Author's Note:

Here it is. I promised to sequel it, and ... well ... yeah. first, i want to thank people who submitted their ideas and shizzle to all this. I never once thought when i finished 'The Mobian Adventures: Beginning' that i would get SOOOO much fan mail. Even more so, i got a slew of O.C.'s, locations, and plot ideas to keep this story funky fresh for some time. That being said, two people deserve special recognition for their support.

Ultrabot Ultimus The Hedgehog

VGCats-Rocks

Thanks two those two, i got the bulk of epic elements for this story. That being said, YES i am still main writer and you'll still see my original plot and such going on. Just ... say hello to some original characters and their ... life-stories, events and such. IF the concept of original characters angers you, then please, don't read any further than this. This chapter is the only exempt one from the life of O.C.s

Enjoy


Rough Steps

"Ugh…" Sonic said groggily as he rubbed his eyes and sat up. He was in his bed, in his room in what appeared to be morning; hence the sun's light coming through the nearby window. "What did I do last night?" he thought as the memories slowly surfaced

There he was on the beach, hanging out with Amy and friends. He talked to Silver and Blaze about a plan he had to help take down Metal Sonic… but the rest was drawing up a blank.

He heard water running in his bathroom, the sound made as one uses the shower, and the memories slowly rushed back into his head. "Oh… that's right. We laid out our plan and then I was taking Amy home with me… and we passed out in my bed…" he said, unable to remember if they had any sexual encounter

He nervously thought about the slim chance that he may or may not have had sexual intercourse on his twentieth birthday's night, when he noticed a small letter placed on his nightstand. The paper had an ocelot drawn on the back, with two long strikes through the neck, Thoice's calling card. He grabbed it and opened it up to read;

'Hey Sonic, try heading East to the nearby city of, what is now, Metaltropolis. You may remember it as near the 'Hilltop Zone'. Or heck, it had another name too; 'Darkwave' if that rings a bell…

-Thoice'

"Again with the cryptic directions… but at least I have a place to start" he said, putting down the letter and getting out of bed. A sigh of relief rushed through him as he noticed he was still moderately clothed, thus disputing a large amount of the possibility that he had sex. "Weird… I must be among the first man to be thankful to not of had sex last night" he realized as he strolled to the nearby window to look down at the city and contemplate his plan

He told Silver and Blaze that he was going to need help toppling Metal Sonic, but even he didn't know how. He wanted them to go to the west and try to find and destroy some of Metal Sonic's factories and such, hopefully drawing attention from Sonic and Amy's adventure. He hated placing them in such a risky position, but he really had no other choice. "I just hope they do alright" he thought over and over throughout the night.

As for he and Amy, his original plan was to arbitrarily check the cities around Central City and hope to find some evidence of Metal Sonic… but Thoice's letter now was going to streamline that process.

The bathroom door opened, and a wave of steam followed a pink hedgehog carefully wrapped up in a towel. "Hey Sonic, it's all yours" she said coyly as she walked over to his closet and started to pick clothes out for herself.

"Amy… did you place a change of clothes for yourself… in my closet?" he couldn't help but ask

"Well duh silly, if I'm going to be spending so many nights over here, why wouldn't I?" she replied as if it were obvious

"Whatever, I'm going to take a quick shower and then we got to get heading out. Seems Thoice left us a good place to start" he said as he gestured to the letter on the night stand. He then grabbed a pair of clothes to change into and walked into the bathroom to start up the shower. He turned the water up to hot and let the water slowly gain temperature as he looked into the mirror, as if to psych himself up for this adventure.

"Come on Sonic, you've been on so many adventures, this should be no trouble for you" he thought, but was constantly hearing Thoice's voice in his head as he learned that Metal Sonic planned genocide of all living races. He knew his metal copy had an inferiority complex, but he never once thought that this would come from this. To make matters worse, Amy's prediction with her tarot cards constantly made him worried about what friend of his would die in the end. He wanted it to be no one, but sometimes such situations couldn't be avoided.

He mindlessly hoped into the shower, completed his morning rituals and got out all while thinking about what he would do in each case of a friend's death. Some hit him hard, like if Tails or Knuckles died, then what would he do? "What can I do?" he would frequently ask himself. Certain people, like Rouge or Silver were still important to him, but he was less attached to the concept of them dying for some reason. That being said, he wanted no one to die, but wasn't sure on how he would even begin to make that reality happen.

