Hey here's the next installment of 'I don't exist?' Do not own anything except my Oc's.
Jecht's head was spinning. He couldn't get it to stop as he walked in pure darkness. He had no idea how he got there! He took another step only to fall over and land in a field of flowers, then to find a cute blonde girl standing there casually.
"You must be Jecht!" she asked or rather stated. Jecht looked at her oddly, how'd she know his name?
'Who are you?" he asked her as he got up. The blond girl smile sweetly to him.
"I'm SHiDow! NiGHTS is expecting you!" she said as she beckoned to follow her.
"NiGHTS? I thought he died!" Jecht yelled in hearing the good news.
"Well he didn't" SHiDow said as she adjusted her braid as she kept walking.
"How?" Jecht asked.
"How what?" she turned.
"How'd he survive? His shard was smashed….I saw it"
"Well you could asked him that. Let's go!" with that SHiDow lead him where NiGHTS was waiting patiently.
~8 minutes later!~
"Jecht good to see you again!" NiGHTS said casually as he stopped playing his dream flute. Jecht was dumbfound. He was his former teacher! Alive and well with his shard showing indications of being crushed, smashed, or destroyed.
"….." Jecht just stared.
"Jecht? You ok lad?" NiGHTS waved his hand in front his face, making him snap out of his daze. Jecht snapped out of it and noticed NiGHTS in front of him with a worried look.
"Huh? What?" he asked. NiGHTS and SHiDow gave him weird looks.
"Sorry it's hard to believe that you're still alive NiGHTS" Jecht said.
"Amelia will be so relieved!" he said. NiGHTS looked down, feeling a wave of guilt hit like water. SHiDow put her hand on his shoulder in a friendly gestured making him feel better.
"Jecht….." NiGHTS asked to get his attention.
"Yea?"
"I've seen Amelia….a whiles back" he started.
"Really? How long ago?" Jecht asked him.
"In this world time 6 months ago…" NiGHTS said to him.
"Ok…that's 6 hours in our time, but you called me here for a reason, so what's up?"
"I….I have to be…." NiGHTS hesitated somewhat. This was really hard for him to say, especially with one his former students here.
"It's ok NiGHTS…..I take it from here" SHiDow said as she understood his discomfort. NiGHTS glanced at her giving her a small smile as a thank you.
"Jecht….NiGHTS have give his shard to one of his students" she said sadly. Jecht's eyes shot up in shock.
"What? NiGHTS is that true?" Jecht asked him.
"Yes…." he said sadly as he shook his head.
"Why?"
"Huh?"
"Why me? Why NOT Amelia!" Jecht shouted a bit angry. NiGHTS gave him a blank look and spoke.
"Amelia has my staff and knows how to transform into a NiGHTS MaREN….You on the other hand can't" NiGHTS put simply.
"So? I just wanted to get stronger! Not learn how to shape shift!" Jecht stated to him harshly.
"Well I'm still giving you the shard!" NiGHTS told him. Jecht looked at him and shook his head no, sadly to his friend and former teacher.
"NiGHTS….I'm sorry…I can't" Jecht said as he turned his back on them. NiGHTS looked at him before speaking once again.
"May I ask why?"
"It's just…*sigh*" Jecht put his hand on his forehead before continuing.
"Yes?"
"I don't deserve it…" Jecht said turning to face them. NiGHTS looked at him and held the shard out for him to have it. He didn't make an advance towards it or even look at it at all.
"Amelia deserves it more than me, I only tried to get stronger that's all" he confessed.
"To get stronger? Why did you want to get stronger? Most have a reason behind it" NiGHTS asked him. Jecht gave him a look, not expecting to be asked that so soon.
"I wanted to…protect Amelia…she's special to me, a selfish reason I know…" he said as red stained his cheeks and beak. NiGHTS smiled sincerely to his student and placed his hand on his shoulder in a friendly gesture.
"Jecht…..please…if you want to protect Amelia then do this for her" he told him.
