chapter 4 sonic`s oblivion

sonic,shadow.tails,cream and cheese are trying to get into station square without being caught,they are taking an out of the way country path to try and avoid major roadways where they would be recognised.sonic and shadow are running at medium pace and tails is flying with cream hanging on.

"i never knew you could be so stubborn faker"shadow was enraged at not getting the rest he so badly needed.sonic replied"watch your mouth!i just hate kids.how can you stand her?" "you must have been a kid once as well so give her a chance." sonic held a long pause till he spoke again. "its better for everyone if she goes to amys.shes a girl,she can handle cream better then we can"

"so cream where did you get cheese?" tails was`nt sure if he should engage in conversation while flying as it might tire him out quicker.but he was intrested to learn about cream "i found his egg somewhere in the forest and i took it because i never saw its mum and dad.i called him cheese cos his egg smelt like it" tails heard a squeek which was cheese who was looking up at him as though he had been listining to the talk "i told cheese everything my mum and dad taught me so he`s really clever for a chao!"she petted cheese who had a visible grin on its face,no doubt proud of its extensive knowledge "oh so your mum and dad gave you home schooling?" "yeah,they taught me hundreds of things like numbers,foods,how to clean the barns,how to chop wood,clean the home.." "what kinds of animals did you have on the farm?" "mostly chickens but we had a small herd of sheep and milky the cow!did you know you can get cheese from cows?!" "wow!no! i dont know much about these sort of things since i grew up nearer the city,hey!have you ever seen the city?" "no"

cream and tails were flourishing in conversation while sonic and shadow were being reservedly quiet.about quarter of a mile away from the city tails said to sonic between breaths "can..we..take..a..brea..ther?" sonic looked confused "why?we`re almost there?" tails fell to the ground anyway and sonic was helpless to stop and wait.everyone was just sitting down in the rocky,sandy field totally off-guard when suddenly a giant blinding flash lighted up the midday sky.it was a thunder strike not far from everyone.

sonic complained "grrrr! too loud" everyone else was looking at the spot the thunder had hit in confusion. shadow asked "whats that?" tails answered "thats a magic ring!they`re the coolest natural phonomenom.it`s a compressed ring of pure energy.they have the power to double your biorythm!" shadow still felt unanswered he asked"in english?" "..sigh.. they can make you as twice as fast " "wow neat! i,m gonna try it" sonic said "DONT.we need them for emergencies.they are extremly hard to get hold of.they only appear where lightning strikes,inside whirlwinds,at the core of earthquakes,the core of planets and places where energy builds up and places where people are unlikely to go." cream spoke up"you mean like up in mountains or deep underground?" tails said "thats right" cream boasted"i have a few..." sonic shouted "what!where?" cream pulled her gloves off and they were covered in gold rings.she pulled one off and sonic muttered "ho-h-how you manage to get them so small?!and where did you get them from?!" "easy,just pull them to make them bigger or squeeze them to make them smaller.i found them up in the hills near the forest,i explored a lot. how do you make them,make you go faster?i never managed that?" sonic opened up her palm and said"you see that line just below your fingers?" cream nodded "well you place the ring on that and squeeze it untill it dissapears"

shadow asked "how about we all use a ring to get into the city really fast without being seen?" sonic said "you make it sound so easy...listen,using rings takes years of practise.you have to focus as hard till your brain hurts.And some people`s bodies might not handle the rush or could get addicted" shadow said in a cocky tone "whatever mister self control" sonic gave him an evil stare then said "listen rookie i have a plan.i`ll use a ring and give the cops the run round the city while you guys get cream to amy`s without being seen" everyone nodded then got a bit closer to the city before sonic said "take your time.."he lifted the ring up and as his clenched fist squeezed the ring light emmitted,engulfing everyone. as soon as everybody could see again all they saw of sonic was a transperent blue line leading into the city.

tails leaded the group through the streets as he knew station square best.he was very cautious,peeking around every corner making sure the coast was clear.this was slowing the group down so shadow said"being a bit cautious are`nt you?" he said"we have to. you stick out like a sore thumb compared to all the people in the streets" shadow asked couriously"why is there not a lot of animals,you know like us going about?" tails said "just is,nt a lot of us in general" when tails walked up to a glass double door at a tall concrete building he said"finnaly here" he swung the frictionless door open and run up a square pattern of very clean stairs. cream said to no one in general "awful clean is,nt it" a few more floors up tails said "you have to be rich to live here" "wow! is amy rich?" "yeah,always buying things" tails rang a doorbell on a floor level somewhere in the middle.shadow was still running up the stairs but once he heard the bell he sheepishly backtraked.

