Pretty Girl
Chapter 3 - Hurt
If I just died right now. I believe it. But why so much pain. I could feel where my head got hit and it feels like I broke my hand. Then I started to hear whispers round me. I woke up remembering nothing… Just like I did when I was little after dad died… Everything round me was white. I'm guessing that this is heaven… But it didn't feel like heaven. The bed I'm laying on was hard as a rock and just realizing that there was a door at the end of the place. It wasn't there before when I looked round the room…
I got up and moved to the door. I looked out the door to find my mom (She looks little bit younger right here) and a blue cat person in a white jacket. My heart started to race.
"Mrs. Rose, your daughter is safe. But it looks like she lost bit of her memory. Sadly for your husband…" The person kept on talking as my mom cried. I remember this day. This all happen when I was only 5 years old. I can't be here for this day again. Not again. I ran out of the room and down the hallway. Everyone started to stare at me. My heart was becoming fared again. I could everyone again, the same words and replies I always get from everyone…
"Poor girl," Someone would start off saying.
"Now she can never grow up with a dad…" Other person.
"I bet it was her fault," Person believes I did it. Not true.
"Why would you say that?" Different person trying to understand.
"She was the last one with him." Just because I was with him…
"It's her fault that's his not here." …doesn't mean I did it.
"How could a 5 year old girl can do so much." I didn't do it.
"I'm not amazed that she did it." SOMEONE ELSE DID!
"Remember, he use to called her pretty girl?" SHUT UP!
"So much for a pretty girl…" DON'T CALL ME THAT!
Pretty girl.
"SHUT UP AND LEAVE ME ALONE!" I yelled. Just because I was the last one to talk to him doesn't mean it's my fault.
"Amy," a voice said. To see my mom at the door, worrying and frighten. I realize I was just in my bedroom and yelling at my walls.
"Mom…" I tried saying mommy but I couldn't say the whole word. Mom didn't say anything more but just left the bedroom -my room- and left me alone to cry. I don't know how long I stayed but a yellow hedgehog with long hair, and golden tips at the end of her hair came inside the room. She stand beside me. I looked up to her and said, "Are you going to look down on me too."
She smiled like she was waiting for me to say that.
She replied, "No dear. Do you know who I am?"
"No."
"I'm your Aunt. Aunt Helen, I'm your mommy's sister."
"Really?" I didn't know my mom had a sister...
"Yes."
"Aunt Helen."
"Yes?" She asked.
"Is it true that it's my fault that Daddy's gone. I don't remember what happen? I don't even remember my own dad. What did I do wrong? After everyone said about me… Aunt Helen, tell me that their words are lies about me… That it's not my fault," I asked. She smiled and said, "Only you can decide if it's a lie or real. You have a power to tell if it is or not, my dear niece."
"How do you know that?"
"Trust me. I know," She said as she got up and held out her hand to me, "Come with me, Amy, I'm taking you home with me."
"What about mom?"
"She's going to be fine. She just needs sometime to find herself."
"Find herself?"
"Yes, now come long Amy, your room is ready for you back at my place!" She said sounding so happy. For the first time I was too.
The room was painted white and had some picture of my family, it also had a twin size bed, and one bookshelf full of books. I loved the room. I danced round my new room until Aunt Helen came back. "Like the room?" She asked.
"I love it!" I said back to her. She smiled again. I looked round the room to see a picture of a red hedgehog hugging mom. "Who's that?" I asked.
"That's your father," she replied. I kept staring at that picture. Daddy… I started to cry. Helen picked me up and put me on my new bed. She was about to pull way when I said,
"Aunt Helen I wish I could have daddy back. It feels like the only way I could see now him was in my dreams. Sometimes I think if I could make a world of my own, Dad wouldn't be dead, and there wouldn't be time so he could forever lived."
"A life without time?" She said.
"Yeah! You and mom could stay with us and never have to change." Helen started to laugh.
"You remind me of a girl. A girl that lived a day dream." She said.
"A day dream?"
"Yes, let's see if I still have that book." She left me and walked over to the bookshelf.
"Book? Eww I hate books…" I said as I made a yuck face.
"Most kids your age hates books cause you don't know how to read yet." She said laughing as she pulled out a big book.
"Hate reading too." I said, crossing my arms.
"Well your only 5 years old. I believe this is a good time to learn." She came back over to me with the big book and gave it to me.
"Al-son Won. Er. What?" I asked.
"Alice in Wonderland, my dear. The main person is a little girl that follows a white rabbit down a hole to wonderland."
"It sounds weird," I said and trying to see how Aunt Helen thought of what I said remind her about this book.
"Yes, but it's a very good book, see it even has pictures." She opened the book that shown a picture of a little girl with a cat.
"Wow, that cat looks funny," I said. Aunt Helen couldn't help but laugh at what I said.
"I guess he is."
"What's his name?" I asked.
"Cheshire Cat"
"Why Cheshire?" I asked once more but this time I looked up to her.
"Maybe you should ask him," She said as she laughed. When I turn back to the book, the once white paper with a picture was now black… I looked up from the to see everything round me was turning black. I closed my eyes hoping everything will stop. It felt like time when by until I felt something right on top of me. I decide to open my eyes, and come to find a pair of blue eyes in front of me.
"Hello Cutie," It said.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I yelled as I closed my eyes and pushed it way from me.
"Alice calm down," It said. Again with the Alice… I stopped yelling and looked at it. This time I know I'm not dreaming anymore. But standing far away from me was a green hedgehog with wild hair. It was wearing a opened black shirt with a blue tie. The hedgehog smiled at me. I mitt he was very cute, "This isn't the first time I did this to you. Haha!" The green hedgehog said laughing.
"I'm not Alice!" I yelled back at him as I tried to get off the wooden bed. I felt little pain in my right hand.
