Title: Blast to the Past
Chapter 10: Dandelions
Galexia laughed as she saw Sonic burst out of the house. Rosy turned towards Galexia in anger,
"Galexia! Why are you laughing!" Galexia told her to think and suddenly Rosy giggled.
"Wait…I don't get it…why are you laughing Rosy?" Dash asked. Flash said nothing but his eyes clearly portrayed confusion,
"Don't you guys remember Mommy's stories? This is the point in their relationship where Dad always ran away from her! He's just being shy!" Flash and Dash's eyes widened,
"So…Papa doesn't love Mommy?"
"Well…right now he doesn't," She then ruffled the boy's heads in a comforting manner, "Don't worry. He will though. I bet that he just wants to be alone right now, so why don't we go and hang out with the others? I'm sure they've been worrying about us." Flash nodded,
"Okay."
.:Meanwhile with Sonic:.
After running for miles and miles, his face was still tainted with pink.
What's up with me? Why was I blushing? Wait a second! Sonic put a hand to his cheek, I'm still blushing! All I did was think about the kiss that Amy and I had. Sonic felt his face heat up even more, What does this mean?! People only kiss people they like right…? But the kiss was an accident! But I liked that kiss…
"What!" Sonic shouted out loud, "I couldn't have liked it!" However his blush said otherwise, Aw…who am I trying to kid? I liked the kiss! Sonic felt his lips twitch into a smile, the denial fading away, I want to kiss her again… Sonic though dreamily as he unwittingly touched his lips.
Suddenly he crashed into a tree,
"What the! What am I thinking about Sonic?! Kissing girls?! That goes way against your personality! Sonic muttered as he picked himself up from the ground and brushed the dirt off of his knees, But I don't just want to kiss anyone…I want to kiss Amy Rose…Just the thought of her name was enough to bring a dumb smile to his face. Sonic suddenly slapped himself, Wait, wait wait…this is all happening too fast! How can I like her so suddenly? We only kissed! …but I want to kiss her again… Sonic groaned and sat back down. He couldn't even run in this state, he would just probably crash into a tree again.
"Well, I can't deny it. Eventually I will fall in love with Amy…Rosy, Flash and Dash are proof of that…" Suddenly he laughed and laid his head against the tree trunk,
"I wonder how it happened…this stuff doesn't happen instantaneously…I guess my feelings began to bubble up so fast after I saw the other side of Amy this morning and then we k-kissed…" The colbalt hedgie laughed nervously, "Then again, a lot of this happen to occur to me quickly too, so love shouldn't be an exception right? Nah…I don't think this is love though…more likely that it's a crush." Sonic blushed even redder at the word,
"So I guess wanting to kiss her and blushing at her name is natural…I don't think that kind of thing happens when you're in love.." He crossed his legs and looked up at the leaves of the trees. He was laying in some forest, he noticed but he had never seen it before. The light from the sun filtered through the trees just right so that it created a surreal effect. Sonic picked a dandilion off of the ground and sniffed it,
"Hm…I guess this love stuff also makes you want to stop and smell the flowers," Sonic laughed again, "I can't believe I'm taking this so well! The old me would just freak out and not stop running! I mean at first I fainted but other than that, I've taken everything in stride" His hearty laugh echoed around the forest. Sonic just couldn't stop smiling. He felt as if great burden had been lifted off of him (probably his years and years of denial). "Amy, Amy, Amy…Amy Rose," Sonic said, laughing and smiling and blushing all the way, "I like Amy Rose," Sonic said to the flower, "I really really really like her. My little Rose. Isn't that an ironic twist?" The flower didn't respond as Sonic continued to twirl it, "Its funny, since I've always run away from her and her advances. She probably must hate me…" Sonic looked at the grass, "Well, if she hates me now, I'm sure she won't hate me forever. Actually, I'm pretty sure she won't hate me forever," Sonic stretched and got up from his spot, "I'd better head back though. The kids are probably getting worried…" He turned around to look at the tree that had helped him realize his feelings,
Only to see a certain pink hedgehog staring back at him, wide-eyed and mouth a-gape. Sonic's good mood instantly went sour. He dropped the dandelion,
.:Back in the Future:.
