Summary
In Tails' house, Amy is crying her eyes out over being unable to find her piko hammer. Tails, Knuckles and Sticks are worried about Amy, but Sonic is getting uncomfortable and suggests they could just get her another hammer. However, Amy snaps and she shakes Sonic vividly while screaming that her hammer is who she is and without it, she is nothing, which scares Tails and Knuckles. They try to figure out where the piko hammer is and Amy recalls she last saw it on the beach when fighting the Big Boy which makes her worry it is getting dirty. Tails tries to cheer her up by suggesting her hammer could be stuck on the Big Boy, meaning it is still clean, but it makes Amy more concerned as that means Dr. Eggman has it. However, the breaking point come as Knuckles suggests her hammer could have fallen off the Big Boy into the ocean, causing Amy to freak out over it being lost at sea.

Had enough, Sticks sends Sonic, Knuckles and Tails out to find the piko hammer while she calms Amy down. Despite both finding this uncharacteristic of her, Sticks tries to help Amy by taking her out to try out her own arsenal to find a placeholder for her hammer, despite Amy claiming nothing can replace it. Meanwhile, the boys begin their own searches; Sonic investigates the sea, mountains, forests and caverns, Knuckles finds several hammer-related, but unfortunately inadequate, objects, and Tails tries buying a new hammer but cannot find one in the right size.
