"Amy's partner in the drama will be Infinite."
Thunder looked down at it's owners saddened face. Then turned quickly to see Sonic and Shadow standing with arms crossed. Sonic looked deeply troubled and upset while Shadow glared daggers back at the jackal who was currently smirking at him. Amy bit her lip and also glared at Infinite with her own emerald eyes, "Infinite, what did you-" She was cut off as he threw an arm around her shoulder and pulled her close, causing uncomfortable shivers to go down her spine. She glared up at him as he pulled her to his chest, his douche bag attitude was written all over his face as he smirked down at her. "I look forward to working with you, Amy~" She growled, and then squeaked as a thick book of paper was shoved into her chest, "Here's the new script. We start rehearsing in an hour." Infinite smirked and walked towards Sonic and Shadow. Shadow hmphed and stuck his nose up in the air.
"Of course, having BOOM singers in the show would be great so the director and I thought we would add you in as secondary roles." Sonic sighed and shrugged, taking the new script in his hand and flipping through the papers silently as Shadow scoffed.
"I'm not taking it." Shadow spat.
"Shadow!" Knuckles glared hard at the hedgehog, who gulped in return. Knuckles was still his manager after all. He sighed and gave up, snatching the script from the jackal and walking away to study the lines. Infinite smirked and winked over at Amy, "See you later, Amy." He sauntered off and Amy watched him go with dreading eyes. Vector walked with him and turned, "Shooting starts in an hour!" She turned her eyes down to the papers in her hand, her eyes widening. She flipped through all the pages and frowned.
"This... I thought this was supposed to be about a school drama. But this script is completely different." Amy whispered.
"Say Hello in Chun-nun"
The time is in an early Oriental era. The main female protagonist (Amy Rose) lives in a quiet mountain town with her father. They run a bakery that sells noodles, dumplings, meat buns, mochi, and many other oriental delights. Sometimes she walks into the village selling some of their food to those who don't have time to stop in. She has a big heart and gives a meat bun to a nearby chao that always begs for food (Thunder). There is a nearby boy whose family sells dairy products, he always runs supplies over to the girl to help them with their cooking. They have done this because their families are so close. The boy (Shadow) is in love with the girl. However, a very rich and handsome prince from over the mountain comes to town one day and promises to take the girl away from the dirty boy and the town, where he will marry her in his palace and have her belong to him forever (Infinite).
"What stupid shit is this." Shadow hissed. Knuckles smacked him on his back with a rolled up piece of paper, as he proceeded to scold him for chastising producer Vector's work.
"You have got to be kidding me." Sonic said, "This sounds like beauty and the beast all over again." He smirks and whispers to Streak, "Although I guess Shadow would fit the role of beast just right."
"I heard that!" Shadow snapped towards his blue friend and co worker.
"You should all head to the set." Knuckles said, "You need to hurry and get dressed, since Vector wants to start the scenes in an hour." All three of them muttered under their breaths as they walked together towards the set. Amy couldn't stop looking at the ground, she wanted to cry. Shadow turned to look at her out of the corner of his eye, his hand slipped into hers, and Sonic slipped his into her other. She blushed and looked up at both of them.
"Don't worry about a thing Ames, you'll do great. Try not to be down okay? Let's have fun." Shadow nodded at Sonic's words and she smiled, wiping her tears away with her shoulder. "Thanks guys~"
"Erm... this outfit is... kinda cute?" Amy stepped out of her dressing room. Her quills were in pig tails. She wore a tank top with some mid thight khaki shorts underneath an apron with a meat bun on it. Her shoes were some old style oriental sandals and she wore some white socks under them. She looked up to see Sonic standing by a prop looking well. He was in some normal village attire. Thunder sat at his feet, his fur a little dirty to make him look more like a stray chao. Amy's eyes turned to look for Shadow, who was leaning against a wall watching Sonic and Thunder's interactions. His quills had been pulled up into an old swordsman type of ponytail, and he also had an apron on. Under the apron was a white collared long sleeve shirt whose sleeves had been button up a little down his wrists. He wore some blue jeans as well as some normal dirty boots and had a swore sheathed to his side. Amy flushed and walked over to them, "H-Hey..."
Both hedgehogs turned quickly at her approach. Sonic smiled and gave her a thumbs up, "You pull of anything you wear." She smiled and gave him a thanks and looked at Shadow, who just stared into her eyes with a fire she hadn't seen from him in a while. She messed with her fingers and looked away, feeling self conscious under his gaze. "W-What is it?"
"Nothing." His cheeks turned pink and he turned to look at something else. She smiled a little bit until she saw Infinite approaching them in a fancy prince type get up. He wore a crown and a black and silver suit, a sword on his hip.
"Isn't my damsel so beautiful?" Infinite pulled her hand up and kissed it, causing her to internally vomit. She pulled away quickly and turned her head away, as she looked at Vector, "Are we going to start?"
"Yes, let's start." Vector said in a robot like voice. He stood next to the camera man, "Okay, ready?" Everyone got into position, then he continued, "Rolling!"
Amy's feet made tiny sounds as she softly went around to all the towns people, exchanging food for coins. She gave them all a huge smile as she happily did her job.
"Thank you so much for supporting our business."
"I hope you have a good day!"
"Please, take some food home with you!"
