Whoo hoo! Exam week is over! Hell yeah!
Sure, I've still got a Latin Grammar test...but oh well! Yes! Ha ha!
Although, what I dread more than exam week, is when you get all the tests back. I am very nervous about the maths test – so I wrote this chapter to take my mind off it.
Infinite thanks to: ShadowsAngel1, Zgirl101, LoneWolf999, UKsLaster, shynictheshadow, Silverdawn97531, ToxicWolf1132, The High School Hero, Steve993, Midnight Alexis Thorn, Dark sin broken heart, MetalDragon, Zari Thorn96, Eli Swafford! Thank you so much you guys! Your reviews were awesome! I couldn't write this without you! (^_^)
Right, so, in this chapter, we have some people's OC's! All these awesome characters are theirs and I do not own them!
Apple belongs to: SadieQHiddleston
Jamie Lynn belongs to: Mysterious Meg
Georgina belongs to: Silverdawn97531
The only down side is that someone sent me their OC, but on my PM message box – the chat seems to have disappeared. I distinctly remember the male OC – because he drew pictures of Razgriz from Ace Combat. So, if you're reading this and think, 'Hey. That's my OC which I sent to be put in the story' I'm really sorry that he wasn't in this chapter. If you still want him in the story for Amy's Art Class, could you please send me a PM again? Thank you! :D
Well, I'm going to stop chatting and let you carry on with this story. Brace yourself for tears, truth and bitchiness! Oh, and in the next chapter, the mean girl will be revealed! Definitely! No changing my mind. The mean girl will introduce herself in the next chapter!
But...I think everyone already knows who it is ;D
Enjoy chapter 14, guys! Peace out! Xx T.C xX
Chapter 14 – What have you done, Blaze?
I couldn't believe it.
I honestly thought it was a dream.
I even considered pinching myself to see if I was awake.
Although, I don't think that would have helped the situation.
"Hey," Silver's throat was scratchy and rough, making him sound different and tough, "Are you okay?"
"Never mind me!" I whispered, furiously, "What happened? What's the matter? Why are you crying?!"
He looked down, avoiding my gaze, even though he obviously wanted to talk to me about it. I wrapped my arm around his shaking shoulders – pulling him into a hug. He strained at first, but his body soon drooped as if all the life had been sucked out of him.
"It's n-nothing..." He muttered.
I scoffed, "It's not nothing. I've never seen you cry, Silver. Ever. Even that time when you broke your arm and blood was gushing out of your head. You didn't cry. You freaking laughed. There is something wrong. Don't think you can trick me,"
"Okay...okay," He sighed, rubbing a hand on his temples, "I'll tell you,"
I sat back, waiting for him to explain, as he let out a sigh and tried to swipe at his tears. I handed him a tissue and he mumbled his thanks before wiping his eyes.
"What happened?" I asked, more gently.
"It's...Blaze," He admitted.
"I figured as much,"
"We...we...umm...we...w-we...b-broke...up,"
I gasped, unable to hide my shock, "You broke up!? Oh, Silver! Why?!"
"I'm such an idiot," He growled, through gritted teeth, "It all happened so fast. I never thought she would yell it..."
"She...broke up with...you?"
"Yes,"
"What happened?"
"Amy...I know the whole deal with Shadow and Cosmo. Her plan to make Tails jealous,"
I gulped, nervously, "How...?"
"I knew something wasn't right. I could sense it. I interrogated Shadow, threatened him and he gave in and told me,"
I cursed the black hedgehog in the back of my mind, "What one earth did you use to threaten Shadow the hedgehog?"
"I threatened to hang out with him,"
"Ah. So...w-what did he say?"
"That Cosmo came up with a plan to make Tails jealous. That they would pretend to date and Tails would ask Cosmo out. Although, her plan hasn't worked so far. Or should I say, your plan? Shadow told me how all of you – except Cream – all chipped in,"
"Silver...we tried to convince her...but she was determined,"
"You didn't have to suggest Shadow!"
I'd never seen him so bitter, "Does Sonic know?"
He blinked, "I haven't told him if you haven't,"
"No,"
"Then no,"
"Look..." I patted his hand, "This isn't about me, Sonic, Cosmo or Shadow. This is about you and Blaze. What happened after you talked to Shadow?"
"This happened at the beach. I saw Blaze and pulled her to one side. I told her what I knew. She...she...she didn't say anything. She d-didn't deny it but she didn't admit it. I got annoyed and asked what the hell she was thinking. Then she said...she said that things were different and that things were changing. I said that she was just making excuses and that she couldn't blame someone else. I realise now...that it wasn't her fault entirely. But, she got angry and yelled that it was none of my business. I snapped that she should be able to tell me anything. That she didn't trust me anymore. And then she...she," Silver's voice broke again and he tore at his quills with his gloved hands.
Oh, Blaze...you idiot, I sighed to myself, "What did she say, Silver?"
"She...said that if I felt that way...then maybe we shouldn't be together. I didn't say anything...I was too shocked that she had said that. And she misinterpreted it and told me that she was finished. She wasn't going to deal with this anymore. She said to not try and persuade her to come back because she didn't want to come back. And...then she left..."
