Chapter 6
Escaping The Truth
Sonic stared at Robotnik in horror at what he just said to Sonic. The blue hedgehog shook his head in denial. It couldn't be true. It just couldn't. Could it? Sonic looked at Robotnik and saw his smile. He frowned and growled.
"What do you mean that I'm now a vampire?" Sonic asked, worried.
Robotnik's smile turned into a grin. He looked at the blood surrounding the hedgehog's mouth. Sonic knew he had killed the cat but he didn't want to believe it.
"Sonic, you killed that cat," Robotnik told him.
Sonic's knees buckled under him as tears welled up in his eyes.
"I Know That!" Sonic shouted. "But Tell Me How I'm A Vampire!"
"I know, but that doesn't mean I will tell you," Robotnik said.
Sonic stared at Robotnik. He, then, looked over at the dead, blood-drained, cat. Sonic felt that urge inside of him again and it felt weaker than before but it was still irresistable. Sonic should've known that Robotnik wouldn't tell him anything about him being a vampire. He would have to have Rotor scan him and tell him.
Sonic shook his head and looked at the sliding doors. He grinned back at Robotnik and zipped past him. Robotnik smiled as Sonic went past him. He knew the hedgehog was going to break his friends out. He would allow that but the hedgehog would soon regret it once he was thirsty once more.
Sonic ran through the sliding doors. He ran down the hallway and into the dungeon-like area where the cells were. Sonic looked around trying to find the cell Bunnie and Sally were inside. He soon found Sally and Bunnie's cell near the end of a row of cells.
"Oh, Sugar-hog, what'd the, doc, do to you?" Bunnie asked.
It's not what he did, it's what I did, Sonic thought of what he did in disgust.
"Sonic, are you okay?" Sally asked.
"Yeah, just fine," he answered.
Sonic looked at the cell bars and grabbed hold of them. Sonic pulled them as far a part as he could. He couldn't do it that far. He growled as he pulled. He let go and saw he only made them far enough for Sally to fit through. Bunnie wouldn't be able to because of her robotic limbs. Sonic looked at the bars and then at Bunnie.
"Bunnie, try and make the bars more far apart," Sonic told her.
"Alright, Sugar-hog," she said.
Bunnie grabbed the bars and started to do the same thing Sonic did. She pulled harder and accidentally broke the two bars she was holding. She held them and then threw them aside.
"Oops," she smirked.
Sonic smiled and Sally and Bunnie got out through the hole that was created for them. Sonic grabbed them and started to run back to Knothole. Sally looked at Sonic in worry.
"What happened in there, Sonic?" Sally asked.
"Nothing, Sal, you don't need to worry about it," Sonic told Sally.
"Why are there not any 'bots 'round?" Bunnie asked Sonic.
"Who knows," Sonic shrugged, faking that he didn't know.
He didn't want to talk about what happened in the room with Robotnik. If he had wanted to he would've already told them. His eyes looked to the horizon and he sighed. It was nearing night and the sun was starting to burn his skin. He hoped the girls wouldn't notice the smoke coming from his skin as he ran back to Knothole.
