Dreamwatcher

Following what Destiny wrote for us: Part 3

"We met at the wrong time…

Wrong place….I was suppose

To go another path, I was never

To love you…yet I did…

We grow farther apart…though we

Try to be close….Stop it…it's impossible

For us to be together again. We made our

Destiny a long time ago…and

We must follow it…"

Author's Note: Ack..sorry, but Knuckles won't be in this one! This is mostly Sonic and Amy. Don't worry, they don't do any romantic stuff together. You'll be surprised at what happens when you read this fic! I was gonna bring Eggman here, but I didn't and couldn't find the room for him here. Next time, okay? Oh, in case anyone of you haven't figured it out…I like Big the cat and can't stand it when people portray him as an idiot! He is, by no means, dumb in any way, shape, or form. He just likes the simple life! So, when you see him in this fic, you'll see that he's just like anyone of us, a great caring cat, even if he is the butt of Froggy's jokes…but then again, Froggy jokes about everyone…and yes, the frog does talk. It's better that way. Enjoy!

*Sonic's POV*

I never saw Amy so sad in her and my entire life. When I first met her in the Little Planet, I saw a cheery pink hedgehog who had the biggest crush on me ever! She'd chase me down and give me the hug of death! It's been that way for about 4 or 5 years. She was 8 when I first met her. It's kinda weird when I did meet her…

7 years ago…

Sonic, a boy only 11 at the time, was packing up a few things in his backpack.

"Sonic, where are you gong?" Little tails arrived, only a child of 3.

"Oh, I'm going to Neverlake. Sonic answered, packing a couple of canned foods.

"Oh, you want to see the Little Planet?" Tails asked, showing his vast knowledge.

"You betcha!" Sonic smiled, "It looks cool, wanna come?"

"Nah." Tails shook his head, "I got to fix the Tornado, make it work better."

"Too bad." Sonic sighed.

"Do me a favor and take lots of pictures, Sonic." Tails tossed a camera at the blue hedgehog.

"No prob." he packed the camera in, "Well, I'm off, see ya!"

"Bye, Sonic!" Tails waved.

Sonic left Tails' workshop and spent many a day running to the Neverlake. It took a week to reach there, but when he did, he was glad he made it in time because he saw…the Little Planet. There was just one difference…it was chained. That was weird. The planet had a long chain running down to the ground. Sonic made it his business to check it out by going to where the chain was. Running, he found it was planted too deep in the ground and too heavy for he alone to pull it out. Sonic sighed and decided to go up the chain. Something stinky was up. Running up the chain was no problem for him.

Sonic reached a beautiful grassy plain. He didn't see any trace of evil.

"Maybe the chain's not a bad thing." Sonic scratched his head.

He was cut short from his pondering when he heard a piercing scream. Being the hero that he is, Sonic raced over to the problem. He stopped when he saw huge robots with a pink hedgehog as their hostage.

"Where are the Time Stones?" the robots asked.

"I don't know!" She cried out, "Leave me alone!"

"Not until you tell us where the Time Stones are!"

"NOOOO!" She struggled, but the robots were too strong.

"Hey, it's rude to hurt a lady!" Sonic pointed. He took a spindash and simply buzz sawed the robots until they were nothing but a pile of scrap metal.

"You okay?" Sonic asked the pink hedgehog. The little girl turned to face Sonic and her face was a bright red.

"You…you saved my life!" She gasped.

"Uh…yea." Sonic scratched his head, "I do that a lot…who are you?"

"I…I'm Amy Rose." the blushing pink hedgehog answered, "And you are…"

"Sonic's my name, destroying robots is my game!" Sonic proudly pointed to himself.

"So it is true." Amy gasped.

"True, what's true?" Sonic asked.

"I was destined to meet you …and I did!" Amy squealed, "I knew it! They told me so!"

"They?" Sonic scratched his head, "Who's they?"

"My tarot cards!" Amy smiled, "One day, they told me that I must leave to go to the Little Planet…there, I shall meet the one I'm destined to be with."

"Huh!?" Sonic stepped back.

"I would meet him during a time when the planet was in danger." Amy continued, "I saw the man who did this…he was fat and had the ugliest mustache ever!"

"Eggman!" Sonic growled, "I knew it! What does he want now!?"

