Okay, I said I wouldn't update but this is getting too suspenseful and my mind is actually killing me if I don't finish this part. (Ahhhh!!! Pain!)
Disclaimer: I don't own anyone except Rosey!
Rosey, still in her trance, walked out of the cave. Shadow was shocked, he told her to stay inside. It was dangerous outside but that didn't stop her. She walked right outside and stopped right at a tree looking up at the top of a branch.
Rosey, be careful okay?
She kept looking at the empty branch as Shadow ran after her trying to keep his vision clear from the pouring rain. Rosey touched the tree saw a vision. She was running around a tree with a armadillo like creature. They were laughing and smiling as she tried to tag him. She finally gave up and started to climb the tree instead. "Rosey! Watch out! I don't think the branch can support your weight." the male voice said. "Are you calling me fat?!" She yelled back. The yellow armadillo with the orange shell laughed and shook his head, "I just don't want anything to happen to you. Okay?" He said.
"Rosey, are you okay?" asked the confused hedgehog. Rosey just stood there with her hand on the tree. By now, they were both soaking wet. Rosey suddenly ran into the forest dodging everything, every tree, every rock as if she memorize the forest already.
Race ya! Bet I'll win!
Rosey ran as fast as she could while Shadow ran after her. "Rosey, wait! Where are you going?!" He cried. Rosey didn't hear him, the trance was too strong even for her to ignore.
You beat me? Whoa, your better then I expected.
She stopped with sudden jerk as Shadow slided to a stop and crashed into a tree because of the slippery ground. Rosey knelt to the ground to find a blue flower in the middle of a water-logged pond. She softly touched the flower bringing her to another flashback. The orange and yellow armadillo was giving her a blue flower like the one she was holding, "For the lovely Rosey, a blue rose." He said. "Blue rose? That's a pansy." She giggled. Meanwhile, Shadow finally regained his ground and was now standing beside Rosey.
A tear streaked off one of Rosey's eye, Shadow knelt down beside her. Rosey removed her touch from the flower to the soaken ground. Another flashback appeared, but this one didn't seem to cheerful. "Rosey! Run! The villiage is on fire." The orange armadillo cried. Fear was in his eyes while Rosey held onto him. "But what do they want?" She asked him in a painc-striken voice. "They...they..want..." He began, "What? Is it the emeralds? The Big one? The little ones? What?!" She yelled trying to figure it all out. "They want you." He said. "What?" Rosey said shocked. "The locket you have, the pendent around your neck. There was a ledgend, a girl would be the sucessor to the emeralds. You would be the person who would feel what they feel, their anger, hatred, power, weakness. Everything. I just never thought it would be you. Since you are connected to them, they want you to get to the emeralds. If you get kidnapped then..." He said leaving out the last part. Rosey was too close to tears by now. "Go now!" He said pushing her away into the bushes. She hit a stone with her ankle making her unable to move. She parted some of the leaves of the bushes to find a big person with the armadillo. "Where is she?" The person said. The armadillo didn't rerply, instead he punched one of the guy knocking him out when another person got something out that she couldn't make out. A shot rang through the forest and everything seemed like it played in slow-motion. The armadillo fell to the ground lifelessly. Rosey gasped but not loud enough for the men to hear. After they were gone, Rosey struggled to get up with her injury. She cradled the Armadillo in her arms, "Please, don't die on me now. Please, don't leave me alone. Don't go. Please..Please." She cried, tears falling like the rain in the sky. The orange armadillo lifted his hand and touch her cheek. "Don't worry Rosey, I'll always be with you." He said as his hand fell lifelessly from her face. The shocked expression on her face with tears streaming down off into the ground. "No, please, no. No, why? No! No! Mighty!!!" She cried.
Shadow put one hand on Rosey's shoulder as her pupils started appearing again. Tears appeared in her eyes, "Lies!" she cried. Shadow staggered back surpirsed.
"What?" He asked.
"Lies! This all lies!" She cried. She punched the ground.
"What going on?" Shadow asked as he got close to Rosey. Roseystopped punching in the ground and threw herself into Shadow arms crying.
"He died, protecting me." She cried. "He died...He died."
"Who died?"
"Mighty."
"Who's Mighty?"
"I don't know! All I know is that he died protecting me." Shadow's eyes were now filled with shocked. Shadow hugged her alittle tighter.
"It going to be okay. I'm here. I'll protect you." Shadow said quietly as the hard rain fell to a light shower. Rosey buried her face in Shadow's chest. "Let's go back to the cave. Okay?" Shadow asked, Rosey slowly removed her face and nodded wiping the tears away. Rosey and Shadow walked back to the cave as Rosey tries to recover from the events she had just witnessed. Shadow, on the otherhand, tries to forget the whole thing and go back to the way things were. He still thought Rosey was annoying, he knew that his goal was to find all 7 chaos emeralds but now he had to deal with an emotional Rosey. As they walked back nearing the enterance of the cave, Shadow looked at Rosey as her bangs cover her eyes in a dark shadow. "Are you going to be okay?" Shadow asked. Rosey lifted her head looking at Shadow.
"As okay as I'm ever going to get. But I'm going to be fine, I know there all lies. I can believe what I can't trust. I know that. So all I have to do is Keep my head up high and look towards the future instead of the wild delusions I just had. Okay?" Rosey said. Shadow said nothing. "You head back to the cave okay? I'll be there in a while." She said flying off into the distance. Shadow nodded and ran towards the cave. Meanwhile, Rosey stood on the branch looking at the sun in the fading clouds.
"You're the sweet dreams that soothe me when I can't fall asleep. You're the field in the middle of the city. When I'm rushing by at the speed of light." She whispered as the wind picked up. Tears started falling from her eyes again. " I understand... There may be grief and there may be pain. But I am aware You blind the darkness with who You are because..." She said as she wiped away the tears as she whispered the last of the words before jumped down off the branch. "Your always with me, watching me, protecting me."
Don't blame me if this is alittle too sad or cheesey, (Mostly cheesey) But I can't help it! I was listening to a cheesy song! And the cheesy song made me write a cheesy chapter. but it's still good right? Right? If ya'll don't know who Mighty is, it's an orginal character created by Sega and i still do not understand why he hasn't been in any games or anime. Weird but at least he's mentioned now! Muahahahahahahaha! Wait, that's a good thing. Anyway, I am not going to update until friday maybe! this time. it's for real.
