      Again... It happened again... He lost it again... And he's looking for it again... A vicious circle of Hell, in which he's stuck and forced to run in circles again, and again, and again. Without end or edge. This time his search led him to the factory, where he rushes through the doors in a panic, goes down to the basement out of breath and is in a hurry. A big, plump cat is looking for his little amphibian here, because his instincts told him so. He finds it. Only now he finds himself among a pile of garbage on the conveyor. And Big is standing behind the glass and just watching this. — FROOOOGGGIIIIII!!! He couldn't stand still and tried to do at least something. Knock out the glass with his bare hands, jump through it with his whole body and even kick it. But the glass was armored and therefore impenetrable. Only a couple of small cracks remained from his blows. At the same time, Big watched as his Froggy was almost crushed by a huge iron wheel for squeezing garbage. And then two iron pillars began to crush it. From what he saw, the big cat fainted with a sigh. Having quickly come to, he then notices a circular saw, like a sawmill. He faints again from fear, imagining how he is cut there. Then an iron flat wall, which, like an axe, cuts the garbage inside in half. A large squeezing square of six iron walls and paint to boot. At the last one, when Big had already closed both eyes and did not want to look at it, curiosity still got the better of him, removing a couple of fingers and taking a look with one eye, he faints again. And then, instead, flower pots with clean and ecological soil came out, only without plants or seeds inside them. Tired of holding on and barely getting up, catching his breath, Big ran to the conveyor belt from where the flower pots came out. All these pots with lands seemed to look the same. However, among them stood out a pot with a frog's paw sticking out of it. Big could no longer hold back his tears from what he saw and fainted again. This time he lay in a faint for a very long time. When he came to and remembered what had happened, he ran into the warehouse and searched for a long time among the flower pots for the one with Froggy's Paw sticking out. His intuition did not fail him and he found it right away, and... Yes... Again he fainted from excitement. How did this happen?

The day before

      As always, everything was calm at first and, as always, Big, with his frog on his shoulders, sat near a tree and fished, which is what he always did. Only it seemed like the time was right, but the fish weren't biting. Maybe his intuition was failing from old age? Maybe he miscalculated the time? Or maybe Eggman poisoned the water and all the fish died. Is that why there are no bites? The third version seemed much more truthful to him. For the sake of interest, he decided to put his fishing rod aside for now and go and examine the river from several sides. — Stay close, Froggy! — the big cat patted the frog on the head. Big walked further along the river until he came across the sounds of gurgling. He walked further towards the sound, looked out from the bushes and bulged his eye sockets considerably. Although they were always bulging, and he had no eyelids above his eyes. But everything he saw made him seriously surprised. — I knew it. — he said sternly to himself, gently took Froggy off his shoulder and put him on the ground. — You sit here for now, Froggy, and don't run away. I'll be back soon. — he added and ran behind the bushes. But Froggy didn't listen to his big friend and, seeing a mosquito flying past, galloped after it. Sometimes he stuck out his tongue to catch the mosquito, but he missed and had to chase it. At this time, Big grabbed two robots with his bare hands and threatened to throw them into the water, thereby causing them to short-circuit. — Please! — Don't ruin us! We're still too new and modern to switch off forever. We're just following Dr. Eggman's orders. — If you want to live, then stop poisoning the river with your oil chemicals and killing the fish! Otherwise... — Instead of saying the last words, he leaned them closer to the water, but almost pushed them off. — Okay, okay. Forgive us! We won't do it again! Instead of letting them go, Big leaned over them and pushed them back against the rocks. — Let's go somewhere else, Froggy, for now... — Noticing that Froggy was gone, he didn't have time to finish. — Froggy? No... No-no-no-no-no...! Not again! — he grabbed his head, started running through the bushes and searching in the grass. — Froggy, where are you? Froggy! Froggy! FROOGGYEEEE!!! — However, the cat's friend didn't respond or even croak. He had to trust his instincts and his intuition told him that Froggy was hiding somewhere in a factory that makes clean and eco-friendly flower pots from dirty garbage. — Oh no! I'll save you, Froggy! - he imagined himself as a big cat with a purple cape on his back and flew to the soundtrack of the 1979 film.

Well, here's the result!

And the moral is simple — do not leave your small and close friends unattended!

      Amy Rose and Cream were walking through the forest and, as always, discussing Sonic. Suddenly, their conversation was interrupted when they saw in the distance how Big was slowly walking through the forest, mooing something and looking at the empty flower pot that he was holding in his hands. — Big! — Amy and Cream recognized him, calling him by name and ran to him. — You won't believe what happened yesterday? Sonic wanted to run away at first, but I... Why are you so sad? Big, all in tears, shows the girls a flower pot. — Big, of course I understand that it is so beautiful that anyone would even cry, but it is just a flower pot. — Amy explained, and Big in response slightly tilted the pot towards her, showing a buried frog leg in the ground. Amy and Cream immediately realized that it was Froggy. — I-I... I... I can still hear him croaking. — Big guy spoke through his tears and, pressing the pot to his chest, sobbed even louder. Even Cream began to cry. She felt sorry for the frog, and even more sorry for the cat crying for him. Crying, she hugged Big, and the latter, continuing to sob, pressed the rabbit to himself in his arms. He could not even stand it, took one of her long ears, and blew his nose into it, instead of a handkerchief. Cream did not care. After all, the cat's best friend died, and that's the most important thing. Amy even forgot what she wanted to say. Holding back tears, she imagined Sonic's hand in this pot instead of Froggy's paw. — I didn't protect him... It would have been better if I had ended up on this conveyor belt myself and they would have made a flower pot out of me! — Really? — asked Cream. — NO!!! — seriously looking at Cream, Big shouted back, forgetting about Froggy for a second. Then he started crying again. — But I'm terribly worried!

