Next chapter equals more happiness for you all right? =D

After eating breakfast with somewhat bland oatmeal, the day went about pretty quickly. Sonic assisted Amy wherever she needed him weather it be sweeping the patio, to dusting the house, to even helping her fix lunch and early dinner meals. Soon quarter till seven appeared on Amy's atomic clock that was in the dinky kitchen and they finished their duties.

"I need to get going," Amy finally stated as she stuffed her keys in one of her skirt pockets and finished putting the last clean dish away in her cabinets.

"I'll come with to see if I can pick up a possible job somewhere," Sonic stated as he held up Amy's red wool jacket and she thanked him before slipping it on her body over her small dress.

"I really wish I could buy some new clothes," Amy groaned as she barely slipped into the small jacket and panted a bit for the tightness of both her dress and the jacket.

"I am amazed that you can still fit in that dress," Sonic chuckled as Amy spun around and gave him a threatening glare that silenced his outburst.

"Are you saying I am fat?" Amy nearly roared and Sonic knew right away his mistake for his terrible comment that he should have known Amy would not be happy with him.

"No, no," Sonic quickly corrected as he shook his head viciously and threw his hands in the air. "I meant to say that you have had that dress for as long as I can remember and you never changed your outfit once. I would think you would try to wear something different."

"I would love to wear something else," Amy quickly replied but her ears dropped in shame. "But I don't have the finances to change my outfit right now."

"Hopefully you will soon," Sonic assured as he opened the door and the cold winter air entered the house as he smiled at his host. "Let's just stop wasting time and get you to work."

The trip to the town was both nice and brutal at the same time. The numbing cold wind was brutal to the two hedgehogs, especially Sonic who wore nothing but his good old shoes that he has had since his early years as a child. Still during this time Amy and Sonic shared long conversations about their lives since they last saw each other. In a way Sonic treasured this moment more than the little personal time he had when he was king of Acorn Kingdom. Still half an hour later they arrived in side the small town that was called Shryliville.

The town wasn't entirely in the best shape, there were buildings that were in poor to terrible condition and some even looked like they could crumble at that very moment. Yet not all the down looked as bleak as the outskirts of it as the hedgehogs traveled deeper into the town it seemed to come to life. There were buildings in moderately good conditions and the lighting of the streets was much better than that in the outskirts.

"How come the outskirts look so beaten down," Sonic whispered to Amy and she simply grunted before she replied.

"The outskirts are controlled by a gang named the Silver Landers. They are known for being very violent and maliciously evil for rapping women. They mark their territory on the outskirts but sometimes they wander deeper into the town. Still the authorities are able to control them in the center but not the outskirts because there is just too much danger."

"Why doesn't Barret or Flora do anything about this?" Sonic asked. "When I was king I did everything I could to uproot these kind of gangs everyday."

Amy slowly shook her head before explaining, "Barret and Flora aren't in the kingdom right now."

This made Sonic stop in his tracks and Amy soon felt the absence of Sonic being beside her so she turned back to him to see his confused expression on his face.

"Where are they then?" Sonic sputtered.

"Supposedly there was a threat that came up that was threatening the kingdom and they both left to deal with it. That was four years ago so I don't know if they are alive or not."

"So there is no one in charge until we know their fate," Sonic growled in disgust as he kicked the dirt that he stood above.

"Barret appointed the city leaders to look over the country while he was gone but even they are powerless when their families are in danger," Amy sadly replied.

"Looks like everyone is in a no win situation except for the gangs, huh?"

"If you can keep away from them you'll be fine," Amy cautioned and she immediately motioned Sonic to follow her. "Come on I am going to be late for work."

The two hedgehogs trudged deeper into the city as they past a few bustling citizens either on their way home from a long day at work or doing their personal business. Soon Amy softly elbowed Sonic in his left shoulder blade and he gazed up at a small restaurant bar that had a blazing orange neon sign that said, "Welvrana's Home Bar!" They then entered the pristine establishment and Sonic looked around inside. The restaurant was definitely interesting. It was set up with a bar lined up with all sorts of bottles filled with different beers and wines but also there were booths at the other end of the building that had atmosphere like a nice family eatery.

"Well if it isn't my favorite waitress," a booming woman's voice echoed from behind the bar and Sonic whipped around to find a very attractive raccoon pop out from underneath the wood barrier and Amy smiled at her.

"Hi Welvrana," Amy respectfully greeted her boss as she smiled at her employee.

"Hey there Amy," Welvrana greeted before she turned her attention to Sonic, "so is this stud your boyfriend?"

"No he is just a really good friend of mine," Amy quickly answered as a small voice in her head vocally wished that Welvrana's accusation was true but she quickly shook it off.

