Chapter two: About Starr
"So, Starr," Amy said excitedly, "now that Sonic finally arrived, tell us, what brings you here to Central City?" The toucan didn't answer right away. She looked around a little as if she'd forgotten.
"Uh," she started to say. Tails wanted to know something.
"Starr, did you come here on accident?" he asked her. Starr perked up as if she remembered.
"Yeah! That's exactly it!" she exclaimed, "I remember struggling around in the water and then I blacked out, then I was in here!"
"Who are you, what do you want, and why are you here?" Bokkun cried coming out of the bathroom with toilet paper stuck to his foot. Everybody stared at him.
"I think we've established that already," Knuckles said.
"Oh, well you've got a message from Dr. Eggman!" Bokkun chirped.
"OH JOY! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ALL DAY!" Shadow screamed sarcastically excited.
"Well, good!" Bokkun said pulling a TV out of his sack. The TV turned on and the message started.
"Brzzt bzzt… Is it on?" Eggman said through the little television.
"Ah, greetings! I see you've got a new little friend! To welcome our newcomer, I will have Bokkun perform a cat food commercial."
"Yep!" Bokkun said then paused, "WHAT? DOCTOR, YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!"
"Bokkun, don't be rude."
Bokkun groaned and started a little happy dance singing…"Meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow, Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow! BUY CAT FOOD! It's delicious!"
Then he pulled out a can of cat food and licked it.
"EW! HOW DO CATS EAT THIS STUFF?" he shrieked yarping up cat food.
"I think it's tasty," Blaze said coming from no where, "oh, hi, Starr!" And flew off.
"Okay… I think the author is going nuts," Vector said.
(Back on an unknown planet)
"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" bloomacncheez screams. "I LOVE SONIC RIDERS! I LOVE JET! WEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I KNOW! I THINK I'LL WRITE A STORY ABOUT… CAT FOOD! 'Meow meow meow meow…'"
My hedgehog, Sonic (who we recently discovered was a girl) shook her head.
"Man, I don't even know you anymore," she sighed.
"Cat food?"
"No."
"I love Jet?"
"NO! YOU LOVE ME, DANGIT!"
"I know that… but can I still love Jet?"
"Yeah sure. Go nuts. (As if you weren't nuts to begin with.)"
"WEEEEEEEEE! YAY! I LOVE JET! I LOVE JET! I LOVE JET! I LOVE JET! I LOVE JET! I LOVE JET-!"
(back on Mobius)
"Somebody needs to stop playing that game…" Sonic sighed every time he heard "I LOVE JET!" come from the far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far away planet. (Whew.)
"Oh, and I have a little something for you too," Eggman said.
KABOOOOOOOOOOM!
"Aha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Bokkun giggled and flew away.
"Uh, sorry about that, Starr…" Amy apologized. Starr coughed and smiled.
"Don't worry about it, I've had worse," she said painfully.
"Well, you were saying?" Shadow asked.
"Uh, well, I'm a traveler," Starr said. Cream got very excited.
"Oh really? What's it like?" she asked anxiously.
"Well, it's really neat! A lot of the places are the same though," Starr said.
"Yeah, but you still enjoy it right?" Sonic asked.
"Of course! 'The wanderer of the world!' That's what my friends call me," Starr chirped.
"So when did you leave home to start travelling?" Charmy asked her.
"Well, I'm eighteen now, so that means I've been travelling for… sixteen years!" Starr exclaimed.
"SIXTEEN? YOU MUST'VE BEEN LIKE, TEN WHEN YOU LEFT HOME!" Charmy screamed. Tails whispered something into Charmy's ear. "Oh," he giggled, "TWO!"
"Don't you miss your family?" Cream asked. Starr shook her head.
"Chao chao?" Cheese asked.
"No. I don't," Starr said sadly.
"You're an orphan. Aren't you?" Amy asked her.
"No, I have family."
"Well, why don't you miss them?"
"You ever wondered why I ran away?"
"You ran away?"
"Yeah, home was a boring life and I was curious about life outside our land," Starr explained.
"But…"
"Enough about me! What about you guys?" Starr interrupted quickly.
After the Sonic team finished introducing themselves and stuff like that, Vector was anxious to ask her something.
"STARR, DO YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND?" he blurted out. Amy, Cream, and Starr giggled.
"No, I don't, Vector," Starr laughed. Vector, Espio, and Charmy sighed a sigh of relief.
"So how long do you want to stay here?" Tails asked, "Cuz' it won't hurt our feelings if you want to stay here."
"Um, you have anything exciting here?"
"You bet! Water slides, Lakes, mountains, beautiful flowers-."
"Trees? Rocks?" Starr asked.
"Uhh… yes…" Tails said making a weirded out face.
"Great! Then I want to stay!" Starr said excitedly.
"Okay… great, but why are rocks and trees so fascinating?" Amy asked.
"Amy, the animals nowadays are way too industrialized, you don't know how little nature there is," Starr sighed.
"'Industrialized?' Tails asked, "Vector, you don't think this is Eggman's work… do you?"
"Ah, maybe, but who cares? Starr is staying with us!" he squeaked.
"So, do you want to stay with us?" Cream asked.
"Uh, is that okay?"
"Of course!" Amy, Cream and Cheese squealed. (Except Cheese said, "Chao chao" like she usually does.)
"Well, thanks guys!"
(That night…)
"Good night Cream, good night, Cheese, good night, Starr," Amy called to her roommates.
"Good night, Amy!"
"Chao Chao!"
"Good night, girls!" Starr called. She pulled her covers up to her neck and lay down, deep in thought, "I wonder if they'll find me out…"
