Sleepless in Spagonia I decided that I wanted to do a few Sonamy stories, so I'm starting my second which is going to be a two part story, one set in Spagonia the other set in Shamar. The first is more about Sonic and Amy but the second I'm going to try and add some action into it, so enjoy.
A Sonic Unleashed Story
Part one
The Night Before The FestivalDisclaimer: I don't own Sonic The Hedgehog or any characters from the series
Sonic and Chip
On Their Way To Spagonia University
It had taken a day to get to Chu-Nan by Tornado and a whole night to get through to the temple, taking into account the journey back, Sonic The Werehog was feeling more than a little drained. As he sauntered sleepily back towards the university in which Professor Pickle was situated, the small pixie, Chip, flew gently behind him, nibbling on a bar of chocolate.
"What's the matter Sonic, are you tired?" enquired Chip." We can stop off at the professors if you'd like?"
Sonic grunted, stopped and sighed. He looked around at the lights lining the rooftops and the streets, before lifting his huge hands up and taking a long hard look at them.
"Is it your new form that's bugging you?" asked Chip.
"Yes and no." said Sonic." This body is pretty useful, especially at night, considering how tough those monsters are, but..." Sonic trailed off. As he did, he stared off in the direction of the university, as if trying to make out someone standing just outside. Whilst he stared, Chip floated idly into his line of vision, making the Werehog flick him gently out of the way.
"Anyway, it's not just this form, this little "Adventure" of ours, Chip, is showing just how impatient I can get." he said gruffly.
Chip, now sitting on Sonics' shoulder, looked puzzled for a moment.
"Impatient, I can't say I've noticed you getting impatient Sonic." He said. "Unless it's cus I haven't offered you any chocolate yet, you only had to ask!"
Sonic, turning his head to look at Chip out of the corner of his eye, simply narrowed his eyes and grunted once more.
"What I mean is, most of my adventures end within either a few hours or a few days of beginning. South Island took a day, that business with Chaos took 4-5 days, same for Shadow and the Space Colony ARK. But this, putting the planets back together has taking a week and half so far and I gotta feeling that it's gonna take a lot longer. With waiting for the Professor to work out the Gaia Manuscripts, and all the travelling we've got to do, I think my patience might wear thin before long."
Chip, who had no idea what any of these place name's and people were supposed to mean, simply nodded. Silence descended among the two as they continued to walk towards the University.
Amy Rose
Outside Spagonia University
Amy Rose had come to Spagonia, in her endless quest to catch Sonic The Hedgehog, a few nights previously. Luckily for her she had met Sonic, the only problem being that the first time they met he was in his Werehog form and she had failed to recognise him, the second time Sonic had defeated a couple of large Dark Gaia monsters and fled before she had even a chance to talk to him. After Professor Pickle had explained the situation to her, Amy began yearning even more for Sonic to stop avoiding her, especially during the night. In the past few days, whenever Sonic went to speak to the Professor and Amy was able to catch him, he either ignored what she was saying, if it was to do with "Dates" and "Love" or only stood around long enough for a "Hello". When it came to the night-time , Amy had only been able to catch Sonic once a couple of nights before, and during that meeting Sonic showed a lot of signs of discomfort, not the usual discomfort of her attention, but the discomfort of her seeing what he had become. It had hurt Amy to see him like that, so in her infinite wisdom she had tried to cheer him up.
Several Days Earlier
"Hi Sonic, are you going to see the professor?" said Amy cheerily. Startled by the fact that Amy had managed to catch him at night-time, Sonic stood still for a moment, not being able to think what to do. Amy thought for him.
"Surprised to see me, well I'm not surprised I can tell you since you've been avoiding me!" she said. Sonics' only reaction was to blink; he did not want Amy to see him, at least not in his werehog form. Sonic had tried his hardest to avoid her, but as he constantly told himself, Amy Rose always found him. As he continued to think in his frozen state, Amy moved from her spot by the pillars and circled round him, taking in everything about him.
"I can't believe it's you in there." She said with amazement. As she spoke she stroked his quills; sonic felt a tingle course through him as she did. Moving round to face him, Amy looked straight into his eyes.
"No matter what the package you're still my Sonic." She said sincerely. As she did she reached up, pulled Sonics' head towards her and kissed his forehead.
Sonic was shocked, Amy had never kissed him in any way, shape or form since they'd know each other, and this was entirely unexpected. After finally being able to regain his sense, Sonic breathed in heavily, making sure he wasn't about to make a fool of himself.
"Tha-Thanks Amy that means a lot." He said before disappearing behind her into the drafty corridors of Spagonia University.
Amy Rose
The Present
It had a been a fleeting moment, but Amy was sure that it had helped Sonic a little, considering he didn't try to back away when she had kissed him.
"That's always a good sign" She commented wryly. Looking off into the dimly lit streets further ahead, Amy could see the large, lumbering shape of Sonic The Werehog.
It was time to put her plan into action, but she couldn't be sure if Sonic would try to avoid her again, though she fully expected him to.
"He always does his best to avoid me, sometimes I wonder if I should just give up on that Hedgehog." She thought. To Amy's surprise Sonic walked up the steps leading to the university, a small, weak smile on his lips, his expression one of tiredness and exhaustion.
"Hi Amy, good to see ya." He said, tiredly.
