Do you like the new front cover? GummyGal created it and I think she did an awesome job. Anyway, a lot of people have been sending me random questions lately and have been worried about how I'll react to your questions and requests…don't be worried. I'm friendly so feel free to ask me anything anytime you like, whether they're about my stories or not :)

Thanks for the reviews and I own nothing.

9: Weakening Control

Sonic finally managed to register what had just happened and then immediately began running after Amy. He couldn't believe what she had done. When he got his hands on Luke, he was going to kill him. Now he saw why he needed control of Amy. To steal the chaos emeralds from them and probably give them to Eggman.

His suspicions were confirmed as he skidded to a halt to where Luke and Amy were standing opposite Eggman.

"I had a feeling you were involved in this somehow Egghead!" Sonic snapped as he leaned cockily against a tree.

Eggman laughed evilly. "Too late Sonic, now give me the emeralds Amy."

"I don't understand." Amy gasped. "Luke, you said that you needed them."

Luke glared at Sonic before turning back to Amy. "I needed to give them to Eggman to help us get away, Amy. Me and you, like it's always been and like it always should be."

Tails finally caught up and landed next to Sonic who looked at the scene with shocked eyes.

"Don't listen to them Amy!" Sonic begged. "He wants to use them for evil and Luke is working for him!"

"Luke would never do something like that!" Amy shrieked and Luke smirked at Sonic who could feel himself losing his patients.

"Wake up Amy! I know the real Amy is in there and she would never be controlled by some stupid love potion!" Sonic snapped and Amy looked shaken for a few seconds before glaring back and summoning her hammer.

"You want those chaos emeralds then you're going to have to fight me for them." Amy chuckled and Sonic's eyes widened.

"Easy Amy, I don't want to fight you." Sonic begged as he took a step back.

"Just take the emeralds and let us go!" Luke begged Eggman who was watching everything with an amused expression on his face.

"And miss the two love birds fighting each other? Not a chance, I just wish I'd brought a camera with me." Eggman laughed.

Sonic looked up to glare at Eggman, but was caught off guard as something heavy and hard made contact with his stomach and sent him flying backwards into a tree.

Sonic gasped out for air as it was knocked out of him and he clutched onto his stomach that felt like it had been flattened.

"Amy!" Sonic managed to squeak out as he tried to stand up.

"Just leave us alone!" Amy yelled as she stalked towards him again.

"Amy please, we don't want any trouble." Tails tried to reason with her but flinched as Amy glared at him angrily.

"You're on our team Amy. You're a force for good and Luke is just using you." Sonic managed to gasp out as he clutched his aching body.

"Using her?!" Luke shrieked. "I'm not the one who's been stringing her along all these years. She was mine and she always will be. I've always been in love with her and then you had to come along and wreck it!"

Sonic narrowed his eyes at him. "That's what this is all about? You can't get Amy to actually fall in love with you so you drugged her?!" Sonic shrieked. "What kind of sick person does that?"

"She'll learn to love me on her own once you're out of the way." Luke spat.

Eggman laughed again. "Well I am a romantic at heart, so let's add a final tragic twist. Amy can destroy her one true love with her own hands."

"For all the pain you have caused me," Amy growled as she approached Sonic with her hammer held tightly in her hands, ready for attack, "It would be my pleasure to dispose of you."

"Look Amy, for everything I've done and said over the years, I'm sorry. I never mean any of it." Sonic cried out.

"You liar! Luke has told me everything, how could I ever love you anyway?" She sneered as she swung her hammer which Sonic easily dodged.

"Amy, I truly am sorry and I'll never take you for granted again, just please come back to me!" Sonic begged as he tried to blink back a tear.

Amy's hard glare seemed to fall for a second. "S-sonic…no, Luke and I will start a new and better life."

Sonic stared at her in confusion as she appeared to have a split personality. He quickly ran out of the way of another one of her wings and gulped as she completely destroyed the tree he was standing in front of a few seconds ago. She looked up and glared at him before it faulted again and then returned.

"She's snapping out of it." Sonic gasped and Tails smiled.

"The potion must be wearing off, but maybe we can help. You need to keep her talking Sonic and get the emeralds off her." Tails smiled.

"No!" Luke yelled and Tails quickly shot a net out of his watch that immediately captured Luke. "Doctor, help me!"

