Purest Of Hearts
(In this chapter, Chalulu will be able to talk. Yes, A TALKING CHAO! W00t!
But in Baby talk, ya know? Like "Me wanna cookie!" Also, the others won't
be able to understand her cause to them it just sounds like Chao Talk (Ex:
Cha-chao! Or little baby sounds) So yeah, I just wanted to point that out
so some of you won't be all confused. I did this so maybe you could understand what Chalulu was thinking and how she felt more. ) And another thing, im not gonna do the time stuff anymore; it just makes the story more
complicated for me to finish XP. So let's continue on with the story.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The round shadow-like figure seeped through under the front door and right into Amy's small but cozy apartment. It moved swiftly across the red carpet and under a brown coffee table. It blended in smartly with the shade, which the polished wooden table offered. Small blood shot eyes scanned its surroundings as if in search of something.or someone. It quickly made it's way through the small kitchen and passed the living room. As the dark creature moved gracefully across the floor it accidentally knocked over a small vase that held beautiful combination of red roses and blue bonnets settled on top of a desk.
The little chao was having a peaceful dream about her living in paradise on a tropical island in the middle of the ocean. There was plenty of fresh, tropical fruits to eat along with a breathe-taking view of the blistering sun high above the clear waters which made the ocean sparkle with it's natural magnificence. But the best thing of all was.that her only friend, Amy Rose, was there enjoying the exhilarating moment with her. They both made sand castles on the shore and shared delectable snow cones with one another. Then, as the sun started to set they both sat down and enjoyed the view.
The dream was interrupted as Chalulu woke with a shock from the nerve rattling sound of glass shattering into pieces. She jerked her head up and looked about the bright pink and red room cautiously. Her dark blue eyes soon focused on a lonely teddy bear that was nestled between two pillows nearby and quickly reached over and held it tightly.
A question mark appeared over her head as she looked at the teddy bear, "Could Amy-Chan be back already?" She said to herself.
Chalulu carefully climbed down off the bed and onto the soft carpet while dragging her bear by the arm. She stealthily tiptoed over to the door and opened it a tiny bit just to take a peek out. She saw and heard nothing. Nothing but dead silence accompanied by the constant ticking of the clock not too far away
A sweat drop appeared over Chalulu's head, " C'mon now, I mustn't be scared.." She assured herself.
"I must be brave, I gotta be brave."
She slowly opened the door then poked her head through. The little light blue Nights chao glanced up and down the hall. There was still no sign of Amy anywhere and she started to worry. Her blue eyes soon were fixed upon the entrance to the kitchen just a couple of feet away. The bright rays of the sun peeked through the wooden blinds on the window in the kitchen and left a striped pattern of pure light and shade on the tiled floor below. Chalulu slowly stepped out in front from Amy's bedroom and walked down the hallway towards the kitchen nervously while still dragging the lifeless teddy bear behind.
She gathered up all her courage and called out to her friend, "Amy-Chan?"
No one answered.
The fear inside her grip on her teddy bear that seemed to be the only thing to comfort her at the moment. "A-aaamy? You there?"
The question was answered with the pure silence of the room.
Chalulu continued her way down the hall and finally reached the kitchen area. She slightly shivered as the cold tiled floor met her light blue bare feet. Just as she took a couple more steps into the kitchen the mysterious shadow zoomed pass behind her and went straight into the nest room ahead. Chalulu jumped in fear and quickly turned around ready to attack. She gulped and hugged the little bear close to her light blue face as her small body twitched uncontrollably with fear. There was so much fear bottled up inside of the little chao but she tried so hard to hide it and be brave for once.
A weak smile formed on Chalulu's face as she glanced up at the ceiling with pride, " Amy-Chan wouldn't be afraid, so I won't be afraid."
She chanted this to herself continuously as she exited the kitchen and entered the beautifully decorated living room. There was a border of delicate roses lining the middle of the pink wall all around the room along with lovely paintings. But what really caught Chalulu's attention were the pictures on the far end of the room. Strawberry scented candles lit up the pictures with a faint glow as the sweet aroma of sweet strawberries filled the room.
Chalulu slowly walked up to get a closer look at the photos. Her attention was suddenly focused on a nice picture of Amy.but there was also another hedgehog next to her that was a mystery to the little chao. He was a royal shade of blue with long spiky quills and his eyes was an emerald green, slightly similar to her best friend, Amy's. The blue one's cheek was a light tinted red as a rosy pink hedgehog wrapped her arms around his neck an offered a flirtatious grin toward the camera.
Chalulu giggled, "Blue person look really silly. Me wonder does he like Amy-Chan." The remainder was basically group snapshots with a few other unknown figures present. There was an orange fox, red echidna, and a white bat. Chalulu thought they all looked pretty hilarious because they all made such ridiculous faces and poses. Judging from the background of the photo, she could easy assume that they were having a spectacular time at the beach.
A tear trickled down the chao's face and whimpered, " M-me wish I had more friends. Just one is not enough."
As she sheded tears of sadness, the shadow was lurking behind her and closing in on her from behind every chance it got.
She backed away from the disheartening snapshots on the wall. Before long, her eyes were soon fixed on a mess of broken glass and rose petals scattered all over the carpet. " That Amy-Chan's favorite flower thing. Eesh, what if she thinks me did it? She will hate me for sure!" Chalulu rested her head on her round hands and cried silently, "She never believe me if I said a ghost thingy knocked it-" She was cut of from a strange sound from right behind her. She quickly turned around and was face to face with the evil shadow that had been creeping around the apartment all this time.