"Oh, Silver," I sighed, embracing him. He hugged back, fighting to hold back his tears whilst leaning on my shoulder. He seemed so fragile compared to the usual cocky, wacky and slightly crazy hedgehog which he usually was.
"I don't know what to do, Amy..." He mumbled into my shoulder, "I love her. She's my best friend. And my soul mate. I miss her..."
"She's just letting off steam," I reassured him, "She loves you too. I know it. I'll talk to her for you,"
He leaned back, hopefully, "Really?"
"Sure," I smiled, confidently. Although, I didn't know how I was going to do this. Blaze hadn't been talking to anyone for a while. She barely spoke to the girls and all she did was read. Talking to her about this would be easier said than done, "I'll try. I can't promise anything...but I will talk to her. Pinky promise!"
He gave a small, defeated chuckle, "Thanks Amy. You're a real friend,"
I nodded, graciously. I knew what Silver was going through. I had been sitting on a bench, crying my eyes out because my heart was breaking, a year or so ago. I knew what it felt like. And I didn't have anyone to help me. It was the least I could do for Silver.
"Are you okay to walk back by yourself?" I asked, as I shivered against the wind. It was late and cold – and I still had classes the next day.
Silver sighed, "Yeah. I'm okay. I might sit here for a little while longer. You know what the guys are like. I can't go in with tears in my eyes or they'll beat me up,"
With a giggle, I placed my hands on my hips, "If Sonic does that, tell me and I'll whack him with my hammer,"
"Oh yeah," He smirked, "I forgot that you had that. Anyway, you go in. I'm sorry I called you out in the cold. I just...didn't know who else to turn to,"
"That's okay. I just hope I can help. You and Blaze are made for each other, Silver. Don't lose hope. Out of curiosity, why did you turn to me?"
He frowned, "You don't know? You're one of my close best friends, Amy. Probably second...after Blaze,"
I nodded, slowly, "Thanks, Silver. Don't stay out too long, okay?"
He gave me a thumbs up as I stumbled towards the university. I couldn't help but worry at the idea of him sitting there, all alone in the dark and cold.
Silver didn't deserve this.
I needed to speak to Blaze.
(...)
"Amy?"
"Yo! Girl!"
"Wake up!"
"You're going to get caught!"
"Amy..."
"Huh. Leave her. She's a loser,"
"Hey! If you've got nothing nice to say, why don't you piss off back to your own seat, bunny girl!"
"Fine. Maybe I will,"
"...she's gone,"
"Good riddance,"
"For god's sake...Amy! Wake up!"
"Think you can be a little bit quieter, Mel?!"
"Sorry!"
Groaning, I forced my eye lids open. Great. I'd fallen asleep. That had to be the worst start to the day ever. It wasn't my fault that the library was so warm...but I should have known better than to drift off to dream-land when it was my second day.
"Hey. You're awake!" Maya was sitting next to me, sending me a warm smile, "Good timing!"
"What's going on?" I muttered, feeling my quills stick up and fall all over my face.
"We're studying art history," A purple wolf with black hair grinned at me, sitting directly opposite. I blinked a couple of times when I stared at her bright top and neon tutu. I don't remember speaking to her, "I'm Apple, by the way,"
I nodded, feeling my cheeks burn, "Right. Thanks. Sorry, I'm not usually this drowsy,"
"That's okay," Apple smiled, "Late night, huh?"
"Up all night partying?" Mel was sitting next to Apple, before laughing and moving her arms in a lively movement.
"So not," I smirked.
A hedgehog next to Mel looked up from her notes. She had turquoise coloured hair which was tied up in an interesting ponytail. However, her hair was still coming out at the front and her left eye was covered by hair. She was wearing a normal royal blue tank top with ripped jeans and blue boots. She shot me a small smile before asking, "What were you doing then?"
I stuttered for a moment, "Oh, not much. Just helping a friend,"
The female hedgehog nodded, "Ah. Cool. I'm Jamie Lynn, by the way. But you can call me Jamie. You're Amy, right?"
I nodded, quickly. This girl was a little different from the others, "Y-yeah. Amy Rose,"
"Well, Amy Rose," She smiled, "Glad to meetcha,"
"So, you're the infamous Amy Rose, huh?" A wolf with green and grey fur came and sat down on my right. I gulped as she stared at me with bright eyes, "I'm Georgina. But call me George,"
I sweat dropped but gave her a small wave, "Hi! Nice to meet you!"
She gave me a nod as Mel sighed, "What are we even meant to be doing? This is so dull. I didn't take art to sit around in a fucking library..."
"If you had been listening," Apple replied, with a small wink, "You would know that we had been asked to research a cultural type of art,"
"Say what?" Chu frowned.
"Like...I dunno...Oriental. Or African,"
"Lame,"
"Well, you're the one who's going to fail,"
Mel didn't seem to care, "You okay, Amy?"
"Yuh huh," I stood up, confidently, "Just gonna go and get a book, okay?"
