A Western Movie Chapter 9, a sonic the hedgehog fanfic

Chapter 9…

Back with rehearsals and the plot! Oh, and I promised something that didn't happen, so I apologize.

Anyway, in this chapter, Cosmo, Shade and Tikal will appear. Enjoy!

The next morning, everyone was already in the set eating breakfast. Denise showed up and said:

"Morning, guys. Since this is our third day of shooting, I just want you to know that today we will have three more actors for this movie. Now, give the warmest of welcomes to Shade the Echidna, Tikal the Echidna and Cosmo. Ok, you three, you will get about an hour to get dressed and enjoy what the cast has to offer you. Have a good day!"

Tikal and Shade approached Knuckles and said: "Hi Knuckles."

Knuckles looked at his two echidna friends and said: "Tikal? How did you get out from the Master Emerald?"

"I used my powers against it."

"And Shade, I haven't seen you in a while." Knuckles said

"It's nice to see you too." Shade said

Rouge stepped forward and said: "Back off you two. He's with me."

"I'm related to him." Tikal said

"We're just friends." Shade said

"Oh boy…"

Blaze saw Shadow and she greeted him: "Morning, Shadow."

He just kept walking and she got a little pissed. She hid her emotion and said: "So, the meal last night was quite good. And I had a good time."

Shadow gave her a quick stare and kept walking. Blaze shook her head and still followed him. Then, she started:

"Shadow, if something is wrong, just say it. Just admit that maybe you didn't have fun last night and that you never may want to speak to me ever again. I really don't like the silent treatment you are giving me right now. "

Shadow stopped at his tracks and turned to face her. Blaze was about to turn his back, but he said: "…I'm not mad at you."

Blaze slowly turned to face him and she asked: "Well, if you're not mad at me, why did you ignore me earlier this morning?"

"It wasn't on purpose…" Shadow muttered

"Forget it Shadow. If you don't want to explain –" Blaze was cut off by Shadow, who said:

"I was walking around and pretended not to hear a sound."

"Ah, so you're pissed at Sonic. Ok, I get it. But why didn't you –"

"We were walking the whole way here and when you greeted me, the blue faker started to bug me, that's why I didn't greet back."

"Well, if you were pissed at Sonic, you shouldn't have made me upset."

"Did I?" Shadow smirked. Blaze gave him a cold stare as she answered:

"Yes. And I really hate it when I get ignored." Blaze answered

"Maybe I should ignore you more often, Your Highness."

"Well, I never."

Denise saw them and started to giggle.

"What are you looking at?" Blaze asked

"The way you guys are acting around each other. I love it!"

Blaze blushed a little but said: "Oh, go jump in a ditch."

"How dare you? I am leaving."

Denise left to the set with Shadow and Blaze following her.

(Blaze's POV): "Just so we're clear, I am not a drama queen or have a crush on anyone on this set whatsoever. I just talk to the cast members equally fair, except the birds and Mephiles."

(Shadow's POV): "If I see Faker running around these parts today, he is so dead."

(Denise's POV): "Well, I think the little set-up I did last night with Sonic, although he RUINED IT, turned out fine, since I see Shadow and Blaze a little closer than before."

(Sonic's POV): "I better watch out today, since Shadow, Blaze and Denise are pissed at me. I didn't do anything wrong. Denise and I just set up a dinner for them, we get them closer and no thanks in return? Man, what more do they want from me?"

Tails was setting up the lights for the scene with Omega and Cosmo appeared.

"Hi Tails." She greeted

Tails and Omega turned around and saw Cosmo dressed in a green western dress and had her pink flowers. Tails blushed and said: "Hi, Cosmo. You look great."

"Thanks. But I think that's –" Tails was cut off by Marine who asked:

"How do I look mates?"

She had a green shirt, blue jeans, black boots, black gloves and a brown hat with a black handkerchief.

"Great." Tails answered

"Aw, thanks, mate. Oh, and who is your little friend here?" Marine answered

"Oh. Marine, this is Cosmo. Cosmo, this is my friend Marine and the robot standing next to me is Omega." Tails said

"Oh, nice to meet to meet you." Cosmo said as she and Marine shook hands.

(Over P.A.): "Attention cast members. Report to the saloon set right now. We're about to shoot another scene. That is all."

Tails, Omega, Cosmo and Marine headed to the set.

At the saloon set…

"Ok, now that we're all here, I am here to tell the role of our newest cast members in this movie. Ok, which one of our newest cast members can cook well at best?"

Cosmo raised her hand, but put it back down quickly.

"Ok, Cosmo. You'll be our cook. Tikal, Shade, you are the waiters, but Shade also owns the gun store and Knuckles, since you pretty much own the saloon, you have to welcome everyone and make reservations. And before we shoot the scene, I have assigned you all to tables inside."