Chalulu was momentarily shocked frozen with fear right on the spot. Even when she tried to scream the terror that had crammed up inside her blocked all her attempts. The shadow stared at her; frightened dark blue met deep bloody red. Finally after a couple of minutes Chalulu gathered up the courage she had left and spoke still looking
"W-ho are you? Why you b-break Amy-Chan's flower thing.?" She growled as anger swelled up inside her, " You gonna pay for that!" Chalulu lunged at the dark figure with a fierce punch to the face. But instead of landing her attack, the chao flew right through the enemy and straight into the wall headfirst. The shadow teleported over to the injured chao and lowered it's gaze upon the light blue heap below him. There was a small crack on the all from the great impact Chalulu produced from her previous assault. Chalulu moaned and rubbed the top of her head. But before she could regain her consciousness, the shadow formed a sharp claw and held it above the little creature ready to make it's final and deadly strike.

Amy Rose was pacing briskly through the busy streets of Downtown Station Square to the Pastry Shop a couple of blocks down. Her gorgeous bright red dress that hugged every curve of her figure and her shoulder- length pink quills swayed with the gentle breeze. The sweet smell of succulent pastries got stronger as she neared the Pastry Shop. For some reason she had this strange feeling that something good was going to happen today. The thought of it kind of made her light-headed and cheerful.
Just a few more blocks away until she reaches her destination.
Tails was waiting rather impatiently for Sonic to finish the remainder of his sweets. He couldn't help but hide a laugh or two because Sonic still hadn't noticed that he had been robbed of two cookies.
Sonic eyed Tails suspiciously trying to figure out what was so damn funny, " Hm? Did I miss something here?"
A sweat drop appeared over the young fox, "Huh? Uh, n-no, nothing at all! I was just thinking of something funny that happened a few days ago."
Sonic wasn't the brightest person around be he could easily tell that something wasn't right, call it a Hedgehog's instinct if you want. He folded his tan arms and slid them behind his head. His adventurous green eyes narrowed
"Heh.and that's what happened! He he."
Sonic gave his two-tailed friend a half glare as he shook his head and sighed.
".No, really I mean it!" Tails
Sonic just looked at him waiting for him to blurt out with the truth. It was just a matter of time before the little kitsune was a victim of guilt himself. Waiting, rather impatiently, our blue hero tapped his foot quickly and crossed his arms. The little fox started sweating and nervously laughed a bit, trying to look as innocent as possible (WAI! That would look so kawaii^^). "Sonic, Do you REALLY think somebody like me would steal from you?"
Sonic pretended like he was performing a vast amount of thought to that question, " Hm, let me think.YES! NOW HAND EM' OVER!"
"We'll geez, how wonderful. " The fox thought.
"Tails, if you seriously think I'm that dense."
"I do. ^^" Tails responded with a cheesy smile. " Remember that time when you --" Sonic quickly sped over and covered Tails' mouth with a gloved hand, "I told you before.NEVER speak of that ever again!" Tails tried to answer back but his words came out in muffled words from behind Sonic's hand. Sonic removed his hadn't and tapped his foot impatiently as he held out his hand waiting for his two-tailed buddy to hand over the goods.
Tails sighed in defeat, " Oh Alright you win."
Sonic still was waiting for him to say something else as he narrowed his eyes with a frown on his face.
The little fox sensed this an heaved another sigh, " Ok, ok,"
Tails soon gave in since he could see clearly that his pitiful act of playing dumb had long ago failed to work. He bent down and lifted his orange and white backpack on the bench and unzipped it. He was about to retrieve the chocolate chips cookies from the bag until he noticed something pink not too far away from the corner of his eye. His dazzling blue eyes looked over to Sonic who didn't seem to notice that his rosy pink tormentor would soon be approaching. He was facing the other way gazing up at the sky with his hands on his hips and waiting for his buddy to hand over his cookies fair and square.
Amy finally reached the Pastry Shop. Her pace started to pick up the pace as she got closer and closer. Her feet suddenly froze when her green eyes focused on something blue a couple of feet away.
She squealed as a wide grin formed on her youthful face, " I can't believe he's here! Oh my God! EEEEE! My Sonikku is finally back!" She twirled around on the heels of her red boots and started her way up to the orange fox.
Tails greeted her with smile and whispered, "Hey Amy! Long time no see."
The pink hedgehog walked up and gave him a big hug, "Yeah same here." Sonic interrupted the conversation but still wasn't turned around, "Tails, I'm waiiiting."
A devious grin stretched across his white muzzle as an idea came to mind, "Yes your majesty, just give me time to look a little bit more."
Amy giggled, as she was about to call out to her blue hero. She was just about to put her gentle hands on his shoulder until Tails quickly grabbed Amy by the arm and dragged her behind a nearby tree full pretty cherry blossoms.
"Taaails, Why'd you do that for?! I had him right where I wanted him!"
"I know, but I have a better idea." A grin stretched ear to ear on his white muzzle.
Amy was a bit confused at first but then in a split second a devious grin appeared on her cheerful face, "Ohhh I get iit.Hehehe!"
"Right! And while you do that, I'm going to take a quick run into the Pastry Shop." He pointed out a few feet away, " So you guys can be alone, got it?"
Amy gave him a thumbs up, "Got it!" She deviously rubbed her hands together and prepared herself for the pounce on the clueless Sonic.
Tails laughed a bit, "Ok.One.two.!!"
HA! I'm gonna stop the story right here for right now ::rubs her wrist:: Geez, the hurt! I think I did pretty we'll with this chapter ^^. Chapter 3 will be up soon so you must beee paitent with meee. ~runs off~
so some of you won't be all confused. I did this so maybe you could understand what Chalulu was thinking and how she felt more. ) And another thing, im not gonna do the time stuff anymore; it just makes the story more
