Assassin's Love Chapter 9: What?
Sorry for the lateness, but I lost interest for some time, but I am back! Here we go and a special visit by Rob O Hedge and Mari-An!
As Amy falls in the dark night sky in London, a creature flies in and catches the falling hedgehog before she reached her death. Another thunderbolt hits and the creature takes out its retractable claws and aims it for a tower nearby. It caught onto a tower and when they hit, the creature holds Amy tight as they hear the screeches of the claws grinding on the walls of the tower.
She opens her eyes and she then looks up to see a face she dreaded to see.
"Leader… we caught her." A certain lime hedgehog replied. Before Amy made a move, she was cuffed and placed in a choke hold.
"LET GO OF ME, YOU DOUBLE CROSSING BITCH!" She chokes out as she snarls and squirms her way to escape from her clutches. Amy kept on squirming, but the hedgehog didn't want to let go. She takes out a locator and calls,
"Leader, send in back up NOW. Target is trying to escape."
Amy growled and snapped as she was held in the chokehold.
"You traitor!" Amy sneered. "You no good, traitor!"
The creature ignores her, and then receives a response. A dark voice.
"Roger. Send in the target."
Amy then recognizes the voice. She wasn't surprise to know who it was.
"Report to the English Channel, now."
"Copy that."
The lime green hedgehog takes her captive to the English Channel. She then sees something that she knew wasn't part of her plan.
Shadow jumps out a plane and dives into the air. He sees his target and fires a ninja star. When it hits near Asesina, it detonates.
"Ahhhh!"
Then a cloud of smoke takes over, giving Shadow the element of surprise and being discreet. Asesina drops Amy on the ground as the smoke blinds her. Amy hits the ground hard and she goes unconscious.
"Leader, Leader. The target is lost. The Federation has sent in the Trench Coat Assassin!"
Sonic, back on the Liberty, snarls at the name, the damned name, Trench Coat Assassin.
"Assesina, DON'T FAIL ME! CAPTURE AND GET THEM!"
"Leader…that's almost impossible. If I was to do that, it would trigger the sirens here."
"I DON'T CARE! CAPTURE THEM AND GET THEM UNDER GUARD! I'M SENDING IN ASH AND SALLY, NOW DO AS I SAY."
Assesina tries to hold back her pain, but she sighs and sucks it up.
She lets out a few tears at what just happened.
This is the effect of love…true love. No, forget
She shook it off and then got back to her orders. She takes out her weapons and then prepares for fire, only to get another dose of smoke.
Shadow goes into hiding, and then came sirens.
"Shit…"
As the air raid sirens go off, Shadow snarls and curses under his breath.
"Shit. Now all of London knows of us."
Shadow looks down from the Bridge over the English Channel.
"Bloody Christ…"
He then drags the pink hedgehog's unconscious body on his back and anger sears through his body.
"Damn it!"
He jumps into the freezing water and he realizes he's in big trouble. He sees Ash and Mina hiding behind underwater mines.
"How low can these lowlifes go?" Shadow thinks to himself. He looks around and sees that he is still under the bridge. He narrows his eyes towards the shadows and he then notices that Amy had a bungee cord.
He uses all his strength and flings the cord out of the water towards the bridge, hitting a bar. He pulls it and jumps out the water. As he was in mid-air, he is tackled by two of the Freedom Fighters and one of them knocks Shadow out by injecting him with a secrete needle.
"Leader, we got them." Said the mongoose.
"Copy."
Then they hear 'swoosh' sounds. They came from ninja stars in mid-air and detonate.
"ARGH!" the mongoose cursed.
"Ash, whats wrong?" called Mina on her walkie talkie. A teal blur along with a red one and an albino one passes by.
"NO..its not possible…the mercenaries?" Mina gasps, "With the Feds? NO WAY!"
Her face sours as she realizes her nightmare coming true. Mina's family came from a group of mercenaries and Mina left home at 9 years old to join Sonic and the others. She then warns her leader of the possibility of betrayal.
