I found Dannie at the park. She was under the tree where I first thought she a pain. I stopped a few feet away from her and sighed. I wanted to apologize more but I doubt she would listen or even believe me.
"Dannie?"
She looked up at me and my heart sank. Her eyes were red and tears were still falling. I sighed and walked up to her. I sat in front of her and looked at her. She brought her knees to her chest and rested her head on them.
I sighed and leaned my head against her knees. She really didn't do anything so I just sat there laying against her. I just heard her crying and it made me feel horrible.
"I can tell you anything and everything you want to know if it'll help you forgive me." I frowned. I didn't want her angry with me or anything.
"I wouldn't believe a damn thing you tell me." she said firmly through a few sniffles. I sighed and just stayed where I was. She didn't speak so I did.
"A while ago G.U.N. used me as a lab rat. That would explain the scars and my arm. The people who I thought were my friends ditched me and went off to better and bigger things. I wouldn't be surprised if they were married by now. I was married too. But to a whore. Her name was Sally Acorn. Heard of her?" she still didn't say a thing. I kept my head against her knees and continued on.
"She had a few kids but they weren't mine. They were someone else's so I ran. I changed my name and appreance to who you came to know as Scott. I just wanted to start over and leave the past behind me. But I didn't know Amy would come and hunt me down. So you see. The only reason I was lying was because I just wanted a different life and start of new. Can you believe that?" After confessing my guts out I looked up at her. She was staring at me and frowning.
"As much as I want to believe you I don't." she sniffled. I sighed and walked around to sit next to her. I laid my head on shoulder. I don't know what I was doing. I just didn't want to leave her alone for anything. She placed her head back on her knees and I didn't hear her cry. I guess she just wanted to be silent.
"Do you think you'll ever believe anything I say again?" I asked. She turned her head in my direction and frowned. She sighed and looked at me straight in the eye.
"I'll believe you again when I'm ready to." she said firmly. That was good. At least she would. Someday. I hope.
"Thanks." I sighed. I took my head off her shoulder and looked off to the distance. I think it's time I really left for good. I stood up but I felt her grab my hand. I looked down at her and she was looking up at me.
"So you're leaving?" she asked. I shrugged and said, "I won't if you don't want me to." She smiled and shuck her head. Well I don't think she'll believe a word I say but I suppose she does want me to hang around. If that makes any sense.
I sat down again and nuzzled my head against hers. She just sat there while I tried to....I have no idea what I was trying to do but I did get her to actually smile. That was good. A smile. I kept my head against hers and just sat there. At first it was to comfort her a bit. I did try to hug her but she pushed me off. I did expect that one so it wasn't a burn on me.
"I'm heading home." she said suddenly. I stayed seated while she stood. She looked at me and smiled a bit. I smiled back and she turned to leave. I sat alone for a while until I heard my name being called.
"Sco...Sonic?"
I turned and Dannie was staring right at me. She smiled and said, "Aren't you coming?" I stared at her full of question. She made no sense what so ever. Was she mad at me or wasn't she.
End of Point of View for a second.
"Sir, I have a shot at him. What's your command?" a soldier said from a roof top of one of the buildings that were surrounding the park.
Through the radio a voice said, "Fire at him a warning shot. If he runs. Continue the shooting."
"Yes sir." the soldier aimed his gun and had a perfect shot at him but he went for the ground.
Back to Sonic's Point of View
"Well if you..." I stayed quiet. She looked at me and stepped in front of me, "Is everything alright?" she asked me. I looked around and gasped.
"Move!" I shouted. I picked her up and dodged behind a tree. A heard three shots and they were aimed at where me and Dannie were standing. Shit. They found me.
"Sonic!?" she said sounding worried.
"I told you. G.U.N. was after me. I need you to go home. Straight home. Got it?" I said looking staright at her. She shuck her head and looked around.
"I'll be okay." I reassured her.
"But..." I placed her on the ground and held her close to me. She laid her head on my chest and I wrapped my arms around her waist.
"I'll meet you back there in 10 minutes. I promise you that."
"You're not suppose to pro..."
"Believe me. I'll be back at your house in 10 minutes. Ok? Now go." I pushed her forward but in the other direction. I knew they would shoot at her so I jumped out the minute they would see her. They kept firing at me so I ran dodged bullets as I went. Well. I didn't nor couldn't dodge all of them. I wasn't that lucky.
