The Maid
Chapter 4
Promise
"Amy! Amy! Get up!"
Amy slowly opened her eyes and saw Blaze's face. "Huh?"
"You have to wake up now! You only have like 5 minutes~!"
Amy's eyes shot up. She quickly got ready and was done in 3 minutes.
"Ready~!"
The 3 other maids giggled.
"Let's go!" Rouge said, "Breakfast should be done!"
Once they got downstairs, Rouge started to talk. "Ok, I usually do the cooking, Blaze does the bathrooms and other house stuff, Cream does the rooms and the laundry. There was another one, but she'll be back here at like noon... and we will be in hell..."
"What! She's coming back!" Cream cried.
"Yep. She said that she was just going out only for yesterday..." Rouge said.
"Wait... who-" Amy said
"Don't worry about it!" Blaze said smiling.
"Amy, why don't you help Cream?" Rouge said as she was getting out some food.
"Ok."
As Cream and Amy headed up the stairs... there was some... music heard.
"Whoa... who plays that?" Amy questioned.
"Oh, that's just Mr. Shadow."
"It sounds... familiar." Amy said... 'Just like the ones Mother would play...'
Once they got in Mr. Stevens' room, Cream said "Oh, dear! I forgot to bring the laundry basket! Amy, could you go tell Blaze to give it to you?"
"Oh, sure, Cream!" Amy ran downstairs, trying not to trip on her dress.
But she stopped. The piano sounds were turning into terrible mistakes. Amy had to stop this. This Shadow was ruining the music.
She slowly approached a room, with one piano and one guy ruining the music.
Shadow looked frustrated and tried to hit the note again, but missed miserably.
"No, this is how you do it..." Amy said as she approached the piano. She played the part perfectly. Of course she would, every morning, her mother would play it to her.
"How... How do you know?" Shadow asked quite surprised.
"Um... My mother would play it every morning to me."
"Oh, I see and WHY ARE YOU HERE!" He said rudely
"I'm sorry, but I had to stop this terrifying sound coming in here."
"Pff... yeah like if you would know."
Upstairs, Cream was getting worried. 'What if that girl came back? What's taking Amy so long?' Cream ran downstairs and heard some people talking. She slowly peeked in the room and saw Amy... teaching Mr. Shadow how to play the piano?
"Amy...!" Cream said
Amy turned her head. "Oh, oops. Sorry Cream! Um... lost track of time?"
Cream smiled.
Amy was heading out and then stopped. "Don't forget what I told you. You hit that key first and then the other one."
As Amy left with Cream, Shadow was stunned at what this girl just taught him.
Cream and Amy finished the rooms and were going to do the laundry.
"Oh, am I glad that you came here to help me! I really couldn't do all of this by myself. And I was getting quite lonely." Cream said
"Yeah... oh, and what about this other maid? Who is she?"
Cream's eyes shot up. "She's the devil's wife! She's just a brat! She will lie, cheat and pretend to be your friend but will end up being your enemy. So when she comes, do NOT listen to all the crap she will say. Either way you do it, she'll end up hurting you."
"Oh, my... I hope we don't end up... being... enemies."
"Well... we are all."
"Are there other people who... work here besides her and you all?" Amy questioned
"HmmHmm! There is another one. He went to do something for Mr. Stevens about 2 days ago. He should be back this evening. Also, there is the mailman, who does the Pony Express. Rouge really likes him. And is the one who opens the door only for him. Ha ha! She must have thought you were him, yesterday. He always comes like every 2 weeks."
"Oh... well... that will mean I'll have more friends then."
They both laughed and continued their work.
Noon had come... and Rouge, Blaze, and Cream were acting weird.
"It can't be so bad..." Amy said.
"No, you don't know a single thing about her!" Blaze said with sweat forming in her forehead.
"Hey..." Rouge said. "I haven't noticed this before..." She reached up to Amy's heart shaped locket.
