-Chapter 12-

Amy was sound asleep in her bed as the night wore on. Unaware that she was being stalked by a shadowy figure. This figure was of course, Mephiles. Keeping to his promise he made earlier, the demon entered the young flower's home and fully aware that he was being watched. He used his powers to make all the surveillance equipment around him to shut down. Then the demon directed his attention to the sleeping pink hedgehog.

Amy's body slowly rose and fell as she breathed shallowly. Mephiles approached her bed and gently sat down beside her. He loved seeing Amy like this. She still looked so peaceful, innocent, and fragile. Mephiles brushed her bangs and quills with his fingers. Amy's ears twitched a little, and she let out a small moan. Then the demon laid over her in a diagonal position with his face close to hers.

'The moonlight makes her look even more lovely.' Mephiles thought.

Soon, Amy was disturbed by the added weight on her form and fluttered her eyes open. In a split second, she was about to scream, and Mephiles pinned her to her bed and forced her into a liplock. Amy struggled like a wild animal trapped in a cage to get him off of her, but it was useless. Mephiles excellently held his ground while holding her down. Amy still tried to drive the demon away, but without any success.

'Stop fighting.' Mephiles whispered telepathically.

With all the pressure and weight put on the female hedgehog, it began to hurt. She started to cry.

'Please...please leave me alone!' Amy thought desperately.

'Shhhh, it's alright little one, just stop fighting me.'

Amy gave out a muffled sniffle. The demon finally released her from the liplock and the young flower gasped for air. While Amy was taking in much needed oxygen, Mephiles nuzzled into the cleft of her neck causing her body to shiver. Poor Amy was terribly exhausted.

"Go...away...please.." she rasped.

"Hmmmm, I don't think so." Mephiles smugly replied.

Amy let out a whine and tried to get the demon off her again. But being very tired, she couldn't. If she didn't have a demonic hedgehog on top of her, she'd go right back to sleep. However, Amy was having a difficult time keeping herself awake.

"Why, whatever is the matter my sweet?" Mephiles asked. "You don't look so well."

Amy threw him one nasty look.

'Damn you, go away so I can freaking sleep!'

"Then sleep." Mephiles said, reading her mind.

"I'm not doing that while YOU'RE here." Amy ranted.

Mephiles let out a chuckle.

"You needn't worry little one." he cooed.

Amy let out another whine. Clearly this guy was not going to leave. Then, Mephiles licked the mark on her neck, making Amy go into another spasm of shivers. Before she knew it, the female was starting to get in heat.

'Wha...What's...happening to me?' Amy cried mentally.

"Simple. Your body is just reacting to me." Mephiles told her quietly. "It desires my touch."

Amy felt disgusted.

'Freaking Pervert!'

Mephiles in response, bit her causing her to give out a cry. Her whole body felt like it was set on fire. She let out heavy moans and writhed under Mephiles. The demon let out dark giggles while watching the young female throw a fit.

"Please...sssstoooop." Amy rasped.

Mephiles nuzzled under her chin and started purring. Amy couldn't handle it anymore. She finally closed her eyes and fell in a deep slumber.

-

When Amy next woke up, Mephiles was gone and she tangled in her sheets. She rubbed her forehead and found that sweat had formed there.

"Eeeew..." the sakura hedgehog whined.

Amy looked around and saw it was morning. She blinked in confusion and then rubbed her eyes. She couldn't remember what had happened the night before. Amy slowly crawled out of bed and wobbled to the bathroom. She almost screamed at what she saw in the mirror. Amy looked like hell. Her quills and fur were a complete mess, and there were dark circles under her eyes.

'Crap.' she muttered in her mind.

Not only that, but her neck was really sore. Amy let out a pained groan while tilting her head from side to side.

'Maybe I should work out today.' she thought.

-

The sun began to rise high that morning and the air was filled with songs and chirps heralded by flickies and other birds in the trees. Out for a morning run was none other than Sonic the Hedgehog. The leaves fallen from the trees fluttered behind him as he whipped through the street. The cerulean hedgehog came to a halt once he reached Tails' Workshop. The kitsune was out on the porch, feeling the plants.

"Morning, Tails!" Sonic greeted.

"Morning, Sonic." Tails replied.

"So, did anything happen at Amy's place?"

Tails made a face.

"Well, not really." he said. "Something happened to the equipment during the night."

"What happened?" Sonic asked.

"It suddenly turned off by itself."

"A malfunction maybe?"

"Probably. I'll have to look at the equipment when Amy comes over."

Sonic scratched his chin. It sounded really strange. Plus, he had to wonder if Amy herself was alright. One that thought got into the blue blur's mind it got stuck there. And after a minute or two, he sped off to her house.
