*~~~~Ch 21~~~~*


"Oh Amy. Where are you?" Sonic said worriedly.

It has been 3 days since Amy's disappearance…..Also Sally's. She was nowhere to be found. When Sonic arrived at her house, he was surprised to know that there was nobody there. Everybody searched and searched for both.

"Shadow? Did you find anything?" Sonic asked.
"No…I'll keep looking."

Secretly, Shadow was hoping to meet Star again, but she too had disappeared. Shadow came up to a house that was in the middle of nowhere. It was night when he found it. It was white and pretty small. He saw the lights turned on, but nobody seemed to be there.

"That's strange….Hello?" Shadow asked knocking gently on the door.
Nothing.
"Hello? Wow." The door was unlocked. He walked in and searched the house. He came upon a red headband.
"Amy! She was here….I have to tell Sonic! And anyways, this house creeps me out."
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a moan.
"Help…."
"Holy crap…"
"Help…"
"Oh God…Oh God…"
"Help….Anybody there?"
"Yes-Yes-Yes ghost? What do-do you want?"
"Shadow?"
"Oh my God, it knows my name!"
"Help! I'm over here!"
"Huh?"

When he turned around, he saw Star on the floor trying to get up.

"Star?!"
"Gee, thanks for helping me."
"Oh! Yeah! Sorry." Shadow helped her get, when he finished, he felt something on his hands, "Blood?"
"Oh, I guess I'm still bleeding…."
"What happened?"
Star sighed, she knew she had to speak up, "My brother…He kind of hurt me."
"Kind of? You're almost fainting!" It was true, Star stood up wobbling .
"Ok. Ok. So he hurt me….A lot. He hit me with a metal baseball bat not too long ago…..I think."
"What do you mean you think?"
"What day is it?"
"It's Thursday."
"Oh crap, I've been out for 2 days."
Shadow growled, "Who's your brother?"
"Ke-Keith."
"What?!"
"I-I didn't know he would kidnap Amy."
'Where did he take her?"
"Arizona."
"Holy cow, that's far away…" Shadow took in a deep breathe, "Come with me."
"Why? I betrayed you…I'm sorry…"
"Just come with me."
"Ok…"

Shadow carried Star to Sonic's house. There Sonic quickly made plans. He made a backpack full of his things and snacks to get ready to go get Amy.

"Whoa. Whoa, you're not leaving without me." Shadow said.
"Or me." Star said.
"Fine, but you have to be at my pace. And why you Star?"
"Because I'm her sister. I know him better than all of you. You don't know his weaknesses like I do."
"She's right Sonic, let's take her." Shadow said pleadingly.
"I don't care as long we get there fast."

Shadow, Sonic, and Star left his house with full of hope that Amy is not hurt. Especially Sonic. I swear if he hurt Amy, I will kick his worthless ass, Sonic thought angrily.

"Don't worry Amy, I'm coming," He whispered.
