Hello. I've read and re-read Chapter 3 and I thought that it was incomplete
and a bit rushed so heres... THE CONTINUATION OF CHAPTER 3!
I dedicate this chapter (well, the whole fanfic) to my faithful reviewers who've been waiting patiently for the chapters. I want to update this fanfic more reguarly than I have been doing. Hopefully, it will be that way soon. Just don't lose your faith in me. ^ ^
Chapter 3: Part II
"What do you mean?" I queried, my bottom lips quivering nervously from fright.
"Why it is very simple Amy Rose. Your days on this Earth are coming to an abrupt end. The life force that resides in you has become depleted and will soon vanish completely. When that happens your soul will be released from your mortal being and you shall be free to roam wherever you please. You should not fear death my child for it is truly liberating."
"But I don't want to die!" Tears unashamedly fell from my eyes, divulging the truthfulness of my words. I never really thought about death; it was a subject that I really didn't want to think about. Ever since the dreams began, however, I was forced to think about it and it frightened me. It frightened me more than anything had before.
"I see that there is fear in your heart." the being whispered heavily. "Nothing I can do or say will change that. All I can say is, 'Enjoy life while you can; you don't have that much of it left.'"

"I don't know what I'm going to do with her. She won't eat or sleep! Hell, she won't even talk to me! ME! Of all people!"
"Something is troubling her that's for sure. Have you taken her to see a doctor?"
"Yeah. They can't do anything about it though. I'm really worried about her!"
"Don't worry, I will talk to her."
My mind buzzed with unnatural thoughts as I secretively listened in on Sonic and Shadow's conversation. Was Sonic that worried about me? It had been a week since the fortune telling incident at Twinkle Park. The vision had rendered me helpless, if I was going to die soon what was the use of trying to be happy? Death meant certain unhappiness, I was sure of it. For the past week I had been bedridden, not being able to walk without tiring out quickly. Luckily, the bathroom was not far away from my bed so I could access it easily. I could not sleep either; it was much too hard to stand having another dream, especially like the one I experienced not just a week ago. In my heart I knew that it was all psychological; if I only thought better thoughts my life and my health would improve but it was not that easy...
"Amy?" Shadow's peaceful voice drifted to my ears as he entered my bedroom slowly. His usually cold crimson eyes were soft and caring. Even more unusual, he was smiling. It was not overpowering, more gentle than anything else.
I only stared at him, afraid to say anything. If I were to say anything, I thought, my friends would think that I am worse off than I really was.
He walked over to my bed and sat down next to me, pressing the springs with a gloved hand.
"Hmm... Firm... This matress is very supporting. It is also covered in the most alluring color. It's crimson, just like my eyes..." His smile remained unwavered, only growing in its entirety.
"Cut the bull crap Shadow." I whispered angrily, feeling compelled to say something at the moment.
"Ok Amy." His smile faltered, being replaced by his usual from. He tugged at the stiff collar of his military uniform almost uncomfortably, watching me with cold, yet gentle eyes. "I want you to get up out of the bed and live! It's tearing Sonic to shreds to see you like this!"
"Well, it's tearing me up to shreds to have to listen to you!"
Shadow looked absolutley furious. "If you want to know the truth Amy, I wouldn't really care if you fell off of the face of the Earth right now. I just hate to see Sonic hurt like this."
By this time, I had grown quite indignant myself. I glared at Shadow and he returned the glare, only the anger shown in those fiery scarlet eyes was far much greater than my own.
"If you care so much about Sonic then why don't you marry him! It would take a lot off my load!" My insult was clear and to the point but it was not welcome with open arms by the dark hedgehog or his blue haired comrade that had just appeared in the open doorway right before I had even opened my mouth.
"Hmmph!" Shdow rose quickly, shooting daggers in my heart with his stare. Sonic looked absolutely flabbergasted. He also looked hurt was well, much to my dismay.
"Amy..." he whispered, tears flowing freely from his eyes. I tried to comfort him with a few kind words but he left before I could say anything. Shadow left swiftly also, his combat boots clomping on the hardwood floor.
"Why do I have to always open my big mouth?" I whispered to myself, turning over on my side. I started to feel sleepy all of a sudden; it was like someone had added ten ton weights to my eyelids. Buzzers started going off in my head, telling me to WAKE UP! THIS IS A DANGER ZONE! My mind tried to fight it all it could but it didn't win. My eyes closed almost forcefully as I fell into a deep, yet troubling sleep...
Eh, I like this chapter but the ending is a bit rushed in my opinion.