"Sonic, hurry up, your taking longer than a girl" Amy said teasingly beyond the door

"Oh shush you" he said, coming back to reality as he quickly donned his clothes and stepped out of the shower. Amy was lying on the bed, and gestured to him with her finger

"Come on, we got a few minutes" she said teasingly

He thought about it for a second, and succumbed to her seductive will. He cuddled into her and the two kissed and held each other closely, namely just embracing the peace they had now for they both seemed to be able to predict that the future was going to be much rougher than either was ready for.

After a good five minutes of passionate making out, and sexually suggestive behavior, Amy pushed him off and straightened her hair as she said "Ok lover boy, let's get moving" with a wink

"Aw Ames, you keep getting me in the mood and then you remind me that I'm the hero" he laughed, getting up and grabbing his assortment of trinkets he got from his birthday. He slipped on the bracelet that Team Chaotix gave him, donned the shoes Silver gave him, placed the ring Amy gave him over his right ring finger (so that no one would mistake him for married) and slipped the scroll blaze gave him into his pocket, so that he could read it on his down time as he was still incredibly interested in what kind of ancestors he had.

"You ready princess?" she teased, waiting in the door way as he carefully slipped her ring on "And you look so sexy with a ring, should make that a more standard feature of you" she said with a seductive wink

"Maybe one day Ames, but I think only after we topple my crazed arch-nemesis" he replied darkly "Let's get a move on" he remarked as the two jumped out of his window and hit the grind rail. The rode it to the east for a good distance before leaping off to his a rooftop, and then used the roofs to quickly get out of the city.

"Ok, so Thoice said to just head east… you know where this 'Metaltropolis' is?" she asked him as the two bounded between roofs

"Uhm… yes and no. He said it was where Hilltop Zone sort of is and that is all I know" he replied

"Oh… wonder why he said 'near to'…" she pondered aloud

"Knowing Thoice… or heck, Metal Sonic, it can't be for good reason" Sonic said as he winced at the probability that the zone was something drastically different than he originally remembered

The two ran out of the city, as a blue and pink blur and made good time to the east. Sonic realized during this little jog just how much these shoes helped him. The distance they traveled didn't even faze him, in fact, he almost felt insulted at traveling so slow. "Weird… Thoice was right… these shoes might just be my downfall" he smirked as he decided to test just how much they can handle.

He ran over to Amy, who was jogging mindlessly as she took in the beauty of the trail, and slipped her off her feet. She cried out in surprise, but let him continue after she realized what he was going to do. Then, with a smirk on his face, he decided to run as fast as his shoes could handle.

The two ran so fast that Sonic saw the world around him creep to a crawl. The leaves in the tree seemed to almost stop all together, even though they were currently running with the wind. The sun's light seemed to slow down and become more like intermittent bursts of color, causing the sights to occasionally take on a 'colorless' aspect. It was almost too much to comprehend in such a short time, so he slowed back down to a startled Amy pinching him

"Geez, warn me why don't you! I didn't know you were going to break a sound barrier or whatever that was" she said angrily as she leapt out of his arms and continued to jog at her own pace, happy to be back in control

"Sorry Ames, I didn't think these shoes would allow me to go so fast with so little effort…" he replied, looking at the shoes with a nervous glance

"Well learn to use them better, geez. Keep doing dumb things like that and you'll probably tear a whole in the world or something" she said with a joking laugh

"Yeah, you're probably right" he sheepishly chuckled with her, vowing to spend more time trying to understand how these shoes worked.

The two quietly ran the distance, until they came across a zone that brought back some memories for him, the good old sunset forest zone. "Gee, haven't been here for some time" he remarked aloud

"Oh, what did you do here?" she asked

"Truthfully… essentially I raced against Shadow and such" he laughed, remembering their high-speed adventures

"Well, that's cute. Cause now you and me can have a race for good old times" she laughed as she decided to run ahead of him and run along the course.

"Crazy girl" he thought as he chased after her. He let her have the lead for some time, following her and purposely falling short of her. He wanted to build up her confidence, for he felt that he ability to run this fast would prove to only help them in the end.

She soon figured out he was playing with her and this caused her to get angry at him, for some reason or another. She started throwing hammers at Sonic, to encourage him to actually pick up the pace. He dodged them simply enough, but the message was clear. He decided to abuse his shoes and see what he could do.