"Oh, this?" Amy questioned. "This is very valuable to me. And also a music box I have upstairs. The music box was the last gift from my parents. The locket is the first."
"Whoa... it looks really pretty." Cream said.
"See?" Amy opened it up to reveal the picture.
"Aw... is that you?" Blaze said.
"Yes when I was a baby. And that's my mother and father."
"Wait..." Rouge said "Did you just say... that the music box was the last gift of them?"
"Yes... they... passed away about 4 months ago..."
"Oh, my! I'm truly sorry!" Cream said hugging Amy.
"No... it's alright. But thank you, anyways."
There was a loud bang on the door, Rouge looked up and said "Oh, no... Hell is already here."
"What?" Amy questioned.
Rouge went to open the door. Amy and the rest stayed in the kitchen. All they could hear was "Well, Well, if it isn't Little Miss Batty."
"It... sounds... evil." Amy said.
Then Rouge came in with someone else. "Amy... This is... Sally Acorn. She is um... the maid we were telling you about."
"What?" Sally said "Shadow actually let you have the job? My, I can tell why... you pretty face. Hi! My name is Sally! Let's be friends!"
Sally all-of-a-sudden looked like an innocent girl.
"Heh... Heh... ok." Amy said nervously.
"Oo... I can't wait to start working with you..." Sally gave a creepy smile.
Amy's eyes twitched "O'really?"
"Yep.."
"OK!" Rouge said pulling Amy closer to her. "Time for lunch! Amy... why don't you help me, now?"
"Sure!" Amy smiled.
"Oh, I don't think so." Sally said "So... um "Amy" You have to tell me more about yourself!"
"I'm sorry, but Rouge asked me to help her, I can talk to you later~."
Sally glared at her and said "Whatever."
She walked away.
"What is she going to do?" Amy questioned.
"Ugh, being a bitch, that's what she does best." Blaze said crossed.
"Hun, she does nothing. I'm serious. She does nothing! All she does is boss us around. And they PAY her." Rouge said
"Is that her job?"
"No, she is suppose to do the bathrooms, but no~, she says "I can't let my beautiful hands get dirty!" And now, Blaze has to do the double because, she doesn't want to get her hands dirty! And then we put her to do the rooms at least! And guess what? She wouldn't even do that! And Cream had to do double, also." Rouge said getting angrier at every word that came out of her mouth.
"That's not fair." Amy said.
"Life's not fair." Blaze said leaving.
Lunch had come and Cream served the food.
"What? No soup this time?" Shadow asked.
"Oh, hush. Dang, are you never going to shut up?" Mr. Stevens said.
Shadow glared at him. "Whatever..."
"Oh, I heard Sally came back."
"...Shit."
"Shadow are you only going to say one word only?"
"..."
"Oh, so now it's nothing? I see how it is!"
There was a loud bell heard at the door, and Rouge quickly ran over to get it.
Before opening it, Rouge made sure she looked pretty. She made sure her hair wasn't messy. Once she opened it, her smile grew wide.
"Hello there, Knuckles..."
"Um.. hey, Rouge." He said. Knuckles was a red echidna. He wore a... um I think cowboy hat. You know? To keep the sun away? Yeah? Cool.
"So... what brings you here?" She asked.
"Um... I just came in to bring the mail. Here." He handed out a few letters out so that she could get them.
"Why don't you come inside?" Rouge asked.
"Oh, no. It's fine. And also, I should be going."
"What? NO! I-I-I mean, please! At least let me give you water!"
Knuckles hesitated but gave in. "OK."
She quickly ran to get water and ice, which was very odd to see, especially in a hot summer day.
"Here!"
"Hm? Oh! Thank you, Rouge." Knuckles left and waved goodbye to her.
Rouge blushed and happily sighed. She gave the letters to Mr. Stevens and went walking back to the kitchen.
"What's up with her?" Mr. Stevens said taking the letters.
In the kitchen, Amy was washing the dishes when she saw Rouge with hearts in her eyes and blushing.
