Chapter One: You Have Powers?
"Hey Sonic? What does it feel like to go really really really fast?" Jess asked.
"Uh…well the nice breeze in your hair, the way things just speed past you…wait, why?"
"Hm. Just asking."
It's been only a week since "The Pillow Fight of the Century" and about a month after the almost-battle with Deep Sea and his fellow minions. The end of Planet Mobius was delayed; saved by the heroes of the planet…along with their new friend Kristen, and their not-so-new-but-recent friend, Jess. Her formal name is Princess Jessica Maria Russo; yep that's right, Princess. Jess is the princess of Planet Songia, but was captured by the evil Aquarians but escaped. She was forced to betray her new friends, but helped save their planet with a special song…
"Hey Jess! Do you have time to test your powers?" Tails asked.
"Wait a sec…she has powers?" Knuckles questioned. Jess cleared her throat in a way of trying to catch attention.
"Um…yea…I do have powers…do you have a problem with that?" Jess retorted. "And yes Tails, I am free." She added sweetly, completely changing her tone. Knuckles huffed.
"I heard that huff."
"I don't care."
"I bet you do care when I tell you what I got…" Jess said in a sing-song voice, taunting Knuckles. He growled, but then smirked.
"I do not care what you got and I bet it won't even humiliate me." Knuckles rolled his eyes while telling her that, but he was surprised at the evil grin on the Princess's face.
"Wait…wha'cha got…there?" The red echidna asked pointing to a certain video tape in Jess's hands.
"Nothing…you don't wanna know…oh and Tails! Where should we test?"
"In your backyard is good. Luckily I brought my equipment with me." Tails smiled as he revealed a small notepad and a pencil. Jess nodded, also grinning. She got up from the creamy couch that she was sitting on and went to the backyard. Tails, Knuckles, Sonic, Kristen, Dagger, and Spike followed. Shadow came along also, appearing uninterested while deep inside he was curious.
"Ok Tails, what should I do?"
"Um…"
"I should help her first, Tails!" Knuckles smirked.
"Uh, sure, just don't throw--"
Knuckles dug a large rock from the ground and threw it towards Jess.
"—rocks." Tails finished.
"Hey, wait!" Jess yelled as she ducked. Knuckles kept throwing rocks at her.
"Stop--" She ducked again. A boulder almost hit her head.
"Hey I could've gotten a concussion from that!" She yelled. A small pebble hit her forehead.
"Ok, that's it!" She raised her arms and the rocks stopped in midair.
"Uhh…wait Jess, WAIT!" Knuckles yelled, a sweatdrop appearing on his forehead.
"Hpmh. Run while you can." Jess smiled and with a swift movement, she sent the rocks back toward Knuckles.
"AHHHHHH!!" he screamed while running around. No matter how many turns and curves he made, the rocks kept on following him.
"…So what's next, Tails?" Jess asked innocently.
"Umm…maybe we should take a break now…"
