Heys, here's the next Chapter.
Chapter 1 (five years later)
Alex sighed as she sealed another box with duck tape. Her room now was stacked with boxes and bags, as her mother had got a new job and they had to move out of the little suburb so that she would be closer to it in the city. Alex had put up a lot of fighting as she had made many friends at the local high school now and she didn't want to leave. But the day of moving had come faster than expected, and it just so happened to be tomorrow. The last thing she had to pack was all the things on her dresser. She had already wrapped the dragon figurine in bubble wrap so she grabbed a box and gently set it in. She began to pile books, book marks, drawings, DS games, pens, pencils and other assorted items into the box before opening the cello taped bottom drawer of the dresser. She had a fair idea what was in that. She peeled back the cello tape and opened it up. There in the drawer lay the brown papered box that her mother had given to her when she was 10. She took it out and sat it on the dresser top then pulled her chair over and opened it once again. The Sonic figurine still looked the same as it had, no dust, no paint chipped with age. She was bewildered. Alex thought back to the night she had slept with it in her hand, wondering why that odd dream had happened, even though, every night since then nothing happened. Her conclusion, sleep with it in her hand tonight and see what would happen.
'Alex, you done packing?' her mum called downstairs.
Alex fumbled with the figurine in shock due to the sudden noise in the silence of her room. She placed it on her dresser then left calling back that she had.
...that night...
Alex clambered into bed and looked around her room. It was the last night she'd be here before she left. Her eyes glanced at her dresser for a second, then she looked back. Sighing she got up and grabbed the figurine taking it with her across the room back to her bed, before switching off the lights and lying down.
'Let's see what happens then shall we,' she muttered drifting off to sleep.
The figure in her hand glowed slightly, as did her body. Within seconds the glowing stopped. Alex had disappeared from her bed, but the figurine was still there glowing brightly on the pillow where her hand was.
...moments later...
Alex stood and looked around. The place where she was, was exactly the same place where she had been 5 years ago, although the area was no longer over grown and seemed to have some definition between trees and shrubbery. She walked forward and noticed a puddle of water to her right. Curiosity took over and she headed over to find exactly the same reflection as before as well. A white anthropomorphic hedgehog with purple tinges, wearing her pyjamas. She took a look at herself properly without looking in the puddle of water and touched her ears, face and white and purple streaked hair. (She had hair instead of quills). She pinched herself in the hope of waking herself up but she flinched and rubbed her arm instead. Her left ear twitched a few times and she muttered for it to quit it, but it didn't. Instead it began swivelling in order to get a fix on where the noise was actually coming from. Sighing Alex looked to her left. There wasn't anything through the trees that she could. She shrugged her shoulders then looked back towards the tree that she had been lying up against. She knew she was on Mobius. She had some Sonic the hedgehog games for her DS, granted she never actually finished them, and being an anthropomorphic hedgehog seemed to confirm it. Her right ear twitched this time, and now she could hear something. It was a faint rustling of the leaves in the distance. She turned, raised an eyebrow and took a step forward before stopping herself. Alex stood stock still for a second. She was on a different planet and suddenly decided that it was safe to go deeper into a dark forest without knowing what's in there was a smart plan. She growled at herself for her next move and shut her eyes. Biting the bullet, she stormed off in the direction where she had heard the rustling. She pushed through shrubs and under branches finally reaching a trail. She sighed hoping that she would find someone there, but no one was about. She stood for a while thinking ...before...
'Look Out!'
Alex's eyes widened, 'You have got to be ...'
The words were barely out of her mouth before she was hit on the right side getting sent to the ground. She sat up, her white hair covering her face. She blew it out of her eyes and glared at the blue hedgehog that had run into her for the second time.
'I am so sor...have we met?' Sonic asked sticking out a hand to help her up.
'Yea we have actually, we met in the exact same way, a few yards in that direction, five years ago,' Alex replied crossing her arms.
Sonic looked at her as she sat, arms folded, 'If I had, sorry about that,' he said scratching behind his ear as he thought.
Alex sighed and stood before walking off back towards the clearing where she had came from.
'Hey wait up, I never caught your name,' Sonic said matching her pace behind her easily.
'It's Alex,' Alex replied pushing a branch out of her way, not holding it for the hedgehog behind her, nearly whacking him on the forehead. Sonic dodged around it.
When they entered the clearing Alex walked over to the tree. She touched it, walked around it, and even sat down lying her back up against it, wondering which way would work so she could get back to her world.
'What are you doing?' Sonic asked raising an eyebrow.
'Trying to get back home,' Alex muttered.
'In a tree?' Sonic said laughing a bit before coughing to hide it as Alex glared at him.
'No, not in a tree, although I think it may have something to do with the little figurine that I was holding before I went to bed,' Alex replied looking up to the branches.
'You sure you're ok? Maybe you hit your head...' Sonic trailed off as Alex was now in front of him.
'If I had hit my head, I'd still be on the ground groaning in pain, with a hand here...' Alex placed a hand on the right side of her head,' ...Ow.'
'Maybe I should have you checked over just incase,' Sonic said scooping her up into his arms.
Alex began fidgeting in his grip and he set her back on the ground.
'What the hell...?' Alex asked taking a few steps back then holding her head again. The pain had suddenly appeared that she hadn't noticed before, 'maybe I should keep my mind on other things, like getting home,' she thought.
'Well if you can run as fast as I can keep up, if not, then I'm carrying you to my friends house. He's rather good with first aid,' Sonic replied and zipped off past her.
Alex stood watching a blue streak disappear through the trees while still holding her head. The blue streak returned, and Sonic stood smirking.
'Looks like I'm carrying you then,' Sonic said knocking the legs from under her.
'Grrrrrreeeeeat,' Alex replied sarcastically.
