Wait, hold on here! This style of author note looks familiar, well to a couple of you anyway I am sure. However, at the top of the chapter and this isn't Taurus Pixie's style? You would be correct, for today this is a request done by Taurus Pixie for Fated Lovers and I am the humble author who has the privilege of writing it for her. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Jowy Avilon. A name some may recognize by now as the co-author of the coming collab with Pix titled End Game. Hopefully despite the fact this one is handled by an entirely different author you all, Pixie included still enjoy. *Clears throat* Anyway, on with the show!

Disclaimer: I own nothing here, not even the plot this time. Hrmmmm, that's a new one. The plot belongs to Taurus Pixie and the rest belongs to and is copyright to Sega.

Requested by Taurus Pixie. STRANGE, ISN'T IT?!

Super Sunset

"Urk!" Sonic groaned out as the giant metal fist of Eggman's newest machine slammed into him, crushing him into the ground further.

Sonic wasn't used to this feeling, actually be handled by an Eggman bot. However this one was being powered by the seven Chaos Emeralds which was giving it powers and abilities far beyond what it should have, and that included being able to keep up with his incredible speed.

"Sonic!" he heard Amy cry out.

Sonic actually smiled hearing her voice, he had been fighting this thing with no success and his friends had finally arrived on the scene. Knuckles leaped instantly into action seeing his friend in trouble, latching onto the bot then slamming his fist hard into the robots chest which simply hurt the echidna's hand.

"What is this thing?! I didn't even leave a scratch on it!" the guardian called out obviously agitated by that turn of events.

With other targets to deal with now the Blue Blur felt the heavyweight of the fist lift off him, finally giving him a chance to breathe. In an instant he felt a familiar presence close to him reaching out a gloved hand to him. Sonic reached out to the hand and it helped pull him out of the fist sized crater he had just been punched into. The blue hero managed to get himself to his hands in knees, trying to catch his breath.

"Thanks... Amy," Sonic managed to get out.

The hammer user smiled softly at him looking him over. Her poor Sonic was covered in bruises, cuts, blood, dirt, and debris. Over head the sound of an airplane joining the fray could be heard, opening fire with its machine guns. Tails' had decided to arrive on the scene piloting the Tornado Two to give them some extra fire power.

"Is everyone okay?" came the voice of the young fox genius.

Everyone gave various gestures to let their friend know they were in fact fine.

"Now tell me Sonic, what you think of the Eggpocalypse?!" Eggman gloated speaking through an intercom system.

The Blue Speedster forced him back up to his feet at last, Amy holding on to him for support.

"What do I think? I think the names and designs of your creations just get more and more ridiculous!" Sonic taunted running his index finger under his nose.

"Why you!" the doctor raged.

The chest of the several story tall mech opened its chest and several missile tips emerged from the various holes. A moment later they all fired aiming at Sonic and his various friends. Sonic, finally feeling recovered leaped back into the action once more himself, spin attacking into all of the missiles he could immediately reach. The ones he couldn't get to, that Knuckles missed, and Tails couldn't shoot down ended up crashing down into various areas of Station Square destroying a lot of buildings and streets.

"Sonic, we can't keep fighting him here! We'll end up getting the city destroyed if we do!" Tails stated.

Tails was right, none of their conventional attacks or weapons were damaging the thing and all that was happening was they were getting beat and Station Square damaged. Sonic had one last idea and a cocky grin crossed his face.

"I got an idea!" Sonic yelled out to everyone.

In the blink of an eye he was running up vertically the Eggpocalypse's body as Eggman controlled it to try and swat him off. After a moment Sonic reached the head and spin attacked right through the glass eye which led into the bridge of the mech.

"Hello Egghead," Sonic stated calmly.

"Why you! What are you doing in here you blasted hedgehog?!" the mustached genius demanded.

"I am here for these," the Blue Blur replied.

Sonic vanished for just a second and when he reappeared he had all seven Chaos Emeralds scooped into his arms. Eggman's eyes went wide seeing this. Sonic gave Eggman a nod and leaped back out of the Eggpocalypse, the Chaos Emeralds forming a circle around him as he did so. The emeralds energy started to flow into Sonic and he became enveloped in a bright golden light. His quills raised up, his fur turned gold, and his eyes switched from their usual green to red. Sonic the Hedgehog was now in his super form.

"Sonic, you know not what you've done!" Eggman shouted at him.

"Sure I do doc, I have put an end to this plan of yours," Super Sonic stated confidently.

However, something in the doctor's tone made the Golden Blur a bit uneasy. Confirming his unease was the moment he saw Eggman eject from the Eggpocalypse in the Eggmobile.

"No you fool! Without the Chaos Emeralds to regulate its power output, it's going to generate too much and explode! A robot this size capable of putting out that much energy, you know what will happen!" the doctor raged in a nervous tone.

"That means it'll wipe out Station Square!" Tails said.

With that now out in the open Dr. Eggman quickly made a hasty retreat.

"Well now, I am not gonna let that happen," Super Sonic said.

"What are you planning Sonic?!" Amy demanded, obvious worry in her tone.

"What I do best," the golden hero replied with a smirk.

The super powered hedgehog floated closer to the now sparking Eggman mecha.

