ROSEWOOD ACADEMY HIGH

CHAPTER 1.

Being the New girl is never easy...

Rosewood Academy High. Where the children of the Future are pure as a Diamond. Though time is short it is always there to remind us. As Infinite as our life at the Academy is, there are always holes to show us the way to a new Path. A rose of Royalty to show the Loyalties of our friends and family here at the Academy. That's the motto of the school. BAA-AAH! Like I give a fucking care. It's no different than any other school I've been to. The only thing different then other schools is the fact, it's in a different city, on a different continent, and it has school uniforms with a stupid silly motto and crest. Big fucking WHOOPEE DO! Like I give a fucking care. I'll just end up staying here for six months and low and behold… BAM!… We'll be up and moving YET AGAIN!... I'm sick of it! I'm just so sick of it all!

The girl sighs out, throwing the pamphlet on her bed as she turns around and heads over to her window.

Come now, Bella, dear. It can't be all that bad?

The girl named Bella scoffs out and looks at her shoulder at her Butler as she folds her arms annoyed.

Oh, PAH-LEAS… Reggie. You know as well as I do it's true. I mean you've been with us for HOW long now?

Reggie takes a breath in and lets out a heavy sigh looking at Bella. Reggie was a hybrid of a Raven and Crow, who had amethyst accents in his feather, and he handsome one at that.

I've been with your family since you were a little girl, Eris. But since your mother's passing six months ago, I've come back because your father needed someone he could trust who could watch over you as he worked. Someone YOU could trust.

Bella only rolls her eyes at him shaking her head. With a heavy sigh, she lets her arms drop to her side and turns around looking at some of the boxes she had yet to unpack from her latest move. She hated this to no end. This was the fourth time in three years she had to move, and it would be another six months till she had to move again. So she started to leave things in the boxes. But just like last time, and the times before THAT, her father told her this would be their new permanent home, and every six months, just as she starts making a life for herself, he drops the bomb of them moving because of his job. Her last home was in Westopolis City on the continent of The New U.Z.A. Or also known as, United Zone Alliance, or more commonly called New Corneria. There she had just started a new life, and like always her father told her one night when she came home from her boyfriend, Knuckles The Echidna, dropping her off, that they were moving. She shouldn't have been surprised that night but she was. The moment that he told her she had ran back outside calling to Knuckles who could see she was in distress.

Bella walks over to a picture frame next to her bed and picks it up sighing out as she places a hand on it. Tears start to form and she shuts her eyes angrily. She remembers how he held her when she told him what was going on. For years, and ever since her mother's passing six months ago, they had moved from place to place, and all because of her father's job. He was a big-time company shareholder and CEO of some top companies. He use to own his own company for a long time, that use to supply Chaos Drives, which he called Chaos Drive INC, which he had started during his second year of high school and through college. But he sold it off just shortly after graduating at top of his class a long time ago and started his life that way, and soon started working with a few other companies, before he met her mother, during a work event.

It was love at first sight, and from there they were inseparable. She was a high-class rich woman, whose own grandfather owned his own company, and a few others, and worked with G.U.N to build weapons for them, and was in line to own it after his passing. He had worked for the said company for about five years and was seeing her mother at the same time. They both were still young, only twenty-two at the time for the both of them, and they had things going for them. But it was during the said event at the company he was at, her grandfather asked him to join his company, stating that he would get paid twice as much as before, then where he was at. He promised him everything he had been working for. At the time her father had declined, saying he had been with this company since his days out of college, and he didn't want to let them down now that he was in line to be promoted. Her mother's grandfather said he understood, but that no matter what he would keep the spot open for him. Her dad had thanked him and said he would keep it in mind. Sadly he didn't get the CEO promotion, and the moment this was found out, he told Layla he wanted to go work for her grandfather.

He worked for her mother's grandfather for six months before he asked her to marry him, of course, she said yes right even before he could even open the ring box in front of the whole restaurant, and show her the ring. So from there, they started living their lives together. Then three years later Layla found out she was pregnant with Eris, and nine months later, their lives were complete. His job then demanded he move around a lot. But with Layla carrying Eris she would stay home till they had her. Once they did they moved around a lot. They would stay in one place for about six months, then move on, they kept this up till Eris had to start school. Her mother didn't want to have her homed schooled, so they soon found a place and stuck around for nearly a year before they had to move once again. The first time Eris had to move, she didn't like it at all and hated the fact she had to leave all her friends behind. It was like this for years, till at last, her mom started having her homed schooled because of their moving around.

When he started working for Grand Emerald Industries, which her boyfriend Knuckles family own, after Wynmacher, the owner of it, just promoted him as head CEO after finding out that the old CEO was embezzling money for his own gain, and had heard great things from Bella's mother's grandfather. It was because of all of this that they were one of the richest people around now. So she had it all and was raised like a Princess her whole life. Thing was, every time she had what she truly wanted it was ripped away from her.

She hated her father. But because of her mother's passing just a few short months ago, he had all but absorbed himself in his work, more than what he used to. Sure when she was a baby, they moved around a lot. Though at the time she had her mom around to watch over her, and be there for her all the time. But now that her mom was gone she had no one. Her only true friend was Reggie, her butler, and Knuckles. Which she had to leave behind. Sure they called every night, but it was hard with the new time zones. She had only been here for a few weeks, and she started her new school tomorrow. She sighs out and reaches over to grab her laptop and pull it close to her. She opens it and turns it on as she looks up at Reggie. He smiles and bows to her.

I'll take my leave, my dear. You enjoy your call with Knuckles and tell him I said hi.

Sure.

With that, he leaves, closing her door behind him. After a moment she opens Wyvern and calls Knuckles. After a few rings, he answers her.

Hey, babe, I was wondering when you were going to call.

She gives him a sad smile and sighs out.

Uh-oh. I know that sigh all too well.

Heh, you always could read me. Ever since the day we met you could.

So what is it this time?

You know how I thought I was gonna be homed schooled once again?

Yeah?

Well, guess what?

You're going to public school?

Not just ANY public school mind you. The most ESTEEM school this side of Soleanna. Rosewood Academy High. Daddy thinks this school will do me good, compared to my last three, where I...ah… well you know?

Yeah, I do. What are you going to do?

Not sure yet. But I get the feeling there is nothing I can do this time. I don't want to make any new friends. I don't want to have to go through all the drama of doing so or having to put up with being the new girl for people to harass and pick on. I mean, he PROMISED I could be homed schooled for the first year, and he LIES to me, saying he's going to enroll me in RWAH.

Come on, it won't be THAT bad, will it?

Thing is, it will be. Remember I had someone very special to me hold me back from killing I don't know HOW many people. But now that he isn't here with me, there is no way I'll be able to hold back now.

Bella…

I mean it, Knuckles. You are my rock. Someone to keep me grounded. You were with me for two years, and even when mama passed away you were there with me, even after everyone attacked me, and started saying things about her. And now I have to deal with this shit all over again. I refuse to do it. Not without you next to me. I need you, Knukies.

I know you do, and I'm sorry too. You know I hate this just as much as you do. When I found out you were leaving, after everything you've been through. I tried asking my mom and Wynmacher what to do, but they said there was nothing they could do right now, despite the fact Wyn OWNS the company. But your father is so successful in his job, he needed someone he could trust to take over the new branch in Soleanna Crisis City. I asked if you couldn't live with us for a time, but your dad said he needed you with him.

