Sonette wakes up with sunlight in her eyes and sighs. The days passed slowly, nothing happened. Sonette looks at her left hand. It hurts a little. Sonette sits up and sighs. She looks over to see Shadow. Mephiles was going to be here soon.
"Morning." Shadow greets and Sonette sighs. "Get ready." Shadow tells her and Sonette nods as she got up. She had to get change. She grabs some clean clothes and walks into the bathroom. She walks to then sink and sighs. She got dress and washed her face. She walks out to see Shadow with Mephiles and Amy.
"Ah morning Sonette." Mephiles greets.
"Morning." Sonette whispers, sitting her clothes on the bed. Mephiles walks over and Sonette turns around to face him. Mephiles grabs Sonette's left wrist and pulls it up. Sonette sighs.
"How is your hand?" Mephiles asks.
"It's okay, hurts a little." Sonette replies.
"That is good." Mephiles said as he lets Sonette go. Sonette sighs. "Put some shoes on, we are going." Mephiles tells her. Sonette nods as she put her shoes on. They head out and to the lift.
"Where are we going?" Sonette asks.
"Like I promised you, we are going shopping for new clothes." Mephiles replies.
"Oh, right." Sonette whispers. They got into the lift and head down.
"This is going to be so much fun." Amy said and Shadow sighs. They made it outside to see a car waiting. They got in and head off. They made it to the mall and head in. It was busy. Sonette wraps her arms around Shadow's arm. Shadow looks at her shock, then smiles.
"Don't let go." Shadow said and Sonette nods.
"Um, can you buy me a coffee?" Sonette asks.
"Sure." Shadow said. "Father, Sonette and I would like a coffee." Shadow tells Mephiles who smiles.
"Of course." Mephiles said as they went to the café. They out their order in and wait. Sonette sighs, she still has her arms wrapped around Shadow's arm. She doesn't like crowds much. A part of her think her family is here. Without realising it, Sonette's grip on Shadow's arm tighten.
"Are you okay?" Shadow asks. Sonette looks at him, then nods.
"Yeah, sorry." Sonette said.
"It's okay." Shadow said and Sonette smiles. They got their drinks and head off. They slowly went around, getting clothes for Sonette. Sonette was a little worried about money, but Mephiles told her it was fine. Sonette stop at the jewellers, looking through the window. There was a lot to look at. Then one caught her eye, it was an Olive Leaf Pendant with an amethyst middle. It was beautiful.
'Wow, but 800 dollars, that is a lot of money.' Sonette thought and it was also on special.
"Which one do you like?" she heard Shadow asks. Sonette looks back to see Shadow right behind her. Sonette sighs.
"This one." Sonette replies, pointing the necklace out.
"That is cool." Shadow said. "Amy wants to take you in the bra shop." Shadow tells her.
"Okay." Sonette said walking off. Amy grabs her arm and they went into the shop. She saw Mephiles close behind and quickly looks away.
"Get as many as you want." Mephiles tells them, standing by the counter. Amy grabs Sonette and they started looking around. Amy then smiles.
"What?" Sonette asks.
"Come on." Amy said. After being talked into to buy sets Sonette didn't really like, they got everything and Mephiles payed for them.
"So you're here just to pay for everything." the lady behind the counter said.
"I promised them I would buy them new clothes. What kind of man or father would I bed if I back out of it." Mephiles explains and the lady giggles.
"Well have a good day." the lady said and the trio walks out. Then Shadow walks over.
"We are almost done, then we can get lunch." Mephiles said, walking off with Amy. Shadow walks behind Sonette, wrapping his arm over her shoulder. Sonette blush, then saw a box.
"Take it." Shadow said. Sonette nods as she takes it, then opens and goes into shock as she turns bright red. It was the necklace she was looking at. He brought it for her.
"Th-thank you." Sonette said and Shadow chuckles.
"Come on." Shadow said and the pair heads off. Sonette wraps her arms around Shadow's arm. Amy looks at the pair and giggles. Mephiles looks back.
"Are you two hungry?" Mephiles asks.
"I am." Sonette replies.
"It's about time we have lunch." Shadow said.
"Come on." Mephiles said. They made it to the food court and found a spot to sit.
"What do you want?" Shadow asks.
"Um, McDonalds. I want some cheese burgers and chips, plus a large drink, cola." Sonette replies.
"Got it, stay here." Shadow tells her and walks off. Amy then runs off and Mephiles looks at her.
"Can I trust you to be alone?" Mephiles asks.
"Yes sir, I'll just sit here." Sonette said. Mephiles moves the trolley next to her. Sonette smiles.
"Good girl." Mephiles said walking off. Sonette grabs a book she got. She was so happy. Mephiles has been so kind to her. Sure, he could be using her to get to her family, but she doesn't care. Sonette then felt eyes on her so she looks over to see Miles 'Tails' Prower. Sonette quickly looks away. What is he doing here? Sonette sighs as she rest her head on the table. She was hungry.
'I hate rush hour, it takes forever to get our meals.' Sonette thought. Sonette looks at Tails who was on the phone. He looked like a charming man. He has grown up so much. Sonette smiles, closing her eyes, remembering what Tails once said to her.
A 13 year old Sonette is sitting in her room on her bed. She was in pain from training. She still isn't strong enough. She then heard a knock on her door. She looks over as a five year old Tails walks in. Sonette smiles.
