Genocide

I'll show Sonic I can be helpful.

Did she really wanted to do that? Did she want to protect him, even though she could barely protect herself? Did she want to pay him back for him protecting her from danger ever since she was eight years old? She didn't really know. In the back of her mind, she knew this was all unnecessary. She sighed and threw her weapon on the ground. Her hammer bounced on the dark, concrete street and landed with a loud thud.

Amy slowly slid herself down, to one of the nearly destroyed building's wall, and sat on the ground. The pink hedgehog propped her elbow on her knees and rested her chin on her hand. Should she just go back to her house and let Sonic take care of anything? She didn't even feel like helping out anymore.

She just wanted to go home now.

"Something troubling you, my dear?" An eery voice whispered, softly, behind Amy. His voice sent shivers down her spine. She had the guts to actually look over her shoulder and see who the owner of that creepy voice was. Well, thanks to the dark, she couldn't really make out any of his features. Well, except the obvious facts that she could describe about him. He was a black hedgehog, had gray streaks that went through his black quills, and he had green eyes, that were piercing right at her. Alarmed, she stood up and grabbed her hammer from the ground.

"Who are you, and what do you want?" She asked, hauling the red and yellow hammer above her head, ready to strike if he came closer.

"Good evening," Was all he said, inching his way to her. Her hands started to tremble. Who was he? What did he want with her? What's wrong with him? Amy took a step back.

"Get away, I have a weapon!" Her voice called out shakily, nearly shattered. Amy held her hammer high in the air to show her weapon. He laughed at her in mockery. He gazed at her with a devious smirk on his face.

The petrified, pink hedgehog gulped and as fast a lightning, she turned the opposite way from him and ran away. She dashed as fast as her legs could carry her. While running, she desperately tried to ignore the aching feeling in her legs. Her heart battered in her chest, she started to gasp for air. She wanted to stop. But she mentally told herself not to, even though her body was about to. She didn't know if he was following her. She didn't want to look back either. In horror movies, they always say "Never look back."

The chilling wind blew at her like it was daggers piercing through her flesh. She wished she didn't dispose her warm robe. She wished she listened to Sonic. She wished she was home.

Up ahead, Amy turned a sharp right and ran down a dark alley. The alley was much darker than before, this would be a perfect place to hide away from him. The pink hedgehog slowed to a stop, she reached at the back of the alley. The alley trapped her with a brick wall and two walls on both sides of her. Surprisingly, the alley was still up, partially. It didn't crumble to the ground by the attack. The only way out of the alley was to go back the way she came in. It was pretty narrow in the alley, but Amy didn't really care about that right now. She gasped and rested in the rear of the slum. Her legs ached and her heart cease to pound barbarically in her chest.

To her antipathy, the same shady character from earlier stood at the entrance at the alley. Amy shrieked and pressed her back against the alley's brick wall.

"Keep away!" Amy shut her eyes, tightly, unable to believe that this was actually happening. He dragged his feet to her and his gaze was at the ground. He came to her with an unknown goal. Come to think of it, everything about him was unknown. He kept dragging his feet towards her. He was so close to her now. She found herself unable to speak, unable to move, and unable to think. Just like back in the forest.

"Hey buddy!" Someone from the entrance of the alley shouted. Mephiles looked over his shoulder and gazed at him. "I wouldn't do that if I were ya!"

A blue blur dashed into the alley and kicked his foe into the brick wall, almost hitting Amy in the process. Amy shrieked and ran up to Sonic. She cowered behind him.

Hm...do I sense a battle in the next chapter? ;)

Okay this chapter is done! Yay! Just a few more chapters and this story will be over.
