Me: First off, I want to say, tttttthhhhhhaaaaaaaannnnnnnnkkkkk yyyyyoooooouuuu for choosing this story to read! I know the name of this story isn't that well thought out and the summary isn't very good ether, whoever reads this deserves to be blest by God. I have high hopes for this story, if you(the reader) have an idea for story, or a CO that want to be in a chapter by all means tell me! Alright, without further ado, Lena, the disclaimer,
Lena: she doesn't own Sonic the Hedgehog or the song Overcomer. If she did, Sonic X wouldn't have anything to do with Chris, and it would be for teens.
Sonic's POV
Gotta go gotta go gotta go! I yelled in my head as I zipped past a mall tugging on my cameo shirt. Why does it have to be Monday? Still, I have to be at school now or detention for a month! I reminded myself. School started one month ago, and I still can't wake up in time to make it before the bell, even with my speed! My teacher was getting so made at me, for walking in at the last minute, that she threatened me with detention for a month. A whole falling month! I don't know what I'd do I that happened. Maybe die of boredom.
"No, I really had enough! Please, leave me alone!" I heard a girl yell pulling me out of my thoughts. I skid to a stop to see twenty photographers taking pictures of, well, I couldn't really see who. I casually walked up to them, dropping my school bag on the sidewalk, forgetting my last thought. These photographers backed the poor girl to the wall with no hope to escape, of course without me that is.
"Tisk, tisk." I said to myself. I peeked over the shoulder of a photographer rabbit and gasped. They were taking pictures of a beautiful fox! I instantly recognized her from a magazine I read over the weekend, she's a new singer, if I remembered that correctly. She was wearing a blue tank-top with a big purple flower on it and dark blue jeans. She had sunglass on and an over the shoulder purse. Her ears and tail were tipped with purple, while her arms were line with purple. And her eyes... they were a just the most beautiful mix of purple and gold. I could get lost forever in-
"Turn the right and put on a smile!" One of the photographers complained breaking my thoughts. I quickly shook my head started thinking.
"Please, just leave me be!" The girl yelled looking annoyed. I smiled as I put the finale toughs on my plan.
"One more pose!" Another photographer begged. The singer opened her mouth to answer, but I cut her off,
"You wanna to know what I think?" I started. Everyone's attention slowly turned to me, "I think she's had enough of you jerks!" I announced. Everyone who wasn't looking at me before, now quickly moved to see me better. In doing that, they made a path to the girl for me. I casually walked up and whispered to her "You want these idiots gone?" She quickly nodded her head while my smile grew. I turned around to face the crowd of photographers. "Alright all of you, I'm gonna give you two options: One, leave the girl now. Or two, the hard way." I grinned as I held my hand up with two fingers out.
Ether way, this is gonna be fun. I thought as my smile turned into a smirk.
The photographers looked at each other then back at me. Could they read their thoughts or something?
"Who are you to push us around?" A fox photographer asked. I put my hand down and opened my mouth to answer, but somebody beat me to it,
"Why do you get to tell us what to do?" A panda photographer asked. I opened my mouth again, but like last time, someone beat me to it,
"He's the girls boyfriend! Why else would he help her?" A photographer from the back of the crowd yelled. I jumped in shock.
Okay, if this plan wasn't complicated enough, now they think I'm her boyfriend?! These people believe anything, but blue hedgehogs. I complained to myself as they took more pictures. I lifted my arms up to hide my face from the cameras.
"Ugh, I hate the paparazzi!" The girl complained, looking even more annoyed.
"Well then, I guess it's 'bout time we showed them what its like to be on the other side of the camera!" I told the girl. I heard her giggle before I turned to crowd and continued, "Hey paparazzi! Cheese!" I said as I started running around the girl. She squeaked in shock, but stayed still. The photographers started to back away in fright.
Ha! I got them now... I thought to myself as I started running in between each photographer, taking their cameras. I'll take this, this oh! This too! I thought happily while taking the last camera which looked very expensive.
"Oh, and boys," I started, as I stopped to stand before the girl with all their cameras, "I did warn you." I said in a lower voice with a smirk. I turned on my heel to look at the girl. She was smiling gratefully at me. "Mind if I take you away from these jerks?" I asked jerking my head at the stunned crowd of photographers.
"Please!" She squeaked happily. I smiled as I picked her up bridal style, still holding on to the cameras.
"Hang on tight!" I told her as I ran down the street. She squeaked and held on tight, but nothing else, though I wasn't even going half my real speed! I stopped at a bridge over a highway. I looked back to check if those idiots were out of sight, the only thing I could see was a sidewalk, they were gone.
"Ah-could you put me down?" I heard the girl ask sweetly, but also shyly. I jumped slightly, and looked at her in my arms.
