Sonic Prompt

World: The New Game (Sonic 2017)

Couple: Classic Sonic x Amy Rose

Summary: I want an understanding between Classic Sonic and Amy Rose. I think his usual 'attitude' will make him dislike her at first, but seeing how she really is will help him understand that she should definitely be his friend! That being said, I want him to kinda be mean to her at first, before seeing (With a little help from Modern Sonic maybe?) that she's not so bad, considering he hasn't met Classic Amy yet! (This is supposing he only has Classic Tails in the game) Okay, take your time!

Prompt:

Sonic watched as Amy scolded his younger self, and seeing the look in his eyes, he knew that feisty spirit of freedom of his would clash pretty well with Amy's words.

In a slight snicker of being thrown back in time to his usual style, he watched as Classic Sonic stuck his tongue at her, and draped down one eyelid to show his lack of respect for her words, and took off.

This made Amy furious, about to stomp off after him before Sonic finally intervened.

"Woah-ho! Don't rush it, Amy!" He cautioned, moving in front of her and stopping her before her hammer was to come out.

"Ohh! He's just so-… so…Ugh! He makes me furious! Can't he see we're all in this together? He acts like saving the world is a game! A-" she stopped herself, her eyes widening as she withdrew her accusing pointed hand towards Classic Sonic and looked to Sonic.

Realizing her error, she shyly looked away and put her pointer fingers together, withdrawing them in near her. "Sorry… That was inconsiderate of me…"

Sonic just smirked, "What? Comparing me to me? I wouldn't think so." He found her actions kinda charming, but knew that Classic Sonic had now a judgement on her, and in order to break said judgement, he may need to help Amy out a little more…

"Look, if you want my other me to like you, you've gotta calm down a bit."

Amy looked sorrowfully to Sonic, her eyes big and glistening, her lower lip in a tight puppy-dog pout, "He totally hates me… doesn't he?"

Sonic sweatdropped, seeing the awkwardness now that she looked so hurt. "Uhh… I wouldn't say that, but…"

"He'll never want to meet me at this rate!" She threw her hands to her face and started to cry out loud, making Sonic even more nervous as he held out his hands to try and calm her down, motioning them downward and trying to keep up a smile for her.

"Hey! Woah! Calm down.. there, there… Don't jump to conclusions, alright? I have an idea." Sonic winked to her, straightening himself up.

Amy sniffled but turned to him, wiping her eyes. "A-an idea?" She sniffed, "Like what?"

"Well, first. Lose the baby-face." He took her arms and pulled them gently down, so he could see her face and also, indirectly, tell her to chill out and get a hold of herself.

"Just be yourself." He stated, "The cool, uh… slightly awkward, but chill you." Sonic smiled, but was trying to think of something to say to her… not sure what his younger self would really be amazed with, but thinking it a good idea to start by impressing him.

"…Isn't that basically asking me to be a particular something?" Amy raised an eyebrow.

"Don't question my methods." He pointed a finger at her, leaning in, before withdrawing and walking away, waving behind him. "Just impress the kid and you'll be in."

"Impress him… right!" Amy put her hands into tight fists and held them up, determined!

However… It was certain that Sonic didn't mean… what she thought he meant…

Later on the battlefield once more, Amy saw a piece of rock flying towards Classic Sonic.

Sonic's words rang in her mind and she smiled, racing forward and knocking it away.

"Heh!" she flipped her hair around and stood triumphantly in front of him, making him look up and his mouth form a slight 'o' in what looked to be awe in Amy's eyes.

"You see~" she began, haughtily, before leaning down and holding up a finger to Classic Sonic. "I'm not just some girl who needs to be rescued…"

But while she tried to impress, another piece of rock was coming straight at her, and Classic Sonic 'bing'ed a game noise and jumped, grabbing her in her shock and spinning her around.

He finally got his feet back on the ground but now had her above his head, holding her up by her back-end, and racing away from all the chaos.

The wobbling and bumpy ride made Amy dizzy and disoriented, as he was too small to really hold her bridal style, and quite frankly, hadn't learned much about holding women the proper way yet either!

He came to a few winding bends before casting her off him and letting her spin in a twirl away, before Sonic came in at just the right time and caught her dizzy self from falling to the ground. "Easy there!" Sonic stated, pushing Amy back on her feet as she was about to topple over, and helped her remain still by keeping his hands on her back.

He then looked to his younger self, "A little more gentle with the girls there, little me." He corrected, but in a humorous way.

Classic Sonic looked surprised to hear a 'slight scold' from his older self, and folded his arms, glaring.