"Sonic you can't! What if you're caught in the explosion, even in your super form it might be too much," the hammer user pressed.

"Sorry Ames, but I can't let all of Station Square be destroyed because of me," the Golden Speedster said.

"Good luck Sonic!" he heard Knuckles shout from down below, giving him his vote of confidence.

"I know you will be just fine Sonic!" Tails followed suit, giving the same.

Super Sonic looked down at Amy, waiting for her confirmation. With a sad sigh Amy Rose simply nodded at him. She did not want to let him go because he could end hurt up or worse, but she knew she wouldn't be able to stop him. It was his hero spirit after all, one of the many things she had fallen in love with about him.

"Thank you," he said giving her a soft smile.

Super Sonic reached out his arms and focused on the chaos energy contained within his body.

"Chaos Control!" the golden hedgehog shouted.

In a bright flash of light both the adventurous hero and Eggpocalypse was gone. Knuckles and Amy quickly ran to the edge of the docks, looking for any sign of where Super Sonic had teleported to with the giant robot. Tails flew by over head flying a circle around his two remaining friends waiting with clenched teeth himself. After several tense moments a large explosion could be seen in the distance where they knew several uninhabited islands were. It was done, the Eggpocalypse had been destroyed and Station Square was safe once more. After several long tense filled moments though there was no sign of Sonic at all, which was making them all start to fear the worse. Had his super form ran out before he could get away? Tears welled up in Amy's eyes, not wanting to believe it. She started running toward the end of the dock and Knuckles had to leap after her, wrapping his arms around her tightly to keep her from doing something stupid. Amy collapsed to the ground knowing she could never out match Knuckles in strength.

"Sonic!" the pink hedgehog shouted out at the top of her lungs in obvious despair.

All of her pain, heartache, sadness, and regret could be felt in her tone as her voice echoed out and Tails could feel his heart clench tightly, tears welling up in his eyes as well. After all, Sonic was pretty much his older brother, the only real family he would say he ever had. Now that he could possibly be gone, it was too much bear for the young fox. Unseen by any of the trio though was the golden streak that was now heading right for them. The wind started to pick up around them as a sonic boom rang out with deafening sound, getting all of their attentions. Amy's eyes light up in hope when all of a sudden she felt herself being freed from Knuckles' grasp and scooped up bridal style in familiar feeling arms. Once the initial shock was over she opened her eyes and found herself gazing into fierce red orbs.

"Sonic!" she cried out as even more tears escaped and she hugged herself to him tighter.

After a moment Super Sonic landed, gently letting her out of his arms and back onto her own feet down on top of a tall building which had a great view of the ocean. The ocean where the sun was now starting to set behind. Amy could only stare out in amazement at the view. The timing of it couldn't be more perfect and it all felt so romantic to her. The golden hero approaching her side snapped her out of her revere though and she turned to face him.

"Sonic... I... I was so worried about you!" the pink hedgehog yelled out in pure relief.

"Heh see, I knew I would be fine," Super Sonic replied giving her a smirk.

With that the hammer user glance down at the roof they were standing on, looking down cast.

"Sonic please, you need to stop being so reckless. One of these days you're going to pull a stunt like that and it isn't going to end well for you. Think of those you would leave behind... Think about me," Amy said with a low, depressed tone.

The Golden Blur turned his head to look at her and he couldn't help but feel bad seeing her like this. She had been so worried about him, always was when he was being a hero. Or more accurately when he was making as she put it, wreckless decisions. With that thought Super Sonic couldn't help but let off a small grin as he turned to face her directly, placing his thumb under her chin and gently lifting her head so she was gazing into his eyes.

"Look Ames, I really am sorry. I didn't mean to worry you or anyone else," Super Sonic stated softly.

The super powered hedgehog, not standing to see her looking like she was reached up from her chin, using his thumb to this time wipe away the tears that were escaping her eyes.

"I love you and care too much about you Sonic, I don't want you to end up hurt or worse," Amy said, her eyes frozen to his, unable to look away.

"I know you do," he replied in a tone the pink hedgehog had never recalled hearing from him.

Then to her surprise the Golden Speedster reached his arms around her pulling her closer to him in a tight embrace, bringing his face closer to hers. Before she had a chance to react Super Sonic pressed his lips into her, catching her in a surprise kiss filled with deep passion. Amy felt her knees go weak and thankful her hero had such a strong grip around her right now as she closed her own eyes and returned the kiss with as much passion. As the two embraced in their kiss the golden aura surrounding Super Sonic extended out to her and embraced her in its empowering light and embrace as well. Despite the fact only several moments had passed, to Amy it felt like a life time had before the Golden Blur finally broke away from the kiss.

"S-Sonic? What was... That?" the hammer user inquired breathless and stunned.

The golden hero turned and looked out toward the still setting sun where the first stars of the night were finally starting to peek through.

"That was a promise Amy, a promise of a better tomorrow. A promise that no matter what I will always return to you," Super Sonic stated.

With a smile on her face Amy Rose turned to watch the sunset once more. With a happy sigh she let herself relax into her heroes arms who was now holding her closely and protectively to him, letting herself absorb it all in. She leaned her head against him to get more comfortable thinking to herself that Sonic's promise was one she would always hold him to for the rest of his life.