He started running faster and faster, as he felt the fabric of time slowly bent around him. Amy looked as if she was running in amber, appearing frozen in time as he quickly passed her. He then realized he may have over done it and slowed back down to a normal jog just to see time rapidly be re-applied to her, as she seemed to be picking up her pace again.

She took a double look at Sonic and quickly jumped to conclusions "Hey, no fair! You're not allowed to use chaos control!" she cried out in defeat

"Good point Ames… this seems to work much like chaos control… I should really be careful with a spin dash" he thought, knowing that these shoes would most likely cause some adverse affect with so much speed. "Nope Ames, no chaos control here, just good old fashioned speed" he laughed, gesturing to his shoes

"Ugh! Why couldn't Silver of given those to me!" she cried out in anguish

"Oh come on you" he said, as he slowed down to her pace. She had exerted herself to much and had incurred the penalties of fatigue. She was clearly breathing heavy and looked as if she was ready to pass out. He swung her into his arms and he jogged off with her for a good couple miles, until a nice clearing came up.

"Here's good" she said with a tired voice

"Alright Ames" he said protectively, as he stopped and carefully put her down. As she lay on the ground, panting and just closing her eyes as if to feign trying to sleep. "Ya thirsty for anything?" he asked cautiously

"I could do with some water" she replied, still clearly tired

"Ok, be back in a sec" he said, as he decided to run into the nearby forest to look for a stream to fill up the canteen they brought. "Why don't we ever fill these things before we leave" he thought with a dumb grin on his face

He found a stream out in the forest, after only a few minutes of mindlessly searching. There, standing next to the stream was a figure in a trench coat, leaning against a tree and mindlessly playing some song on some small device. Sonic tried to ignore his presence and fill the bottle, but the tune was far too annoying as it kept having robotic-sounding drops and far too much bass for his liking. "Ya mind turning that down pal?" he asked, still filling the canteen

The music stopped as if interrupted, and Sonic looked up to thank the person when he saw no one was standing there. "Ok… that was definitively weird" he said aloud, looking to where than man could of went off to. Unable to discern any such direction or place of hiding, he decided it was better left unknown and rushed back to give Amy the water.

"Took you long enough" she said with a parched laugh between drinks from the canteen

"Look, Ames, I know you can run fast and all…. But can you do me a favor and stop trying to over exert yourself?" he asked, looking her in the eyes with a tone of seriousness "I mean, I really do care for your safety. So stop trying to impress me with speed faster than mine, and do your best to stay alive" he asked

"Oh alright… but I'm still running" she said defiantly "If I can handle boxcercising, I can handle a light jog with you" she said stubbornly

"Fine, just don't try to go all 'mach 3' on me or anything" he said with a laugh

"Oh, I won't, I hate this feeling. I feel so damn sick and tired, like how you feel after having a cold for like a week" she said, trying to relay just how bad she felt

"I understand, just get some rest. And heck, you can have some of the snacks we brought. I'm just going to check the perimeter and make sure we don't have spies" he said, thinking back to the man playing the odd music.

"Ok, just don't take too long" she said, blowing a kiss to him.

"Me? Take long? Ha" he said with a laugh as he bounded into the forest

He scoured the nearby undergrowth for the loose hope of finding this mysterious stranger, but ultimately found no such thing. He returned saddened by the loss of whatever this person was, but still happy that he and Amy could enjoy some downtime together.

The sun was peaking up in the sky, indicating that the day was roughly three o'clock, but to be sure he took out his phone to check. It read 2:42 p.m. "Damn… close enough" he laughed

"You really brought your phone?" she asked, noticing him checking the time

"Uhm… yeah" he said slowly, curious why it was such a surprise

"Cool. I thought you just brought it so I would shut up about you never being in contact to me" she laughed

"Typically I do" he replied with his own laugh "But naw, I was just checking the time. It's going to such learning that I have no way to charge this" he said

"Yeah… I doubt we will be finding a nice place to bunk tonight" she said slightly saddened

"Honestly, I'm just surprised you didn't bring twelve suitcases on this trip" he laughed as she threw a hammer at him, to which he dodged at the last second

"You sexist dick" she said with a slight chuckle "Come on, we still have to reach this 'Darkwave' before night fall" she said, getting up

"Alright, you want me to carry you?" he asked friendly

"Naw, I got it" she replied and begun jogging off. He watched to make sure that she didn't have a limp or anything, confident she will be able to run on her own, he quickly ran to catch up to her and the two jogged into the east, running along the forest's edge. An eerie melody following them as they continued.