Everyone just listened to the assigned seats.

"Table one is for the Babylon Rogues and Mephiles. You may seat there, but remember to act like nobody knows you're there. And I made sure it looks like it's dark for special effect."

(Jet's POV): "Heh. This girl didn't waste time into making this movie."

Jet and the ones mentioned took their assigned seats.

"Table number 2 goes to the Chaotix and Rouge. You guys are looking suspiciously at the ones sitting in table number one."

The Chaotix and Rouge sat down at table number two.

"Table number three goes to Amy, Sally, Marine and Big."

The four took their seats.

(Marine's POV): "Oh, I have to take a seat next to a big guy. I just hope I don't get squished."

"And the last table goes to Sonic, Bunnie, Tails and Cream."

The four took their assigned seats.

"Oh, and Silver, you have to help the waitresses."

(Silver's POV): "I think I just hit rock bottom in this film."

"And Shadow and Blaze have to take their seats where Sonic, Bunnie, Cream and Tails are. Ok, places everyone."

Everyone took their places.

"Ok, LIGHTS! (Omega set the lights), CAMERA! (Omega prepares the camera) and… (Pulls out megaphone) ACTION!"

(Rehearsal)

Shadow and Blaze were walking around the neighborhood and they found Rouge's House. Blaze told Shadow to stay outside while she just left her stuff in her living room. Shadow just nodded and allowed Blaze to take her time.

When Blaze was done, she locked the front door and she arrived to the saloon with Shadow. Then, she suddenly stopped her tracks and turned her back.

"Shadow, I really can't do this." Blaze said. Shadow sighed and said:

"Blaze, we'll just grab a bite and get out."

"Promise?

"…Promise."

When they both headed inside, they saw that everyone who was inside stare at them. Blaze tried to walk out, since she wasn't used to the outlaw/hero thing, but felt a hand in her shoulder that made her stop her tracks.

Knuckles walked up to them and greeted: "Hey, you're that new guy. Shadow, right?"

Shadow nodded and said: "Table for two."

"Sonic's table has two seats and he wanted you to join at his table. You don't mind joining him?"

"Not at all. Lead us to their table."

"Alright. Follow me."

Blaze once again tried to get out but Shadow said: "Like I said, we'll just grab a bite and get out."

Blaze hesitated to follow Knuckles, but Shadow started leading her to the table instead. Blaze started to look quickly at other tables, and then looked away. When Knuckles stopped, Shadow and Blaze saw Sonic and Sonic greeted: "Hey! It's Shadow and Blaze. How's it going, you two?"

"I want to go home." Blaze said and started to stand up, but Shadow gripped her arm and said: "Don't walk out on us."

"He's right Blaze. It's time to come out of hiding and face the town!" Sonic exclaimed.

"Yeah, I guess you two are right." Blaze said a little confidently. Cream was coming back to the table, but saw Blaze. She said: "Um, hi, miss Blaze."

Blaze looked at the young rabbit in front of her. The rabbit continued:

"I'm Cream. Nice to meet you." Cream extended her hand. Blaze did the same and both girl shook hands. Then, Cream took out a little napkin and a pen and asked:

"May I have your autograph, Miss Blaze?" Blaze nodded and she took the napkin and the and started to write down:

To: Cream

Take care of yourself and be strong.

Your new friend, Blaze.

After Cream read the note, she hugged Blaze and said: "Thanks."

.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Jet, Wave, Storm and Mephiles were sitting in a table apart from the other tables. In the table they were sitting, they saw Blaze and her friends surrounding her. Wave started:

"Blech. Look over there." Everyone looked at their target and Jet said:

"Hey, it's that girl."

"Shall we strike, Sheriff Mephiles?" Wave asked

"Not yet. Let us wait until the sun sets. But I have a plan…" Mephiles said and drank a bit of root beer

"Hey Blaze!" Marine said as she headed to the table she was sitting.

"What is it, Marine?" Blaze asked, but Marine gripped her wrist and she answered: "Let's head onto the stage."

Blaze was led up a few stair steps and Marine said: "Good afternoon, folks. I would like you all to know Blaze. I know you all have just seen her, but I know her. She is a great friend and she is my role model. Now, I will let Blaze do her honors and talk with the rest of you."

Everyone clapped and Blaze glared at Marine. Marine just smiled and got off the stage and sat down.

"Um, hi. Please excuse my friend. I'm just gonna –" Blaze was cut off when Sonic said: "Blaze, you rock!"

The others stared at him oddly and Blaze continued:

"Um, I would also say thank you. For the support my fans have given me, but I am not always going to be there for –" Blaze was cut off again, but this time by Silver, who said:

"Blaze, you have always protected us, and we should be thanking you. I would like to thank you for being the best friend/sister I've never had."