"Oh so that means he is available," Welvrana answered as she gave Sonic a sexy wink and he immediately felt the effects of a harsh fusion of both flattery and embarrassment rack through his body. He took a moment to study Amy's boss and he noticed that she wore a somewhat revealing gray workout shirt that showed off a bit of cleavage as well as he suspected a short skirt. She had a small amount of make up on but she seemed to be a very respectful person with her business with her long brunette hair lazily combed.

"No I am a week and a half divorced," Sonic truthfully answered and Welvrana quickly asked, "What happened?"

"There was another man," Sonic vaguely answered and Welvrana gave him a look of sympathy to him.

"Oh you poor thing I know what you are saying," Welvrana responded and Sonic looked up at her in confusion. "I found out my husband had a mistress ten years ago and I immediately filed for a divorce. I have been in other relationships but most of the guys ended up being emotionless dickheads."

"Yeah Welvrana shows great compassion to those who have gone through divorce," Amy answered and Welvrana simply smiled back.

"Yep in fact all my employees have went through divorce except for old Rosy here and Bianca who's husband was murdered by a member of the Silver Lander's cause he was a cop hot on their trail on for a big drug bust," Welvrana answered as she nudged her head toward Amy. "Amy here is the most ogled waitress here and I am so surprised that for the last five years she has worked here she has never had a boyfriend. She kind of makes me jealous but I am okay with that."

"Anyways what's your name stranger?" Welvrana asked.

"The names Sonic The Hedgehog," Sonic reluctantly answered as Amy nodded him to tell the truth.

"Sonic, huh?" Welvrana answered as she twirled some of her burgundy hair that fell over her face around her finger. "I have a feeling you are an important person but I can't exactly say how."

Sonic was surprised at this. Nearly all around Mobius there was not a person alive that didn't know his name but this was the first place ever that never even had heard of his name. Here he was just a normal blue hedgehog to everyone. Well everyone except Amy anyways.

"Anyways Sonic here had a bad divorce so he is staying at my place until he gets back to his feet," Amy stated as she interrupted Sonic's trail of thoughts. "He lost his job after he divorced with his wife because the other man was his boss."

"Oh that bastard and that bitch," Welvrana growled loudly and Sonic cringed at her statement. Sure it was true that Shadow was a bastard, no doubt about that, but when Welvrana called his ex wife a 'bitch' inside it hurt him that he couldn't defend his former wife to the untrue accusation.

"Well I have a job for you if you want blue boy," Welvrana answered as Sonic's body perched up. "You see my business has a thriving order delivery system where my delivery boy brings food to customers who call up their orders. However I am in a pickle since I fired my last delivery boy for sexually harassing Amy there," she stated as she again nudged her head in Amy's direction and Amy simply looked down at the marble floor in shame. Sonic was amazed by how much Amy had been sexually harassed during her stay here though he had to admit Amy had a very attractive body that would turn the head of just about any male. As soon as Sonic thought of that he immediately mentally slapped himself in disgust and disbelief that he thought of that.

"So if you want you could be my delivery boy," Welvrana continued as her voice knocked Sonic's senses back into reality. "I could pay you well and you would probably get some good tips in this weather."

"Sonic came from Acorn Kingdom so he doesn't know our money system," Amy interjected and Welvrana shook her head as if it didn't matter.

"Don't worry doll," Welvrana answered, "the food is prepaid so he won't have to worry about giving out change. I am pretty sure he is capable of following directions, carrying food, and getting tips. Besides our money system isn't that complex so I am sure you could teach him after work."

"But I don't know the town so how can I know where the clients live?" Sonic stated.

"Oh don't worry just use this," Welvrana insisted as she tossed Sonic a small black pad with a green orb levitating in the middle of it. "Just say the address of where you need to go and just follow it until you get to the destination."

"Okay," Sonic answered as he smiled at his new boss, "I'll do it."

"Alright let me get the food and the address and Amy here get into your uniform to get ready for the big rush," Welvrana gleamed happily as she rubbed her hands together.

"Okay boss," Amy happily answered as she left Sonic and entered the employee changing room. There Amy meet a black raven in a already a somewhat skimpy mini-skirt and a clutched up dress that says "Bar Girl" on it that revealed about the same amount of cleavage as Welvrana had. There was another female fox and phoenix in the room with the same outfit as the raven. Amy then opened a locker that had her name tag on it and quickly changed into the same outfit as her fellow workers.

"Another day, another guy that harasses me," Amy grumbled before she slammed her locker shut.

A few minutes later Amy finally huffed happily as she finished putting on her matching attire as her colleagues. She despised being dressed in such a skimpy uniform but most of the customers that would bring their business were mostly young to middle age men who were so lost in the world that they only found sexual fantasies and sexy young women's bodies seem to give them reasons to go on with their lives.

