WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS FEELS! Hope you enjoy!
Sonic sat with his back against the outside of Tail's house watching the sun rise. He hadn't been able to sleep because of a certain pink hedgehog who had just rejected him. After Amy said that she would never love him she jumped out of the tree and walked away without even looking back. Sonic had to admit that hurt...A Lot.
He thought that if she knew that he hadn't really meant the things that he said to her that she would forgive him, but it just made her even angrier! Sonic put his head in his hands "Ugh why are women so confusing" he grumbled.
When Sonic looked up he found Tails standing there smirking at him. "What?" Sonic asked. Tails plopped down next to him, "girl trouble?" Sonic chuckled "Is it really that obvious?" Tails scratched the back of his head "Yeah, I mean everyone knows you've had a crush on Amy for like what eight years?" Sonic's face immediately reddened "Wh-what?! Everyones know all this time?!" he sputtered. "Of course, you're not exactly stoic Sonic" Tails laughed. Sonic heaved a sigh "It's not like it matters anyway she made it perfectly clear that she wants nothing to do with me." Tails chuckled "I didn't peg you as one to give up Sonic." Sonic grinned "I just said she wanted nothing to do with me, I didn't say anything about giving up."
Amy sat on the roof of her house with her feet hanging over the edge while watching the sun rise. She hadn't been able to sleep because of a certain blue hedgehog. It took everything in her power one, to not scream when he said he loved her, (I mean come on, how long had she been waiting for that to happen) and two, to not turn around jump back into that tree and put a smile on his sad little face (how was she supposed to know Sonic looked so adorable sad?) Somehow she managed to stand her ground, she should be proud of herself but she felt like crap.
She put her head in her knees "Ugh why am I so upset?! he was a jerk to me first right?" she thought. However, he did save your life...twice...in two weeks." Amy let out a cry of frustration causing Maria to peek out of the kitchen window."Amy are you on the roof again?" "Ya" Amy answered her voice muffled because her head was in her knees.
Maria gracefully leaped out of the window and onto the roof and sat next to Amy. "I'm still waiting for an explanation on why you stormed into the house crying last night." Maria said softly."Sonic"Amy answered glumly. Maria's face contorted with anger "What the hell did that blue furball want?" Amy chuckled mirthlessly "Not much he told me he loved me and that he was sorry for breaking my heart." Maria looked stunned "HE APOLOGIZED?!" she practically screamed. "Maria! keep your voice down before you wake up the whole town." Amy said softly. "Sorry sorry" stated Maria "so what are you gonna do?" Amy flopped back onto the roof "I have no idea."
When the sun was finally up and Mobians started to awake the quiet town was suddenly filled with life. Cream walked walked through town saying hello to non fighters she had befriended but she clearly had someplace to be. "Oi Cream!" a voice called from behind her. When Cream turned around she saw Charmy walking towards her."Hi Charmy" Cream stated happily, "What are you up to today?" Charmy asked with a smile. Cream's ears began to droop as her smile faded, "I'm going to visit my mom today" she said while looking down. Charmy patted Cream's head while smiling warmly, causing her cheeks to redden, "would you mind if I came as well?" he asked. Cream managed a small smile, "I would like that."
They walked in silence to that graveyard that was built for Mobians that had lost their lives to Eggman. When they reached Vanilla's grave cream laid a bouquet of white carnations at the base of the tombstone. "They were her favorite." Cream said softly. She then slowly sank to her knees and touched the tombstone as tears began to stream down her face. "Mommy...I'm so sorry...Wh-Why did you have to save me! You should still be here, you never did anything wrong! You don't deserve this!" Cream began to yell as her silent tears quickly turned to heart wrenching sobs. In that moment Charmy pulled her into his embrace so that her face was in his chest.
