Chapter 7-

Again I was at a loss, I had no plan to go on to find this guy and I was stuck. I probably should have thought this thing through thoroughly... I sighed as I took a look at my surroundings. I was scanning the area when a huge 'boom' went off in the distance. Rouge and Knuckles must be here, so there's no reason to look at this place. Maybe I should...

The crashing trees seemed to have sped up and coming right towards me. I hopped off a tree branch waiting and expecting Knuckles to be here any minute. Then I caught a quick glimpse of... pink?

"SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG?!" I heard a familiar female voice bellow out

I slowly grew scared of the thought that Amy came after me. Though it would be no surprise since she used to- or still does but I don't know- chase after Sonic for hours on end. Wait... her voice earlier... that wasn't a friendly voice...

The pink hedgehog soon found her way to me and stood before me with her piko piko hammer out. She glared at me with rage in her eyes which almost made me slightly scared of her. Slightly.

"HOW DARE YOU LEAVE ME BEHIND! YOU THINK I WOULDN'T HAVE FOUND YOU?!" Rose ranted as she waved her arms frantically around. She kind of looked... cute.

"AND THEN I HAD TO TRACK YOU AND DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG THAT TAKES? NO I THINK NOT, I HAVE DONE IT FOR YEARS AND STILL HAVEN'T PERFECTED IT! AND HOW YOU USE CHAOS CONTROL TO MOVE AROUND?! IT TAKES TIME-" Amy continued ranting on and on, it seems she won't be finished soon...

I started trying to come up with ideas for shutting her up, do I slap sense into her?... No that'd probably anger her more. Interrupt her? I pictured her just ranting on about interruptions. Chaos control out? No that'd just prolong the rant...

"I MEAN I MUST BE THE BEST TRACKER TO FIND YOU SINCE YOU JUST FREAKING TELEPORT WHEREVER THE HELL YOU WANT, AND I THOUGHT SONIC WAS TOUGH TO TRACK BUT YOU-" She stopped mid sentence as I kissed her

It was short but it got her quiet. I stared at her as she looked at me confused and slightly red.

"Are you finished Rose?" I asked as she turned quickly away from me. I just thought that was the fastest way of making her quiet, was that too much though? I studied her as she bent down and placed her head between her knees.

"Um... Amy?.." I asked slowly, hoping she doesn't get pissed off because of my actions. She continued to slump down into her ball as I awkwardly poked her with a stick. If she does explode she'll only rip the stick giving me time to chaos control out of here.

"Shadow..." She says suddenly as I start regretting my decision

"Rose?..." I reply as she slowly gets up and faces me. She runs up to me and surprisingly embraces me in a hug, she's almost in tears. 'Oh god, what have I done? I told myself not to get into these situations...'

"I was so concerned, I thought you'd actually find him..." She cried out to me as I looked at her confused. I don't want to ask but this is vital to find out who the person is behind the rainstorms.

I rethink it though since I see how unstable Amy is at the moment, I don't want to reopen closed wounds. I take out my emerald and chaos control us back to my house, Amy still bawling out on me. I pick her up so I can sit on the couch with her in my lap, whatever happened to her in the past must have really traumatized her.

She holds me for a while until she finally is done crying, she just stares at me in silence as I hold her tightly in my lap. I don't know if this is what you do in a situation like this but I just comforted her in silence. She soon was calm enough to stop crying and we just sat together doing absolutely nothing. She reluctantly got up and straightened her messy hair.

"T-thanks for comforting me Shadow..." She starts as she heads up the stairs, "I-I'll just head to bed now, night!"

The pink hedgehog swiftly ran up the stairs leaving me to recap what happened today. Though I could use a sandwich after today's events. One moment you're fighting people the next an angry pink hedgehog with a hammer tracks you down then she bawls her eyes out. I sigh at how tiring this day seemed as I made a sandwich. It seems like the person controlling the weather can control people's lives making it a hurricane.

I look out the window and see another storm coming. I don't want to do this but eventually if all else fails, I'll have to ask Amy about this mysterious person. I take a bite out of my sandwich and go back to the couch to watch anime.

Bright rays shine in my face the next morning. "Ugh..." I groan as I sit up slowly and find a pink hedgehog watching me as I sit up. She beams a smile at me and runs off somewhere. I get up and realized I had changed before I slept last night, I wore only black shorts since I was so tired last night after I bathed.

I stretched and headed for the kitchen to find breakfast already ready for me. I take a seat next to Amy who apparently set our plates beside one another. She smiles and says, "Morning sleepy head."

Taking a look at my plate it had burgers on it. Was it lunch time already? I must have slept through breakfast, that's what I get for watching anime throughout the night. How long did Amy stare at me sleep though?

She already started eating as I sluggishly started as well. Why was she so peppy? Did she forget the short kiss we exchanged? OH GOD DID SHE POISON MY FOOD? I look pale for a second as Amy stares at me curiously.

"What's wrong Shadow?" Amy asks concerned as I still look quite pale

"I-I'm not that hungry right now..." I say slowly heading back to the couch. Amy followed me as I turned on the TV to continue watching anime. She sat with me on the couch as I pulled up the show I was watching last night. In the middle of an episode she'd scoot closer to me every so often, making me a little concerned at her antsy behavior. Eventually she wrapped my arms around her as I thought how the hell did watching anime come all the way to me holding her?

I didn't want to move, also I couldn't since I was paralyzed by confusion. I've never had this happen either and it's as bad as having to deal with people and their emotions. What is she doing? I just wanted to watch my anime and it all ended up with me hold Rose.

I fought a mental battle, being both anxious and nervous about this situation. Eventually she ended up in my lap while I was deathly confused. Why is this happening to me? What does this all mean? I was holding her around the waist while she sat on my lap leaned up against my chest while I rested my head on her shoulder. How does this even happen? We were just feet apart earlier...

I continued to just sit silently in a mental battle of what to do while Rose sat relaxed in my arms...

Well, I seemed to have gone all over the place with my stories recently... Well I guess whatever.

Well, I guess I'll see ya round?
