Chapter 12: The Cemetery
Amy's Bedroom next morning
The next morning, Amy woke up right as the sun rose over the horizon. She looked to her right, smiling to see her love, Sonic, still asleep in the chair next to her. Getting out of bed she went and put on a long, flowing black dress, with a long black cape to go over it. On the table next to her bed was a vase with 5 roses tied together in a black ribbon. Amy grabbed them from out of the vase and headed for the door, but then she saw Sonic again, and she couldn't resist. Amy quickly and quietly kissed Sonic's forehead without waking him up, and then left the room, headed for her carriage.
As she walked out of the Opera House's entrance, she saw her carriage driver standing around in the falling snow, looking for someone who needs to go somewhere. As Amy approached him he smiled, and bowed to her.
"Good morning Miss Rose! Where would you like to go?" he asked excitedly.
"Could you please take me to the cemetery?" Amy asked in a quiet, and somewhat sad voice.
The carriage driver gave her a concerned look and replied, "Sure thing!"
"Thank you. I'll go grab my jacket, and I'll be right back. "Amy smiled running back towards the Opera House.
While Amy was still inside, the Phantom decided to execute his plan. He had hidden behind the carriage as Amy told the carriage driver where to take her, so he knew where she was going. When he felt the time was right, he pulled out his chaos emerald, and ran up to the carriage driver, yelling "Chaos Spear!"
The driver instantly froze, giving Shadow the chance to hide him before Amy came back. Quickly, he took a black scarf and wrapped it around his face, so that Amy would not recognize him. The Phantom jumped on the carriage, and grabbed the ropes to guide the horses.
A few seconds later, Amy walked out, and got into the back of the carriage, not even noticing that the carriage driver had changed. He whipped the horses, and they were off, headed towards the cemetery.
Just as they were leaving, Sonic woke up, stretching and rubbing his eyes. "Good morning Ames!" he said semi-unconsciously. When he got no response, his eyes widened, as he looked over to an empty bed. "Oh crap! AMY!" He looked out the window to see a black hedgehog driving Amy in a carriage. Sonic dashed out to the carriage parking and found Amy's carriage driver still there.
"Where did he take her?" Sonic forcefully asked the carriage driver.
"The cemetery, you'd better hurry! Miss Rose is in danger!" he informed him worriedly.
Before saying anything else, Sonic was sprinting at supersonic speed toward the old cemetery, hoping Amy was ok.
Soon, the carriage approached the cemetery entrance, and Amy carefully stepped out, clutching the bouquet with both hands. Slowly, she walked through the freshly fallen snow, making her way to her father's grave which was located in the back of the cemetery, so it was quite a walk.
This gave the Phantom plenty of time to complete his plan. He took the carriage and drove it around towards the back of the cemetery, so that he could hide behind her father's grave, and wait for her to get there so he could make his next move.
As Amy walked through the gloomy cemetery, the only thing on her mind was her dead father, and so she began to mindlessly sing:
You were once my one companion
You were all that mattered
You were once a friend and father
Then my world was shattered
Wishing you were somehow here again
Wishing you were somehow near
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed
Somehow you would be here
Wishing I could hear your voice again
Knowing that I never would
Dreaming of you helped me to do
All that you dreamed I could
Passing bells and sculpted angels, cold and monumental
Seem for you the wrong companion, you were warm and gentle
Too many years
Fighting back tears
Why can't the curse just die!
Wishing you were here again
Knowing we must say goodbye
Try to forgive
Teach me to live
Give me the strength to try!
No more memories
No more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years
Help me say goodbye
Help me say goodbye!
By the end of the song, she was standing in front of her father's grave. Engulfed in sadness, she fell to the ground and began to cry. Suddenly, she heard and angelic voice coming from behind the grave that sang:
Wandering child,
So lost, so helpless
Yearning for my guidance
Confused, Amy looked around to find no one there, but she sang back:
Angel or father?
Friend or phantom?
Who is it there, singing?
Voice:
Have you forgotten your angel?
Amy:
Angel, oh, speak
What endless longings
Echo in this whisper!
Voice:
Too long you've wandered in winter
Far from my fathering gaze...
Amy:
Wildly, my mind beats against you…
Voice:
You resist…
Both:
Yet your/the soul obeys...
Angel of Music,
You/I denied me/you!
Turning from true beauty!
Angel of Music!
Do not shun me/my protector!
Come to your/me strange Angel…
Voice:
I am your Angel of Music…
Come to me Angel of Music…
Suddenly, Sonic came dashing around the corner of the cemetery screaming, "AMY NO! WAIT!" He was wearing a puffy white shirt, with a pair of black pants with sword hanging from the back and black boots.
"Sonic!" Amy exclaimed, surprised to see him, and curious to know how he knew where she was. Sonic put his hand on her shoulder as he pulled out his sword.
"Amy! Whatever you believe, this man – this thing – is not your father!" Just then, the Phantom jumped out from behind her father's grave, holding a long sword, which he was ready to swing at Sonic.
Sonic dodged his attack and swung his sword back, but missed when the Phantom hid behind a tombstone. Shadow quickly took a swing at Sonic, but soon realized that he was hitting nothing but air. Sonic was quickly behind him, and swung at the Phantom's neck, but he ducked just in time for Sonic to miss.
Amy just stood there, jaw dropped, watching the two hedgehog's battle it out for her love. This battle started so fast that it was unreal.
Sonic took a swing at Shadow, but missed, getting his sword stuck in a tombstone. The Phantom took this opportunity to stab Sonic's chest. He swung, but Sonic jumped out of the way, hiding behind a tombstone. Shadow looked around, but saw nobody but Amy, until he heard footsteps behind him, so he jumped away, just as Sonic's sword went past his head. The Phantom took a swing and sliced Sonic's arm open, causing blood to pour out of his shirt as he screamed in agony.
In anger, Sonic took a fast swing at Shadow, but Shadow dodged it. During Shadow's quick movement out of the way, he tripped over a tombstone, causing him to fall down into the snow, on his back, dropping his blade. Sonic quickly pinned him down, and put his sword at the Phantom's neck.
"No Sonic! Please don't kill him!" Amy cried in terror. Sonic rolled his eyes, but followed her request, taking the sword away from his neck, walking towards Amy. He kissed her lightly on the forehead, and then picked her up in a bridal style and zipped out of the cemetery.
Breathing heavily, the Phantom got up and brushed himself off. No longer did he have tears in his eyes for Amy; he had anger. "Now there shall be war upon you both!" he cried, holding his sword and chaos emerald high in the air.
