Thank Storm the Albatross for revewing, chapter 2
-------
After Amber and Sonic dry off with the towels in Amber's personal bathroom, they decided to get some sleep. The first reason for Sonic is he needed to find his friends again. The first reason Amber was the fact that it was 2 a.m.
"Here," Amber nodded, patting the last blanket on the spare couch in her room. "You can sleep here, unless," Amber looked at Sonic, who was still drying his fur, "You could sleep in my bed and I sleep in the couch." Sonic shook his head.
"Nah, I'll sleep on the couch," he responded, laying under the covers that Amber put on. As they tried to fall asleep, they all were thinking about what just happened. Amber snuggled under her sheets in her new pajamas.
I wonder what he is, or where he is from? He is not like anything I've ever seen, but I feel like I have seen him before. Somewhere in great gramp and daddy's lab. His name sounds so close to my middle name, Sonica. I wonder why he couldn't swim? Or why he is blue? Are there any more of his kind here? Is he dangerous? I don't think he is. If he was, he would of hurt me ore walked away. I wonder if he was bad, why was he so nice and caring, like giving me the first towel when he was shivering to death? Questions like those kept swarming in her head till she fell asleep.
But in Sonic's head, other questions bounced in his head.
Was I here before or am I somewhere new? Is Amber good or bad? Why does she look so much like Chris? Why was she so shocked when she heard my name? Should I stay hidden or should I show myself? More importantly, is the rest of the gang here, or only me? He kept thinking about these questions until he fell asleep.

Sonic kept rolling and flinching. He was having a strange dream and could not decide whether it was a nightmere, or a haunted dream.
Sonic's dream:
"NOO! Amy, Don't hurt me don't hurt me." I was pinned to the ground with Amy sitting ontop of me. Her bright red and yellow hammer was pointing to the sky, ready to slam right down onto my head. Her face had a evil glare, smiling at my fear. "Answer," she demanded, "Marrige or death." I winced. I didn't want that hammer to smash my brain, but I didn't think we were ready for marrige. I was about to say any other choice when Amber popped into veiw. Amy glared at her. "Sonic!" Amber rushed over and pulled me out under from Amy's pin. "Are you OK?" "Yea I'm fine," I responded hugging her. Amy started to have red flames popping from her skin. Amber shrieked and ran behind me. "Amy, chill down," I said, sheilding Amber. "You are trying TO STEAL MY BOYFRIEND!!!!!!" Amy screamed at Amber. She started chasing Amber in circles, with her hammer swinging back and forth.
Meanwhile Amber was having a unusual dream, and was buried under all her covers.
I was walking through a forest when I heard a scream. I ran to these nearby bye bushes. Sonic was pinned down by another pink hedgehog sitting on top of him. A yellow and red hammer was right above his head and she was demanding an answer. I ran through the bushes. I ran over to Sonic and pulled him out of her grasp. "Are you Ok?" "Yup," Sonic responded. He looked at me, "What are you wearing?" I looked down, a blue short dress was on my body. I shrugged. The pink hedgehog had flames coming from her body. "You are TRYING TO STEAL MY BOYFRIEND!!" She started chasing me with her hammer.
Sonic and Amber both opened their eyes sat up and screamed. "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Amber was gasping for breath and Sonic was cuddling up with his blanket and sucking his thumb. Sonic noticed what he was doing. "Sorry," Sonic said, regaining his composure, "Nightmere." "Same here," Amber said, shaking the covers off her. "Well, it's 7 o'clock, I might as well get changed, Sonic stay in my room." She was saying as she was pulling an outfit out of her drawers. "I'm not sure how our maid will take it that you are a talking animal." She headed for the bathroom and shut the door.
This was the first time Sonic had a good look of the room. It was light blue and had a desk in the corner. Dressers were lined up on one wall and a closet right next to the couch. The bed was in the middle of the wall with the door. He walked over to the dressers. Pictures were placed on the top. Sonic looked at a few photos. Some of them were baby photos, some were school photos, but a family photo caught his eye. Amber looked like she was 5, sitting on a lady's lap. The lady had long wavy blond hair, and looked like she was in a wheel chair. "Helen? Nah, it couldn't be." A man was standing in the back holding the chair. The guy had orange hair, that was slightly brushed to the side. "Chris?" Sonic's voice sounded unceartin. Amber walked into the room.
"Yea, that my mom and dad." Amber eyes were sad. "They work really hard. They wanted a good life for me. My dad didn't want to follow grampa's career, but when he heard momma was going to have me, he needed a job ASAP. Momma is working at a robotics company, desining to make better wheel chairs." Sonic looked at Amber, tears started filling her eyes. "I hardly get to see them. I love them, but I think they work too hard for me. They want me to have an exciting life like momma and dad. I'm not sure how they had an exciting life, dad is very calm and thoughtful while mom is confined to a wheel chair. Most days, I have a few hours with them before I have to head to bed. Some times I don't see then for days. But they always take a month off so they can spend time with me. I know I should be thankful that I get to see them, because Grandpa and Grandma hardly visited dad, only on short occasions. Grams and Gramps worked alot to take good care for mom." Amber's tears slowly let go, "I just want to spend more time with them. The only family members that visit me often is Uncle speed, who is very fast, and Great grandpa Chuck who lives here." Amber tears dripped down her face. Sonic rubbed her back. He was antsy to find his friends, but what she said startled him.
Great Grampa Chuck, Sonic thought shaking his head, could that be? If Great grampa chuck is Grandpa chuck, the adults in the picture is Chris and Helen, he looked at Amber, who was drying her tears, and thats their daughter, that means it has been a generation here. Amber looked normal now. Sonic decided to ask some questions. "Amber, are your parents Helen and Chris?" Amber turned to face Sonic. Her eyes were filled with shock. "How do you know my parents name?" "WHOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!" Sonic screamed, jumping around in circles.
"Huh?" "When are your parents coming back home?" Sonic said, pausing for only a moment. Amber shrugged. "I don't know? I usually call them." Sonic grabbed a phone that was on her night table. "Call them." "Errrr, OK." He watched Amber dial a phone number. This was the first time he got a good look at her. Ahhh, now I see. Amber's orange hair had a sight wave to it. Her eyes were a blue green color, and skin was light. She smiled like her mom, and her hair was like her dads.
"Mom? HI!," Sonic payed attention to the phone call. "Yea I'm fine. When are you coming home? Ok. What? Oh..um, I kinda got a nightmere. Yea. Uhhh....Momma I did somethin I wasn't supposed to do. Ohh , well i saved this umm," She glanced at Sonic, "A dog from drowning. The adult pool. I know. K, Bye." Amber hung up. "Can't you see I'm a hedgehog. Not a dog," Sonic groaned. "Well, I'm not sure if Mom would understand." Amber opened the porch door in her room. Sonic started to say something,"She--" "RINNNGGG" The phone interrupted Sonic. "Daddy!!! Yea I know. Is it Ok if the dog stays? Yay! Oh, really? OK bye. Say hi to grandpa. Bye!"
"Sooooooo?" Sonic said, raising an eyebrow. "Well, dad said I could keep you, but he thinks you are a dog." Sonic frowned, "When are they coming home?" "Well, mom is coming before dad, and before dinner." Amber jumped up and down. "Today is the longer day." Both of their stomach growled. "I'm hungry," Sonic said, lying on Amber's unmade bed. "Same here. Stay in my room, I'll bring food." Amber walked out the doorway, and shut the door.
Well Chris, we are going to see each other soon, thanks to your daughter.
