Cold...Cold...That was all she could feel. Just...where is she? How did she get here? It was...dark. It was very dark. She couldn't see anything. Is...is she dead? It's been long since she's felt the warm trickle from the stinging pain on her skin. The female looked down and saw the marks. Deep red. She looked past the deep red marks and saw a long tattered skirt. Painted with huge splatters of blood. Her pink hair was skewed all around her face, no longer glossy and curly. Her arm moved to put a strand of hair behind her face-clank.

What? She heard tried to move her arm again. Clank. The girl with pink hair looked down to see rusty iron chains bounding her wrists to the floor. She tried pulling them again. And again. And again. And again until she felt them scratch her skin. Tugging once more, her red scars tore open and crimson rivers began to flow freely down to the...stain glassed floor?

"What...?" Looking around her, the pink girl could see that she was standing on a huge stain glass floor. From where she was standing, she could see the image of...her as a hedgehoglett holding a doll with stars surrounding her. She fell to her knees, gasping for air into her lungs. Just where the hell was she?! The pink hedgehog looked up again and stared at her younger self on the stained glass. How did that get there? The chains on her wrist clanked with every small movement she made. Slowly, the tattered woman crawled to her younger self and traced the face. She looked so peaceful with her doll close to her body.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Footsteps of a child came running near her. The pink hedgehog looked up and saw her five year old self running to her with the doll being held tenderly. Her eyes widened as she saw her younger reflection pranced to her with a joyful expression on her chubby face.

"Mommy?" The child looks over the grown hedgehog's head. The grown hedgehog also looks up. There was nothing but darkness everywhere.

"Mommy? Are you there?" The five year old runs by the grown hedgehog and goes to the other side of the glass floor, where there's no stairs. Fear grips the pink hedgehog as she sees her former self go to the very edge. She tugs and pulls on the chains that bind her to the floor, trying to reach the little girl from her almost impending death.

"Mommy?" The child went closer to the edge and-

"NO!" -walked on a gray stair that just appeared. More and more stairs appeared as the five year old ran up the stairs to a very large pillar. She was still calling for her mother. The pink hedgehog finally pulled hard and the chains became vines and she fell face forward. The vines slithered away for a moment so that the pink hedgehog can trek her way up the stairs. However, the possessed vines weren't going to let the girl go free...


How did this happen? He only saw her during that faker's birthday party. She looked fine to him that day. After all, her usual cheerful self was rather annoying, but it gave him the satisfaction that the lone rose was doing fine. He looked down at the blood stains on his fur. He scowled deeply at the liquid that caused his white chest fur to become a maroon color. He only watched over her to keep his promise. What drove her to that point? He doesn't know a thing about her past, but he knows that it wasn't going to bind her to the ground.

She's not like me. He growled in complete frustration. It's always him that has to come and save her. Why can't that nagging bat or that extremely naive rabbit come for their friend? Or that stupid faker?!

"Shadow? I need to speak with you about Ms. Rose." the female gopher announced. The crimson splashed hedgehog closed his eyes and walked into the doctor's office. The doctor folded her hands together and sighed. The black hedgehog didn't give a shit in the slightest.

"What do you want to discuss? You better make it quick." His velvet voice echoed in the silence. The gopher glared at Shadow for his tone and rudeness, but the dark her crossed his arms and glared back, but twice as deadly. Jumping slightly, the gopher cleared her throat.

"Well, it seems like Ms. Rose tried to commit suicide." Shadow rolled his eyes at this.

"No shit Sherlock. Now what the hell do you want me in here for?" The gopher sighed again.

"Ms. Rose is in a coma as we speak. She's still in the ICU right now. We have been able to stop the bleeding and to get her breathing stabilized, but it seems like she fell into a deep coma. We're not sure if she'll be able to wake up from it. And from the amount of blood loss, she was minutes away from dying." Shadow quietly pondered at this. Amy Rose? In a coma? Those words should never be in the same sentence. The gopher cleared her throat.

"Do you know exactly what made her try to commit suicide?" Shadow's eyes flashed open.

"How the hell should I know? I wasn't with her when she did it! I only found her barely breathing, lying in her own pool of blood." the hedgehog growled in anger. The gopher held her hands up in defense.

"I was only asking. Usually patients that try to commit suicide from slitting their wrists are suffering from depression, want attention, or they truly need help. Has Ms. Rose been showing any signs of those situations?" The spikey quilled hedgehog tried to remember the times he saw Rose. He really didn't see much of her. Only when he was forced to go to those stupid birthday celebrations and when he had to have important meetings with the general and the rest of the team when it came to defeating terrorists or an overweight scientist. She didn't seem depressed in the slightest.

"No." The doctor sighed for the fourth time.

"I don't know what else to-" SLAM!

"Doctor Ritch! Patient in ICU room 12 is going into cardiac arrest as we speak!" A male purple and red striped tiger with hazel eyes bursts into the room wearing blue scrubs. Doctor Ritch's eyes popped out of her head. She immediately started to follow the tiger down the hall. Crimson eyes watched as the doctor left the office. Shaking his head, the dark hero was about to leave the office, only to silently curse when he realized that the files on the doctor's desk revealed that the patient going into cardiac arrest was the pink hedgehog who tried to kill herself.


