Chapter 3

Memories

Sonic smiled warmly at everyone of his friends who congratulated him, he had turned 19 and his friends made him a birthday party. Tails smiled as he handed him a box, Sonic thanked him as he slowly opened it. It was a watch that Tails had personally given him with many cool features. The newly 19 year old hedgehog sighed a bit contently, everybody was chatting with each other, there was Rouge flirting with Knuckles who was blushing, Tails with Cream, and other friends of his. Shadow was on a chair sipping some beverage, he looked like he was thinking long and hard. Sonic just stared at him intrigued. Shadow turned to him.

"What are you looking at?"

Sonic shook his head quickly, "N-nothing! I was just..."

Shadow sighed, even though Sonic and him didn't interact much, they have been through a lot together in missions, fighting crime that kind of stuff which is why Shadow was there. He really wasn't much of a bad guy, the only reason both don't get along too well is because Sonic was so care free and Shadow was a but more serious. Shadow sighed once more, he grabbed something from the beside him and handed it to Sonic in a quick move.

"Here, happy birthday."

Sonic looked a bit surprise, he really didn't expect this from him, "Gee ... Thanks Shads."

Shadow 'hmphed' and walked away leaving Sonic to find out that his present was a very cool black and blue jacket. Nice! Sonic put it on since it was chilly. Suddenly he felt a tap on his shoulder, it was Cream.

"Um, Mister Sonic, I almost forgot to give you this." She handed him a small box, it was wrapped in baby blue paper. He lloked at it confusingly, everyone has given him a present, who could have forgotten?

"It's from...Amy."

Sonic stopped breathing for a second...Amy...

He took it with his shaking hands, "Thanks Cream."

She nodded and walked away. His heart beat fast just thinking that this present was from Amy. It's been such a long time since he's been around her, chatted with her. The only time he got to see her was just on some occasions like if someone had a party or it was entirely necessary to have a group meeting. But barely did Amy go out anymore, he actually missed her. Sonic's ears drooped remembering something that kind of hurt him even to that day.

Sonic was in Tail's house hanging out a bit, it really was getting a bit stressful trying to maintain the city safe. Even with Shadow's help, there was always crime, he didn't understand why all of a sudden there were more robberies, murders and things like that. Tails had invited some people to come by to give everyone a good time. Cream first arrived, she brought a large apple pie fro everyone, then came Knuckles, he 'heyed' everyone. Rouge also came by, ever since she decided not to steal jewels, she was very well accepted. Everyone started to talk about they're lives, funny stories, jokes...Sonic was content but couldn't stop thinking about Amy's absence. Finally, there was a knock, it was her.

"Hey Amy come in," Tails said welcoming her in. She smiled at his and walked inside, everyone said hi and ketp going on with their chitter chatter. Amy sat down next to Cream who was on Tail's couch sipping some soda. Sonic noticed that Amy didn't even look his way, it kind of made him feel a bit...weird.

"Hey sweetums, how have you been lately?" Rouge asked sitting down next to her.

"Oh I've been fine. Nothing to tell really."

Knuckled joined in, "Nothing? How about the recent deaths of people? Or the fact that Eggman suddenly dissapeared? You call that nothing?"

Rouge narrowed her eyes at him, "You are always such a party shitter!"

Amy giggled, Tails laughed and Knuckled only gave her a dirty look, "Shut up bat!"

Sonic came by and sat next to Amy, "Calm down, geez, nobody wants to really talk about that stuff right Ames?"

Amy shrugged him off, "Yeah uh-huh."

Sonic tilted his head a bit, "You all right?"

Amy nodded not making any eye contact, she suddenly stood up, "Can I use your bathroom Tails?"

Tails nodded still laughing, "Yeah."

Sonic felt a bit shocked at what she had done, Did...Did she just reject me? He walked behind her leaving everyone else laugh at Rouge and Knuckles bickering. He ran stopping Amy from entering the bathroom.

"What's you're problem Amy?"

She finally looked at him, he saw her ice cold look at him and shivered. This was not Amy's lovey dovey eyes, there was no warmth in them, they looked dead.

"You Sonic, you are my fucking problem." She pushed him angrily making him stumble on something and fall slammed the door on him.

Sonic couldn't believe what had happened, her words that she had said. She had also pushed him making him fall, it didn't hurt or anything but it was shocking. Something like a stinging pain was coming from the back of his head, he didn't know what it was but it sure hurt. Sonic shook his head and stood up. Amy opened the door and completely ignored him, then like nothing had happened she joined the party. Sonic's eyes widened, What the hell...