Then Amy lazily glances over to the entrance of the employee changing room thinking that Sonic would be like the last delivery boy and try to get a quick peek at the young women as they dress but instead the black raven is pocking her head out the crack of the door.

A few moments the raven glances outside until she finally retreats her head back into the safety of the changing room where she gives Amy a malicious grin. Amy only rolls her eyes before the raven responds, "Is that your hot hunk out there?"

"He is just a friend who has just been divorced, Trina," Amy answered as she tried to pull her mini skirt down a little more for it barely hid her undergarments from anyone's view.

"So you're going for the rebound then?" Trina inquired as she took another quick peek at her new coworker as he was getting informed by Welvrana.

"No, I used to be romantic with him but years passed and I got over him," Amy answered as she turned around to Trina and scowled her.

"So I guess he is available for me then," Trina snickered as she winked at Amy and started motioning toward the door to go flirt with the blue lightning stud. However as quick as the wind itself Amy lashed her hand around Trina's arm and stopped her in her tracks.

"Don't he isn't exactly over his ex-wife right now," Amy stated as she didn't want Sonic to feel any worse right now. "Trust me he is a wreck right now so just leave him alone for at least a month for him to get himself back together."

"Fine I will," Trina groaned as she rolled her eyes and shook her head lightly in annoyance of Amy's pleading. "But I am still going to tease him a bit."

Before Amy could stop her flirtatious friend, Trina slipped out of the dumbfounded hedgehog and she was zipped out of the changing room right beside the oblivious Sonic.

"Hey there sexy," Trina purred and Sonic immediately broke his concentration on Welvrana who immediately went silent by Trina's words.

"I hope you like fun," Trina hissed as her right hand squeezed Sonic's right butt cheek and he leaped in the air a it with a bright red muzzle.

"Because I am going to make sure we have lots of fun in the changing room," Trina finished as she winked at Sonic and left the flabbergasted Sonic and the giggling Welvrana to get ready for the coming customers.

"Looks like Trina has put you on her list," Welvrana giggled as she gazed at the blushing Sonic as his lips trembled in both fear and disbelief. "You better be careful around her, I found her once having at it with our first delivery boy after hours in the closet. The guy's lower body was sore all the next two weeks after that episode."

"Why in the hell is she-" Sonic was interrupted when Amy erupted from the changing with an expression of worry and fury. Sonic got a quick glimpse of Amy in the skimpy, sexy outfit and he had to immediately short his nose for he thought he felt a tingle of blood starting to drip down his nostril. His muzzle stayed relatively the same shade of red as Trina left it so Amy didn't suspect Sonic was blushing at her at least. However Welvrana shifted her eyes between Sonic and Amy and she immediately got an idea that there was definitely more going on that what they were leading on about.

"Sorry about Trina she can be such a sex crazed girl that she needs to be on a leash," Amy grumbled disdainfully.

"I can't help but agree with your logic," Sonic nearly yelped out in nervousness.

"All right I better get to work," Amy stated as she turned and followed her quirky co-worker as Sonic mentally slapped himself out of the spell Amy's body put on him so that he would not betray his former wife.

"Anyways back to business," Welvrana finally continued as Sonic snapped his attention back to his boss. "Just go into the changing room, grab the red jack labeled delivery boy and I'll set up the navigator for your route."

"Alright," Sonic responded and he made his way to the changing room. Inside Sonic felt extremely uncomfortable and nervous as the murmuring of the female workers shushed as they stared at him. They all had different looks at him, some where with uneasiness that must be from the previous delivery boy

, and others stared at him like they were lions and he was a large T-bone steak as they licked their lips with sex only on their minds. Sonic quickly snatched the jacket from the coat hanger on the opposite end of the small room and he speed out of their as quickly as he possibly could without his breakneck speed.

As Sonic arrived back at the bar he was immediately greeted with a large stack of perhaps fifteen small white boxes that emitted the aroma of all sorts of different meals and deserts that almost made Sonic lick his lips from the tantalizing aroma. Then Welvrana popped out from underneath the counter and he nearly lost his balance from the shock of his new boss's sudden appearance.

"Okay so just follow the directions on the tracker and you'll get to the customers accurately," Welvrana answered as she smiled brightly at her new understudy. "Just make sure not to eat this stuff and I'll get a hot meal for you going in two hours."

"Wait this is all I have to deliver?" Sonic asked in disbelief at the fact that he was expecting more orders but Welvrana only giggled at his statement.

"No silly this is just all the orders from the north section of town," Welvrana commented, "I separated all of your trips back so that you won't have to go to the same place twice."

"Okay I'll see you in a few then," Sonic reluctantly answered as he struggled to get a good grip on all of the food containers and grab the scanner at the same time. He could tell this was going to be one long night.
