No Brotherly Love

Love On A Plane

Sonics POV:

I'm sat on a private jet now, with all the luxuries of a movie star. I think it's ridiculous that G.U.N spend money on these sorts of things rather than on things such as medicine and aid for the soldiers.

But still, I can't complain that much, these leather seats beat the metallic ones of a helicopter, and the food is good, not great, but good. One thing that shocks me is that they don't serve chilli dogs, so it's official; I'm filing in a complaint.

But other than minor things, this thing is brilliant, except for one thing. "SONIKKU!" That it doesn't have earmuffs. I turned to Alicia and saw the very thing I expected, a hedgehog that looked like it was about to burst.

"Yes Alicia?" I asked her calmly, still in my chair.

"What do you think you're doing?" She yelled as she leaned closer to me.

I pointed to the chair, as if it was obvious. "Sitting down."

"Why did you leave me back there? And better yet, why did you break your handcuff off?"

"Well, I broke the handcuff off 'coz it was starting to hurt my wrist. And I left you because you were snoring." I answered simply.

"I-I don't snore!" She countered.

I raised my hand to say something, but decided against it, knowing that if she still had that hammer, I'd loose more than just my pride. I turned away from her and looked out of the window. Alicia noticed this and I could tell that her expression changed to a worried one. I felt her gaze on me, but I did nothing, I had other things on my mind.

This is why I don't like vacations; I always end up thinking about things that make me upset, confused or angry. Right now, there was a list of things bothering me. There was this Amy turned to Alicia thing. Then there was Tails, then Shadow and the rest is just garbage, but something didn't feel right.

I looked back to where Alicia was standing, but she was gone. 'If she's Amy, she'll be wondering what's wrong with me now.' I thought to myself before I returned into my own little world.

As I sat in my seat, being depressed, Alicia was talking with the girls, Cream and the fox lady, in her bedroom. "I'm really worried about him. Ever since we mentioned the trip, he's acted all weird. It's like he's shutting us out."

"Yes." Cream said. "Before we left, I saw him looking at some flowers in the base. He just stood there, I was really worried. But then he looked at me and said 'Hi Cream', but he didn't smile."

"If I was to give you my professional opinion, I'd tell you not to worry. Sonic's survived a lot of traumas in his life. But if I give you my opinion as a person, I'd say he's struggling mentally and physically." The fox lady pushed in.

"Physically?" Alicia and Cream said simultaneously.

The fox lady nodded. "Don't tell me you're not noticing his physical being getting darker?" Alicia and Cream nodded to say that they noticed. "I think someone needs to spend time with him this vacation. Alicia?"

"What?" Alicia asked, a surprised look on her face.

"You care about him don't you?" Cream asked. Alicia place one hand on her arm and looked down to the floor, blushing. I weak smile spread across her face. Cream and the fox lady smiled at her reaction. "Well then Alicia, it has been settled. You're to keep an eye on Sonic." Cream said in a chirpy voice.

Hours past and everyone went to bed, except for me and Shadow. I hadn't moved from my spot all day. "You been sat there all day, hedgehog?" I heard him ask me. I nodded in reply to his question. "Well, what's bothering you?"

"Everything." I said. "Mainly Alicia, Tails and you."

"Me?" He asked, surprised.

I nodded. "It bothers me how you're my son."

"Thanks. It's good to know that I bother you just because I'm your son." He said, his tone was much angrier than before.

"I don't mean like that." I told him. "I mean how we were rivals. How we had nearly killed each other in the past, only to discover we're of the same flesh and blood."

He had a surprised look on his face. "This is a bit deep for you, isn't it hedgehog?"

I smiled at this and replied, "Of course. But I guess everyone has to let off steam every so often."

He nodded at my words. "What else is wrong with you?"

My facial expression changed to a serious one and I said, "Something doesn't feel right. Like I know something bad is going to happen on this island."

"Calm down. We're only going there to sunbathe and do a little research, that's all." He reassured me.

"Or is that what we're supposed to believe?"

"What do you mean?" He asked me.

"G.U.N has betrayed us before. What if they've done it again after realizing they can't win Tails and my father?" I asked.

"Do you really believe he's your father?"

"I don't know what to believe anymore. I thought I had life figured out, and it didn't involve this supernatural crap." I answered.

"Do you believe Alicia is Amy? That she is my mother?" He asked with sadness in his voice.

I looked at him with a smile and answered, "Yeah, I do. I believe it with all my heart."

He smiled and got up. "Well, that's good enough for me. Now if you don't mind, I need some shut eye." I nodded at him. Just before he left, he turned back to me and said, "Hey, Sonic?" I turned to him. "Don't have Alicia worrying over you too much. If she's like Amy, she's probably listening in on us right now." As he said that I heard someone hiss, "Shit!" I immediately knew who it was. 'Shadow really knows his mother.'

As Shadow left, I heard more someone scrambling around the air vents. I got up, ready to catch Alicia when she fell from the vents. Not a second later, I heard a scream and ran under it, reached my arms out, and as expected, Alicia fell into them.

It took her a few seconds to realize what had happened, but once she had come to her senses, she looked into my eyes. But this time I just put her down immediately. No cocky words, no jokes, nothing. I headed for my room when I heard her shout. "Wait!"

I turned to her, and I could tell by her face that I had changed again, changed into my dark form. She walked towards me slowly while speaking. "What's up with you?"

I looked into her eyes and saw worry in them. "Nothing, Alicia. Go back to bed."

"No." She said sternly. I looked to her and saw the determination that Amy had. "I'm not letting this carry on. Tell me what's wrong Sonic? Please."

Looking at her now, I realized how much she cared. The words she used and her eyes. They say eyes are the gateway to someone's soul. I don't know about that, but I do know they're the gateway to their feelings. "Alicia, I…"

I couldn't think of anything to say. But apparently I didn't need to, because Alicia walked up to me and gave me a hug. "Sonic, if you need to let out your feelings, I'm here for you." At this moment, my eyes shot open. For some reason, everything came back. The pain of loosing Amy, the hurt of knowing I'd be the one to kill Tails, everything hit me all at once. At that moment, I wrapped my arms around Alicia, holding her close. 'I need this, I need her.' I thought. My fists clenched on her clothing and tears began to fall from my eyes. I couldn't hold it in anymore, I NEEDED to cry. "Sonic, even if I'm not Amy, I'll do my best to be just like her."

"You don't need to Alicia; I just want you for who you are." At this point, I knew she was crying as well. "Grrr." I said though my teeth, trying to hold my tears and sorrow back.

"Sonic, it's ok to cry. I'm here for you." I heard Alicia say with a comforting tone.

I fell to my knees, feeling all the pain I held back for so long. I began to scream through my tears, there was no holding it back now. "I-I-I l-lov-v-ve y-you Alc-c-cia." I cried into her chest. I felt her tears hitting y head. I looked up to her and said, "I love you Amy."

She laughed at this. "Whether I'm Amy or Alicia doesn't matter, I love you either way, Sonic T. Hedgehog."

"Same here, Ames. Same here." I added on. I cried to her for hours, so much so that we fell asleep right there on the floor. This time our positions changed. This time, I fell asleep in her arms, in her comfort.

This chap was based on how I've been feeling lately. But when I get upset, it upsets everyone around me, so I've decided enough of that. I put my own experiences, my own feelings into this story. I love this story and the characters in it. Sonic is my childhood hero, so I hope you enjoyed this chap and I hope you enjoy the rest of the story. Thanks .