Oh please, that's just stupid. He only needs me as his fucking POSTER child so people won't think he's lying about me with "FAKE" pictures on his desk. He no longer cares about me, he only cares about making sure he has money on hand. I mean the only one who gives a damn is Reggie. Oh, speaking of which, he says hi by the way.

Cool, tell him I said hi back.

I will. In fact, he should be back up soon to…

Just then there comes a knock on her door and she sighs out, calling out.

Yes?

It's me again. Sorry to bother you during your call with Knuckles.

Come in, Reggie.

Reggie walks into her room, and he holds a dress bag up for her to see. Sighing out, she gets up off her bed and picks up her laptop, and walks over to her desk to connect to her holo screen so Knuckles could see as well.

Let me guess, my uniform?

Yes, and you have four more like it.

Oh JOY…

Eris sighs out rolling her eyes. She folds her arms and nods at him to open it. He unzips the bag and takes it out. It consisted of a white blouse, with a royal purple blazer with gold trim, a short pleated purple and gold plaid skirt that had a hint of green in it, along with a matching necktie, that had the school's emblem pinned to the knot, and white knee-high socks. On the front pocket was the school's crest. It consisted of two diamonds within one another, an hourglass, much like one would find on a black widow spider, an infinity symbol with openings here and there, and lastly, a purple rose on top of it all. It was embroidered in the school's colors of, royal purple, gold, and green. As she stands there looking at it, Knuckles lets out a low whistle.

Now that's a pretty cute uniform. Can't wait to see you in it.

At least they have taste. Maybe this won't SO bad?..

The next morning…

The school was built in 3115, by our founders, The Rosewood Rabbits. They wanted to give back to the community they loved so much, and for what the community did for them during their time of need. The school consists of over twenty academic classes. Everything from all kinds of sports, art, literature, music, and more. We have a few clubs as well you can pick from to join. The school has three stories, to each building, and everywhere you look our school's emblem is shown. It is the very same crest that belongs to the Rosewood rabbits…

Eris sighs out softly, this so-called "TOUR" was taking too long, and her feet were already starting to hurt from wearing the shoes for the last hour and a half. The girl in front of her, a pink hedgehog who had her quills up in a high curly ponytail tied with ribbon that matched the school's colors kept yammering on and on and ON… about the school's history. Next to her was a tan and light brown rabbit and her Chao. If she remembered right, the rabbit was the Headmistress' daughter. Though in truth she didn't care at all who she was.

Now if you follow us down here, we can show you where some of the art classes are. We have a class for different kinds of art. Ranging from, clay, painting, traditional, wood crafting, and more. We keep each kind separate, can you guess why?

The pink hedgehog looks behind her at Eris smiling brightly. Eris only sighs out and rolls her eyes, which doesn't go unnoticed by the girl, and just to amuse her she answers.

It so that no one else's work gets ruined, and so that if say one is good at painting, and another is good at woodworking then they won't have to worry about getting in one way. Not to say since each class uses different techniques and tools, it helps to keep everything apart and in their rooms so nothing gets ruined. But there have been times that each class has come together to make something.

Eris sighs out in a bored way.

Yes...that's right. Hey, are we like… I don't know? BORING you or something?

The hedgehog looks at Eris and folds her arms looking at her.

Amy! That isn't a very nice thing to ask.

Oh no...not at all. Not one little BIT. In fact, I'm enjoying it SO much, I can't wait to see what else you have in store for me. So how about we keep this moving along?

Now miss Monroe, that wasn't very nice either. Say you are sorry at once.

Why should I?

Eris looks at the rabbit with a fold of her arms and a raised eyebrow.

Because it was very rude of you.

Well, she was "RUDE" first. I think she should say sorry first and foremost.

EXCUSE ME?! All I did was ask if we were boring you to death. That's it.

And like the rabbit said, PINKIE, that wasn't a very nice thing to say.

Hey, she has a name you know?!

Yeah, and I don't give a flying fuck.

The rabbit gaps out covering her as her Chao flies over and starts to scold her for cursing.

Cheese is right, Miss Monroe. That was very mean to say. You shouldn't use that kind of language at all. It isn't very ladylike.

It isn't very ladylike...Nana boo boo…

Eris mocks her scoffing out as she leans over to the rabbit and places a finger on her, and a folded hand on her hip annoyed.

I don't care kid. I'll speak how I want to when I want to, and you and no one else can tell me otherwise. So just shut up.

HEY, GET YOUR FINGER OFF CREAM RIGHT NOW!

Or what?

Eris glances over at Amy daring her to try something.

As one of the school's Prefects, I order you to remove your hand from the Headmistress's daughter AT ONCE!

Eris just scoffs out and rolls her eyes shaking her head. She straitens back up, tossing her hair back over her shoulder.

Whatever.

Thank you.

Amy tells her as she folds her arms and goes on.

Now, Eris…

Eris growls out as she gets in Amy's face and snaps at her as she places a finger on her.

YOU don't have the RIGHT to call me by that NAME! ONLY PEOPLE I TRUST AND KNOW CAN CALL ME THAT! AND LAST I LOOKED, I DON'T KNOW YOU, NOR DO I TRUST YOU, YOU PINK FREAK OF NATURE!

Amy stands there as she looks at Eris dead in the eyes. A vein pops out as she becomes annoyed. She grabs ahold of Eris wrist as Cream looks on between the two of them. Cheese, hides behind her, peeking out sensing a fight about to happen. Amy forces Eris hand down but keeps her cool.

As I was...about to say...I don't know...how your LAST...school went. But around here...WE SHOW RESPECT TO OUR HIGH UPS!

HA! Higher-ups? HIGHER-UPS!? HA HA HA HA HA…. You're joking, right?

Come again?

Man, how in the HELL did this school pick someone so STUPID! HA HA HA HAHA. I mean COME ON, pinkie. We're in the same fucking GRADE! THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD CONSIDER SOME STUPID PINK AIR-HEADED MORON AS MY UPPER-CLASS MAN IN A MILLION YEARS! SO DON'T GO COMPARING YOURSELF TO ME, GOT IT, BITCH!

MISS MONROE!?

Cream gasps out as she covers her mouth once more as she looks on in shock.

SHUT YOU LITTLE BRAT!

Eris looks over at Cream yelling at her. Tears prick the corner of her eyes as she looks at her and slowly backs up. She turns around and runs off crying.

LOOK AT WHAT YOU'VE DONE, ERIS! CREAM! CREAM WAIT!

I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL ME THAT YOU TRAM! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO!

I AM YOUR UPPERCLASSMEN, AND I WILL CALL YOU BY YOUR NAME GIVEN TO ME!

NO, YOU WILL NOT! I TOLD YOU ONLY PEOPLE I KNOW AND TRUST CAN CALL ME THAT, AND YOUR NEITHER OF THEM! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A CHAOS FUCKING BITCH WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHEN TO SHUT UP AND GET TO THE POINT!

I HAVE BEEN UP ON MY FEET IN BRAND NEW SHOES FOR THE LAST FUCKING HOUR AND A HALF! MY FUCKING FEET ARE KILLING ME! HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT FOR ONE SECOND THAT NO ONE GIVES A FUCKING DAMN ABOUT THE SCHOOLS HISTORY?

THE SCHOOLS MOTTO? WHEN THE SCHOOL WAS BUILT, OR WHO BUILT IT? NO! NO ONE GIVES A FUCKING DAMN ABOUT IT AT ALL! WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS FUCKING BUILDING OVER FORTY-FIVE MINUTES AGO! BUT INSTEAD, YOU HAD TO STOP NOW AND AGAIN, POINT OUT SOMETHING SO STUPID AND INSIGNIFICANCE, LIKE SOME PAINTING OF SOME FLICKIES SOME SOME RETARDED LOSER PAINTED!

