CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

Elise was sitting down, hugging her knees, and looking at the tree blossom. Watching as one by one flower fall from the wind onto the green grass and the water stream. But one flower was blown by the wind and fell right next to her.

Elise looked at the flower and moved her hand and picked it up. She moved her legs to the side and looked down at the flower still in her hands, showing its white petals and some pink linings in the middle. She awed in its beauty.

She stood back up and moved to the stream, bending down and let her gloves touch the water and let go of the flower and watched it flow, out of her sight. Sitting up straight, she thinks in her mind about what had happened back at her city.

Her people were looking at her with shocked faces and her hedgehog friends were also shocked, but worse of all Sonic looking shocked and scared.

She remembered how it went, from stepping away from her after she turned into a hedgehog, to not looking at her after she defeated Solaris.

Elise was so caught up, she didn't see Sonic behind her. "Elise..." Sonic voice came in.

Elise turned around and saw Sonic standing there, looking shocked and still scared. She closes her eyes and turns back around.

There was a pregnant silence, until Elise spoke. "What do you want Sonic?" she said.

Sonic looks down and looks back up. "I think the real question is, why?" Elise looks back to Sonic confused, but she already knew what he meant, but she let Sonic talk and ask the questions. "Why and how did it become this? Why did you want to chose this? And w-why did you wa-want to c-co-come back?" The last question both hurt Elise and Sonic, but it had to be answered.

"I became this because I had no other choice. I chose this because to be with my friends. I came back because I love you too damn much, Sonic!" Elise shouted the last sentence.

Sonic was looking at her what felt like an hour or more, but he came back to his senses. "I love you, too." Sonic looked at her with sad eyes.

"But I can't change back to what I was." Elise saw how Sonic was shaking his head and looked back to her. "I don't care what you've become. What I care is that you're the same Elise." Elise was shocked for a moment but then realized that Sonic didn't care for what she was.

Elise ran into Sonic's arms. Elise angled her head and wrapped her arms around her boyfriend's neck. Sonic smiled in the kiss and never let go, until they can't breathe again.

They eventually had to stop kissing at some point to breathe. They still had their heads together, with eyes their eyes closed. Elise opened her eyes and looked at Sonic.

Sonic still had his eyes closed, after feeling Elise lips on his, it wasn't the same. When she was human, her lips were smooth and soft. But now, they feel fury and ticklish. He didn't want to tell Elise that he wanted her back human, but there wasn't another way to make her human.

After thinking with his thoughts, he reopened his eyes and looked directly at Elise eyes. He saw the same Elise staring at him, and that made him smile.

Elise smiled back to him, but it was a sad smile. "I wish I was human again."

"I wish that too.'" Sonic replied.

Sonic and Elise hugged each other and just stand there for a long time. Letting their tears of joy fall on their shoulders, feeling the tightness around each other.

Until a white light came their way.

Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Silver, Shadow, Jasmine, and Rouge were walking at the village making sure the people were safe and if they remembered anything. They people seemed to not remembered, but they the hedgehogs and the bat, who was the hedgehog that defeated Solaris. None of them answered.

They decided that they needed a break, but Silver decided that he should go around the village to make sure everyone is safe or if they need help. They were ok with that and went to sit somewhere. They found a bench, near the park.

Knuckles, Rouge, and Tails sat on one end and Shadow, Jasmine, Amy sat on the other end. They stayed in silence for some time, but Rouge broke the silence.

"Well, this isn't working out." Rouge looked around the hedgehogs and they still stayed in silence.

"Guys!" Rouge yelled.

They all looked at her and stayed in silence still.

"Ok, we aren't playing the silence game anymore! This is ridiculous! We know that Princess Elise turned into a hedgehog, and she's also hiding something. Jasmine care to explain?" Rouge said.

They all looked at Jasmine, confused and wondering what she has to say.

Jasmine looks at them. "Elise... Well... Well she's a hedgehog...? And she's alive!" Jasmine said excitingly. She looked back at them and they didn't seem convinced, so they give her glares.

She throws her head on the table with a loud bang and mumbles. "Jasmine, you need to speak a little louder." Shadow said.

Jasmine raises her head, with her lips pressed tight together making fishy kissy lips, and giving Shadow her glare, but Shadow wasn't even blinking.

Jasmine gave up and breaks. "Oh my god! Sonic and Elise are dating!"

"WHAT?!" They yelled at the same time.

The bright light ended, then something magical happen.

Sonic opened his eyes, that he didn't know he had them closed and saw Elise human again. He looked up and down at her and saw she had the same blue dress, gloves, shoes, everything. He smiled and awe at her.

Elise was shock. She couldn't believe how this happen but she was speechless. She was also looking up and down at herself and saw the dress and everything on her. She was so caught up, she didn't notice she was in Sonic's arms.

"Ahem." Sonic interrupted her.

Elise looks up to Sonic and finally realizes that her was in his arms. She looks at him and starts laughing. She brought her head down on Sonic's shoulder and laughs.

Sonic feels the vibration of her laughter on his shoulder and looks up at the sky and saw a woman looking at them. He blinks once, twice, maybe more and realizes he isn't hallucinating, he smiles to the woman. "Thank you." He whispers to her.

The woman smiles back, showing her white teeth. "Keep care of my daughter, Sonic The Hedgehog." Her says and then disappears in the sky.

Sonic looks at the sky where she disappeared and then widen his eyes. He just met Elise's mother, or maybe mother-in-law someday. But he only cares for what's in his arms. He looks back to Elise and saw she was staring at him with wide eyes.

"Sonic what did you say?" She asked in a hush and squeaky tight voice. Sonic eyes went wide and then he remembered the words he said.

"Ummm... Nothing...?" Sonic replied. Elise looks back to him, giving him her glare. "No you said, 'I just met Elise's mother, or maybe mother-in-law someday', what does that mean?" Sonic looks at her but he just smiles again, then walks with her in his arms, back to the village.

"Elise one day, or maybe tomorrow? I will ask you to be my beautiful wife." Sonic says.

Elise looks at him and smiles and hugs in tighter. "And my answer will always be yes to you, Sonic The Hedgehog."
