Well... so how is everybody liking the new year so far?
Good? Good.
I'm having people conflicts. But it doesn't really matter all that much.
It's been a while since I updated, so here we go again.
Here we go.
I need my android.
Amy's eyes opened wide. She whirled her head around to see who spoken to her.
His voice seemed vaguely familiar.
"Sonic...?" Amy asked.
The guy laughed. "Naw, not quite."
It was easy to confuse the two of them together, he was a blue hedgehog. Light blue highlights.
Standing behind him was a golden coloured cat.
The blue hedgehog crouched down next to Amy, about eye height.
"You could call me that... if you like." he said.
The cat gave him a solid foot in the back, but not enough to topple him over.
"Stop being a pervert." She said. "Just help out the woman."
He looked sideways back to her with a smirk. "But that's what I was doing."
With her foot still on his back, she pressed her foot down, and his face was planted into the dirt.
"Now, as I was about to say..." She said, as the guy mumbled in the dirt. "I'm Dia. This idiot is Mark."
"I'm... Amy."
Dia held out a hand to Amy to shake, and Amy shakily took it. After, Dia helped her up.
"You can get up now." Dia chuckled.
Mark lifted himself up onto his elbows.
"JERK!"
Dia just kept chuckling. Amy couldn't help but smile.
Dia had one arm around Amy's back and the other on her shoudler. Amy's legs still weren't in working condition.
After Mark had gotten up and dusted himself off, and looked rather presentable, he lightly bowed to Amy.
"You looked like you were in trouble, so we came to help." Mark said.
"Er..." Amy looked a bit confused. "Th-thank you. It's just that... my legs gave out. I'm just worried about a friend."
"Ah." Dia nodded. "Just adrenaline?"
"Something like that." Amy replied.
"What happened to your friend?" Mark asked.
"Mark! That's too personal." Dia scolded.
"Dia..."
"No... it's alright." Amy replied. "But while I talk, let's walk back to the town. I think I'm alright now."
Dia nodded again, and let Amy go.
Amy began walking. "I was with two friends, actually. One I met yesterday and one I've known for a long time." She stopped for a second. "Well... one of them just collapsed... and started coughing up blood."
"Agh..." Dia said. "That's not good."
"She was a little odd, though. She had a metal arm-."
Mark and Dia stopped short.
"A metal... arm?" Mark asked,
Amy looked a little confused. "Yeah... a red fox..."
"She's... coughing up blood? Collapsing?" Mark asked. He looked like he was about to panic.
"Did she lose her eyesight and her hearing?" Dia asked. She looked as panicked as Mark did.
Amy nodded.
"Do you know her...?" Amy asked.
"She's family!"
"Point me in the right direction!" Mark exclaimed, and picked Amy up. "Forgive me."
Mark took off running at Sonic speed. Dia, surprisingly fast, ran after him.
Amy bit her lip and prayed to God that Odessa wasn't going to die. She kept Mark going in the right direction.
Her legs had gave out again.
The whole room was quiet as Fynnsat with her hands on Odessa's face. She looked deep in concentration.
The whole room jumped when a purple echinda appeared, literally out of nowhere.
They thought.
"I'm here Fay." She said. Her eyes were like ice... and didn't look living.
"Jasper, I need your help." Fynn mumbled.
Topaz wasn't very far, but he jogged over to Fynn.
"Okay." Topaz replied. Carefully, as Fynn lifted her fingers, he placed his in the same spots.
Fynn got up off the couch, and slid her hands underneath Odessa's back. She lifted Odessa up off the couch and laid her down on the floor.
Everybody watched in awe as Fynncarefully bent Odessa's head to the side. She pulled apart the scar from her missing ear and revealed a metal piece. She seemed to removed all the skin from there to her neck.
The echindaunzipped the grey jacket she was wearing. She had a black tank top on underneath.
The echinda closed her eyes. The material on the back of her shirt appeared to de-materialize into her skin, leaving her back exposed. The rest of her shirt remained in place.
Mechanical wires lifted from the echinda's back, as if they were pieces of her spine. She sat down on the floor, her back to Odessa.
Fynn grabbed the wires and carefully hooked them into plugs at the base of Odessa's head. After a few seconds of adjusting, she seemed to hit a certain switch.
After a few seconds, Odessa's body eased up. She let out one, slow breath, and then she appeared not to be breathing.
Tails broke the silence.
"What did you do?"
Fynn, not looking over to Tails, replied "I shut her down."
"But she's still living?"
"She used to be completely organic." Fynn continued, grabbing the screwdriver she had before. "I need more tools. But now, she's only mostly organic, and her system if run mostly by nanomachines while she lives as a machine."
Tails still looked groggy from having fainted. He stayed quiet, and only opened his mouth to ask:
"What tools do you need?"
The tension in the room was thick indeed. Fynn gave Tails a verbal list of the tool she needed, so he ran off.
"Please don't just sit around and watch..." Topaz mumbled, sitting down on the end of the couch. "Just go about your business. I don't want... we don't want to give Fynn anymore pressure than she already has."
It was at that moment when Mark, Dia, and Amy all burst into the room. Everybody except for the echinda jumped.
