Me: Name changed for Review reasons.
Chapter Four
Blaze: Meet Mighty Part One
As we ran to catch Sonic, I noticed something strange about him. Sure he was on track but, nobody could run that fast and get through such a big hall crowded with students that fast!
'He's keeping something from us…' I thought. 'And I'm going to find out, weather he likes it or not!'
"We'll never be able to catch up to him at this rate!' Silver groaned. I stopped running to catch my breath. But as soon as I did and was ready to go, someone bumped into me, causing me to fall straight on my face.
"Hey! Watch it, pipsqueak!" The name ran through my head. I gritted my teeth and turned to see who it was. It was the grey bird I had saw with Jet earlier.
"Hey!" someone else yelled. It was Jet, who came running up with the purple bird. "Leave her alone, Storm!" He came over and shook my hand. "Sorry about Bird Brain over there. He's kinda clumsy."
"Yeah…kinda…" I muttered.
"That's Wave and that kid is Storm. I'm Jet, if you didn't know!"
"Yeah, I know. Your in three of my classes before lunch." I grumbled, ripping my hand out of his and turning my back toward him. "Just make sure you watch your friends, because you'll end up regretting it if you don't!"
"Blaze! I'm sorry!" he cried, but I didn't look back. When it came to names, "push over" was not one of them.
"Sorry about her Jet! She's a little-" I cut Honey off, by dragging her and Silver off to a corner. I didn't know why I involved Silver in it, because he wasn't much of a friend, just some new kid. But I did, because right now, he was one of my three friends, that could've been six if I had been nicer back their.
"Listen to me, don't spread my business to people we don't know! It's bad enough we trusted Sonic!"
"Trusted?" Silver asked, his voice filled with disgust. "What do you mean, trusted?"
"We do still trust him, right Blaze?" Honey asked. "Right?" I didn't dare make eye contact with them. But even looking away, I could feel Silver's icy stare on me.
"Well I still do! And I don't care what you say Blaze, I'm going back there to apologize for you!" he yelled and started walking.
"You will not!" I didn't mean for my voice to get so loud, it just did. "Because that's my job! Not some weird push over new kid like yours! So just back off, alright?!?"
"Blaze,"
"Get off of me Honey!" I demanded, and pushed her out of the way. There was the door, stood Sonic with a sad look on his face.
"So you don't trust me anymore, huh?" He asked, barely loud enough for me to hear. "Then why are you still talking to me? Why are you still hear? Why did you even talk to me Blaze?!?"
"Just shut up! I didn't mean what I said back threw okay? I was just…I was just mad alright?!? If you hate me so much, then get out of my life!" I wanted to run, but I couldn't. My legs were frozen in place. And even worse, I was in front of the whole school, crying and yelling at the only friends I had…I had just made a bigger fool of myself then before!
'There goes my self esteem…' I thought. I expected kids to tease, I expected kids to gossip. But what I didn't expect was Sonic pulling me into a hug, and Silver and Jet's crew screaming to leave me alone.
"After the way I treated you?" I cried wiping my eyes. Honey laughed and so did Sonic.
"You really think a little feud would tear us apart Blaze?" she asked. "We've been friends since we were five! You can act as cold hearted and distant as you want, I know that I'll always have a spot in the warm part of you heart!"
"I was stupid to think someone like you would let someone like me do something like saying I'm sorry to Jet. It was my fault for even having the idea!" Silver said blushing. I snickered at his facial expression.
"And I'm sorry for eavesdropping. But then again, that's something I do too!" Sonic said, leaning back in his chair.
"But I should say sorry too Jet for what I said earlier…"
"Already done." Sonic said. "After Honey explained you had a trust problem, he didn't mind what had went down and said it was wrong for Storm to call you what he did!" I glared at Honey.
"Trust Problem?"
"But I'm pretty sure she meant it in the nicest way as possible!" Sonic said.
"I said f off!" someone screamed. We turned our heads in the direction of the scream. There was already a crowd…
"Another fight!" Silver said and ran over. Although I felt weird following someone I just meet, I wanted to see what was happening, so I did. Surprising Honey and Sonic came along too.
In the middle of the circle of students, there was a red echidna, much like the one we saw earlier, and a purplish pinkish chameleon. The chameleon gave the boy a smirk, which ticked him off and he started through punches angrily. But somehow, he turned invisible and we couldn't see him. But what we could see, was the echidna raised up in the air and slam dunked in a table. It was then, that Sonic recognized the boy and began to get in the fight.
"Leave Knuckles alone!" He screamed. I don't know what came over me, but I pushed people aside to get in with him. I was a fool, but I wasn't about to let my friend get hurt for a friend.
A friend I didn't know, or care about…But if he was important to Sonic, he was important to me too…