B-But...I was...the one...

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHAT YOU DID, YOU STUPID BITCH! I DON'T GIVE A FUCKING CARE ABOUT YOU, THAT STUPID RABBIT AND HER CHAO, NO ONE!

HEY, WHAT IS GOING ON DOWN HERE?!

Amy looks over Eris, as Eris looks behind her. Standing in the light of the window were several male figures. They walk down the hallway as their shoes clack against the marble flooring. They stop just a couple of feet in front of the girls as they either put their hands in their pockets or on their hips. Two of them were hedgehogs and the other was a twin-tailed fox. One of the hedgehogs was a silver-gray hedgehog with golden eyes, and snow-white fur peeking out and around his neck. The other was a Cerulean blue with emerald green eyes. Their friend was the golden-colored twin-tailed fox, with amazing blue eyes.

I asked what is going on down here? Amy, what's going on? We saw cream running down the hallway crying.

The cerulean hedgehog asked once more.

Oh, this should be good.

Eris states with a roll of her eyes, as she scoffs out with a fold of her arms. Amy only stands there, still in shock from Eris's words just now. The blue hedgehog looks over at Eris for a moment, narrowing his eyes at her. She only harrumphs and looks away.

Amy?

The silver-gray hedgehog asks her once more. Amy finally snaps out of it and turns around running off crying down the hallway.

A-A-Amy, WAIT?! WHAT'S WRONG!?

The blue hedgehog watches as Amy runs off and out of sight. The other two look at one another worried, as the blue hedgehog looks back at Eris growling out.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!?

Eris only scoffs out with a roll of her eyes yet again, brushing him away with a wave of her hand in front of her face.

DON'T YOU DARE BUSH THIS OFF!

He grabs a hold of her upper arm and forces her to look at him. The other two walk over to help out, but the moment their eyes meet, his widen in shock as he slowly lets her arm go. His arm slides down hers and back to his side. His friends look at him as his facile expression changes. For a moment things were quiet till he scoffs out and looks away, as he walks past her.

Come on you two, let's go find Amy and make sure she is alright.

B-But, Sonic?

Just let her be, Tails. She's not worth it. She is nothing but a loser.

Eris only scoffs out as she walks the other way.

Takes a looser, to know one, pig.

H-hey! That wasn't nice.

Oh, you wanna be next, you twin-tailed FREAK!?

Eris looks at the fox daring him to say more. He was about to when the silver-gray hedgehog stepped in front of him.

I think maybe we should just walk away now before anything more happens, yeah?

Eris scoffs and walks around him, stopping for only a moment next to Tails.

Listen to your, BOYFRIEND fox, and stay the fuck away from me.

With that Eris walks off with ears folded back. As she turns a corner and walks down to the right, she passes Cream and Cheese with a purple cat, who was consoling her. She stops only for a split second as Cream looks up at her. Cheeses growl out ready to take Eris on. Eris and Cream's eyes meet for only a moment till she looks down sadden as she holds herself. Eris shakes her head and gets ready to walk off when Cream speaks softly to her.

The nurse's office is in building B-3.

What did you say to me, you little brat?

Eris growls out, holding up a fist to her. Cream eeps out and hides her face in the purple cat's arms. The purple cat growls out and stands up and in front of Cream. Cheeses weren't far behind.

Y-You're feet. I can see the heels bleeding. T-the nurses office is in building B-3.

Tisk… Whatever, brat.

Hey, say you're sorry right now! She was only trying to be nice to you.

Listen, kitty cat…

KITTY CAT!?

The purple cat looks at her in surprise as Eris goes on.

Why don't you mind your own business?

Eris walks off and down the hall once again. The bell tolls as she makes her way out to the school grounds. From there she walks off to find someplace quiet to sit down and assess the damage done to her feet. As she turns another corner and gets halfway down, her feet finally give out on her and she starts to fall over. But just as she falls someone catches her in time before she hits the ground

Whoa, easy there, now. Here, let me help you back onto your feet.

T-thank you.

Eris hisses out as she looks at who it was the helped her. She couldn't quite tell who it was since the sun got in her eyes, but he tilts his head some and smiles at her, and she could now tell it was a purple Chameleon with a yellow horn on his face, with matching eyes. He had on a purple and gold ninja yoroi that had the school's crest on the left cover where his heart would be. As he helps her out, she gaps out and falls once again, but this time, he was ready for her and picks her up bridal style.

H-hey...P-put me down!

She tells him, blushing bright red as she tries to push herself away from him.

Take it easy, I'm just trying to help you. You're hurt and you can't keep walking unless you want to hurt your feet more.

Y-yes...I-I know… B-B-But…

Hey, it's alright. The Dojo is close by. There is a First-Aid kit there, and I'll help bandage your feet up for you.

He smiles at her, and she looks away blushing even more as her ears fall back. She sighs out and leans into his shoulder, and he chuckles out and walks off and to the Dojo. It doesn't take long to get there and as he enters it she could see that it was empty of people. He takes her to the back where they kept some rooms and helped her into one and onto his bed.

Wait here, I'll be back in a moment.

A-alright.

He leaves and she sighs out as she leans back into the bed with a heavy sigh, and rests her arm on her eyes for a moment, closing them. It felt great to finally sit down, and rest her aching feet. She opens her eyes and looks around and sees some things on the walls around the room. Some were tournament posters, others were weapons on display, there were a few Kabuki masks on the walls as well, and there were evens some wall scrolls of Cherry Blossom trees with either Chao or peacocks. There was a dressing cabinet in one corner of the room, and a desk close by it with a laptop on it and some books. All in all the room looked like some kind of Japanese room. It had all the aspects of one. It was nice and big and roomy, not in the least cramped at all.

She sighs out and lays back down on his bed and stretches out. She scoots up, and leaving her feet over the side, and rolls over slightly, grabs a pillow, and holds onto it. She felt downright tired. She had a hard time getting a good sleep last night, as nightmares of her mother's passing plagued her yet again. As she waits for the chameleon to come back, she takes hold of a locket around her neck, and takes it off, and opens it up, and sighs out as she looks at a picture of her mother. As she looks at it, she starts to doze off, slowly as the chimes in his open sliding door, sound off softly due to a gentle breeze blowing. She tries to fight it but she soon falls asleep, her hand falls to the side, her locket falling out of her hand and onto the floor. At around eight at night, Eris starts to dream. She tosses and turns her head back and forth, kicking her feet slightly as the nightmare once more takes hold of her.

N-no...no...look out...mom...no...mom...watch out...no...no. No… mom...please...wake up…wake up please...come on...we have to get...no...no no...please...no...don't take me from her...no...mom...mommy….no...NO NO NOOOOO!

Someone shakes Eris hard, trying to wake her up. She bolts upright and screams out. She pants hard, as her hair sticks to her face from a cold damp sweat. She grabs ahold of the blankets that were around her and pulls them close to her shaking.

H-hey, take it easy, you're fine. You're safe now. Come now, take a deep breath. That's it. Nice and easy now.

Eris does as she was told, and she starts to calm down some. But when she looks up to see who had awoken her it wasn't who she needed the most right now. Her bottom lip starts to quiver and she holds the blankest close to her and starts to cry. Sighing out, he pulls her close and into his arms as she cries. He gently strokes her head as she does, trying to calm her. After some time she finally stops crying, and he pulls her from him and gently lifts her chin. He smiles softly at her, and she only glances away and pulls her knees to herself. He sighs out and reaches for a glass and hands it to her.