"O-of course!" I said putting her down. She dusted herself off and looked up to me.
"Thank you for saving me from those stupid paparazzi! They drive me nuts! I don't even know why they'er after me, I'm not even that popular." She trailed off. "Well, there has to be something that I can do for you. Not everyday someone will save me from those idiots." She asked with a smile.
"Hmm... you could start with your name." I said with a cockily grin. She stared at me slightly surprised.
"O-Oh! So sorry for my rudeness, I'm Lena Breeze." She said quickly. I smiled at her. That's what her name was!
"Okay then, I'm Sonic, Sonic the Hedgehog!" I said happily.
She nodded her head and said, "It's very nice to meet you Sonic." She bowed slightly.
"I'm not one to be formal, then there's no need for my friends to be formal around me." I said with a smile. Lena looked up at me, clearly surprised at my friendliness.
"There has to be something more I can give you then just my name..." She trailed off in thought. I don't really need anything, so I let her think. My eyes wondered over to the cameras still in my hand.
"Hey, Lena, watch this." I said as I walked to the edge of the bridge holding up the cameras.
"Don't tell your gonna-" She started as she ran over to stop me, but it was to late. I dropped the cameras over the ledge and watched as they landed and broke. A few seconds later, they were run over by some cars. I started laughing hard, and I have no idea why. Maybe because Lena was laughing too.
"I can't believe you just dropped them!" Lena finally managed to say through giggles. She was gripping her stomach from laughter. "Those cameras might have costed more then you yearly allowance!" She cried as we stopped laughing. I leaned against the rail as Lena was still gripping her stomach, hunching over.
"Actually, I think all the allowance I'll ever earn in my life!" I said. "Oh well, I guess they need to find a new hobby now." I finished with a smirk.
"Do you want to make their lives miserable?" She asked trying to hind her smile, but failed. I chuckled.
"No, I just wanna have a good time." I answered. She stood up strait and looked at me.
"Hey that reminds me! I'm performing in a concert this weekend, do you wanna come?" Lena asked. I turned to look at her. Her eyes seamed to be begging me.
"Sure, how much are the tickets?" I asked.
Maybe I can get Tails to come. Hmmm, oh course if he feels better by then.
"The only price for you pay is saving me from the paparazzi. Here I'll give you four." She said as she started to dig through her bag.
"You sure?" I asked unsure.
It's not everyday someone will hand you free tickets. A voice said in my head.
Who are you? I asked it.
I'm you, um, to put it simply, I'm a voice in your head. It responded.
Oooohhhhh how come we never met before? I asked.
Um, why not we get back to the problem at hand? The voice asked me.
What problem? I asked it.
"Um, Sonic?" Lena asked, holding out four tickets for me.
"Oh sorry. Thanks." I said awkwardly as I grabbed the tickets. I looked at them for a second, then shoved them in the back pocket of my jeans.
"Where were you off to, before you saw me?" Lena asked changing the subject.
"I was off to my prison called school." I said frowning. I heard her chuckle.
"Well, your gonna be pretty late if you stick around here any longer." She told me while trying to keep her laughter down.
"Oh my fallin' balls!" I said when I finally looked at the time. "I'm gonna get detention for a month now! Ugh!" I yelled throwing my hands up in frustration. It was nine o'clock, nine o'clock!
"Hey, I could come with you and talk to your principal. Maybe he'll let you slip this time." Lena suggested. I shook my head as I recover my senses.
"No, all my teachers hate me. Especially my science teacher." I told her.
She shook her head and said. "Don't worry about it! I know what it's like to be hated." Her voice was lower, "But I also know what it's like to try. Give me a shot." She said with a smile. I looked at her.
By the sound of her voice, it's easy to tell she didn't have the best past. The least I can do, is try to change that. I thought to myself.
"Alright, lets do it to it!" I said as Lena's smile grew.
-after school-
I CAN'T believe they did this to me. Or us, or, ugh! Whatever! I don't even care anymore! How does my principal guess that I brought my adopted cousin to school to say that she was a pop star (or soon to be) and I saved her from the paparazzi as an excuse to get out of detention?! Why would I have a fox for a cousin anyway?! I barely even know my who my cousins are! The worse part is, my stupid principal made Lena take class' for the day. Without me. I think she took it alright, but I still feel bad for dragging her in this. Stupid, stupid, stupid! I yelled at myself. I looked shyly over at Lena, who got caught in all of this, only because she was trying to help me get out of it. She's a very nice person.
She felt my gaze and turned to look at me. She smiled, and I smiled back. I turned my attention back to the front of the room where our teacher, Mr. Callin Fox, had fallen asleep. My eyes slowly scanned the wall until they fell upon the clock.
It's only three twenty-five?! We've been here for twenty minutes and I'm already dying of boredom?! Wow. I thought to myself as I buried my face in my hands.