"Cream this wasn't your fault." Charmy began as he stroked her head to try and calm her down. "Your mother loved you more than life itself, she wouldn't have been able to live on if you weren't in this world anymore." "I wasn't worth her dying for." Cream muttered tears still streaming down her face. Charmy lifted her chin so that she was looking at him in the eyes "Trust me Cream, you are worth dying for if I had to give my life to save yours, I wouldn't even hesitate. When you love someone, dying for them really is one of the easiest decisions in the world." Cream's eyes began to widen as Charmy's words began to sink in. "Ch-charmy, what are you saying?" Charmy's cheeks reddened "U-um that your mother loved you very much of course." He stammered while glancing away. Cream's tears slowly came to a stop and she gave Charmy a warm smile"Thank you" she said and buried her face in his chest once more.
It was high noon and Amy was still sitting in her Pjs lying on the couch. Maria walked out of the kitchen and heaved a sigh "Jeez, you've been moping around all day." she said as she plopped down next to Amy. "I'm not moping, just thinking really, basically about my life up until this point." Amy stated, Maria made a confused face "Wait, what do you mean?" Amy sat up and looked at Maria "did you know Sonic and I have known each other since we were infants?" "Really?" Maria asked, then she shifted in her seat a little. "Amy?" she asked, "Ya?" "Did you and Sonic know each other when your parents were still alive?" Maria asked cautiously. Amy's face softened, "Ya, we did...I've never really told anyone about my past, Maria...Would you like to know about my life before I came to Mobius?" Maria gave Amy a warm smile "I would love too."
When I was young, life was amazing. I had a mother named Anna, she was a beautiful dark pink hedgehog with hair to her knees, and kind purple eyes. A father named Eric, who was a handsome white hedgehog who I inherited my eyes from, and a sister who was two years older than me by the name of Kyra with white fur, and purple eyes, she was my best friend we did almost everything together. Eggman had always been a threat to our people, he killed without regard, and polluted the land, so battles were always being fought against his tyranny, even in my youth. Yet, things seemed so perfect, I never noticed the worry that sometimes plagued my mother and father's faces at night, or the occasional smoke cloud in the distance, I was naive and stupid, and I paid the price for it.
Sonic and Tails actually lived a few houses away from mine, they both lived with Sonic's mother, since his father, and both of Tail's parents had died in one of the many battles against Eggman. Tails was so young that he hardly remembered his parents, but sometimes Sonic used to tell me stories about his father before he met his untimely end.
Sonic's mother was so kind, she always took us all to the meadow that wasn't to far from the village to play, life was so wonderful...Sadly, these happy memories are the ones that have begun to fade from my subconscious, but the day that everything went to hell remains permanently etched in my brain.
We were only ten, yet Sonic had already made a name for himself when it came to fighting Eggman. Hell, Eggman even made a metal copy of him to try and defeat him. Sometimes my dad would help Kyra and I train since we could both summon weapons, a power we inherited from our mother. I remember being jealous because Kyra could summon a spear, and i could only summon my hammer. I thought that we were invincible, and nothing could ever hurt us...
I remember being the last one to wake up on that day, I remember deciding to wear my green top and orange skirt , I remember running down the stairs and my father greeting me by picking me up and spinning me in the air, and my mother kissing my forehead while tying my hair into two ponytails. Kyra said that she planned on finishing her book that day, so she couldn't play with me. So, I bid my family farewell and went to play with Sonic and Tails. When I arrived I learn that Tails was sick, and Sonic's mother was working on dinner, she told us that we could still go if we promised to be back by sunset, to which we both ecstatically agreed. At first Sonic and I were going to race to the meadow, but since we both knew how much faster he was we decided against it. Instead he scooped me up and ran getting us there in about thirty seconds.
Sonic and I used to get along so well, my mother was constantly making jokes on how we would grow up and get married, to which i always disagreed claiming he had "cooties". That day we ran through the meadow playing for hours, I had brought some beads, and we made matching blue bracelets, we even made a third for Tails to surprise him since he wasn't feeling well. We finally lied down and looked at the clouds passing by, that was our gravest mistake. I awoke hours later leaned against a tree with Sonic's head in my lap, it took me a while to realize that it was nightfall. I immediately shook Sonic awake and told him that we had to get back, all I could think about was how much trouble we were going to be in, what a juvenile problem to have. When we arrived back to the village I felt like I had walked into a nightmare. Homes were ablaze bodies were strewn across the ground, and the scent of blood lingered in the air.