Hey, drink some of this. It'll help.

Sighing out, she looks over to see a glass of water behind handed to her. She sighs out and takes it, drinking some of the content in it, and hands it back.

Better?

Yeah...thanks I guess?

Here, I also found this on the floor.

Wha…?

She looks over and sees him holding her locket. She takes hold of it and opens it up sighing out.

You look just like her.

Eris only scoffs out a bit and smiles.

Yeah, daddy use to say that all the time. But now…

She sighs out and puts it back on.

How long ago was it?

Six months today.

She whispers.

But how did you know?

I've always been good at reading people. Not to say you were talking in your sleep. Also, those shoes did quite the number on your feet.

Wha?

Eris remembered why she was here, and she throws the blankets off her and looks at her feet. They were bandaged from her toes up to her ankles. She gaps out as she gently moves her toes.

What HAPPENED?!

The back of your ankles was rubbed raw, and you had blisters along the sides of your feet that were bleeding bad, and on your pinkie toes as well.

All that from only an hour and a half of walking?!

The only time I have seen anything like it is when they're brand new shoes, or a size too small. And I get the feeling that it's both.

How so? I mean, yeah, there are new shoes, but not my SIZE?!

Depends? What size are you normally?

A seven.

These are size four and a half.

WHAT!? HOW!?

He hands her shoes and she sees he was right.

How in the hell did this happen?

My assumption is they gave you a teen size four and a half, instead of a teen size seven.

But even still, they felt like they fit perfectly. I mean yeah, they were a little tight, but I put that off as being brand new shoes. I never thought to look at the size this morning when putting them on. I was still half asleep if I'm being honest.

I've already told Ms. Rosewood, and…

Eris groans out and hides her face in her lap and sighs out.

Of all the people, you had to tell HER?

Well, it's not like I went to her and told her, she came to find you. Someone told her they saw me carry you off and she came to find me, when I saw her she asked me if I saw you and I told her what was going on. She asked to come to see you, and the damage done to your feet and by the time we got here, you were sound asleep on my bed. I was going to wake you up, but she said to let you bee and she would help with bandaging your feet, and she help me put you under the covers, stating she would see to it that some better shoes were found for you.

D-did she say WHY she was looking for me?

Not really no. Just that you, Amy, and Cream had some kind of disagreement and wanted to talk about it.

Tisk… Disagreement my ass. Fucking pink tramp wouldn't shut up long enough for me to get a word in to let her know my fucking feet were hurting. I mean this is HER FAULT TO START WITH! MY FEET ARE FUCKED UP NOW BECAUSE OF HER AND HER FUCKING MOUTH AND GOING ON ABOUT THE FUCKING SCHOOLS HISTORY, AND SHOWING ME SHIT I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT!

Hey now, take it easy. Just breathe and relax.

Relax? RELAX!? ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY YOU DAMN NINJA WANNABE!? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA THE HELL I HAVE GONE THROUGH IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS?! THE LIFE I HAD TO UPROOT FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME?!

I LOSE EVERYTHING I HELD CLOSE TO ME, AND THE ONE PERSON I WANT THE MOST RIGHT NOW NEXT TO ME INSTEAD OF SOME FUCKING WALKING SUITCASE, LIVES OVER FIVE THOUSAND MILES ACROSS THE DAMN FUCKING SEA! SO DON'T GO TELLING ME TO RELAX YOU FUCKING WALKING LUGGAGE RACK!

The chameleon sighs out as she yells at him. He shakes his head and was about to say something when there comes a knock on his door, and it opens up a tiny bit and a golden-yellow can pokes her head in.

Nya, Espio, is everything alright, friend?

Yes, Honey, everything is fine. Is there anything I can help you with?

No, I heard yelling as I was walking back to my room so I came to see if everything was alright.

Everything is fine. But I am glad your here, I was wondering if you could help me with something.

Sure? What's up?

Would you come in here and see if you have any shoes that won't go against the dress code and will fit comfortably over her feet with the bandages on.

The girl named, Honey walks into his room, she was in a long baby pink tight fighting nightshirt that went down to her knees that said, GIRL POWER!, with matching pink slippers that had stars and moons on them. As she comes closer she sits down on the bed and gently takes hold of her feet and looks them over.

Nya, girl what HAPPENED to your poor feet?!

Eris scoffs out looking away with folded ears. Honey glances up and smiles at her and nods.

The idiots sent her the wrong sized shoes, Amy and Cream were giving her the tour of the school today, and for over an hour and a half, she was in shoes that didn't fit her right. She told me that they felt fine this morning till I and Ms. Rosewood took a look at them and saw what happened.

Nya, that bad huh?

Yeah. I put some of my special ointment on them to help with the pain, but she is going to need new shoes that won't make her feet worse than they are for at least a week till they fully heal.

Right, I got something, hold on be back in five.

Honey gets up and walks out of the room closing the door behind her, leaving Espio and Eris alone. They were quiet for a time, till it got a bit awkward. Sighing out, Eris was about to say something when a phone goes off. She looks up recognizing the ring tone and sighs out.

That must be your butler, Reggie.

I take he called earlier?

Yeah. Here, you should answer it, he sounded worried when you didn't come home.

Thanks.

She takes her phone from him and sighs out answering it.

Hello…?

An hour later…

Now I know it's around here someplace.

The one looking around sighs out, scratching his head trying to remember where it was that the school's Dojo was at. He sees a couple of kids walking past and calls out to them

Hello?! Excuse me?!

The kids look over and see him coming their way and they stop. They were the three boys from earlier that day. The ones named Sonic, Tails, and Silver.

Hello, boy's I'm sorry to bother you on your way back to your dorms. But I seem to be lost.

Sonic places a folded hand on his hip and gestures with the other one, as Silver and Tails stand by.

I'll say, man. You do know that the grounds are off-limits to outsiders right? Especially at this time of night? We're about to close the ground for the night till tomorrow.

Yes, yes I know, but I'm looking for someone. First off, I'm Reggie, and the girl I am looking for is a Lyox you see. She has…

Soft purple hair with teal highlights, chocolate brown fur, with the most amazing heterochromia selector eyes, anyone has seen?

Y-yes, that's her! Are you a new friend of hers, by chance?

As if. There is no way we would be friends with someone who hurt our friends. She's nothing but a bitch.

I beg your pardon?!

Easy, Tails. Sorry about my friend, it's just the one you're looking for got into it with some of our friends today due to some misunderstanding, and…

Sonic, that isn't what happened. We should tell him the truth of how she blew up at Amy and Cream for no reason.

Wha…?!

Oh for the love of Chaos, Silver. Why can't you two ever keep your mother shut? Because the way I see it she had every right to blow up at Amy, Cream maybe not, but you know how Amy can be at times?

Come on Sonic, it's the truth, and if he is her father or brother, then he should know.

Tails is right, Sonic.

Actually, I'm her butler. But what was this about her hurting two of your friends?

Amy, Sonic's girlfriend was giving the tour of the school with Cream, the Headmistress daughter today. From what they told us, they got into an argument, and that girl blew up at them, calling them names and telling Amy off.

Oh, my. She wasn't kidding when she said…

Reggie shakes his head forgetting it. The three look at him wondering what he was going to say.

What do you mean she wasn't kidding when she said what?

