Stupid mandatory notes: I am not the owner of anything Sonic related, nor is this story featuring other people's (nor my own) fan characters I need to warn you about. This story is intended for those over 13 because of language, violence, and adult content. I apologize only for grammatical errors I may miss, but not for the spelling mistakes.
This story will hit many points that some "sensitive" people may find "offensive." Because of this, I will put one of those "disclaimer" things before the story.
This story contains characters from the Sonic games, TV shows, and comics. This tale is also quite alternate universe, being that everyone is a bit older (Sonic is 20 in this story.).
Amy Rose yawned. She sat up in the large empty bed and looked around. "Oh, he left early again..." she muttered. "You would think a CEO could go in at anytime they wanted to, but no! He tells ME he has to leave early!" the lady squeaked before crawling out of bed and putting on a silk red robe over her silk gown. She proceeded down the elegant marble steps. Every time she looked around the house, she recalled to herself how much luxury Sonic had given her.
"Ah," Amy swooned, reaching the bottom of the steps. "I can still remember when he told me he loved me that day!"
Amy saw Tails, the orange two-tailed fox, wandering around the foyer. He had his things ready for school... but it was late, wasn't it? "Tails??" asked Amy. "Why aren't you at school?? It's almost 9:30!S"
"Ah, I missed the bus!" said Tails. "Could you give me a ride?"
"You know I can't see over the steering wheel... and Sonic runs to work!" Amy said. "Well, fine. I'll take you. That stupid chauffeur is drunk again! Just let me get my booster seat..."

"Stocks are up," said Knuckles, dressed in nothing but his usual along with a blazer and tie. He put a new copy of the stock portfolios in front of Sonic, who was sitting in his huge leather chair. Sonic was looking at the skyline of the town, admiring the harbor and business district.
"Man, you know," Sonic said, turning him and the chair away from the window to face Knuckles. "I miss Mobius sometimes, but not all the time. In this kind of place, I could expand like I wanted to, and man, is it not cool?? And look how happy everyone is!"
"Eh..hmph," Knuckles made a grunt. Every time Sonic mentioned home, it made him think about Angel Island. He couldn't believe he'd taken up the offer Sonic gave to him, letting him move the master emerald to the mansion. "Yeah, we're happy as hell." the enchidna muttered.
"You say somethin'?" Sonic asked.
"No, no I didn't." said Knuckles. "Oh, I need to call my wife and see what times she wants to go out to dinner tonight. I'll be back later."
"Alright man!" Sonic waved to Knuckles as he exited. Sonic leaned back in his chair, thinking about Amy. Living such a high lifestyle, women (and that one man) came and left in his life. Many times he and Amy broke up, and got engaged again. How many engagement rings has he given her? "Man, what was wrong with me then? Psh... this time, I'll have no kind of distraction from marrying Amy!

"Alright class," said Mr. Stuart. "Let's read the passage from Gilgamesh again."
He thought his time was up in the metropolis when Sonic left, but, once his return and interaction with Chris was confirmed by the insiders, there he was again, being that Mr. Stuart guy, installed as a teacher. He'd gotten out of the task as fast as he'd gotten used to it in the beginning. Still, it was interesting to see his old students so grown-up.
"I love this story!" Frances whispered to Danny, who sat next to her. "It has whores in it!"
"Frances... All the stories we've read so far have had whores in it. This is historic lit."
"Wow, they had hookers back then?" Frances said outloud without realizing her volume. The entire class laughed. Mr. Stuart only shook his head at the "special" girl.
In the back corner of the class were Snively Kintobor and Maria Robotnik, members of a now notorious family. They weren't bad, they weren't good. They were, indeed, strange.
"Snively, would you like to read the next passage? I haven't heard from you all day!" Mr. Stuart asked. "Let alone a week," he then added with a slightly disgruntled mutter.
Snively, being very short for his age, stood on his chair, arms folded behind his back and said: "No, I would not," before bowing his head properly and taking his seat again.
Mr. Stuart grumbled then looked to Maria. "Ms. Robotnik... do you still have laryngitis?"
The girl nodded. She's now had this "problem" for three weeks.
"I'll do it, " Chris raised his hand and said. He was always doing it, but he didn't mind. Mr. Stuart smiled out of approval.

