Chapter One: Away
I believe everyone has a right to a story that sucks. This would be mine. It came right off the top of my head so I put it down. I know it's a stupid story so you don't have to let me know.
Warning: Violence, slurs, and mention of rape
For years I've been thinking……wondering what did I do to deserve this. Sure, I was a bit needy as a girl. Perhaps it was my childish yearning that drove him away. Well, I'm passed that now and it doesn't matter anymore. I have given up my childish desire for a true… blue love. No more of that. Now, I start anew……..and hope to forget my past forever.

It's late at night and Amy gathers all of her things. Everyone is in a deep slumber and far away in their dreams. Quietly, Amy sneaks out of the door and starts on her way to the city.


"…..Morning everyone…..does anyone know where Amy is?" Cream settled down in a chair at the table.

"No….I haven't seen her." Tails followed behind. "Sonic……..do you know?"

Sonic came into the kitchen, a saddened look on his face. This was the first time anyone's ever seen him look like that.

"She's not here."

"We know that, but do-"

"She's gone Tails. She's gone and is never coming back."

"But what-"

Sonic handed him a letter and exited the room.

Tails read the letter out loud, his words getting heavier each word he spoke.

My dearest friends,

I didn't want to leave you like this, but it was the only way. I am broken-hearted…….forever will be. I have decided to hang up my hammer and move on in life. Hopefully then you will all forget about me as I will try to forget you. Please forgive me and live fruitful lives.

Amy

The table went silent.

"Amy's…….gone?" asked Cream

"This has to be a mistake." said Chris. "Why would she go?"

"She wants us to forget her………I don't want to forget Amy!" cried Cream.

"Where do you think she would go? Father than the city?"

"It looks that way." said Tails, "We have to find her."


Amy looked about the huge city. She had no idea where she was; the city she once protected looked much better than the rat-infested dump this was.

"Hey……you look new around here."

Amy looked up a tall, blonde woman with brown eyes. She wore a brown leather skirt with a red tank and high-heeled leather boots. Her lips were painted fire-engine red.

"How can you tell?"

The woman pointed at her attire. "Your clothing……you're not from around here."

Amy shook her head. "No…..I'm from far away…….and I'm never going back."

"Well, well……I was in the very same situation as you when I left my hometown. I got my heart broken so bad; I had to run somewhere….anywhere but here."

"Me too. The person I fell in love with never returned it, so I left. I couldn't stand looking at his face anymore……it was all too much to bear….."

The girl looked at her for some time, watching the tears slide down her face. "I feel the same pain as well. Come with me little sister…….you can crash with me…."

"Amy……Amy Rose."

"Cassandra Day."

Cassandra's home was a sophisticated penthouse suite overlooking the better part of the city. It was decorated in hues of reds and browns and dotted with crystal chandeliers.

"You live here? It's beautiful Cassandra!"

"…..It's nothing……you know, you could have this too."

Amy looked around in awe. "How?"

Cassandra grasped her shoulders. "Just let loose; I'll show you Treasure."
