Hi everyone, sorry I was not able to update, my iPad had broken down and I had to take it to get it fixed but here is chapter 3 so read, review, and enjoy :)
Its the day after king john's birthday celebration and king shadow was on his gold throne with his head resting on his palm, he was deep in thought that is until he heard a female voice call him,
"shadow!" the voice called, shadow knew who it was
"what is it Maria?" he asked as the female hedgehog with a lovely light blue dress ran up to him
"I found someone you might like" Maria told him
"no Maria!" he shouted "stop trying to find a mate for me!"
Maria's face turned into a frown "but your king," shadow rolled his eyes "and every king needs a queen" Maria continued,
"I'm capable of ruling on my own,ok" shadow told her
"finding a mate is not only so you can be king!" she shouted "it's so you can be happy with the person you lo-"she was cut off
"Don't say it!" he began to get angry "I may be your older brother, but I'm still king, now leave" shadow said with a glare
Maria did as she was told and left. Shadow got off his throne and began to walk back and forth in his castle. ~Maria is killing me with all the you need a mate talk~ he thought to himself ~with everyday that passes, it's a day closer to spring.~ he walked to a window "those fools better be done taking down those stupid roses" he said out loud. Shadow started walking down a hallway with paintings of past family members, then he came to a painting of his parents. He stopped to look at it, his face began to look sad but he stopped himself and continued walking. He came to a door with a white female cat keeping guard "open the door" shadow said and the cat nodded and held the door open for shadow as he walked in. Shadow walked down the stairs, he had gotten to the bottom and was greeted by another door, he pulled out a key from his quills and opened the door. Inside the room was an orb that gave an orangey glow. He got closer and picked the orb up and shook it,
"w-whoa!stop!" said a female voice, the shaking stopped "oh it's just you" she said with a glare
"well, hello to you too cream" shadow said
"what do you want now" she asked annoyed
"nothing really, just your magic"shadow said, cream just ignored shadow was getting mad he called her over and over, but no answer. He got mad and shook the orb again.
"stop shaking the ball!" cream shouted
"give me your magic!"shadow shouted back
"how about you let me out!" shouted cream
"I'll let you out when pigs fly" the mad king said
"then you should let me out, cause I found one" she said angerly
Shadow growled as he put the orb back with cream inside. Shadow was furious, then he punched the wall leaving a dent. Cream was watching and never felt so scared. Without another word the dark lord walked up the stairs and out the door.
-Days later-
It's the day of the spring festival and the sun has not yet risen. everyone in the light kingdom were still asleep, well almost everyone. Sonic and scourge were walking and talking about the plan to get the potion
"so you know the plan now?" asked scourge
"ya, get a rose, find the fairy, and bring it back" sonic answered
"yes, and after you are done I will take the remaining potion" scourge said, soon after the sky began to change color, the sun had began to rise.
"well, I'm off see ya at the festival" sonic said before he left, scourge had a smile but as soon as sonic left it vanished and was replaced by an evil grin.
-with sonic-
the kingdom was just beginning to wake up and sonic was almost to his destination. Minutes later he made it, he ran to the bushes but soon came to a stop. He saw that none of the bushes had any roses on them. He got worried, sonic reached in between some bushes, pricking his fingers with some thorns. He stopped realizing it was pointless, he took some steps back and almost fell. Sonic looked back and saw the familiar hole, then he remembered ~this is the hole Amy almost fell in.~ A light bulb went off, he started to look around and found what he was looking for, the tree with the hole in it. Sonic ran up to the tree and looked inside, he saw a shining object at the bottom and reached for it. When he pulled the object out a smile grew on his face he had found the rose he had hidden. He put the rose away, when he put the rose away he noticed a small path through the trees. It was a little hard to get through due to his wings. He made t with only a few scratches. Sonic looked around everything looked dark, gloomy, and dead. Sonic summond all his courage and walked, the further he went the darker it got. Then he stopped realizing he doesn't even know where the castle was. As he was trying to figure where to go some thing was watching him. Sonic heard movement in the bushes, he felt his heart beat faster. A shadow passed by and he heard giggling, "Ahhhhh!" he screamed when he thought he was going to be attacked then he looked at the frightening creature and laughed when he saw a little chao. The chao looked at sonic and then began to bounce and point. To sonic it looked like the chao was trying to lead him somewhere, so he followed. After a while of running in the dark the chao came to a stop. Sonic finally cought up.