"I heard you were hurt." Tails said, closing the door and walks over.
"I'm fine Tails. Thank you for coming to check on me." Sonette said. Tails climbs up and Sonette smiles.
"I came because I care." Tails said as he sits on her lap. Sonette leans back and Tails sighs.
"I'm just not strong enough." Sonette whispers.
"I see." Tails whispers, then smiles as he looks at Sonette. "Then I'll get stronger so I can protect you." Tails tells her and Sonette looks at him shock, then smiles.
"Tails." Sonette whispers and Tails rest his head on her chest. "Thank you." Sonette whispers. Then a 13 year old Sonic walks in.
"Tails, come on." Sonic said.
"Okay." Tails said as he got up and runs out. Sonette lies down as Sonic walks out, closing the door.
'He is going to be a great man.' Sonette thought.
Sonette jumps to something hitting the table. She saw it was Mephiles with his lunch. Sonette sighs, looking around. Tails was gone.
"What is it?" Mephiles asks.
"Nothing, I didn't mean to zone out." Sonette whispers as Amy walks back and sits down.
"It's okay." Mephiles said as Shadow walks over with a large bag and two drinks. Shadow sits down, sitting Sonette's drink in front of her and sits is down. He then grabs his burger and chips, then hands the bag to Sonette. Sonette looks in and smiles. She has five burgers and three large chips.
"Hope you are hungry." Shadow said.
"Oh I am." Sonette said as she started eating.
"Sonette, who was that fox you were staring at?" Amy asks and Sonette looks at her shock, then sighs.
"A member of my family's organisation, Miles Prower, though he goes by his nickname, Tails." Sonette replies.
"Means they know you are here." Mephiles said.
"Yeah." Sonette whispers.
"Do we leave?" Shadow asks and Mephiles chuckles.
"No, let them know. After all, on the hotel floor, besides you three, I am there, Fiona, Scourge, Rouge, Jet, Wave, Julia and Yulia. Plus Storm, Lucy, Roxy and Athena are on their way. If they can get her through all of us, they can have her." Mephiles explains and Sonette sighs. She should act like she doesn't want to be here. If her family finds out other wise, she will be killed for sure. After lunch, they head off. They made it to the car and pack everything in. They then got in and head off.
"Candace said she will wash all your clothes so I will drop you at the hotel and get that done." Mephiles explains. "You Sonette, need to act like we are keeping you by force. I know you really like it here with us. Your family can't know that." Mephiles tells her.
"I know sir." Sonette whispers. A part of her doesn't want to be here. She wants to be with Teagan and the others back home, her real home. Her blood family suck anyway. She then thought of Tails.
"What is it?" Amy asks.
"It's just Tails, it is so hard believe that he is the same fox cub that sat on my lap and told me he was going to get stronger to protect me. He is such a charming young man." Sonette admits.
"That was cute of him." Amy said and Sonette smiles.
"Yeah, I always go beaten up and he came and made sure I was okay." Sonette explains. "I saw him as a little brother." Sonette adds. They came to the hotel, Sonette, Shadow and Amy got out and Mephiles drove off. The trio heads inside. Sonette then looks back as a pink motorcycle pull up. 'Sonia.' Sonette thought as she face forwards and got into the lift.
"Who was it?" Shadow asks.
"I think it was Sonia, my sister." Sonette replies.
"This is bad." Amy whispers. They made it to their floor to see Fiona, Scourge, Rouge, Jet, Wave, Julia and Yulia all waiting.
"In." Shadow said, walking into his and Sonette's room with Sonette. Sonette runs to the window, pulling the curtains close.
"What is it?" Rouge asks.
"They are here." Shadow said and Fiona, Scourge, Rouge, Jet, Wave, Julia and Yulia looks at him shock.
"They are here to take Sonette away from us." Yulia said and Sonette sighs.
"Why close the curtain?" Wave asks.
"Sonia is here." Amy said.
"Sonia's favourite weapon is the sniper rifle. She is the best in the field. This might even be enough." Sonette explains.
"Not good." Scourge said.
"That sister of yours is a pain in the ass." Rouge said.
"I know." Sonette whispers as she turns around.
"Sonette." Julia whispers.
"I'm scared." Sonette admits with tears in her eyes. Yulia runs over and gives her a hug. "I know I have to act like you are holding me here by force, but I can't go home." Sonette explains.
"We know and they won't get you." Rouge tells her and Sonette smiles. "I'll call up Mia and Cira, I know Storm, Lucy, Roxy and Athena are on their way, but I would like it better if they were here too." Rouge said. "We have two rooms spear anyway. We almost got the floor. Three rooms have people in it, though they are leaving soon so we have the booking after them." Rouge explains.
"Call them." Shadow tells her. Rouge walks out and Sonette looks at Yulia.
"Don't worry Sonette, we are here." Yulia said.
"We will leave you two to talk. Come on Yulia." Wave said. Everyone walked out, leaving Shadow and Sonette alone. Shadow sighs, walking up to Sonette who looks at him.
"This isn't going to end well, you know that right?" Sonette said.
"I do." Shadow said. Sonette felt tears in her eyes and Shadow sighs, pulling Sonette into a hug.
"Shadow." Sonette cries. Shadow sighs, this was going to be hard on her.
"I know." Shadow said and Sonette breaks down in tears. She was so scared.
