After taking a break to write Desires, I shall now resume the story. And I'm starting to get a clue how the story will go. Wipee!
Bam! Amy brought her hammer down on yet another one of her Sonic dolls. She had been destroying them all morning. She never wanted to see that cheating fake Sonic ever again. She stepped back to look at her work. Bits and pieces of decapitated Sonic dolls littered the floor. Her Sonic rug was ripped to shred, as was any other Sonic merchandise. She looked over at Eno, who had been silently watching.
"Are you sure that was a good idea?" Eno asked her.
"Well, I'm calm now, and I've completely abolished my Sonic collection. I feel a lot better."
"If you say so," Eno said with a sigh. One thing definetly hadn't changed since they had last seen each other: her temper.
"I'm going to go get a new rug," Amy decided, grabbing her purse. "You coming with me?"
"Sure," Eno said, following Amy out the door. He had an odd feeling about this. He didn't tell her, she probably had enough on her mind. But Eno decided it would be best to stay cautious.
"Ooh, how about this one?" Amy said, showing up in a purple dress. Even though they had left to buy a rug, Amy had ended up going to the new clothes shop also. Finally, she had someone who would stay and help her shop instead of running off.
"Looking nice," Eno confirmed at her dress, giving an o.k. sign. Amy went back in the dressing room, soon coming out in her regular clothes, the dress in her arms.
"Come on, we're checking out now." Eno gave a sigh of relief. Even though he was staying with Amy, he did not like shopping. Not one bit. As Amy paid for the dress, Eno noticed two people staring at her. A purple cat, and a red echidna who was trying to carry something heavy. A bed or something. There was an aura of power around both of them. "Emerald guardians," Eno concluded in his head. The echidna seemed fit, most likely training often. And the cat possesed fire powers, an energy inside of her, not a magic. As Amy finished paying off the dress, she looked over at the two animals.
"Hey, it's Knuckles and Blaze," she said. "I wonder what they're doing here." Amy and Eno went out of the store, Amy running up to the cat.
"Hi Blaze!" Amy said as she caught up to the cat. "Hi Knux."
"Hello Amy," Blaze greeted in reply. Knuckles merely turned his head, obviously more concentrated in carrying his package.
"What are you guys doing around here?" Amy asked. Knuckles absolutely hated shopping, and Blaze never really shopped much either. The two guardians exchanged a glance.
"Well," Blaze began, "Knuckles needed some new furniture for his house. So he asked me to come so he wouldn't screw up the shopping." Knuckles shot a look at Blaze, but at leas she had come up with an excuse. If Amy knew they were helping Sonic, she would flip out, as she probably hadn't fully recovered from that.
"Who's that guy?" Knuckles asked, trying to change the conversation.
"This is Eno, an old friend of mine," Amy said happily. Blaze and Eno shook hands.
"As she said, my name is Eno," Eno said.
"Blaze, pleased to meet you," she replied kindly, "and that's Knuckles." Knuckles waved a bit, soon returning to hauling the furniture. Blaze felt an odd energy coming from Eno, but it wasn't at all like the emerald's power, or any other for that matter. But he soon removed his hand, as Amy resumed talking.
"So, who's guarding the Master Emerald?" Amy asked Knuckles.
"We had Tikal do it while we were gone," Knuckles said. "I better check up on her. I hope she isn't hanging out with Shadow's brother or something." Knuckles picked up his cell phone, dialing up the home number.
"Hello, pick up cuzy," Knuckles muttered impatiently. (If you didn't know, I heard Tikal is his cousin.) "Dammit, why isn't she picking up? I taught her how to use the stupid phone." Instead of Tikal, Knuckles instead got the answering machine play in his ear.
"Yo, Knuckles here. Sorry, I'm busy at the moment. Leave a message, but nothing stupid, 'kay? Later." Beep.
"I don't sound that stupid on the answering machine," Knuckles mumbled. "C'mon Blaze. Let's get this over to Sonic's house, and then see what's so important taht Tikal can't answer the goddam phone."
"Wait a minute," Amy said, her voice getting louder, "You said it was for Knuckle's place, not Sonic!"
"Well, you see-"
"You liars!" Amy screamed, as heads began to turn towards the ruckas. "So you're helping Sonic and his girlfriend! Fine then, I guess you guys are against me too! Come on, Eno!" Amy grabbed his arm, dragging him back towards her appartment. Eno mouthed a small "sorry" to Knuckles and Blaze as the onlookers continued to stare. Only Eno managed to notice as tears fell down Amy's face. Now almost everyone who had been her friend was on Sonic's side. Now there was no turning back, she would ditch him once and for all.
Dang...Amy is so upset. Maybe she has issues? (Dodges hammers thrown by obsessed Amy fans.) Sorry! Anyway, where is Tikal? Find out next chapter!
