Blood of the Demon - By SWT

Chapter III - Beautiful


"So, let me get this straight…you're saying that there's an evil being, who was once in liege with Sameo and was also sealed away, is now out and about?" Knuckles asked for what seemed like the hundredth time that hour.

Tarosamo sighed and nodded, rubbing his head. "Yes, Knuckles."

Knuckles fell on the couch in exasperation. "What does he want with us?"

"I honestly don't know," that got a growled from the red echidna.

Rouge rolled her eyes. "Calm down, knucklehead," she then turned to Tarosamo. "What else can you tell us about him, Taro?"

Tarosamo stood up and made his way to the window to look out. After about a minute of silence, he spoke, not taking his eyes away from the vast forest that was a few yards from the house. "His name is Kamakani Zuberi. All I know is that he has inhumane powers. I first met him when I was a kid, a long time ago." Tarosamo blinked when he saw a shadow moved around in the forest. He looked again and nothing was there.

"Which brings us back to my original question; what does he want with us?" Knuckles asked, getting annoyed as it was. He crossed his arms and tilted his head back so his eyes were locked on a spot on the ceiling.

Rouge glared at him. "Knuckles! He said he didn't know!"

Knuckles growled at her but remained silent and kept his eyes fixed on the same spot. Tarosamo stared into the outer world, deep in thought. In fact, he was so deep in thought, he lacked to realize the single figure swooping down. He closed his blue eyes and pressed his head against the cool glass window.

The dark figure moved closer until a shadow loomed over the unaware echidna. A toothy smirked broke out on the figure's hidden face as it brought one finger to the side of the window and tap, causing the echidna to nearly jump out of his skin. His eyes snapped wide open, to only stare in the blue eyes of a familiar female bat.

Tarosamo clenched his heart as it was threatening to burst from his ribcage and he glared at the laughing figure.

Rouge looked up. "Slice! What are you doing here?" she asked once she took notice of the gasping Tarosamo and the bat on the other side of the window. She went to the door and opened it, bringing her sister in a tight hug.

Slice and Rouge had gotten along great the pass few years, almost like a real family now. Rouge and Slice stepped back from each other, grinning. "Can't I just come and see my baby sister?"

Rouge thought for a moment. "No, not without wanting something."

Slice laughed. "Well, it's great to see you too, sis." she walked right pass Rouge and into the house. She gave a small nod in the direction of Knuckles and smiled sheepishly at Tarosamo.

Rouge peeked around the side of the door. "So, where's my favorite nephew?" she asked, seeing that Slice was alone. She turned to her sister, shutting the door.

Slice flopped down next to Knuckles, earning a slight growl of irritation from her brother-in-law, before glancing up at her younger sibling. "He's home, asleep right now. I swear, that child is a real headache." Rouge shook her head, grinning as she took a seat next to her sister. Slice gave a curious look to the two males, noting their forlorn expression. "So…why look so solemn, boys? What's up?"

Tarosamo frowned. "I fear we have some trouble heading our way."


Station Square
6:30 PM

Sonic nervously paced outside the apartment, rehearsing what he was going to say to Amy Rose tonight. He was nervous, no doubt about that, but was he ready for such a commitment? He loved her and would die for her given the chance. He wanted to spend the rest of eternity with her, if they could live that long. He would do just about anything for the pink hedgehog, even though she can be annoying once in a while and clingy. But he love her, nonetheless.

He took a deep breath, gathering all the strength he could muster as he stood up straight, straightening out the blue tux he was given to wear for this special occasion. Quickly feeling his pocket to make sure the ring was tucked away self and soundly, he knocked on the door to the apartment. It took a few moments before the person he was waiting for answer.

As the door open, his breath caught in his throat. When the door finally opened fully, what he saw was not what he expected, but more so. There stood Amy Rose, the precious pink hedgehog, dressed fully for the occasion. She was wearing a beautiful elegant sparkling red gown that cling to her body, showing off every curve her body had. Two long slips ran up to mid-thigh, showing off her long pink legs. To complete it, she had a lovely necklace on and ruby stub earring in each ear.

Amy Rose had really grown within the years he had known her. She grew from an annoying little fan girl who followed him around and he wouldn't even give her the time of day to a full blown beautiful woman. So much has changed since than, their relationship being a prime example.

Amy smiled sweetly at her boyfriend's gawking expression. "Sonic!" She gave him a hug. She soon released him and noticed the look on his face. "Sonic? Are you okay?"

Sonic snapped from his dazed and smile at her. "Yeah, I'm fine. You're beautiful."

Amy blushed. "Do you really think so, Sonic?"

Sonic grinned and winked, offering his arm to her. "I know so, Ames! Lets go, I already made the reservations."

"Where are we going, Sonic?" She asked as they made their way down the stairs into the front lobby and out the door.

Sonic smirked as he stopped in front of a limousine. "It's a surprise." He than opened the door to the limo, gesturing for her to enter.

Amy stared in shock. "Sonic! Is this a limousine? But…how could you afford it?"

Sonic shook his head. "Don't worry about it Ames. Get in before we be late."

The pink hedgehog got into the limo, her excitement bubbling inside. She could almost feel that something good was going to happen today.

Sonic made his way to the other side of the limo and hopped in with a grin of his blue face. "Driver, you know where to go!"

Twenty minutes later, the limo pulled up in front of a shining five-star restaurant, Maisonette. The limo driver stepped out of the vehicle and quickly walked to the other side to allow the two hedgehogs to exit.

Sonic was the first to get out as he offered Amy and hand. Once she was out of the limo, her eyes sparkled at the sight of the large restaurant before her. "Wow, Sonic! Is this your surprise?"

Sonic nodded sheepishly as the two walked up to the main entrance where they were greeted by the doorman. The doorman smiled to the two as he opened the door. Sonic and Amy walked into the restaurant, arms linked, and gasped.


Someplace, far out into the Milky Way, a dark figure lurked about; plotting to destroy those he sealed him away those years ago. He wasn't about to fail this time. He has help. Good, decent help, and right now, that help was out there taking out those annoying creatures.

Knuckles didn't stand a chance.

Sameo grinned.

Don't worry; I'll try to get the next chapter out soon, since I seem to have gotten my muse back! (Happy days!) Review, much love!
