Well the New Year is approaching and I thought I'd write a new chapter!
Hope you like it!
When I place her down almost immediately she starts to swoon over me, "Oh my hero!" and "My knight in shining armour!" and other heroic compliments on my gallantry and audacity. Eventually she stops her repartee and she thanks me properly, in other words I turn a flamboyant shade of scarlet as she plants a small and humble kiss on my left cheek, going on her tiptoes in order to do so.
Lucky for me she didn't notice as we walked out of the hide-out and into the open…
Simply, for us, to be greeted by a 'great friend'…
If only I should be so lucky!
"If it isn't Moon and his little friend…YOU!" He shouts while pointing his finger at Amy, accusingly. But his words don't bother her as she says back with just as much aggression, "YOU!"
I stand uncomfortably while the pair stares at each other with such heat and intensity of that to match a burning fire of hatred, destroying everything in its path! A flashback of their first encounter enters my mind…
"Did you say something, little girl?" Jack Carver sneers.
"Jack..." Tyson calls his name in a weary yet warning voice.
However the male hyena chooses to ignore his friend's forewarning and moves even closer to the smaller hedgehog...
I turn my head slightly not wanting to witness him hurting her and I try to block out all sound...
I reopen my recently closed eyes, not to see her injured, but instead to see a new passion burning in her eyes.
"I told you to move away from him... Hi Tyson, see you're still picking on the innocent? Aren't you just the best cousin...?" She asks him rhetorically.
I turn to face Tyson, as does everybody else, his face almost as scarlet as his fur.
Jack too has a beetroot face, though not through embarrassment, through anger.
"Shut up, Rose! Why don't you go back to your daddy and let us carry on playing with our 'friend'..."
At the mention of her father, the poor girl momentarily freezes however she gains back her tranquillity and interrupts her cousin, "No! I won't, now leave him alone...Or else!"
Jack's anger has finally hit boiling point, at both Tyson and 'Rose', also possibly me...
"She's your cousin? Okay, whatever this doesn't change anything!" He shakes his head, confused at this bizarre occurrence.
Then he turns to 'Rose', "Or else what, Pinky?"
"...Jack..." Tyson mumbles.
"Don't. Call. Me. PINKY!" She glares at his, flames flickering through her orbs...
Suddenly a large hammer appears out of...Nowhere!
It just appears in her hands...
One second it wasn't there and the next it was!
Just as fast as the hammer's abrupt entrance, Jack is laid on the floor with a hammer lightly pressed on his chest.
"Are you going to leave him," She nods at me, "Alone?"
He hastily nods his head, desperate to get away from this crazed girl... Which I have to thank!
After she releases him from her control he turns on his tail and runs away with the rest of his group following shortly behind.
I look at the cute girl before me, I want to thank her but she's too busy staring at the running figures of her cousin and his leader...
"Your cousin's on something, Tyson!" I hear somebody call out, she too hears this but her ears do not flatten in sadness...
The day I became her friend! The day I made my best friend n such a peculiar way yet I would change it for the whole world!
"What are you doing Tyson? Still hanging around with the jerk! Why?" Amy momentarily breaks the ice settling between her and Jack to address her cousin.
"What am I doing…? What are you doing hanging around with this loser?" He retorts while nodding his head in my direction, indicating that I am the loser.
"That 'loser' is MY FRIEND!" She yells at him, while a dark pink aura surrounds her and her body starts to shake uncontrollably until finally she raises her hand out and a large hammer appears in sight. This one is much larger than the one she had on Halloween and even Tyson and Jack look shocked!
One swing to the left!
One swing to the right!
One terrifying swing downwards, in front of her sending out a strong shockwave that knocks down the gang of bullies.
Jack scrambles to his feet and then pulls up Tyson before turning around and scampering off. Leaving Amy almost exhausted by that powerful move but she also seems happy…
All I can say is, "Wow! I still want to know how that works!"
I guess I just can't help it, I'm fascinated by Amy's hammer and I pretty much just want to know how it works. I mean it just appears out of nowhere!
"Now that would be telling!" Amy mutters before almost falling down to the ground in fatigue. Thankfully I catch her and pick her up in the common bridal way. It really has been an eventful day for her.
So as I start the trek back to her house, I can't help but remember the warmth that filled my cheeks, my face, my body, when she kissed me earlier. I guess I'm starting to fall for the dear sweetheart, if only she knew…If only!
