/Line/
A girl with light blond hair, braided past the middle of her back wore a white dress that came to a stop at her knees. Her name was Claire McDowell. She was kneeling while tending to her cutting garden as she had just finished planting her last flower. She brushed her braid away and gave the final flower a light kiss then stood up, picking up her hand basket. With a content sigh she then brushed the remains of dirt off her snow white dress. You know the stereotype that sometimes girls or boys have fair hair that they will have blue eyes? Claire doesn't. She has crystal pink colored eyes, although no one knows why, not even her own parents. But the thing that happened to innocent Claire was that Eggman had tried to kidnap her, even going to the length of murdering her parents. Claire protected her little sister till the end, even though she was captured Eggman released her sister, unharmed. After that Claire was sent into a huge flying aircraft and locked up in a cell. It was then that a robot entered the cell to throw in an unconscious young girl. Claire, who was leaning against the wall, looked closer at the girl distinguishing her features. She had butterfly wings on her back and antenna's on her head. Her hair was braided similar to Claire's but was now messy and the braid had fallen apart.
Claire's POV
When the robot finally left, I crawled on my knees towards young girl with my hand outstretched as I gently shook her awake.
"Hey...wake up. Please…" I whispered as she slowly began to move, a sign that she was waking up. She opened her eyes, but when she saw me leaning over she let out an 'eek' and quickly backed against the wall.
"H-Hey! It's okay…My name is Claire. What's your name?" I said smiling softly at her, hoping to make her feel safer and know that I wasn't going to hurt her. It looked like it worked because she then crawled back towards me with a light smile on her lips.
"I-I'm Emi. Emi the Butterfly. Dr. Eggman kidnapped me and grabbed the Chaos Emerald I had." She frowned, her eyes crinkling and watering like she was about to cry. I didn't like seeing other people cry so I naturally reached out to her placing my hands on her shoulders.
"Don't worry, Emi! Its not your fault, it's that stupid jerk, Egghead's fault! I just hope someone saves us soon. I hate this stinky cell! My hair is all messy! I so need a hair brush!" I said with an exasperated sigh, hanging my head down, after placing my arms on my lap. Then I remembered something.
"Oh! I almost forgot!" I looked at Emi with confusion written all over my face as I saw her bring out something from her small bag. She brought out and ear piece, similar to the ones people used for cell phones. She placed it around her ear and quickly pressed a button. Then a faint voice was heard from it, I couldn't make out what was being said on the other line…but I did hear Emi softly whispering back though.
"Tails! Its me, Emi. Emi the Butterfly…uhh…ahh yeah, Eggman grabbed me and now has the Chaos Emerald, Sonic had given me to keep safe…I know….I'm so, so, so sorry…Tails, are you sure? Oh! Thank you, Tails and Sonic! Oh yeah! I met a girl that I share a cell with, Eggman captured her too…No…I don't know why she's here. I'll ask." Emi then looked at me with concerned blue eyes. " Claire, my friends, Tails and Sonic want to know why Eggman captured you?" I just blinked at the question not fully knowing myself.
"Actually, I don't have clue why Egghead wanted me. He never really told me why he took me…" I frowned, I confused more than ever now.
"I see… did you hear that, Tails?…Okay, we'll wait right here for ya. Oh! And if you can hear me, Sonic! You'd better hurry up or no chilli dogs for you when I get back!" I could hear a faint crash from the ear piece, causing Emi to laugh as she pressed the button again then put away the ear piece.
"Sorry about that, Claire…So you don't really know why Eggman wants you?" Emi asked while I just shrugged again.
"Nope. I have no idea what so ever…I just hope your friends get here soon. I want to see my little sister, Molly, again, that is if she's safe and sound…." I said trailing off, since then Emi and I talked about ourselves when two of Eggman's idiot robots walked in and grabbed my arms. I was thrashing against it, kicking and screaming for it to let me go as it dragged me out of the cell.
"You stupid tin cans! Get your greasy hands off me!" I screamed still trying to escape.
"Claire! Let my friend go, you stupid piece of scrap metal!" Emi suddenly tackled the one that held me freeing one arm, giving me enough time to kick the other robot that held my other arm, away from me. I was about to grab Emi and start running for our lives but then Eggman came in with more robots ordering them to drag me away.
"Let me go, you stupid Egghead!" I screamed again as I once again began to fight back. Eggman then started laughing, which really annoyed me to no end, but it was what he ordered the robots do that made me turn pale and leave Emi gasping, afraid for my life.
"Let me go you stupid Egghead!" I was once again kicking and screaming
"Eggbots, take Claire to my lab. I need to extract it out of her body…even if it kills her. Hohoho!" He cackled then walked out with his hands calmly behind his back, with me being held up by the stupid henchmen robots. I looked at Emi, smiling sadly at her.
"Don't worry, Emi…Your friends are coming for you. Don't worry about me…What ever Egghead wants from inside of me, must be something bad. So please don't worry, I have faith in your friends and so do you. Just believe…" Then the robots dragged me away from the cell and into a cold room with sharp tools and instruments. The robots strapped me on my back to a metal table with a weird laser pointing above me. Then I heard the whirring as it turned on. My heart was racing as I closed my eyes tightly, just waiting for the pain…but none came. I opened my eyes to hear someone yelling out curses and ect. When the door opened suddenly I turned my head to the right, but didn't see anyone.
"You must be Emi's friend, right? Claire, correct?" I gasped turning my to the left to see a blue hedgehog with gorgeous green eyes.
"O-oh…y-yes! That's me, but call me Claire instead…c-can you take these straps off me? They're getting really tight on me." I stuttered out as he sighed shaking his head with a light smile.
"Oh sure!" He quickly undid the straps, finally letting me sit up with sore arms.
"Thank you-…umm…"
"Sonic. Sonic the hedgehog is the name. Now come on! Lets get you to safety along with Emi. My friend Tails took her back to our place." Sonic said as he helped me off the table.
"O-Okay…but how? We're really high in the sky." I frowned confused by Sonic, who was giving me a mischievous smile. In an instant he had picked me up in his arms, bridal style causing me to flush. I wrapped my arms around his neck afraid he was going to drop me.
"W-what are you doing?" I yelped as he just winked at me
"Relax, okay…just trust me." He said with a warm comforting smile, I nodded closing my eyes.
"O-Okay, I…I'll just close my eyes then…I don't really like high places." I said then suddenly there was a huge gust of wind blew past us, messing up my hair even more.
"You can open your eyes, Claire. We're on safe grounds now." I slowly opened my eyes to see that he was telling the truth, we were back on solid ground. Sonic then shifted me a bit as he placed me on the ground, finally letting me stand on my own.
"Thank you, Sonic! How am I ever going to repay you for rescuing Emi and I?" I looked as Sonic as he waved me off with a smile.
"Nah, no worries. Emi is a friend and any friends of Emi is a friend of mine!" He said giving me a thumbs up. I felt like my heart skipped a beat from being so happy and excited that I had made another friend. Then suddenly the happy moment was gone as I felt like something was burning from the inside out. I doubled over clutching my stomach in pain, I shut my eyes tightly trying to block out the hurt but it didn't work. I heard Sonic calling out my name in panic, I tried to open my mouth but the pain just got even worse and then I couldn't take it any longer. I screamed as a darkness overwhelmed me and held me with open arms, the last thing I heard was Sonic's shouts of concern, then…nothing….
