Well, I'm able to now get in Daily chapters, as seen in the last bunch of chapters, so the story will be updated a lot, Yay for that.
Anyways, just letting everybody know, the end is NOT close yet. I have pulled out more ideas in my head, and slapped them on paper. I haven't even thought about getting a writer's block with this story, so that's wonderful news. Anyways, in this chapter everybody won't find out Amy's dilemma just yet (I changed my original ideas), and also some other things happen. But ya gotta read to find out.
Chapter 9
(Tails pov)
I was waiting outside the room for Sonic and Amy, and kinda was troubled about Sonic. I wasn't exactly sure, since he still liked Amy in a relationship way, how he would react exactly to new like this.
I didn't hear any angriness or anything when he exited her room, so he must have been okay.
"You okay, apart from the news thing?" I asked him.
"I'm alright, it's just a lot of new information to take in. Especially of how cruel it is. Eggman's really sunken to a new low, even for his standards.
"Well you have to figure," I began, "We really didn't hear from him in nearly half an entire year. You have to think that all this time he had to be coming up with something in all this time."
He looked at me in agreement
"I have to agree with you on this one. But I will go confront Eggman, I have to get some information about this," he was getting up ready to leave.
I did spend time thinking about going to Eggman's island again, but I thought about it, and I figured that he would be right there waiting and that he wouldn't give any information anyway which is why I didn't go.
"Sonic, don't!"
He stopped in his tracks, and turned to face Tails.
"What?! Do you not want me to get revenge on him?"
"No I didn't mean that! I wanted to tell you not to go. First, what will he tell you? Nothing is what. He'll give you a phony cure, and then he'll just run away. Revenge isn't gonna help Amy. What I was going to do is analyze the virus in my lab, I'm really sure that he can't make a virus that can override my machines. If I can't find anything, then we can go pay him a visit, make sense?"
Sonic pondered the idea, he wasn't the type to wait on revenge. But he did understand that everything that I was talking about did make more sense, and just going now to confront the doctor, wouldn't get much in the way of anything.
"Fine, we'll do it your way. I'm trusting in you buddy, please I hope you can find a cure."
"I'll do anything I can to, promise."
I liked that about Sonic, he was a friend who could make you give a lot of confidence in yourself.
"Come on, let's get Ames outta her before she starts to complain again."
I laughed at his little joke. We went back in and saw Amy putting on the bed, all ready to leave.
"Can we go now? I really don't like it here."
"Yep, as long as your clear to go."
She was still a little weak, so she walked slower than usual, and instead of going ahead of the two of us, he decided to walk with us, unusual for him. It was easy to tell he was extremely angry with Eggman, and would probably blow up the entire island if I had not said anything. But he was able to keep his temper afloat.
"Um, Amy?"
"Yeah Tails?"
"When exactly are you going to tell anyone about this you know?"
She stopped walking, I knew she had dreaded telling everybody else, especially Rouge and Cream. They would take it really hard, and she hated seeing them cry.
"I'll do it tonight, invite them over to your workshop, and I'll tell them there. And I'll also tell them about us, you know?"
I had to smile somewhat at that, and even Sonic did, despite his serious mood.
"Yeah I know."
"I'm gonna go you guys, I just want to spend some time solo, I'll see you tonight," he said to me, and gave Amy a hug and went off by himself.
Me and Amy walked home together, and then she got tired, so I pretty much walked home for both of us. When we halfway there, she asked and begged me to carry, which I said yes too, I hate myself for being too nice sometimes. She ended up falling asleep in my arms, like a little angel. I was glad that she was my girl now.
After we had arrived at my place, I gently set her down, and let her sleep a few hours. I decided to study a little more about the eggatrozon virus. I took a hair from her head and scanned it using some of my equipment, except it would take about 10 hours for the results to be done, since the virus was so complex. Around 3:30, I decided to wake her up, I even forgot she fell asleep. She had been on the couch for like 6 hours and I remembered that she wanted to tell everyone else the news.
"Amy, Amy."