"where are we?" sonic asked as he walked, then he bumped into something he reached out to feel what it was, it was a stone wall.
"chao chao!" the chao pointed at two bushes, sonic ran back
"what? Are you hungry?" sonic asked, the chao shook its head and moved the bushes a part to reveal a hole in the mysterious wall
"oh" was all sonic said
"Chao"
"you want me to go down there" sonic asked confused, the chao nodded, sonic crouched down to get a closer look "I don't kno-" before he could finish he was pushed.
It wasn't along fall, but he landed witha thud. Sonic rubbed his head as he got up. He looked to where he was pushed and saw that the hole was gone. He panicked and felt to see if the hole was still there when he felt leaves brush against his hand he calmed down. He turned around and started to walk, "I wish I had some light" the a golden light shined. He was happy for light and also wnated to know where it was coming from, so he followed. He came to the end of the tunnel. He saw where the light was coming from, it was a small orb in the middle of the room. Sonic figured where he was when he saw gold and jewels.
"you shouldn't be here" a female voice said, sonic looked at the orb and walked towards it,"how did you get in here?" sonic didn't answer he just picked up the orb and looked at it. "answer!" the voice shouted as she showed up
"whoa" sonic was a little frightened "who are you and how did you get in there?"
"I am cream the fairy an-" she was interrupted
"so your the fairy?" sonic asked excitedly
"please don't interrupt me" sonic quickly covered his mouth "yes I'm cream the fairy and I was put in here by king shadow"
"how awful" he told her "um I was wondering if you can...make me a potion?" the nervous hedgehog asked
"I am forbidden to make them" said cream
"please" begged sonic
"ok cause you asked so nicely" she told him "but I can't do anything without a rose"
Sonic pulled out the rose "I have one"
"really" her eyes lit up when she saw the rose "I knew he didn't cut them all" she flew around in the orb "ok give it to me"
"how?" a confused sonic asked
"you can reach in, but I can't come out" she answered, sonic pocked the orb nothing happened then he took his whole hand and tried again, his hand went was getting annoyed, finally sonic put the rose through. "thank you" cream took the rose "now look away"
"why?" sonic asked but cream just looked at him, at the end sonic did as he was told. Sonic couldnt see anything but flashes of light, he tried to take a peek but got a don't look shouted at him. "ok done"
"that was fast"
"it would have been faster if it weren't for you sonic"
" wait how dos you know my name I never told you?" sonic asked
"I am the pure fairy, I know everyone and who is destined to be with who" she answered "now listen carefully, this potion is very powerful. When you have used it be sure to be the first one she sees, ok"
"ok" sonic reached in to get the bottle
"oh and don't let the chao get the bottle he is trouble" sonic just nodded "wait" sonic stopped walking " take this, it's the seed from the rose, plant it please" cream said,
sonic reached in one last time and got the seed "I will" and he left leaving the orb there in its place
Sonic went back the way he came from, he climed to the hole and went back through the dark woods, while sonic was in the woods wondered ~where is that chao?~. It was non and the spring festival had started, sonic hid the bottle in his quills
"sonic!" shouted familiar voices "where have you been?"
"Amy, diamond, no where just taking a walk" sonic answered
"all morning?" the two girls said at the same time
"yes" was all sonic said
"whatever, your here now let's go have some fun" said Amy
They were having fun, sonic was on stage singing with the band, amy was dancing, and diamond was sitting having some lunch. Sonic noticed scourge in the crowd and gave him a nod and scourge nodded back.
Hope you enjoyed chap 3 and sorry for the wait ^_^