"How will this shard help me and protect those special to me?" the Babylonian asked him.
"This shard is made of pure and untainted Chaos energy produced by Ideya….As long as you have a purpose or goal this shard will benefit you to your causes as long as it's selfless" NiGHT explained to him and placed the shard on Jecht's chest, where his heart is located. The shard began to glow brightly as it accepted it new host and keeper, as it shone it began to dissolve into his flesh until it was completely inside his body.
"What the heck was that?" Jecht asked as he felt no pain from that experience what so ever. NiGHTS took a step back next to SHiDow, who was waiting patiently for NiGHTS to finish.
"The shard is now one with you Jecht, it accepted you and you accepted it"
"What?"
"Jecht I'm sorry…" black smoke began to surround Jecht. Jecht tried to reach out to NiGHTS, but found out that he couldn't move legs at all.
"No NiGHTS!" he called out. NiGHTS smiled sadly watching another of his friends to go.
"Jecht….." Jecht stopped struggling and looked at the NiGHT MaREN with a devastated look as the smoke covered his extremities.
"Take care of her." he said waved goodbye. Jecht wanted to yell out but couldn't, as his voice went mute as he plummeted into nothingness.
-(Jecht( now awakened)-
Jecht woke up with a jolt, startling a boy and a girl next to the bed he occupied. They looked at him wide eyed waiting till he caught his breath. Jecht looked at the palms of his hands as they shook like crazy, reluctantly his hands moved to his face then to his chest where the shard was absorbed into his system. There was no evidence of burns or cuts at all….was it…was it real? He pondered to himself. His eyes then grew again and remembered to what happened a while back, how'd he get here?
"Hey take it easy…" a soft voice said to him. Jecht moved his head towards the source of the voice. He almost fell backwards, there he thought he saw a copy of Hope Kintobot(? Is that how you spell the name?), but took a second look and realized it wasn't her. This girl had blond hair and blue eyes, yes; But she wore a hot pink sweater vest with a blue tie, white blouse, and a grey skirt. She was sitting in a wheel chair.
"wh-wh-where am I?" he stuttered out nervously as shock and his nerves took a toll on him. The girl placed a hand on head, getting the knots of his short feather off his head. This soothed him, as it reminded him of his mother back home.
"You're safe, don't worry" the boy said to him. Jecht looked at the boy to see him wearing an odd long sleeve red, black, and yellow shirt, with blue pants, and odd sneakers.
"what happened?" Jecht asked them. The girl looked at him before her explanation.
"You were in the river, drowning…..I was nearby and jumped in to save you" the girl said softly.
"How'd you get in the river?" the boy asked him. Jecht looked at him before answering.
"I fell in….from somewhere…..I can't remember exactly where but….I was looking for my friend Amelia" Jecht told them as he laid his head back on the pillow. He saw a clock next to the bed and it read: 4:57 pm.
"How long was I out?"
"Only a few hours, less then 8 hours at least" the boy said. Jecht looked at him and then the room. It was painted a pale peach and only had a dresser, bed, closet, and nightstand. It was a guest room.
"I'm Jecht the Hawk of the Babylonian Rogues" he introduced himself to them.
"I'm Helen" the girl said.
"And I'm Chris" the boy said.
"where did you come from exactly?" Helen asked him. Jecht sat up and his feather got ruffled a bit in the process.
"It's a long story….Did I have my bandana on me? Or did get wash away?"
"It's here and we got time" Chris said as he handed him his black and white bandana.
"Alright then…" So Jecht began telling them his story on how he got there.
-(Meanwhile with Amelia)-
"Here place this cool towel on her forehead, hopefully it will bring her temperature down a bit" a Hispanic women said to a pink hedgehog.
"I'm going bring some water in case she wakes up" the woman said as she began to walk out of the guest room.
