I might need to tell you… that my character at times is a complete dummy at times, and at others, smart as Tails. This is one of those times where he is stupid. See why.
Chapter 2: Telling Sonic
My room, 1:30 PM
Countdown to Party: 3 hours
Alright, now how do I tell the blue blur? Throw a rock at him? No. Stick dynamite up his butt? No way. Trip him and say "See you next fall"? No. Damn it, it's so hard to choose. Where IS he to begin with? Maybe I should just flat-out tell him. That's it!
I knew at once how to tell him. I had been sitting in my room the whole time thinking. Now that I knew, I just had to find Sonic. But, the trouble was I had no idea where he was. I decided to check out his usual hangouts, and then I had to ask around near where he lived. Tails was out of the question, since he would hit me with a monkey wrench and gas me.
I began to run out of my room at top speed, remembering that in three hours' time, Amy would announce the winners of a sick game (in my humble opinion) called "Hearts of the Rose". Here's how it worked, she placed the name in a bingo spinner, or whatever it's called, spun it as hard as she could for 30 solid seconds, and she had shown me how fast she could spin it, which, quite frankly, scared the living daylights out of me. After that was said and done, she randomly selected a name from the spinner, read it, and she and the male who had won gets four minutes trapped in a closet. Thankfully, she didn't include me, but she had included Shadow. When I heard she excluded me, my stomach leapt in joy. However, when she said she included Shadow himself in this sick game, my jaw had almost come off in shock. I dashed at about Sonic's speed out, which would scare Sonic later on today to the park, unbeknownst of just who he was with…
The Station Square Restaurant, 1:32 PM, Sonic's POV
Countdown: 2 hours 58 minutes
Damn, she's beautiful today, despite the fact she's worn those clothes out… why must I be attracted all of a sudden. Why?
"Sonic?" Amy said from across the table. I gazed into her jade eyes, which were lustrous as if gem encrusted at birth. I couldn't help but wonder if there were jewels in her eyes, but even if there were, Rouge would have probably stolen them by now, leaving all luster for no one.
"Uh… what?" I said, dazed from daydreaming. I was too preoccupied staring out the window, gazing up at the clouds.
"You've been daydreaming again, haven't you?" she asked, it clearly showed in her eyes that she would whack me over the head with her Piko-Piko Hammer if I wasn't careful enough.
"No… I was staring out the window looking at the clouds."
"Precisely."
"Hey!"
By now, the meal was done, and so we left, for the next destination, unbeknownst of a certain fox's secret. Of course, this wasn't exactly a date, it was more of a hanging out to me, we were only friends as far as I was concerned.
My POV, the Arcade, 1:56 PM
Countdown: 2 hours 34 minutes
Damn it! He's not here! Ah well. Take that you stupid GHOST!
I was in the Station Square arcade, playing Pacman, and got a power pellet, and chomped the ghosts in succession, scoring a total of three thousand two hundred points, as well as fifty points from the power pellet, and two hundred twenty in regular pacdots. I currently was on the tenth installment, going on the eleventh, with a total of two million five hundred and three thousand four hundred seventy points (2,503,470), on two lives left. I was two thousand away from the all-time high score, and I was going to beat it. I chomped down the last pacdot of the level, and moved on to level eleven.
Almost got it—almost got it… stay on target, stay on target…YES!
I had done it with two million six hundred thousand points.
"YES! The new Pacman champion!" I shouted out, panting. I let the last two lives out, and signed in my name, C-O-R-E-Y. The score I beat was Sonic's. As if life was against me, a certain blue hedgehog ran in, with a companion, but I was stupid enough not to see the companion. I ran out to the park. I'd figured he'd be there.
Sonic's POV, the Arcade, 2:00 PM
Countdown: 2 hours 30 minutes
What was that multi-colored blurring? Oh well, guess I'll never know.
I walked up to the Pacman console, and put in one quarter, but before I did, I took a look at the high score table, only to see a name other than my own at the top. It read "Corey". I sighed.
Of course, you realize, this means war!
I pulled a face, of course, being the obsessive possessive Amy is, who knows everything about me, gave me a look that read well, if you must. This high score was going to be hell to beat… but I had to try. I didn't know the person who made the high score was looking for me.
My POV, the Park, 2:30 PM
Countdown: 2 hours
Dammit Sonic, where are you?
I was running around at the park, trying desperately to find the blue hero, even though I knew he was at the Arcade, I was waiting until I was sure I could tell him, without falling over laughing. I yawned, and sat on a bench to relax.
Where could he be?
My eyes shut tightly, and I drifted off to sleep. I began to dream, that Tails and Amy were kissing… very passionately… in a closet. I was trapped in there as well.
"I need an adult…" I mumbled. I shook myself awake. I realized I had a half hour before the little sick game began. My eyes darted, and laid to rest on a blue streak headed toward Emerald Coast. I followed.
Sonic's POV, Emerald Coast, 4:05:34 PM
Countdown: 24 minutes 26 seconds
I and Amy sat on the beach, looking out at the ocean. It seemed to be an okay view, and then I had a feeling, a premonition.
We're being watched…
My thoughts were interrupted when a bush rustled.
"Who's there?" I interrogated.
My POV, Emerald Coast, 4:07 PM
Countdown: 23 minutes
Time to tell!
"Sonic, Tails is keeping something from you. Truth be told, he absolutely loves Amy!" I said aloud, eyes closed.
"Really?" he asked, surprised.
"Yes. Got it straight from the horse's mouth, also known as Tails."
"Oh my god… really?" asked an intrigued third voice.
"Who else is here?" I questioned, eyes peeling open, horrified at what I saw…
"Amy!" I shouted, shocked.
Once again, a cliffy. I am going to have to leave you hangin' on by a thread at what happens next. Until Chapter 3, R&R PLEASE! I BEG OF YOU!