I-its nothing. I promise you. But would you happen to know where the school's Dojo is? She told me she was there with someone named, Espio.

Espio?! Yeah, we know him. Come on, I'll take you to his room. You two head on back to the dorms I'll take him to see Espio.

Alright, Sonic.

See you in a bit, Sonic.

Right. Come on. The dorms are this way.

Sonic starts walking off, and Reggie tells Silver and Tails thank you and follows him. They were quiet for a bit till Sonic finally asks what was going on with Eris.

So what's her deal anyway? It was like she had a sharp stick up her tail hole.

Hey now!? That is no way to speak about a lady!

Reggie gets annoyed as Sonic looks up at him.

Sorry, bro. But after what happened today, she is no lady. The whole school is now talking about her and what she did. That's gonna make it hard on her come tomorrow. If she was trying to avoid being noticed by the school, she sure did one HELL of a job doing it. But, jokes aside. What's her story? When I confronted her today about Amy, I could see it in her eyes. It was like...I don't know? It's hard to put into words. It was like…

Like she was sorry for hurting your girlfriend, but in truth, she didn't care if she did or not. It was like all she wanted to do was just beat the first person close to her and...Amy was it?

Yes?

Amy was the closest one to do that. So instead of using physical force, she used mental force instead to make it known that she wanted nothing to do with Amy or Cream. Oh, Bella, my dear. Why?

Bella?

Yes, that is her name. Belladonna "Eris" Monroe.

Wait? SHE'S THE MONROE GIRL!? As in THEE Belladonna "Eris" Monroe. Heir to the whole of Monroe Inc!? THAT MONROE!?

Sonic looks at Reggie shocked at hearing this.

Yes, the very one. Why do I get the feeling that this is bad?

Sonic lets out a low whistle and sighs out.

Because it could be.

Oooooh, I KNEW I should have pressured Mr. Monroe more into letting her get homeschooled for the first year here. Curse it all.

Reggie folds his arms and rubs his forehead sighing out as he felt a migraine coming on.

Why do I get the feeling that girl has a dark story behind her?

I wouldn't call it dark per-say, more like tragic. I really shouldn't be telling you this, since it isn't my place. But Bella has had a hard life the last few years. Can you promise me to keep what I am about to tell you between us?

Sonic looks at Reggie, and he could see something troubling was afoot. He lets his arms rest at his side and nods.

Sure. You can trust me to keep it between us.

I sure hope so, 'cause right now it's what she needs. What I need as well. I worry about her, Mr. Hedgehog.

Please, call me Sonic.

Alright, Sonic. Well, you see it all started back when she had to move for the very first time, she was only six…

At the Dojo Dorms…

There comes a knocking on Espio's door, and Honey goes over to answer it.

Nya, yes?

Hello there my, dear, I'm looking for…

REGGIE!

Eris calls out and gets up wincing for a moment, as she goes over to him and hugs him. He sighs out and hugs her back.

I-I wanna go home now, Reggie.

Eris whispers as tears fall, happy she was now in the arms of someone she loved.

I know you do my, sweet.

Reggie tells her gently as he strokes her hair. He looks up at Espio and Honey and smiles sadly.

I thank you for watching over her.

There is no need to thank us. I'm just glad I found her before her feet got worse.

How bad are they if I may ask?

Pretty bad. They gave her the wrong size from the look of it. They don't really put the shoe size to where one can see it clearly so it's hard to tell. Her feet are bandages up, and thanks to Honey, she now has a pair of shoes that are comfortable and don't go against the dress code.

I thank you for your help, Miss Honey.

Nya! Don't worry about it. I'm happy to help out. Besides this is a win-win for both of us. She gets shoes the fit right and are comfy, and I get someone to show of my latest design. She can keep them as well.

Well, I thank you, as does she. We best get going now. I have a feeling, Bella has had more than enough for one day.

Before you go, please take this with you.

Espio comes over and hands him a bottle of cream and smiles.

It's for her feet. It will help with the pain and heal the sores up. Just make sure to wrap them up every day, at least three times a day. I can help when she is at school during the afternoon. But morning and night will be another thing.

But of course, I understand. How much do I owe you?

As Honey said, think nothing of it. I make my own ointment, using special herbs and oils. It's a bit of a hobby of mine.

Oh you mean like giving massages, and personal training and, teaching someone how to meditate, to calm one's mind, a "HOBBY" Espio?

Honey asks him sarcastically, with a folded hand on her hip and tilt of her head and half-grin. He blushes and coughs into his hand with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Yes, well...AHEM…

Honey giggles out as she playful punches him in the arms.

As I was saying. If you need more just let me know, but that should be more than enough for the week.

Of course, thank you both for your help, and goodbye, and good night.

Goodnight, and goodnight Bella.

Eris only looks away and walks out the door. Reggie sighs out, and thanks him once again, and follows her.

So you two ready to go? I just got word that we have five minutes till security closes the gates for the night. I called ahead and told them to give us at least an extra five minutes since I have a feeling her feet are gonna be killing her.

Eris looks to her left and she sees the blue hedgehog from before.

YOU?!

Yep, the one and only. So how are you feeling there, Miss Monroe?

Eris only glares at him and scoffs looking away. Sonic only sighs out and nods.

Come on, let's go.

What the hell are YOU doing here?

Easy, now Bella. He is with me. He helped me find the Dojo. I got lost on the way in.

Not to say it's my job as a school upper-class men and Prefect to make sure everyone gets in or out on time.

Sonic takes something out of his pocket and presses a button on the side.

Yeah, Tank, we're coming your way now. Hold the gate for a bit longer, will you?

Sure thing, Sonic.

Sonic puts the device back in his pocket and smiles and walks off. Eris and Reggie follow him. After a couple of minutes, Eris starts to slow down. Reggie catches this and looks over at her.

Eris, are you alright, my dear?

No. it's my feet again.

Oh, dear. Here, I see a bench, come sit a moment and let me see.

Sighing out, Eris goes to sit down as Sonic sees them walking off and follows them.

Hey, come on now, we don't have all night.

Sorry, Sonic. But it looks like her feet are giving her problems again.

Oh, no.

I-I don't know if I'll be able to walk much, they hurt so much, Reggie.

Reggie looks up at her and nods, as he takes the shoes off, and right away he could see the problem. Her sores had started to bleed once again and right through the bandages.

Ouch, that does not look good.

Tisk...No DUH moron. It's because of your heartless FRIEND, my feet are like this.

Eris looks up growling at Sonic. He only sighs out, trying to keep his temper. He knew in a way, Amy was partly to blame, but if anything it was the ones who got the shoes mixed to start with. Sighing out, he kneels down with his back to her.

Come on, get on, I'll carry you the rest of the way.

Excuse me?

You heard me. Get on and I'll carry you the rest of the way and to your car.

Forget it, Reggie won't you carry me? I don't trust this blue freak enough not to drop me.

Bella, we don't have time for this. Just let him carry you, please. Besides I'm going to need my hands free once we get to the car.

Eris scoffs out and rolls her eyes at him.

Fine. But you drop me, hedgehog, once my feet are better I'll fucking kill you. KAPSCH?!

Kapsch.

Sighing out, she gets on Sonic's back and he lifts her and claps his arms under her butt and he adjusts her. He looks over his shoulder at her and smiles brightly.

You ready, Princess?

WHAT did you call me?

Princess?

Eris opens and closes her mouth a couple of times till at last, she gets an annoyed look on her face.

Do you WANT to see your grandkids someday, blue boy? Because if so I suggest you keep that comment to yourself.

