Picking up her bag from the ground, Amy waited for Rouge to scoot her way out of the booth they all were sat at before climbing out after. Bunnie and Mina said a small goodbye and agreed to text them before they left through the door.

Amy fumbled with the straps of her bag, looking down patiently waiting for Rouge to finish with her phone. It seemed to be a few more minutes before the batgirl smiled with satisfaction and finally handed the phone back to its real owner. Amy held the phone questionable, her brow creased as she had a few questions running through her mind. She had been so busy making up stories and telling gossip on Sonic's account that she had unintentionally followed Rouge to the café and sat down with some really popular girls who normally laughed at her, only for this time they treated her like she belonged. By the time she had finally caught on where and who she was with, she was far too shy to ask. Now the girls were gone though she placed a hand on Rouge's shoulder to get her attention, "What did you do with Sonic's account? Also how come we were with Bunny and Mina? Don't they normally hang out with Sonic? I thought you said they turned on you."

Rouge grinned to herself, "Well well you sure weren't paying attention. Got a certain blue hedgehog on the mind?"

"Rouge…"

"Okay, firstly Sonic has deleted his account, so all I did was create a new one in his name. I uploaded a few photos of him like he probably would have and I also wrote an apology message and sent to everyone" the older girl explained casually before throwing her bag on her shoulder and walking to the door, Amy shortly following behind, "but why would you do that? Doesn't that defeat the object of getting people to hate him?"

"Well I had to get people to accept the friend request somehow. Not only that but who exactly is going to really forgive him after what he said? However we can't be so blunt this time, our attacks will have to sneaky this time, no more secret busting. People already want to beat him up so we got that part done. Next on the list is getting rid of Sally and that's where you come in" Rouge said, pointing to her cheerfully as if they were talking about something innocent. Amy looked down slightly to the ground, her heart started to race at the thought of her actually being with Sonic- no wait, revenge! That's what it was about.

Shaking her head, Amy rushed a little to keep up with the batgirl who walked faster than she did, "Okay but what about the password book, do we still need that?" she asked, but Rouge shook her head, "Hmm, so long as we have it we could easily get the blame, you'll need to find a way to get it back to his house without him finding out."

Amy seemingly paused and blinked a couple times as the idea sunk in, "Wait how am I supposed to do that?" she complained, Rouge just gave her a look that made her feel she had said something stupid. "Okay" the pink hedgehog sighed.

"Okay now that that is taken care of, to answer your next question about the girls, they did turn on me. They're Sally's friends and they're loyal to her" Rouge started, feeling almost disgusted as she spoke about them, "But after what Sonic said about Sally on SpaceBook I believe they have gotten a little… protective. I told them our plan and they were more than happy to help. They can get us into Jet's party no problem, they have intel on not only students but teachers as well and they know Sonic's weaknesses. I'd say they'll be a big help to our little project" she laughed.

"What Sonic said about Sally? But wasn't it us who wrote those things about her?" she questioned, not feeling easy about the situation now. Rouge stopped walking and turn to face her, her smile never left her lips as she winked to the naïve twelve year old, "Did we now? I sure don't remember that" with that she turned around and carried on her way home, leaving Amy alone with her conscience.


The sun was slowly disappearing on the horizon and the sky was a deep colour of red and orange. Tails hadn't left Sonic's house all that long ago and was now running along the usual path back to his own home, his bag grasped firmly in his hands.

If there was one thing he concluded that day, it was that his new LightSpeed shoes were so much more comfortable to run in then his old ones.

With his house finally in view, Tails had made it back in perfect time as he felt the light tap of water drop onto his nose, which was surely followed by the rest of its friends. The young fox narrowly missed being caught in a storm as he ran into his house and shut the door close to the outside world. He sighed deeply with a hand on his racing heart as the tapping of rain beat across the window glass relaxingly.

