Alright, I had the next chappie written, but then I erased it cause I though it was too mushy/fast. Thank u to all my reviewers. Instead of 50 awesomebucks, you may have Shadow the Hedgehog plushies! *throws plushies to reviewers* Now onto the chappie!

Bloody Rose Chapter 2: Comfort

Her mind flowed as fast as her tears. I can't belive I killed him! she cried out in her head over and over again. Her jade eyes followed her trudging feet, her head slumped. Snow began to stick onto her snug jacket and onto her short pink quills. Small indentions buried themselves into the quickly-amassing snow, marks where her teardrops had fallen. Her feet led on until she directed her gaze to in front of her.

1299 Silvera Street.

Gratefully, her feet continued to go across the trimmed lawn and onto the cherry-red porch. Please be here, she prayed as she knocked the elaborate knocker. All she wanted was some comfort and a warm shower. Please be here.

The door swung open and a very cross bat was came into Amy's view. Her milky white fur and sun-tannned skin was graced in a loose silk dress. Her expression changed into worry and concern at the state of being of her friend. "Ohmigod, Amy, are you okay? What happened? Come in and sit, I'l get you something to wipe off with." Amy nodded gratefully and stepped inside. Knuckles was lounging on the leather sofa on her right, iPod in hand and headphones on, eyes closed and head bobbing to some type of music. He apparntly heard the door slam behind the young vamphog and his eyes snapped open.

"Amy! Are you all right?"

"Fine, more or less,"

Tears began to leak out of the pink hedgehog's eyes and felt Knuckles come and wrap a comforting arm around her mid section. "Come on, sit down and tell me and Rouge everything." he coaxed as he led her towards a leather chair sitting across from the sofa, seperated by an oak table littered with an assorsment of items. She plopped down gratefully as Rouge came back from the kitchen, holding a towel in one hand, three margarita glasses and a blood packet balanced in the other. Clearing a space onto the messy table, she laid out the glasses and handed Amy the hand towel.

"I didn't know if you fed enough, so..."

"Yes, but for a terrible reason."

Amy began to tell the duo of what had happened, from hearing Sonic and Sally to leaving his drained body alone in the alley. Rouge shook her head in disapproval at Sonic and Amy's actions.

"You know that threatens our existince. I mean, I know what he done was wrong, but still. That could lead to the destruction of our coven."

"I know, I know. Do you think he truly ever loved me?"

"No. I could see it on his face."

"Do you ever think I might meet someone who isn't a traitor, like Knuckles? I know he's mortal, but still. And don't even suggest that fool."

"Never! I know you'll find someone. Eventually. It's not like you don't have time to spare."

Amy gave a humourless laugh and stood up. "Thank you. I better get home now, before the sun comes up." She gave her vampiric friend a hug and grinned at Knuckles. "Promise to see me soon?"

"Sure Ames."

She went towards the door and turned around. Rouge's and Knuckle's relationship was true love. I wish I could find someone half-decent like Knuckles. She headed out the door, heading home to pack.

Shadow stood rigidly still, sticking to the inky black shadows, perfectly camoflauged. Watching Amy walk away, he let out a small sigh, forgetting for a moment what had happened. She's so beautiful, but she never sees anyone except for that faker. He turned his head downwards and caught sight of Sonic's lifeless body, and he remembered what he had saw. Amy tackling him, slashing at him with unnaturally sharp claws, and her words left an impact on him. 'Why? Why did you lie to me? About her?' Who was her?

He guessed it would probably be Sally, since that was the only other girl Sonic had shown any interest , the only girl actually, since he had hardly tried to keep his end of the relationship with Amy.

Amy.

Was that why she...killed him? It was hard to imagine his rose hurting her beloved hero, but killing him? Then again she wasn't exactly the one he had fallen for years ago.

He decided to follow, even though it might mean her killing him as well. He dashed away from his current spot, leaving Sonic's corpse behind him.

"Miss Amy? Where are you?" a lonely voice called out. A creamy rabbit stepped into the light of a lone streetlamp, scanning the area for more tracks. Amy had stopped by her house a while ago and never returned so far, which worried young Cream. Her friend's tracks were light despite the snow.

"Aha! There they are!" Cream cried out happily, followed the newfound tracks into a dimly lit alley. Not being able to see anywhere, she merely stumbled around calling out Amy's name. "Miss Amy? Miss Amy? Are yo-" Her calls were cut off as she tripped over...something furry. She felt around on the snowy ground before finally grasping fur, the dim light showing its cobalt color, but mixed with crimson. "S-S-Sonic? Are you alr-r-r-right?" she stuttered weakly.

Suddenly remembering the flashlight she had stowed away in her dress pocket, she pulled it out and flicked it on.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Poor Cream. She so gonna be scarred after this. Hmm...that might be a good idea for the story. Hmm... Sorry I haven't updated for a while, but in April, I'll be able to update more. R&R! P.S., I decided the Cream thing should be put in for added affect. And also, I plan on publishing The Beast Within and Stiched Up too, with mah OC's Venom and Lanturr. For horror/romance/weird story lovers.
