Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN SONIC BUT GOTHIC SNOW CHICKENS AND YODA SODA ARE MINE! Wait.. I didn't use those two things in this story.. O-o;;
She wasn't home yet; she was still lying in the bed Sonic had left her in last night. It was late morning and light was pouring in through the window.
"Why aren't I.. home yet.." she whispered to herself turning over. Her emerald was still on the nightstand just as she had left it. "Well, at least I guess they can be trusted.." she murmured.
Suddenly there was knocking on the door to the room she was in, and then she could hear Shadow's voice.
"Hey kid! Don't you want some breakfast or are you just gonna sleep all day?!"
Ed pushed the covers off of her and stretched. "Yah.. I'm coming.." she muttered, grabbing her emerald and stuffing it into her pocket. She walked towards the door then opened it, but she hadn't gotten all of two steps out of her room, before a bucket of water from above was dumped on her, and not too soon after she heard laughing. Shadow sat on the stair banister. "Gee princess, looks like your beauty sleep didn't pay off did it."
Ed was silent, and began walking down the stairs, right past Shadow, who looked at her. "What? Aren't you mad or something? I just insulted you not to mention drenched you in water." Ed shrugged, and continued walking. "It is your house. I suppose that means you have the right to do what you want.."
Shadow looked surprised, then spoke up. "One, this isn't my house. It's Tail's workshop. And two, even if it WAS my house, you don't just let people dump water on your head then let them dis you! What is your problem?!"
Ed shrugged again. "I don't know what my problem is, but enough kids back home say I have a problem that I'm starting to believe it.." she murmured. Shadow looked puzzled. "Why don't you yell at them or hurt them or something?"
"I dunno.. But.. for some reason I never have the urge to."
"You're never angry? Never upset?"
She shook her head. "Never."
It was a few hours later and Ed had decided to go out with Amy to explore the Mystic Ruins. She was glad that she at least got along with Amy. She could remember earlier that morning how she had scolded Shadow, then asked Ed if she wanted to go exploring with her later that day.
Ed looked up at the birds that passed overhead, and then looked around at the lush rain forest and the flowing creek next to them. The water was crystal clear, and the sun shimmered off it. It looked good enough to drink, and Ed was extremely thirsty.
"Hey Amy hold up." She said before leaning down by the creek and cupping her hands to collect water in them, then drank it. It was better the water back home, so she took off her backpack and took out a canteen, then stuck it under the water waiting for it to fill.
When it filled, she took a sip, then lay down. Amy sat beside her. "Hey Amy? Thanks for letting me come exploring with you. I wish I could stay here forever. It's so perfect. Too bad I can't." Amy looked puzzled. "Why not?"
Ed sighed. "For the last time Amy, I'm not from here! You're not even real! You're just characters in videogames."
Amy sighed and said, "No, that's just what the people of you Earth took us for."
"What??" Asked Ed, looking up at Amy now listening intently.
"There are two worlds. Our world, which consists of us, and humans alike. And then there is your world where there are only humans. Sometimes, the link between our two worlds becomes extremely thin. I know what you're talking about, as do all the others. We've crossed over that thin line before, but one time something went wrong. And a vortex appeared, sucking in any people near by and flung them into your world. One day later a child the age of 3 was reported missing. Almost ten years ago. And you turn 13 soon don't you?"
Ed was sort of shocked, but she shrugged and tried to hide it. "Yah I turn 13 soon so what? I am from my world, and you're from yours. I'll go along with what you say for now EXCEPT for what you say about me being from your world. So, people put you in a videogame because some spotted you and thought it would make good publicity or something like that.." she said. She sat up and looked down in the creek at her reflection, and for a moment, it looked familiar, but she shook her head and the brief moment of remembering was gone.
Amy sighed. "Come on. Wanna go to the temple?"
Ed looked up at her. "Temple?? Wait.. oh I know what your talking about!"
"So will you come?"
Ed nodded. "Sure."