"Um, you're welcome. Uh, please enjoy the food." Blaze got off the stage and left the restaurant. Sonic and Silver just looked at her leave and Sonic said:

"C'mon, Shadow, let's find Blaze."

Shadow nodded and the two hedgehogs left the restaurant to look for Blaze.

"So, she has a soft side…" Jet said grinning evilly.

"We'll kidnap her tonight." Sheriff Mephiles said as he and the Babylon Rogues left the restaurant.

"CUT! Snack time, everyone!"

Backstage…

"Hey Shadow!" Sonic said

Shadow ignored him and kept walking.

"C'mon Shadow, you can't just ignore me forever. I know what Denise and I did last night was wrong. You can't just stay angry by that for the rest of your life." Sonic said

"…If you're so sorry like you said, why were you spying on the whole fake date?" Shadow asked

"Because, you never admit your feelings towards anyone and you would've left Blaze wondering for a long time, considering you talk but you never express your feelings." Sonic said

"Listen faker. If I were in… you know what I mean, I would've wondered about it and then I let said person know how I feel whether they ask me or not." Shadow said

"Oh, so you DO like Blaze. This is so going to be spread around the whole set." Sonic said and started to run

(Shadow's POV): "I am SO killing that Faker…"

(Sonic's POV): "Well, I guess Shadow isn't very emotionless as he is. I need to tell Denise about this…"

Sonic saw Blaze eating a donut and she asked: "What do you want?"

"I just want to say that I'm sorry for setting you and Shadow on a fake date." Sonic answered

"Well…I did kinda – Argh! I still think that –" Blaze was cut off by Sonic, who asked: "You kinda what?"

"Just forget it Sonic. And don't do that again or I will personally make you suffer." Blaze threatened

Sonic saw that Blaze was forming fire around her body and clenching a fist, so he just left her. After that, Blaze calmed down and when she turned to apologize to Sonic, she saw Mephiles in front of her. She quickly stood in a fighting stance and asked: "What do YOU want?"

"My, aren't we feisty. It seems that you are troubled." Mephiles said

"Pft. Why do you care?" Blaze asked

"No reason. I just need you to be troubled…" Mephiles said as he took a step forward. Blaze's eyes widened and she took a step back. Mephiles chuckled evilly and said: "Be afraid princess. Be very afraid." Mephiles left in an oozy form.

(Blaze's POV): "Just what is wrong with that psycho maniac? He really gives me the creeps, but I can act it perfectly. Unless… (Looks at the script) Oh my God…"

(Mephiles' POV): (Laughs evilly) "I just did what I did because of the next scene…"

(Over P.A.): "Break's over guys. Head to the desert set."

The Desert Set…

"Ok, in this scene, Blaze is in the desert, and Shadow finds Blaze in here. Sonic, you only appear shortly. As for the rest of you that don't appear in this scene, I need you guys to help me edit the rest of this film. Omega, you take them to the editing room and Tails, you stay here with me and tape the whole thing. Places, you guys."

The ones that knew who had nothing to do with the scene followed Omega and the others took their places.

"Ok. And… (Pulls out megaphone) ACTION!"

(Rehearsal)

Sonic and Shadow looked over the whole town and headed to the desert.

"Huh. I thought she might be here." Sonic said "Shadow, can you look in here while I look for Blaze someplace else?"

Shadow nodded and Sonic said: "Thanks. I'll meet you back at my house later."

Sonic left and headed back to the town. Shadow walked around the desert to look for Blaze. Then, he heard soft sobbing and decided to follow his instincts.

He saw Blaze hugging her feet to her chest and her face buried. He said: "Blaze?" She quickly wiped away her tears and looked up. Shadow just sat down on the floor next to her and asked: "Something wrong?"

Blaze just shook her head and stared at the sky. Shadow sighed and said: "…I know something is wrong with you…" Blaze just looked at him. She couldn't stand it when people were so kind with her even when they know what she truly is. She just stood up and said:

"Shadow, you know what I am already. You know what people see in me."

By that point, Blaze started to form tears in her eyes, but continued: "…You know what Marine, Sonic and Silver said. I'd hate to be the figure of disappointment, but I'm not going to be here forever. The sheriff wants me dead unless I join him. I don't want to join his little crime partners and I don't want to face death. I just…I just don't know what to do anymore."

By that time Blaze was crying and she placed her hand on the rock, disappointed and hurt. She tried to walk away, but Shadow stood up and placed his right hand on her left shoulder. She stopped crying and saw him.

"Why are you giving up now? You made it this far, but that doesn't mean you don't have a chance. You had the guts to fight back when I met you, and now you just give up? Where is the Blaze everyone in town knows?" Shadow asked

Blaze soon realized what he meant and closed her eyes for a few seconds and then opened them again. She inhaled deeply and said: "Thanks. But if I want to save this town, I have to train you, don't I?" She smirked and threw a rope at him.