The continued to run until they came to a hillside, where they looked down upon a large and sprawled out city. It easily was twice the size of Central, if not a third take. The entire city seemed to be mechanized, as if someone opened up a watch and exposed all the gears as a city. And even with such a characteristic to the city, Sonic could still pull parralles from it and a normal city.

He could see the stores, he could see the buildings, he saw parks (albeit, entirely mechanized) and he saw the streets. It was just a grand version of Central City, done with gears and springs rather than trees and normal buildings.

"Whoa Ames, you ever see anything like this?" Sonic asked, looking around to see where Hill Top Zone even was anymore, convinced he must have missed it

"It… is something alright. I betcha this is exactly what Thoice meant for us to find" she reaffirmed, stretching her calf muscles out.

"Oh easily, this has 'Metal Sonic' written all over it, despite the distinct lake of his face being everywhere. Easily the biggest difference between him and Eggman." He replied with a laugh

The two lightly jogged down to the city's gates, which towered well above them. Sonic was no math major, but he had ran his fair distance in his life so he looked up and was able to guess it was roughly a good three-hundred meter tall gate. "Why would they need such a large gate?" he whispered to Amy as they got within range

"Maybe they are at war?" she replied, unsure of her own answer

He nodded, but was not convinced. "Metal Sonic wouldn't make such tall walls if they didn't serve a reason" he thought as he looked around. He was able to quickly figure that this giant gate was the only way in or out of the city. But that didn't seem to make sense to Sonic, as that would make trade difficult.

They approached the city's gate, where two incredibly large robots. They had an incredibly large build, as in they were easily three times the size of Big the Cat, and they bellowed steam from vents placed on their chest. They were polished bronze, and carried a very large spear that seemed to cackle with electricity at the tip. Despite their size, they looked as if they could move very fast if need be. "Gotta be careful, eh? Now this is Metal Sonic's work" Sonic grinned

"HALT. WHO GOES THERE?" the one to the left asked, as the two crossed their spears to block the gate's entrance.

"Uhm… we are travelers?" Sonic replied, not sure what else to say

"STATE YOUR RANK!" the one to the right asked, its beady red eyes staring right down at Sonic, as if analyzing him

"Crap, if they can scan me, they'll know in a matter of seconds" he thought madly as his ears picked up some odd sound

Again he heard the sound of heavy bass, mixed with weird electronic sounding gizmo noises. He would never be able to understand what he was listening to, but he did remember Tails explaining to him about new-wave music's such as Dub-step and Techno. Neither worked with Sonic, being one who liked some good old Rock and Grunge, but still.

The sound continued to play, almost getting more aggressive as its pitch seemed to get louder. Sonic covered his ears, as to block the sound out as Amy did the same. The robots jittered for a second, shaking where they stood. Then, as abrupt as it started, the sound ended and the robots continued to stand where they were.

"As you were civilian" the robots said, as they slowly drew their weapons from the gate's entrance, thus allowing Amy and Sonic entrance. They didn't question what happened, they just walked inside and tried to blend in.

"What just happened?" Amy whispered

"No idea… but it helped, right" he replied

They walked inside, and were blown away by just what they saw. The city was more than just gears and springs, the people were too. Everyone was either a full-robot, designed to look like an animal or part-animal with robotic parts over-lapping them. They mingled in the streets, mocking the civilization the hedgehogs came from.

They were out in front of coffee shops, drinking what looked like coffee. They walked the streets with their polite clothes and kind personalities. Stores had gears and clocks parts in the windows, as if they were clothing items. Mannequins were outfitted with gears and springs with signs like 'the spring style' with them.

It was almost too much for Sonic, who loved nature and tended to abhor this, much technology in one place. It was giving him a bad vibe, namely cause he didn't see anyone else who was completely organic. "Yo Ames, have you seen anyone who wasn't a robot?" he whispered

"Uhm… no…" she said, her eyes just panning over the city.