The five of them nodded, before referring back to their notes and books. I mentally slapped myself for falling asleep. I could have missed loads! I will not be doing that again!
But this Silver and Blaze thing had gotten to me. I hadn't spoken the Blaze, obviously – she had ignored all of us girls this morning. She didn't even want to grab breakfast with us. Just said that she wanted to have a look at the books in the library.
Yeah. Right.
I scanned the book cases, looking for a section on Oriental art. I personally thought that Oriental art was the coolest cultural art topic, therefore, that was the one I was choosing. I grinned to myself as I swiped a book entitled, 'The Complete Book of Oriental Designs' and flicked through the brightly coloured pages. Perfect. I should have this report done in no time.
Metallic footsteps clunked up the aisle. I looked up to see Bunny Rabbot giving me an evil glare. She didn't say anything – just simply shifted her weight and stared at the books. I gulped, trying to pretend she wasn't there. What was her problem with me?! It had been clear that from the moment she met me – she hated me.
I pulled out my earphones and shoved them into my ears. I wouldn't feel as defenceless against Bunny if I had music playing to distract me. My phone was already playing music from my playlist, which was called: 'Amy's top 100 songs'
"Back, back, backstabber Bored, stoned, sitting in your basement all alone That you have got a set of loose lips
Back, back, backstabber
Back, back, backstabber
'Cause your little conversation's got around
And look at what we all found out
Lookie here we all found out
Twisting stories all because you're jealous
Now I know exactly what you're all about
And this is what you're all about
I grabbed another couple of books and hugged them against my chest – before deciding that I had enough resources to start my project. Trying to keep Bunny out of my line of sight, I stuck my head in the air and concentrated on my music.
Worst. Mistake. Ever.
Something stuck out into my path and I tripped over, slamming onto the floor and hearing my bones thud against the carpet. I heard a couple of snickers and a few gasps, as I groaned and rolled onto my back. I looked up to see Bunny smirking, before dragging her foot back to her body. Her eyes seemed to light up and I heard her mutter, "That put you in your place,"
She stormed past me, not even bothering to look sorry. I muttered, "Bitch," as she took her seat at her table – with a couple of stupid girls, who I didn't recognise, and who were giggling.
"Girl, you're such a backstabber Girl, you're such a backstabber
Oh girl, you're such a shit talker
And everybody knows it
And everybody knows it
Run your mouth more than anyone I've ever known
And everybody knows it
And everybody knows it
Urgh...that little, devious, bitchy, stupid, about-to-get-her-ass-kicked...
Bzzt! Bzzt!
Groaning, I hauled myself up and stiffened when a couple of people came up and put their arms round me. Apple, Maya and George led me back to my seat. Apple unwrapped her arms from around from me.
"Guys..." I gave them a small smile, "I'm fine. I'm not fragile. It's nothing. I just tripped,"
Mel scrunched a ball of paper in her hand, "Just tripped because of that bitch,"
"She's so gonna get it," Jamie agreed.
I blushed, "You saw that?"
They nodded. Great.
"Don't worry," George grinned, mockingly, "We'll find a way of getting revenge,"
Please don't say it's going to be like Mobius High. I've had enough with the pranks, rumours, hurtful comments...yadda yadda. Making your school life become like a version of Mean Girls isn't as fun as it sounds. It does not end well.
Just take a look at me and Sally.
Although, it did help me get together with the guy of my dreams...
But it could have ended badly!
I didn't reply to their comment, so the girls started talking about the art report. Slowly, I pulled out my phone to see who had texted me.
1 New Message from Shadow
Faker asked me to tell you that his race is today, because it got brought forward. He left his phone in Halls of Residence. He said that the race is by the sports building and he would love for you to come. Something about 'running round the world for you'. I missed the last part of his message. The rest of the gang are coming. What should we do about Silver and Blaze? U.L.F
I held in a giggle when I read the part about Shadow missing Sonic's message. I knew that Shadow didn't miss anything – he just chose to ignore some things. But he was right about Blaze and Silver. We needed to do something.
Silver without Blaze is like yin without yang.
The balance of sanity is completely destroyed.
That's why we have to do something.
And fast.
(...Mysterious P.O.V...)
I ignored the snooty looks which I was receiving from Rouge the bat. She was going to regret this. First I would bring down Amy and Sonic. Then I would get my revenge on the stupid fashion-obsessed jewel lover.
I sunk into my chair at the back of the room, not really listening to the teacher. She was so boring. Safety first...bla bla bla. Hell to safety. Whenever someone's around me...they need more than safety.
Beep! Beep!
Who the hell is that?
New message from Bad boy Scourge
Hey babe. Blue boy's race is today. Thought you might wanna come and stir up some trouble? Oh, maybe you could introduce yourself to the losers?
But afterwards, wanna come back to my room? ;)
Scourge x
A smirk formed onto my mouth. Finally, the moment I had been waiting for. There's no fun in ruining people's lives if they haven't met you before.
And to think, Scourge had suggested some good ideas on how to ruin their lives.
Maybe I would go back to his place afterwards...
After I'd shown Sonic and his friends who they were dealing with.
