I'm here with the next chapter of Teenage Superpower Ninja Heroes. This chapter will have Amy, Blaze, and Sticks helping the guys search for Sonic's uncle. Meanwhile, we'll get to witness a dark part of Cream's childhood and what she does every day. Thank you to the people who have left reviews so far, I really appreciate it. Let us continue!
Normal POV
At the New York City Police Station, Fiona the fox was looking at her latest suspect's profiles. She searched through all the files until she stopped at a cream-colored folder. She opened the folder to see it was the criminal profile of Cream the Rabbit. Fiona examined her profile and decided to call Cream's mother Vanilla. She dialed Vanilla's number and was greeted by her tired voice.
"Hello?" Vanilla asked through the phone.
"Yes Mrs. Rabbit. This is police chief Fiona and I'm sorry to be calling this early in the morning." Fiona said.
"Oh no. It's fine, how may I help you?" Vanilla asked.
"Yes Mrs. Rabbit, do you have a daughter name Cream?" Fiona asked again. Vanilla was now very worried; why would the police chief be calling her about her daughter Cream.
Amy's POV
The sun was beginning to rise over the city and the sunlight made its way to my curtains. I slowly open my eyes to the sunrise and sat up to stretch. I got out of my bed, put on my bathrobe, and went out into my living to check on the boys. Sure enough, Sticks and Blaze had woken up as well to see the boys still sleeping peacefully. That was until Tails began to wake up and the others soon.
"Morning." Tails said yawning. Shadow and Knuckles sat up to stretch followed by Silver and Sonic. I then heard the sound of my front door knocking, startling everyone.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"It's Vanilla and Cream. I need to talk to you." Vanilla said from the other side of the door. I looked back at Blaze and Sticks in fear; what are we going to do about the boys. The boys looked back at each other, then at me and my roommates.
"Uh…Just give me a minute…" I began to say going to the front door. The girls followed me, but when we turned back around the guys had vanished.
"Where the hell did they go?" Blaze asked surprised.
"I don't know." Sticks replied. I looked around for a moment, then open the door to let Vanilla and Cream into my home. I could tell that something was wrong because Vanilla looked upset at her daughter, but why.
"Sorry to bother this morning Amy. I really need to talk to you. I think it's time you drop the Shadow Hunters story." Vanilla said. I was completely shocked by her words; it's my story and how dare she come her and order me to drop the story.
Normal POV
"That is absolutely out of the question! I have a legitimate news story here." Amy said walking into her bathroom. Blaze, Sticks, and Vanilla followed her as the cat and feral badger watch the pair argue. Cream just sat down in one of the kitchen chairs, minding her own business.
"Amy, ever since you started working on this story, you have been targeted and I'm just caring about your safety." Vanilla said.
"You have nothing to worry about Vanilla." Amy replied as she began to wash her face. Cream was looking around when she saw something in the living room mirror; Tails under the kitchen table. She turned around to find Tails gone; surprising the young rabbit.
"Who was that?" Cream said to herself. Meanwhile, Amy was still arguing with Vanilla, Sticks and Blaze were watching when Blaze caught a glimpse of red dreadlocks behind the shower curtain. She tapped Sticks shoulder and quietly pointed at the shower; causing both girls to gasp.
"Can one of you hand me my towel behind the shower…" Amy looked up to see the red dreadlocks as well.
"Sure Amy." Vanilla replied politely.
"No! Don't…" Amy couldn't finish as Vanilla moved the shower curtain. Surprisingly, no one was behind the curtain.
"What's the problem?" Vanilla asked.
"Oh nothing Vanilla. It's just I need to get ready for work and I need my privacy." Amy said pushing everyone out of her bathroom. She looked up to see Knuckles hanging on the ceiling, relieving Amy. As Amy pushed everyone to the front door, she saw Cream looking around the bottom of the kitchen table.
"Cream, will you please tell your mother I need my privacy." Amy said to Cream.
"Like she will listen to me." Cream said getting up and dusting herself off. Vanilla and Cream made it to the front door ready to leave.
