Well, I did it! Chapter two is here and ready to read! Just a little authors note, however, I will try to update every weekend, but I'm a very busy gal. School on the weekday does't help at all. However, I'll try to get at least one chapter done every week! Hope you enjoy chapter 2 in A Nightmare that came True!
I don't own Sonic or any of the characters sadly. They all belong to Sega. Enjoy the Story!
The walk started out very slowly. Everybody was talking and asking me questions about where I lived and just general stuff about my family. I tried to answer them the best I could. Amy was the one who asked me where I lived, and I told her that I lived in a little town called Acornville. Tails kept on bugging me about what my family was like, but how could I tell them that their buddy Sonic had been keeping a huge secret from them all the time I have know them? I mean, it's not that easy just walking up to all of them and say, "Hey, I'm the prince of Acornville, and if my father dies then I'll have to become king." Most the time on the walk to the train station I just kept thinking that there was no way my dad is going to live. The other half of me, however, said, "Your father will be fine! He is strong and the King!" Somehow though I knew the first one was right.
"Ten tickets to Springfield, Mobius please," I asked quickly. "Sure thing! That will be $16.00." I handed the cash to the cash lady without another word. She handed me the tickets and off we went. "Hey Sonic," Amy asked me, "I thought you lived in Acornville, not Springfield." "Oh yeah, I do, there just isn't a train through there. We will just have to walk a couple miles to reach Acornville once we're in Springfield." "Oh, ok!' We all boarded the train and off we went.
The train itself wasn't so bad. There we three people per row and the seats were very comfortable. Amy sat with Cream and Cheese, Rough sat with Knuckles and Shadow, Blaze sat with Silver, and I sat with Tails. "Sonic," Tails asked, "What happened on the phone?" I looked at him and then out the window. Then I took a deep breath and told him this, "Well, my family is just having some little problems right now, but they'll be ok." My voice cracked on ok, and I turned to face the window again. "Sonic, what kind of family problems. It's obvious that this "family problem" is bad or you would be so, well, not you." "Look Tails," I said suddenly, "My little family problem is that my dad was shot, and may not live. I may have to now take care of everybody I know in love, in order to protect the kingdom I love. That good enough for you? I asked raising my voice. "Tails stared at me with concern and worry in his eyes. "Sonic," he started before he was cut off by me. "I need to get some air." I stood up and walked around him before taking off towards the cart barrier. Then, I open the door and walked out onto the platform. I stood there for a while looking at the moon, and enjoying the beautiful night, when I heard the door open. I about jumped out of my socks because I knew I wasn't suppose to be out here. Luckily, it was just Amy. "Sonic, what are you doing on the ground?" she questioned. I hadn't even realized that I fell when she opened up the door. So I made up a really lame excuse why. "I was, uhh, checking to see if the wood was up to date! Yup! It is!" Really Sonic, that's all you could think of! I said in my head. "Sure," she said with a giggle and sat down next to me. We sat there like that for a while, not talking just now looking up at the stars. "Sonic, can I ask you something?" "Sure Amy, what is it?" I replied. "Why did you run out of the train like you did?" "Needed air, hate staying in one place for so long," I lied. "I can see why. I mean your Sonic the Hedgehog, fastest thing alive!" I laughed at this and agreed. "Guess your right." "Oh and uh, Sonic." "Yes Amy." "Tails told me about your dad when I walked over to see you. I'm so sorry!" She said as tears started to pour down her face. "Hey, hey Amy, it's ok! It's ok! He'll make it! He is my dad, and an awesome fighter. I wouldn't worry about it, ok?" This seemed to cheer her up, and make her smile. "Ok Sonic, I hope your right." "Me too, Amy. Me too." Again there was silence, and I began to get lost in my thoughts again until an intercom came on. "Attention passengers, this is you conductor speaking, we will be in Springfield in about ten minutes, so please stay in your seat. Thank you for choosing Mobius Rail Line as travel destination." I looked over at Amy and saw that she was asleep on my lap. I blushed furiously at this and stared at her. Man, was she pretty, I thought in my head. I kept on thinking this over again until I saw her beginning to stir. She opened up both eyes to see me staring down into them. I doesn't take a genius to know that we both looked like strawberries. "Uh, the train, I mean conductor said we need to get back to our seats." "Oh uh ok." She started to get up, and then held her hand out to mine. I cautiously took it and she pulled me up. Strong and pretty, I thought in my head. I smiled at her, and then she smiled at me, when out of the blue, the train put on a hard stop and sent me and her flying. I hit my head on the railing and landed on my hurt hand and screamed out in pain. Funny, how just a stupid coat can cover up a bloody hand mess. Amy landed on top of me and just barely missed the railing. Amy also decided to scream in shock until we finally came to a complete stop.
"Attention passengers, looks like there is a little delay because of some railroad work up ahead. Its shouldn't be too long." "You ok Amy? I asked barley without showing any pain. "Yeah, yeah I'm ok. Are you ok?" "Y-yeah I'm good, I said with a grunt of pain. "Sonic, are you s…" We locked eyes, and blushed. I didn't realize how close our faces were together. We were about two inches apart. "Uh," She started. Man look at her eyes, she's so pretty. Why hadn't I seen it before. Her eyes sparkle, her fur smells like roses, and her lips…, I thought in my head. Suddenly I started to get closer to her. Her lips are so kissable, I thought. I wasn't thinking and I suddenly just couldn't help it. I got closer and closer to her face, when a shock of pain went through my body. "Ah! I yelled out, probably scaring Amy out of her mind. "Sonic! What is it? Oh you are hurt, aren't you?" She looked down at me and slowly got off of me. Then she yet again held out her hand, but this time I didn't take it. Once she got off of me I jumped up and got off my hand. I held it in a position that held ease the pain. "Sonic, your arm! Come on, I'm taking you to the train nurse or whatever you call it!" "She helped me up, and I immediately felt dizzy. I gripped Amy for support, and that's when she noticed something else. "Sonic, your head is bleeding too! Lets go before you bleed out." I chuckled again at this and started to see stars. Amy helped me through the carts, slowly one by one. By the third cart, however, I felt like I felt like I was going to pass out. "Amy, we n-need to take a break. I don't feel so…" Then the next thing you know, I was passed out cold on the train floor.