"Leader, the mercenaries are attacking! CAN YOU READ!"
Sonic couldn't believe the situation. He then decides to take matters on his own. He takes a parachute and a couple of weapons.
"On the count of three, boys, give them what you got. 1…2…3…NOW!" said a teal colored hedgehog. He along with a red echidna and a albino hedgehog make a dive for the mongoose and they attack him.
"Rob, now what?!" asked the echidna.
"Now my dear, not to worry over thee, for we shall save these creatures from those wretched people." He replied.
"Yes, love."
Yes, its Rob O Hedge and his friends. They work as mercenaries and they are out for the Federation, but with a backside to it.
"Rob, look! Its Amy!"
Rob turns around and sees his cousin and before he has a chance to take his cousin away, a green blur jumps in and takes both hedgehogs away.
"Back off!" he snarls and then another cloud of smoke helped the green blur disappear in the night.
"Confound it!" Rob o Hedge cursed.
Days Later…
Shadow was the first to waken and he looks up to see himself in a hospital bed. He had IVs in his hand and covered in stickers that connect to the heart monitors. He looks around and he sees Amy across from him. Shadow bows his head in sorrow and he didn't want to be angry at her, for he was in her shoes before.
"Gee, to think I was that crazy when I started out."
Amy was quivering and her teeth were chattering. Shadow felt a bit sorry, but then he felt this anger from her doing something so rash. He wished that he would just walk up to her and slap some sense into her.
"Sh-sh-sh-sh-shadow, I-I-I-I—"
"Don't. Say. A. Word." Shadow replied bitterly. He had no remorse into talking to her, until he tried to decipher why.
"Look, I know you must hate me so much right now."
"I don't hate you, I am enraged with you!" Shadow snarls. He wanted so much to slap her, but knew he couldn't.
Amy begins crying. "See, I disappoint everyone I know, even you! Why did you even come back for me when I wanted to leave this world!"
"There is no need for suicide."
"I CAN'T RUN AWAY EITHER! HOW STUPID ARE YOU? TELL ME!" Amy yells. Shadow is now fed up and snaps back.
"OH SO NOW YOU'RE CALLING ME STUPID?! COMING FROM THE ONE WHO TRIED TO KILL HERSELF AND THE ONE WHO TRIES TO JUMP OFF A TOWER IN LONDON? AND YOU'RE CALLING ME STUPID? THAT'S A LAUGH!"
Amy remained silent. Shadow takes out the IVs and he rips off the stickers from his monitor. He immediately jumps out his hospital bed and he walks towards Amy.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?"
Shadow walks over with his eyes closed.
"You have no idea what it means to suffer."
"Yeah right, if I was a book, I would be full of information of suffering." Amy snarled.
"Yeah right!" Shadow snarls once more. "Its not like you lost your family in this war! Its not like you were a subject at a camp where they decide whether to kill you to feed to the dogs or to use you as a monster to kill. And furthermore, its not like you don't have a family, so you're just an emotionless being, like Assesina and like the other scabs! No shit, who knows if I've been effected by the scabs!"
"YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW ME TO SAY SUCH THINGS! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO CALL ME ANYTHING!"
"OH YEAH!? IS THAT A FACT?! WELL GUESS WHAT, I AM PART SCAB THANKS TO THE ONES THEY CALL, LEADERS!"
Amy gasps and she looks at him in shock.
"YOU HEARD ME, I HAVE NO FAMILY BECAUSE I WAS TAKEN AWAY AFTER BIRTH AND PLACED INTO A LAB, MIXED THE DNA OF SCABS WITH MY OWN AND VOILA, THE COLD BLOODED KILLER YOU SEE HERE TODAY! HAPPY, NO WAIT, SATISFIED?!"
Amy starts to cry a little more. Shadow spirals down into a state of uncertainty.
"No...I am not...I never was...Shadow, I never wanted to hear this!"
"Lies...Lies, and SCANDAL!"
Well, let's see what happens next and I will do my best to write a little quicker.
