Amy's Passion
Chapter Two
I own Vinny, kai-senpai owns Kai, Jayln owns Jayln, and Shadow T Hedgehog owns Gahlik.
"Hmph. So, it looks like you just guaranteed our deaths by attacking Sonic." Shadow said scathingly. Kai had just woken up, and looked down, sadly. She was still a little woozy, so she was glad that she was on the floor already, otherwise she would have fallen.
"It's all my fault. If I didn't attack him, we wouldn't be in this situation." Kai said. Amy looked at her with pity.
"Well, if it weren't for you, Vinny would be gone." Amy said. Kai sighed, and nodded. There was a loud groan and a bang as Vinny woke up, hit his head on the wall, and fell unconscious again. Jayln woke up, and managed to sit up.
"You know what? If Gahlik were here, he could use his voodoo dolls to help us..." Jayln said. The car made a sharp left, and everyone crashed into Shadow. Vinny woke up, and tried standing up.
"Huh? That sign...Emerald Street...that's not near the station...that's odd..." Vinny said as he looked out the window. Shadow, who was buried under everyone's body, looked up in mild surprise and tried to get out to read the sign.
"You guys are up? Back to bed for you!" yelled a police officer as they were hit with stun darts. Jayln and Kai fell backwards, and landed on the side of the car. There was a loud bang as the car hit a crevice in the road, and Shadow was sent flying towards the side of the car, landing near Kai and Jayln.
"Ugh..." Amy said, before passing out. Vinny hit the ground. When the police officer left, Kai's eyes whipped open. She made sure her immunity system was activated before checking the others. They were all out like a light. Kai examined the dart that she pricked from Vinny's neck, and gasped. They weren't stun darts. They were poison darts. Kai started tearing the darts out of her friends. She moved frantically, but hit he floor when a gunshot was heard. She fell unconscious, and the last thing she saw was a bright, neon sign.
Kai groaned as she woke up. She sat up, and saw a series of strange metal bars around her. She grasped it in her hand, and felt a strong electric current course through her body. She was thrown backwards. She rubbed the incoming blackness away from her eyes, and gasped. She was in a giant metallic cage with Vinny and Gahlik, and in the cage on the far side of the room lay Shadow, Jayln, and Amy. Kai gasped as Gahlik stirred behind her.
"Gahlik? How'd they get you?" Kai asked. Gahlik whipped his head at the noise, and a crack was heard from his neck.
"Ouch! I was stabbing a Sonic doll, not a voodoo one, rapidly with a butcher's knife to get rid of some anger. Because it was actual size, people thought I was stabbing Sonic, so I was arrested." Gahlik explained. Vinny sat up, and went to lean on the metal bars.
"Vinny! Don't..." Kai started. Vinny leaned back, and...wasn't zapped? He relaxed as he stood up. Kai looked at him in amazement.
"Why weren't you shocked?" Kai asked. Vinny grinned, before taking out the purple Chaos Emerald.
"Chaos Shield, party of one, table 3." Vinny said. Kai rolled her eyes. There was grunting as Shadow, Jayln, and Amy woke up. A strange, purple skinned alien-thing stepped out of the shadows.
"Good evening everybody, and welcome to the Great Escape! I'm your host tonight, Knuckles!" the alien exclaimed as it threw off the costume. There stood Knuckles, microphone in his hand, wearing a bow tie.
"Here, we have Team Hedgehog!" Knuckles exclaimed, waving his hand in the direction of Jayln's cage. Shadow's eye twitched.
"Team Hedgehog? Hmph, not even worth my time..." Shadow muttered. Jayln nodded her agreement. Kai wondered what name her team would be given
"And here, is Team Chaos!" Knuckles exclaimed. Vinny jumped up and punched the air, whilst Gahlik took out the voodoo doll of Knuckles. A small, digital cage surrounded all of Gahlik's voodoo dolls, and hoisted them up into the air.
