The Hard Road Towards Love v.2

CH 1

It was nine in the morning when young Astrid awoke. She stretched as she yawned. She got up and got dressed, and made her way to Shadow and Rouge.

Shadow and Rouge were her best friends, Shadow and Astrid were creations of Eggman's Grandfather. They were created to cause destruction to Mobius. During the time of their creation, they befriended a young girl by the name of Maria. The three of them were content with their friendship until one day, G.U.N had came, Eggman's grandfather was arrested, Both Astrid and Shadow were sealed away and Maria was shot, leaving Astrid and Shadow in a deep depression and hatred that stewed for years.

Soon, Eggman had released them, letting them cause havoc once again. They met Rouge along the way and the three of them were partners in their small mission, but before their mission was completed, Sonic stepped in and snapped Astrid and Shadow out of their deep seeded anger and depression.

Now, the trio go out and collect the emeralds and help out Sonic and his friends when needed. At the moment, they had the red and green ones.

Astrid flopped down at a bench as she approached her friends.

"So what's the plan?" She asked.

"We'll try to sneak in if we can, and if that doesn't work, we'll use force." Shadow explained.

Astrid nodded.

Soon, they made their way to G.U.N facility and noticed that it was heavily guarded.

"We're going to have to use force.." Rouge stated.

Shadow narrowed his eyes. "It would seem so.."

Soon, the trio started to fight their way in, determined to find the emerald.

XXXXXXX

'...In other news, currently there seems to be a huge riot going on in G.U.N Facility, from what we can see it seems to be three people making their way through, their identities seem to be Rouge The Bat, Shadow The Hedgehog, and Astrid Nebula Rose once again…'

A growl was heard as the T.V. was turned off and the front door opened and closed.

~Outside of G.U.N facility~

As Astrid, Shadow, and Rouge walked out with another emerald, they noticed Sonic there, not looking too happy.

"What do you want, faker?" Shadow growled.

"Not you that's for sure." He said with a stale laugh. "I'm here for Astrid." He simply said.

Astrid shyly walked up to Sonic. "What's up?"

"I wanted to take a walk with you." He answered.

Astrid smiled happily as she felt her heart pound. "S..Sure."

Sonic and Astrid walked down the road, Sonic looked over to a blushing Astrid.

"Listen, Astrid. I saw the news today and heard what happened."

Astrid nodded, her ears lowered in submission. "I'm sorry.." She simply said.

"I'll forgive you when you dump those two nobodies!" Sonic yelled.

The young female felt her heart sink.

"B..But we've been friends for a long time." Astrid softly protested.

Sonic growled lowly. "Those guys aren't good for you. You need to surround yourself with people like… Amy and Cream, they're a better fit for you."

Astrid nodded, she flashed an empty smile. "I...If that's what you want."

The cobalt male smiled as he patted her head. "Good girl."

Astrid blushed as she smiled a bit.

While she smiled, she felt herself hurting inside, while she loved the blue hero, she also loved her friends. She knew why he felt that way, seeing how she openly expressed that she wanted to become his mate, he's been more controlling of her and her actions, he wanted her to more to his liking, and she willingly dropped almost all of her favorite things and changed her actions for his sake. However, being asked to drop her two best friends she knew for years, hurt her deeply.

"Well, I'm sure you can walk yourself home, I gotta go and run a few errands. I'll see you…. Whenever." Sonic said as he ran off.

Astrid watched him as he left with a smile on her face. She thought he was an amazing person..
