Chapter 3: Journey
The three had quickly left the hut and made their way to the town exit.
They didn't make it very far,however,as Sora quickly caught up with
them just as they were about to leave.
"Sonic,do you have to leave...now?"Sora asked sadly.
"Well,not really..."Sonic said.
"Sonic the angel isn't going to wait."Knuckles said coldly.
"Oh...master told you to go,I understand."Sora sighed.
"We can stay another day."Sonic snapped at Knuckles
"We will leave today Sonic,no exceptions."Knuckles barked.
"He's right Sonic,if we're going to get to Amy before she's killed we
have to hurry."Tails said.
"Look guys I have something good here,"Sonic said,pointing his head
over,"Can't we just stay one more day?"
Sora obviously caught the message quicker then Knuckles and Tails,as
she turned a deep red and grinned at the floor.
"Fine,stay here with your girl,"Knuckles scowled,"Tails and me will
save Amy,you can stay here making a pig of yourself.
Knuckles walked away and Tails didn't do so much as hesitate to follow,
but he stopped once he was a few feet away and stared at him
"You know Sonic,I thought you were noble enough to put others before
yourself,"Tails called back,his stare now turning into a harsh
glare,"but if a close friend like Amy isn't as important as some girl
you might have feelings for then I guess your no much of a hero."
Tails dissapeared into the trees,leaving Sonic both angry and unhappy.
"You know he is right."Sora said,walking up to him.
"But I never have many good things to hold on to in my life."Sonic
sighed.
"You'll know I'll always be here."Sora said
"Yeah,yeah I know,after I save Amy I'll come right back for you."Sonic
assured her.
He began to walk off but stopped after he heared a scream come from
further in the villiage.Sonic and Sora exchanged looks and ran to
where the sound came from.It was indeed,as Sonic feared.DemonKnux
was there,in the open,his teeth deep within a a girl hedgehog in the
age of 16,feating upon her blood.The rest of her family lay on the
ground,already dead.Once DemonKnux finished with his current meal,he
tossed her aside,Sonic saw she was still breathing and made a move
to save her.DemonKnux quickly spotted him but made no move to try and
harm him,he awaited patiently for Sonic to take her corpse back.
Sora immediatly tended to her wounds as Sonic confronted the demon
echinda.
He licked his lips,savoring the tender blood.
DemonKnuckles:Ah yes,the blood of a virgin,the most delicious kind,most
demons don't drink blood,they prefer the meat.I might as well try it,
I'm sure your filthy blood won't taste so good.
Sonic put on a huge burst speed and soared into the demon,punching him
in the face. The demon fell backward for about a second,but respiled
with a huge punch to Sonic's gut,sending him soaring backwards and into
a tree.There was a huge sickly *CRACK* on impact. Sonic was unable
to move,but in position he was in he could see the town elders making
their way over to the demon with their spell books.
Sonic was certain they would do a better job then he did,but he also
knew they stood no chance.And he was correct,in a matter of seconds
he saw their now horribly disfigured bodies hit the cold dirt ground.
DemonKnux walked slowly over to Sonic and picked him up by the neck.
DemonKnux:You hurt me...I haven't felt pain for years,I shall do you
the pleasure of a warrior's death,prepare for the reaper hedgehog.
Before he could make his move their was a brilliant flash of light that
blinded both of them.He heared a horrible scream and knew that Demon
Knuckles wasn't very pleased with this,he began thrashing around,
hurling balls of psionic force everywhere.Once Sonic's eye sight
returned he saw he was being dragged away by Sora,in a desperate
attempt to save both of their lives.He tried to stand but his head
bashed off a rock.After Sora stopped running to catch her breath they
were in the forest,but the villiage was still slightly visible,meaning
they were still in danger.
Sora was chanting some sort of magical enchantment and Sonic felt his
bones heal. He stood up,but was still weak,so he had to support himself
with a nearby tree.
"He's going to be here in about a minute,I can't be saved but you can,
here take this,"Sora said,pouring some powder in Sonic's hand," If he
get's close to you just throw it in his eyes,the flash should blind him
momentarily..and I have something else for you."
She pressed him against the tree and kissed him.Sonic,though trying
hard not to,grinned broadly.
"I can't just leave you here."Sonic said after recovering.
"Sonic,my destiney is to serve my master,it is my duty to serve the
servants of the gods,I will do everything for them,including dying."
Sora said,trying to hurry him along.
"If you die I'll find a way to bring you back!"Sonic scowled.
"Don't be ridiculous Sonic,it is a honnor to die for the master,now
hurry along."Sora said,pratically kicking him,as DemonKnux came into
view.
Sonic made a dash for it and didn't stop until he heared a scream,but
he didn't go and save her,he couldn't.He ran on,rubbing a tear from his
eye.
The three had quickly left the hut and made their way to the town exit.
