Blaze was surrounded by unfolded newspapers in her burgundy hotel bed. I need to really find a job quickly. I can't afford paying for a motel much longer. She navigated her fingertip through the black on white printed letters on the thin newspaper. I would walk to the Lemon Tea House and see if they'd hire me, but sense that little stunt that pink hedgehog pulled, I doubt they would want anything to do with me.
Blaze fell backwards into the bed, frustrated with how difficult searching for a new job was. I can still try… And if they don't hire me, I'm sure there's numerous other cafe's or restaurants that will consider me. Blaze sat up and looked out the window on the side of her bed to see the orange and red overtones among the skies, with the sun sinking lower and lower. I just need a moment to relax before I get up and do anything. Blaze laid back down, and closed her eyes.
Blaze reopened her eyes and looked out the window, only to see the sun completely gone, and the moon shining brightly over the dark sky. Oh no! I didn't think I was asleep that long! Blaze heard rumbling in the back of her, and quickly got up and twisted around.
"Who's there!" She walked slowly to the small kitchen and switched on the lights.
"Well, well, well, guess who's awake." Amy smiled evilly.
That pink hedgehog from earlier! Blaze was suddenly grabbed from her waist and was dragged to the middle of the room.
"Wha-" Blaze felt a big hand cover her mouth.
"Shut up, bitch!" Knuckles growled.
Amy slowly walked closer to Blaze, and crouched down to Blaze's level. "Now, what I wan-" Amy flew backwards from the force of Blaze's feet against her face.
Blaze bowed her head only to bring it back up and hit Knuckles from under his chin, which sent him stumbling backwards. She got up and put herself into a fighting stance.
"Looks like we underestimated this slut! Now we can't go as easy as we planned on her." Sonic laughed.
"Leave me alone! I don't want any problems! What do you want from me?" Blaze asked.
"What do I want? You know what you did back there!" Amy shouted.
"What! All I did was defend myself! I'm not going to let some girl like you bring me down! You were basically asking for a fight!"
"I never saw you here before, I just wanted to let you know who I am and that you shouldn't mess with me! I was trying to save you from future mess with me! But look at you now, in some mess with Amy Rose herself. You should've just sat and kept your mouth shut!" Amy shouted.
"Oh, you showed me who you were alright! Just another bitch with a bunch of insecurities, who fucks with people to feel better about themselves! Don't take your personal issues out on innocent people!"
Amy laughed, and pointed at herself. "Me? With insecurities? You're funny, Bitch!"
"So what are you doing this for, huh? For shits and giggles? So that must mean your parents raised you horribly wrong!" Blaze laughed, "I guess it isn't your fault, It wasn't your choice your parents made you a complete bitch. Whatever you bring outside comes from home, they say." Blaze smile evilly, knowing personally problems could bring even the toughest of people down.
"You bitch!" Angry tears trailed down Amy's face. "You don't know shit about me…" Amy clenched her fists. Amy charged towards Blaze and knocked her down. "You don't know shit about me, you fucking bitch!" Amy raised her fists.
"Whoa, Amy! Let's calm down here, ok?!" Sonic walked up towards Amy, and tried to grab her away from Blaze, only to be shoved away..
"Fuck off Sonic! Let me give this bitch what she has coming to her!" Amy shouted through her tears. "You don't know a single thing about me bitch!" Amy put a grip on Blaze's throat. The grip grew tighter and tighter. Until, her tears were cleared from her eyes. She looked into amber eyes and stared. She sighed and let go.
Amy pushed herself off of Blaze and blushed from embarrassment. Sonic, Knuckles, and Blaze had just saw her at her most vulnerable. I can't let her go telling the whole town what just happened… She will probably go and think I'm weak, and think she can mess with my head whenever she wants. Amy looked at Blaze, who sat up and stared in astonishment. Maybe if I let her hang out with me, so she can see I'm not some vulnerable slut, she will keep her mouth shut.
"Hey, you have some real guts standing up to me like that! What's your name?" She asked smiling, despite the fact her eyes were red and swollen from crying earlier.
"My name?" Blaze asked in doubt.
Yes, bitch, who else? "Yeah, you…"
"My name is Blaze! Not a force to reckon with! You made the wrong choice messing with me!" Blaze huffed and crossed her arms.
How cute, she thinks she's tougher than me. Once she sees what business I deal with around here, she'll know I'm not the force to reckon with. "Of course! You're tougher than I thought! You should hang out with me tomorrow! You're the type of tough person I need in my friend circle!" Amy held her hand out, to help Blaze get up.
"I'm sorry… I guess you didn't really do anything wrong earlier." Amy put on a frown. Sonic and Knuckles were raising their brow near the front door.
This sounds really fishy, but it's also an opportunity. If I hang out with her, I could get around the town and see the ups and downs of the area. Having a 'friend' that can help you around and maybe even let you bunk with them is also a good thing, too. If she tries anything funny, I can defend myself for sure. Blaze thought.
"Sure! But it's only because you owe me a ton from the mess you made in my room. You can make up your 'oh-so warm' welcoming by taking me out somewhere." Blaze crossed her arms and pointed her nose to the ceiling.
" Of course, Blaze, of course." Amy laughed, as if they know each other forever.
We'll be 'friends' alright… They both thought simultaneously.
