chapter 2: getting to know each other.

after noticing my injury, I then suddenly got light headed and almost collapse on the ground.

tails noticed and yell out for his friends to get me inside and get first aid.

tails and and his red buff friend got my arms on them and help me walk into their hut.

then I blacked out and woke up and I'm laying down on a couch. my back and my arm are covered in bandages. I'm missing my jacket and my shirt. my mask was still on my head. I got up and look around my surroundings.

"not a bad place for a hut." I think to myself.

"good! You're awake." a voice call to me

I turned around saw the pink hedgehog looking at me.

"how long was I out?" I said while groggy and tired.

"for a good while, tails and I help with your injuries and bandage them up." she said while eating her breakfast.

"oh well thank you" I said while craving for something to eat.

"your welcome. so your name is the red hood?" she looked at me while waiting for my response

"actually it's Jason. Jason todd." I told her.

"huh, so are you a human or just some weird person with a helmet for a head?" she asked me while confused of what i was.

"human. this is just a mask." I told her while getting up from the couch."

"oh ok, can I see your face?" she said wondering what I look like.

I hesitate for a minute but gave in. I pressed a button on my helmet and air comes out of my helmet. then I took it off and push my hair back.

she was surprised of how I look.

I didn't mind her looking at me. but I was wondering where the other were at. so I ask her.

"They're out doing their own thing. sonic probably out for a run, tails working on a new project, knuckles lifting weights and sticks... well I don't really know what she does in her free time." she told me.

"what's your name?" I asked curiously.

"amy. amy rose. the blue one is sonic, red one is knuckles and the brown one is sticks." she told me.

"good to know, hey where is zooey?" I asked wondering where she is.

"we told her that you'll be fine and she went home."

"ok I look forward to it, say um...do you have anything to eat?"

"tails cooked you breakfast for saving his crush" amy just widen her eyes and cover her mouth realizing what she just said.

I chuckled "so that's why he blushed when he asked her." while smirking

i grab the plate and started eating while chatting with Amy for a good while. talking about our lives, what we do, what we like, and other things. then I noticed the time.

"wow time Flies by fast" I said shocked.

amy noticed as well and agreed then she realize something. "they should be here by now"

not after a while the gang shows up but stop when they see me. I then remembered about me not having my shirt and my mask on.

"oh yeah I'm sorry everyone forgot about me not wearing anything...do you guys know where my bag is?"

tails was about to say something but was stop by sonic.

"you'll get it until we're done about our meeting." he said almost meanfully.

I was bothered by him but comply if it mean to get my stuff back.

we all sat in a table and waited until sonic spoken.

"ok, so you came here because you want a vacation from some work, then you fought four robots while causing damage to the village, and here we are." he almost scolded at me.

amy stood up for me and said "sonic maybe you should calm down for a minute. he did saved zooey and stop Dr. eggman robots for us."

sonic breathes in and out for a second and continued

"yes I know amy but this is mostly what I'm worried about." he pulled out my bag and dump it on the table revealing all my weapons, gadgets, explosives and my jacket and my shirt and my helmet beside it.

"so can you tell us why you have these in your bag if you were just going on a "vacation" ?"

i sigh and said tell everyone about my backstory.

"the reason of why I came here is so I can get a break from my life for a while until I decided to go back whenever I wanted. the reason for my weapons is cause...(I hesitate for a moment) I kill bad people...very bad people."

all of them widen their eyes and continued to listen till I was done.

" I was getting tired of it for a while and decided to get out of my home city and take a break from it. after a while of boat traveling I came across your island and decided to stay until my time to leave.

all of them sit in their seats quietly for a good moment. until tails spoke to me.

"the people you killed...do they really deserved it?" he asked me almost scared.

"yes tails. they were really bad people. some of them killed a lot of people including kids."

"before we finish this. you're not here to cause trouble or harm right? sonic question me making sure of my intentions.

"yes. I promise. and also I will be gladly to help you guys out with that eggman guy." I told them.

"ok then. you can help but one rule you must follow if you're gonna live here alright?" he looked at me very seriously.

I nodded and wait for him to finish what he was saying.

"no killing. especially Dr. eggman." he tells me.

"deal. I will follow your terms." I told him.

"ok" he gets up from his chair and walks over to me held his hand out.

"welcome to the team" he said happily.

I smiled and shook his hand and got my stuff back. then all of us talked and got to know each other.
