A/N
I wanted to get all these chapters out before school started, and I did it one day before school! I still highly recommend that you watch the movie first! I am sure you can find it on youtube or Netflix!
Also, look up this ending song, because I think that it gets a little confusing. A lot of things happen during the singing.
I don't own Sonic or Moulin Rouge.
The play had already started by the time Sonic got there, so it wasn't hard to sneak in. The entire theater was packed, the duke was sitting in the front row.
Tails and the echidna were getting ready for their parts. Both were walking up a set of stairs.
"I just don't get it, I know she loves him." said Tails, "why would she send him away?"
"What if one of them is a duke and the other..." the echidna passed out and fell down the stairs. He landed in front of Sonic. Thinking quickly, he took his costume and wore it, as a disguise.
Sonic continued further backstage and almost ran into Shadow. The duke gave him specific instructions to kill Sonic if he saw him enter. Sonic got by him and entered Sally's dressing room. Sally was already on stage performing, hypnotizing the audience with her beauty.
"What a magnificent performance." Tails said as he approached his place.
A few minutes later, while Zidler was waiting for his part, Shadow came up behind him and turned him around. Tails, who was only a few feet away, heard everything.
"The boy is here." said Shadow
"I told Sally if Sonic came near her, he'd be killed!" replied a shocked Zidler
"He soon will be." said Shadow, now brandishing his gun and leaving.
Tails was now panicking. "That...that's why...she...she's pushing him away to save him. I've got to tell him before it's too late."
But before he could, the scaffold he was standing on rose up into the rafters. He was now almost a hundred feet above the stage.
"Oh my, this is high up." said the now terrified fox.
Sally entered her dressing room and walked up to the mirror to fix her makeup, only to see Sonic in the mirror's reflection. Sally gasped and turned to see him. His quills were wet from the rain, and his eyes were bloodshot. His fur was a darker color than it usually was and there were dark circles around his eyes.
(quick A/N he is not dark Sonic. If I had to give it a name it would be: crazy Sonic.)
"I've come to pay my bill..." he said in a low tone.
"Sonic... you shouldn't be here." she walked out the door. Sonic followed her.
Out on the stage, Zidler was saying his lines.
"Jealousy has driven the guitar player into hiding! But I have found him!"
Sally was trying to get away from Sonic, but he grabbed her by the wrist. He turned her around to see his angry but heartbroken face. The stagehands were trying to get Sonic away from Sally, but to no avail.
"You made me believe that you loved me!" he said aggressively to her. "So why shouldn't I pay you?"
"She has to get on stage!" shouted one of the stagehands.
"Sonic, please." begged Sally. "There's no point, just please go."
Sally broke away and ran from him, but he continued to chase her.
"If it makes you feel better..." Sonic shouted. "you did your job very...very well!"
Sally ran down a long corridor to where she was supposed to be, which was behind the doors of the "palace". But Sonic was still mere feet behind her. People tried to stop Sonic, only to be knocked down by him. Sally looked ahead of her and saw Shadow, gun at the ready, and with a nice big evil smile on his face.
"Why can't I pay you like everyone else does?" Sonic shouted at her.
"No!" she said staring at shadow, "no don't!"
Sonic didn't even notice him, all he saw was Sally. He ran behind her and grabbed her very aggressively, she started to cry and push him off, but he would not go.
"If it wasn't real...then why can't I pay you?"
Shadow cocked the gun and began aiming for his head. "Hold still you littler faker."
On stage, Zidler was signaling the crew to open the doors on the big palace in the background.
"Let the big palace doors be open! Open the doors!"
Sonic was shaking Sally vigorously back and forth. Shadow was just about ready to fire and end Sonic's life.
"Let me pay! Tell me it wasn't real!"
"Sonic, please..."
"TELL ME IT WASN"T REAL!"
"Open the doors!"
"TELL ME YOU DON'T LOVE ME!"
"Sonic!"
"Open the doors!"
"TELL ME YOU DON'T LOVE ME!"
The doors to the "palace" opened and exposed the two to the entire audience, including the duke. Everyone was silent, Sally had tears going down her face. Shadow backed off so no one who would see him, and he tried to find another way to kill him. Zidler was trying to think of something to keep the show going.
"Ah hahaha!" he laughed. "Although he has shaven his beard and adopted a disguise, my eyes don't lie!For it is he, the same penniless guitar player! Driven mad by jealousy"
Tails was still trying to get down, when he noticed Shadow circling around the theater to get a good shot at Sonic.
"Oh no!" he exclaimed. Then, he searched more frantically for a way down.
On the stage, Sonic picked up Sally by the arm and dragged her down to Zidler. He then, dropped her and looked at the duke, then to Zidler.
"This girl is yours now." he announced. He took the money out of his pocket and threw it at her. "I've paid my whore!"
The duke smiled as he saw this. Sonic looked down angrily at Sally, who was still sobbing her eyes out.
"I owe you nothing. And you are nothing to me." He sobbed. "Thank you for curing me of my ridiculous obsession with love!"
Sonic took off down the stage and in front of the duke. He gave him a big death stare, before leaving down the aisle. Zidler helped Sally up to her feet and he comforted her. Sally didn't want to continue anymore.
"It'll be alright." he whispered to her, "the show must go on."
"See this guitar player doesn't love you. See how he flees the kingdom!" Zidler announced to the audience. "And now my bride, it is time for you to raise your voice to the heavens, and say your wedding vows."
Tails tried to remember his lines, "Oh, I've got it!" suddenly the scaffold under him collapsed and he hung on to the rest of the rafters for dear life.