"Fine fine," Eggman groaned as he began shooting lasers at Tails which he easily avoided every time.

Sonic took full advantage of Tails' distraction and tired talking to Amy.

"This isn't the first time you've chased me with your hammer." Sonic chuckled nervously as he kept ducking out of the way. Amy continued to glare at him and chase him around the area.

"Remember when we were going to go on that date and I never showed up because I got sucked into the King Arthur story? You didn't believe me and chased me for hours. You're pretty relentless and I've always liked that about you."

Amy's eyes widened for a split second before they turned cold and hard again.

Sonic tried again. "But we have had some fun times together. Remember after my birthday party you made me laugh so hard that I started choking on birthday cake? Oh and remember the time we were all hanging out on Angel Island and we found Knuckles asleep so you thought it would be a good idea to draw all over his face and it took him all day to figure out why people were laughing at him?"

"So what?" Amy snapped as she tried to knock him out again. She nearly got him that time and Sonic breathed a sigh of relief when he managed to get out of the way just in time.

"Do you remember the day we met on Little Planet? You were hiding in a bush watching me and then randomly approached me and didn't say anything as you just stood there and stared at me. Then Metal Sonic kidnapped you and I rescued you?"

Amy smiled but then huffed as she took another swing at him.

"Then you just dropped me off the ground and disappeared for years. The next time we met, it was only by pure chance." Amy growled out.

"Pure chance?" Sonic gasped out. "Amy you always managed to find me no matter what and it freaks me out sometimes." Amy froze and stared at Sonic who continued speaking, "If I'm being honest it can be quite fun sometimes. You are pretty fast and I'm constantly on high alert in case you decide to randomly jump out of a bush and surprise me."

Amy giggled and Sonic took this as a good sign. "We're team mates Amy. We fight evil together and the amount of times that you've saved us, we can't lose you. I can't lose you."

Amy blinked a few times and looked deep in thought before Luke screamed and managed to pull himself out of the net.

"No Amy, don't listen to me, he's only trying to keep us apart. It was me and you before it was you and him. He stole you away remember and then just ditched you before only speaking to you and needed you when it's convenient for him. He doesn't care about you!" Luke yelled as he jumped on top of Sonic and punched him in the face.

Sonic punched back and watched in horror as Amy's eyes turned cold again.

"No!" Sonic yelled. He was so close to getting her back.

"You can't have her she's mine!" Luke shouted in Sonic's face as he tried to punch every inch of Sonic's body. Sonic barely felt any pain from the stupid hedgehog's punches, but he did find them annoying.

"You stole her from me and I'll kill you!" Luke yelled wildly. "You don't know or love her like I do."

Sonic glared at him. "Of course I know her! I know that she's one of the strongest on our team." Sonic kicked Luke off him and continued ranting. "She's always so happy and positive no matter what happens and that in turn keeps our spirits up."

Amy gasped at what Sonic was saying.

"She's beautiful and special and has compassion for all living things. She's strong minded and determined and will always do what's right. She's nobody's property and can't be controlled by anyone! She can make her own mind up! You think I don't care about her? Well I do care about her! A lot more than she realises." Sonic yelled.

Amy blinked and placed a hand on her throbbing head. What was going on?

Sonic was about to punch Luke again when Amy jumped in the middle. Sonic froze in shock and Luke smirked.

"Enough!" Amy yelled as she glared at Sonic. Sonic sighed and lowered his arm in defeat. He was beginning to think this love potion would never wear off. He'd lost Amy and all because he didn't protect her like he had promised to. He knew he couldn't force her to stay; that would make him as bad as Luke.

Amy stared down at the hammer in her hand. "This is for everything you did to me." She hissed before quickly turned around and hitting Luke on the head, knocking him out.

Sonic stared at her with wide hopeful eyes as she turned around to look at Tails and Eggman who had both froze to watch what was going on.

Amy stroked a finger along the handle of the hammer and smirked. "This is for drugging me and making me steal from my friends." She snarled as she charged towards Eggman.

"Uh oh." Eggman whimpered pathetically as the small pink angry hedgehog charged towards him and with one clean swing of her hammer sent him hurtling into the distance.

"And it's out of the park!" Amy yelled as she fist bumped the air as the mad doctor vanished.

Feel free to leave your opinions. Only one chapter left and I'll have that posted tomorrow.