"The whole point of this game is for both teams to escape the giant labyrinth, avoiding giant holes, trying to stay balanced when it's tilting, and to not get crushed by the big silver ball! And if members of opposite teams meet, they must fight! Ready, set, GO!" Knuckles exclaimed. He disappeared, and giant walls started rising throughout the room. They rose really high in the air, and the cage imprisoning Team Chaos disappeared.
"We have to win, and avoid multiple obstacles? Fun." Vinny said. The three of them raced forwards, Vinny in the lead. Kai and Gahlik ran behind him, forming a triangle. They raced through the maze, jumping over holes. Before they knew it, they were split up.
"First match: Kai versus Jayln!" Knuckles roared from a safe emporium near the ceiling. A tall, round platform rose in the center of the maze, Kai and Jayln on it.
"I wish I didn't have to do this, but we need to escape. I'm sorry." Kai said. Jayln agreed, and the two charged at each other. Beneath them, Gahlik was pacing himself, running pretty quickly, and jumped over a hole in the ground. Then, the maze started tilting towards the giant hole. Gahlik tried his best to get away, but it wasn't enough.
"NO!" Gahlik yelled, as he fell towards the hole. He felt something grab his wrist, and he saw Shadow, smirking. Gahlik gasped.
"Second match: Gahlik versus Shadow!" Knuckles yelled. A platform rose up next to Kai's and Jayln's. Kai was equally matched with Jayln, the two of them trying to push each other off. Jayln almost pushed Kai off. She was standing on the very edge. She managed to knock Jayln off. As Jayln fell, she grabbed onto Kai's ankle, so they both fell off, back into the maze.
"First match: Tie!" Knuckles screamed from the emporium. Kai sighed with relief and started running forward.
Vinny was racing forward, determined to win for the team. He jumped over holes, and when the field tilted, he used his shoes to hover in the air. His first problem came when he found the silver ball rolling towards him.
"Oh no..." Vinny said, before taking off in the opposite direction. The ball followed him, and was right behind him. He saw a pink blur appear, and knock the ball into one of the holes. Vinny looked at Amy, and gasped.
"Third match: Vinny versus Amy!" Knuckles yelled from above. The two of them were standing on a raised platform, and if they fell off, they died. Over on the other platform, Gahlik and Shadow were in a tight struggle. The two of them were desperately trying to attack each other, whilst dodging incoming kicks and punches.
"Amy, I don't wish to fight you, but I see no other choice. Either one of us falls to our doom, or one of us KO's the other." Vinny said. Amy nodded. Underneath them, Kai had seen the exit when she was on the platform. She ran in the direction of which she saw the exit. However, she stopped when she saw a wall. She kicked a hole in it, and staff members were on her in a second.
"You have tried to cheat. You must be punished!" one of the members yelled. Vinny looked down over his shoulder, and saw them overpowering Kai.
"I'm coming, Kai!" Vinny exclaimed as he jumped of the platform. He went into a cannonball position, and readied himself for impact.
"Bye, Shadow!" Gahlik exclaimed. He slid underneath Shadow, and threw him up in the air. In midair, Gahlik threw Shadow, and he fell into the far corner of the labyrinth, back where he started. The platform shrunk back to normal, and Gahlik kept racing.
"Second match: Gahlik wins!" Knuckles exclaimed from the emporium, nearly falling out of it. He looked down to see Vinny falling through the air at an incredible speed. He landed on some of the staff, cushioning the blow. Gahlik came in though the break in the wall, and started attacking staff members. After a few minutes of merciless bashing, the three began to tire. For every time they KO'd a staff member, more appeared.
"Grrrr...oh crud. RUN!" Gahlik exclaimed as they pulled out a giant cannon. Behind it was a yellow, weird sponge with a large face, and he shouted a battle cry.
"No Shirt, No Shoes, No SERV-I-I-I-I-C-C-C-C-E-E-E-E-E!!!!!1" He yelled shooting out clothes from his cannon.
"Dude, watch where you're aiming that!" Vinny yelled ducking as a pair of boots whizzed by his head. Kai jumped, and kicked an Abercrombie shirt, whilst Gahlik was heading for the cannon.