The lone rose quickly ran up the gray stairs that was covered with thorny vines. She finally reached the very top of the pillar and saw the five year old with her doll run into a tall, gray glass door. It shut behind the five year old and disappeared instantly. The broken doll breathed in and out harshly and in panic. She could've sworn that the younger version of herself went through a gray door a second ago! Tattered rags went side to side as Amy looked in every direction to see where she was. Her arms began to tickle with warm liquid. Looking down, she saw her wrists still opened with blood flowing freely. Looking at the tattered clothes she was wearing, the broken doll quickly wipes the rushing rivers and bent down to wipe up the spots that stained...another glass floor?

"Where the hell am I?!" The grown hedgehog could see herself as a ten year old with a small Chao in her arms. Amy got closer to the image of herself to get a better view. The eyes of the younger reflection snapped open.

"You honestly don't know where you are you ignorant fool?" The lone rose jumped back in surprise.

"What the fuck?!" Her ten year old self laughed scornfully.

"I'm surprised to see how I've gotten even stupider as I got older. How can you not know where you are?" The glassy ten year old hedgehog rose from the floor. Her body begins to morph and shape into a living and breathing ten year old hedgehog. Amy was awestruck at the sight. She backed away in horror, only to realize that her ankles and wrists were being held down by the vines that morphed back into rusty iron chains. The pink hedgehog began to panic as her ten year old self approached her. The little girl just shakes her head.

"I never realized that I would grow up to be this very pitiful young woman. I wonder where I will go wrong?" The younger reflection puts her hand on her chin, as if she's actually thinking about what she said. Breathing in and out, the young woman tried to scoot back, almost going to the edge of the giant pillar. Fear had its iron grip wrapped around the lone rose, and it was constricting her greatly.

"How-? What-? I don't-?" Ten year old Amy Rose scoffed.

"I never realized that I would be babbling like a complete idiot when I became an adult." The girl scowled deeply. The older hedgehog was shaking in fear.

"I-I-I thought I killed myself already! Where am I?! What the hell are you?!" Laughter erupts from the young girl and echoes into nothingness.

"Haven't you realized that you're not dead yet?" Emerald eyes widened.

"Wh-What?" The ten year old rolled her eyes.

"You still refuse to think like the grown hedgehog you are. Of course you're not dead you fool! If you were, you wouldn't be able to see this now would you?" The ten year old's chao raised itself from the floor and flew up into the never ending darkness. The glass chao morphed into a tall stained glass window. It looked like the older rose hedgehog was having a seizure as the doctors tried to resuscitate her.


"Pulse is running low! Add the shock to another level!" Doctor Ritch rubbed the shocking ends of the defibrillator together. Another doctor and a few more nurses were scrambling to get the appropriate equipment and methods to use to keep the rose colored hedgehog alive. A green lioness turned the the dial of the device up to level three. The gopher holds the shocking pads up in the air.

"CLEAR!" The pink hedgehog's limp body sprang up and down a few times. The pulse got stronger a little bit, but it was still somewhat weak. Time was racing against the doctors and nurses to keep their patient alive.


Emerald eyes looked at the window with utter shock and horror. Those doctors and nurses are trying to revive her with any equipment and method they can think of. The ten year old crosses her arms and smirks.

"You fool. I told you. You aren't dead yet. Those doctors are simply wasting their time and talents on you." The little hedgehog walked towards the older pink hedgehog and went past her. She walked towards the edge of the pillar and a marble stair appears under her feet. After taking the first step, ten year old Amy Rose took off running. The rose colored hedgehog instantly got up and pulled the chains until she was set free. The rusty irons broke apart and morphed back into vines. The older Amy Rose ran after her younger self. Marble stairs spiraled up to another huge pillar. Amy then saw her ten year old self in front of a silver door in the middle of the floor. Breathing harshly from the physical activity, the elder pink hedgehog sprinted to the younger reflection of herself.

"Wait!" The little girl looked back and smirked. Slithering stealthily on the floor, vines came and wrapped itself around Amy's wrists and ankles, morphing back to the rusty iron chains again. Amy fell face first into the glass floor after getting tripped from the chains. She looked up and saw her little reflection crossing her arms.

"I demand answers!" The little girl rolled her eyes.

"You? Demanding answers from me?" Amy's patients was wearing thin.

"Who are you?! And if I'm not dead, then where the hell am I?!" The little girl turned around and opened the silver door and stepped into its everlasting shadows.

"Answer me!" Young little Rose turned her head slightly and smirked.

"Your mind." She slammed the door and the glass window above the pillar shattered into millions of pieces.


Suspenseful ain't it? xD Anyway, here's the second chapter! For those that are confused, in this chapter, Amy isn't dead. She's just wandering around in her mind and is also facing her demons (everyone has one). Also, the glass floor idea was actually an inspiration from Kingdom Hearts when Sora had to make extremely important decisions when it came to choosing his weapon wisely. The part where Doctor Ritch explains why a patient cuts their wrists was made up (or is coincidentally true). For those that read and favored the first chapter, it was deleted by the site and I didn't get a LEGIT reason of why it was deleted. Anyway, it'll be up and running again. Hopefully nothing happens. Happy reading! :)