He certainly didn't like being told how to save someone.

"W-why does this a-always happen to me?" Amy was still pretty dizzy, but shook her head to try and get her balance back. "I try to impress, but end up in distress." She ducked her head down and let her arms fall out in front of her too, looking utterly defeated.

Classic Sonic snickered.

That triggered her anger, as her head shot up in rage.

Sonic's expression changed too, seeing her furious, as she summoned her hammer again and went to storm off and give that punk a lesson!

He quickly grabbed her from behind, stopping her in her tracks, and lifted her off the ground, completely hindering her of any mobility.

Modern Sonic was smart, his experience with her made him know that her appearance certainly didn't match her immense strength, and by taking away that powerful stance with her legs, she would lose some of that swinging power.

"Amy! You're only going to make it worse for yourself!" Sonic warned, seeing as she was turning fierce again.

Amy struggled, but ended up stopping her attempts at release and just huffed out her exhaustion.

Classic Sonic had already dashed away, seeing her lose it, and was far gone by now.

Amy went back to being bummed out, as Sonic looked over her shoulder to see she was done with her temper tantrum, and put her down.

"Now he'll never think I'm cool enough to be his friend…" Amy slouched down to her knees, feeling hopeless at gaining his approval again.

Sonic looked down fondly to his friend, but knew she was in need of a lot of help…

He put his hands to his hips, and shook his head, "Oh, Amy…" He seemed to say that with some charm, not so much a mock.

He smiled the best he could to her, and leaned down to address her, his hand swinging out as he gestured with it while he spoke, keeping the mood peppy and optimistic. "Why not try to be more relaxed and level-headed? Just smile and lot and do your best to help out, he'll see the good in you."

Amy's head swung up and around to look at Sonic, a few signs of a slight cry were noticed but not mentioned, as she rubbed her eyes and got up, turning to him. "You… you think so?"

"Think so?" Sonic knew he needed to comfort her, but couldn't think of a better way than a challenge! "I know so! After all! I am him." He motioned his arms out in a shrug almost, before giving her a light hit on her shoulder.

"Like I said! Just show him the good side of ya! You know… the side that's not so… Grr." He slightly growled out, showing that Amy can be kinda fierce sometimes…

Amy pulled her act together and nodded, hitting the sides of her face and perking up a bit. "Right! I'll show him! I'll show him that it's fate that we'll meet, yet!" she raced to the headquarters, as Sonic just sighed, shaking his head with a smile.

"Don't overdo it… the kid's not much into sympathy…"

A day later, Amy noticed Classic Sonic zipping around and causing mayhem.

Not liking to be coped up with nothing to do, he was being mischievious, snickering in a corner after changing out Tails's screws with Knuckles's grapes, and having Knuckles chew on them and get angry, letting out a big frustrated roar and stomp about; looking for the culprit.

"So.. you like to pick on people, do ya?"

Classic Sonic stopped snickering to turn around and look up.

He wasn't afraid of her, and clearly showed this by his look of distaste and uncaring yawn at her continual attempts at trying to 'tame' him.

Before Amy let out any scolding, she remembered what Sonic had said again, and looked back behind her, thinking of a better strategy then this.

"I..um… always thought a hero was one who helped others?" she began, before looking back to Classic Sonic, who was in a bit of disbelief that she wasn't yelling at him like usual.

"I mean… um…" she put her hands on her knees, leaning down to address him, but trying to be polite and more… quiet about it. "A guy like you should be looking for what's next on the agenda for saving the world! You know?"

The second she thought she was getting to him, he walked up and stared at her, before flicking her nose and dashing away.

"OW!" she straightened up and held her hurt nose, before her anger finally got the better of her.

"YOU…SOOOONNICC!"

In another room, our Modern Sonic was preparing to eat a delicious looking chilidog, before stopping and looking at all the kitchen utensils shaking and the dirt above the headquarters, which was slightly under the surface, shaking and letting some loose ground fall.

He sighed, turning around, "Here we go again…"

He dashed off, eating the chilidog while he did so, knowing his other self might snatch it from him if he didn't, and held a second one… just in case~

Amy had once again confronted Classic Sonic, who continued to look calm and collected, looking to her as if she was just another annoyance that he could maybe have some fun teasing and playing around with.

The second Sonic came around from the other end, he hid behind a corner, and leaned against it in the darkness of that lane, smiling.

He knew full well what was coming next, and knew his little self hadn't experienced a good 'Amy bashing' yet, but not by her infamous hammer this time…

"You're a HERO! Do you think mocking and playing games like this is doing anyone any favors?!" she began, not being able to control her emotions.