Without thinking we both sprinted to our homes, when i burst through the front door I immediately began screaming for my family. When I ran into the living room I found my father and sister, they both laid in the corner of the room my father in front of my sister as if he was trying to shield her from whatever mutilated them both. My sister's corpse was still clutching the book that she never got to finish. I tried to scream, but no noise came out as tears flooded down my cheeks, I knew I had to find my mother, as i ran upstairs I heard movement coming from the kitchen. Whatever murdered my father and sister was still in the house. I ran as fast as I could up the stairs and locked myself in my parents bedroom. When I turned around I saw my mother, she had a large gash across her stomach, and tear stains on her cheeks. As I ran to her, her eyes slowly opened, and she smiled at me. She pressed a bottle into my palms, as the monster pounded on the door wanting for us to join my father and sister. Her voice was so weak when she told me to drink it, she said it was Cantarella, and to only take a sip, it would make me appear dead for an hour.
I did not question her and i drank, when I fell my eyes remained open, and I got to watch the monster break down the door, and make its way towards my mother where it sliced her open making her blood splatter across my face. It then leaned in towards my face looking into my glossed over eyes, and touching my neck to feel for a pulse, when he felt nothing he left. I laid there next to my mother not being able to move or cry, but just sit there looking at her desecrated body. I did not know how much time had passed but i heard footsteps running up the stairs, and then I heard a familiar voice screaming my name. I was so happy that he was alive, but my happiness was short lived, when he entered my parents room he immediately ran to me and cradled me in his arms.
Ah thats right I remember thinking to myself, I appear dead right now. He kept shaking me and telling me to blink my eyes, and wake up, and not to leave, Tails joined him shortly and began sobbing, both of their tears fell on my paralyzed face, but i couldn't respond, I couldn't tell them I was ok, I could just watch them. Sonic finally laid me down softly , closed my eyes, and dragged Tails out of the room saying that they needed to leave which I was grateful for, because i wasn't sure how much more i could take. More time passed, and i finally began to regain feeling in my body, I blinked opened my eyes, jumped up, and ran as fast as I could. I didn't dare look at my families corpses, and I ran straight out of the house, I knew I had to find Sonic, to let him know I was alive and okay. I ran for hours to the point where my legs almost gave out when I finally saw him, he looked horrified, I couldn't blame him, he had just held my seemingly dead body, and here i was walking around.
He ran, and I chased when he finally did slow down and turn around and really looked at me, I felt hands grab me from behind, when I turned around it was Metal. I almost laughed my whole family had been killed and now I'm being kidnapped? How unlucky could I be. I guess you could say i gave Sonic his first adventure that day. After he saved me from Eggman we've stayed together, meeting new people along the way. Making our family larger and larger. I have to admit I was fairly clinging after Sonic saved me...I was scared, he and Tails were all I had left, if they were gone I would be all alone. I was so sad for so long, but every time i seemed sad Sonic would make me laugh, or scoop me up like he used to and run me to a new meadow he found. I'm pretty sure that's when i started to fall in love with him...So when he left, everything shattered I didn't know what to do, and its hard to forgive something like that.
Amy turned around and looked at Maria who was wiping tears from her eyes. Amy gave her a soft smile. "So as you see I have had a lot to think about, I wasn't moping I promise" she said with a small chuckle.
I cried when I wrote Cream crying about her mom I have no shame. For those of you who didn't catch the connection in Amy's backstory, have no fear Cupcake is here! In the very first Sonic game Amy is introduced as a pink hedgehog running after Sonic, you play as Sonic running away from Amy before you finally stop, and can do nothing but watch as she is kidnapped by Metal Sonic. The rest of the game is a quest to save her. I just changed up the context a little bit. Ya see what I did there? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
