Here's chapter 25! Thank you for the reviews! You have no idea how happy I was when I read them! Anyway, I wanted to talk to you guys about summer. As the school year is coming to an end for me on the 14th of this month, I have decided to be more active during the summer this year. That means that I won't be in the house much since I will be out almost all day and won't be back until late at night. With me not being home all day means no time to write stories! :( Trust me…this isn't up to me. My mom is making me go to this sports camp at a university and as much as I'd rather stay at home and write, I do want to stay in shape by the time high school starts because I will start my freshman year! I'm excited yet super nervous! Do any of you guys mind telling me your high school experience or are still currently attending? Or maybe you are about to start high school? I need to know what to expect in my freshman year so I'm prepared. Back to the camp thing…I will only have the first 2 weeks of June as break at home and as the beginning of July starts, that's where I will be very busy. But I'll try to update once in a while. So that's just a heads up. Anyway, enjoy chapter 25!

7th period came to an end and everyone went home. Amy was walking home alone since she didn't feel like walking with her friends. She really needed to think some things through for her final year at high school which took a terrible turn. She had so much to worry about. Taylor, the secret about Sonic, going to the dance with Sonic, and talking to her parents soon about her past. She didn't know what to start with first and what should be the end. Of course Taylor was going to be the first worry. But the second? Third? Fourth?

"How am I going to deal with all of this? I know Sonic is going to be furious with me if he finds out about his real birth parents…especially if I know. Taylor is a creep and he needs to be thrown in jail but that won't be easy if I have no evidence of his crimes. I have to go on a date with Sonic. Wait…not a date. I think he likes me though. I sort of do have a little crush on him. My mom and dad have to know sooner or later. Ugh! Life stinks!" Amy yelled with frustration.

Amy yelled so loud that a certain chipmunk heard a couple of feet away. She turned around and spotted Amy walking the same direction she was going to. She walked towards Amy and smiled.

"Hey Amy. It's been a while." Sally greeted.

"Hey Sally! It has been a while. What have you been up to?" Amy asked.

"Oh nothing. Just been busy lately that's all. Anyway, I heard you yelling. Is something wrong?"

Amy sighed. "Yeah. I've been having so much problems lately. I don't know what to do…"

"Have you talked to your friends about it?"

"Um…well, sort of?" Amy replied, not sure how to respond.

"Hm…well, all I can tell you is that some problems aren't as complicated as they seem unless you make it complicated. I'm pretty sure some of your problems aren't that bad. Just fix the problems you know you can fix and save the complicated ones for last." Sally advised.

"Hm…you're right! I never thought of it that way. Thank you so much Sally! I have to get home now." Amy remarked, hugging Sally. In a couple of seconds, Amy had already disappeared leaving Sally alone.

"You're welcome." Sally muttered.

With Sonic

Sonic was with the gang at the park relaxing. They all agreed going to the park right after school to spend some time together and talk about the events that are going on.

"So why didn't Amy come with us?" Blaze asked.

"She said she wanted to be alone and think some things that are going on with her right now." Sonic replied, laying down.

"That poor girl has had enough problems so why does she still have more?" Shadow asked, shaking his head.

"She's kept a lot of things to herself and I guess what went around came around…" Tails responded.

"Why can't she just admit she needs help from us?" Rouge asked, a bit upset.

"She's very independent. Trust me. After sort of living with her, she's been able to do everything on her own. She hated boys and I guess that's what made her strong," Sonic explained. "But what keeps on bothering me about her is that she's hiding something from me. Every time I see her, she gets very stiff with me and her eyes show pity. I just don't know what it is."

"Have you tried asking her?" Knuckles asked.

"Yeah. But she always denies it. That's why I stopped asking her."

"What inspires me about her is that after everything she's been through, she's still so enthusiastic and very sweet to everyone. Most people remain traumatized and they change completely." Cream spoke.

"So Sonic…when are you going to ask Amy out?" Silver asked, grinning.

"W-What are you talking about?" Sonic nervously replied.

"Don't act dumb. We all know you like her." Shadow exclaimed, rolling his eyes.

"You know, she likes you as well." Blaze mentioned, smiling.

"She does?" Sonic asked, surprised.

"Yup. I ship you two. You guys are cute together." Blaze replied.

"You should totally ask her out!" Cream cheerfully exclaimed.

"I'm pretty sure she's not interested in relationships….I never hear her talk about dating." Sonic sighed.

"I think we can do something about that…" Rouge muttered, loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Uh oh…what are you planning?" Sonic asked, concerned.

"That you don't need to worry about. My plan isn't going to work until a few more months pass." Rouge responded.

"Anyway…did you know that Taylor is our new Acc. ELA teacher? The one that torture Amy?"

"WHAT!?" Everyone yelled in sync.

"Yup…he's out for revenge. He told me right in my face." Sonic remarked.

"Woah…what are we going to do? Amy can't be alone at school than…" Silver spoke.

"We're just going to have to be with her everywhere she goes until school ends." Blaze suggested.

"Alright. This is operation protect Amy." Sonic exclaimed.

"Agreed." Everyone else said in sync.

A/N: Here's another chapter! It may not be that important but the operation protect Amy will be. OH! I also wanted to let you guys know that I came up with a new story called Enemies to Best Friends and I really suggest you guys reading it. I think it's somewhat unique in my opinion and it's just fun. I hope you guys have the time to read it. Enjoy this chapter and the next one will hopefully be up soon! BYE!