"We're believing in you to help save us! Our future, your future! At least little Tails is pulling his weight, but you? You just keep causing trouble for everyone! And why? Cause you're BORED?! Get a grip and remember who you are!"

That last line had caught Classic Sonic's attention.

A moment ago, he had tilted his head slightly to the side with a smile, not caring one bit what this crazy lady was saying, before straightening his head out and blinking his eyes open in a moment of having his heart suddenly pricked.

He rolled his head down and glared at Amy, more offended than anything, before raising an eyebrow to her.

"You heard me! I remember you risking it all for the good of what's right! And all you're doing is playing around and causing who knows what destruction behind you!" She swung an arm out and behind her, the other hand up near her face, and her emotion coming through clearly, especially now that he was paying her more attention.

This sparked some kind of intrigue in Classic Sonic, as he turned to face her, leaning forward with his hands on his hips, and slightly tapping his foot.

He was mad, but he was still keeping up his punk-ish demeanor.

"You run around at the speed of sound, so what? If that means you can't even stop and realize that you could be letting that loose energy out by keeping patrol outside or even trying to find a chaos emerald! Oh, but no… THIS Sonic would rather pull off some stupid pranks that nobody's impressed with!" She huffed her cause out and then folded her arms, turning her body to the side and looking up with her eyes shut. "Some lousy hero you are!"

As she walked away, Classic Sonic finally let out some emotion, and showed his teeth in utter rage at her comments.

Not only was she right, but he couldn't fight her.

There was some kind of guilt forming inside him, and he looked down, away from her with a 'tsk' and ran out.

Modern Sonic tossed a chilidog up in the air, having it spin as he caught it, and did this a few times before whistling and getting Amy's attention.

He caught it for the last time as she turned to see him and walked out of the dark. "You really told him what for."

Amy let out a sigh, and looked sorrowfully down at the ground. "Yeah… but now he's going to hate me for sure… I guess I couldn't help myself… you were really being immature!" She pouted and left that last line as a side comment, but Sonic still heard it, and tilted his head, cheekily.

"Once… was me. Don't get us mixed up, now." He walked around her and then stopped at the direction she had just come from. "You didn't see it, but I certainly did. You were the first person to ever really get through to me about what a hero really means. It's not just all fun and games, sometimes… it's serious business." He tossed the chilidog up in the air again, before catching it and licking his lips, really wanting a bite out of it, but stopped before he could as Amy turned back around.

"You mean… he was impressed I stood up to him?" There was a glimmer of hope in Amy's eyes.

"Uhhh… uh-huh." Sonic put the chilidog down, sighing again. "Well, kinda. You're still only half way down the road there, pal." He teased, doing more tricks in his hand with the chilidog, spinning it around like a twirling stick.

"Hey!"

Sonic froze, catching the chilidog.

"You're going to get chili all over the floor!" Amy scolded, as Sonic just rolled his eyes.

"Some things don't change.." he started walking away.

"H-hey,… where are you going?" Amy side-stepped, trying to see where he was headed.

"I've gotta talk to little me, see if he's permanently damaged by your 'moral standings'." He teased, and dashed off, leaving Amy to her signature, 'OooooOOoooOOOhhh…' as she felt her cause was still hopeless once more.

Classic Sonic was really fed up with Amy, but the things she said were sticking in his mind, and pulling at his heart a little to much for his comfort.

Modern Sonic walked up to him, giving him a slight greeting, before having a bit of a bro-to-bro talk.

Amy walked out to the forest after some time, and Classic Sonic just glared in dislike of her, but in a more silly way, not really showing any malice.

"Heh, heh! You're still pretty torn up from your last encounter with her, huh?" Sonic teased, as Classic Sonic folded his arms, sat down, and looked grumpy as ever…

His head was low against his arms, to where you could only really see his eyes, blinking in their frustrations.

"She really taught you a think or two." Sonic shook his head, before looking off after Amy. "…You know…"

Classic Sonic turned his head to him.

"She really is a good friend of mine."

Classic Sonic snorted a disapproval, shuffling and seeming to be further upset by this stated comment.

"Haha, I know it's not easy to see why right now, but… you'll see." He winked to his friend, having been sitting down with him now, laying back and relaxing, but keeping an arm behind him to lean against so he wasn't too chilled out.

"Amy's… well, Amy's a handful sometimes, but you gotta admire her heart."

Still, Classic Sonic just huffed and ruffled himself further into his grumpy stance, making his quills look messy, as Sonic continued to snicker to himself.

