Final part of Extreme Amy... AT LAST!
March 23rd, 7:30am
Amy woke up from a peaceful slumber she was in: she was dreaming her and Sonic were on the beach. Her alarm clock buzzed her awake as she tiredly tried to find the snooze button blindly, since her head was still under the covers. She sat up throwing her legs over off the bed. Her feet hit a fuzzy pink rug that tingled her feet in the morning.
"Mornings would be better if they happened in the afternoon," she groaned. "Oh yeah! It's Friday!"
She turned off her alarm clock so it wouldn't ring again. She quickly got ready for the day. She changed from her pink PJs to her pink dress. She didn't live far from the school so she walked there. While walking she thought to herself. I really messed up last week. If it wasn't for Starr, we would've been kicked out. I wish I could have powers like Starr, but not water. Her and Shadow go through the race so fast and I'm still behind, slowing them down.
Just as she was think ing to herself, something caught her eye. It was a bright, coloured light in the bushes. She went over to the light but when she got there, everything went bright. Amy covered her eyes from the sudden light, but it burned through her eyelids. She then felt warmth submerge her entire body, she felt a new kind of energy enter and move through her. When the light and tingling feeling went away she paused and looked around, but there was no bright light to be found anywhere. She pulled out her phone to check the time; she had five minutes before the bell rang and she was ten minutes away from the school.
Panicking, Amy started to run the rest of the way to school. She ran as fast as she could but she was getting winded. She felt her arms getting this flowing feeling inside them while running, she started to move them back and forth to try and go faster. Then her arms started to go out like a plane's wings. She felt the wind go through her hair and caress on her arms as she started to pick up speed. She was running as fast as Sonic as she felt herself almost flying off the ground. She saw the school up ahead and slowed down when she was headed for the front doors. She came to a complete stop, her nose poking the door. She breathed heavily, trying to absorb what had just happened, but she remembered that she would be late if she didn't get a move on, so she went inside so she wouldn't be late.
March 23rd, 3pm
Amy was at the Transporter before anyone else was, she realized that she had gained a new power that could help her team win the Grand Prix. Eventually the Top 3 teams got to the Transporter. Starr and Shadow were confused why Amy was there already.
"Amy we were looking for you," Starr said to Amy. "How'd you get here so fast?"
"I'm not sure," Amy answered them. "I just know that I'm fast like the wind!"
"What did you say?" A voice said shocked. Team Dark Rose turned around and saw that it was Jet. "I'm the master of the wind! How can you be fast like the wind?"
"She doesn't need to explain," Starr said bluffing again before Amy could answer. "We'll see you on the track."
Jet huffed at the rival team and walked away to his own. This time, the Top 3 were racing at the Ice Factory. Everything was covered in ice and people's breaths could be seen as if it was smoke from a fire. But once everyone started racing once the timer went off, everyone was warmed up.
Jet and Amy were neck and neck once the second lap was almost over. They fought for dominance to reach the finish line. Just a couple more metres until the finish line was there. Amy tried her newly-founded gift; she put her arms out and she felt it instantly. The wind was going through not only her hair and limbs, but her soul too. She picked up speed and started to pass Jet with excessive force. Jet kick dashed to try and catch up to the pink hedgehog but it was too late; Amy had crossed the finish line before him! Once Jet crossed the line, he stomped the ground in frustration; eventually everyone crossed.
"Congratulations!" Omochao said on the PA. "The finalist are: the Babylon Rogues and Team Dark Rose! They will be competing in the finals next week!"
The crowd cheered as the finalists bowed to accepted the appreciation. Team Heroes walked over to their finalist friends and congratulated them.
"Way to go Amy," Sonic said. "You were going really fast on that last part."
"Now I can run with you!" Amy said excited as she threw her arms around her man's neck. Sonic returned the hug.
"Hey Tails," Starr said to the small fox. "Good race. And thanks again for making me a Gear. It works great!"
"No problem Your Highness. Nothing but the by for my friends!" Starr gave Tails a friendly hug of appreciation.
March 30th
Today was the final race of the Grand Prix. The final teams had practiced on their own and on the previous tracks. The Babylon Rouges planned to win the race and not lose their dignity because of, what they called, a 'three's company team'. The final race was at the Forgotten Tomb, old temples with vines growing out of them and small river flowing through the crevices of every crack.
GO!
The final race started with a rush of wind as Amy was the first to take off, leaving the others in her dust. The track had sharp turns and rock ramps ready to crumble at any moment. During this race, the Babylon Rogues were showing off to the other team how much better they were.
First, Jet went on a rail to grind. Shadow went on another rail and spun around on it. Next was Wave: she went off an air ramp and she flew threw three air rings. Amy went on the same ramp and flew through not only the three rings, but she flew right up to a high spot that you couldn't get to by a Gear. Finally, Storm used his strength to bash through pillars, swinging his arms around. Starr put her hand out and the pillars shattered with one touch of her hand. Storm was baffled at her strength as she continued on her way and he hit a pillar, slowing him down. Team Dark Rose was ahead of the Babylon Rogues and were seconds away from the finish line.
The Rogues had a plan in case this happened. They all got in a line, in order with Jet in the front, Wave behind and Storm in the back. Storm used his force which went through Wave then she threw her arms at Jet which he used to zoom straight ahead, ready to knock Team Dark Rose off their lead. Starr, being behind her teammates, felt something kinky (weird) behind her and saw Jet flying right to her. She put her hand out at him and she used her water abilities to shoot water at him. When the force of the water hit Jet, it was so strong that he flew backwards right into his own team! Once she knew he wasn't going to try that again, Starr turned her head right round and crossed the finish line, with Shadow and Amy waiting for her.
"Team Dark Rose has won the Grand Prix!" Omochao said on the PA. "The winners!"
The crowd went wild, not even noticing the Rogues crossing the finish line. They were in total defeat, lowering their heads with dishonour. Starr saw that they felt like failures so she went to them. She called out Jet's name and he looked up with anger. Starr reached out her hand and grabbed his and shook it.
"You ran a good race Jet the Hawk," she sincerely said. "Only a good team leader would try risking himself to help his team. I'm honoured to have raced against someone as good as you."
Jet was confused at her optimistic speech. He thought she was going to gloat in his face, but she did the exact opposite. He returned her hand shaking and smiled at her.
"Thanks Starr," he answered her after his complete silence. "But you better be ready when we race again."
"You bet," she smiled at him. They both had that friendly-rival look in their eyes. "Rogues you're lucky to have Jet as a leader."
"Tell shorty that he did a good job on your Gear," Wave said.
"And Storm," Starr said. "You keep being the honourable right-hand man that you are."
Storm nodded as Starr walked away to join the celebrating ceremony.
Time to move on with the storyline with another hedgehog...