after a short wait the door opened an inch and a pair of eyes were peeking out and a voice said "is sonic there?" tails said "no is that you amy??" the door opened fully and it was no other then rouge! tails said "what are you doing here ? robbing amy ?" she said snobbishly "nooo! i need a place to stay and i`ve still got to get my paycheck and..."she stopped when she saw shadow facing away from her,she guessed he had,nt forgotten about that ultimate lifeform bussines."you can come in i,m sure amy would,nt mind" tails said while walking in"where is amy anyway?" rouge said"she`s uhh at a... " she saw cream and cheese come through the door.she had,nt noticed them before.she crouched down to her and said in a cutesy voice "helooo! you`re a new face! whats your name?" "i,m cream and this is cheese"she raised her chao up from off the ground and rouge tickled it`s cheek "so cute!" the choa giggled. shadow had walked past them during all this and he sat down on a couch next to tails. rouge asked everyone now vacated in the living room"what are you all doing here anyway?another world crisis?" tails said "to sonic it is... we have to get a place for cream to stay and we are`nt particular babysitters,you think amy would mind?" rouge said quickly"ask her when she gets here" tails demanded "tell us where she is.what are you trying to hide?" rouge looked around then said "promise not to tell sonic? she`s at an interview with a magazine" tails gave a funny face "what about??" rouge confessed"she tells magazines she`s sonics boyfriend.where did you think she got all her money?she`s been doing this forever!" tails leaned back on the chair holding his stomach,howling with laughter.everyone else could`nt help but join in. once he had finished he said"oh my god! sonic is gonna kill her!" "NO!you promised not to tell him!" "ok,ok..." shadow said "speaking of sonic.." everyone looked to see he was facing the tv and sonic was on a news report.he was running through the streets being chased by helicopters and patrol cars,at a speed fast for him.thanks to the ring.

not soon after they had all tuned in he had gone.he was nowhere on the tv and the bulletin read";wanted;sonic the hedgehog;wanted;shadow the hedgehog if you have any information inform gun authorities immediatly." just as everyone had read these the door burst open and sonic came tumbling through "boo!" rouge said "you had better not have lead the police to here!" "nice to see you too,see me on the telly? you better have taped it so i can watch it" rouge said "you fancy yourself too much" sonic just grinned before asking "wheres amy?"

