Diane

Chapter 2

O-O Told in First-Person O-O

I had no idea where I was...

I was cuffed and blindfolded, and I was riding in a car. One person is on either side of me.

I twist my ears ever so slightly, hoping to catch some info as to why I was restrained.

"...not much we'd get for a little girl..." came the voice to my right.

I 'humfed' inside. If only my hands were free...then you'd get the whoopin of a lifetime, pal.

"...not get much? This here is the princess! She's worth more than over half of Mobius!" A hand was placed on my shoulder roughly, and I squirmed.

The man on the right snickered. "Not so comfortable, are ya'? Don't worry, whenever we get the randsom, we'll make your death as panless as possible," he says.

If I could growl, I would've. Stupid gag.

The car we were in stopped, and I was carried inside...

O-OThird PersonO-O

Diane was carried into a small shack, very dull and crumbling all around, and was unblindfolded. She squirms around, before being tossed to the ground and leashed to the wall.

"No funny buisness, princess, or we'll kill you now," says one of the two men. He was a black cat with a scar on his left eye, and had on a white hoodie and black jeans that were ripped. He was smiling wickedly, and tapped the pistol in his pocket, before walking away from her laughing.

Diane could only glare angrily after the retreating feline. Who did he think she was? She was Diane Bellsum, princess of Kingdom Lyria and a master of Karate. With the flick of the wrist she could be out of these knots and gone into the night. She just needed to wait for the other man to leave the room, and she was set.

As the door closed behind the cat, the second man turned to Diane. "My princess, are you alright?" he asks, walking over to her and undoing the ropes the girl was bound with.

"What? I don't under-"

"My name is Dachi. I knew both your father and your mother. If you do not believe me, take a look at this." The man supposed as Dachi pulls a folded up picture from his pocket, handing it to Diane and stepping back.

Diane opens it, only to gasp. In there was both her mother and father, accompanied by a snow-white hedgehog who looked exactly like the one right in front of her.

"You knew my parents?" the girl inquires, still very hesitant.

She takes battle stance, ready for whatever this male might try to pull off.

Dachi nods, a soft smile on his muzzle. "Janethra and Drake were wonderful people, Diane. I was your father's personal body guard, but also his close friend. But Drake grew a little nervouse over your mother. He feared she would fall for me, so I was fired, but Drake and I remained great pals. Janethra only saw me as a friend, and she kept telling this to both me and your dad. But after you were born...a villain by the name of Dr. Robotnik enslaved Kingdom Lyria and tried to kill you. But the only way you could live was through magic. Sadly, you had none, so Drake gave up his life and his powers, so you could live on." The hedgehog sits down, looking hard at Diane, his expression unreadable.

The female stops short, staring hard at the hedgehog a few ways in front of her form. After consideration though, she encases the unsuspecting male in a giant hug, tears beginning to well up in her eyes.

"T-thats...that the exact same story my uncle Pornthose told to me, l-less than a month ago...only the royal family knows of it...Oh Dachi!" Diane mutters incoherently, collapsing to her knees and taking Dachi with her.

The hedgehog could only hold Diane's shaking form, soon after steading her and turning very serious. "Diane, my princess, we're getting out of here soon, but I need you to follow along with my plan to get us free, alright?"

The female stares into the eyes of the other, nodding silently and breaking the hug. "What exactly do you have in mind, Dachi?" she inqures, almost hesitantly.

"I know you're going to immediately go against this, but we need to chain you back up. If-"

"What! No! I'm not getting shackled again! Let me at that other guy outside the door, I'll take him down with my eyes closed!" Diane was instantly up on her feet, springing for the door and being held back by the white male.

"Diane no! That's Mesuma, the Dragon Fighter! He'll have your heart on a silver platter!" Dachi says hastily, straining against the girl. "Please, my princess, the restraints will not be locked, only to seem so. If you trust me, I can make it seem as if you had no chance of escape, at the same time being as free as a bird."

There was hesitation, before the female hedgehog finally decided to sit again, being too tired to argue any longer. She was 'chained' and Dachi even added some fake blood in the mix to make her seem even more vulnerable.

The white male eventually had to leave Diane, as it was close to dawn, and many things needed to be planned...

O-O

I am not pleased with this chapter at all. So displeased I'm thinkig of dropping the entire fic.

I couldn't think of ANYTHING, so I stopped it here...

My keyboard sucks(sticky keys), and I think I have more writers' block, seeing as how I haven't updated in forever.

Look at me; I have to update the Sonadow sequel, Code Blue, Blood and Love...it's hectic. I don't see how all of you guys can do it.

So what do you think? Should I drop the story and move onto the others?

Let me know plz.