"Look Amy, I'm just looking out for what's best for you." Vanilla said as she and Cream left their home. Once they were gone, Amy, Sticks, and Blaze let out a huge sigh of relief; unaware that Silver was pretending to be a rug on the floor.
"Wow!" Silver said getting up, scaring the girls. Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, and Shadow came out of their hiding places.
"That was a close one Tails." Sonic said.
"I know. Sorry about that." Tails replied.
"No sweat man." Shadow said patting the young fox's shoulder.
"Hey Amy, you should really lay off the damn caffeine." Knuckles joked. Amy rolled her eyes and smiled at her friends. This was going to be harder for the girls than they thought. Meanwhile, Vanilla and cream were driving back to their home. Cream just stared out the window as her mother looked at her with a disappointed expression.
"I just don't understand Cream. I make more than enough money to support us and you're out in the streets stealing. What the hell were you thinking sweetie?" Vanilla asked. She couldn't believe her own daughter was out stealing.
"I don't know." Cream simply replied.
"That's a wrong answer and you know it. I didn't work all the years just so you can steal from everyone you know." Vanilla stated getting a little angry. Cream felt a few tears welling up in her eyes and couldn't stay with her mother any longer. She quickly got out of the car and ran away from her mother.
"Cream! Cream!" Vanilla said stopping the car. She was too late, Cream was already far away for her to catch and she didn't know what to do now. Cream just ran and ran until she reached a familiar that has become her home away from her mother; the abandon warehouse.
It was now nighttime in New York City, and the abandon warehouse was surprisingly full of life. Inside, there were hundreds of kids playing video games, eating, smoking cigarettes, gambling, and enjoying the items they have stolen today. They were carefully being watched by a green hedgehog in a black leather jacket, boots, red shades, and had scars across his chest. It was none other than Scourge the Hedgehog; Sonic's anti.
"Good!" Scourge said looking at what the kids have stolen today. Everything from TV sets to stereos, Scourge's thieves were enjoying their "presents". Scourge continued to watch on, not even caring if the children bumped into him. He would look down at them and simply reply to the kids.
"Go play! Have fun!" Scourge said leaving the fun room. In another room in the abandon warehouse, young male hawks were training their combat skills with their master; a green hawk in black Converse sneakers, green and black MMA gloves, and a black, tattered karate gi with the sleeves torn off. It was Scourge's ally Jet the hawk, a master martial artist.
"Good!" Jet said watching his students train. One student was able to defeat his opponent, impressing Scourge when he arrived.
"May I?" Scourge asked Jet.
"Not at all." Jet said. Scourge entered the fight circle as Jet's student bowed in honor. Scourge showed off his combat skills, but the young martial artist was able to block every blow. Scourge stopped as the student bowed to him again, leaving him vulnerable for Scourge to deliver a kick. Jet and Scourge kneeled at the down student.
"Never lower your guard to your opponent." Jet said.
"Yes master." The student replied. Just then the sound of a gong was heard throughout the warehouse. All the children and karate students dropped what they were doing and headed to their main room. Once they were gathered, the mysterious figure from before made his way to the open room. He was dressed in dark clothing and boots and held a ninja mask in his right hand. A young hawk kneeled in front of the figure as he pulled out the mask.
"Welcome to the Shadow Hunters my child." The mysterious figure said putting the ninja mask on the young hawk. The hawk bowed in respect again and left. Scourge and Jet stood next to the figure as he took off his hood, revealing himself as a dark green and black hedgehog.
"Mephiles the Dark." Scourge and Jet said bowing to their master.
"My children! The outside world has betrayed you. You are no longer wanted in the outside world. You have joined me to be accepted again. You are my children and I am your father." Mephiles announced to the children. Somewhere inside the warehouse, someone was chained to wall and had suffered a beaten face; it was Uncle Chuck.
"Now we have a new threat. These creatures have invaded our home and now we must eliminate these so called pests. These freaks!" Mephiles said to his brainwashed children.
"Master!" A voice was heard from the children. Mephiles and his allies looked up into one of the stands to see the child approaching the front; Cream.