everyone looked around the room trying to stall an answer but rouge spoke up "oh! umm.. she`s on ahhh training course for a a n-nurse exam" sonic did,nt know what to make of thier odd behaviour so he just trusted her answer although he never knew amy was a nurse?.... "can the child of satan stay here tonight?"sonic expected the usaual defending remark to come from cream but nothing was heard. rouge started to get worried "creee-am?" sonic realised what had propally happened so he just rubbed his head with his hands sighing. rouge was getting worried,looking in all the rooms for her untill the last room was amys bedroom.she opened it,dreading god knows what. she screamed at the sight of cream in a pile of amy`s crumbled clothes,pulled out from drawers. rouge began stuttering,not quite sure what to say.sonic calmed her by saying "it`s all right i`ll take care of it.i can clean up at supersonic speeds" sonic lifted cream up from all the clothes and put her aside by rouge who said "she`s gonna be home in like 5 seconds!you wont manage to clean it up fast enough!" sonic said to cream "cream,give me a ring" "no way!they`re mine! i`ll only use them for emergencies" "oh! OOHHH!! so when amy gets here and see`s all her $1000 pound hats all over the place,she`s gonna whip out her hammer and bash everything in sight!and with a mess like this you`ll get smashed into oblivion. there wont be a house standing.thats an emergency!" the front door was making cliclking noises "thats her! give me the ring!!!" cream yanked her glove off then tugged a ring off her finger then ran back to the living room with rouge.they closed the door behind them and a bright light emitted from the crack in the door,which stopped just as the front door opened and everyone else had sat down.amy ran through with magazines in one hand and a big bag in the other. she saw tails,shadow and an unknown girl with a chao and she put the items behind her back.tails said "what was that?" amy whispered something which nobody could hear then rouge said "it`s okay i,ve already told them" amy said okay then but DONT tell sonikku!" she threw magazines to everyone and had her on the front cover.while everyone was flipping the pages amy asked "hey?does anyone know why so many cops are outside?" everyone just hummed something that sounded like yeah. some of the captions in the interview were like "he`s soooo romantic" or "we`re soulmates!" or even "he`s a tiger in the sack!" amy walked over to her bedroom door and said "i,m just gonna put some new dresses i bought" tails stood up (sonic was still in her bedroom remember)"NO! dont!" amy looked puzzled "what?why not?" tails got desperate "errr! be-be-because you l-look good enough in what you`ve got on?" amy looked even more puzzled then before then said "um ok.thanks!"before walking into the room. everyone listened intensly for the slightest noise but just heard the door opening and amy emerging in a new outfit. tails said"sonic`s gonna kill you when he see`s this!" "NO!you cant tell him!how else am i gonna make a living?!" "ok i wont tell him if you look after cream for the night" "who?" amy looked around and assumed it was the little girl holding a chao "helloo!!"she said in the same annoying voice that rouge used"are you cream?and who is this?" "this is cheese the chao." amy turned to tails and shadow "you`re treating me like a hotel!rouge is already staying here.there`s only so far my generousity will go..." tails but in "so does that mean she can stay?" "well,yeah.but.." "great!lets go shadow" tails and shadow departed quickly. amy moaned "grrr!those big meanies!" rouge said "oh wait! how are they gonna get home?! guns after them....oh no wait , i,m thinking of sonic" "sonic?what is he with them or somethi.." "no.no.i got mixed up with whatisname,shadow." "oh yeah,i noticed he`s alive.. "amy turned to cream "..you`ll have to sleep on the sofa tonight,rouge`s on the spare bed and she`s too big for the sofa .that okay?" "yeah but can i get something to eat?i,ve had a busy day" amy was going over to the fridge and rouge got up as well and said "i,m off to bed" amy and cream(and cheese) were raiding the kitchen for some grub.amy asked"d`you want some cheese on toast?" cream dismissed the offer and asked "no thanks have you got any carrot cake?" "you are so lucky! i`ve got half a cake left.what does your chao want to eat?" "he just loves cocunuts or anything with sugar in it" "no cocunuts but i,ve got some chocolate.we can get some proper food in the morning" they carried the food through to where cream was sleeping and turned the telly on,"oh look theres something about sonic and shadow!"amy said. "i hope shadow gets home alright,i wonder where sonic is tonight..." cream instantly shouted "I DONT KNOW."

the blue hedgehog in question was still under amys bed!impatiently waiting for everyone to go to sleep so he could sneak out.shadow and tails had made it out the city by combining thier speed and flying skills to avoid being seen,thet`re making light of sonics situation as they walked a deserted road towards tails`s not so faraway hideout. "watch this,sonic`ll fall asleep under there or something"shadow let out a hearty laugh before saying back "mind you,he got to see amy get changed,probally had a wank under there!" the two animals were in hysterics before wiping the tears of laughter away from thier eyes.