A robotic hedgehog walked up to them and tipped his robotic hat to them and said "Greetings newcomers. My, are you in the current 'flesh-simulation' outfits. Damn, those are convincing" he said with a laugh

"Uhm… yeah" Sonic said "Yeah, that's us. Trying out the newest model. Ya like it?" he asked sarcastically

"Like it? I love it. Gee, almost makes me miss the good 'ol days" the man said as he then walked off to the crowd

Sonic and Amy decided to leave the middle of the street and mingle into the crowd. They went to the loca coffee shop and took a seat. Their waitress, a half-robo fox came to them and asked "So, what'll it be?"

"Can we get a menu?" Amy asked

"Oh, of course" the fox replied as she printed a menu from her chest "Here you go"

Amy gingerly grabbed it, still weirded out by what just happened and read. "Uhm, I'll take some mineral water. And so will he" she said, ordering for Sonic

"Alrighty" she replied, grabbing back the menu. She then left to the establishment and returned in matter of seconds with two tall cups of water. "That'll be three hundred rings" she stated

Sonic threw her the rings and accepted the drink. The fox left, leaving Sonic and Amy to drink and talk about all this in peace.

"So… what is your take on this so far?" she asked

"Metal Sonic is up to something. The people here are far too happy…" he said, unable to shake the feeling.

"Yeah… I agree. But what are we to do? We can't just liberate an entire city based on our feelings. If these people are actually happy, shouldn't we let them continue?" she asked

"Yes… typically I'd agree. But what if Metal Sonic is controlling them with some kind of mind-control device or something. I mean… they are all part robot, to some degree…." He begun to say

"Yeah. I'm just amazed there is no one else here who isn't a robot…." She agreed

Some loud cheering and chanting was heard down the street, as some type of buzzer was being played. It sounded climatic, as if someone was distilling pure fun into sound. Sonic couldn't help but grin at the sound, when Amy gave him a look.

"Why are you smiling so weird?" she asked

"I… don't know. But I just feel happier…" he said, unable to reason why

"Weird…. What is all that commotion about" she stated as she got up and took Sonic with her

The two walked down to the crowd where people were hooting and hollering. Something was being said, but so many voices were overlapping that Sonic couldn't dare make it out. "Excuse me sir, what is this all about" he asked some robotic otter

"Oh, it's the arena. Today is a Wednesday, which means it's time for the battle" he said happily and went back to the conversation

"ARENA?" Sonic asked right at Amy, unable to figure if he should be angry or happy

"Yeah… want to watch. I mean, we got nothing else better to do" she said, unsure of why Thoice would send them here

"I guess… We can at least figure what Metal Sonic does for these arena fights" he replied. The two walked in the line to where ever these people were heading

A good few blocks later, they turned out of the alleyways and streets and their destination was completely obvious. It was an incredibly large coliseum, made out of gears and so forth like the rest of the city. It was a marvel of how beautiful it looked, always ticking away and changing its angles and… well so forth. Sonic couldn't help but admire it, almost wishing he brought Tails along just for this.

"Impressive, isn't it" Amy whispered

"I'd say. At least Metal Sonic can do decent cities" he replied, still on his guard

The crowd funneled inside, where there were seats all around a oval arena. The ground of the arena was in sand, but there were odd depressions in the sand, as if panels were hidden underneath them. "So he can change the field at will, eh? Impressive" Sonic thought, already having dealt with those kinds of things so many times in his past.

They took their seat between a robotic chicken and a half-robo wolf. The crowd was cheering and talking loudly, but nothing was discernible. About a good three minutes passed when the giant hologram appeared over the arena's base floor.

'Greetings… Welcome to the twenty-fifth arena duel of the year … Put your hands together for … ROUND 1…' Came across the screen, as scrolling text

"Really… that's all it takes to announce now-a-days?" Sonic asked

"I guess so, I just hope it isn't violent" Amy said

From four separate rooms on the ground floor, opened doors. From the doors came what would be the fighters. They were all fully robotic wolfs. They were painted in obvious colors thought, a green, red, blue and orange respectively. They came to the middle of the arena and looked at each other with odd intent in their eyes.

"Wait… are they going to…" she begun to ask as the bulletin came up again

'Four enter … One leaves. Round, Match, Begin …' scrolled across

The wolves howled at each other and rushed at one-another. The blue one charged the orange one. The orange went for red, red went for orange. The green one went to ambush the blue. Red and orange clashed in the middle, swinging their claws down upon each other, the sound of metal being racked echoing throughout the stadium. Blue almost reached the two, when green pounced upon him.

