Disclaimer- I don't own Sonic or any Sonic stuff so DON'T HURT ME!!!

Ed sat near the top of the temple in the center of the Mystic Ruins, staring blankly across the lush forest.

"What Amy said.. can't be true.." she told herself over and over. Amy must've left hours ago by now, because the sun was almost completely out of site. Ed wondered if she'd even be able to find the way back to Tail's workshop. If she started now it would get dark too quickly and she'd be lost.

"Guess I'll just have to stay here for tonight huh.." she muttered, laying down and looking up at the sky, which was starting to become dotted with stars.

"Hey kid!!"

Ed's ears pricked up. "Eh?" She sat up and looked down, to see exactly who she expected. The cool blue hedgehog was standing at the bottom of the Temple, leaning on the wall that surrounds it.

"Aren't you coming? Jeez, you should've just come home with Amy. Now you've got them all worried and they sent me to get you." Sonic shouted up at her.

Ed sighed then began walking down the temple steps. "Geez Sonic sor- Aaaaaaah!" she tripped, and Sonic ran to catch her, but before she hit the ground she floated.

"What the?!" Sonic stared up at he in disbelief. Ed looked around, "Holy crap, I must've died. I.. I ALREADY DIED! No! I don't want to die!"

"KID SHUTUP I'M RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF YOU! YOU'RE NOT FRIGGIN DEAD!" Sonic yelled.

Ed looked down at him. "Wow.. that means I'm.. Flying!"

Sonic rolled his eyes. "Aren't you bright." Ed looked down at him and frowned. "Why are you so mean to me?! I didn't know that friggin cat hedgehog hybrids could fly."

Sonic was silent, then finally said, "Maybe your weird emerald gave you that sort of power that enables you to fly. And another thing, If you must know why I don't like you is because I HATE traitors."

Ed blinked. "I'm not a traitor! What do you mean?"

Sonic glared at her. "What have those people in your world done to you?! Get down here right now kid and follow me."

Ed sighed then landed and started to follow Sonic, avoiding eye contact with him every time he glance over his shoulder to make sure she wasn't being stupid and about to run off or hit him or something.

Ed wasn't thinking of doing that. Sonic finally spoke up.

"So Shadow was right. You don't ever get mad do you?"

Ed blinked a couple of times then murmured. "No."

"Why not? Even if you ARE a traitor, aren't you the least bit offended? Or sad that I despise you so much? Or SOMETHING?!"

Ed shook her head. "No. I've never been mad.. or unhappy.. or sad.." she said quietly.

"So you're always happy??" Sonic asked. Ed shook her head again. "Not always, I'm just tolerant of insults, and soon, I learned to ignore them so well, I'm no longer angered or saddened by them."

Sonic sighed. "You are a weird kid.. You said people call you Ed. What's your real name?"

Suddenly Ed stopped. "I don't.. know. Mom and Dad were expecting to adopt a little boy, but someone beat them to the one they wanted, so they got me instead. They were gonna call the boy Ed, so the name just stuck."

Ed lay in the bed Tails let her stay in. She was afraid this might be the bed she would be stuck in for a long time. She was now realizing it wasn't a dream. It was real, and being at the temple, seemed so familiar. Could it be what Amy said was true??

Suddenly there was soft knocking on the door. She quickly sat up straight. "Come in."

The door was pushed open and a familiar blue hedgehog poked his head inside, then walked in, and sat on the end of Ed's bed. Ed stared. "Yes?"

"Um, Ed? I'm uh.. sorry. Just because you don't remember, I guess that doesn't make you a traitor. I got carried away."

Ed smiled. "Thank you Sonic." Sonic looked at her. "Hey stop smiling! Just.. forget it and get some sleep." He said, getting off the end of the bed and walking out the room, shutting the door behind him. ' Well, he's not a thing like the videogame character.... but he seems nice... ' Then finally, maybe and hour or so later, Ed fell asleep.

Sonic sighed and leaned against the wall of the living room downstairs. "What a freaky kid."

Shadow looked up from the Tv to look at Sonic. "I dunno, I think she's sort of cute. Don't you? Especially for a hybrid."

"That's why you poured water on her?"

"Yes, yes it is."

"Well, she is NOT cute, and, what's wrong with being a hybrid?" Sonic snapped.

Shadow shrugged. "Nothing." He turned his back around to watch more TV. Sonic shook his head. "I'm sorry Shadow, I guess I'm just freaking out. There's something about her I don't like, and then there's something-"

"Don't worry about it." Shadow said, trying to sound caring, but it came out more like a cue for Sonic to shut up. Soic shrugged and walked out into the den, where Tails was playing some computer games.

"Hey Tails." Sonic said falling into a beanbag chair near the computer. "Whatcha doing?" he asked, looking up at the screen. "What's with the pic of the human?"

Tails looked down at him. "It's Ed, in her human form. I found her on a website, from the other world."

"How'd you do that?!" Sonic asked in astonishment jumping up.

"I hacked into one of course! Although, this is probably going to destroy my computer... Anyway, she's on some adoption website, says she's already been taken... but see here? It says they don't know where she came from.'

"Like that'll be enough proof for her..." Sonic muttered sarcastically.

"Well, it probably won't be, but, if I find enough info, then maybe, she'll believe us..."

Sonic rolled his eyes slightly, but forced a smile. "Go for it little buddy."