Back at the Channel 5 news station, Amy was talking to her fellow anchorman about the Shadow Hunters. At the same time, Sonic and his friends were watching the report with Blaze and Sticks. They were watching in hopes of learning any clues or whereabouts of Uncle Chuck. Sonic hoped they could find anything about his uncle; he really misses him.
"So Amy, do you believe that these recent crimes are being done by an ancient criminal organization?" The anchorman asked.
"Yes I believe so. I have recently talked to many Japanese-Americans and they have told me that these crimes are the work of a criminal organization called the Shadow Hunters." Amy replied. Vanilla was watching the entire scene and shook her head in disappointment. She knew they were definitely screwed and she was right because Fiona called the news station.
"Damn it Vanilla! We had a deal!" Fiona said through the phone. Sonic and his friends continued to watch Amy. The anchorman continued to interview Amy until he asked an important question.
"I understand that you were attack a few nights go by a group of thugs. So we all like to know who was your savior?" The anchorman asked.
"Well it's an amazing story. A brave New York citizen came to my rescue and defeated my attackers. So if you don't mind, I would like to thank him right now." Amy said as she now faced the camera, as if she was seeing Sonic in front of her.
"If you are watching this right now, thank you Sonic." Amy said blowing a kiss to the camera. Blaze and Sticks gasped in happiness while Knuckles, Tails, Shadow, and Silver looked back at Sonic with smirks on their faces. Sonic watch the whole scene and heavily blushed.
"Aw look, Sonic's blushing!" Knuckles teased.
"I'm not!" Sonic replied trying to hide his blush.
"I think he's actually turning red!" Silver teased too. Sonic's answer was throwing a knife at Silver, hitting the floor right in front of him. Knuckles and Silver looked down at the knife, scared by the close call.
"Maybe we should leave him alone." Tails said to the pair. Sonic stood up and grabbed his knife off the floor.
"It's okay Sonic. You don't have to be embarrassed." Sticks said. Sonic didn't pay attention and walked to the window.
"So what the hell do we do now?" Sonic asked.
"What do you we mean what do we do now?" Shadow said standing up.
"My uncle is out there and we're stuck in here like a bunch of idiots." Sonic said looking out the window. Blaze, Sticks, and the rest of the boys watch the fight slowly develop.
"What's going on?" Blaze asked Silver.
"Fight?" Silver said to Knuckles and Tails.
"Fight!" The pair replied in unison.
"Kitchen?" Tails announced.
"Kitchen!" Knuckles and Silver responded. The three boys quietly dragged Blaze and Sticks to the kitchen with them, wanting to avoid the fight that was about to take place.
"We do nothing for now Sonic. We wait until your girlfriend Amy comes back with news about your uncle." Shadow stated. The thought of Amy being his girlfriend made Sonic angry at that very moment.
"Oh, so that's what my "brother" has to say to his leader. We just sit here on our asses and wait Amy for some stupid news." Sonic said sarcastically.
"That's not what I meant Sonic and you shouldn't be saying shit about Amy. She's trying her best to help you and all you're doing right now is talking shit about her." Shadow responded in anger.
"Yeah, well maybe I didn't want Amy's help. Chuck is my uncle and I don't need your help searching for him." Sonic said angrily.
"If you're so damn confident you can find your uncle, then be my guest." Shadow angrily replied.
"Fine! I'll look for you without you or anyone else asshole." Sonic angrily said grabbing his katana swords and walking out.
"Good! I don't give a dam anymore! We don't need you!" Shadow said.
"Fine!" Sonic said slamming the door hard. Meanwhile in the kitchen, Blaze and Sticks overheard the fight and became very worried. Knuckles, Tails, and Silver were at the kitchen table eating snacks and hearing the fight too.
"Should we help them?" Blaze and Sticks asked the trio.
"Those two always fight. It's best if we stay out of it." Silver replied. Knuckles and Tails looked at each other while eating chips.
"Potato chip?" Knuckles said holding up a chip.
"Potato chip!" Tails happily said accepting the chip.