"He wants the Time Stone." Amy answered.

"Time Stones!? What are Time Stones?!" Sonic practically yelled, almost begging for answers.

"They are the only sources of time in the Little Planet, a planet that has no time." Amy answered, "I fear this…Eggman might use it to his own greed and power."

"Well, Eggman's gonna have to go through me to get these stones!" Sonic slammed his fist down, "Amy, I need you to come with me so we can locate these stones!"

"Oh, I'll go anywhere with you, Sonic." Amy said in a dream voice, blushing once more.

"Uh…" Sonic grew nervous.

That's how I met Amy. Ever since then, she's been on my tail since. It's amazing what that girl did to get near me. Although she annoyed me a lot because of that, I was always glad that she was on the team. Her magic powers were helpful throughout our times. She started of cute, but she grew to be quite the lovely lady she is now. It was when she was about 13 when I noticed she no longer went ga-ga over me. I tried to force her into talking why, but she said she wanted love to come to her. Oy, some answer. I wanted to learn more…and maybe I'll get the chance today.

"Enjoying your ice cream, Amy?" Tails asked.

"Oh, it's delicious, Tails." Amy made a weak smile.

"Yea, but you barely ate it." Rouge commented, "It's starting to melt."

"I guess I'm not all that hungry." Amy sighed.

"But strawberry's your fave ice cream, Amy." Big came in.

"It' s also your fave as well, along with the gazillions types of ice cream flavors you like." the sarcastic frog, Froggy joked.

"Froggy!" Big came in.

"I'm just not that hungry." Amy commented.

"Well, let's do something else." Bark suggested.

"Yea, let's blow stuff up!" Bean cackled.

"We're not blowing up anything, you insane duck!" Rouge hissed.

"Ooh, saucy!" Bean smiled, "See, this is why I think you and I would make a perfect pair!"

"In your dreams, quack!" Rouge crossed her arms.

"Oh, yes…I often dream about the two of us together!" Bean smiled, getting closer to Rouge.

"Okay, why do I have to sit next to him?!" Rouge pointed to Bean.

"Would you rather sit with Lard of the Rings here?" Froggy pointed to Big.

"Froggy!" Big chirped in.

"I think we should go to Twinkle Park!" I stood up, "Rollar coasters and bumper cars will cheer Amy up, eh?"

"I second it!" Tails stepped in. Good ol' Tails, always there when I need him.

Everyone agreed and we headed for the park.

I always loved Twinkle Park. Sure, I had evil to rid of, but I always had plenty of time to have fun! Going to Twinkle Park was always a fave thing to do. If I'm lucky, sometimes, I go in for free since I'm the hero. Heh.

"Hey, we like to go to Twinkle Park." I came in, "All of us."

"Okay, hold on, here's your ticket, have fun." He was a teenager who, unfortunately, doesn't like his job, so he has a monotonous voice.

"Ummm…don't we have to pay?" Amy came in.

"Nah…cuz' he's Sonic…and he like…saves the world and stuff." He continued his monotonous speech.

"Let's go, guys…he's always like this." I pushed the gang in.

We went in several rides, Bark threw up in a couple. Except Rouge, we all won stuffed animals for Amy who was more then happy to give away some to the little kids since she had too many. Bumper cars were one of the best…though Big and Bark were told to get out since number one…they couldn't fit in the car…and number two…they kept bumping too hard, knocking people off their car. Hoo boy. I even took a stand and went on the Merry Go Round with Amy. The rest except Tails waited until we were done riding that! Needless to say, Amy was laughing a lot. I was glad because she was happy. Happy! I felt as though I did the job right…but was it enough?

It was almost sunset and I agreed to take Amy home which puzzled the others a bit. They all waved good-bye and I told Tails that I'll meet up with him at home soon. The sun was beautiful and it made Amy from pink to bright orange.

"So…umm…you had fun?" I asked.

"Yea, I did." Amy nodded, "Thanks."

"No problem." I smiled, "It's good to see you smile again."

"…Why are you doing this, Sonic?" Amy asked.

"No reason…I just want you to be happy." I came in, "I'm your friend, I'm worried."

"…Is there anything else?" Amy smiled a bit.