"Got so much on your mind, nothing really going right, looking for a ray of hope." I heard Lena whisper in a singing voice. I looked at her. She was still staring at the wall. She hummed the tone then continued, "whatever it is you may be going through." She hummed a little more, "I know He's not gonna let it get the best of you, your an overcomer." She whispered, then turned to look at me with a smile on her face.
"Wow, that's beautiful Lena." I told her. She blushed slightly as she looked down at her desk.
"Thanks, I just thought you needed a little encouragement." She said shyly. I smiled at her.
She really does care about others more then herself, huh. I thought.
"The song was by Mandisa its called Overcomer. It's one of my favourites." She told me while looking up in thought.
"Cool. Hey, since this dude fell asleep on us, why not tell me what your gonna sing this weekend?" I asked.
"Sure!-" she started, but was cut off by her phone. She picked it up and seamed surprised at what it said. She pressed a button and held her it to her ear. I looked away, trying to distract myself for as long as she was on the phone.
Why was I stupid enough to not charge my phone last night? I asked myself.
Well, first off you were texting Tails. He got sick a few days ago and you wanted to tell him what You did in science. After about, three hours, you fell asleep texting, remember? the voice in my head asked.
Right! Tails freaked out and tried to call me. I responded.
But your older sister, Sonia, heard it before you, and answered it. I think we all know what happened after that. The voice finished.
Yep, anyone can guess that she was pissed and took my phone, and was stupid enough not to charge it. I told it. The voice sighed in response. You know, I think we get along very nicely! I told the voice.
Oh my goodness, I'm YOU! The voice yelled at me.
Wait, what? I asked in confusion.
I'm yo-
"What?! They just can't- right right. But where are you- yes of course!- me?! Are you crazy?" Lena yelled at her phone pulling me out of my thoughts, a second time this day. "I can't sing without- I know that! But how are you- I can't find a new- please stop cutting me off!" She continued.
I looked at her in shock. The tone of her voice was frightening. I wouldn't want to be the one on the other side of that phone call.
"Please find me one! A good one, that knows all the songs.- wait, what do you mean I don't have anyone? Oh great! You know what? You win, I'll find one, even if the press has to know!" She nearly screamed into her phone as she took it from her ear and pressed a button Anybody could see the annoyance in her eyes. Her beautiful-
"Sonic," She started breaking my thoughts, again, "my band just broke up. That was our manager on the phone, he said, since I was the lead singer, and the fact that none of the band wants to perform, I could still perform, if I get a band together within three days." She paused to sigh. "Only my best friend wants to stay with me, she plays the keyboard. What on earth am I going to do?!" She yelled as she buried her face in her hands. I quickly looked over at Mr. Callin. He was still asleep. Somehow.
Good, now all I have to do is remember...
"Got so much on your mind, nothing really going right, looking for a ray of hope." I sang to her. She slowly lifted her head in amazement, well, that's what it looked like to me. I hummed a little more of the tone before continuing, "Whatever it is you may be going through." I paused again to hummed the tone, then continued, but this time, Lena joined me, "I know He's not gonna let it get the best of you, your an overcomer!" We finish together. I looked over at her, I guess singing speaks louder then words, because she was glowing. Her eyes were shinning, and it seamed she could fly.
"Sonic, you have a great voice! Are you in that Band club?" Lena asked eagerly. I was taken aback at her question, but shook it off.
"No, but don't-" I started, but 'Call me maybe' came on. I looked over at Mr. Callin. He slowly woke up, and started searching for something on the desk. He found his phone and answered it, stoping the music.
"Oh man, who has that for a ringtone?" I whispered to myself. Lena giggled.
"Well, he does for one." Lena responded. I looked at her form the corner of my eye. She was staring at Mr. Callin's desk.
"O-of course!- no no nothing important.- I can leave right now- yes yes!" Mr. Callin told his phone. I looked at him like if he was crazy, which I think he is. "Where?- okay, I'll be there in ten- yes, thank you!" He said as he ended the call. "Alright kids, you can get off early, but Sonic, I want to see you here tomorrow."
I rolled my eyes then responded sarcastically, "Of course doc, I wouldn't miss it for the world."
"I told you yesterday! Stop calling me that!" The teacher yelled at me.
I looked at him in the eye an said, "Okay teach." At that comment his face turned red and it looked like he would blow a blood vessel. I tried very hard not to laugh, but seeing Lena giggling, didn't help.
"Oh so help me- Sonic, I have the power to make your detention an hour longer and for t-three or f-four months! Stop calling me by your s-stupid nicknames!" He yelled at me. I pretended to look offended.