Amy, still in her nightgown and with a cherry-flavored cigarillo dangling from her lips, drove around Station Square hours after dropping Tails off at school. "I wonder if he's having a meeting right now?" she asked aloud. She drove past Sonic's building and looked up at the high-rise corporation. "Last time I messaged him, he seemed pretty upset... maybe it was because he lost that deal he wanted?"
Amy decided to send Sonic a text message anyway. Indeed, he was in the middle of a meeting. It was tiny, but extremely important.
--
"You know, Sir," said one of his VPs, "That account you wanted may just go through!"
"Aw, man!" Sonic leapt out of his chair with a backflip and landed on his desk. "I've been waiting for that thing! Shit yeah!"
His assistants were happy. One said: "The Acorn account--"
"Wait, WHAT?" Sonic fell off the desk abd shouted from the floor: "Is... that what it's called?? The account from Mobius??"
"Yes sir, the assistant said. "The person in charge of this whole thing's last name is Acorn!"
"...Right. It's just a coincidence." Sonic kept muttering as he climbed back into the chair. He spun the chair around to face the window. He cupped his face in his hands and shook his head.
"Sir, is something wrong?" the VP asked.
"Get out!" Sonic ordered.
--
"He didn't message me back!" Amy shouted as she slammed the phone into the seat beside her. She was at a stoplight, and the drivers next to her stared at the pink hedgehog in bewilderment. "WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT!?" she screamed at them both, causing them to speed ahead and run the red light.
"I hate this! I hate this SO much!" shouted Amy punched her car horn. She knew Sonic was at work... but he just didn't give her enough attention! He was starting to work late and would go right to bed, and get right back up again!
"I've gotta do something..." Amy said.

The road was calm where Amy drove, yet, it was but only several blocks away where the streets were being blocked off. People stood around, stunned and afraid. Multiple sonic booms followed by a sharp gust of wind that knocked the barriers down swept past. The cause was the S-1, the fastest car in the S-Team's cache, speeding behind a group of strange beings driving an unusually large,but outrageously fast truck with double the nitro boost that would be forbidden by any existing space program.
"I'll get them, I'll get them!" Sam kept chanting this as his mantra. He was tailing the huge truck. The S-1's enamel was being charred by the exhaust rockets on the truck's tail, but that was the least of Sam's worries.
Inside the truck was Vector, the driver, a crocodile donning a pair of headphones that blasted heavy bass beats, Espio, a normally calm Chameleon, who, at the moment, was in a panic due to the noise outside and inside the truck, and Charmy, who had fainted from the outrageous output the sound system was making. On the roof with a bazooka was Mighty the armadillo, constantly shooting at the S-1's wheels and any cop who tried to chase them.
"MAN OH MAN!" screamed Vector over his loud headphones in addition to the loud music playing in the truck that he would NOT allow for anyone to turn off. "SO A TO US LEVELING THE WHITE HOUSE KITCHEN AND STEALING ALL THAT GOLD, HUH!?"
"YOU NEED TO TURN THAT SHIT OFF, MAN!" Espio screamed, his eyes bloodshot. He kept jumping around in a panic, the noise making him downright insane.
"They'd better slow down!" Mighty said. Vector wasn't that good of a driver to begin with. He was now trying to swerve around roadblocks and whatnot. Vector was now driving in the wrong lane.
Amy parked her car on he street corner of a coffee shop. She got out of the car and was on her way inside, in nightgown, robe, high-heeled bedroom shoes, and cigarillo.
"DAMN IT! WATCH OUT!" Mighty screamed. He leapt off the truck and landed on the pavement below as the truck went pummeling into Amy's parked car. Amy leapt away from the explosion just in time, landing on the ground in a daze.
Sam almost ran over Amy, but he turned his wheel sharply to swerve away from the explosion. "Whoa!" Sam shouted, leaping out of the wreckage. He rushed over with intent of finally grabbing who he'd been pursuing.
Unbeknownst to him, the trio in the truck escaped quickly and quietly with their loot. Charmy was in a stupor when he ambled over to Mighty. Vector and Charmy slinked over to where Amy was.
"Yo, wait, check it out!" Vector whispered, slapping Espio (who was still shaking from his rattled nerves) on the back. "Isn't that Sonic's fiancee?"
"I-I d-do believe it is..." Espio slinked over her for a better look. "D-do you realize how much r-rans-s-s-om--"
"Yeah!" Vector whispered with enthusiasm. "C'mon, let's take her and split!
The four of them, with Amy, were quick to steal one of the police cars that had surrounded the area. They were on their way to the hideout!

Sonic stared at the text message on his phone. Then his emerald eyes wandered over to the documents containing the information on the Acorn account. "God damn, I hope it's just her brother..." Sonic muttered. "It's been so long since you and I... but that was a long time ago. I've moved on now. Maybe she has too."
Sonic took it upon himself to reply to the message.
