Oh my gosh! Chaotic psycho takes too long so I'm righting this against my protest. sigh Oh and to all my fans thank you so much for supporting my work and bugging chaotic psycho! Thanx! In this story this is one part of the chapter is the only part that shows what the others are doing (a.k.a. "meanwhile").
Zero "rolled" through the metallic doors and into a room with cells. It threw Stephanie into one of them, locked the door and went to go tell Eggman that "Amy" was captured. Stephanie slowly got back up and rubbed her sore back.
"Stupid robot." Stephanie muttered. She walked over to the corner of her cell and sat down. Stephanie looked around. There were other cells that were password protected.
Well, this isn't gonna get better. Stephanie thought and closed her tired eyes and fell into a light sleep
Stephanie awoke to a door sliding open. She heard footsteps walk towards her cell. She quickly stood up, startled. She pressed her back against the wall and stared forward, scared of who she might see coming to her barred cell. Stephanie heard the footsteps grow closer and sighed in relief as saw Sonic well-known enemy, Eggman.
"It's nice to see you again Amy." Eggman smiled. He frowned as he looked up and down at her. "You've changed."
" I'm not Amy." Stephanie rolled her eyes. "My name is Stephanie… Speed." She was still getting used to her new name. Eggman growled then looked at Zero.
"I told you to bring Amy but you didn't! Thanks to you we have no bait to lure in Sonic!" he raised his fist and punched the robot, but then realized that was a mistake. As soon as his fist collided with the metal he felt pain. He grabbed his hand.
"Oh oh oh!" Eggman said jumping up and down.
Stephanie giggled. Eggman calmed down and then looked at Stephanie again.
"So, how come I haven't seen you before?" Eggman asked.
"I'm from earth." Stephanie answered.
"Have you come in contact with Sonic and his friends?" Eggman said. "How did you get here?"
"Yes I have and I used a chaos emerald." Stephanie said answering his questions in order.
"A chaos emerald?" Eggman's brows lifted. "May I see it?"
Stephanie Speed held up the black emerald that she had been keeping in the back pocket of her small black shirt.
"Interesting." Eggman gave a sly smile. "You may be useful…"
"What makes you think I would do anything for you?" Stephanie frowned. Eggman chuckled and pulled out a laser gun from his red coat's pocket.
"If you cherish your life," He smiled pointing the gun at Stephanie "then you will."
Stephanie paused staring at the gun. Would he really shoot me… I better not take that chance. She looked down disappointed in her decision.
"Fine." Stephanie looked up.
"Good." Eggman said. He returned the gun to his pocket and pressed in keys on the password pad.
The barred door opened slowly.
"You are aboard the Egg Carrier. You are restricted to your room and the main control room until you have proven you are worth my trust." Eggman said. "Decoe and Bocoe will show you to your room."
Two robots that Stephanie hadn't noticed walked up to her.
"I am Decoe." said the tall gold one.
"And I am Bocoe." said the short silver one.
"Follow us." Decoe said. Stephanie followed the two silently and after many hallways came to an empty room with white wall a double bed with green sheets and a small table lamp on a table.
Looks like a hospitable room… Stephanie said as she looked at the green sheets with disgust. The robots walked away talking to themselves. She turned to the room and walked in. Stephanie walked to the small window and looked out. They were slowly flying over a forest. That must be Green Forest Stephanie thought. It looked so beautiful and green. On earth she had rarely seen forests that looked this way.
She looked at the sky and saw shining stars. They were the brightest stars she had ever seen. On earth, since she lived in a city, she didn't get to see many stars because of the city lights. She walked away from the window and closed the door. She sat on the hard bed and she slowly took off her high knee boots that she had become fond of and put them beside the bed. She straightened her small black skirt and crawled underneath the cold covers. She stared at the ceiling. I wonder what Rouge is doing now…
Mean while
Rouge quickly flew to Knuckles' island. She didn't know where else to go. Everyone was probably sleeping. She knew Knuckles was awake because he was guarding the Master Emerald. Sweat became to form on her forehead and she began to fly faster, using the ocean wind to speed up. She saw the island and a small smile appeared on Rouge's face.
Soon she landed on the sandy beach of the floating island. She ran to the center of the island and found the shrine. She looked at the Guardian with worried eyes.
"Stephanie's been captured!" She quickly said.
"What!" Knuckles straightened up from his laid back position.
"Zero took her." Rouge replied.
"I thought Amy destroyed it a while back?" Knuckles said.
"Eggman must have rebuilt it." Rouge answered. "But that's not the point, I don't know where they went!"
Knuckles sighed.
"Can't this wait until morning?" Knuckles said calming himself down.
"But-" Rouge started to say.
"No, I'm tired, your tired and that doesn't help tracking. Have you told any of the others yet?" Knuckles asked.
"No, they were sleeping." Rouge said.
"Ok." Knuckles saw Rouge's panicked look. "It's ok Rouge. I have never seen you this worried before."
Rouge quickly changed her expression to a relaxed one. Damn, there goes some of my reputation.
"It's just she is new here." Rouge said.
"She kinda knows this place, remember? She has played our video games…" Knuckles was slightly weirded out by the fact that they were popular on earth and had their own games.
"Look, if it makes you fell better, you can sleep her tonight." Knuckles said shyly. Rouge smiled."That sounds good." Rouge walked to one of the stone steps and made her self comfortable. "Good night, Knuxie."
Knuckles cringed at that nickname.
"Good night, Batty Girl." Knuckles said making a come back and went back to his relaxing position. Rouge just giggled and closed her eyes.
