Love, Lust and Betrayal

By: TysonEspioz Kitty

Chapter one: Love

The blue hero was sat on his bed in his room. He was thinking about his chameleon friend. Many of his other friends had returned home after the chaos of the emeralds but Espio, himself, Shadow and his little sister, Kelly had decided to stay. As always Shadow was off on his own; Kelly was playing with Chris; but he had no idea where Espio was. The quiet Chaotix member was usually playing with Kelly, but lately he seemed a little distracted. At that moment, his little sister came running in. "Hey Sonic, are you coming to get an ice-cream with us?" asked Kelly. "Yeah sure, just give me a minute," replied Sonic. "Okay well hurry up," smiled Kelly, "Chris and Espio are waiting downstairs." Since Amy had gone and stopped bothering him, Sonic could start sorting out his feelings.

Walking downstairs, Sonic threw on his favourite jacket and walked up to his friends. "Don't forget to pick up the groceries," reminded Ella, "Your mother and father are coming home to visit today." "Don't worry, I won't," smiled Chris. "Yeah Ella, we'll go to the grocery store first," smiled Kelly, as she held hands with Espio and Sonic.

Walking down the streets about five minutes later, Sonic and Espio were swinging Kelly back and fourth. "Whee," laughed Kelly, as she was swung forwards. Sonic looked at the playful chameleon and smiled. He looked so different when he was happy and not distracted. When Kelly was swung forward again, she almost fell on her knees. "You have to be careful with a little kid," commentated a voice, "She could get hurt." "Shadow," smiled Espio. "What do you want?" asked Sonic. "Well at least I got one nice welcome," smirked Shadow, while winking at Espio, who blushed in return. "You heard my big brother. What do you want?" cried Kelly. "I wanted to find someone special and it looks like I found him," replied Shadow, winking at Espio again and this time Sonic noticed. He was burning up with jealously, hate and a slight of confusion. 'How dare he wink at my Espio,' thought Sonic, 'but why is he winking at him.' "We're going to the ice cream store," smiled Kelly, "Do you want to come?" "No thanks, I have stuff to do," answered Shadow. "Oh well, your loss," stated a jealous Sonic, "Come on guys, lets get moving!" "Now, now Sonic. Don't be jealous," smirked Shadow, as he walked closer to the group. Espio and Kelly looked at Sonic, surprised. "Anyway," started Shadow, as he leaned closer to Espio, whispering in his ear and placing his hand on his cheek, "I'll see you at home." He took off after that. Sonic let go of his sister and ran off. "Hey Sonic! I thought you wanted to get an ice cream with us," cried Kelly, but it was too late; Sonic was too far to hear. "I think I'll head back home. Want me to take the groceries to Ella for you," blushed Espio. "Sure, thanks," replied Chris. "Oh well," sighed Kelly, "Are you going to the ice cream store?" "Yeah, I'm still going," smiled Chris, "Come on."

Anyway, back at the Thorndyke Mansion, a helicopter landed on the platform. Chris' mom and dad had arrived home. Chuck, Ella and Tonaka came out to greet them. "Is Chris home?" asked his mom. "He's just gone to get an ice cream. He'll be back soon," replied Chuck. Mr and Mrs Thorndyke entered their mansion. "Where's Sonic and friends?" asked Chuck. "Sonic and Kelly are probably with Chris at the ice cream store," replied Ella, "And Espio and Shadow are upstairs."

About half an hour later, Chris and Kelly came back home. "It looks like my mom and dad are home early," smiled Chris, while picking Kelly up, "Pretend you're a stuffed animal." "Okay," smiled Kelly. As Chris entered the mansion, his mom came out of the living room and hugged him. "Oh, I've missed my special boy," smiled his mom. "I've missed you too, mom," chocked Chris, as his mom let go. "Who's this, then?" asked his mom, pointing to Kelly. "Oh, erm one of my stuffed animals," replied Chris, nervously.

In Chris' room, the three friends were bored. Kelly went up to the door, but before she opened it, Espio said, "Where do you think you're going?" "Downstairs," replied Kelly. "You know what Chris said. He wants us to keep out of sight while his mom and dad are here," reminded Espio. "I'll be careful, don't worry," reassured Kelly, as she went out the door. Espio was about to go after her but was stopped by Shadow, "I thought she'd never leave. Now, let's have some fun."

Downstairs, in the living room, Kelly was hiding behind the sofa with her chao friend Choco. "Chao, Chao," whispered Choco. "Shhh," whispered Kelly. "Did you hear that?" asked Chris' mom. "Er, no I didn't hear anything," replied Chris. Everyone else but Chuck moved to the kitchen. Chris popped his head over the sofa and saw Kelly and Choco looking up at him. "What are you two doing here?" asked Chris. "We got bored and decided to see everyone," smiled Kelly. At that moment, the doorbell rang and Mr Tonaka went to answer it. Chris' uncle, Sam, entered the living room. "Uncle Sam," cried Chris. "Hey Chris," smiled Sam. Chris pretended to 'accidentally' fall behind the sofa to grab Kelly, and then he ran out the room. Chris' mom entered the living room.

In the hall, Kelly saw her brother pass the window, waving at her to go outside. "Kelly, stay out of sight okay?" whispered Chris, "And tell Sonic to as well." "Okay, come on Choco," smiled Kelly.

Back in the living room, "Hey Uncle Sam, would it be alright if I come with you next time you race," asked Chris. "Sure if it's alright with your mom," replied Sam. "Do I have a choice?" joked his mom, "Just make sure he's safe Sam." "Don't worry, he will," reassured Sam, but then saw his rival and a little one waving at him, "Hey that blue hedgehog. It was there, at the window." Everyone looked out the window and found nothing there. "I didn't see anything," lied Chuck. "Me either," agreed Ella. "Chris, you saw them didn't you?" asked Sam. Chris nodded his head answering no, "What do you mean? Them?" "I saw that blue hedgehog that was faster than me and he was with a littler pink hedgehog with blonde hair," answered Sam. "Sonic, Kelly. You promised you'd stay out of sight," cursed Chris, under his breath.

In Chris' Grandpa's lab room, Sonic gave his sister a rare flower. "For me?" wondered Kelly. "Yep" smiled Sonic, as Kelly took hold of the flower. Chris entered the room. "You like teasing my Uncle, don't you?" sighed Chris. "Yeah, too bad if he finds out about us," laughed Sonic, "Where's Espio?" "Oh, I think he's still in Chris' room with Shadow," remembered Kelly.

Later that night, Kelly was sat on the sofa colouring because everyone else was in the kitchen. Unbeknownst to Kelly, Chris' mom entered the living room to grab something from her bag and she noticed a 'stuffed animal' colouring. Kelly felt as if someone was watching her and looked up. "Opps," whispered Kelly.
