HERE WE GO!

When I arrived at the hill, I sat next to my favorite waterfall and pondered over my situation. I couldn't believe Shadow would think that I love Amy like that! I mean I love her like a sister, but I would never think her anything other than that! And then he kicked me out of our house! Where will I stay now? Just then I saw Chris walking towards me with the usual tears in his eyes and a big silly grin on his face.

"Sonic!" he called out to me.

"Chris! It's been forever man!" I said sarcastically.

"Why are you out here by yourself?" he asked, now standing next to me.

"Oh... Well you see... it's a long story." I replied.

"Do you need a place to stay? I've got room at the mansion! I'm sure that Dad would not mind!" he asked eagerly.

"Um, sure!" I replied and followed the naïve child to his mansion. When we got there we saw Em-erl and Ella standing outside watering plants.

"Hey Sonic! How are you Hun?" Ella said in her weird accent, Em-erl beeped a hello and went off. Then I walked inside the house. The dinner was already done so we ate and watched some TV. Then Chris suggested that I sleep with him in his room. So I went to take a shower but all the while, Shadow was on my mind. When I got back to the room I took off my sneakers and gloves, grabbed a blanket and left. When I went to the room, Chris was reading a book on his bed. I set my air mattress down and covered myself. Chris then shut the light off.

"Hey Sonic, you never told me what happened to you!" He said.

"Chris, if you really want to know then, OK," I said and I told him everything. And I mean EVERYTHING! Every word spoken, Every action taken. Then when I had completed the telling of my story, I took a deep breath and waited for his opinion. And it hit me like a train going 80 mph.

"Well… Get over Shadow! There's more people who care for you like me! I think that you should forget him!" he said.

WHAT! FORGET SHADOW! I looked right in his eyes for the last time; his eyes quivering in fear, my eyes ice-cold. In that circumstance, My eyes were blinded, and all I saw was his blood staining my once blue fur. When I had been surrounded by it completely, I left to the bathroom to wash up. I packed my blanket and pillow, cleaned up all evidence of my presence and tucked the remains of Chris into his bed.

"Goodnight Chris, Enjoy your eternal sleep…"

Then I left. When I was out of the house, I escaped towards the city. At that moment, I truly contemplated what I had just done. I had just murdered a crazed fan who happen to be the heir of the Thorndyke fortune! I was a fugitive now, the hero in me long gone. My only option of new life and acceptance now was in Soleanna, with Princess Elise.
