Chapter 3

Silent caresses

Shadow kicked open Amy's door, they decided to check her house for any clues there might be that could lead them to her destination. Everybody barged in, Shadow quickly went to the living room, Tails in the kitchen, Knuckles in the garage and Sonic upstairs in her bedroom. He slowly cracked open the door, it's been such a long time since he'd enter her home. The last time he even came into her room was because Amy showed him her Sonic fan room, there used to be pictures of him, blue walls etc. But now there were black walls with pink hearts, butterflies and other pink decorations. It kind of made Sonic's heart sink a little. He observed her bed, it was messy, Maybe she was trying to sleep...

Her closet was in shape and everything else in the room. He then saw pictures hanging on the wall, there was one with Amy and Tails, Knuckles, Rouge, Cream...Even Shadow. But none with him. Then one caught his attention, it was Amy who was being hugged by a hedgehog who looked a bit like Sonic and even his fur was blue but a few shades lighter, he had the same eyes as Amy. There was a sudden sting in the back of Sonic's head, it began to irritate him. Then he felt a tap on his shoulder making him jump. It was Tails.

"Sonic! Shadow said to come down quickly."

When they met up with them, Shadow was looking very angry.

"Amy's music player is missing and so is her coat. This means she went out for a walk. God damn it, I told her many times to fucking call me if she decided to take a fucking walk!"

Sonic tilted his head a bit in confusion, How did they become close friends? The stinging he already had was stronger even making one of his eye twitch a little.

"Let's head out, we need to fin her quickly." Tails said.

"What are we waiting for? Let's get the hell out!" Knuckles walked outside being followed by Tails and Shadow.

"Hurry up you moron, we have no time of your idiotic actions!"

Sonic nodded running up to them. They decided to divide themselves, Knuckles with Tails and Shadow with Sonic. Tails said to meet up at his place in 2 hours (1 a.m.) at his place. They all agreed to this. Shadow told Sonic to go search in the nearest park where Amy always went to clear her mind. Unfortunately the was no signs of her. Sonic went into the woods along with Shadow making sure she wasn't lost or anything. This made Sonic growl in frustration.

"Where are you Amy?!" He yelled angrily.

Shadow grunted, "Now you care?"

Sonic turned around not understanding, "What do you mean?"

Shadow shrugged, "Never mind, let's get going."

The blue hedgehog stuck his foot out making Shadow trip, "You son of a..." Shadow was about to attack but didn't. It was getting late and had no time for this foolishness.

"Tell me now." Sonic said narrowing his eyes at him.

Shadow stood up with his hands clenched, "We have no time for this it's getting late, we'll talk about this later."

Sonic rolled his eyes, "Fine."

They ran to the nearest city, there was barely nobody around to even ask. They walked quietly trying to grab attention. There were some, but they looked like bad news. Sonic scanned the alley ways, the bridges for any Pink hedgehog. Shadow was at his side looking the other direction for her too. The only lights were some light posts and the moon to guide them around, the city was like a ghost town at night. When they came upon a dark alley, they heard someone call out for help. There was somebody beating up a brown fox.

"If you fuck up again, you know what's going to happen to you."

Sonic couldn't let this happen, "Hey, why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

The guy turned around at him, "Get outta here, I'll deal with you later." His victim gulped and ran as fast as he could.

"Well well well, what have we here? You dare interrupt my doings?"

Sonic shrugged, "It doesn't seem fair to me to pick on someone smaller than you."

The guy walked closer, he had green fur, a black leather jacket and a huge scar on his chest with black jeans. Shadow was intrigued by this, he looked exactly like Sonic only more badass.

"Why don't you just mind you're fucking business hedgehog."

Sonic laughed, "Sorry but it just became mine."

Shadow folded his arms, This is gonna be fun."

"By the way, name's Sonic."

The green furred hedgehog snickered, "I know who you are, Sonic the mother fucking hedgehog and his sidekick, Shadow isn't it?"

Shadow spat, "Pardon me you asshole, I am no sidekick of anyone!"

Scourge smirked, "Any who, you two are the fastest things alive huh? Or is it just Sonic?"

Shadow was getting a bit annoyed, "Sonic is a faker, he copied me and my talent for running."

Sonic rolled his eyes, "Whatever!"

The guy simply laughed, "I have to say, you two are quite entertaining, oh where are my manners, my name is Scourge, and you two are in my city."

"You're city?"

"That's right, city Enigma. Now skadadle, I don't need two morons running out here."

Sonic couldn't take his humor, in a quick move he punched Scourge on the face making him fall nearby. Scourge grinned wiping some blood from his mouth, he simply grinned.

"Another feisty one heh?"

Scourge walked backwards into the darkness of the alley.

"Don't hide you wuss!"

Suddenly he felt a hard kick on his back, Sonic crashed against a post making it break. Shadow's eyes widened wondering how Scourge got there so fast.