amy and cream were up into the late hours of the night watching tv,talking about creams ex-farm,her chao and amy told her all about the gang,eggman and had just asked her"so tell me cream,what was your mum and dad like?" "oh they were really bossy and strict,they would never have let me own a chao.i had to keep cheese hidden all the time in the barn" cheese was asleep on the table which all the junk food was on.it sleep on a lone pillow with a dishcloth for a blanket.amy said. "it`s soooo cute!i dont know how your mum and dad could,nt let you own something so cute!oh yeah , and they home schooled you did`nt they? what was that like?I never even went to school" "they taught everything i needed to know about living on the farm,cleaning,milking,chopping wood,words and stuff" "they must have worked you pretty hard!" "they had to,to keep the farm running. well i,m tired can i goto sleep now?" amy wanted to talk about creams parents a bit more but she needed the sleep.amy was going to take cream shopping tommorrow to buy some clothes. amy turned off the light switch and went to her bed,after about ten or so minutes of sleeping,sonic decieded she would be fully asleep now and he could sneak out.he was`nt used to going slow and was frustrated at being there so long. sonic lifted himself sssllowwwllyy from under the bed and tip-toe-ed towards the door.he looked back at amy who was asleep sucking her thumb. "aaawwww! i wonder if she`s a heavy sleeper?"sonic slapped his hand over his mouth then sealed his lips shut tight before thinking""oh shit! did i just say that out loud?!"" amy started tossing and turning making some mumbling noises one would when dreaming . sonic thought about what he would say if amy woke up.good thing the light was off.sonic just got the hell out of there and saw a light on,then a toilet flush"it must be cream where am i gonna hide?!!!" creeaaak was the sound of the door opening and cream shuffled a pair of amy`s slippers back to the sofa while sonic watched from above.he had leaped to the ceiling and streched all his limbs to stay up :) .he fell softly onto the floor then dashed out the front door as quickly and quietly as he could.

once sonic had ran onto the streets he started laughing to himself loudly,he had hidden from cream "why?" he figured he wanted to show off,even though nobody saw him! .he was,nt to worried about the noise he was making laughing,he thought for sure that GUN would be off his case by now.and it was night time he took off towards home speedily as there was no point in staying about here.he navigated skillfully through the streets and he did`nt see nobody,but unexpectantly when he was zooming down a pitch black highway there was a massive bang which made sonics ears ring.he looked behind him to see some blue smoke.he walked up to it and touched it. it was hot to the touch but looked extremely cold.

"how fast was i going?" sonic muttered under his breath.he came to the conclusion that he had broken the sound barrier.he was about to take off when he heard "hhhuummmmmm" that noise lingered somewhere in the back of sonics mind,and the floodlights coming from it looked so familiar. it was another gun apache, and it looked like a deadly war machine with big canisters at the back and a shitload of missiles attached."sonic the hedgehog you are wanted for... sonic rudely but in "what for?!! noise pollution??" ...wanted for seeking the whereabouts of gun property which you are suspected to have" "what are you talking about?" "tell us where shadow is and give him up! or else..." sonic had tackled this thing before so he was sure a second time would be a breeze "or else what?" there was a huge flame from the back of the apache and it zoomed forwards,sonic made tracks and ran away. he was running down the dual carriageway and he thought"a few spindashes ought to bring this guy down" sonic jumped off the road and grabbed onto a lamppost and started spinning,he let go then formed into a ball and SmAsHEd! against the cockpit.the apache stopped movement then a pair of iron shutters came up over the window.it started chase once again and sonic followed suit. "ha! this thing wont be able to see me now" a small radar dish thingy came out a compartment and a robotic voice said "iniating night vision radar" "crap!i gotta get this thing out the city before it blows something up" sonic had to go faster and the only thing faster then running,was grinding. sonic looked around for something to slide along.he went through the mental checklist in his head "pole,,cars,,pavement,,electricity cables,,!" sonic saw the tall nylon towers which streached for miles out of the city but how was he gonna get up there? "hey loser!"sonic shouted at the gun apache still in pursuit "hit me with your best shot!" sonic got a bit more then he bargained for when three giant missiles which looked like nuclear rockets came flying at an incredible speed towards him. sonics mind just seemed to come to a halt in a state of panic,he had stopped moving and there would,nt be enough time to get out the way and sonic did`nt think twice about "driving" on these things. sonic hopped onto the first missile and slid along the length of it on his soap shoes then hopped on the second one and did the same,the third on he came to a halt on and traveled with it towards the sky.he leaped off it and landed on the electric cables and speeded along it fast enough to give supersonic a run for his money!