"Is this that place you meant?" Mark asked, setting Amy down.
"Yes, yes, this is it." Amy replied. "How is she?"
Amy ran right over to Odessa, Fynn and the echinda.
'Is she alright?"
Fynn looked up to Amy. "She will, providing she gets the proper treatment."
"Oh..." Amy kneeled down next to Odessa. "Are you a doctor?"
Fynn chuckled. "No... I'm just her mechanic."
"Her mechanic?" Amy asked, but then smiled. "I understand. It does make sense."
"She's about the only one who thinks so..." Somebody mumbled.
Mark and Dia were going to walk around to Topaz, but Sonic caught sight of them.
"AGH!" He cried, jumping up and pointing his finger at Mark. He looked horrified.
Mark replied with an almost exact same reaction.
"IT'S ANOTHER ME!" They both cried.
Fynn rolled her eyes and kept working.
"WHAT THE..." Tails exclaimed, reentering the room. "Two Sonics????"
"One of them is my bitch." Fynn said, not looking up. "Stop freaking, Saphire, and sit down!"
"Yeah, you wish!"
"Saphire?" Sonic asked as Tails brought the tools over to Fynn. "They kept calling me that!"
Mark looked over to Fynn with an 'unamused' type look. "You mistook me for him? Are you really losing your eyesight after all?"
"Shove it, Mark." Fynn replied, looking through the tools to make sure she had all she needed.
Diacuffed Mark upside the head as she walked by. She sat down next to Topaz and gave him a hug.
Mark and Sonic checked each other out, as the only real difference was the highlights Mark had.
"This has been one weird day..." Tails mumbled.
"Is this all of you?" Tyler asked. "I mean, you all show up at random times, and you all know each other. Is anybody else gonna show up?"
Dia, Topaz and Mark all shared a look.
"Well..." Dia began clearing her throat. "There is a seventh... But we have no idea where he is."
"He?" Mina asked. "What's his name?"
Dia hesitated a second, and looked over to Fynn.
She nodded.
"There's no point in hinding anymore."
Dia looked back to the group and continued.
"There is one more. He's a cross breed." She said. "His name is Shaya."
"Shaya?" Jerred asked. "A bit of a feminine name, dontcha think?"
"Talk to his mother about that one." Dia replied.
"Loche named him."
All eyes traveled to the echinda girl. It was her that had spoken.
"Loche, his father, named Shaya." She replied, feeling all the eyes on her. Her's were closed.
"Saf." Fynn mumbled.
"You are the one who said it didn't matter anymore."
Fynn muttered something about her own words being used against her, and kept working.
"What... is your name anyway? Miss?" Tails asked.
She took a moment to reply.
"My name is Safira."
"But wait..." Sonic intervened, leaning over the back of the couch. "Loche is the name of Knuckles's father. He never had any siblings, especially cross breaded ones." He paused. "You must be mistaken."
Safirabreathed out. "He was my mentor for many years before his death."
"His... death?"
Mark tip toed around the people and sat down next to Dia.
"Are we...?" He asked, but stopped.
"Are we what, Mark?" Fynn asked. "Explaining? Not just yet."
"Excuse me." Tyler said, standing up. "I think you DO owe us an explanation. None of this makes any sense. Loche? Rosemary? Adameaus? Nothing adds up, here!" Tyler's voice was rising. "You're... person here broke into my brother's home. Now she's dying. You people keep appearing... nothing makes sense, none of this adds up! Find your seventh guy, bring him here. You are gonna tell us... everything."
Tyler sat back down in a huff, and crossed his arms.
Fynn sighed. She stopped for a moment.
"You're right. We do owe you an explanation." She said. "Mark, Dia, go find Onyx." She looked over to the three. "Drag him here by his ears if you have to. Topaz... maybe... cook something? I think we all coul use something to eat." She looked over to Tyler. "If that's okay with you." She said that with a bit of venom. "I'll try my best to keep my best friend from dying."
After Fynn turned her death stare away from Tyler, he shuddered. He still looked cross. But he felt a bit of shame.
"May it be done." Mark said,standing up with a small bow. "Let's go Diamond."
Mark sped out the door, followed by Dia.
"Er... Tails?" Topaz asked. "Can I look in your fridge?"
Tails nodded. "Of course. Come on."
Tails and Topaz both got up and walked over to the kitchen.
"They look like twins from behind."
"Yeah... They do."
"DAMNIT SONYA!"
A frustrated white hedgehog was about to rip his quills out.
"Where did you teleport us THIS TIME?"
A nervous looking baby-blue cat had her hands on both sides of her head.
"I don't know!!!" She cried. "The 21st century, maybe????!?! I don't know!"
"Can you give me an educated guess?' He asked.
"Come on, Silver, I can guess." She replied sarcastically. "Looking at the surroundings... around the 21st century."
"Well, that last time it was the 18th century." He replied. "Can you get us back yet?"
"Er... no. I can't."
Damn. I forgot to mark when I started this chapter.
Today is Jan. 11. I only started it a few days ago so it's not that bad.
A pretty solid length chapter. Shaya will make his reappearance next chapter. He... is really, weird.

-Silence-

-Silence-
Oh, you guys can all go to hell.
