Ch.15
Another chapter for you guys! Let's see why Scourge is back in jail...
Here were go...
THD
"Scourge...? What? What are you...doing back here?" Sonic asked with some sympathy in his voice. Scourge exhaled, not answering for a full minute until responded "..I got nowhere else to go Sonic" he whispered
"What?"
"I said I have nowhere else to go"
"What do you mean you have nowhere else to go?" Sonic asked. Scourge just looked at him, grunted "What happened?" Sonic continued. The green hedgie still didn't answer "What happened?" He asked again
"They kicked me out of the Suppression Squad, I'm not the leader anymore...alright" Scourge quickly answered
Sonic raised a brow.
"Rosy and everybody made me leave my home world for good, it's all because of freaking Fiona had to blab her mouth off and eventually ruined me, I bet your pretty happy now, blue"
Sonic doesn't feel happy, he felt some more sympathy for him which extremely unusual."Actually Scourge no, I'm not happy.. I'm just angry that Fiona had to put your personal business out there like that, it's not right not even you deserve dude" Scourge looked at him in an odd way. Is Sonic helping him or something? "Yes Sonic, I do deserv-"
"No Scourge, when me and you fought, I never said a thing about your personal stuff, we always say what we believe in a certain situation"
"I guess your right then" Scourge agreed, smothering his face with his hands "Guess its right huh?"
Sonic shrugged, then he walked off to the left, and grabbed the same rusty chair that he sat in before, propped in front of the cell and sat down facing forward "I know I don't normally to someone such as you but.. I felt bad for you Scourge"
"Felt bad for me?" Scourge said in a weird tone
"Yeah, what Fiona did was wrong, not only you also the rest of the Squad as well. So uh... tell me how you manage to get back with them in the first place?"
Scourge inhale and exhaled deepily and sat up straight "Well uh.. the funny thing is that I.. apologize to every one of them, saying I take full responsiblity and I promise that I.. will be a better leader this time, they accepted me back in, told Rosy she's in the team and I proved it by not abusing them or barking orders at them like I did in the past" He said "They began to like me too, especially Rosy..."
"Hmm...wow green bean, didn't know you have a big change in you man" Sonic smugged
"Pfft! When you get arrested one day and get sent to the No Zone Jail, blue you'll understand"
"Probably one day when I screw up on something.. probably something big..." Sonic trailed off
"Yeah something big" Scourge said softly
They both kept quiet, as the conversation came to abrupt end as the hedgehogs were both looking down awkwardly, possibly trying to think of something to keep this going in Sonic's case. "Is Sonic ever gonna talk or what?"Scourge thought "He always keep his engine running if he knows what that means..probably not he's bigger moron than me, possibly O'Nux.."
"Damn this ended sooner than I thought... but I always wonder what made Scourge what he is today... and how did he meet the others? I need to find a good time to ask him.."
A few minutes later, Sonic spoke again "Scourge, can you tell me why uh...sorry if this sounds too personal to you but uh... why do you act like that the way you are?" Scourge's eyes became bright filled with a grudge he kept bottled up inside "Like what made you act like that?"
He forced through his nostrils "It's a really long story Sonic, I'll make it short as possible. When I was young like around 7, my dad held this thing called in Moebius "The Great Peace" while you guys had "The Great War", he was the best speaker in the planet and it was very successful. I was there that day, but the thing is Sonic, is that he never paid any attention to me when I kept tugging at his cape"
The blue blur kept quiet without interrupting him
"All he cares is the goddamn "Great Peace" crap, he ignores me every time I tried to get his damn attention. Asshole always busy 24/7, he neglected, never cared about me and didn't do anything about it, he was the only family I have, my mom died and I have no brother or a sister, just him"
"Just you and him?" Sonic asked
"Yeah, just me and him and then suddenly like 3 or 4 years later, I think. The world became stagnated and fell apart, by that time I formed the Anti Freedom Fighters with those guys, they used to make fun of me because I'm not "cool enough" for them. What I did is something I regret when I thought about it"
Sonic pondered for a moment "What you do? Overthrow him or something?" He chuckled
"Nope, I killed him"
Sonic became speechless, his jaw was hanging slightly open "You...killed your own father?" Scourge nodded his head in guilt "Yeah, then I became bad by using tyranny and fear to get Miles and them to bow and respect me, became leader when we overthrew Alicia's dad from his throne. I wandered out in the fields one day, you bumped into me and the rest is history"
"Woah" was all Sonic could say, then he came up with something "But what do you really want this whole entire time? From the start?"
"All I want Sonic... is a family. A family that loves me, respects me, cares about me and look out for each other. That's why I formed the Suppression Squad, even though I planned to take over your HQ one time, but deep down I was hoping we can became than more just a team... but instead I was corrupted with power and it didn't happen at all"
"Yeah, I remember that day.." Sonic looked rather unpleasant about it but the same time,sorry. He's been through really tough times. "How did you meet Rosy?" he asked
"Rosy...she was a little girl down in a alley when I found her, she stole some food from me when I walked down the street one day, she was an orphan just like all of us but I don't know what happened to her family. But she wore really dirty clothes, and she annoyed the hell outta me that time and she was only 8 years old"
"Reminds me of Amy..." Sonic mumbled, memorizing their first meeting in Little Planet, Scourge continued "Since our first encounter, she always tries to find a way to join my team but we always ended up rejecting her, even laughing at her failed attempts and made fun of her. She decided to use a power ring to make herself older, but she ended up became a crazy psycho that wants to kill me"
"She was..." Sonic shuddered "She even tried to kill me!"