sonic had to bounce his body to strech the cable down then jump off it to get across each pylon and onto the next cable.he looked back while he did to see the sky lit up with the missile explosions and the apache in pursuit.sonic saw blue crackling down at his feet and he saw the few lights there was in the city far behind him glow on and off.. sonic was sure he would make the apache run out of fuel sooner or later but after grinding over miles of countryside it was still following.sonic had to come to some understanding.he crunched onto the faraway ground down below and shouted "STOP!" the apache did as it was told and hovered slightly over the ground and two agents came out holding machine guns.they said through a freaky gasmask along with other gadgets worn like goggles or utility belts."freeze dont move!" the agents moved closer holding thier guns thinking they were in control.sonic shouted back "NO!keep your distance i,m not afraid of you!" the agents both shot a small wave of bullets to incapacitate thier target but they just saw sonic satnding a few metres over wherer they had shot."now listen!!i wanna know what you want shadow for?" "it`s gun`s property" "shadow is not a THING.and he does`nt BELONG to anyone" "he is guns last chance for bringing down the eggman force" "what? you`re fighting eggman too?" "yes,we`re all on the same side here. now tell us. where is he?" sonic looked around before giving an answer and he saw a third gun agent at the apache door talking on a walkie talkie. ""it was a trap!"" sonic turned away from the agents ready to make like shit,run like fuck but he had nowhere to go.tanks,more apches,thousands of troops,buggys and all sorts of army vehicles were coming round from all directions.it looked like they were going to war or something. "aaawww! you did,nt get all this for little ol, me did you?" the gun agents simply raised thier guns looking at him with thier evil glare from the goggles.the army was closing in on him.

sonic looked to the sky but it was bare,nothing to grind,fly or run on. he could hear the rumbling of all the tanks and marching closing in on him,they were visible enough to see gun labbeled on every uniform,car and apache then they stopped. the silence was frightning,the same kind of frightning you might get at an execution and there was`nt much diffrence between that and the situation sonic was in.-sonic was done for.
every single weapon had fired some sort of projectile towards him and all at the same time.the bullets were going to rip through his body,the missiles were going to icinerate him to ash and the tank shells were going to turn his ashes to dust. sonics mind went into a overload state,he thought about running back the way to escape but there was bullets there as well.he could,nt roll,duck or jump his way out of this one. "i,m gonna die!better a quick death then a slow one though.it should`nt hurt either.a quick bullet through the head . mobius is going to hell.i,m going.who`s gonna defeat robotnik now? it had always been between me and him.a neverending fight.ruined by gun... look at me!...i,m getting all poetic and i,m gonna be dead in a few seconds.it`s so frustrating being able to think a million times faster then i can move.get`s me all riled up. i can see the bullets moving closer.i fixated my eyes on them ages ago and i have`nt been able to move them since,feels like ages with the speed i`ve been talking to myself in my head. what`s this place gonna be like without me?realllyyyyy bbboooooorring. i dont wanna die.theres so much i dont know yet.who am i? where did i come from? why am i the way i am? guess i`ll never know.the bullets are almost here,i can see my reflection in them.they`re gonna tear right through my head oohhhhh nasty. i hate those gun bastards.even robotnik seems okay compared to them now. was he a goodie or not at the end of the ark business?no.no he cant be if he sent badniks after us. i can feel the bullet on my skin,it`s burning hot and i can feel the preassure of the tip drilling through my forehead.i wish i could just skip or fast forward this part.i just wanna fall to the floor and be done with it. i cant imagine what everyone will be like when they find out.tails will probally try to "avenge my death" or something. dont see knuckles caring too much. shadow and rouge dont know me that well so they`re somebody for the others to lean on. robotnik`ll break out the champange,that`s if he does`nt remember back then...when we were friends..nobody else knows about that.not even robotnik. i hope my death gives him flashbacksAAIIHHAA !grrr! ow! its gone in, not much longer now... i have`nt had a shock like that since...uummm...when i met ames...she was a joke tails played on me for my birthday.a "kissogram" i did,nt know who she was when i opened the door let alone what she was there for.before i could say anything she gave me a loonnggg kiss.then she ran off laughing.i felt like i had a heart attack,my heart felt like it was gonna explode.what a shock it was. dont know if it was anger or embaressment of tails laughing at my face. wonder what`ll happen to her when i,m gone... who`s gonna save her from getting kidknapped all the time?

i wonder why i have`nt had a think like this before? i took my life for granted i guess.i should have been more carefull.this would have never happened. this is`nt fair.i`ve done nothing but good things,do i really deserve this?is this fate?it cant be.mobius going to hell?that`s just wrong. i`ve gotta get through this,but how? i`m gonna be dead in a moment. I DONT WANNA BE DEAD!! i cant leave everyone behind i cant stand the thought of not having them. what can i do?....