"Tails honey, where have you been?" a mature female voice called from a different room. Tails's ears picked up at the slightly worried tone his mother held, "Sorry mom, I was at a friend's house doing homework, I told you I'd be out" he cried out.

"Okay sweetheart, but call me next time you're going to be late, I was starting to worry about you"

"Sorry!" he shouted again. When that was out of the way Tails ran to the stairs and ascended up to his room. Making sure the door was closed behind him and the light was flicked on, he consciously went to his window and closed the curtains, his hands trembling and his heart racing as he knew what he had done was wrong. When feeling no one could see him he went to his bag and opened it wide before tipping everything out onto his bed.

There it was, buried within all his other School books, a small blue diary which was thick with pages and pages of writing. He hesitated but took it in his hands, staring at it for a small time and contemplating if he should go through with this or not.

"It feels so wrong, he's my friend now…" he mumbled to himself, turning the book slightly as he looked it over from all angles, "But… I really need to know."

With a deep breath, Tails sat down on his bed and placed the diary next to him. He opened to the first page and began to read.

Dear Diary

My counsellor said I should use you, I don't know what good it will do.

I'm supposed to write down how I feel about things, what's happened in the day and stuff. I might get in trouble if I don't write in you so I guess I'll just have to get used to you.

Uncle Chuck is nice to me, today I ran again and accidently broke something and he didn't hit me for it, I really thought he would because he really liked that vase. On better news I can run again now, my first time in a few months. I'm so scared of tomorrow though, I have to go to School again. Chuck is moving me to a different School, I don't have to worry about Shadow anymore, but I'm so scared of what everyone will think of me. They won't like me because I'm a demon, I want to control my speed but I can't, it's too hard.

I'm scared Chuck will take me back, I can't go back there, but he might get sick of me if I don't control my power and not want me anymore. Then Nack might hurt me again.

I hate being me, I want to be normal like everyone else. Nack doesn't hurt the other kids, he didn't break their legs, just me. The kids at School punch me as well, Shadow tried to murder me.

I don't know what happened to him after the teachers found the penknife on him, I think they sent him to a naughty School, but after he stabbed me I keep having dreams of all the things he did to me. I'm so scared to go to School again, I haven't been in such a long time. I don't even have a mummy or daddy to go to.

But I have Chuck now, my Uncle Chuck. I think he's going to look after me, he's funny and kind to me.

He said if I didn't like my new School I could carry on getting home Schooled, I wish I could do that now but he won't let me yet. But no one knows me, if I don't run again they'll think I'm normal right?

I guess writing in you diary isn't bad after all, maybe if I just write this stuff I won't have to tell anyone how I feel.

Tails closed the book, his head dipped down shamefully while he brushed away the small tears in his eyes. Sonic had been no older then he was when he wrote that, the things people had done to him in the past, Tails never knew. He felt though that if he read more, he would discover more then he cared to know… but he wanted to know it all. He needed to for his research. He knew there was more than just childhood stories in that book, he saw it the first time he had entered Sonic's room. The book was opened to the back and inside was a thin paperback journal.

Sniffing loudly to himself and wiping his nose on his arm, the young fox held the book once again and flickered to the very back of the diary, and just as he remembered, the small paper journal was hidden between pages of writing. He took the journal and set the diary to the side, knowing he would end up reading it later, but right now he had his mind fixed on one thing as his eyes trailed across the big printed words;

MEDICAL JOURNAL

It felt wrong, but he ignored himself as he opened up the pages and read inside. He finally got all the information that he needed.


A couple of days had passed and the time Sonic had off School what exactly what he needed. He had done practically nothing but stay in bed at first, not sleeping though, just lying under the soft blankets and letting everything run through his head a thousand times over. The emerald, the rumours, understanding the way people treated him, who would hack his account, did his Uncle still love him, what will happen when he went back, could he face Mrs. Winter?