"But now, we both have a major crush on each other because I admitted my feelings before I left Moebius. I thought Fiona was the one for me, but turns out she never really loved me at all..."
"By the way... is it true you and Fiona had sex?" Sonic questioned
"Actually we slept together, no we did not have sex, the rest didn't believe me" Scourge said
"So I've heard"
Moebius... 15 minutes later
Fiona was surrounded by the Suppression Squad who were armed and threatening to attack her if she doesn't leave. Alicia demanded, holding a whip "Why in the hell are you here? Your not our Queen anymore, go back where you came from!" They were all in attack stances ready to strike.
"Or else!" Buns yelled
"Guys please, let me explain why I'm here!" She exclaimed, she didn't dare attack back knowing she will lose, they were very highly trained last time she was with them, what did Scourge do to them? Miles had a calm, sour expression on his face while the rest were pissed off when they saw here. "Hold it Squad!" Rosy's voice ordered.
She emerged and stood in front of them. Fiona was a bit surprised. Is she the new leader or something? "Fiona, why are you here, you done enough damage already, go home" She talked with a cold toned voice
"Rosy look, what I did was wrong. It was wrong of me putting Scourge's personal business out there, I was stupid" Fiona assured "Zhen why you did it?" Patch asked. "I was gonna fight her for what she did to me, but instead I did that and I don't know why" The Squad exchanged glances at each other. "I started drinking booze a while ago, that's what messed me up..."
"Sounds like a big excuse to me..." Rosy said, half closing her eyes "Anyway, was it true that you and Scourge did it? I want the truth Fiona" She narrowed her eyes at the red fox
"The truth is.. no I lied about it. The reason why he slept with me, he wanted some comfort because... he was severely desperately and missed you Rosy, a lot"
Rosy's expression changed almost immediately, her eyes starting to tear up a little "He missed me?" The Squad was silent. "Yeah, he wasn't himself, he talked about you everyday, he secretly loves you Rosy and regretted everything he done to you. He should be with you not me. He said the same thing about the Squad also" Fiona pointed at everyone else.
"My Scourgey does love me... and the rest" Rosy whispered "Even misses me" some of the members had some sad look as well.
"Another thing... I want to say I'm sorry for everything I did to you, and I didn't mean for this to happen and I take back everything I said... can you guys forgive me?" Fiona asked, with a saddened tone behind it
The team pondered about it for 5 seconds. "Yes Fiona, we forgive you" The Squad said in unison
She smiled "Thanks guys, but um where's Scourge?"
"Oh man, we kicked him out a while ago, do ya think he went back to the Prime castle lads and lasses?" O'Nux suggested
"Oh no..I think he did.." Fiona said "What were gonna do?"
"I say... let's start a fresh new plan... were getting Scourge back" Rosy announced "Were going to attack much differently than before..." She smirked evilly
Back in Knothole Prison...
"And that's how I ended up back in here as simple as that" Scourge boasted
"I see obviously" Sonic said "That's one way to end up here like that" He laughed
"Oh yeah one thing Sonic...want to be friends?" Scourge asked
"Sure I guess" Sonic smiled "Were friends"
Then suddenly the doors that leads to the courtyard was barged open and in came two heavily armed, higher ranked guards who are tigers marched in "Sonic the hedgehog, there's has been orders from the King, that Scourge the hedgehog is sentenced to be hanged for attacking and damaging property and the king himself we are here to escort him" one of the guards bellowed. Both hedgehogs couldn't believe this! Sonic became angry and felt a bit of a rebellion going crazy in his head
"No! I'm not letting you take my friend there!" Sonic, spread his arms and legs, blocking the cell. "You have no other choice Sonic, move aside!"
"Never!"
"You leave us no choice then..." One of the guards unexpectedly in a flash kicked Sonic to the side, sending him flying to the other side of the prison, while the other grabbed Scourge who fought back ended up getting handcuffed, and they dragged him away "Sonic!" He yelled.
Sonic, violently shook his head til he can see again and saw Scourge and the guards left outside into the courtyard. In a quick reflex, he zipped to the door, but it was too late. Its closed and locked from the outside "No! No! No! Scourge!" He screamed, pounding at the door. "Have to make it there quickly!" He said
Sonic then ran up the stairs, finding an alternate path to the courtyard.
Scourge is sentenced to be hanged! Can Rosy and the Squad will be able to save him in time? Find out in the next chapter!
There ya have it folks! I apologize for rushing it, since it's updated very early in the morning.
Also, I want to give a big thanks to those who reviewed, favorited/followed for supporting me and this story! It means alot to me!
To Bearvalley3365: I'm not sure on planning to add your OC in later chapters to have a role :( But don't worry, him and his girlfriend may appear as cameos in this story, be on the lookout for that :) and when I think of a sequel, he might have a role. Also, Simon is a gorilla that once lived in a village with his uncle I think and other gorillas, when he fought Eggman's robot, he was overwhelmed . When he met Mammoth Mongol, he told him to leave to his village. Read Sonic Universe #30 online or something, where Scourge is in jail and trying to recruit Simon and then you see who he is.
See you guys later!