Her feet stopped moving when she noticed a little chao in an alleyway mewing. It walked out slowly and circled her legs, rubbing on them and purring and mewing some more. She smiled down at the chao, "Hello little one. Are you hungry?" She pulls a meat ball out of her basket and hands it to the chao how mews happily. "This ones on me." She goes to pat its head, but it just takes the food and scrams. She frowns, that's how most of her encounters felt recently. She stood up quickly, bumping into a figure and then falling down suddenly. the person fell down onto her, and suddenly they were both wet.
'Eh, this isn't in the script...' Vector whispered to himself.
'he young girls eyes look up to see red. He looked down at her worriedly. "Eimi are you hurt?" He helped her up, the both of them covered in milk from head to toe.
"I'm fine Yami." Amy confusingly looks up at Shadow, what was he doing? This wasn't in the script. "How about you?"
"Just a jab to my ego, no doubt." He smirks, "Mama might give me a good slap for wasting all this milk but as long as you're not hurt, I guess it's worth it." Eimi's cheeks flushed. Yami outstretches his hand to her and she reaches it, when suddenly she is pulled up and away. She looks up to see a prince, glowering down at the red eyed hedgehog.
"Who are you?" Shadow asks standing, "Might I ask you to unhand the lady? Grabbing her like that, it's rude and boarish behavior, is it not?"
"More boaring then spilling the fluids of a cow all over her?" Prince Roba stood up, "Don't you know who I am peasant? I'm Prince Roba." He turns to Eimi, eyes sparkling, "And what is your name miss?"
"E-Eimi..."
"Eimi, what a beautiful name. I've searched far and wide, and only one so elegant as you, are the perfect girl to be my bride."
"B-But I'm covered in milk that's not very elegant."
"Speak no more. Did this man harm you? Shall I take him down a notch for you, my sweet?" He stands abruptly and pulls out his sword, pointing it at Yami. Yami smirks and stands, pulling out his own samurai sword and points it back. Yami eyes the two blades then eyes the Prince. "Bit of an unfair advantage you've put me at."
Shadow was referring to the fact that Infinite's sword was real, and Shadow's was just a mere prop. Amy caught on quickly and clenched onto Infinite's arm.
"Please, don't hurt him! He's my friend!" Eimi frowned and pleaded, "Please, I'll do anything, don't kill him."
Yami turned and looked at her with a look of surprise. The Prince turned and smirked down at Eimi, "Well then, say you'll become my bride, for real, and I'll spare his life."
Amy froze, did he mean for real real? Was this him proposing again? His eyes told her yes and she gulped.
"I'm not r-ready for marriage yet." She sputtered. He smirked again, pulling her into his arms and tilting her head up to look at him.
"Then I suppose just a kiss will do." He leaned forward to kiss her but she panicked and pushed him away. She rushes in front of Yami, covering him. She looks up, "No! I won't kiss you!" Prince Roba sweat dropped and looked around awkwardly.
"W-What do you mean you wont kiss me?"
"You want me to kiss you? Why don't you start by being nice to me, and my friends! And respecting my decisions!" Eimi stood in front of Shadow and put her arms out defensively and glared at the Prince.
"I'm different!" The Prince glares at her, "How am I supposed to be nice to friends, when I've never had any to be nice to!"
The environment changes, as it seemed that Infinite started yelling at her as himself, and not his character.
"When I moved away, I didn't have any friends! I was lonely! I missed having a friend, like you Amy, so I studied magic hard everyday so I could come back to you!" He tightened his grip in his hands, "But then I saw you in a magazine, and I thought it couldn't be true! I didn't want to see you get whisked away into the entertainment industry, that means never getting to see you again."
"I-Infinite..." Amy mumbled. Her arms dropped to her side and she walked forward and hugged him, "I'm sorry you were so alone when you were gone. I didn't know, I had no idea." She stepped back, "But I have new friends now, new friends that probably wouldn't mind being friends with you if you would just be nice to them and give them a chance." Infinite looked like a sad puppy who just got a scolding. "You need to do the right thing now and fix this mess." Amy said.
"Fine." Infinite sighed and snapped his fingers, "Wake up." There was a crash as Vector fell over in his chair, his eyes wide as papers fell around him and on his face. He blinked and then with the help of many people, managed to sit back up again. Shadow huffed, "Figures he'd pull some trick to get his way." Amy shot a glare at Shadow, how shut up instantly.
"What happened? Amy what are you wearing? All of you? What is this script? Was I sleeping?" Vector talked to himself as Knuckles got him caught up on what all had happened. Infinite turned to Amy and took her hand, looking at her seriously.
"I was wrong, Amy, I'm sorry."
"Now he's going to be a nice guy, and this will all be smoothed over, right?" Sonic said coming to stand next to them. Infinite smirked, and pointed at Shadow who was still on the floor, "I will not give up on Amy, don't expect me to hand her over to you."
"W-What nonsense are you talking about. I don't own Amy at all. It's her decision to be with who she wants." Shadow huffed, "Didn't we just go through this?"
"Anyway," Vector approached the group, "Seeing as how that was, it's easy to say Infinite is not one of my choices anymore." The croc glared at the jackacl who laughed sheepishly and then walked to hide behind the others. Vector cleared his throat, "Now, the person I chose to be the original male lead was..."
The word Shadow left his lips quickly and the two leads felt a flutter in their heart and heat rise to their faces.
Yay its the magic of friendship and ponies and blah blah. Hope you enjoyed, sorry for taking so long. I had this written out and then my toddler hit my keyboad and deleted everything so i raged and not even ctrl - z could bring it back.