"Huh? What time is I Tails?"
"Like a quarter to 4. You've been asleep for awhile now."
She bolted up from the couch in an instant right after I had told her that.
"What's the rush?"
"I wanted to tell everybody the news, and I was going to do it earlier, except I fell asleep. Whatever, I'll call everybody to come here, I guess like around 8 clock or something."
"Okay I guess, just make sure that everybody comes."
(Sonic's pov, after leaving the hospital, around 11a.m.)
Great.
I go to talk to Amy, apologize for everything that I have done wrong, and even get on my knees, but no, she decides to go out with Tails.
And now I get news from her herself that she is dying of an unknown virus caused by Eggman, and I'm suppose to just sit here on my ass and not do anything about it, well screw it.
I don't care if Tails thinks that I shouldn't just go and see Eggman yet, but to wait a week or two. Wait? For what!? So that the time we have to find a cure decreases? Well I was done waiting, I'm gonna go pay him a visit.
I headed over to the pier by station square, I'd figure that I could rent a speedboat to get over there in 4 hours, rather than use a submarine to take 10. I told the guy about what I wanted to do, and he let me use it for free, since I did save this pier once for him when eggy attacked several years ago.
Here I come Eggman, watch out.
(4 hours later)
It took much less time to see the island, as I saw a small speck of land before my eyes, and I figured that's where he was to be, so I immediately pressed full speed to the island. It began to get bigger and bigger to my view, and I was right at the shore before I knew it.
I got off the boat and anchored it to the shore, making sure it was immobile, so I had some way of getting home.
The island itself wasn't really big. But then again, most of eggman's lab and workshop were in fact under the island, like in guise. I made my way to the entrance, figuring that he should be in the main control room, that's where I'm used to finding him.
I knew the front door was a trap, so I just busted through on of the walls, and was greeted with an annoying blend of sirens and warnings.
Same ol Eggman
I wasn't here to play games this time.
I started running down one of the main corridors, but was then face to face with a group of mechas.
"Must terminate Sonic!" They said in unison.
"Go ahead, give it your best shot."
The two middle ones charged at me with greater speeds than I remember them at. I ran backwards, barely avoiding the bullets that were aimed at me. Then one fired a homing rocket, but I just ran around, making it blow up both of them. Then all the other 5 charged at me. I spin dashed one, and just kicked the other. But then something different happened with the others. They attached to one, giving the one Mecha the power of three combined.
"Oh, you think your soo smart huh?"
It didn't answer me, but it fired what seemed like a chaos spear, and I just avoided, but then fired another that got my leg.
"Ahhh, dammit!"
"Sonic's pain, good for me."
I lashed out at the robot with kicks and punches, but to no avail as it didn't have any damage or effect at all towards it.
I decided to spin as fats as I could and charge at it, but had to stun it first.
I ran over to Mecha and slid under him, which caused him to trying and catch me, but stumbled over. Then I charged as fat as I could, and lashed at him like a laser, shattering him into pieces.
Finally they were all destroyed, but my leg wasn't in good condition, as I was in a lot of pain trying to run to the control room.
Once I saw it in view I ran full speed, despite the fact that it caused me great pain in my left leg, but I managed to break down the doors.
However, I was too late.
Nothing was in the area, as I was the only thing here. He had left already.
Then as I was going to leave, he face flashed upon the screen.
"Ah, so my guesses are correct. I figured that you were coming here to confront me, so I made up my mind to leave and go elsewhere."
"You better tell me where the cure is, or I will find you, and end you permanently."
"Is that so? Well, you can't get me."
"And why not?"
"First you have no clue where I am, and second, you can't move when you're dead."
"Huh?"
And that's when on the screen, he pressed a green button next to him.
"Sayonara Sonic the Hedgehog."
Another cliffhanger, I love putting those in annoying spots.
I began to thing about the original idea for the chapter, so I decided to abandon it, and change it around a bit, which resulted in this. Hope you liked the chapter, and expect another one soon. Adios!