Heh...Right. Sorry. Come on now.

Reggie sighs out shaking his head as he grabs Eris's shoes and follows them. As they make their way to the front of the school several people come running around the corner and sees them. One of them gaps out, as she takes off running once more and hears right for Sonic, and Eris. Unknowing to them, the girl was Amy. They were just about halfway to the gate when Sonic smiles at her.

Hold on just a bit longer, Miss Monroe, we're almost there.

Yeah.…

Before she could finish thanking him, their both hit from behind. Eris goes flying across the way and rolls head over heels in the grass and ends up hitting a tree hard. Reggie yells out and goes running to her, as Sonic groans out. The others who came with her, yell out as they go running to Sonic's side.

STAY AWAY FROM SONIC, YOU BITCH!

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!? WHY DID YOU ATTACK THEM FOR!

Hey, Sonic? Are you alright?

Ugh...What happened?

Give you one good guess.

Amy looks over and gaps out, as she turns around going over to Sonic, and pushes the others out of the way.

SONIC! SONIC, ARE YOU ALRIGHT? DID SHE HURT YOU? LOOK WHAT YOU DID YOU FUCKING BITCH! YOU HURT SONIC!

Eris groans out and holds her head shaking it. She opens her eyes and could see stars and Flickies.

Wha...what happened. Oooooh…

Eris!? Are you alright my dear?

Y-yes...but that...ooow… that hedgehog...won't be...once I'm done with him.

In his defense my, sweet, it wasn't his fault.

Wha?

Eris looks up and she could see a group of kids from today around Sonic. But what annoyed her the most was the pink hedgehog. Reggie helps her to her feet, as she winces out, but ignores the pain.

H-her?

Yes her.

Amy looks up and grows angry, and storms over to Eris. Eris narrows her eyes and takes a couple of painful steps and stands her ground. Reggie was about to step in, but she holds up a hand stopping him.

I'M WARNING YOU RIGHT NOW, YOU TRAMP! WHAT DID YOU DO TO SONIC!

I didn't do anything, pinkie.

YES, YOU DID! I SAW YOU ON HIS BACK, ATTACKING HIM!

He was carrying me to my car because it hurts to walk right now.

YOUR LYING, BITCH!

I am not lying, you may ask Reggie, my butler, this.

This is…

SHUT UP YOU FUCKING MAN-WHORE!

Reggie flinches back in surprise and blinks a couple of times, stunned at the language just used.

M-M-Man...WHORE!?

Eris growls out grabbing a hold of Amy by her collar with one hand and forcing her to look at her. A dark shroud covers her face as she growls out at her.

Call. Him that. Again. And you will. Have ME. To deal with….slut. You make call me whatever you like. You may hit me, spread lies, and more But do NOT… I REPEAT! DO NOT ATTACK, MY FAMILY! BECAUSE IF YOU DO, YOU WILL BE SORRY!

GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME!

Amy pushes Eris back and she stumbles into Reggie who catches her. He looks down at her and could see she was in kill mode now and tries to hold her back, but it does little good. She pushes off from Reggie and jumps at Amy who was ready for her. They punch, and kick, pulling one another hair, calling one another names, even biting one another as well. Even though Eris' feet were killing her, she kept on fighting Amy.

I'M WARNING YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM ME AND MY FRIENDS, BITCH! ESPECIALLY MY BELOVED SONIKKU!

I KEEP TELLING YOU, YOU STUPID PINK, RAT, HE WAS ONLY HELPING ME TO MY CAR!

FUCKING SKANK ASS SLUT!

WORTHLESS RETARDED WHORE!

YOUR NOTHING BUT USELESS SHIT, ERIS!

I TOLD YOU YOU WERE NOT ALLOWED TO CALL ME THAT, YOU HEARTLESS PIG! ONLY PEOPLE I CARE ABOUT AND TRUST CAN CALL ME THAT, AND YOU'RE NEITHER!

BELLA, PLEASE STOP FIGHTING!

AMY THAT IS ENOUGH OUT OF YOU, RIGHT NOW!

Both girls ignored the others as they kept fighting. The fight ends up taking them around the front of the whole school where Amy lands a punch that sends her flying right into the fountain. Eris goes under and was coming up for air when Amy jumps on her back and tries to hold her down in the water. Eris struggles to get her breath, till she grabs a hold of Amy's foot and pulls her off her and into the water. All around, more and more kids come out from their dorms to see the fight. Some cheering Eris on, others Amy, some both. Sonic and the others come running over to see the two fighting in the water of the fountain and watch on in horror.

SILVER USE YOUR POWERS TO STOP THEM NOW! PULL THEM APART!

Silver runs to the edge of the fountain and was about to use his telekinesis to pull the girls apart when Eris was thrown into him and they both go flying across the ground. They go rolling over and over one another, till Eris lands on top of Silver. They both groan out.

H-hey… a-are you alright?

Before Eris could answer him, she grabs a hold of him and rolls with him just as Amy's foot comes their way. Amy growls out as Eris slowly stands up looking at Amy, ready for her next move.

I-I told you…that...he was helping me...to my car….now…

Before she could finish Amy jumps into the air and readied a kick to hit Eris once again.

I WON'T LET YOU HURT SONIC!

Her kick comes fast, with no time for Eris to block the attack. It hits her dead-on, and she goes flying high in the air and across the grounds. Everyone looks on in horror seeing that she was heading right for the Schools mascot Knights Spiked shield. Amy lands on her feet and looks behind her and gaps out seeing where she was heading. Reggie looks on in shock, as a blue blur goes running by them, but before it could reach Eris, a yellow streak goes flying back and catches Eris time. Sonic stops as he looks up and sees a black and red hedgehog hovering above them holding Eris in his arms. Behind him, several others show up on, or around the Mascot looking out at everyone. The black hedgehog slowly floats down to the ground, as his friends gather behind him.

SHADOW!?

Shadow looks over at Sonic and humphs out as he walks off with Eris. He makes it to the fountain with his posies as they all gather around him. Whispers start among the other kids, as Tails helps Silver over.

Sh-Shadow, thanks.

Shadow only scoffs out as he looks around the area. Amy walks over to Sonic along with Reggie. Sonic looks at Amy narrowing his as he shakes his head and walks away from her.

S-Sonic...I...

I'm only going to say this once. Unless you want this on your permanent record, I suggest you all get back to your rooms RIGHT NOW BEFORE I HAVE MY CREW MAKE YOU GET BACK TO YOUR ROOMS!

At once everyone snaps out of it and rushes back to their dorms. Even Amy tries to run off as well, but a green hedgehog stops her, but grabbing her upper arm and squeezing it hard, making her flinch.

Ah, ah, ah, girly. You're staying put.

LET ME GO SCOURGE!

Sorry, no can do. You're in a LOT of trouble.

Scourge, let her go. I'll deal with her.

Sorry, blue, bosses orders, and you know I only follow his rule.

Shadow, make him let Amy go.

Take her to the Headmistress now, tell her what happened here.

Right, boss. Come on pinkie, it's time to meet your maker.

Wha?! NO! LET ME GO RIGHT NOW, SCOURGE! SHE IS THE ONE AT FAULT HERE, NOT ME! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING…

ENOUGH AMELIA ROSE ROBOTNIK! SONIC WHAT HAPPENED HERE!?

Amy shuts up right away as Sonic sighs out. He places a folded hand on his hip and looks at Shadow. Knowing full well it would do no good to try and brush it off this time.

I was helping Miss, Monroe to her car, when out of nowhere, Amy attacks us.

