Amy's sisters were up to no good the next day. Because their original plans had severly backfired, the two made amends with one harmonizing goal in view:

Ruin Amy Rose.

How dare their step-sister lie to their mother and go to the dance! After all the Fiona had provided for someone who wasn't even family, and Amy still had no respect for her step-mother! That sort of treachory, this sort of rebellion, had to be taken care of.

Ultimately, though, they were more furious over another fact

Amy Rose had gone to the homecoming dance with Sonic the hedgehog! Outrageous! Why would the most beautiful guy on the planet go to the school dance with Amy? That girl was so unpopular, and her quills were so messy, and she was a diner girl! Sonic would never resolve to someone like that, even if Amy was the last female on the planet! The two sisters concluded one thing: Amy had decieved Sonic.

Definitely. Amy was a deplorable person, shameless in her misleading ways. She hid her conduct well, but now her secret had been discovered, and they would punish her for it.

And what better way could there be than to publicly humiliate her in front of the whole school with the help of the most popular and beautiful cheerleader ever? There was none. Therefore, the evil sisters printed out the email onversations between Sonic and 'Cinderella,' not realizing how their actions would affect the ones they were trying to, they believed, 'protect.' These were presented to Chelby Cummings as they claimed unfounded deceits in order to get her repulsed with Amy's false actions.

"She told us that she was going to steal Sonic away from you, even if it was the last thing she did," cried Gabriella. She was the mastermind behind the procedure, her being the oldest and smartest of the two. (Really, that is not a compliment, as they shared an IQ in very low digits.) She dabbed her damp eyes with a tissue.

Chelby and her two followers didn't realize that the sisters had used an entire bottle of eye-drops to achieve this effect. Chelby wouldn't have cared though, as the knowledge of someone communicating romantically with her boyfriend was insufferable.

Brianna blew her nose dramatically, receiving a practiced look of consolation from her sister and a soft pat on her shoulder. "Our step-sister has always been so jealous of you!"

Gabriella continued, "That's when she invented this whole...'Cinderella' plot. She got a hold of Sonic's email and started this whole affair."

Chelby was incensed.

"We wanted to tell you sooner," the younger one claimed, "but she threatened to kill us. She's such a monster."

The head cheerleader read through the first two pages of the conversations. She'd be up all night looking through these. Pretty much all that Sonic had written had never even been brought up with her. Heck, he never even talked about anything when they were together. The dialogues she read now seemed like the words of a perfect stranger.

"So," Chelby exhaled with a clenched jaw, "she thinks she can break Sonic and I apart, hm?" She flung her hair over her shoulder and narrowed her eyes. "Well, we'll just see about that."

The sisters shared a hidden smirk of success, then continnued their tearful charade.


Much to their excitement, Brianna and Gabriella were asked by the lead cheerleader to participate in her plot to ruin Amy Rose the hedgehog. She sent the youngest of the sisters to the school's spokesgirl and DJ, to whom she gave a message that she had claimed was from Sonic. It was announced throughout the schoolgrounds as a message for Cinderella, in which she was informed that Sonic apparently wanted to meet her after the pep-rally.

Without a doubt, Amy heard this announcement. She was overjoyed with the prospect because it meant that Sonic had accepted her, that he was totally cool with her being his Interent lover. She giggled to herself as she walked down the hall to class that morning, unable to focus on any subjects during classtime.

She was out of period one as soon as the bell sounded. She raced through the halls until she found Knuckles at his locker. She squealed and hugged him until he wasn't able to breathe, the ecstacy overpowering her sense of strength and judgement.

"Hey!" Knuckles yelled, but Amy was already reeling the news to him.

"I talked to him!" she exclaimed, hopping up and down. "Not as Cinderella, but as ME! Better yet, he started talking to me! Heck, I bet he only came to the diner just to have a chit-chat, cause he didn't even finish his coffee! He doesn't hate me, Knuckles! AND we almost KISSED!" she blushed and brought her hands together into a fist and squirmed happily.

"Okay, what the heck are you talking about?"

"Nomad," she hissed quietly.

"Ah. So, you told hiim everything?"

"No, cause he already knew! He called me Cinderella! He knew, Knux! He knew!"

"Wow."

"I KNOW! And he wants to meet me at the pep rally!"

Everything was perfect, just perfect. The news of such a wonderful happening was beyond what Amy had ever hoped for. She barely slept at night that week, too excited for the upcoming occasion where she would finally move forward with the man of her dreams.

Oh, it was just perfect!
