked at the three girls standing and waving at them.
Tails: Don’t wander too far while we’re gone.
Sally: We won’t.
Then Sonic waved as they drove off on the dirt road heading into the wilderness.
Amy (smiling): So, where are we going? Hmm, Sally? Hmm, hmm, Sally?
Sally (smiling): Don’t worry, girls. I’ve got a great place to go to.
The girls began to head out to explore while the jeep drove off.
FADE OUT – On the road – Sunrise
The jeep cruised on the dirt road and there was a bunch of wildlife to be seen, Impala, Kudu, Giraffes, Gazelles and others.
Sonic (smiling): Sure is a neat variety of wildlife!
Tails (smiling): Yeah, I haven’t seen this much while driving.
They were silent for a moment and Sonic said:
Sonic: What’s the plan, Tails?
Tails: Well, the first thing is to get Intel about the lion, and then we have to check on the bait. And if we’re lucky, the killer might’ve found the bait and we’ll wait it out.
Knuckles: Don’t we have enough Intel?
Tails: We’ve got quite a bit, but there’s one more group of people that we still haven’t checked with yet.
Sonic: Okay. So, how much farther?
Tails: We got about an hour to get there. You know, all of the steep roads, thick brush, and hills.
Sonic: Okay, I guess I’ll turn in for a little while longer.
Sonic then got into a comfortable position and closed his eyes.
Tails (to Sonic): See you in an hour.
He then looked out onto the horizon and was aware that something might happen.