"Well…I…I kinda…want to know…why…why…" I took a deep breath, "…Why you…don't have…ya know…"

"Know what?" Amy looked at me and I blushed madly.

"Ya know…have that crush on me…anymore." I tried to hide my face, "You stopped….two years ago."

"I told you already, I want love to come to me." Amy answered. Not what I wanted to hear.

"Amy, I know there's something else." I stopped and she did as well, "Please…can't you tell me?"

"…"

"Please?" I blushed some more, "Don't make me beg!"

Amy sighed.

"Alright, alright." Amy sighed.

We both sat down on a bench.

"The Tarot cards told me…you're not the one I'm destined to me with." Amy answered. That was surprising. Most of the time, the cards are right. And believe me, I've seen some of their predictions come true!

" Well, if I'm not the one…who is?" I asked.

"They said…someone the opposite of me, complete opposite in both personality and magic." Amy answered again.

"So is that why you stop chasing me around like a giggling school girl?" I asked once more.

"Well, yea…that and I started loosing interest in you." Amy smiled a bit, "Perhaps I'm growing up."

"Well do you know where this lucky guy could be?" I grinned.

Amy stopped smiling and answered in a small voice…"Angel Island." I gasped. Angel Island. Then is it possible….maybe…Knuckles!? Heck, it was surprising enough that she was princess of the Miracle Planet and has just been reunited with her family, but now the cards tell her that she's destined to be with someone in Angel Island, which could be Knuckles!

"I… I…I have to go to Angel Island." Amy stood up, "But…but…what if it's someone I don't want?"

I could tell she didn't want Knuckles.

"Maybe the cards are wrong." I answered.

"The cards are never wrong." Amy answered.

"But didn't the cards say I was destined to be with you before!?" I pointed to myself.

"That was a mistake from my part." Amy sobbed a bit, "I thought it was you, I thought for years it was you…but the cards were merely trying to tell me…it wasn't you at all. I denied it…for a long time…then finally…accepted."

"Oh, Amy." I didn't know what to do…all I did was hug her, tightly.

"I don't want to…but I have to." Amy said while we hugged, "I…I need to go to Angel Island…I need to find my destiny…the person I belong with."

"I'll go with you." I smiled.

Amy wiped her tears and nodded.

We rode on Amy's magic carpet, the Dreamwatcher, so it didn't take us long to reach the island. It was dusk now, the sun almost down, but not quite. We landed on the city of Echidnaopolis. Man, it was some city. Despite the fact that Knuckles' people had renounced technology 400 years ago, their city was far advanced then almost anyone down below! Even more advance on the city of Necronopolis on the other side of the island where Remington's people dwelled, the Dark Legion.

"Okay…so…who do we look for?" I asked.

"Sonic…I wish to do this alone." Amy came in, "Please…just leave."

"…." I wanted to respect Amy's wishes, but I wanted to see how this would turn out…but, I already pushed Amy too far.

"Dreamwatcher will take you home." Amy said as I rode on it.

"and as for Dreamwatcher?" I asked, concerned for the carpet…despite the fact that it's a carpet.

"It knows the way home." Amy smiled.

"I wish you luck, Amy." I smiled.

"Thanks." Amy smiled back.

The carpet flew like a dream and soon, we departed the island. I was guilty to have left Amy alone and sad…but…I have to…for Amy's sake. My heart hurts for some reason. It felt like I lost a best friend, not Knuckles. I sighed as I passed the ocean. The sky was completely dark and stars brightly lit up the sky. I hung my head low. I was not destined to be with Amy…ever. It seems Amy left me by choice, not by the cards. Who is wrong, the cards…or Amy? Why am I asking all these questions…is it possible…that now…I'm in love…with Amy…especially when it's too little, too late for me to ever be with her?

To Be Continued…

Sonic is the attitude filled blue hog who's also the hero from evil. Never one to take things seriously, Sonic usually acts first before thinking, causing either help or hinder. Usually, Amy or Big has to back him down so he won't do something stupid. But Sonic is also true and loyal, as well as courageous. He has a heart of Gold and will always fight and help when he needs to. It's just recently that he is in love with Amy, though, he usually isn't one for emotions, but love is slowly starting to take over him…which could prove quite disastrous if Knuckles ever found out…