"You see blue fucker, you aren't the only with you're special speedy talent."

Sonic turned around to punch him yet again but Scourge dodged it grabbing his arm slamming him against a wall. Sonic grunted in pain. Shadow wanted to join in but knew this was their fight.

"Not so tough anymore huh?"

Sonic gritted his teeth and did a sudden spin dash, Scourge flew may feet away landing hard on the concrete floor. Before Sonic could finish the fight, Shadow grabbed his arm.

"Sonic let's go! We have no time for this! It's getting late. Finish this another time."

Sonic licked his lips, "Listen up, I will meet up with you again and finish this!"

Scourge stood up folding his arms, "Oh, no doubt about it. Until then Sonic." Sonic and Shadow left to meet up at Tails place. Even though it was very late Cream and Rouge were still up. Tails with Knuckles had already arrived.

Cream seeing Sonic enter ran up to him, "Oh mister Sonic please please say you found some kind of clue!"

Sonic frowned, "Sorry sweetie. We, Found. Nothing..."

Tails's ears drooped, "Neither did we."

Cream started crying running up to Rouge, the bat rubbed her back trying to sooth her, "Really nothing?" Rouge asked with a lot of concern in her voice.

Shadow narrowed his eyes, "Nothing. Stupid pink brat..." He left slamming the door behind him.

Sonic sighed, "If I'm gonna be looking for her tomorrow I need some rest. G'night."

Everybody else also left, when Sonic arrived he threw himself on his bed. So many thoughts were on his mind remembering his day. What was going on? Why did Amy disappear? Who was that guy I fought? He looks so much like me...Does he have super speed too? Where the fuck is Amy?!

Before going into a deep sleep he only had one simple thought on his mind.

Amy...

Sunlight woke the pink hedgehog from her deep sleep, she yawned stretching out her arms, her hands rubbing her blurry eyes. When she looked around she gasped realizing her reality. She was on Scourge's bed in his room in his house! Then she heard a knock on her door, she quickly got up and opened up.

"Good morning miss, I was told by Scourge to give you anything you wished. Is there anything you need? What would you like for breakfast?"

It was a female maid, she was a grey fox with blue crystal eyes and white hair, she looked absolutely stunning. Amy shook her head quickly realizing she was only staring at her, "I uh, I would really like to take a shower please."

The maid entered the room, "Would yo prefer a bath instead miss..."

"Rose...Amy Rose but you can call me Amy." She smiled warmly at her.

The maid blushed at her kindness, "I would rather prefer to call you Miss Rose."

Amy nodded, she couldn't believe the treatment she was getting, it made her a bit unconformable. She smiled though remembering that Scourge said he had to maintain her well, he clearly meant this. A couple of minuted passed and the maid walked out of the bathroom, she handed Amy a bath robe, "If you need anything else miss. You still didn't mention what you would like for breakfast."

"Pancakes would be nice."

The maid nodded, she walked out the bathroom and the room closing the door. Amy undressed herself feeling a little shy, she relaxed herself in the warm bubbly bath, she forced her mind to go blank for a few minutes just to relax. Suddenly her mind was swarmed with many thoughts. Do my friends know I'm missing? Are they looking for me? Tails, Knuckled, Cream, Rouge, Shadow...Sonic? Pff even if he is he's doing it just because he has too. Dumb moron!

Oh geez, Shadow is probably pissed off at me. I knew I should have called him. Damn it damn it DAMN IT!

Suddenly her ears perked up at footsteps coming in the room. Then she heard a conversation, it was a female voice with probably Scourge.

"I was told as you said sir, she needed a bath."

"Thanks Lucy, you can leave now."

She got out of the bath not wanting for Scourge to come inside seeing Amy like this. She grabbed the bath robe and put it on. The footsteps got closer and closer, then the bathroom door opened. She froze on the spot, Scourge folded his arms grinning at the scene, Amy was barely covered by the very small bath robe, her ass was almost showing and her breasts were almost bulging out, Amy blushed hard, "Get out!"

Scourge shook his head, "Babe, I can do whatever I please." He got closer, his hand reached out for her but Amy flinched backwards. He frowned not really liking this, it kind of hurt his feelings.

"Babe I'm not a total pervert." he hand was suddenly on Amy's cheek, she opened her eyes slowly realizing what he was doing. Scourge bit his bottom lip, he couldn't understand what made him soften up a bit with her. Was it her blushing? Her feistines, the other girls he fucked didn't compare with this one. Maybe it was her angelic face, her innocence.

Amy could only stare at his face, he looked like he was thinking of something serious. His touch felt so soft against her cheek, she smiled internally, He has a soft side huh?

Scourge licked his lips, "Get dressed babe, I'll meet you downstairs for breakfast. Nice choice of meal." He winked at her and left closing the door behind him. She smiled a bit knowing she had judged him a bit too poorly. I guess he's really not such a big perv as I thought...

Amy sighed, knowing it was going to be a long day.