"And then he smiles that smile at me, he keeps on being the person he is, and I can't help but remember why I love him so much" she thought.
Sonic
A Few Minutes Earlier
The Steps leading To The UniversityAs Sonic climbed the steps, he began to realise he had never really been in control of himself and his desires. Spontaneous and impulsive, the professor had once said, and Sonic was beginning to agree with him. For the most part of his friendship/relationship with Amy, Sonic had spent half of the time running from her and the other half running to her. Granted most of the time he was running to her was because she needed to be saved, but other rarer moments, like now, as Sonic realised, he actually wanted to see her. Sonic The Hedgehog had a willing conscious desire to speak to, and therefore be in the presence of, Amy Rose. The thought, surprisingly did not shock Sonic, but strangely made him want to speak to her all the more.
"It must have been that kiss." He grumbled underneath his breath. Chip, who was floating just behind Sonic, whizzed forward and stopped directly in front of him.
"Kiss?" he said."Are you thinking about Amy?"
Sonic, not want his train of thought to be de-railed, thwacked Chip gently out of the way and continued his slow ascent of the steps.
Amy had always been a friend to Sonic, especially in his adventures, and like Tails, she had always been there when he needed her the most.
"Hey, what you do that for?" Chip said, testily. Sonic without looking batted him gently away again,
Sonic did not often think of girls, in fact, the whole idea of Boyfriend and Girlfriend was never something he thought about much. Girls were girls, to Sonic The Hedgehog, the times that Sonic DID think about girls, however, were largely due to Amy.
"Will you stop that, you're giving me a tummy ache!" Chip shouted. Sonic without turning said
"Well stop eating so much chocolate, and don't bother me I'm trying to think!" he added
Whilst she did have a tendency to behave like a star-struck, love-struck girl at times, it was the moments when Amy acted like an adult, that made Sonic take interest in her. When the time came for a tender moment between the two of them, Sonic, in a way, looked forward to them, because Amy would behave seriously and sincerely, like last night.
"Well it's not my fault that you can't think and talk at the same time!" Chip said, some distance away. Sonic brought his great hands to his head and pinched the ends of his nose, growling slightly in frustration.
He looked up towards the University. It had not taking long to walk up the steps, and he was almost to where he fully expected Amy to be waiting for him.
"Ugh, I never get enough time to think." He muttered. As he did, he turned and looked to see Chip flying up to him, with great earnest.
"Or peace and quiet" he added. Sonic and Amy
Spagonia University
Sonic having now reached the entrance to the University, could not think of a single thing to say so he continued to stare at Amy, hoping she would say or do something.
His hopes were answered.
"Sonic you look awful, you need rest too." she said, worry lacing her voice. "Follow me; you can use the room the professor's given me."
Sonic, realising the look on Amy's face as her determined look, so no rhyme nor reason to argue with her.
"Sure thing Amy." He said wearily Sonic and Amy
Amy Rose's Room
Spagonia University
The room itself was dark, only lit by the light of the moon. Amy had been given this room by the Professor when she had arrived and whilst she had been staying there, she had made the most of it." Getting the world back together is sure taking its toll on you Sonic." She said softly, sitting next to him on the windowsill. Sonic turned his head towards her and shrugged.
"Even when the sun goes and the moon comes up, Amy, there's still work to do, I kinda thought being active at night in such a useful body would make this all twice as easy, but it seems to have made it just as hard."
"But you should learn when to take a break, Sonic, that's why I've taken you here so you can rest, and then tomorrow you can come with me to The Festival of Unity." She said firmly.
"The Festival Of Unity?" In all his travels Sonic had never heard of this festival, then again he had never been to Spagonia before.
"It's a festival they hold once a year here, it's all about working in harmony and pulling together, it's a celebration of peace, but it's also an excuse to throw a wild party, so we could maybe make it a date." She added innocently.
It took Sonic a few moments to register what Amy had just said, but when it did, he was surprised to find that he didn't think it a bad idea taking Amy out to see this festival, and calling it a date.
"Anything for a time-out in this world adventure" he thought.
Turning his head slightly, Sonic looked out of the window, onto the city staring at all of the lights dotted around.
"I'll just leave you to rest now." Amy said tenderly. She got as far as the door before Sonic stretched his arm out and gently pulled Amy back to him. Sonic looked tiredly into her eyes and for the first time, asked Amy Rose a question she'd been dying to hear for years.
"Amy, could you stay with me till morning, if that's okay?"
Amy, whose heart was now beating so hard that she felt sure that it would burst out of her chest, was desperately trying to stop herself from squealing and throwing her arms around him.
"Sonics' not in the mood for you to be overbearing and girly, Amy, you've gotta be strong for him." She thought to herself over and over again. Finally she managed to answer.
"Sure thing, Sonic." Saying this, she moved over to Sonics' side on the sill lifted her legs up, and rested her head on Sonics giant arms, his new fur feeling soft against her face. Sonic, moving himself into a comfortable sitting position, rested his head against the wall next to him, and then shifted his arm so that it encircled Amy. As he did he could feel her own arms wrapping gently around his waist keeping her to him.
In small room in Spagonia University Sonic the Werehog, slept for the first time in nigh on two weeks.
In the same room, Amy Rose, unable to sleep through the excitement of Sonic holding her, lay next to him all night long wishing that the moment would never end and thinking of the festival.