Question after question after question… he worried so much over it he made himself sick. But finally a day was gone and over with, and his Uncle did the best thing for him by pushing him to leave his room and go outside, convinced he was making himself depressed by refusing to go for a run. It was like Sonic had forgotten how, but when going outside for the first time in two days, he got his legs moving properly once again. The wind slashed through his quills and stung at his eyes when the scenery around him blurred the faster he ran. He loved every second of it; he started to felt like himself again.

He didn't want to go back home. After that he went back to his normal routine, getting up somewhat early now that he didn't need to go to School, taking care of his dog again instead of leaving it down to his Uncle, and went on errands when he was asked to.

He didn't have as many dark thoughts as he did before, sometimes he would look down at his wrist and wonder why he would even think of doing something like that, but he didn't ponder too much over it. He went to the shops and brought himself a lot of different creams and serums that all claimed to remove or hide scars and clear up scabs. He didn't bother to research on any of them, just brought the ones that looked good and hoped they'd do the job.

With the week slowly passing he actually met up with a few of his friends as well. Tails always wanted to come round and do homework with him. Sonic wasn't so much interested in that but he let the kid place all his books on the bedroom floor and talk away about the rich history in Science and machinery. He also started to ask a lot of questions about his speed and how he could control it, it was something Sonic just shrugged off as he didn't want to talk about it, no matter how much the young fox pressed the matter. In the end he always remind silent.

He hadn't seen much of his other friends now understanding why, and Sally still wasn't talking to him, but he had managed to sneak out of the house to spend some time with Knuckles, but even he was acting strange despite Sonic telling him what had recently happened.

For the first time though Sonic felt like things were starting to look a bit better, even though nothing had really changed he felt less stressed knowing he had gained back a little bit of self-control. He could spend a day listing through everything bad that was happening but instead he focused on what was good right now, his Uncle was still on his side, he was starting to get his friends back, Tails still worshiped him, the big game was coming up and he was most likely to win and get the praise of everyone.

But most importantly of all, he figured out who had hacked into his account.

The School day had yet to start and everyone had yet to get to their classes. Everyone on the Football Team was asked to skip all their lessons and go straight to the Sports room for a full day of training for the game on Friday.

His weekend was over and he was ready, he only had one chance to prove to his Coach he was serious and ready to play.

But before joining his team mates he headed to the Science department, marching passed glaring students and pushing away anyone in his path. They all hated him now so why let them think he cared?

He walked straight to the classroom that quickly became his biggest phobia and walked in without asking permission first. It was only her there, sorting through papers but standing with her back to him. So with a hatred filled glare, he slammed the door loudly behind him, causing the cat to jump with fright and drop her papers everywhere after spending so long organising them.

She spun around with her hand on her heart, only to lay eyes on the boy she hated.

"Can I help you?" she spat before leaning down to pick up the papers that were scattered across the floor, Sonic's eyes never left her. "I know it was you" he seethed angrily to her, his fists starting to clench under his sleeves.

"Of course, don't you have a game to go to?" the teacher dismissed before lining up the papers to match and placing them neatly on the table.

She hardly saw him come before he was stood opposite from and slammed his fist down upon her desk, "I know you hacked my account! You spread all the rumours around pretending to be me, and thanks to you everyone in the School wants me dead! But I figured that was what you wanted right?"

She looked at him the same way she normally did that sent shivers down his spine, this time though her cold emotionless stare had no chilling effect on him. She adjusted her blazer before walking around her desk so she wasn't so far away from him, "And what makes you think I would do that?"

He took a step back, but his eyes never left her emotionless stare, "Not exactly hard for a Science teacher who's good with computers, plus you haven't exactly been treating me like the teachers' pet" he threw back, glaring angrily. The woman actually smiled lightly to herself and allowed for a small laugh to escape pass her lips, Sonic started to feel sick again.

"They always say teachers know their students better then we think, guess that came to your advantage right?" he pushed, trying to get a better reaction from her. She never gave anything away, remaining poised just as a statue, "So you can't get me done for supposedly 'attacking you' so you decide to accuse me for fraud?"

