Not alone anymore: chapter 4
Sonic's POV
What was that all about? Was it so strange to see a couple of mobians? What was with this guy? And why was he so familiar. "what was up with that?" Knuckles asked. He was just as confused as we all were. "i don't know." Amy said with a surprised expression plastered on her face. Who could blame her for being surprised? Even i was a bit shocked. "you think he needs help?" Rouge asked and looked a bit concerned. "i don't know, but he seemed pretyt freaked out by just seeing us." I said and kept looking in the direction he went. I had the feeling that i should go after him. "maybe, we should follow him and make sure he's okay." I suggested. Tails nodded, but he agreed to most things i said. "listen, mister hero. that guy obiously has some problems. We should stay out of his way and let him calm down. let's go home before our appetite is ruined." Knuckles said turning around and started his way home. Rouge followed and amy rolled her eyes before she did. I was still looking in the direction his went. I really felt like there was something wrong. "sonic, we should go." Tails said and quickly followed the others when i did to. I noticed rouge looking back over her shoulder in concern aswell. Was she feeling the same way? I hope she did. then maybe i could convince her to come along and search for him.
Shadow's POV
I slammed the door shut behind me and locked it to assure my safety. I leaned against the door with my back and sighed. I slid with my back, still against the door, on the ground. I was happy to know that i was back in my safe haven. I got up from the floor and walked upstairs.
I arrived in my room and laid down on my bed. I looked at my side to look at something on the nightstand. "hey sonic. i'm home again." I said to the photograph of sonic that was placed on the nighstand. I had a habit to talk to it. That habit helped me a little in my mourning process. It took time to get used to sonic not answering anymore. It was hard, but i got through it a little. The photograph reminded me of what had occured earlier today. How was it possible? Did they just coincidently look like them? is someone really playing with my mind? Did they...come...back?
I looked through the window and noticed that it was night. Time passed by really quick. It had gotten really late. I was about to fall asleep. So i didn't think anymore about issue and decided to go to sleep afterall. I got up from my bed and got dressed into my pj's. I then laid back down on my bed. I took sonic's photograph and held it against my chest. "good night, sonikku." I said and fell asleep.
Sonic's POV
me, amy and knuckles were watching tv in the livingroom. Or rather, knuckles and amy were watching tv. I was to deep in thought to watch tv. I couldn't stop thinking about that black hedgehog. Why did he bother me so much? Why did he out of all poeple? I've never seen him before. But he was so familiar at the same time. Why was that? "is there something wrong, sonic?" tails asked and went to sit down next to me. "why are you here? you should be in bed." I said and faced him. "i couldn't sleep." He said and smiled. I smiled back and looked at the tv again. "so, what's worng? is that hedgehog bothering you?" He asked making me look at him again. "yeah, a bit. he seems...so..." I said but paused. "so familiar? i had the same feeling." Tails said making me surprised. That hedgehog was familiar to him to? "to be honest, he felt familiar to me aswell." Amy said in concern. "yeah, same here." Knuckles said and turned off the tv. Rouge, who had joined us in the room aswell, nodded in agreement. "the question is how and why." Rouge said. We were all thinking about a possible explanation, but none of us came up with something. We had decided to go to sleep and think this over. There had to be a possible explanation for this.