"I'll show you no service!" Gahlik exclaimed. He pulled out the sponge's cell phone, and pressed random buttons. A cool, female voice came out.
"I am sorry, but there is No Service." It said. The sponge sank to his knees, screaming in agony. Gahlik gave him a confused look.
"That's never worked before..." Gahlik muttered. He felt something tug on his arm, and he ran off. The three of them made multiple lefts and rights, until finally...
"We made it!" Vinny yelled in excitement, a grin plastered on his face. As the three of them walked towards the exit, it faded away. Kai gasped in surprise, and started pounding on the wall, trying to find a hollow spot.
"Since it took too long, the exit was removed. Now, you are all stuck in here forever!" Knuckles exclaimed. Then, the entire maze was covered in darkness, and they all seemed to fall into a void. Vinny fell head first, his arm outstretched. Kai fell after him in a similar manner. Gahlik and Jayln fell, their arms covering their faces. Shadow fell after them, spread out like an eagle, enjoying the fall. Amy let loose a scream.
"Ugh, Spongebob, a labyrinth, a black hole...looks like the author's been watching too much T.V. again...I still remember what happened last time..." Vinny muttered. Sure enough, he saw the author, staring from the couch at the T.V.
"Figures..." Vinny mumbled. He looked up and gasped. He watched as everyone seemed to fall faster and faster.
"Look out!" Vinny yelled, as they hit him. The six of them fell, and hit rock bottom. Vinny felt dazed, and put a hand to his head. Everyone else was fine. Kai stood up, brushing dust off of her.
"That was random...where are we?" Kai asked. Vinny shrugged as Gahlik stood up, who helped Jayln up. Shadow groaned as he stood up. He looked around, and saw something peculiar.
"Look! I see...Maria..." Shadow gasped. He started walking over, further into the darkness. The others didn't see anything.
"Wow...a giant Shadow plushy!" Jayln exclaimed, walking off in the opposite direction of Shadow. Kai looked, but saw nothing. Gahlik gasped.
"Amazing! A voodoo doll of Sonic that never breaks, and inflicts twice as much pain as usual!" Gahlik exclaimed, walking off to the right. Vinny, Kai, and Amy saw nothing. Amy looked over to the left, and squealed with excitement.
"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh...a shopping center!" Amy exclaimed, before skipping off towards the left. Vinny and Kai exchanged quizzical looks.
"This place...must show us what we really want, to lure us away...that's weird..." Kai said. Vinny nodded, looking around in amazement. Kai suddenly understood.
"We never left the labyrinth! This is just an illusion!" Kai exclaimed. Vinny turned to face her, looking shocked. The darkness disappeared, and everything faded. Everyone felt woozy. Kai hit the ground, and saw Vinny hit the ground next to her before blacking out...again...

"She's waking up." said a voice from above her. Kai woke up, and saw that she was locked in a cell next to Vinny, who was walking around. Kai saw that policemen were walking through the corridors.
"I'm in jail..." Kai gasped. In the cell across from her, Jayln and Shadow were still unconscious, and they both were on opposite sides of the cell.
"Lucky...she's with Shadow, whilst I'm stuck with Vinny..." Kai muttered. Vinny shot her a disgusted glance, before pointing at the cell next to them. Amy and Gahlik were chained to the walls, both of them awake. A policeman walked next to Gahlik's cell, and stopped.
"The prisoners have been captured. Execution imminent. Before tomorrow, no trace of them will ever exist." The man said, before he walked away. Amy gasped in pure terror. Tears started falling.
"E...execution?" Amy gasped, tears rolling down her dress. Vinny nodded, and looked down. He was sad.
"My only guess...is that there'll be nothing left of us after we're executed for his faked death." Vinny said, pointing to Shadow's cell. And, right next to Jayln, was Sonic, grinning.
My second chapter comes to a close. Shadow T Hedgehog, for being the only reviewer at this point, your wish was granted. That's all I have to say here, I guess. Later!
