I've been here for about a month now, which didn't feel like it. Instead, I feel like I've lived here for years; I knew almost everyone's names and faces. I even started to be nicer to Sonic, who was ecstatic about it. Literally, he was bouncing when I asked if he wanted to braid my quills.
Another thing that I've been doing lately is reading and writing; Fleety decided to teach me. Yea, I said Fleety, it's his new nickname. He said that, since we need to be less formal, we should have nicknames.
His is Fleety and mine is love, like normal. I know they aren't cute like couples should be, but I like them. Anyway, I've gotten a lot closer to everyone and I'm really happy to have been bought by such nice people.

"Fleety, where are we going?" I asked as he held my hand, pulling me down the hall. He seemed excited, seeing that he had our fingers intertwined.
"Don't worry, love," He said with a smile, sharp teeth showing. "It's nothing bad, promise." I couldn't help but smile at his happiness, I was still curious though.
"Big brother! Scouggie!" Looking over I saw Sonic running over in a rose colored dress, a large bow of white tied in the back. His quills were braided to the side and he had a huge smile on his face. "Are you ready?!"
"Huh," I looked up at Fleety in confusion. "What does he mean?" The male just smiled at me, hand in hand.
"Well, it though you two could use a ukes day out and go spend some time together," He nuzzled me and stroked my quills. "I'll also be working all day so you two can spend as much time as you want today."
"We're also bringing Silver!" The blueberry chimed in happily, obviously friends with the maid. I gave a soft smile.
"What about you," I asked looking at the workaholic. "you look more stressed than I do. You should be the one resting and going out." He smiled down at me and kissed my forehead causing me to blush.
"Seeing you everyday is my rest," Fleetway smirked at me with half lidded eyes. "Now be safe and go have fun; I'm going to send Knuckles with you as some protection." Hearing that made Sonic's eyes sparkle.

As we headed out to the car Fleetway gave Sonic and I a hug before heading back to his office; once we were outside we saw Knuckles standing by the car.
"Knuckles!" Sonic squealed as he jumped the echidna and proceeded to kiss him, that took me off guard severely. Silver just giggled and smiled, very used to the situation. Apparently the two had something more than a professional relationship, this could be interesting.
"How have you been, babe?" Knuckles asked lifting Sonic in a hug, his feet didn't touch the ground.
"I've been great!" The blue uke chirped in happiness, nuzzling him. "I can't wait to get out of this stuffy house and do something for once!"
"I can imagine," He said kissing his mate's cheek before putting him down. I have to admit; they're quite a cute couple. "Milady, it's nice to see you." I jumped a bit as I realized he was talking to me.
"Same," I said getting in the car; I'm not the biggest fan of small talk when it comes to strangers. "So where are we going anyway?" Sonic got in beside me along with Silver, a big grin on his face.
"We're going shopping to get you some colors and some… casual clothes." My eyes lite up and I smiled, I missed my pants and tee shirts.
"That sounds great," I said as we pulled out of the driveway. "So what brought this on? No more dresses and shit?"
"Master Fleetway wanted you to be more comfortable around your new home. He wants you to be able to live and dress the way you want to. Also, since summer is approaching, he wanted you and Mistress Sonic to be able to relax." Silver said, a bit of sadness in his voice. He looked tired and shy, his long quills a brushed mess. I felt pity for the little guy.
"Oh, come on, Silvy!" Sonic sang as he pulled a bag out from under the seat. "You're just sad because Shadow didn't come along! I mean, he is your mate~" That made the whitey blush.
"M-Mistress!" He stammered with a huge blush on his cheeks; Sonic just laughed hysterically.
"You two are weird," I said with a smile.

"No! More color, Scourge! Black isn't color!" Sonic yelped at me as I came out of the dressing room in a pair of acid washed jeans , a shirt with a band in it and a leather jacket. "Go back in there and change! Silver, find him color, stat!"
"Y-Yes, Mistress!" He said heading back into the clothes section. I rolled my eyes; I thought I was supposed to be the one shopping for myself. Sighing I took off the outfit -which I loved- and was thrown a bunch of other close; I almost drowned in fabric and sequins. After getting dressed in what they gave me I felt like vomiting, so many bright colors.
"It's perfect!" The blue heggie squealed as I stepped out In the most disgusting thing I've ever worn: a pink, sequin top with a purple tutu thing and kitty leggings. "Let's get it!"
"Shot me…." I groaned as I was pushed back in and forced on another outfit that made me look like a glittery, fucking fairy. I hated this, it was so freaking stupid.
"You look so cute! My brother's going to love you in these!" He was bouncing as a came out in yet another sequin nightmare. I could feel my nerves being pulled at and snapping. "Now let's jus-"
"No!" I screamed pushing him away, unaware of what I was doing. "I don't want to dress up like a fucking fairy princess and prance around for your enjoyment! I'm not wearing this shit! I'm not you!"
After that I stormed back into the dressing room and got out of this catastrophe and got back into the outfit I had on before.
I was sick of doing what I didn't want to do; I wanted to do something worth wild. My rebellious streak was getting ahold of me, and I didn't want it to stop. I loved this feeling of invincibility; this feeling of being free. Opening the curtain I felt all that released tension I had come back and hit me like a bitch.
Sonic was sitting on the ground crying with Silver trying to calm him down. Guilt swirled like a hurricane in my stomach; I swallowed roughly.
"I-I didn't…." I didn't know what to say; I've never had to comfort someone before. I went and began to reach for him but I withdrew my hand and stopped myself, holding my hand to my chest. I shouldn't; I would just make things worse. I knew this would happen. I snapped; I hurt him without trying.
I looked around to see people staring and glaring at me, my chest tightened. I couldn't breathe, couldn't think, so I booked it. I sprinted out of the store causing all the alarms to go off like crazy along with some yelling. I didn't care though; I need to get out of here.
Fleetway would be furious with me; he would get rid of me, leave me on my own. I had nothing for myself: no money, food, shelter, people I could trust…. I couldn't focus, couldn't thinking. Everything blurred as I ran faster and faster until I was outside and free. I didn't know what to do except run, so I did.

I don't know where I am, where I was, everything was unfamiliar. I was in an alleyway of some type; I reminded me of Anti, of home. The reality of what I did began to sink on me fast, so fast I fell to the ground because of it. I was lost, probably had cops looking for me and destroyed all of what I build with Fleety and everyone else. I bit my lip as I felt tears start to collect in the corner of my eyes. Everything was falling apart again, and it was all my fault.
"Well hello, my little bitch~" My ears perked and I felt terror rip through my body as I heard that voice, I bolted to my feet. Standing at the entrance to the alley was my father, his emerald eyes flashing dangerously in the light of a street lamp. He stood tall, his arms behind his back, glaring down at me. "It's been awhile since I've seen you, how is my litt-"
"Get away from me!" I screamed with my teeth bared, claws ready. "You got rid of me, now leave me alone!" He just looked at me and….
Laughed
"You're a pathetic fool, my dear son," He stepped closer causing me to step back. His grin grew as he got closer, so close he was almost breathing down my neck. "You think I got rid of you? Haha, oh no, my little bitch, this was all part of the plan." Swiftly he grabbed my neck and lifted me off the ground, suffocating me. He laughed in my face before kneeing me in the stomach and dropping me. I hit the ground hard, trembling in agony.
"Soon I'll get exactly what I planned; I'll get what I deserve. I'll get my revenge."
Then he looked at me and smirked before snapping his fingers and everything went dark.
