Sorry this took so long... I finally did Amy :D I started this off thinking "Oh, it'll be all about her obsessing over finding Sonic and wanting him to come save her" Yeah, I don't really like Amy -.-' But, hers was the easiest to write... It just came and flowed. I didn't get stuck. It just worked. I've gained a bit more respect for Amy. This chapter wasn't what I thought it would be, and I'm glad. So please, enjoy.
Amy had never really liked adventures.
It was a strange thing to think, and an even stranger time to think it. Shoving her way through the thick foliage, she yelped as a branch swung back and hit her. Grumbling angrily to herself, she whipped out her Piko Piko Hammer and swung it at the offending plant. The thin, springy branch flew back up, swatting her across the face again.
"Stupid nature..." She grumbled, rubbing her nose as her weapon vanished back into Hammer Space. Brushing the leaves off of her dress and plucking a few thorns out of her socks, she took a moment to look around. Trees, leaves, no sign of sky or civilization... Or Sonic. With an angry sigh, the pink hedgehog crossed her arms and sank to the ground, flopping back on the cool moss and staring at the trees. She could feel tears of frustration forming in her eyes, but she did her best to keep them down.
What would Sonic say if he saw you like this, sitting alone in the woods crying? she thought bitterly. There was no way he'd want to go out with her then. He already thought she was too young for him, and if she started acting like a baby, any shot she had would fly right out the window.
Thinking about Sonic made the tears push harder, and she closed her eyes. Usually thinking about the guy she loved distracted her from her problems and made them more bearable. She could sit back and daydream about her hero coming to rescue her. Now, though, thoughts like this depressed her. Because she didn't know where Sonic was. Or where she was, for that matter. And no matter how hard she wished or how fantastic her daydreams became, she knew that this time, the blue blur wasn't going to swoop in out of nowhere and whisk her away to safety. This time, Amy was on her own.
The sight of a giant boulder getting closer and closer burst into her mind, followed by chunks of rock flying, and the blinding flash that had followed the crash. Eyes springing open, the young hedgehog shook it off, sitting up. Stomach rumbling, the lump of misery in her throat grew a bit. She hadn't gotten much sleep last night, but it'd been too dark to keep moving. She hadn't eaten anything since she'd woken up here yesterday -alone.
Where was Tails, she wondered? He was just a little kid. Was he okay? Was he here? And Knuckles, what about him? The echidna had swooped in to save them when Sonic hadn't been able to, but now he was nowhere to be seen either. And Cream, what had become of the poor girl? Had Sonic saved her? Was she okay? Was he okay?
Amy couldn't stand it, these endless questions that never seemed to reach an answer. She didn't know if they were alright, if they were here or if she was alone. She didn't even know where here was! Tears of anger, frustration and fear sprung from her eyes and rolled down her muzzle. She didn't know how she'd gotten here, from the rocky grounds outside Eggman's base to the middle of some forest. No matter how far she walked, she never seemed to get any closer to anything. Where was she heading? Who would be there? How the heck had she ended up here? The answer was always the same: She didn't know.
Struggling not to sob, she swallowed the lump in her throat, reaching a gloved hand to her face to wipe the tears away.
"No use in crying..." She mumbled to herself, crawling to her feet. "You can't always rely on Sonic to save you, you know..." But she wanted to. She wanted him to burst in with the others, to see their faces and know that they were okay. She wanted to wrap her arms around Sonic and hear him tell her that it was okay, that she was safe now, and that he would make sure she stayed that way. There wasn't anything she wanted more right now.
Glancing around the leafy wonderland, Amy swallowed again and started pushing forward. Her only destination was home, and home was where Sonic and the others were. Shoving through some brush, she winced as another branch snapped at her face. She really didn't like adventures.
They were never fun when you were alone.
I like Amy a bit more right now. Sonic X is the only place where Sonic actually has feelings for Amy. You can see it in the end credits of the Japanese version XD And if you get the lyrics... Dear God, the Sonic X creators lurrvved SonAmy. I, do not. But hey.
Who should I do next? Cream or Rouge?