"Teach, ah- teacher, my nicknames for you are on the top of the list, I truly thought you liked having the best nicknames in the school, I guess I was mistaken. Sorry." I told him as I pretended to keep back tears. I heard Lena sniffle, I wasn't sure if it was for effect or she actually thought I was this way. Mr. Callin looked slightly surprised, but shook it off.
"Sonic, I've seen you do this to Mis. Takey, I'm not going to fall for it too." Teach told me.
"Really? I'm glad you know me, I would like to know you more, but you sleep so much. Maybe I should talk to the principal... Hmm." I said as I looked up in thought. I heard Lena giggling doing her best to keep her laughter in, but it seamed she would break soon.
"Sonic, don't you dare. I-I-I can expel you!" He yelled trying to threaten me. I sighed.
"You're a lame excuse for a teacher, you're not even worth of my nicknames. Deep down, I thought you were cool, oh well." I told him as I got up. I looked at Lena, who was now laughing so hard that she was rolling on the floor crying.
"You thought I was cool? Sonic, that has to be the worse lie you told me all day!" Mr. Callin told me. He looked like he just caught me, but I had him caught long before this conversation started.
I looked at my wristwatch before answering him, "Okay then, I think I stalled you for a good ten minutes, good luck getting to where you need to!" I said looking up at him. I heard Lena gasp. Still don't know if it's for effect or she doesn't really know what I'm planing.
"Soooooooonic!" Teach yelled at me.
"Ah, that's what I like to hear." I turned to Lena to see her reaction. She was aw stricken. She was sitting on the floor with her eyes were widened, her mouth was open, and she was pointing her fingers everywhere trying to process what happened. It was hard to hold down my laughter, I had to let out a few giggles. "Hey Lena, wanna to blow this pop stand?" I asked, hoping she would return to her normal.
"Please!" She squeaked as she stood up. I smiled as I walked up to her, I took her hand and dragged her out the door.
"Sooonic! Get back here!" Mr. Callin shouted.
"I'm gonna tell the principal if you don't let me leave!" I yelled back. I heard him punch his desk. I took that as 'please leave Sonic!' So, I started running off. My teachers can be pretty stupid sometimes.
"Ah! Sonic, warn me when your gonna run!" Lena complained as I was running. All I could was chuckle. I wasn't running fast, about the speed for Lena to run on her own.
Once we were on the other side of the school, I stopped. Lena nearly fell over, but managed to stay upright by putting her hands on her knees.
"Goodness Sonic...since when...we're you...so funny?" Lena asked through breaths.
I chuckled before answering, "I've always been, seriously, ask my science buddy, he'll tell you all about it." I smiled at the thought of science partner.
"Can I get his name?" She asked standing strait.
"Miles Prower, Tails is his nickname." I told her.
"Tails?" She asked confused.
"When you meet him, you'll understand." I said as I turned to see where we were exactly. "Oh man, we gotta go." I said realizing we were standing right in front of room 201.
"Why? This is where the Band Club meets." She told me.
"Yeah, that's why." I said as I reach for her wrist, but it was too late,
"Hey Sonic, fancy seeing you here at this time." I heard someone say behind me. "What are you even going here, faker?" He asked. I slowly turned around to come face to face with a black hedgehog, with red highlights in his quills and two of his buddies, a black rabbit and another hedgehog that was green. The black hedgehog was wearing a dark brown jacket with a dark blue shirt with a black knife on it under and black jeans. His rabbit friend was wearing a purple jacket with a dark green shirt under and dark blue jeans. His green hedgehog friend was wearing a black jacket with a blood red shirt under with black pants. The black hedgehog was holding a guitar with both his hands. I was about to yell at the jerk, but Lena beat me to it.
"We were just passing through." She quickly grabbed my wrist and started pulling me away. I glared at the hedgehog one more time before following Lena.
"Look! The worlds second best is being push around by his girlfriend!" He teased us as his 'friends' laughed.
Once he was out of earshot Lena said, "Sonic, don't tell that was the Band Club." I looked at her.
"Yes, sadly it was. That was Shadow and his 'friends' Scourge and Sten. They took over the Band Club, and no one ever dared to take it back." I told her. She looked up at me, and stopped walking.
"So, I guess we have to work with then now, huh." She said while tapping her finger on her chin. I froze.
"You're, not gonna work with those sons of a-."
"Clam down it was just a joke!" she said laughing to herself, I chuckled a little. She did get me there. "They're the Band Club, right?" She asked. I nodded my head. "So, we can't use your schools Band Club, we have to make our own." She told me.
A/N Hey there! Thanks for reading again, it's means so much to me that you did! I'm not really sure what songs Lena is going to sing, so all song suggestions are greatly appreciated! Did the chapter seam a little rushed? I'm not sure, if anyone could tell me, just a simple 'rushed' would be nice. Until next time,
I love reading
