Umm, hi. This is my new story. Umm... I dont really know what to say, but, um, enjoy!
Chapter 1–The New Girl
A lilac cat walked silently towards the gates of the private boarding school that, as of today, she was attending. She wore a white school blouse with a collar that stuck out in the most uncomfortable manor. Her dull grey, knee high skirt swayed with the wind as it noisily rushed past. She wore a crimson cardigan over her blouse, with silver buttons done up, disregarding the top and bottom two. Her hands were gloved, with fluffy white cotton acting as bracelets on her violet wrists. A silvery silk ribbon was tied loosely around the collar of the uniform, to symbolize formality. She wore titanium white tights and ruby red ballet flats. The girl found them easier to walk in than ridiculously high, bubblegum pink heels. On the top of her head was her hair which was stuck up in four pointed groups that were a deeper shade of maroon nearer to the tips. Her unique hairstyle was held together by a baby blue ribbon. Her golden eyes darted nervously from left to right, wondering which of the two gates she should enter. The girls name was Blaze. She came from a wealthy family who spoiled her with whatever she desired. But her parents were also ignorant. Blaze had to try everything she could think of to get her parents attention, and that included getting expelled from nearly every school she had ever attended. She didn't mean to cause any harm, but Blaze just wanted attention more than anything. Suddenly her nervousness was replaced with panic as she saw another student joyfully skipping over to her. The girl wore the same uniform as Blaze, which indicated that the girl was in the ninth grade, same as herself. The girl was a hedgehog with pale magenta fur that gleamed in the golden light of the afternoon sun. Blaze swallowed nervously as the girl approached.
"Hi!" The girl beamed, her emerald green eyes were full of excitement. "Are you new here? Well obviously you are. I'm Amy Rose."
Amy extended her gloved hand. She wore thick golden bracelets on each wrist that reflected the suns light into Blaze's eyes, temporarily blinding her. Ignoring the light that burned her eyes, Blaze shook Amy's hand.
"I'm Blaze." She replied, clutching the strap of her bag, which was slung over her shoulder. Blaze didn't like starting new schools, but she knew it was a small price to pay to get even the tiniest slither of attention from her parents. Amy was still smiling. God forbid that Blaze actually asked why. Instead, she just smiled at the over excited hedgehog.
"So, do you need a guide or anything?" Amy asked, staring into Blaze's honey coloured eyes. "I can show you around if you want."
Blaze didn't know if she really wanted showing around, but she didn't want to turn up the offer of possibly making a new friend. 'Might as well get some before I get kicked out of this school.' Blaze thought. Amy was still vacantly waiting for a response.
"Err... Sure." She replied, clutching the strap even harder. But before they even got inside the gates, they saw another figure walking past. This one was another hedgehog, but a shining ivory colour. He had five quills sticking up from his forehead, and two, more feminine curves at the back of his head. He wore the boys equivalent of the ninth grade uniform. A ruby red overcoat over a grey shirt and grey trousers. A silver tie was worn around the collar and plain black shoes were the only thing the boys were allowed to wear. He had his arm around the back of another female student. She was a white bat, wearing the ninth grade uniform, the only difference being that she was wearing the pink boots that Blaze despised so much. The ivory hedgehog looked Blaze's way and gave her a seductive smile. Amy scowled at the sight.
"Who's that?" Blaze said, subtly pointing at the other hedgehog.
"You'll want to ignore that one." She growled, continuing to glare at the ivory hedgehog. "Silver hits on every ninth grader in the school. Lucky you have a friend like me to tell you these things, or you would have had your heart broken quicker than Sonic when he runs around the court in P.E."
Amy seemed to drift off as soon she mentioned this 'Sonic' person. Blaze didn't seem to pay too much attention to Amy though. She was too focused on the ivory hedgehog whose name was apparently Silver. Although Blaze was warned to stay away from him, he had that kind of sparkle in those deep amber eyes that gave Blaze uncomfortable goose bumps.
"Oh, no!" Amy cried when she noticed who Blaze was staring at. Amy stepped in front of Blaze, snapping her out of her trance. "Blaze! I just told you to stay away from Silver. He's bad news."
"Technically, I wasn't near him." Blaze replied smartly. "I was just admiring from afar."
"Well stop admiring," Amy said, grabbing fold of Blaze's wrist fluff and pulling her along. "And start taking in the school."
Blaze didn't find the school layout to be particularly difficult to remember. The main court was located around the centre of the school, next to which was the cafeteria . Several classrooms were located around the top left corner of said court. Opposite the classrooms, next to the cafeteria, were the dormitories. The gymnasium was located opposite the cafeteria and the amphitheatre was next to the gym. Around the bottom right corner of the court was the main office, and straight north of the court was a large football field. Amy seemed happy that Blaze wasn't confused about the school, as most new students were.
