Sorry this took so long to update, I was trying to think of a good storyline. Here's chapter two. Enjoy!
Shadow stared at the planet through the window. In the reflection he saw a pink blur appear beside his black and red blur. He turned to see a girl, the love of his life, smiling at him.
A couple of days had gone by since that first night he transformed. After school, he spent his days in his room talking to his Chao Hope.
"So let me get this straight," Phillip said. "I had this life before this one and I was made by a scientist?"
"Exactly," Hope replied.
"Why don't I remember any of this?"
"That's another story of which we won't discuss right now. I think you absorbed enough for today."
"But I want to know more! Who was I?"
"We'll pick this up later, right now you need to do your homework."
"You're not my mom."
"No, but I can attract her up here to see you NOT doing it."
"Fine, fine..." Phillip hit the books.
Meanwhile, in a dark dimension, a hedgehog-looking demon was sitting on a throne. He was in the presence of a green hedgehog wearing a black leather jacket.
"Sire, Shadow is awoken," the green hedgehog said.
"You mission is still active Scourge," the demon said. "Find the identity of him in the real world."
"Yes, Mephiles," he bowed and exited the area.
The next day, Phillip went to school with Hope following him. It was a Friday so he was happy that the weekend was almost there. He put his headset in, listening to his music when he got a tap on his shoulder. He jumped and turned to see who it was, he was relieved to see that it was Amy.
"Hey Phillip," she said.
"Hello Amy," he said politely back.
"Can I walk with you?"
"Ugh... Sure," they walked together and she started a conversation.
"Can I tell you something? A secret?"
"Sure."
"Well... The other night, I was attacked by someone. I thought I was done for when someone came. He saved me, Phillip."
"Not to be blunt, but why are you telling me this?"
"Because you're a good friend. I know you won't betray my trust to anyone."
It was a true complement, his secret crush putting her trust in him.
"Would you like to see him again?"
"What do you mean?"
"To tell you the truth, I know him."
"You do?!"
"Yeah. I can ask him to meet you again. Tonight sound good?"
"Why are you doing this for me and how do you know him?"
"Because I'm a good friend. You said that yourself. He also told you what happened. You could say that I've known him for a long time."
"Thanks Phillip!" Amy hugged Phillip's arm. He felt so good, so complete when she touched him. He wanted to feel like that forever, but she was an independent woman so he gave her her space. They eventually got to the school and had a normal day.
"Remember," Amy said before she parted ways with Phillip. "At the park at six tonight."
"Got it."
She waved bye to the loner and ran off to her locker. Phillip walked in a swaying movement to his locker. She wants to meet with me! he thought. This could be my in!
5:50pm
Phillip's mom was on a business conference and trusted her son to keep himself safe. With her gone, he didn't need an excuse to leave the house. He packed his keys and money in his back pocket of his jeans; he figured he'd change to Shadow closer to the park. He walked to the park and went behind a thick bush.
"Shadow Make-Up!" He said and changed to Shadow the Hedgehog. He got out of the bush and continued to walk to the park. He looked at his watch and saw that it was five minutes to six. He almost got to the bench where he was to meet Amy, and saw that she was already there. It was one minute till six so he decided to make her stay in suspense. He saw her tap her hands on her lap, waiting eagerly for her hero.
5...4...3...2...1...
Shadow emerged out of the bushes and walked over to Amy. She turned to see her black knight walking towards her with one hand behind his back.
"You came," she said standing up.
"I heard that you wanted to see me," he said to her, placing his free hand on her arm to guide her to sit down.
"I was afraid you wouldn't come."
"I wouldn't disappoint an admirer," he pulled his hidden hand and a rose was in it. Amy gasped as he gave it to her, she took it gently.
"I actually wanted to thank you for saving me the other night."
"You're welcome my dear," he was ready to get up when Amy grabbed his arm.
"Wait," he stopped and turned back to look at her. "I want to give you something too."
She cupped his cheek and gently pulled him in closer to her. They got closer and closer until their lips touched. They kissed passionately, Shadow wrapped his arms around her waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Shadow was freaking out on the inside, a fire of love was burning inside of him at a temperature of 110°F but he didn't mind.
The more he kissed her, the more Amy fell in love. His kiss was soft like the inside of a rose, but almost shaky like it was his first kiss. He wasn't pushy or aggressive, he was sincere and loving.
They broke and stared at each other, catching their breaths. A glaze of bliss was in each of their eyes, like they had just tasted perfection.
"Thank you miss," Shadow said breaking the silence. Amy got up from the bench.
"See you later," she said waving and running out of the park. Shadow was left sitting on the bench stunned and shocked. He slowly got up and noticed that Amy had dropped something. He bent down and picked it up; it was a red ribbon. She was already too far away to call out so he tied it around his wrist and headed home.
Meanwhile, in a nearby bush an evil Scourge was spying on the two. He didn't learn the identity of Shadow but he did learn his weakness. He left to tell Mephiles what he had learned.
Shadow got back home and went straight to his bedroom, he changed back into Phillip while climbing up the stairs. He plopped on his bed and sighed happily. The thought of Amy kissing him flowed in his memory over and over again. His thoughts were interrupted by Hope, who was hovering over his head.
"Where were you?" She said grouchy. "You said you were getting something from downstairs."
"I came back, didn't I?" He said sitting up.
"Where were you?"
"I was having the time of my life!"
Phillip swirled around the room with his arms out, eyes closed and head pointed at the ceiling. He fell back on the bed, almost landing on Hope, and removed the ribbon off his wrist and smelled it. He could smell her shampoo off the piece of thin cloth.
"Hey..." He said sinisterly as he grabbed both sides of the ribbon and threw it around Hope's neck when she wasn't looking. He pulled her in closer until she was in his crossed lap, he tied a big bow in the back. He let her go to reveal that he had used the ribbon as a gender difference maker.
"There," he said to her. "Now you look like a girl Chao."
She crossed her stubby arms at him, although she like the red bow, she would never show that to Phillip despite her being a mentor.
I'm so so sorry that this took so long or that it's probably not my best piece of work. I've been busy with my other story, the CM one, so this one went on the back burner. I hit a writer's wall with this story and I've been thinking about the future chapters for this, WAY future chapters. I'm planning to put my OC, Starr the Hedgehog, in this story and I'm giving her a different background than what I gave her before. I heard that some people didn't like her so her background story will be gruesome and most likely change rating higher, if you don't like DON'T READ! I do not want people to write to me saying how they hate my OC; if you don't like any of it, why are you here on the response wall? Thank you for your patience.