So she was the one who threw the first punch?

More like a kick, but yes.

BUT SONIC!? SHE WAS…

NO, SHE WASN'T AMY! DON'T YOU GET THAT?! I WAS CARRYING HER BECAUSE OF HER FEET HURTING HER! I WASN'T GOING TO LET HER WALK ON THEM AND HAVE THEM HURT MORE! THE SHIT YOU PULLED TODAY, AMY, IS DOWNRIGHT OUTRAGEOUS! AND AFTER TODAY, I WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!

SONIC...NO!?

YES, AMY! I DON'T NEED A GIRLFRIEND WHO IS A FUCKING NUT JOB! AFTER TONIGHT WE'RE DONE!

All of Sonic's friends look on in shock, as they look at Amy. She begs him not to do this, but he looks away.

Sorry, Amy, but Sonic is right. This is the first time you've ever gone this far. To physically hurt someone just because Sonic was helping her.

T-Tails?!

Not to say, you ended up hurting Silver as well.

No… I mean I didn't…

Just sop why you're ahead of yourself, Amy.

Scourge?

Right away, Boss. Come on pinkie, let's go.

Amy doesn't bother struggling this time, and Scourge leads her away. Shadow looks around and sees Reggie stand off to the side.

You, Craven, who are you? What are you doing here?

I-I'm Miss Monroe's personal Butler. My name is, Reggie Lockwood. I came here to pick her up for the night and take her home. Sonic was showing me where the Dojo was so I could retrieve Eris. On our way out, Amy attacked us out of the blue. She started blaming Eris over nothing, and when I tried to vouch for Eris, she verbally attacked me. That is when Eris took hold of her collar and told her off.

Which started the fight, I take it, Mr. Lockwood?

Y-yes, sadly. Eris is very protective of her friends and family, and right now, not counting her father, I am the only family she has left.

I see. Sonic, is this the new girl?

Yeah, that's her.

Shadow hums out and looks at a green Hawk.

Jet, is the EMT on its way here?

Yeah, it is, boss. They said they should be here any moment.

Good.

Sonic, once I see the girl off, you and I need to have a little talk.

Sonic sighs out as his ears lower and nods.

Yeah, I know, Shadow.

After a few, lights start flashing, as an EMT drives up the sidewalk and stops. Medics get out and pull out a gurney from the back and run over to where Shadow was, and he sets her down on the gurney. He explains to them what he was told, and they nod and rush her to the ER to make sure she was alright. Shadow walks over to Reggie and clears his throat.

Mr. Lockwood?

Yes?

Shadow takes out a card and hands it to Reggie. He looks at it as his brows furrow.

Robotnik Corp?

Yes. It has my personal number on there. Please send the Hospital bill to us. I'll deal with it personally.

I thank you, Mr. Robotnik, sir. But we can handle the bills.

Please, I insist, it is, after all, the least I can do for my sister's behavior. Sonic come on, we need to talk.

Yeah. Tails, Silver I'll see you later.

Yeah. Catch you later, Sonic.

Tails and Silver head back to their dorm, to wait for Sonic, as Reggie heads to the car to follow Eris to the ER. As the stragglers make their way to their dorms, one lone yellow cat, and a purple chameleon stand by watching things as Shadow and Sonic walk by them.

Espio.

Yes, Prefect, Shadow?

I'll need you to come with us as well.

As you wish.

Nya, Espio?

It's fine, Honey. Just head back to the dorm.

Alright. See you later.

Honey walks off and back to the dorm. The rest of Shadow's crew leave as well, letting him deal with Sonic and Espio.

Shadow leads them into the main building, where he takes out his phone and calls someone. As he leads them down the dark hallways, and past the headmistress office. From there they head up a couple of flights of stairs and to the third flooring of the building where he leads them to a set of grand oak doors. He opens them and they could hear three voices talking as they enter.

This is a very serious thing you've done Amy and not very ladylike. When your older brother finds out, he is going to be FURIOUS.

Mama is right, Amy. I've seen you mad before, but not like this. Not to the point you've gone and nearly almost KILLED another student.

B-B-But she was hurting Sonic! Tails and Silver…

Have told me what happened. Young Miss Monroe, feet were badly hurt due to a mix-up with some shoe orders, and with you carrying on with the tour her feet became worse and worse. Now, you've told me what happened today when you gave the tour. I found young Miss Monroe in Espio's room, asleep, and saw the state of her feet personally. Espio informed me later on that Mr. Lockwood called and was worried SICK about her. Then when I saw from my window that you attacked her as Sonic was being the gentlemen he is, carrying her to her car, you attacked them without getting the proper details. I am HIGHLY disappointed Amelia Rose Robotnik. Because of your actions tonight we now have a poor girl being rushed to the ER. Speaking of which, Shadow, thank you for bringing them.

The Headmistress looks up, as he holds a finger up and finishes his call.

Yes, that's right brother… yes...I did inform her butler to send us the bill for our sister misdoings…yes, that's right...no he said he was done with her after this, which I do not blame him...yes, I understand...but of course, he is right here. Hold on.

Sonic.

Yeah?

Mephiles wishes to speak to you a moment.

Sighing out, he takes the phone excusing himself a moment. Ms. Rosewood nods as she picks up her teacup and sips from it.

Right, I am sorry about that Ms. Rosewood.

It is fine, I know your brother needed to be called on this matter. What has he told you?

For starters, she is to be taken off the class Prefect list, stripped of her title, and privileges and be sent back down to the girl's dorms, starting tonight. My group has already started moving her things in with one of the other girls now as we speak.

Ms. Rosewood sets her teacup back down and nods.

And anything more? For this is a HIGHLY offensive matter, Mr. Robotnik.

Yes, I know.

What has your brother said, beyond that?

He is not happy, let me tell you. Especially now that, Sonic has broken things off with her.

I see. Well, then I think for now we should give our condolences to her butler, and father. They are going through a hard time now, and I get the feeling young Miss Monroe is only acting out because of CERTAIN things. Now, on another note. Shadow, as head of the Perfect Members of the school, I want you to see to it that Miss Monroe has everything she will need in the coming days. For now, I will let what happened today slide. For after everything that was told to me, I will not hold her responsible. Once we get word on what is happening at the hospital of her condition, I will see to it that a gift basket is sent to her as an apology. If you could please find out what she likes that would be very helpful.

But of course, Ms. Rosewood.

Also…

OH COME ON YOU DAMN SPIKY MORON! THERE IS NO WAY THAT IS GONNA HAPPEN!

Oh my, that doesn't sound good.

No, it doesn't.

Espio, Cream, Cheese, Ms. Rosewood, Shadow, and Amy all look over at Sonic who was pacing back and forth yelling.

I DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO BE WITH HER TO START WITH!...YEAH...WELL, I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK! IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN!...DO WHATEVER YOU WANT, MEL, BUT I'M WARNING YOU, IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!... WELL IF YOUR SO WORRIED ABOUT IT, THEN YOU GO FUCK HER, CAUSE I'M NOT! AFTER ALL, SHE IS LIKE FIVE TIMES REMOVED FROM THE FAMILY LINE...FIVE, TEN, FIFTY, WHATEVER, MY POINT IS, IT IS NOT HAPPENING...BESIDES, IT'S NOT LIKE IT WOULD MATTER IF YOU WENT TO BED WITH HER...WHAT...DON'T YOU EVEN!… … … You...wouldn't...but…Then so be it, Mephiles. I no longer care. I am not getting back with that fucking pink menace who nearly killed a girl for no reason...I'll figure out a way on my own, to help my mother, I don't need you or your money...yes...but…

Sonic's ears fold back as he sighs out in defeat. He runs a hand over his whole face groaning out as he tosses his head back.