He shivered at the memory, he then remembered the small box in his hand. He slowly ripped the wrap paper, then he carefully ripped open the box. He took out a key chain that he once saw in a store not too long ago. His eyes shined a bit seeing it. He absolutely liked it, Sonic smiled thanking Amy mentally for not forgetting his birthday. Suddenly, he felt tears well up in his eyes. Why does it hurt? Why?

Sonic felt somebody behind him and quickly wiped away some tears, it was Shadow.

"Amy is missing."

Sonic turned around to this, "What? How do you know?"

Shadow narrowed his eyes, "I always make sure Amy is okay, I just came back from her house and nobody is home."

Sonic shrugged trying to fake no worry, "Maybe she went out on a walk."

Shadow grunted, "Sonic, it's 11 at night, you think she would walk out at this time knowing the danger?"

"Fuck..We need to find her!"

Sonic gathered everyone to talk about this, Cream gasped already panicking. "Oh my God! Oh my God! I-I need to go out now!"

Tails grabbed her hand, "No! It's to dangerous Cream! You stay with Rouge."

Knuckles growled, "If anyone harms her, they die." Knuckles really grew fond of Amy after he realized that she wasn't the same girl anymore, as they hung out more, Knuckles could really talk to her about serious matters and Amy would actually listen and give him very good advice.

"Let's go already!" Sonic shouted.

Shadow, Knuckles, Tails and Shadow went on the lookout for Amy Rose.

Amy was now beside the bed hugging herself with her knees to her chin trying to calm herself down. Scourge hasn't come back for a while and she was very scared of what he had planned for her. What am I going to do? I can't get out of here, there are too many people! Oh gosh, what have I gotten myself into?

Her ears perked up after hearing footsteps coming closer to the room, Scourge.

Scourge slammed open the door grinning mischievously, he looked like he was in a fight with his lip bleeding and a big bruise on his cheek. He threw himself on the bed putting his hands behind him sighing.

"C'mon babe, lay beside me, I know you're there."

Amy gulped, she knew if she didn't obey he'd probably hurt her again."

Scourge opened one eye as she slowly as she tried to find a soft spot to lay. He turned around observing her, Amy gulped once more feeling nervous as his eyes eyed her whole body, from head to toe. He really did find beautiful this girl. She laughed nervously and Scourge chuckled. His hand suddenly caressed her cheek.

"You really are a beauty babe."

Amy blushed hard, Scourge as mean as he is really knew how to make a girl feel good. Amy turned around not wanting to show him her blush.

"Th-thanks..."

"It's nothing babe."

Someone knocked on the door, "Sir, what you wanted is here."

Scourge got up quickly, he opened the door, "Thanks." He slammed the door.

"Babe, since you're mine now, there are a few rules around here."

Amy rolled her eyes, "I'm not yours." She narrowed her eyes at him.

Scourge shook his head, "Na-aa-aa babe, sorry but I as I said before...Wrong time wrong place, this city is mine. You are mine."

"Fuck you."

He growled, "Babe you're wasting my patience, behave or else."

Amy sighed giving up, there was nothing she could do. Amy was his prisoner.

"That's more like it, anyway, as I was saying, being mine I have to maintain you the way I want. Take those clothes away and put this on." He threw her a dress. It was a black short dress, it had a red stripe around her waist. It was really sexy looking and Amy could only look at it with disgust.

"You really expect me to wear that?"

He shrugged, "I don't expect it, you are going to wear it. Or I could just undress you myself."

Amy bit the inside of her cheek wanting so badly to curse at him, she just couldn't win against him. She walked up to him snatching angrily the dress. "Where do I change?"

He pointed beside him, "There's the bathroom, make it quick. I wanna see you already in that."

She mumbled some things as she walked inside. After a minute, she shyly walked outside. Scourge turned around and grinned. The dress fit her perfectly, showing some nice curved, booty and breasts.

"Daaaamn."

"Shut up."

He grabbed her by the waist and whispered, "You behaved quite well this night, if you hadn't...My oh my would you have been getting laid tonight. See, behave pinky."

She froze fearing this, she was still a virgin, saving it for someone special. She couldn't allow this to happen, for him to easily steal her innocence. She had to do what he pleased just for her own good.

"Please don't."

Scourge let her go, "Well babe, sleep well tonight, tomorrow we'll be talking about my ownership over you. You can sleep in my room. I gotta get some stuff done anyways."

She looked at herself in a nearby mirror, she hated to admit it but she was looking hot.

Damn it, I wanna go home.
