Chapter 20 Listen to your heart

Sonic flew down slowly as he searched for her. Sure enough he found her. She was at the very bottom.

She was laying there, lifelessly, her clothes were ripped and she had scratches all over her body and there was

blood all over her.

Sonic flew down slowly. When he reached her he bent down beside her and stroked her bloody face.

Sonic picked her up and flew into the air with her.

Looking at her, he remembered what she had said. "All I wanted was you.." "I love you.." "But I won't let you die."

Lightning flashed.

Sonic squeezed her a little," I wont let you die eather."

Super Sonic summoned the Chaos Emeralds to him, in a way he wasn't sure what he was doing but he felt that his heart did. He felt that if he followed what his heart was saying, everything would be all right. The Chaos Emeralds glowed brightly as they began to float, floating circulerly around Sonic. Sonic lifted Aurora up, then she floated out of his hands. The Chaos Emeralds flew up to her and began to circle around her until a bright light surrounded her. There was a huge flash, then it started to fade away and the Chaos Emeralds scattered.

Aurora gently flew back into his arms. Sonic slowly flew down to the ground. Please be all right. He thought as he felt his feet touch the ground.

"Aurora?" he whispered.

Her eyelids fluttered until they opened.

Her voilet eyes tottered back and forth confused, she was a little surprised to wake up in the arms of a shiney yellow hedgehog, but when she looked into his eyes, even though they were red, something seemed familar, "Sonic?"

Sonic grinned, "Hi there!"

"Sonic!" Aurora cried, hugging him tightly. Tears ran down her cheeks, "Don't let go."

Sonic smiled holding back his own tears, "I won't, never."

They both smiled and laughedThen Aurora looked deeply into his eyes, as he did with her, with nothing but seriousness on her face..

"I love you, Sonic." she said, putting a hand on his cheek.

His eyes closed half way and he smiled, "I love you too, Aurora."

Aurora sat up, hunching her shoulders, bent forward, and took his face in her hands and kissed him, expertly slowly opening and closing her mouth. He returned her kiss and slid his tongue in. The rain trickled down their faces and some of it got into their mouths, but they didn't care. They just kept kissing. They both continued to kiss each other slowly, slowly but passionatly.

"Come on Tails! That's cheating!" Sonic laughed as the pyrmaid of cards he had built shattered to the floor.

"You didn't seem to mind doing that when you came here for the X Tornado!" Tails shot back.

"Okay, okay." The blue hedgehog said waving his hands nervously.

When Tails looked away Sonic flicked his pyramid and it fell.

"Sonic!" Tails said looking back all depressed.

Sonic chuckled, "Sorry Tails. Hey, did Aurora finish with her shower?"

"She been finished," Tails answered, "She's waiting for you at the beach."

"WHAT! Why didn't you tell me!"

Sonic scurried to his feet, tripping over the scattered cards as he tried to run out of the room.

Sonic quickly ran out the door and ran as fast as he could to Emerald Coast.

When Sonic made it there he found her standing by the shore line letting the water coming in splash against her.

Sonic was relieved, she hadn't decided to go far out into the water or he would never have gone over.

"Hey, Aurora!" Sonic called, waving.

She looked over her shoulder, "Sonic!"

When Sonic made it to her he picked her up and spun her around. They both laughed, then he set her down, but still held her.

"So what's up?" he asked.

"Sonic," she began nervously, "there's something I have to tell you."

His heart began to pound nervously, "W-what?"

"Well, I-I wanted to come here so I could tell you, good bye."

Sonic was shocked, "What! Why?"

"I have to go away for a while."

"But why?"

She was hesitent, "Sonic, I'm still not among the living, but I'm not dead either. I want to see if there's a way for me to fully come back to life, then I'll come back."

Sonic was afraid to ask, "And if you don't?"

"If I don't well..." Aurora took his face in her hands,"I don't think I should come back. I don't want you to be stuck with a dead girl. It's not fair to you. I-"

Sonic took her hands, "Aurora, I don't care what you are, all I know is that I've never felt like this before in my whole life." Sonic was finally comfortable to say it, "I love you"

Aurora smiled shyly, "Well," she started, swinging their holding hands inside and out, "I guess I could come back for a little while." she teased, "Just to see what your up to."

Sonic smiled.

"Well," she said, looking over her shoulder at the sunset behind her, "this is it."
She turned to go.

Sonic became very nervous, he didn't want her to go, when would they see each other again? Where would she go? What if something happened to her? He was very afraid. Afraid for her.

"A-Aurora," he called nervously, with every intention of stopping her.

She turned back around, sensing how he felt, as if she had read his thoughts,"I have to do this Sonic, I have to at least try. But don't worry Sonic," she said walking up to him, "If you ever miss me, or if something happened to me." Aurora put a hand on his chest, "Listen to your heart." she smiled.

Sonic wasn't sure what she meant but he would some day.

Aurora grabbed the scruff of his neck and pulled him toward her, with that serious look in her eyes, and kissed him.

When their kiss ended she said, "Good bye, Sonic."

With that she turned and flew off into the sunset.

Sonic smiled as he watched her fly away.

Good bye is never a happy thing of course. Especially when it's someone you really care about.

Little did Sonic know that he would meet up with Aurora six months later, but even if he would have never seen her again something like a drum pounded inside of him, something that said, "Tomorrow will be another adventure and that love will keep me going."

I know there's something in the wake of your smile.

I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.

You've built a love but that love falls apart.

Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart

when he's calling for you.

Listen to your heart

there's nothing else you can do.

I don't know where you're going

and I don't know why,

but listen to your heart

before you tell him goodbye.

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.

The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.

They're swept away and nothing is what is seems,

the feeling of belonging to your dreams.

And there are voices

that want to be heard.

So much to mention

but you can't find the words.

The scent of magic,

the beauty that's been

when love was wilder than the wind.

THE END?

Authores note:

If finally over. I'm kind of sad about it though. I really enjoyed writing this Fanfic. It's my favorite one!

I'm thinking of writing a sequel but I'm not sure. Maybe. I hope the last few chapters were ok. I was really worried they were crappy. But I don't know. I enjoyed writing them.

You've probably guessed I had the song "Listen to your heart." stuck in my head when I was writing this chapter that's what I was thinking about when I wrote it. (Except when I did the card thing again with Tails) If I could have I would have made it so that songs playing when you read this. Hehe

Just incase your like, "What's the point of this story?" this story is just a little adventure with some romance in it. Just something fun for ya to read. I really don't have a HUGE plot in the thing. But even though it wasn't the greatest I hope you enjoyed it.

So anyway, I hope you enjoyed my story. Thanks for reading and I really look forward to your review.

Thank you!