" So, you need to get registered don't you?" Amy asked, as the two girls strolled, leisurely across the school campus towards the main office.
"Umm, yeah." Blaze replied, still gripping her bag. She wasn't thinking straight, and Amy knew it.
"What's wrong, Blaze?" Amy asked, stopping Blaze were she was. "I've only just met you and I can tell something's wrong, so don't say it's nothing because it obviously is."
Blaze was slightly taken aback at Amy's sudden ferocity. But she reluctantly answered Amy's question with one of her own.
"Can you tell me about Silver?" Blaze asked, surveying her surroundings, looking for the ivory hedgehog.
"Blaze, I can understand why you like him, I mean, every girl does, but you have to promise not to go after him." Amy's tone was sad, but also strict. "Please?"
Blaze wasn't going to chase after Silver like the other girls obviously did. Blaze hadn't even met the hedgehog. She refused to think that she liked him in any way more than... well, she refused to think that she liked him at all. Blaze looked down, thinking of the hedgehog, with his arm around the white bat. She looked back up at Amy and nodded.
"Great. Trust me, I know how you feel." Amy said, but a blush started to grow on her muzzle. "I mean, I'm pretty sure I do. He never got to me, so I can only guess what it feels like."
Amy quickly looked away from Blaze. The hedgehog started to walk in the direction of the office once again, forgetting about Blaze. Blaze started to chase after Amy, but stopped when she heard crying behind her. Amy also noticed, and turned around, a rosy red blush still slightly visible on her muzzle. The crying belonged to a girl, unknown to Blaze since the girls head was covered by another girls arms in a hug. Amy ran up to Blaze and pulled her towards the opposite direction.
"And that is exactly why you don't want to be with Silver." Amy said.
"Wait, was that the girl he was with when we saw him just before?" Blaze asked, curiously looking behind her. Amy held Blaze's arm tight, and pulled her back around.
"Yes," Said Amy, her eyes were full of sorrow and pain. "That was Rouge. She was one of the most popular girls in our year, and he already broke her heart."
"So... what he does is break the hearts of everyone?" Blaze asked, taking another quick look at the bat girl, Rouge. She was still sobbing into another girls arms, her mascara running down her face. Blaze felt a pang of sympathy. She knew what it felt like to have her heart broken.
"... Your right," said Blaze, as she turned round and set off to the office once more. Amy loosened her grip on Blaze's arm and followed in silence.
Silver swiped his key card in the lock of his dorm room. The machine beeped, giving him access. Inside the room was a cobalt hedgehog in bright red and white sneakers, playing a video game on his bed. He gave Silver a silent wave of hello, not taking his eyes away from the TV. Silver sighed and sat down on his own bed. He dropped his head into his hands and sighed slightly louder. The blue hedgehog noticed the emotions of his roommate.
"Hey, bro," He said, pausing the game to come and sit next to Silver. "What's wrong?"
Silver lifted his head and stared blankly into his roommates playful emerald eyes.
"I cant keep doing this, Sonic..." Said Silver, turning away from the hedgehog, Sonic. "Everyone thinks I have no soul, but I do. I want to feel love again, but I just can't anymore."
Sonic didn't know what to say to Silver. His best friend had been through a breakup, his first one ever, and he officially gave up with 'girlfriends' forever. Now all Silver had was one night flings. Suddenly, Silver's ears perked up.
"But there was this one girl that I saw today," Silver started. Sonic stood up and sat on his own bed again.
"Here we go," He said, picking up his controller and un-pausing his game. "Glad to see your feeling better."
Silver picked up a small plastic hairbrush and threw it at Sonic.
"I'm serious." Silver's amber eyes were sparkling excitedly. "She's new, I think. A cat. Easy prey. And who knows, maybe she's the one,"
Sonic sighed, "You thought that about Rouge... and Leah... and Amy-"
"Don't even mention her." Silver shuddered. "I don't know what I was thinking with that one."
Sonic laughed a little, "Well, what's her name?"
"... I don't know." Silver admitted. Sonic sighed again. "But she's new, maybe she'll be in one of my classes."
"Well, there's only one way to find out," Sonic said with a smirk. Silver still looked grim.
"Yeah... I'll have to corner her tomorrow," Silver said, thinking about all the hearts he's broken, when his was only broken once. To him it seemed unfair.
So, um, tell me what you think, and stuff. If you dont like it, get a life and read something else. If you do like it, but have some problems, feel free to point them out. If you liked it and had no problems with it, then please review and tell me. If you comment something rude and/or mean, I'll block the comment and you, so umm, yeah.