You can't do that, Mephiles. You PROMISED, you would keep uncle, Chuck out of it all...OK, OK...fine… But isn't there another way?...please...I have a reputation to uphold here at the Academy...if I stick with Amy...yes, yes, I know...yeah...thanks bro...but I meant what I said. I don't why you can just bed with her? I mean I know you have a thing for pink…

Sonic goes and sings songs, teasing the other person as he holds the phone away from his ear as the one named Mephiles yells from the other end.

OLGILVIE MAURICE HEDGEHOG! I WILL MURDER YOU IN YOUR SLEEP IF YOU DON'T SHUT UP RIGHT NOW AND DO AS YOUR TOLD TO DO!

AW… but Mephy baby! You know you like her, way more than I ever could. I mean not only is she your favorite color, but she has the same deadly personality you do.

I am warning you, Sonic. Unless you want me to fix this mess, and get you away from, Amelia, I suggest you shut. up. Right now.

OK. OK. I was only teasing sheesh.

Sonic scratches behind his ear chuckling out. Shadow sighs out, facepalming shaking his head as he goes over and takes the phone from Sonic. But he stops him as he goes on.

But on another note. I do understand your dilemma, and I will look into it. Our father will not be happy, but it is understandable. I am...SORRY...for dragging your mother into this. It was ill got for me, and I do apologize for it.

Whoa...the day the big boss says he is sorry. Now that is a new one.

Yes, indeed. Anyway. For now, do as you wish. I'll take full responsibility for my sister's actions, and I will take the punishment of it later...hold on a moment…

Sounds could be heard from the other line, till a new voice speaks through the phone.

Hello? Sonic? Is this on speaker?

Hold, on sir. Give me a moment.

Sonic walks past Shadow and puts the phone down on the table and puts it on speaker, and folds his arms.

Go ahead. You're on speaker now.

Good, very good. Now, I've been listening for a time, and I understand the situation deeply. Amelia?

Y-yes, Grandfather Gerald?

As of now, the connections between you and Sonic, and null and void. I am ending this right here and now…

Sonic quietly pumps a fist back in victory hissing, yes, under his breath.

I agree with young Master Hedgehog, on this matter. If I were in his shoes I would end our engagement as well, and drop you like the rotten apple you are. I will be notifying your family in Mercia of this matter come the morning.

B-B-But… you CAN'T!

I can, and just did. Now Shadow.

Yes, father?

I gotten word from Jet, he has told me they arrived at the hospital. He said he would stay there till we know more of the girl's condition. He has asked me to ask you if you would let Wave know he will not be coming back till either late in the night or morning.

Very well.

Now if that is everything, we have all had a long day, and I think it is high time we all head to bed. I bid you all goodnight. Oh, but before I go. Shadow.

Yes?

Maria wanted me to tell you hello, and hope you will come to see her this weekend as promised. She misses your dearly.

Shadow smiles and chuckles out.

Tell her I will see her this weekend and that the plan is still a go. Let her know I miss her as well. Let her know I will have something special for her when I come home.

I will. Goodnight everyone.

Shadow picks up his phone and closes it as he sighs out.

If I may?

Yes, Espio?

Why was I brought here?

Oh, my, I forgot. Espio, I wanted to thank you personally for taking good care of Miss Monroe, and wanted to ask if you would continue doing so? She is going through a hard time right now, and well...after what happened today, I think she could use a friend.

Oh, please. She made it loud and clear she want anything but that.

Amy huffs out with a fold of her arms. Ms. Rosewood looks over at Amy and tisks her. Sonic only shakes his head sighing out.

Amy, shut up now and get to your room. Scourge!

I'm right here, boss.

Is she set up?

Yeah, have her set up with Fiona.

WHA!? FIONA?! ANYONE BUT HER! COME ON! SHE'LL KILL ME THE MOMENT SHE GETS THE CHANCE TOO!

Then you should have thought about that before trying to kill the new girl, pinkie.

B-B-But…

Good, then would you be so kind as to take her there now.

B-B-But…

It will be my pleasure. Come on pinkie, let's go.

Amy sighs out and starts to follow him.

Amy, your pin?

Huh? Oh…

Sighing out, Amy takes off her pin that letting everyone know she was a class Prefect. She hands it over with a heavy sigh.

I-I-I...am sorry...Vanilla...please...you can't…

I can, Miss Robotnik. And I just did. I'm sorry, but had you been thinking, then maybe things would have been different. Now, off to bed with you.

Yes, Ms. Rosewood. Night, Cream, see you tomorrow?

Cream looks at her, and takes hold of cheese, turning her head away as she gets up and walks over to her mother, and kisses her cheek.

I'm off for bed mother. I'll see you in the morning for breakfast?

But of course, my dear. Goodnight.

Cream smiles at her mother and walks off. She walks past Amy who once again tries to ask if they would see one another tomorrow, but she only glares out the corner of her eye at Amy and harrumphs and, walks up the stairs to her room. Amy sighs out as Scourge leads her away.

I guess I best get going as well and let Tails, and Silver know what is going on.

Very well. Goodnight, Mr. Hedgehog.

I best go check on, Honey I'm sure she is worried.

Yes, I'll be heading out as well. Goodnight, Ms. Rosewood.

Goodnight boys.

With that everyone heads back to their rooms for the night.

At the hospital…

Excuse me? I'm looking for a Mr. Lockwood?

Yes, that is me.

Hello, I am doctor, Smith. I wanted to let you know about your daughter.

Eris isn't my daughter, I am her personal butler.

I see, well I am sorry, my mistake. Is her mother or father around?

Her mother passed away six months ago, and her father is at home working. But I am on as a sort of guardian for her as well. I've been with the family for a long time.

I see. Well, I wanted to let you know, that she is doing fine. She has quite a few lacerations on her, along with some bruising. She has a couple of broken ribs on her right side. But no other broken bones. But her feet I am worried about.

Yes, that is a simple explanation. You see, she ended up with the wrong sizes of shoes. We didn't know this, since they don't put the size on the shoes, and she had worn them for over an hour and a half during the school tour. She told me that the shoes felt fine this morning, and that was that.

I see. Well, I'm said to say, but she won't be able to walk for at least a week, or more now.

What?!

I am not sure what happened, but it looked like the wounds on them ended up becoming raw once more, and have done even more damage to them.

Oh, my.

That's not good at all. When Shadow hears this, he won't be too happy.

Oh, Mr. Hawk, I am so sorry, I forgot you came with Eris. Please forgive my rudeness.

It's fine, Mr. Lockwood. Doctor, tell me, will she be alright?

Yes, she will be just fine. She will be sore for about a couple of weeks, but she should recover.

I see. I've already told the receptionists to send the bill to the Robotnik's. For now, Mr. Lockwood why not head on home? I'll see to it that arrangements are made to take her home when she is ready to be released.

Is it possible to see her first? Please.

But of course. Please come this way.

Thank you. Also, Mr. Hawk.

Yeah?

I think I'll be staying overnight with Eris. I don't wish to leave her side till I know she is alright. She is family to me, and I love her dearly.

Very well. Then I'll see you later.

With that Jet says goodbye and leaves. Reggie was taken to Eris' room where he was left alone with her. He goes to sit next to her and holds her hand as she rests.