He wasn't feeling as confident as before, "What?"

"You really thought you could accuse me of something so trivial? You are nothing more than a piece of filth! I might put you in your place at School to make the day more bearable, but as far leaving this building you are nothing more to me, I wouldn't let you even concern me on my own time let alone bother to ruin your social life!"

He hadn't noticed, but she had backed him into the wall, his back firmly buried in the cold bricks, his fear suddenly returning, proving to him he was not as strong as he thought he was. "In fact… I think you need to learn a little respect!"

He darted away from her as her hands lashed out to grab his arms; he only narrowly avoided her grasp before she slashed her hand, sharp claws catching on the back of his neck which caused him to fall to his knees from the pain.

As he cried out from the shock, a hand grasped out his mouth to shut him up while her other arm wrapped around his stomach. He was aggressively pulled his feet as she started to drag him to her desk.

For the first time Sonic fought back. Opening his mouth just enough he bit down on her finger as hard as he could. She squealed loudly and let him go. Taking the opportunity Sonic tried to run to the door, but fell when something heavy impacted with the back of his head, causing him to end up on the ground. Mrs. Winter was on top of him in seconds as he moaned in pain; she grabbed him by the wrists and tried to pull him up.

"NO!" he growled before using his foot and kicking her firmly in the stomach. She clenched over completely winded and almost struggling to breath. One more time Sonic tried to escape, he pushed himself up, dizziness making him stumble sluggishly, and ran straight to the door. He had almost opened it before he was pulled back once again, the teacher grabbing his arms before placing a hand around his neck to stop him from struggling.

"Let me go! No! Stop it!" he screamed out, feeling her hold getting tighter as she pulled him to her desk.

Behind her chair a small closet, no higher than her knees, was built into the wall which was there to store Science equipment and other things like that. Today it was cleared out.

Kicking her chair out the way and reviling the closet in plain sight, the door was already ajar and the key was in the keyhole. Sonic hadn't noticed as he struggled against her, trying to kick her, punch her, anything to get her away from him, completely terrified of what she was going to do.

She kicked him in the back of his knees to cause him to fall down, crying out in pain. Her hold had loosened when she reached out to the small hidden door and opened it wide, Sonic manage to fight his way out of her hold completely before she quickly grabbed his quills in her hands, the sensitive nerves practically paralysing him as panic over took him and he thrashed around, just missing her every time.

With one last move she grabbed a hold of the hood of his jacket and pulled him to the closet, pushing him firmly inside so quickly that in his panic state he hadn't realised what she had done until he felt the small confined spaces of the dark walls with his hands and back, his body feeling cramped and unmoving. He quickly looked around starting to hyperventilate at where he was, his only light being blocked out by Mrs. Winters as she covered his exit trying to force kicking feet in the tight space. "No please don't NO!" he screamed but she door was shut tight on him, leaving him in complete darkness.

"You're right, I do know my students better then they think, even their biggest fears" was the last thing she heard from her.

He started to choke on the lack of air he believed he no longer had, his chest racking as his hands scaled the wall looking for a way out. There was no way he could stand up, he could barely fit sitting down, every nerve in his body was screaming out just as he was out of fear. He kept kicking at the door, praying someone would hear him and get him away.

Despite all his promises tears fell from his eyes, "Let me out! Please someone help me! I can't… no, I can't… not again…" all he felt was breath after breath after breath ripping him up inside. He had panic attacks before but never had he had one this bad. He struggled to move himself forward as his legs got completely caught under himself. His head started to spin.

"No…"

Hyperventilating was all he could feel himself doing.

"Please someone…"

Every nerve in his body had seized itself up and started to scream in agony.

"Anyone…"

His voice was so harsh it had become a faint whisper and he could barely hear himself.

"… help me…"

He lost all consciousness as everything went black.


Okay ending wasn't my best peice of writing but I'm really tired and was on a bit of writing block for that part. Hopefully it gets the point across though.