"Sure thing Ella" Amy said as she put the towel on the ebony hedgehog's head. The patient groan as the two elements clashed together, but then calmed down as she grew accustom to it. Amy took a seat next to the bed thinking about what happen earlier. Chris and Helen came in with what looked to be an knocked out bird with weird feathers, according tot Chris, Helen rescued it from the river last night as it nearly drowned. As of right now it, recently woke up and took the room next to this one. Amy looked back at the ebony hedgehog that occupied this room. It was weird for Amy, it was looking at twisted mirror image of yourself…is that how Sonic felt when he first saw Shadow? Amy pondered the thought.
"Mom…." the hedgehog said breaking Amy out of her thoughts. The ebony hedgehog woke up and looked at her with a dazed look.
"I'm sorry…but what?" Amy asked her as she moved the cloth from her head. The hedgehog sat up carefully and looked at Amy with an intent gaze, before she rubbed her eyes.
"Sorry…..I thought you were my mom" she said somewhat embarrassed.
"It's ok" Amy said smiling sweetly.
"I'm Amy by the way" she said kindly.
"Amy? What a nice name…My Names Amelia" Amelia said with equal kindness. The two laughed briefly to each other. Amy examined her a little more, her red and yellow dress looked torn and somewhat shredded. Amelia noticed Amy looking at her and waved her hand in front of her eyes.
"Is there something wrong?" Amelia asked her. Amy snapped out of it, realizing that she was staring at her.
"Huh? Oh sorry….." Amy said as a blush stained her cheeks.
"It's ok…..Is it alright if change my dress? This one done for" Amelia asked as she carefully got of bed.
"Sure, I'll wait outside of the room, call me when your done" Amy said as she walked out of the room. Amelia waited till Amy was out before she slid on the floor releasing the breath that she was holding in. That pink hedgehog…that was her mother! If her mother is here then…
"I got to find dad…..he can help me get back to my world" she said to herself as she unbuckled her yellow hip bag. She stuck her hand in and pulled out a green and white dress, style exactly like the one she has on. Amelia took off her black and yellow boots along with her hair band. She replaced them with identical ones but in different colors. Her boots now red with yellow lining on the top and on the soles of them, with a green dot in the middle of the boots. The hair band no green with a red ornament with white two white feathers the tips of them green.
"There….Good thing I packed extra clothes" Amelia said as she checked herself in the mirror that was in the room.(A/n-if you guys want to see how her outfit looks like, then go to deviant , type in Amelia_the_Hedgehog, go to the artist's profile and you'll see a pic of her in a green dress, that's the one she has on now). She placed her other clothes in her magic bag, and put it back on her hips.
"Amy, I'm done!" Amelia called the pink hedgehog in. Amy walked in along with a human boy with brownish spiky hair wearing weird clothing.(Yes, I find Chris's [Sonic X] clothes weird, got a problem with that?).
"Who's this?" Amelia asked as she recoiled a bit, she still wasn't trusting the humans in this world yet.
"This is Chris and this is his home" Amy said to her. Amelia looked the boy and saw threat from him and decided to trust him…..for now.
"I'm Amelia" she said as bowed briefly. Chris just copied so not upset the ebony hedgehog.
"Hello" he said.
"Amelia may I ask you something?" Amy said to draw her attention.
"Yes?"
"Where did you come from?"
"Mobius" she answered truthfully. This pink hedgehog looked puzzled.
"Mobius?" Amy asked.
"It's where I was born and raised! Where do you come from?" Amelia asked.
"A parallel earth of this one" Amy answered. Ok, good…..she not MY mom, but in a way she is mom, but NOT my mom from WHERE I hail. Amelia thought to herself.
"Amelia?" Chris called.
"yes?"
"This other person that came from Mobius in the next room, perhaps it's a friend of yours?" Chris told her.
"Maybe, what's his name?" she asked.
"Jecht the Hawk" he told her. Amelia's eyes grew wide and didn't hesitate a moment to run out the room to see Jecht with Chris and Amy following behind her…..
There Jecht and Amelia again. Man this getting to be harder! Anyway plz R&R~!
