Power
By: Iris Sweetheart
Part One
You know saving the world is actually pretty cool. Lots of people know you, you get to travel to different places, and you even meet up with the strangest characters around. Heh, might as well make it my life to travel the world and see all that I can see. But still I need some fun here and there with good old Eggman. …Yeah that guy really gives me a good laugh every now and then. Throws the best 'parties' too. Lots of robots, plenty of explosions, and well placed traps… but none will ever defeat this hedgehog.
…
What's that you say? What do I think power is? Well it depends on how you define power. Whether it be physical power or something tangible like the power of the chaos emeralds. In fact there's lots of different types of power. Mental, physical, spiritual, tangible… the list is practically endless with everyone's personal definition of powers. But you did ask me what I think power is… heh well I hope I don't scare you but hang onto your seats.
I really can't explain what power is for me. It's not something physical I can prove, Knuckles fills in that definition. Power isn't something that's totally mental for me. I'd rather leave that for ol' Eggman, I mean he's practically a genius… or so he seems. Spiritual? Probably Shadow, he's pretty deep and doesn't say much. Tangible… can't say much about that one either. To me… power… is a mix between a mental game and the emotional rush I get from it. Confused? Let me explain it to you.
The mental game of power is not just outsmarting the other… it's also pulling them along… almost as if they were your puppet. You see very few may notice this but… I am the master at mental games. I can make someone think one way when I'm really leading them in a different direction. Let's take Eggman for example since I love playing around with him so much. He sees me as an annoyance, a hindrance to his 'plans of domination' or whatever he calls it. But it's not like that… not anymore. I'm more of a rival for the ol' doctor, sort of like what Shadow and I have between each other. Come on you gotta believe me! He's sending me invitations to personally stop his plans of world destruction! See what I mean? Mental games!
But Eggman is just a 'light appetizer' or so to speak. The real fun comes in with Amy. Why Amy you ask? Why the annoying girl with everlasting energy? …Heh well to put it cautiously… I'm more of a teaser than a lover if you catch my drift. I'll just leave you with that thought for now.