"Look, before you lose complete trust with her, I would like to suggest… a challenge." He lowered a pointer finger to his grumpy self, as Classic Sonic's eyes perked up, and he slowly rolled them towards his friend, breaking out of his grump-look and leaning to his friend with curiosity.

"There is a way to see the real Amy. The reason I keep her around." Sonic explained, before getting up, and striking another signature look of his smile and finger waving, "But it takes strategy… I'll fill you in on how to get it out of her, but you'll have to take it from there."

Classic Sonic bounced up, rolling to his back and then flipping up, before matching Sonic's look, and seeming interested in what this entailed.

Plus, he was bored. And he was awfully in wonder at how his future self could put up with such a party-pooper.

…..Later in the forest~

Classic Sonic had spotted Amy, looking out over the limited view she had near a few trees, that led down to a lower land.

He paused a moment, gripping the tree and looking down and behind him, before shaking his head, and looking determined to find out what it was about this girl that kept his older self around her for so long.

He took a silent breath and walked out.

Amy heard the tiny footfalls and was surprised as she turned around to see Classic Sonic.

"A-ah! Little Sonic!" she looked around, not sure where to go from here.

He made a frown,… but quickly enacted his older self's strategy.

To lure the so-called, 'real her', he had to charm her up a bit, and so he put on a smile and walked up next to her, trying to look friendly.

"O-oh.. are you.. not mad at me anymore?"

He lowered his head, but nodded, letting out a fake chuckle, and looked away.

It was awkward for a moment, before Amy giggled, and his head shot straight up, before looking at her with that 'o' of disbelief as his mouth again.

"I'm so glad! I was worried I'd never see you again!"

The look of pure joy on her face was something that held his eyes… and caused him to stare and search her face a moment.

This was… strange… wasn't she violent and roaring at him all the time?

"I'm sorry. I really shouldn't have gotten so mad at you… I understand that your nature is one of being very playful and mischievous, but I usually thought that was more around bad guys…" she stepped a foot out and leaned on it back and forth, having a cute sway as she looked off into the distance up towards the sky to her right, before laughing again and looking to Classic Sonic.

"I'm really sorry. It's just… when I look at you, I remember all the wonderful adventures and moments I've had with you! And well… when you were mean to me… I guess I just got so upset because… because it kinda ruined those moments for me… you know?" She turned away, before putting a finger to her mouth in thought, and turning to him again.

Now he was completely mesmerized at the transformation this lady had undertaken.

In a matter of simply smiling politely to her, she was now so much kinder, sweeter, and genuine.

His eyes blinked in his confusion and surprise.

"U-uh… well, it's the truth." She put her hands behind her back and looked down, smiling nervously. "I really don't want you to judge our relationship based on what you've seen or heard… because… I really do still want to meet you, Sonic. And I really want you to meet me too…" she turned to him, "It's fate! After all! Hehe~"

Her giggle and sudden excitement, turning to him and hopping a little towards him made him step back and his hands move back to balance himself with his reaction to her advance, but he couldn't help but be in awe at how… how…

Cute this girl was turning out to be…

Did she really admire him that much?

"Hmm? What? Don't understand?"

He shook his head, being sincere about the situation.

"Hmm.. let me think." She leaned up a moment, before clapping her hands, "Ah-ha! I know!"

She giggled again and rushed over to his side, sitting down and making him nervous as she tucked her dress down and laid on the grass near him.

She patted the spot next to her, inviting him to sit too.

He really didn't want to be so close to this girl, but he ended up remembering the strategy, and reluctantly, plopped down.

Still, his head was up to the side, opposite of her, and his eyes were closed. Distancing himself from her in a body-language way.

"Still being the cool-kid, huh?" she teased, before looking up at the sky again. "I remember being so amazed at how you would be so brave as to always do the right thing… even when no one else would…"

Sonic's eyes shot open, and he turned to look at her, slowly though, and in increments.

She closed her eyes, reminiscing, "I still remember seeing you for the first time… Hehe! You were so cool! And very handsome." She nodded her head.

Classic Sonic stared before his face turned to one of pride, and then looked up with a haughty smile on his face, eyes closed as she flicked his nose with his thumb, as if saying, 'Of course! I'm irresistible!'.

She laughed again, before continuing, "You would save anyone who ever had need of you… and you would do so in a heartbeat! Literally! It really made me admire you a lot."

She turned to him with a pleasant smile, that Classic Sonic could see a glimmer of what his older self had meant… about who she really was.