"THE GREATEST THING YOU'LL EVER LEARN IS JUST TO LOVE AND BE LOVED IN RETURN!" he shouted as he let go and flew down to the ground using his tails.
Sonic, who was almost at the door, stopped and turned to see Tails. Everyone else also looked to Tails. Sally saw this as a perfect opportunity to fix this. She broke away from Zidler and faced the crowd.
SA- I never knew...
I could feel like this.
It's like I've never seen
the sky before.
Want to vanish...
inside your kiss.
Everyday I'm loving you...
more and more.
Listen to my heart,
can you hear it sing?
Sonic looked to Sally, was still crying her heart out and slowly began to walked towards her.
SA- Come back to me...
and forgive everything!
Seasons may change
winter to spring...
I love you...
until the end of time.
S- Come what may...
The audience turned to see Sonic walking forwards toward Sally. He was smiling and walked at a brisk pace.
S- Come what may...
Come what may
Come what may!
I will love you...
SA- I will love you!
S-...until my dying day!
The duke sat there in his seat, he was not very happy. He was looking around for Shadow, who was now near the band players. He took out his gun and began to aim at Sonic.
Both- Come what may!
S- Come what may!
SA- Come what may!
Both- I will love you...
until my dying day!
Shadow got ready to pull the trigger, but Tails ran up to him and tackled him. "Sonic! They're trying to kill you!"
The gun flew across the stage and landed in front of Zidler. He did not notice the gun. Shadow pushed the fox off and backed off into the shadows.
Zidler started to improvise the plot. He called the guards to seize them and chaos ensued. People were running around like crazy, Amy decided to hide up in the rafters and notice Shadow trying to get the gun.
Suddenly, the echidna burst through and calmed everyone down. "It's okay. Everyone back to work!"
All the performers turned to the duke and they all got into a line, with Tails, Sonic, Sally and Zidler in the front. The duke was getting really agitated now as he urged Shadow to get the gun.
T- No matter what you say...
All- …the show is ending our way.
VZ- the show must go on!
All- Come on and stand your ground...
For freedom!
Beauty, truth and Love!
You can't fool the children of the revolution!
Shadow was inched away from getting the gun. The duke was on the edge of his seat now.
SA- I'll fly away!
S- My gift is my song!
All- No, you won't fool the children of the revolution!
The children of the revolution.
SA- I'll fly away!
S- My gift is my song!
Shadow had got the gun and was just about to fire. But Amy, who was still in the rafters, took a sand bag and dropped it on his head. The gun flew into the air. The duke got up and began walking out of the building.
SA&S- I will love you...
Yes, I will love you...
Before the duke could leave, the gun landed a few inches behind him. He turned and picked up the gun. He sprinted down the aisle with the gun in his hand, pointing at Sonic.
"My way!" He shouted as he got closer, "My way! My way! MY WAY!"
SA&S- I will love you
until my dying day!
The duke started to pull the trigger, but was met with a punch to the face by Zidler. The gun flew out of his hands and the duke landed and the ground, hard.
The curtain had closed and they were all celebrating, especially Sonic and Sally. Everyone was cheering for them.
"Stand by for curtain call!" announced one of the stagehands.
Sonic kissed Sally on the lips and turned to shake hands with Zidler and Tails. He went to grab Sally's hand but found that she wasn't there. She was on the ground, gasping for air.
"Sally?" he asked as he went to her side. "Sally, what's wrong? What's wrong?"
The only answer he got was more wheezing and gasping from her. This was drawing everyone's attention. Sally started to cough up blood, and some got on Sonic.
"Somebody get some help!" he asked desperately. He knelt down and held her close to him.
"Vanilla!" shouted Zidler. "Get the doctor!"
"I'm sorry, Sonic..." she gasped out. "I...I'm...dying"
She continued to gasp and wheeze, and Sonic was crying his heart out. His heart was breaking again, only this time it felt worse than it did earlier. She started whimpering as she was drowning in her own blood.
"I'm so sorry"
"Shh...don't say that. The doctor's coming." He sobbed. "You're gonna be okay."
"No...no...no I'm not." she was still gasping. "I feel so cold, Sonic."
No one was doing anything, all they could do was watch as one of their friends died. There was not one person there who was not crying. Sonic started to rock her back and forth in his arms.
"You're okay." he sobbed out. "you're gonna be fine, Sally. Please, just stay with me. I...I love you."
Sally smiled at him, she was accepting her fate. "You...you have to go on, Sonic."
"I can't, not without you."
"You've got so much to give...please...tell our story. Tell our story, Sonic. That way...I'll always be with you..." her breathing was getting fainter and fainter as the seconds passed.
"Promise me...that...you...will." she whispered.
"I...I...promise." Sonic whispered back, his voice cracked from the crying.
"I...I love...you...Sonic..."
"Please, Sally..." but it was too late, she was gone.
Sonic sat there with her body, Until finally, he cried as loud as he possibly could. Crying for his first, true love.
Outside, the crowd was still cheering, still not knowing of the tragedy that had just occurred backstage. The duke had left the Moulin Rouge and was walking down the lonely streets of Paris.
Several months later, Sonic sat all alone in his room. All he did, day and night, was type.
Days had turned into weeks, weeks had turned into months. Until, one not so very special day, I went to my typewriter, I sat down, and I wrote our story. A story about a time, a story about a place, a story about the people. But most of all, a story about love, a love that will live forever.
Sonic finished typing on his typewriter, he took the sheet of paper out and put it with a stack of others. Then he put on his hat and coat and left out the door. Tears were still streaming down his face for the loss of his beloved Sally. A love that will never die out
The End.
S- The greatest thing...
you'll ever learn...
is just to love...
and be loved...
in return.