"You still had the ropes?" Shadow asked

"Hey better be ready for something." Blaze shrugged and then smiled.

Shadow and Blaze kept training until sunset.

After the whole training session, Shadow realized he forgot to warn Sonic about finding Blaze. Blaze smiled and said: "Thanks for being here, Shadow."

Shadow just nodded in response. Blaze and Shadow started to walk and Blaze said: "I have to go back to the house."

"Want me to walk you?" Shadow asked

"I can't let you do that." Blaze smirked

"…Right." Shadow smirked back

Blaze just smiled warmly and said: "I'll see you tomorrow."

Blaze and Shadow went their separate ways…

"CUT! Awesome scene, you two. Anyway, it's lunch time. See you in an hour."

Denise left to get some lunch and Shadow and Blaze walked to the cafeteria…

At The Cafeteria…

Table one: Sonic, Amy, Tails, Marine, Cream and Cosmo

Table two: Knuckles, Rouge, Shadow, Silver, and Blaze

Table three: Sally, Bunnie, Espio, Vector and Charmy

Table four: Babylon Rogues and Mephiles

Table five: Big, Tikal, Shade and Omega

(Marine's POV): "I didn't want to get in trouble like the other day, so today, I'm sitting next to Tails and Sonic. Sure, I'd also prefer that Blaze would sit with me, but the bloke next to her would've kicked me out of the table. I mean, I am SO mature, mate so I say take that!"

(Sonic's POV): "This has been pretty cool so far, but ever since Marine's been here, everything has been a little…noisy. I wonder if she's related to Amy."

(Amy's POV): (Pulls out hammer) "Urgh! How can Sonic say that? If you ask me, I should pummel him. RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW!"

(Cosmo's POV): "Everyone has been so nice to me so far, except the antagonists of this movie. I don't even know them and I think they hate me."

(Shade's POV): "This movie set is pretty detailed to a western theme. I just want to use the guns and shoot at someone."

(Tikal's POV): "I really hope this movie has a happy ending, because I've heard that western movies use guns and I really don't want to end up hurt."

"Hey guys, check this out!" Sonic said as he held the script.

Everyone in his table were looking at the script he was holding and Marine asked: "An abducting scene? That sounds Sci-Fi if you ask me."

"No Marine." Tails answered "An abducting scene is the best part in a Western Movie."

"Oh." Marine replied "I'll be backstage if you or anyone needs me."

Tails started to talk to Cosmo and Cream whispered to Amy. "Amy, can I talk to you backstage?" Amy nodded and left backstage with Cream.

Then Sally and Bunnie showed up at the table and sat where Amy and Cream sat previously and Sally asked: "Hey Sonic. I'm throwing a party this weekend and I was wondering if you'd like to come."

"Sure Sally, but I want to know something." Sonic responded as he got up

"Ok. Then you may ask me." Sally said also getting up and walking outside the hallway with Sonic

"Sally, I really like you and I just want to know that if you…like me back." Sonic said while putting his right hand behind his head

"Sonic, I do like you back, but you know that it won't work out. I'm sorry." Sally said a little disappointed

"Oh. Okay, I understand." Sonic said also disappointed

"But, we'll always be friends." Sally implied

"Thanks, Sal. Anyway, where's the party?" Sonic asked

"In the Community Activities Center. Denise and I made the arrangements for Saturday and we will announce it by the end of the day." Sally said

"Ok, I'll be there." Sonic said as he and Sally went to their respective tables…

Backstage…

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Amy asked

"Amy, Tails has been ignoring me. I'm glad Cosmo is back, but ever since she's been here, Tails just hasn't talked back. I even joined them backstage and I was right next to him and yet he didn't notice me when I tapped his shoulder." Cream said disappointed and putting her hands on her face.

Tails and Cosmo passed by and Tails asked: "Hey, Amy, hey…Cream? What's wrong?"

Cream quickly took her hands out of her face and wiped the tears. She answered: "Nothing."

"Cream, would you like to go to the ice cream shop after we get off?" Cosmo asked

"Oh, of course." Cream answered

"Later Cream!" Tails and Cosmo said at the same time.

"So, I take it everything's fine then?" Amy asked

"Mm-hmm." Cream replied

"Ok, I'll see you later." Amy said as she left back to the cafeteria.

(Over P.A.): "Ok, guys. Lunchtime is now over. You may proceed to the set for your next rehearsal!"

Everyone did as told and headed to the main set…

(Evil Laugh) I will leave you wondering for a while, since I am very busy.

Sorry for the evil laugh, but seriously I will.

Anyway, R&R!