Back in the future, everything was equally sour.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN MY BABY'S MISSING?!" A certain bat shrieked as she threw a shoe at a certain red echidna. Said bat was 6 months pregnant with their second child and Jem's sudden disappearance wasn't helping to keep her stress level down. Knuckles backed away slowly from his wife. Just because she was pregnant didn't mean that she wouldn't resort to kicking him and making sure they wouldn't be having any more kids.
"C-Calm down Rouge! And I didn't say missing, I was just wondering if you knew where he was! He's not watching the Master Emerald so I'm sure he's just hanging around with Maria and lost track of time! You know how he gets!" Knuckles attempted in vain to calm her down,
"No!" Rouge roared, tears stinging at her eyelids, "This is different! Something feels off about this!" Knuckles opened his mouth to speak, only for her to cut him off, "And don't you dare say that it's the hormones talking, because its not Knucklehead! This is on Motherly instinct, and when I say something's wrong, I mean something's wrong!" She growled. Knuckles glared at her,
"We'll if it'll calm you down, then I'll call Shadow and see if Jem is with them," Rouge didn't say anything as Knuckles walked to the phone and dialed the ebony hedgehog's number. The ultimate lifeform answered on the second ring,
"Hedgehog residence. Shadow speaking. What do you want? You've got 5 seconds to speak before I hang up on you." Shadow asked in a bored tone. Knuckles sighed. Not even marrying Tikal could change his personality.
"Hey Shadow. It's me Knuckles. I was wondering if Jem was down there with Maria. Rouge is looking for him and is having a fit."
"I AM NOT HAVING A FIT YOU IDIOT!" Shadow grunted,
"I see…Give me one sec," Shadow muttered before racing around the house. He came back to phone a second later, "Neither Jem nor Maria is here…or the twins…" Knuckles gasped, "So Rouge was right…"
"Are you sure that they aren't on your island Knucklehead," Shadow said, though Knuckles was able to point out a slight note of concern in his dull voice. Knuckles on the other hand, grew inflamed,
"If I hadn't searched my island thoroughly do you think I would have called? Well, maybe Jem and Maria took the twins out somewhere…"
"Maya would have told me before they left. She wouldn't go anywhere without informing me. What did Rouge exactly say?"
"She said that she felt that something was wrong and her motherly instinct was going crazy. I think it's the hormones-" Shadow interrupted the red echidna, "Don't underestimate Rouge and her gut insticnts. They've saved many a life during our missions. I'll be up there in five minutes with Tikal. Something tells me that there's more to this that meets the eye," Shadow growled. Knuckles paused, "Shadow…do you think its Eggman?" Shadow sighed, "I don't know Knuckles," And with that the hedgehog hung up the phone, leaving Knuckles to deal with an overly hormonal Rouge. Once Shadow got off the phone, he messily ran a hand through his quills. He couldn't sense any of the kids nearby (normally he could tell if they were in a 25 mile radius since they were all born with high levels of chaos energy) and that made him worried. He hastly grabbed his red
chaos emerald and muttered the two famous words, "Chaos control."
A/N: After that heavy chapter last time I updated, I decided to go for something a bit lighter...
Anyway...
Sonic and Amy are finally together! And don't say that it was rushed. :P I know that it was rushed, it felt rushed to me as I wrote it, but everything happens at Sonic speeds for Sonic, so why should falling in love be any different? Plus I guess that with his kids there it would spark up some feelings for Amy you know? (that's my excuse, LOL). I wanted to prolong their getting together but I figured it out that its necessary to the plot that they get together now and you'll find out later why…Next chapter, prepare for some crazy worried mom action! xD If you though Rouge was bad, wait till you see Blaze and Amy…O.o You do not want to mess with their kids…
