Okay so this is where the battle will start to commence after this chappie, it's starting to get really epic and I am uber excited, it will be sad to finish this story because this is my first chapter upon chapter story that has actually turned out good! I don't think a sequel will happen but you never know. After I have finished this story, I will be moving onto another chapter upon chapter Sonic story that I am sure all of you Sonamy fans will enjoy ;)

Here's the description to the future story:

All of this just started with a mission, just a simple mission that ended in disaster. Everything started off so well, now look at me, I have been separated from my friends and I will probably never see any of them, ever again.

The description is from Amy's perspective of things, but that's all I'm giving a way! What do you think? Should I write it? I know I sand I would also be doing a Sonic/Hunger Games crossover and that will be done either before or after the fic I just told you about! I promise!

Anyway, getting back to the story we're actually in, here I present to you!

Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic!

The Many Shades Of Cream

Chapter 21: Flash Backs And Memories.

Creams chocolate brown eyes traced over the small picture she held in her hands. It was an old and tattered picture now but she didn't care. It was a picture of the day when Cosmo threw a surprise party on deck. Creams eyes watered when she spotted the green seedrian smiling shyly at the camera.

Cream remembered the day well.

-Flash Back-

"You look gorgeous Amy!" Cream said gazing in awe at the older Mobian.

"Chao Chao!" Cheese agreed.

Cream held back a laugh when she saw Sonic lost for words. She knew it! Those two were made for each other even if Sonic ran away from Amy, deep down Cream knew he had feelings for her.

Leaving the two love birds on their own, Cream giggled at that thought, she set off to go find her friends Cosmo, soon spotting the seedrian, she was about to walk up to her when something stopped her.

Tails stood just by Cosmo and Cream could vaguely hear the sentence "Your so beauti-" before Tail's mind caught up with his mouth and he let out a sort of shriek that went along the lines of "WAH!"

Cream held back yet another laugh when Cosmo, who didn't receive the vibe Tails was sending replied "Yes the stars are beautiful"

The way Tails stared at her and the way Cosmo always blushed when she was around or near Tails, made Cream mentally slap her forehead. How could she be so blind! She had seen moments when the two just stared non stop at each other, without even blinking, but Cream had always shrugged off these moments. But now Cream could see that these two had feelings for each other, even though the both of them were to afraid to show it.

Cream mentally squealed inside her head at the thought of them two together,

She remembered asking Knuckles if he was worried about Rouge and he answered very unconvincingly, stating something like he did not care about the flirtatious bat. Knuckles was a very stubborn person and he was not one to admit feelings or pour his heart out to someone, but everyone could tell, deep down, way, way, way, WAY, deep down, he felt something for Rouge and that something is l-o-v-e, love.

Cream stopped laughing mentally when a thought crossed her mind.

What about her?

Cream knew she was way to young to develop feelings for someone on that level, she knew that love would be too complicated to handle at this stage in her life, but she still couldn't help but wonder if she would ever find someone.

She has never really developed a crush for anyone she has met, mostly she does not know what a crush actually is and also the fact that, in truth, she has never really met anyone of her particular age group.

Cream would absolutely HATE to have a relationship at the moment. The thought of her kissing someone made her cringe to be honest. But love is a very complicated thing, and sometimes you don't even fall in love.

She wondered, would she ever fall in love.

Creams brow furrowed in confusion.

"What's the matter Cream" came the light voice of her seedrian friend, causing Cream to look up at her.

"Chao?" Cheese chirped, gently poking her shoulder.

"Oh, I was just thinking" Cream replied replacing her frown with a smile.

"Do you want to come play some party games?" Cosmo asked her, returning the smile.

"What kind of party games?" questioned Cream.

"I was thinking musical chairs" replied Cosmo.

"Oh definitely" Cream said with a challenging smirk.

They did end up playing musical chairs, but Sonic had a very un fair advantage so of course he was expected to win. But as him and Cream rounded the last chair, Sonic fell dramatically to the floor and when the catchy music stopped, Cream sat down on the chair triumphantly.

Everyone cheered happily as the little girl jumped about in celebration. Cheese hugged his rabbit friend and said something to her in his chao language, which no one understood other than, of course, Cream and she laughed in reply.

"You don't fool me Sonic" Amy said as she helped the once fallen hedgehog to his feet.

"Whaddya mean?" asked Sonic as he now stood at full height.

"Sonic I know you" Amy said with a knowing smile "You let Cream win"

"I have no idea what your talking about" the blue hedgehog replied with a smirk.

"Sure Sonic" Amy said, with a roll of the pair of jade green eyes.

"Besides" Sonic said rubbing a finger under his pointed nose and looking over to where Cream played happy "She deserves to be happy, at least for a little while"

Amy's heart literally melt when he said that.

"Sonic" she said trying to keep her tears of joy under control "That is the sweetest thing you have ever said!"

"Come on you two!" came a yell from Vector "Stop ya kissing session and come get in this picture!"

Sonic and Amy walked over to where the group stood, taking their places near the front in the middle.

"Okay I gotta get this timing right" Vector said, closing his eyes in concentration before pressing the button and running to get his spot in the group, but while on his way, Vector slipped over with an almighty thump but he quickly scrambled to his feet and stood by the other members of the chaotix.

"Say Cheese-Head!" Sonic yelled with a laugh.

"Cheese head!" everybody chorused.

Vector and the chaotix stood at the far left of the picture, Chris stood at the far right smiling happily with Charmy who decided to move from his place and float by Chris. Sonic stood in the middle of Amy and Knuckles, Sonic smiled cheekily at the camera while Amy looked lovingly at him and Knuckles stood with his arm's crossed with an ever so slight smirk tracing his lips. Cosmo embraced Cream just in front of the two chaotix members as they both smiled happily at the camera and finally, Tails and Cheese stood on the other side (Cheese was floating) both giving a thumbs up at the camera.

Cream smiled sadly at the photo when her eyes traced over herself, that was when she did not know how capable the Materex truly were and she still had her seedrian friend with her. Cream wished so much she could go back to them days before the Materex took everything away from them when they were on the verge of being happy again, but you can not live in the past.

Wiping her eyes, Cream placed the picture frame back on its rightful place on her bed side table and took her white chaos emerald in her hand.

"I'm scared" she whispered to it.

"Please try not to worry Cream" the chaos emerald whispered back soothingly.

"What should I do?" asked Cream.

"There is only one thing to do. You all need to work together and destroy the Materex, this time for good. Just try to be brave Cream, you're at your best when you're brave Cream" the chaos emerald replied.

"Your right" Cream said, sniffing up the rest of her cries, she gently blew her nose on her delicate handkerchief and placed the chaos emerald in her small dress pocket.

There was a knock at her door and Cream said, hardly above a whisper "Come in"

"Everybody's ready to go, are you?" Cheese the chao asked once he had opened the door.

"As I'll ever be" Cream said, smiling at her chao and taking him in her arms, she walked down the, normally full of laughter and life, quiet, echoing hallway.

Another fairly short chapter sorry! Meh. Not all chapters can be long, so I don't think Creams character was accurate in this chapter what did you think? I would love to know your opinions and how you think I could improve on characters, just please no flames! XD Next chapter should be longer than this one but no guarantees! Reviews make me happy and encourage me to write and I'm thinking maybe if I just get a sudden flood of reviews I might update twice a day, but again no promises and you need to click that blue button down there! Click it! I dare you ;)

Love ya!

Mwah!
