Scene 5: Accident on the streets

Sonic continued to run away from the restaurant, trying to get away from Shadi. He was still pretty mad about how things turned out, and not too pleased with how Shadi always tries to make him lose his temper.

Sonic kept running, but during the time, he pretty much ran into a bad neighborhood. Sonic immediately noticed that something was different about the place. Sonic crept around and observed

"I think I might have ran too far!" he said observing the place, and shivered a bit. Suddenly, Sonic's ears perked up as he heard some crying. Sonic looked around again, and saw some older hedgehogs gaining in on a younger hedgehog.

"No!" cried the young hedgehog. "Stay away from me! Please!" he pleaded. "I told you already. That was all we have. I gave you all the money I have." He cried.

"We're not done with you yet!" sneered one of the older hedgehogs. "Give us the money punk!" he shouted as he grabbed the younger hedgehog's shirt, preparing to slam his fist in the hedgehog's face.

Sonic saw what was going on, and lowered his eyes a bit. He huffed up, and started walking towards them.

"Leave him alone!" Sonic ordered as he pointed to the other hedgehogs. "Why don't you pick on someone your own size?" he said as he waited for the group to let go of the younger hedgehog.

The older hedgehog smiled and dropped the kid. He called the other hedgehogs and pointed to Sonic.

"Much obliged!" said the hedgehog as he made a signal to the other hedgehogs to charge at Sonic.

Sonic immediately jumped and dodged the hedgehogs. Then after he landed, he turned back and emitted a Sonic Wind at the hedgehogs. The attack struck the hedgehogs directly and made them fall backwards. Sonic then turned back to the leader of their group.

"It's not nice to mug little hedgehogs who can't defend themselves!" he shouted, and then he started charging up at the older hedgehog. "Give the kid back his money!" he ordered.

The older hedgehog refused to follow Sonic, so he did nothing. Sonic, however, grabbed the hedgehog and took back the money that he stole. "Now that that's done, never show your face to me again!" demanded Sonic as he took out a sludge hammer, and sent the hedgehog flying into the sky for a few seconds, and then the hedgehog landed on the roof of a building.

A few seconds after Sonic used the sludge hammer, he was slightly shocked that he actually sent them flying. Nonetheless, Sonic decided to forget about it. Sonic gave the money back to the younger hedgehog, and walked out of the street again.

"Why does today feel so strange?" Sonic asked himself as he rubbed his head. While doing so, he didn't notice that he walked right into the street, almost getting hit by a car. He flinched as he say the car pass him, and fell backwards in the bike lane.

Just at the moment, a bicyclist past by, and bumped into Sonic. The Bicyclist then hit his head onto a pole; it would have been more damage though, if he weren't wearing a helmet. Sonic screamed and ran towards the bicyclist trying to help him up.

"Oh my God!" shouted Sonic "I am SO sorry!" he cried as he grabbed the bicyclist's hand and raised him up. After doing so, Sonic heard some more things going on.

He looked forward to see more robbers mugging people. Sonic glared and ran towards them. When Sonic got closer though, he saw that the muggers had guns. Seeing that made him sweat a bit, and it caused his pupils to shrink a little. He shook his head a bit afterwards and glared at them again. He took a deep breath and walked towards them.

"Hey!" he shouted. "What are you doing in the public just robbing people?" he asked.

The robbers turned around and saw Sonic. They pointed their guns at Sonic, having a finger ready to pull the trigger.

Sonic gulped and had his eyes focused on the guns once more. But he didn't panic. The triggers were pulled, and bullets were heading towards Sonic's way. Sonic successfully dodged them all by shifting around the place. After so, Sonic grabbed a bullet without hurting himself, and aimed it back at the robber's guns. Sonic threw it towards the gun, causing the robbers to drop it on the ground.

When the robbers didn't have their guns anymore, they were pretty much vulnerable. They saw Sonic running towards them again.

"Give back what you stole!" he demanded as he ran towards them.

The robber's threw their arms in the air and grabbed a fruit by a fruit stand right next to them.

"Honestly!" said one of the robbers. "The only thing we stole were these fruits!" they said. But Sonic could tell they were lying.

"Next to this Jewelry Store?" asked Sonic "Why not some other fruit stand?" he asked as he grabbed their shirts and glared at them. "I know you stole some jewelry, now give it back to them!" Sonic demanded once more as he hardened up the grip, and once again, he felt that he might have been a bit rough, but at the moment, he didn't really care about it.

The robbers finally agreed to give Sonic back what they stole, so they handed them two bags of stolen stuff and ran off. Sonic then looked back at the people from the jewelry store and walked towards them to return their items.

As he was walking towards them, Sonic suddenly tripped, banging his head on the ground. Right after that, there was a loud 'BANG!' sound, and then the sound of wood snapping in half. Sonic moaned a bit and looked behind him to see what had happened. He saw what had tripped him; it was the gun that the robber's had dropped, and his foot had triggered the gun to go off. He then remembered there was a fruit stand next to the jewelry store. He saw that all the fruits have tumbled out of their place. Apples, oranges, watermelon and all sorts of stuff started rolling onto the streets.

"Shit!" Sonic whispered to himself.

After a while, some cars passed by, driving over the fruits. Some cars toppled over while other's damage was worse than that. Sonic screamed again, shielding his eyes, not wanting to see the mistake he made. He then heard another person crying for help.

"Help! Please!" cried a mother's voice. Sonic looked at her to see her baby's trolley rolling down some stairs as she was chasing it, but she just couldn't catch up to her baby. It was also about to roll into the streets. Sonic was in shock, but he immediately took action.

Just as the baby carriage rolled into the streets, Sonic ran towards it, and took the baby out of the carriage. Sonic smiled and looked at the mother.

"I did it!" he shouted in relief. "I saved the baby without messing up or getting someone else hurt!" he said. That thought, however, only lasted for a few seconds.

Sonic was still on the road, and yet again, another car almost hit Sonic. The car immediately turned, but bumped into some Bicyclists and they all slammed into a pole. Sonic looked and saw that he had made a mistake once again while trying to help out some people. Sonic squinted, and he covered the baby's ears.

"Fuck!" he shouted. He then looked at the mother and walked back to her. "Your baby?" he asked as he handed it to her and then ran out of the city immediately, groaning, and screaming

"This day sucks!" he shouted harshly while he covered his ears while running in high speeds.
