Stepdaddy: chapter 1
Sonic's POV
I enjoyed the wind that went through my short quills as i looked out of the window from my dad's car. It was summer and it was really warm and sunny. I watched the view of the country land that speeded by the car as we drove on. "Sonic, sit down, honey." My mom, Aleena, said and i quickly sat properly on my seat. My mom smiled at me as a silent praise and moved her gaze in front of her again and resumed her conversation with my dad, Jules.
I was getting a bit bored now. We had been driving for almost half an hour and it really started to annoy me. I was a small child and full of energy. I wanted to play outside with my friends instead of sitting still in a car. I pouted and kept my eyes on the passing country side.
We reached the highway after another ten minutes. Dad speeded up the car to keep up with the other fast moving cars. "dad, are we there yet?" I asked and clung onto the passenger seat that mom was sitting on. "almost, don't worry." My dad said and kept his concentration on the road ahead of him.
Almost another 21 minutes passed by. Dad drove our car off of the highway and onto an equally busy road that lead into a city. At the edge on the other side of this city was a well-known amusement park. That was the reason we were driving. One of my friends was throwing a birthday party there and i was invited to it.
"there it is!" I yelled excitedly and pointed as the amusement park came into the view. My mom and dad smiled as we got closer to it. We only had small 500 metres to go. The closer we got, the more my excitement grew. I couldn't wait till i could play with my friends onto the attractions that filled the large area of the amusement park. "are you looking forward to it, honey?" My mom asked as she faced me again. I quickly nodded and watched the gates of the amusement coming closer.
I jumped out of the car when Dad stopped infront of the gates and allowed me and Mom to get out of the car so we could already join my friends and their parents. "i'll be joining you in a minute, but first i got to park the car." Dad said before driving on to find an empty spot in the parking lot. My mom smiled in agreement.
I reached the gates. Mom turned on her heels and approached me. "come on, mom!" I yelled and turned to her. "i'm coming, i'm coming." She said with a soft laugh. She came to my side and took my hand. I smiled and pulled her forward.
She followed, but suddenly halted. She let go of my hand and turned around. "mom?" I asked, but she didn't hear me over her own scream that was followed by a hard explosion. My eyes widened and i followed the noise to it's source. "Jules!" My mother yelled and ran to the wreck of my father's car that had been hit by a truck as it's drunk driver fell asleep. "D...Dad?" I muttered aas a silent call that i hoped woul've been answered. But he never did. "Jules!" My mom yelled and tried to rip out the door, but found it useless. The truck had slammed into the driver seat, making the door stuck in place. Mom ran to the other side of the wrecked car and opened the door. "Jules, wake up!" My mom yelled and cupped her husband's cheeks into her hands. "Jules, wake up please! don't leave us behind!" She yelled and kissed his bloodied forehead.
Someone bumped into me as he ran to the car wreck and my mom while calling an ambulance. I had fallen to the ground and sat down onto my knees as i watched the wreck starting to catch fire. A guy pulled my mom out of the car and two other men carried my dad out of the car. His once clear cobalt fur was sticky and covered with his blood from deep fleshwounds and broken bones.
My mom went to her knees besides him and tried to wake him up, but he wouldn't budge. He wasn't waking up. He wasn't moving. He wasn't even breathing. He wasn't here with me and mom anymore.
