Chapter 6

Bad blood

List: SonicAnon, Nobody

Thank you so much for my first reviews! I will try my best to attend to the problems you have pointed out, and I hope you will keep reading this story.

To SonicAnon, I've been a hardcore Sonic fan for nearly all my life, and for years I wanted to be recognized for that. Now that I have a PC, I can express my feelings of how much this little blue ball of energy (get it?) has affected my life. I have searched the internet looking for decent Sonic fanfiction, but rarely ever stumble across it. That's why I'm writing this. To satisfy my need for good storytelling and excellent character development. Thank you so much for the reviews, and I hope you continue to enjoy my story. Anyways, here's chapter six!


Sonic looked out the window. Rain was never one of his favorite forms of weather, for it meant that he would be sliding all over the place, and he always caught colds. So today, instead of going out to keep a bored Amy entertained, they were stuck inside. Amy was currently watching a soap opera on the tv, and Sonic could not stand those things. What's the point of it, anyway? He already knew that Sarah would cheat on Jack and instead go for his brother, Alex. The first episode said it all. But, Sonic thought, girls will be girls. He got up from the chair he was sitting in and stretched his legs. He desperately needed to run, and he was willing to be exposed to water of all things, but he didn't want to leave Amy alone with nothing to do. So, he had an idea. He went up to Amy and dropped a small white disk with a blue button on it. "What's this for?" she asked. "It's for emergency's only. Press the button in case any thing happens. I'm going out to the store, and the rain is messing with the service on my phone. I'll be back in a bit." Sonic grabbed his wallet off the counter and ran out the door. Just before Amy could say something else, Sonic ran back in. "Do you have any rain jackets?" he asked. Amy giggled, and pointed to a closet across from the door. Sonic ran to it, grabbed a jacket, and ran back out the door. As Sonic was running, he felt bad for Amy. She was all alone, and with nothing to do. With that thought, Sonic only ran faster. He got to the store, shook off the water from his fur, and walked in. He walked along all the aisles until he saw it: a sign that read, "Games and entertainment". He walked down it, looking for the item he had thought of. Finally, after walking up and down twice, he saw it: a SEGA Genesis. He smiled to himself, grabbed it, and started to walk away. But before he could get to the end of the aisle, someone called his name. "Hey, Sonic! I've been looking for you!" Sonic turned around and groaned. "What do you want, Sally?" Sally Acorn walked up to him and got up right in his face. "What, forgot already? Or are you just that stupid?" Sonic pushed her away and turned around. "You owe me, Sonic. Big time, too, after what you did." Sonic turned back around to face her. "I don't know what you're talking about." Sally laughed. "Really, I'm beginning to think you have no brains. You stood me up, Sonic. Remember, when you said that we 'just weren't meant to be'? Well, you may not remember, but I certainly do." It was Sonic's turn to laugh. "Stood you up? Sally, are you kidding me? I watched you mug somebody on the streets, then you asked me out. Then after that you broke into some one's house and got sentenced to three years in jail. You really think I want to date you after all that?" Sally looked furious. She turned around and walked away. Sonic took one last look at her and walked to the cashier. He paid for the Genesis and ran back to Amy's house. When she heard him open the door, she looked up. "What happened to 'being back in a bit'?" she asked. Sonic just shrugged and replied, "Just ran into some bad blood, that's all. Anyway, I got us something that might cure our terrible disease of boredom." Sonic pulled out the Genesis, and Amy smiled. "Sweet."


It was a couple of hours later, and Sonic and Amy were still tied in Virtua Racer. Sonic was bored, and Amy was half asleep, and rain was still pouring outside. To make matters worse, a bolt of lightning struck a tower in the power grid, causing the entire west side of the city to lose power. Sonic groaned and unplugged the tv. Sonic had expected to see Amy with a disappointed look on her face, but instead saw the opposite. Amy was grinning, and Sonic started to get worried. "You alright over there, Amy?" Amy just looked at him, and continued to smile. All that came out of her mouth were four words: "Go get the pillows." Sonic smiled to. "I see what you're getting at." Sonic ran to all the rooms and got the pillows and blankets and brought them back to the living room. Sonic helped Amy up and began to work on the fort. After half an hour of the fort collapsing and having to put it back up, they finally finished. Sonic helped Amy climb in, and got a lantern. They sat around it, and Sonic got an idea. "You like stories, right?" Amy smiled. "You go first."