Later

      Cream asked her mother Vanilla for a lavish funeral for Froggy. Froggy's remains with earth were poured into a small hole and buried so that they were not visible from the outside. Rose stuck the ninth stick straight into the ground, to which another one was tied, in the form of a crucifix. Next to the crucified sticks, they placed an ordinary stone on which they scratched with nails:

"Here lies Froggy the Frog"

"Big the cat's close, best and most loyal friend."

"2002-2020"

"He died not because of a virus from China, but because he got into a garbage recycling and flowerpot manufacturing plant. And he himself became a flowerpot with soil."

At the end, Big hung the empty flowerpot upside down on top of the crucifix, like a dead man's hat. Cream recited a prayer, begging Chaos to protect and repose the unfortunate soul of the now deceased Froggy. — Amen! — Amen! — Amy and Big repeated after Cream. Big stood for a long time near Froggy's grave and all the memories from the past floated before his eyes, when he had experienced so much with him.

Sonic Adventure

      Big, being in a big city, when Froggy fell into the pool, tried to catch him from there with his fishing rod, like a fish. He caught him and pulled him out, then, holding him in his hands, lifted him above himself and screamed his name: — FROGGY!!! But suddenly the robot Gamma appears from above, grabbing the frog from the cat's hands. The latter sighs in surprise out loud, and the robot winks and flies away with the frog in his claw. — NOOOOO!!! — he screamed and jumped, trying to grab the robot at least by the legs and save his friend. But because of his weight, he was unable to jump, and Gamma flew away.

Sonic Adventure 2

      Big ran around the city like a madman and looked for Froggy. He easily lifts the car and throws it aside, looking at the road under the car. — FROGGY!!! He runs further and, lifting a trash can, looks under it. — FROGGY!!! Throwing the tank aside, he runs to Amy Rose, who was standing with her back to him, looks under her skirt and shouts: — FROGGY, ARE YOU THERE??? — You're a nasty PERVERT!!! — Amy screamed, took out her hammer and hit the big guy hard on the head. — OUCH, IT HURT!!! — And you deserve it! You'll learn how to not look under girls' skirts! - Amy hissed and left.

***

      Big continued to search and finally found him. Having run across the roadway at a red light and stopping a bunch of cars on the way, creating a traffic jam, Big runs to a river with logs, where he accidentally slips on one and falls into the river. Big swam downstream, and Froggy galloped away from him.

Sonic Heroes

      Cream is trying so hard to fly into the sky that she even strains, but she can't. Considering that she is very slowly dragging Amy along with her, who is holding on to her legs, and Big is holding on to her legs. — Come on, Cream, you can do it! — the hedgehog encouraged the rabbit. — Big needs to eat less! — Cream cursed. — Don't be so rude about him! — Amy said and looked back. Seeing that he was looking under her skirt, she screamed. — Froggy, are you there? Answer me!

***

— CHAO!!! — Cream screamed happily, hugging her Chao. — FROGGY!!! — Big screamed happily, hugging his frog. — SONIIIIC!!! — Amy cries out joyfully and runs to Sonic to hug him, but Sonic trips her, dodges and runs away.

Shadow the hedgehog

      Big and Froggy froze. — Froggy, why can we still move?

Sonic the hedgehog 2006

      Solaris almost destroyed all of reality and Big and Froggy ended up in some kind of dark space. — Wow! Where are we?

Sonic X

      Sonic attacks Dr. Eggman's base, and the latter, with the help of the Chaos Emeralds, manages to move them all to another space. The wave catches up with Big and Froggy, who covers his friend with his body. — What's happening to me AAAAAAA...

Sonic Boom

      Big fought against a pirate wolf armed with a saber, and he himself fought back with his fishing rod. The battle looked like a trash comedy in the style of fichtovaniye. The pirate had already struck the fishing rod with the sharp edges of his saber several times, but it still did not break or split into pieces. When the evil pirate had thrown Big to the ground and almost defeated him, and Big could only defend himself, a frog fell from the sky and landed right on the pirate's nose, blocking his view. He tried to brush the frog off his face with his free hand, which angered Big. He rolled to the side, stood up and, knocking the saber out of the pirate's hand, grabbed him by the shoulders. — Don't you dare hurt my little Froggy, you bandit! — he hissed at the villain and threw him off the cliff. Big picked up his Froggy in his arms and pressed his muzzle to him. — Don't be afraid, Froggy! I promise that I won't let anyone hurt you. You're my best friend of all.

Present day

      After recovering from his memories, Big became even sadder and began to whisper to himself: — I couldn't save him... I didn't keep my oath... Now I have this feeling... That I'm alone. Of course, Amy and Cream were still standing nearby and heard everything. — Mr. Big. — Cream came up to Big and took his hand. — You have us. Big stops crying and hugs the hedgehog and the rabbit. — And I will never, for anything or anyone, trade you... I promise.
