Chapter Five

Her Eyes

We all waited impatiently, we could hear tails fumbling about behind the workshop.

"Well I'm tired" Knuckles complained.

"Then take a nap" Rouge said in annoyance

"I don't wanna miss anything" he yawned

"then stop complaining" Rouge said irritably

"Both of you shut it" Shadow spat.

Somehow the dark hedgehog managed to get here from New York. He wasn't wearing his heavy coat anymore, he wore a black shirt and a red slack basket ball shorts. He was calmly leaning his back on the wall with his eyes closed.

Cream was keeping her hands busy by making what looked like a crown of flowers, I smiled warmly at the Rabbit, it must be for Amy.

Rouge and Knuckles turned on the TV and kept themselves entertained by watching "Dumb Animals". I sat on the armchair and glanced once or twice at the TV, then at Shadow, Cream, just to keep my mind busy, which failed of course. I wonder if she remembers me? The gang? Could she hear what we were saying while she slept?

As if time flew Tails burst out the door a panic yet relived expression on his face. Everyone shot their glances at the panting teenage fox and waited.

"Sonic" he said looking at me.

I didn't waste time to get to my feet and sped to Tails. "Yeah?" I said softly

"You need to see this.." he said gently.

I followed him inside leaving the now quiet room. I stopped dead in my tracks, she had nothing connected to her, she was sitting upright and glancing around the room, her gaze landed on me and my heart stopped, her eyes…were magenta, I blinked once, twice, then back to normal, I looked at Tails quizzically and he shrugged his shoulders, that I didn't like to see.

"That's not all" he said painfully

"What?" I asked him then turned my gaze back to the hedgehog. She seemed worried, lost even.

"Im sorry, doctor, who is this?" she said to tails politely.

What?...

"This is Sonic The Hedgehog, Amy" Tails responded.

"Sonic?" she asked tuning to me.

"Yeah Ames" I said stepping carefully to her

"Nice to meet ya" she said with a small smile.

It was pretty, no beautiful, her lips were full and glossy, small lines curved at the edges of her mouth and her eyes seemed to sparkle just a bit.

"This isn't the first time Ames" I said and sat on the chair next to her bed

"It isn't?" she asked looking at me.

"No" I said slightly shaking my head.

"Well, you're familiar for sure" she said thinking.

"Amy, tell Sonic what you told me earlier" Tails said tiredly.

"Oh…" she said and looked at her hands, and for the first time in three years I saw her blush.

"You are familiar Mr. Sonic, because, I see you in my dreams very often" she said fiddling with her fingers.

"Oh?" I asked creating a small blush of my own.

"Yes.." she said looking away

Tails hand brought me back to reality when he cleared his throat. "Im gonna let the gang in Amy, you remember them right?" he asked her

"Yes I do!" she said her face lighting up suddenly

I was taken back, wait….what?!

"Sonic I need to talk to you" Tails whispered.

I nodded slowly and rose giving her a weak smile and she returned it. I followed Tails out her little room and he let the gang inside. I heard faint giggles and excited comments from the room and couldn't help but to feel jealous.

Tails ran a hand through his hair and seemed stressed out, the poor thing had a test tomorrow and he's up trying to figure out the impossible.

"Sonic, remember when I told u I think Amy got drugged?" he asked in a low whisper.

"Yeah" I croaked out

"Her eyes aren't green anymore" he said in deep thought

"Jade" I corrected without knowing

He smiled and frowned quickly. "Something tells me whoever did this, didn't want her to remember you, she remembers all of us except you but u, and the moment I mentioned ur name she was at a blank, it didn't make sense being that she spent most of her time with you when we were kids. And even the accident." He said without breath.

"Does she remember that?" I asked suddenly

"I didn't bring it up, she just woke up after all, I just want her to relax and adapt before I scare her" he said yawning.

I nodded, " hey you should get some rest ill watch her tonight" I said softly

"Thanks Sonic, I'll take Cream home though" he said stretching. "Again" he sighed and disappeared into the house again.

I glanced upwards and sighed. Who would do that? Why only me?

I snapped out of my trance when I heard the X-Tornado taking off and Tails yelling at me to get inside. I nodded and waved them off and stepped into Amy's room again. She looked up and me and smiled sweetly.

"Hey Mr. Sonic" she smiled.

"Hey Ames" I said with a small smile.

"It was really nice of my friends to come see me, Tails said I was asleep for a while" she laughed nervously.

