Authors Notes/other stuff: I decided to actually write a story based on something that popped into my head a while ago. I thought it was interesting...Even though the title is horrible. Oh yeah, I don't own Sonic the hedgehog or any of his woodland friends, nor am I employed at SEGA of America/Japan/Europe or Sonic Team. If I were, you would be seeing good Sonic games. Burn
Station Square, it's a giant metropolis defined by it's towering skyscrapers, fast cars and busy citizens. Today was no different. The streets were lined with vehicles full of angry humans honking their horns and yelling to one another to move. The sidewalks were entirely crowded by the denizens who would walk by glancing at a newspaper or talking on their cellphone. Occasionally they would exchange paths, they always did. This always resulted in both of them delivering an intertwined apology as they stumbled to regain composure.
Unforgivably, the sun shone down on the city, sunlight was reflected off of the giant buildings and the windshields of cars which made everything look hotter than it really was. Clouds were absent on this day and the locals were taking notice, by wiping the perspiration off of their brow or holding one of the aforementioned newspapers over their head in a feeble attempt to keep warm.
However, no one had complained about the weather much anymore. After the city was attacked a few years ago by Doctor Eggman and his henchmen, the citizens are happy that the city was not still damaged and that they were able to reconstruct everything so fast. This was due in part to the helpfulness of the legendary Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends. They had saved this city several times from the onslaught of attacks that Eggman had initiated. Everyone knew who Sonic was in Station Square, everyone loved him and his friends. The mayor official recognized them as citizens and awarded them as heroes. Every once and a while, Sonic would come back just to bask in the glory of being recognized as a hero, and the subsequent parades that would follow due to his presence.
On the porch of a small ice cream parlor sat many tables and chairs for patrons to sit and eat. Sitting in one of these seats was a familiar pink hedgehog, dressed in her usual red dress. Her red and white striped boots tapped the ground as she extended her tongue out to lick her ice cream cone.
"Mmm. You were right, Cream." Amy Rose spoke to her friend sitting across from her. "The ice cream here is the best I've had in a long time. In fact, I can't remember the last time I've eaten ice cream." She sighed.
The brown rabbit across from her smiled and offered her ice cream cone to the blueish chao next to her. Cheese was his name, he was her lifetime companion and friend. He squeaked in approval of the cone.
"Chao! Chao!" He smiled and fluttered into the air.
Both Amy and Cream giggled slightly and continued to eat. The harsh sunlight was reflected from the golden bracelets across Amy's wrists and into the eyes of Cream, so much that she had to shield her eyelids with her hands.
"Hey, Amy?" Cream asked.
"Yeah?" Amy answered sweetly.
The petite rabbit stumbled for the right words for a few seconds and spoke, "How are things with you and Sonic? Ever since the Doctor Eggman stopped attacking, I haven't seen much of him. Is he okay?"
"I haven't caught sight of Sonic for a while." She spoke, "I wonder if he and Tails are on another adventure or something. He never asks me to go with him. I mean, just once is all I'm asking. I told him I'll keep my hands to myself, but he always says no."
"But there's been no attacks for months, Amy! I'm worried he might be hurt!"
"Chao!" Cheese interjected.
Amy laughed, "Sonic? Hurt? Don't scare me like that! He'll probably show up any minute now and confess his love for me.." Amy spoke with a slightly seductive tone as she clasped her hands together and rested her chin on them. She looked up into the sky and sighed with happiness. The pink hedgehog looked up into the sky for several minutes until Cream spoke. "Amy, why don't we go shopping now? Please?"
Amy blinked for a moment and was brought back to reality, and not willingly. "Yeah, okay.." She said dimly and stood up from her chair.
Cream stood up and ran off with Cheese holding onto her ear, clinging for survival. "C'mon, Amy! We don't wanna miss any good sales!"
Amy looked at the rabbit and smiled. "Wait for me!" She ran after her and bumped right into someone's stomach.
The hedgehog was flung to the ground and winced. "Ahh..." She stood back up and looked at who she had run into, it was a muscle-bound Dalmatian who was
dressed in a police uniform. Amy looked at his badge and grinned slightly. "Ohmygosh, I'm so sorry, sir!" She cried, trying to defend her reckless behavior. "Are you okay?"
The officer bent down to look at Amy face to face and stared into her eyes.
"Uhh, can I help you?" She asked.
"Is your name Amy Rose?" The dalmatian asked and placed one of his hands near his utility belt, Amy couldn't see where he was reaching.
"Yeah, why?" She tilted her head at the cop.
The officer turned away from the hedgehog and called to his partner, a black vulpine. "Please stay right here, ma'am." He said to Amy and turned to the fox. They whispered to each other for a short time, confusing Amy. "Excuse me, what's going on?" the pink one asked.
When she spoke, the dalmatian officer turned from his partner and back to Amy. Before the hedgehog got an answer the officer grabbed her arm with his free hand. "Ma'am, I'm afraid we're going to have to take you down to the station." He said calmly and routinely.
Amy was shocked when she was grabbed and tried to comprehend what was being said. "What? I didn't do anything!" She cried. Surely running into a police officer was not a crime?
"Lady, you need to calm down, we have a warrant for your arrest, we're going to take you in." The officer said, he had been though this many times before.
"Warrant? I didn't do anything wrong!" Amy screamed and struggled against the police officer's grip. "Let me go, you're making a mistake!"
Sensing a struggle, the officer quickly tightened his grip on Amy's arm and harshly pushed her against the wall of the parlor. "Hands behind your back!" He screamed in her ear as he roughly pulled her left arm behind her.
Cream was watching this whole ordeal and spoke to the fox officer. "Please stop, she never did anything wrong!" The officer turned to her and told her to stay away. "This doesn't concern you ma'am, we're here to take this criminal away, don't get involved."
"Cream, help me!" Amy screamed at her as the officer had her pushed against the wall, her face was getting smushed against the bricks as she spoke. Suddenly, she heard a ratcheting sound and something cold tighten around her left wrist. "What are you doing?" She asked as the officer then pulled her other arm back and locked her wrists together with handcuffs.
The hedgehog struggled against the cuffs, but they bit at her wrists due to the tightness of them. "Hey, can you loosen these? It hurts!" She asked but the officer ignored her as he placed his hands on her shoulders and began to search her body. Amy screeched and began to kick at him. "Get you hands off me you creep! I didn't do anything! Help!" She thrashed about, obviously distressed.
When the dalmatian concluded his search, he confiscated her Piko Piko hammer and examined it. "So, carrying a concealed weapon, huh?" The officer gave the hammer to his partner and grabbed Amy's arm."C'mon, missy." He began to walk with her.
"Give me back my hammer, it's not a weapon!" Amy screamed and did not walk willingly with her arresting officer. "I'm innocent! Cute and innocent!" The officer ignored her as he walked her to a patrol car and opened up the back. "Get in, you have the right to remain silent, anything you say can be used against you..."
Amy listened to him talk and slumped inside the back of the police car, tears in her eyes. She whispered to herself as he read her her rights. "I didn't do anything...this is a mistake...I should go with them to clear this up...at least." Tears ran down her rosy cheeks as she tried to wipe them away, but she was unable to move her hands apart due to the short chain of the handcuffs locking her wrists behind her.
Meanwhile, on the top of a nearby building, a figure in a black cloak observed as a white police car drove off and continued down the street.
"Perfect."