"Whoa... what do we have here?" Amy teased.
"Oh, Amy! Why does he only come every 2 weeks?" Rouge wined.
"Who?"
"Why, Knuckles the Echidna! He is so handsome!" Rouge said dreamily.
"O'really?" Amy teased
"Oh, if you would see him... he is so dreamy... My one wish is to one day marry him!"
"Hm..." Is all Amy could answer.
"Have you ever loved a guy before?" Rouge questioned.
Amy's eyes looked at hers.
Shadow was about to walk in the kitchen for something when he heard Rouge ask that question to Amy. He stayed quiet and made sure the females wouldn't see him or hear him.
"I... well... I... yes?"
Rouge squealed making Shadow's ears to blow up. He covered them. 'Dang! Do girls really have to squeal? Like for real!'
"Really! Who? WHO?" Rouge asked eagerly.
"I... I don't know... I really did love him! He... he was my everything. But that's not important anymore."
"Well... can you tell me more about him?" Rouge said eagerly.
"Um... perhaps later."
"Sure! I bet he is handsome! But... not as handsome as Knuckles!" She teased making Amy smile.
'Who is this guy?' Shadow questioned in his head. 'I have to find out- WAIT! WHAT AM I SAYING! I don't care about her life. It was probably some guy who loved to play with woman's hearts. Yeah, that-'
"SHADOW!" Mr. Steven called out.
Shadow was startled at this sudden loudness that he bumped into a vase that was next to him making it drop and break.
"Dammit!"
Rouge and Amy quickly came to look at the accident.
Rouge quickly went to get the broom.
"Well! Aren't you going to clean this up!" Shadow yelled at Amy who was just standing there.
"Well... sorry... But... how did you bump into this? Aren't you suppose to be eating?" Amy questioned.
"I-I Um... well you see... wait... AND WHO TOLD YOU, YOU COULD QUESTION ME?"
"Geez... sorry?"
Rouge came with the broom in her hand. Shadow left to sit at the table.
"Now, what were you doing over there?" Mr. Sevens said.
"I... was going to get something when I remembered..."
"Ugh... excuses, excuses." Mr. Stevens shook his head. "Right. As I was saying... your mother should be back by this evening."
"You know Mother is dead." Shadow said coldly.
"Ugh, then how should I say it? Your Step-Mother? Alright then, your Step-Mother is coming this evening with Tails. Oh, and one more thing, a letter came in saying I have to go to war. They need me."
Shadow just scoffed.
"You'll also go, if things get worse..."
"Whatever..."
Shadow got up and left the table.
'Why does that witch have to come back? Man, things were really peaceful when she left. And why did that squirrel ball come back?'
Shadow thought about it a lot. That would have to mean that... He would have to have dinner with his Step-Mother. And that would be hell.
With Sonic...
"UGH! Where could she be?" Sonic yelled.
"Whoa... what's with all the noise?" His sister, Sonia said.
"Sonia... can I trust you?" Sonic said pulling her to his room, locking the door.
"Um... sure! Anything for my little brother!" Sonia said happily.
"Look... you know... Amy Rose?"
"Oh, that girl you would go visit... like almost EVERY day?"
"Yeah, her!"
"MmHmm... What about her?"
Sonic looked at his older sister. "Could you... please locate where she is? I know you have friends who are great at locating people. Could you please! I... I need to see her!"
"Sonic... maybe it is best... to forget about her... I mean, Mother and Father already told you-"
"I DON'T CARE! I want to go see her!"
Sonia sighed and nodded slowly. Sonic's face was really happy, he smiled so wide that he kissed his sister in the cheek.
"Thank you!"
"Geez Sonic! I haven't seen you this happy ever since you got that toy when you were 5!" Sonia giggled.
There was a knock at the door. Sonic went to open it and saw his father.
"Oh... um hey, Father."
"Sonic. They have ordered us to go to war. Tomorrow we head south, so pack your things."