I spotted her muzzle tuning a bright red as she looked at her fingers.

"Did he tell you how long?" I asked sitting on the bed.

"Yeah a solid three years, I don't think I could sleep again" she laughed.

It was different, but you could tell it belonged to her, her mouth lay agape and a pretty laugh escaped her throat, I couldn't help but to join her.

"Your something else" I smiled

"So I heard." She said quietly. "I have a lot of catching up to do huh?" she asked

"Yeah , you're supposed to be in your last year of high school at this age" I said poi tingly

"How old am I again?" she asked looking at me

" Sixteen" I told her

"Oh? And how old are you Mr. Sonic?" she asked blinking

"Oh, um, im actually making 20 soon" I said.

"Oh wow, then you're already ready to find a gal and settle down huh? Cool, im sure glad that I didn't wake up at 20, I wouldn't even know where to start" she laughed.

"You wouldn't have to worry Ames, You've got great friends" I smiled warmly at her.

Her magenta eyes shimmered and she nodded. "Yep! I sure do, im gonna do my best to catch up, oh wait…" she sat down thinking hard. She glanced at the clock and gasped.

"What is it?" I asked her

She looked at me and blinked. "Tomorrow's my birthday…" she said softly.

"Y-You remembered your birthday?!" I asked taken back.

"Yeah…im sixteen tomorrow…" she said staring hard at me.

"Well in a couple minutes actually" I sad looking at the clock. "Im gonna be the first to wish you happy birthday" I grinned

She smiled warmly. "That would be cool" she said with a smile.

"Im the definition of cool" I said cockily, surprising the both of us we glanced at each other and cracked up laughing.

Amy and I talked for what seemed like hours, I wished her happy birthday at 12:00 am and she was as happy as I ever saw her. Tails came home and did a blood test then gave her some medicine. He left to get some sleep and asked me to do the same.

"Thank you for staying up with me" she said suddenly

I opened my eyes slowly and saw her smiling at me, I was laying on her lap, with her hands in my quills. She blushed deep red and my face heated. We blinked a few times then laughed awkwardly.

"I better get some sleep" I said standing up.

She was silent

I looked at her, but she stared at her fingers. "I don't want to be alone.." she said quietly

My heart raced, her eyes were shy and she bit her lower lip nervously, it was…..cute.

"Then im here to stay, it's your birthday after all" I sad sitting back down.

She beamed up at me "Thank you!" she said.

Amy's POV

He was warm…Mr. Sonic, laid in my lap like a baby almost. His face was calm, but his eyes told a story, a story I want to hear, but why is he so familiar in my dreams and when he sees me? Soon after talking to me again he had fallen asleep, and I couldn't stop myself from tangling my hands in his quills over and over, he would smile every now and again when I did it and a familiar heat reached my muzzle every time.

" Why don't I remember you?" I asked the sleeping hedgehog.

"Ames….your …safe" he mumbled.

Safe? Was I in danger before? Had he saved me from that danger?

*Clatter*

I shot my head upwards and blinked….what was that noise just now?

"Tails?" I called carefully

"No sweetheart" an icy voice said opening my door. "I see you've got your hands on my fiancée" she said icily.

I could make out a squire-like figure in the outer darkness of the workshop, I could only see cold blue eyes glaring at me, and I caught a glimpse of a syringe in her hand and her amber hair.

"Who..who are you?" I asked holding on to Sonic.

"Like I said, Sonics fiancée" she said stepping forward. She reminded me of someone, in my dreams, just like Sonic, only I had a sense of hatred but more so fright over this girl….woman.

"SONIKKU!" I yelled at the sleeping hedgehog

Sonikku…? My…Sonikku?

"Ames? What's the matter?" Sonic asked rising his head.

The squirrel knocked him out with a serious fist to the head and he lay almost lifeless on my lap.

"SONIKKU WAKE UP!" I panicked shaking him.

I felt a sharp pain to the side of my neck and the rush of cold liquid, then it drew from my body and my body fell onto the mattress, I struggled to keep my eyes open to see a strange looking man with a mustache slapping the squirrel on her butt and kissed her hungrily.

"Excellent Sally" he said with a devilish smile

"Thank you doctor" she said dreamily.

"Now for your gift" he said squeezing her right breast granting him a moan.

Sally?...

Darkness engulfed me, and so did that horrible nightmare.
