AMY'S POV
Waves gently splashed against the shore. The bright sun shone high overhead, spreading its warmth over the sand and cool waves. A few wispy clouds were dotted across the peaceful sky above the serene beach. Mixed in with the scenery were people going about their business.
"Hmm…I wonder where Sonic is," I sighed, sitting upon a small old dock, playing with a small jewel in my hand. I glanced around, looking for the speedy blue hedgehog. "He said he'd be here!" At least, I overheard him say that. I felt almost ready to give up by then, seeing no trace of him anywhere. Until…
"Tails! Where do you think you're going?" I, surprised, quickly spun around and saw Sonic and Tails, his fox friend, running around. Sonic was more of chasing Tails, however. I paid no attention to that, though.
"Sonic!" I shouted at him as I stood up. I didn't think he could hear me so I ran towards him, trying my hardest to keep up. I kept getting closer to him, and eventually I did catch up.
"Amy!" Sonic stopped in his tracks and turned to face me, a surprised look on his face. "What do you want? How did you find out I was here?"
"Oh, I can tell these things," I smiled at him. I think I noticed him edge back a little bit, but I tried to ignore it. Then, much to his surprise, I hugged him, my hand firmly gripping the sparkling gem I had. "Sonic! Have you been ignoring me?" Sonic glared at me.
"Look, I have no time for this. Why can't you shut up and stop being annoying for once? I have to find something and I'd like you to stay out of my way!" He pulled out of my grip and continued chasing after Tails the Fox. Sometimes I wonder why Sonic tries to ignore me…
"Please, Sonic! Wait up," I shouted while chasing after him. "I think I found what you wanted!" The small jewel I had was gripped in my hand. I thought it was one of the Chaos Emeralds. I ran faster and faster but Sonic was just too fast for me. I fell to the ground, panting.
"Please…" My sadness turned into anger at Sonic. "Why can't you just wait and listen to me for once?" I gave the stupid emerald a strong toss, hoping that it would stay unseen. I sniffled as I started to cry. At times like those I wondered why I even liked Sonic. He could be such a jerk sometimes!
Usually somebody would think that he was a pretty nice guy. He saved the world just a couple days before; he even destroyed the Biolizard once and for all! I just wanted to help him out a little since I heard he lost one of the Chaos Emeralds.
'I shouldn't get so upset…'
I carefully stood up, balancing myself, and started the long walk back to my apartment in Station Square. The afternoon sun was getting to me and I was starting to sweat. I covered my eyes with one hand to keep the bright sun out of my eyes. I was almost there when I heard something out of the ordinary.
"Ugh…" I stopped. I was in the park in Station Square when I heard a quiet voice. Even in my anger I was still willing to see who was talking.
"Could someone please help?" I quickened my pace as I walked around the park, hoping to find whoever it was. I heard a soft, pained mumble when I looked behind a sturdy oak tree. There, on the ground, I saw someone whom I looked upon in disbelief.
"Shadow!"
A black hedgehog with red stripes…The presumably dead Shadow was hurt, lying on the ground before my eyes. Even though I didn't know him too well I still wanted to help him.
"Shadow? How did you stay alive? Everyone thinks you're dead!" I asked in disbelief. While I was still surprised, I couldn't think of anything better to do than to pick him up and get him somewhere safer.
"Does it matter?" I heard him mumble to me. I didn't say anything else to him right then. I was more than a little surprised. Wasn't it just yesterday that I was at a small memorial service? The day before wasn't I upset becuase everyone thought he died?
A/N: Thank you so much for reading this far! This is my first Sonic fic ever and I'd really love for you to review. It inspires me to update. Anyway, I'd love to see what you think of this story! I don't have it all planned out so if you have any suggestions tell me.
