In Amy's house, all you could hear was the clanking of Blaze doing the dishes. Cleaning seemed to be the only thing that kept her calm during her turbulent thought processes. She hadn't seen Amy since they got intimate. Once Blaze woke she was gone. She could only hope Amy would return home that night, but she still didn't show up. Now it was the night of the day after she left, and Amy still had yet to show up. She's tried calling but Amy hasn't answered. This worried Blaze as she felt maybe she pushed Amy away. She probably can't even think of me the same, she doesn't even want to be in the same house as me anymore… Amy's never been gone this long until now.

Once Blaze finished the dishes, she went to the room to relax on the bed for a while and think about what could've happened between them. This didn't last very long as she heard a knock on the door. She rushed up out of the bed to answer, knowing it had to be Amy, but when she opened the door, it was a black hedgehog with red streaks in his quills.

"Who are you?" Shadow raised a brow seeming hostile towards Blaze. "Why are you here and where's Amy?"

Blaze was intimidated by this hedgehogs presence and wasn't sure how to answer. "I SAID where's Amy?" Shadow was beginning to back Blaze up into the house using his menacing stare.

Blaze wasn't sure whether she should tell him, knowing Amy had her enemies and no one should be trusted around here. "I… don't know…" Blaze looked down at her feet, scared to look Shadow straight in the eyes.

"Stop with the shy act and tell me where she is!" Shadow was beginning to get angrier and angrier by the minute.

This finally irked Blaze as she remember she didn't want to be the submissive cat she was in Spagonia. She knew she had to stand up for herself. She straightened her posture and looks Shadow dead in the eye. "I. Said. I. Don't. Know." Blaze saw Shadow's face perk up in homicidal rage.

"Don't play this stupid game with me. Tell me now or I'm ending your life!" Shadow held Blaze by her collar, ready to pick her up by it.

Blaze then gained the upper hand by grabbing Shadow's face and headbutting him. It was effective enough to knocking Shadow back for a minute, but he wasn't knocked out. "I'm not an enemy of Amy's! I'm here to stay under Amy's permission!"

"Whatever…. I don't even care about your purpose here anymore. You're wasting my time." Shadow was ready to walk out in search of Amy.

"Wait! Who are you?" Blaze asked before letting this strange man go after Amy.

"Pfft… how about you mind your fucking business." Shadow then quickly walked out into his car. A few seconds later, he was driving away. Blaze was worried on whether or not she should've of stopped him or not.

Whats going on?

Blaze closed the front door and turned around to look at the mess that was made from the fight. Everything was just so chaotic and not making sense to her. She knew she didn't want to meddle with Amy's 'job' but at the same time, she was incredibly worried. She didn't even know where to go if she actually tried to find out what was going on.

Amy can handle herself… She tried to convince herself this was the case, as it always was. This was none of her business, anyways…

Amy's POV

"You should be grateful, Amy. Only the greatest are allowed to associate with me." Espio grabbed Amy's chin and looked her in the eyes. "I know what type of power you have over Station Square, the thing is I want Station Square all to myself." Amy turned her face away from Espio, turning red from anger.

"Spread the word to you people that they should now be loyal to me. And I don't quite trust you, either, so you're just going to be one of my drug peddlers before I make you do anything big." Espio then blinked and pretended to be in awe, "Wait! You're basically just starting all over! Just like a rookie again!" Espio laughed at Amy, knowing he just mentally shattered one of the biggest criminals ever.

"Amy, all great things have an end. You didn't think you were gonna control Station Square forever, right?"

"...Whatever." Amy was ashamed but tried to hide it. She was powerless against Espio right now. Most of the people she had on her side had submissed to Espio out of fear. And after seeing what he had done to Sonic, Amy no longer felt like fighting back. She almost felt like just giving up. Espio said this was a good thing, but she knew she was just going to be a slave to his empire until she was no longer useful.

Espio beckoned for one of his people to bring him a large bag of white powder cocaine.

"I want this whole bag sold by next Friday. If you can't do it by then, you will face the consequences."

"What about Knuckles?" Amy worriedly turned back to her friend and looked back at Espio.

"Don't worry, I have another job for him. He's going to help me smuggle this to other cities from now on." Espio wickedly looked at both of them.

"I'm capable of so many things, Amy. If you even think about turning your back on my empire you will regret it." Espio turned to leave and his loyal entourage of gangster followed. Gangsters that Amy had worked with before Espio ever even made himself known. People she thought were on her side.

"I fucking hate him! What the hell are we gonna do now, Amy!" Knuckles kicked at the ground and started pacing

"Nothing." Amy sounded nonchalant and began to walk towards Sonic.

"Nothing!? What the hell do you mean!" Knuckles was beginning to get irritated by Amy's seemingly careless attitude in the situation they were in.

Amy didn't reply, and began to hold Sonic in her lap. She was sadly looking at the unconscious blue hedgehog until Knuckles walked up to her.

"What the hell do you mean!" Knuckles repeated, wanting an answer.

"Knuckles… it's over" Amy sighed. "All great things come to an end…" She picked up Sonic and started walking to the truck, leaving Knuckles in awe.

"Amy…" Knuckles looked hopeless after seeing Amy had given up.

"I was tired of it all anyway. So much shit on my shoulders. I can't even walk down the fucking street without somebody's kid getting scared. I'm fucking tired of living like this! I rather just start dealing again…" Amy got Sonic in the passenger seat and hopped in before slammed the door. "Are you fucking coming or not?" Amy yelled out the window.

Knuckles looked angrily disappointed in how easily Amy had given up like that.

"Never thought you'd give out like this… so fucking weak… I'll find my own way home."

Amy first looked hurt but then nodded, "Whatever. Fuck you then."