Green hacked away at the blue on, tearing away at his chest plate. Blue struggled, and tried to kick the green wolf off but to no avail. After a few moments, blue lay limp and beaten. Green punched through the chest cavity and took out some giant electric battery-looking thing. Then he rushed to go ambush the remaining fighters

During that time, orange had broken the red wolf's leg, giving him a distinct limp. Red, on the other hand, had broken an arm of orange, leaving him with a dangling limp that flopped useless from his torso. Green saw the situations and took red first, tacking him and punching through his chest. Red exploded after green leapt from him, and charged orange.

Orange rolled from green's attack, and swept at the wolf's legs. He fell to his ground as orange brought his claw down upon him. Three times the claw dropped and three times green blocked the attack, until both of their arms shattered against each others, leaving green with one arm to his armless opponent. Orange realized this and tried to run away, only to be pounced and brutally destroyed.

Green howled to the sky in a blood-soaked frenzy, as the crowd cheered mindlessly for what they just watched. The hologram went up to read 'Green has one … Does he survive?' it asked

"Does it survive, yes clearly he does. Those poor people…" Amy said, anger and sadness welling up inside her

Around Sonic and Amy, people clicked on buttons that had no revealed themselves on the side of the chair. One marked with a 'Y' and the other 'N'. People clicked away and the hologram kept updating the numbers. Finally it finished tallying.

'3,294 Vote Yes … 2,413 Vote No … Green has earned his freedom' the text said as it scrolled to the right and off the screen

People cheered and the plate below green shifted and lowered him down below the stadium, as the people cheered for the show. A couple of flying drones came onto the field and mindlessly picked up the corpses of the fallen, while people talked over the match they just watched

"Whoa… So this is what Metal Sonic does for fun eh? I doubt that green wolf got his freedom anyways" Sonic said, anger rising in him

"Calm down Sonic, remember we are in his city. We can't afford to be detected" she said, worry in her voice from what she just saw

"I … know. But damn it Ames, I can't just sit by and watch" he said, his fist clenched in anger

"I know" she said, as she took his hand in hers "Just hold my hand and relax" she said, trying to help

"Thanks Ames" he replied, and let himself be lost in his feelings for her. His anger slowly faded, but never entirely left. People started cheering for round two. "Damn … there's more?" he asked

'Mortal Round … Prepare yourselves …' the text said

"Wait… a mortal round… so those were… robots?" Sonic asked in confusion

"I guess… let's watch" Amy replied with anticipation in her eyes

Two doors opened up, and through the door opposite of where they sat, came out a very large robo-bear. The guy looked menacingly as ever, with a glare of red in his left eye which was robotic. The man had his left side robotic, and thus much larger. His right side was enhanced with the robotic tech, having gears and springs throughout the muscles. His chest vented steam as he heaved with each of his step. "I'd hate for whoever has to battle this guy" Sonic thought as the challenger made his way out from underneath Sonic and Amy.

With his back turned to them, was a small reddish dog, a husky to be exact. He appeared to be no older than twelve, and looked as if he had no chance against such a large and formidable target. Sonic sat straight up in his chair, only to have Amy's hand pull him back

"Don't do anything stupid, at least not yet" she whispered

He stared out at the battlefield, not sure how to save the kid.

'Two Mortals enter … One mortal is given the chance for freedom …' the monitor scrolled by.

'Ready … Set … Fight' it exclaimed, as the crowd cheered for blood. Sonic just sat there, thinking madly about what he would do. What can he do?


Ok, so i pushed a deadline. I'm still working on Chp 8 to 'Mobian: Legacy', since i want to make it flow climatically... its ... tedious really. I love and hate that world so much. But i digress, i'm releasing this for 2 reasons.

1) I want some feedback, to see if you people are all still ready to see what happens next (and any thing else you want to send to me (O.C.'s and locations are still being accepted, as they always will be))

2) You people would NOT let me take a break. I ended the first one, expecting to get a good three or so weeks away from writting this, so i could catch up & finish Legacy... sadly, this did not happen. So, here ya go then.

I'm also REALLY sorry. I meant to reward the fans by releasing TWO chapters at once, as my sort of 'thanks' to your support... so, tell ya what. If you guys Review this with LOVE, i'll release chapters 2 & 3 together. Deal?

Working on others,
