Chapter 10

----PPRESENT---

Sonic sat down, meeting Amy's eye line.

"You said you could tell because of my eyes," Sonic said, coming very close to her. "Then look at me, and tell me if you see anything insincere about them…"

Amy bit her lip…her heart skipped a beat.

Each of them just staid there, looking at one another.

She starred into his eyes, with a sad look in hers.

She…she couldn't look away…

He held his hand out for her hers with a smile on his face.

Amy put her hands over her eyes, letting out all her tears. "Oh Sonic! I…I'm so sorry…"

Sonic's eyes lit up, happy she finally believed him.

"It's ok Amy," Sonic stood up. "We need to get to the bottom of this. But first, we need to take care of your injuries,"

"Its fine Sonic, they're artificial, just hurts a lot really," Amy said, still stuck with the teary sound to her voice.

Amy tried to stand up and nearly fell down, but Sonic caught her.

Amy's arm was on Sonic's shoulder as Sonic had his arms around her to help her up.

When he let her go, Sonic took no mind, but Amy was blushing wildly.

"This is the Sonic I remember," Amy thought to herself.

"If it wasn't you, then who could it be?" Amy said.

Sonic stood still, like he was lost in a dream.

"Sonic?" Amy asked.

"I think I have it figured out," said Sonic, in a distant voice.

Amy waited for him to elaborate.

"Before this happened, I found this black chaos emerald, I could swear it was talking to me," said Sonic. "It freaked me out big time there,"

"And you think it's somehow connected to this?" asked Amy.

Sonic stood up, looking out into the distance.

What he saw was a horrible land, ruined completely, fire spreading around in the trees, with broken-down houses.

"I don't know…" was all Sonic could say to this.

Amy's breath started getting shorter and shorter, enough to make Sonic notice.

"Amy? Are you alright?" Sonic asked in a concerned tone.

Amy fell on her face, gasping for breath.

"AMY!" Sonic called out, running to her.

She started coughing.

She turned her head facing Sonic who'd leaned over her to see what was wrong.

"I feel…weird…" Amy said.
