Two weeks later, Sonic and Amy had settled into their new routine.



Since they were typically up half the night with the restless babies (mostly Rex because he was the rowdiest baby), one of them would take naps while the other would watch the babies.



Amy woke up to see Sonic, sitting on the floor with one of his socks on his hand while the babies were mesmerized by the little dance Sonic made the sock puppet do.



"Uh… if you see a crocodile, don't forget to scream." Sonic sang, his voice hoarse from having to sing for an hour.



Amy laughed. "That's not the words."



"Yes it is." Sonic replied. "It was in a movie."



"That doesn't mean it's the actual lyrics." Amy said.



Sonic motioned to the five hoglets. "Are they not entertained?"



Rex, Miyu, and Sora were giggling and smiling while Ally and Belle napped.



Amy shrugged. "Alright, as long as they're happy."

The next day was particularly exhausting for Sonic and Amy.



There was a huge storm that frightened the babies as well as their parents. The whole family had to stay at Tails' house since it was the furthest away from the beach.

By the next morning, Sonic and Amy were exhausted as they reached their (thankfully) still standing shack.



Sonic set Miyu, Ally, and Sora down.



Amy set Belle down beside the other three babies. "Where's Rex?"



"I'll go see if he's still at Tails' place." Sonic said, racing off.



Amy settled the babies into their playpen.



Sonic ran back in.



"Where's Rex?" Amy asked.



"I checked everywhere except for Eggman's island." Sonic said, panicking. "There's no way Rex made it all the way there by himself."



"Eggman could've kidnapped him." Amy replied.



Sonic turned to run out the door when Dr. Eggman, holding Rex, walked in.



Amy got her hammer and Sonic got ready to spin dash Eggman.



"You can have the little pincushion back." Dr. Eggman said, handing Rex to Sonic. "This little rodent showed up at my house, ate all of my chili dogs, and spin dashed Orbot and Cubot. Do I show up and trash- nevermind."



Sonic looked at Rex, who had chili all over his face and head spines. "Why are you just giving him back?"



"Because I'd hate to get on the wrong side of Amy's maternal instincts." Dr. Eggman replied.



Sonic looked at Amy, who was still holding her hammer. "I can't comment. Run. Now."



Dr. Eggman eased out the door, then ran for his life.



"Okay, maybe we should get Tails to make communicators for the kids." Sonic said. He handed Rex to Amy.



Amy hugged Rex. "Aww, Mommy was so worried."



Sonic ruffled Rex's head spines. "That's my boy."



"Don't encourage him to run off again." Amy said.



"I'm sorry." Sonic replied.

Tails put the last communicator on Sora's wrist. "There. Now there's no small parts or anything, so don't worry about choking hazards. The elastic is cushioned by the thick, soft cloth."



"Thanks, Tails." Sonic said. "Now can you convince Amy that it's okay to let them fight Eggman in eight years?"



Tails looked at Amy, who was holding her hammer. "I don't want to mess with Amy."



Sonic sighed. "Fine, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it."

AN: Sonic was singing the Mr. Bean: the ultimate disaster movie version of "row your boat". Sora's name means sky and is not related to the gold hedgehog on my deviant art account (boom Sora has sky blue fur/spines and emerald green eyes.

Ally (dark pink fur/spines, light green eyes) and Belle's (dark blue fur /spines with emerald green eyes) names are homages to two online friends of mine. birth order is Ally, Belle, Miyu, Rex, and Sora.