"I can tell, she's a lot more calmer then you ever be!"
"Idiot! Where the hell am I?" I asked as I looked round the room. The walls and furniture looks like it was made of wood. I bet a dollar I'm inside a tree.
"You should be a lot nicer this idiot," He said.
"Why should I!?" I yelled.
"You could have died and also for the record you fell right on top of me." He said.
"Oh my Gosh! Are you ok?" I asked, worried about him. He just laughed.
"Was! But I'm alright, just please no yelling. I already get that from my sister…"
"Uhh sorry… Where am I?" I asked again.
"Black Forest," He repiled. I never heard of a place called Black Forest... well I have but it was a food place.
"Oh… Who are you?" I asked.
"You ask to much Miss."
"Sorry..." I kept quiet as I watched him walking round the room trying to look for something. After sometime he looked at me.
"I'm, Manic the Cheshirsteeler," he said.
"Oh like Cheshire Cat?" I said wondering.
"What? Do I look like a cat?" I wanted to laugh but it would be mean of me.
"No… More like a hedgehog." I said.
"Good… What's your name?" Cheshirsteeler asked me.
"Mine? It's Amy. Amy Rose," I replied.
"Weird name but Ok Amy Amy Rose," He said wrongly.
"Just one Amy. Not two."
"Oh! Ok Amy," Cheshirsteeler said. His eyes looked up and down my body. I was feard what idea he had in his mind. But he only said, "your not from this world."
"What do you mean?" I asked trying to understand what he meaned.
"Just by looking at you. Your from a different world." He said as he pointed to my outfit.
"I see. What world am I on?"
"Hard to say cause this place isn't the right time to talk about it," Cheshirsteeler said as he moved way from me. I bet he just didn't want to tell me.
"Oh…" He looked back at me but this time his face when from 'who's this' to 'oh I get it'.
"If you want I could take you back home if you wish." He said.
"Really that would be great!" I said sounding very happy.
"Ok first thing is I need to know who's your husband so I could take you to him?" What?
"I'm single."
"Oh my bad… then who's your master, slave." WHAT!?
"SLAVE!" I yelled. Is this guy for real?
"Yeah, who do you belong to?" He asked.
"I belong to no one."
"Really?" He asked.
"Yes." I feel like I should just slap him for calling me a slave.
"That's weird, then why do you have that thing round your nick?" Nick?
"What do you mean?" I jumped right off the bed and moved to the mirror that was near the door. I could see some cuts. My right sleeve was almost coming off. Tell you the truth I looked great. I couldn't see anything wrong with me. Until I saw it. A golden thing that could have been a nickels round my nick. The Golden Ring. My heart stopped then now remembering what Servantfox said to Timehog, "Well at least she's not wearing the ring round her neck."
My fears of what it could be is now coming true... Oh God nooo...
I tried taking it off but it won't come off… Why of all things this got to happen to be me!? I started to yell out loud saying, "OMG THE RING IS ROUND MY NICK!"
"Yeah it is." He said as laid his back to the wall and laughing at me.
"Stop laughing and help me get it off."
"I can't help you, who ever had it in their hands last time can take it off of you." I tried to remember who had it last. I did. But wait I should be able to take it off. I started trying to remember what happen last night. Timehog and his friend came into my room...
"Crap," He said. A young fox came round the corner, then showing the same face of Sonic. Sonic looked back at the ring, then tighten his gripped round my wrist and tried to get the ring. But I wouldn't let him have it. With my other hand I tried stopping him.
After sometime he tried shaking me off the ring. It worked, but he let go of the ring too. As I fell to the floor, the ring dropped with me, but the golden ring grew bigger, and bigger! Next a small light came through the ring and in front of my eyes. Something I couldn't believe for many years. Inside the ring showed a forest of green trees, a lake near it and white clouds. The ring was a portal! And I wanted to keep something like that!?
"Crap." I said when I dropped down on my knees.
"What?" Cheshirsteeler asked, sounding worried about me.
"Omg why in the world this has to happen to me." I felt like crying. Not that I'm far way from home, now I belong to that idiot, Timehog...
"Ok you finally lost your mind. So if there's any brain in your head. I just want to say, look on the good side about it. I bet you have a very awesome husband!" At least his tried to make me happy...
"Sonic the Timehog?" I asked.
"Damn, really?" Cheshirsteeler said with a shock face.
"Yeah."
"I have no comment to that."
"Am I boomed?" I asked.
"Well not really, you can save a lot more money now since you don't have to buy a house, car and you get to go everywhere round the world for free, when most of us have to buy a airplane ticket," He said. I finally laughed or at least tried to laugh.
"You have airplanes here?" I asked.
"Yeah but it cost a lot to get one. For a good seat, tickets cost about $746 dollars each."
"Wow…" I layed my back on to the wooden floor. I can't take this. I want to go home...
Cheshirsteeler seem to get the hint then said, "well I do have a friend that might help us." I got up from the floor and jumped up and down for joy.
"Really great! Lets go!" I said as I was about to walk out the door.
"Yeah but it will take about two days to get there," He said. Two days...
"2 days in here… Are you sure that there's any faster way to get there?" I asked.
"Sorry. I'm not like Timehog, who can get you there in a hour." He said as he crossed his arms. If only you where him... Wait no. I'm glad your not him. Who knows what he would do to me...
"It's ok lets just get going. I have to get home soon." I said.
"Ok. But let me get food and other stuff for the trip."
"Ok... So what friend are we going to see?" I asked as I sat down in the brown wood chair.
"His a old friend of mine, Hatterhog," He said as he walked into the other room.
Hatterhog… I'm finally going to met this Hatterhog. I hope he can help me. Please help me Hatterhog, even though I really don't know you at all. Save me...