"... Alright."
Once he left, Sonic turned to his sister. "Promise, you'll mail me the location?"
"Yes."
With Amy...
"Amy! We need help in the kitchen!" Blaze said to her. They were going to prepare a great dinner for Mr. Stevens' wife.
"Oh, OK!" Amy said going to the kitchen.
Rouge and Amy did the meal and it looked wonderful and delicious! Amy was going to put the food out in the table. She brought in the drink, when she bumped into Shadow. Making the drink fall into the floor, making her slip... and fall on top of him.
"Ah!"
Amy looked up and blushed and so did he. They were there for some time until, Sally came in
"Well... Well... what do we have here?"
Shadow quickly pushed her off. "Can't you be more careful? Are you always this clumsy?"
"I'm sorry... I didn't see you there." Amy said picking up the glass.
"Well... WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, SALLY?"
Sally raised an eyebrow. "I dunno, I'm sorry if I was interrupting something..." Sally laughed and walked away to do nothing.
Shadow looked at Amy. "Next time you do that, you'll regret it greatly!" He stormed away.
Amy sighed and went to get something to clean the mess.
Then, after everything was cleaned, and the food was severed, Amy and Rouge were exhausted.
Then, the bell rung. Rouge went to open it and was greeted by a orange yellow fox with two tails. Behind him was a dark orange fox with long wavy hair wearing the most expensive dress ever.
"Welcome back, Mrs. Fiona Fox, hello Tails!" Rouge said getting out of the way to let them pass.
Fiona just rolled her eyes at Rouge and continued to walk. Tails came up to Rouge. "Hey, Rouge! I see you were doing my job pretty well!"
"Yeah, so how was all... of the shopping?"
Tails leaned closer to Rouge, whispering to her. "Boring as hell!"
Rouge giggled and led Tails back to the kitchen. "We have finally have a new maid, Tails!"
"We do? Oh, cool!"
Amy was cleaning the counters with a cloth. She looked up at the young fox and smiled.
"Hello! My name is Amy Rose! What's yours?" She said waving.
"My name is Miles "Tails" Prower. But my friends call me Tails and I also prefer that too. I'm the butler in this house, I was away for about 2 day to leave with Mrs. Fiona to go... shopping. Yuck!"
Amy giggled "Ha ha! Lucky!"
"No, I'm joking, I was just waiting outside."
"Ha ha... good."
At the dinner table, Mr. Stevens were already at the table and so was Fiona.
"Where is your son, Stevens?" Fiona questioned.
"Oh, I don't know? Amy!" Mr. Stevens called out.
Amy came in "Yes, sir?"
"Could you please call Shadow to come over?"
Amy nodded and went upstairs.
"Who the hell is that?" Fiona said
"Why, it's out new maid!"
"Ugh, you mean your son actually let her stay? My, my."
Amy knocked at his door, but there was no answer. She slowly opened it. "Shadow?"
There was no answer.
She opened the door and saw Shadow on his bed. He was looking at the ceiling.
"Shadow, your father wants you to-"
"I won't go."
"But, Shad-"
"Look, I made my choice."
"Ok, then. I still don't get why you don't want to eat with your mother."
Amy headed out the door when Shadow called out. "She's not my mother."
"Excuse me?"
"She's my Step-Mother. And I hate her. She wastes my father's money, she has two faces, she even caused the death of... Ugh... nevermind."
Amy looked at him with concerned eyes.
Downstairs, Mr. Stevens was getting mad.
"The food is getting cold. What is taking her so long in telling him that?"
"Oh, what a great maid you hired us." Fiona said sarcastically.
Then, they saw Shadow coming downstairs and sat down in the table.
Mr. Stevens and Fiona was shocked to see him sitting down.
'Whoa! This is the first time Shadow actually sat down to eat with us ever since Fiona and I got married.'
Dinner was quiet.
Soon, the sun had set and another day had ended.
