(Me: I'm glad that you guys like my story, and yes Lyra will show her true colors soon!)
As Amy is walking home, she looks up at the night sky and remembers that fateful night-
"Hey babe what are you here alone, come with me" says Guy #1 as he tries to put his arm around her.
She brushes him off and replies "Sorry, I want to be alone." As she continues walking away, another guy ambushes her.
"Hey baby how come you don't want to play with us" says Guy#2.
Amy is agitated by this and tells them once again to leave her alone or else. They start to laugh, thinking that she's so cute. (ME: Big mistake on their part!) While she walks away, Guy #2 pushes her right up against the side of a building while touching her 'private area'. Suddenly, Amy knees him in the crouch. He grunts in pain, while Guy#1 bends down to help him.
Amy's eyes turn to a dangerous blood shot red. She says in a demonic voice "You pissed me off, now you're going to pay!" A mysterious shadows fleets by Guy #1. The man feels as if his heart is being snatch away from his body. He asks his friend to help him. However, it is no use. In an instant, his friend's chest is ripped open and blood is gushing out.
Guy #2 looks frightened, he demands that she tell him who she is. He tries to get up, but his body is weighing him down. He finally straightens himself up and tries to run away. He ran a far distance from the building. He lets out a big sigh and wipes off the sweat from his forehead. He believes that he is safe, unfortunately he is mistaken.
He hears a calming hum coming from the bushes. He feels a cold draft passing by him; he feels cold. He tries to tune out the hum and places his hands on his ears and closes his eyes as he tries to think positively. As soon as he feels like he's safe, he opens his eyes only to see Amy standing right in front of him.
His eyes open wide and his mouth drops. He feels as if cement was poured on him because he is not able to move a muscle. His throat closes and it becomes hard for him to breathe let alone talk.
Amy at this point is laughing at him. She says "Aren't you the bad boy, what cats got your tongue?" She walks to him and begins to caress his chest. As she is going this, she lets out a smirk.
The guy tries to say something, but only a "I...I...uhhh" comes out. Finally, he is able to move his arm, he tries to reach into his pocket to take out his blade. As he grasps the handle, his arm is ripped right off of him; he lets out a scream. The guy begins to beg for mercy, but it is too late.
Amy leans in to whisper in his ear. She says "I'm your worst nightmare"
The man lets out a final scream...
*xx*
The next day Sonic wakes up and finds himself still on the couch. He sits up and lets out a huge sigh. He stretches his arms and puts them down abruptly. His back is arched and snake-like- it is really aching! "Ughh... How the heck did I get here?" He thinks to himself.
He shakes his thoughts off and walks to the kitchen to make himself some breakfast. He looks down at the counter and sees a note. The note says "Hey hun, I went out with a friend I'll see you soon. P.S. I left some waffles in the microwave." He sets the note down and begins to make himself some coffee. He turns to get the remote and turns on the T.V. A news report is announced: "We have discovered two bodies in Station Square park. These men are unidentified and we have received information that the witness who discovered the bodies is making his statement at the police station. The police is unsure if this tragedy was caused by a mob attack or a serial killer. The police advises that all citizens stay indoors at night."
Sonic is shocked to hear this news and thinks about the eyes he saw last night. "Could it be that this ghost has anything to do with these deaths." Suddenly, he is startled by the telephone rings. He picks up the phone and says "Acorn residence, can I help you?"
The person on the other line replies "Wow.. How polite of you. Now get your butt to Mystic Ruins pronto." Sonic replies "You jerk,! You can at least say good morning. I'll be on my way." Sonic rushes upstairs to get ready, forgetting to turn off the coffee machine. He runs out of the house at the speed of light.
*xx*
As he is running to the train station, he trips on to the taxi driver (Me: Remember the one in the first chapter, well that's him).The taxi asks Sonic "Why are you in a hurry young man. Don't be out too late, there may be a serial killer on the loose." Sonic tells the taxi driver "Same to you too. Please be careful."
A mild wind blows and the taxi driver looks up at the sky. He notices that the clouds are getting grey. He says "The time has come, the stars are aligning and evil is approaching. The past and the future are intertwining to make one night of the spare. Please be careful Sonic." the taxi driver walks away and vanishes once he turns into a corner.