He searched her eyes and saw nothing but kindness, and a good heart

"I hope this means you won't regret meeting me… or even try and dodge the encounter because…" she got up again, startling him slightly as he got up to follow her movement.

"Because… I really do like you a lot.. Sonic.. The Hedgehog."

She spoke into her hand, as if trying to hide her blush, before turning around and shaking her head. "Oh man! How embarrassing! Hehe! We barely even know each other! Well, you don't know me very well, but I certainly know you! Hehehe~"

Something loud and disturbing beat in Sonic's little heart, and it rapidly increased as he noticed her smile get bigger and bigger, and her laughter grow louder and louder, and almost wished it wouldn't end.

He brought her so much joy in memory… he didn't understand it, but he definitely understood what his heart was saying.

She calmed down and nodded to him, before turning to walk away. "I… I hope you'll treat her kindly… Sonic."

As she departed, Classic Sonic's face turned grim, as he held out a sorrowful hand to her, but couldn't seem to let himself stop her.

He looked around quickly, before letting an open-smile cross his face and dashing to retrieve what he had seen.

Zipping in front of her in a blue blur of light, he held out a simple, but beautiful looking pink flower to her, with little dew drops making it shine in the evening light.

She gasped, and leaned down to receive his gift, as he did a little showy pose for her, and left her with a 'handsome' signature look.

"Oh, you really are a charmer, aren't you?" she teased him, before looking at the flower thoughtfully,… thinking…

"…Does this mean… you still want me as a friend?" She asked, her face showing her hope for the answer to remain a yes.

Classic Sonic's expression changed to a softer one, something he wasn't used too doing, being gentle and sweet around people.

He took a big breath and bowed to her, before winking and doing another pose before dashing off.

Amy got up, and watched after him, seeing he had pulled out a chilidog and started to eat it too.

The challenge came with a reward for completing it… it seemed.

"See? Told ya it was easy."

Amy looked behind her to see Modern Sonic walk out, winking to her as he noticed her slight tears from being given a flower and accepted by his past self once more.

"O-oh?" she wiped her eyes, "I.. I didn't even notice I was.."

Sonic chuckled and moved a hand up to her face, using the palm of his hand to wipe the remaining water out of her eyes. "Why do you always cry? It's a little embarrassing, honestly." He teased.

She giggled, liking his sudden show of affection, before he leaned back and put his hands on his hips, shaking his head. "That kid… will he ever learn? But I suppose you know now,… he's cool with ya." Sonic winked again, as Amy's entire face lit up with approval.

"Yes! I'm still his friend!" She struck a triumphant pose, before Sonic had to ruin the moment with-

"Really? You're this happy for being in the friendzone?"

Amy's whole being looked like it had been shot through and shaken by lightning.

Sonic laughed again, "Well, at least your happy." He continued to tease her, making her get close to her breaking point.

"Why are you being so mean now…" she pouted, whining out the complaint as he held his arms out to excuse himself.

"Hey, I was just letting you know the current situation. But the more he comes to know you… I think the more he'll stick around." Sonic smirked and gave another wink to her, as Amy got up and dashed over to him, stopping right in front of him.

"Oh! Don't act like you're the one 'sticking around', Sonic! Admit it! I'm the only girl who'd ever put up with you! Hmph." She turned around with a puffed up cheek, and then looked lovingly back to the flower in her hand, turning it slightly so she could see the dew, which sparkled like diamonds at this angle…

Sonic looked down at it, before moving his eyes up to see her face, and smiled again.

He plucked the flower from her hand and surprised her by placing it right next to her ear, using her headband to keep it in place, and putting the stem through her hair so it would hold.

She turned to look at him as he admired the positioning of it a moment, a hand up to his chin, before stating, "Heh, beautiful!" and then returning to his normal stance.

"You told me it was fate, right? Well, if it really is fate, then maybe you are the only woman who would put up with me."

Amy held her silence, awestruck by what he had just said.

"Buuuut~" a wicked grin suddenly formed as he held a finger up, and started to calmly walk away. "You also called me a charmer! And that means that you're not the only one who finds me…" he turned around, striking a flirty pose, "irresistible."

"Grr… SOOOONNNICC! IF I FIND OUT YOU'VE BEEN TWO-TIMNG ME WITH OTHER WEMON I'LL… IIIII'LLL-!"

"Whoops! Triggered the 'Grr'!"

Sonic dashed off as Amy stormed after him, but all the while, a playful and mischievous smile on his face, almost thrilled to be chased after, even if she did look a little scary…