Sonic tries to follow him, but as soon as he turns into the corner, the man is gone. "Geesh, what a weirdo. Uhh.. How did he know my name? And, what did he mean by that?" Sonic asks himself. Then. he remembers that he must go to the Ruins. Again, he runs like the speed of lighting.
*xx*
Sonic arrives, he sees that the whole gang is there, except for Amy. They begin to question the strange deaths that occurred the night before. They are all giving their hypothesis of what happened the night before.
Tails says "I think that those two were in a gang and the leader had them killed like the reporter stated."
Rouge disagrees and says "Weird things have been occurring lately, can it be that our old foes want to pay us a visit?"
Cream gets scares and blurts out "Can it be a monster?"
Knuckles ruffles Cream's head to comfort her. He then says in unison with Shadow "I think it's the mafia"
Sonic glares at the two and says "Shut up you two, stop trying to help. You'll fry your neurons!"
Suddenly, Cream sees the bushed ruffling and points her observation to the rest.
Sonic says "Hold on. I'll go and check." When he walks to the moving bushes, he is startled by Silver and Blaze.
Silver is wearing a purple cloak which he uses to over his mouth. He begins to tell the clan "I have been feeling a powerful aura around this part of town. I haven't felt this type of presence before, I believe it is a new enemy." Blaze slides towards her friend and hits him on the head.
Blaze tells him "You're being rude. Can't you greet them first." Silver replies "Ohh.. Yeah, we haven't seen them in a while. Hi guys!"
"Again like I was saying, I have been feeling a powerful but dark aura in these parts." Sonic reveals to the clan that he has also been feeling as if a new enemy has been existing among them, but that this enemy is like an invisible or hidden being.
They all gasp and ask Sonic "What should we do?"
"Nothing for now, let's see if this monster or whatever it is appears soon enough" says Sonic.
All of them stood silent for a moment, until Amy blurts out "What are you guys doing here. Did someone die or something?"
Cream says "Amy, haven't you heard the news. Two men were killed yesterday"
Amy replies "So, what does that have to do with us. Those guys were scum bags. They deserved it"
Silver and Blaze stare at Amy with hateful eyes. They ask her "What's up with your attitude. Two men are dead, does that not mean anything to you?"
"Umm... Let me think... No, like I said they were scum! Just like Prince-" Amy stops and walks away.
Silver approaches Sonic, he confides in him "Amy. There's something wrong with her."
Rouge also agrees with this observation and asks everyone "What's up with her. She has been acting strange lately. It's not like her."
Again, they begin to speculate if her attitude has anything to do with these deaths.
Cream tells the gang "Please stop this. She is our friend we're suppose to support her." She begins to sob. Rouge and Shadow offer to take Cream home.
Tails, Sonic, Knuckles, Blaze and Silver remain at the ruins.
Tails suggests that they must follow Amy around to see if she's an accomplice.
They all consent to this and are off on their way home.
*xx*
As Sonic walking back home, he remembers that he forgot to turn off the coffee maker. ''Crap! I left the coffee out to too long!'' He runs back home.
*xx*
Sonic arrives home thinking it all clear, but he hears a yell coming from the kitchen. He enters to see Sally covered in coffee. ''Oh hi, babe, hehehe...Funny story..''
Sally looks at him and points to the coffee marker and says, ''Oh really, do tell.''
Sonic thinks of an escape plan and responds, ''I'll be right back, I forgot to buy milk.'' Sally is about to grab him by the arm, but by then he was off.
*xx*
Sonic is walking with milk jar in hand. He begins to think about Amy's remark. ''Who is this Prince guy? Why did she seem so upset after saying that..? And more importantly, who the hell is this taxi driver guy?'' Without noticing he accidently let go of the jar of milk. He tries to save it, but it hits the ground and explodes.
He says to himself, ''No milk. No excuse, what am I going to tell Sally now...''
(Me: Lol! Oh god, poor Sonic. Always thanks so much for reading this story and yes, Amy will show her true colors soon. Thanks again LadySerenity89. :)
