Amy

"What are you- "

I hugged him tightly as he spoke to me again and I felt my eyes water and then he pushed me back.

"Amy… I know it's - "

"You are talking…" I say and he nods his head and looks around but then back to me. "This is the spirit world?"

"Yes. You have to- "

"Did we leave you?" I ask and his eyes softened.

"I don't know." He says and I touched his face.

"Why are you here?" I say and he looked into my eyes and then grabbed my hand.

He started to walk fast out of the forest, and I turn to look at it and then I looked back at his head.

"Hey… Wait." I say and continued to walk and I let him take me to where we were going and the area, we were starts to get suddenly dark and we were walking in pitch black.

He takes me more into the dark and then he stops and touches a wall that jiggles as you touch it.

"I… You can't be here. It's too dangerous." He says and I let him move me forward but then I caught his hand quick.

"You… you want me to what?" I say and he moves me forward, but I stop moving. "Sonic… tell me what's going on. Why can I hear you? You are in a coma. And Now you are saying you are in the spirit world?"

"Yes but- "Sonic looks over his shoulder and then he looks back at me. "You have to go- "

"Go where?" I say and pushes me forward. But I still look at him. "You can come with me."

"I can't." he says, and I touched him seriously this time.

"Why…."

Sonic looked at me and then he looked around the area and shakes his head and places his arms on my shoulder, moving me backwards but I stared at his worried face.

"Sonic, tell me why."

Sonic still moved me, but I move under his arms, and he turns around to me.

"Amy, please. Listen to me and leave. I can figure this out myself." He says and I continued to walk away.

"No… Explain to me why you can't leave here. Are you dead? What is going on to where you can't be in the real world."

Sonic stood there and rub his hands on his face.

"I don't have enough time to explain to you and keep you safe- "

"Then… I am not leaving until you tell me why." I say and Sonic stood in place. "I… I miss you in the real world. You expect me to leave… not when I have wanted to hear you speak to me for over a week." I say and I touched his hand.

"Just tell me- "

"No." he says, and he grabbed my hand and moved me back towards the weird black reflection.

"This is not safe for you. I can understand how to get out of here but if we are both stuck then who is going to watch over everyone- "

Sonic falls over on his knees after I sent my fist right into his stomach. He coughs and gasps for air and then he grabs my ankle.

"No?" I say to myself, and I look down at Sonic who just took the hardest punch I had been working on with Blaze. "Did you… just agree to not being with me again?

"Yes… to keep you safe- "

I kick Sonic in the same place, and he falls on his stomach in pain.

"To keep me safe…" I whisper and I felt that rush of fire every time I would get mad. It's like it would block out any feelings or remorse because of how loud it was in my body.

Sonic groans and he stops coughing for a moment and looked ahead and then to me.

"Amy. Please listen to me. This isn't the same time when we were in front of Sally. These spirits here can keep you trapped here forever."

I don't move and he grunts and stands up, but I jump into a firefighting stance, and I felt smoke start to erupt from my ears.

"When did you learn that?" Sonic asked and I didn't speak because I was so angry.

"Amy… are you really going to fight me?"

I exhaled and I shot a huge blue blast a fire out my fist and he moved out of the way and watched it sore past him. The blue flames flicker past his eyes and then they come back to mine.

"When could you do that- "

I flip and kick a flame down and he catches my foot.

"Amy, stop."

I swing my other foot and he lets go of the one I was holding and steps back. I kept trying to hit him with my flames, but he was just watching me with a sad expression and soon I was just trying to hit him at this point.

"Amy- "

I hit him in the chest. It wasn't hard because I starting to feel sad myself.

"You never wanted to be with me…" I say and a tear rolls down my cheek and his mouth opened, and he took my fist from him. "You lied me."

"I did. I want to protect you- "

I slap Sonic across the face, and he sighs.

"If you did then you would not try to get me to leave!" I yell and wipe my face. "Everything I have done was for you, Sonic! Everyone's life who was risked for you is waiting for you out there! And you are going to sit here and tell me you can't leave! Why?! Tell me why?!" I approach him and he looks away from me.

"All you do is keep secrets away from me when all I ever wanted to do was help you! Isn't it shown that I care about you more than myself! I thought… we were going to be together after this and still… you lie to me about really wanting to be there with me. Don't you like me?"

"I do. So much but- "

"There should be no 'but' when you care for someone!" I say and he agrees. "Tell me! All I want you to do is be honest with me!" I push him and he kept his eyes down.

"I'm working on being honest with people." He mutters and then I watch him speak softly. "It's not that I keep it away from you… I want you to know everything."

"Then say it. You can tell me."

"Not now."

He was starting to hurt me with his words now and he didn't know. But only because he wanted to protect me. This didn't feel like protection at all. I didn't even need his protection because I wanted him back… in normal life with me.

"Whenever I wake up. I'll tell you everything. This isn't a place to talk about this."

Sonic says and he tries to touch me, but I move my arm away and he grabs it fast and pulls me in close, but I keep my eyes from his.

"Don't do that." He says to me and let his strong arms wrap around my back as all I feel is betrayed. "I'm not trying to hurt you."

"But you are." I say and he leans back and shakes his head. "You will never let me in… will you?"

"I already have. You know more than anyone ever has of me my entire life. I… I wouldn't ever leave you out of my life again… not like last time. Because last time… I regretted keeping that to myself. And I want to make up for it- "

"Then just tell me… If you really like me… and you wanted to keep your promise. Then you would tell me, Sonic."

"I know."

That all he said, and I pushed off of me but the grabbed my finger and tried to pull it back.

"All I need is a moment to figure out how to leave, Amelia. Please understand."

"Understand what?! I am begging you. Begging, Sonic for you to tell me what the FUCK is going on and you are looking me in my tearful eyes and refusing to let me in!" I say and Sonic watched me yell at him.

"Just tell me! It might be something I already know." I say and he continued to look at me sorrowfully. "When we got back… we were all passed out. Everyone woke up eventually but you and we…all cried because you aren't there. We sat in your room. One night trying any type of healing, herbs, and other practices to wake up people in a coma but it didn't work… We were there for nights. And Knuckles and Tails. Barely got to see you because they were sent to prison." I say and Sonic listens to the information in silence.

"We all cried. And… I haven't slept in days. Not correctly and I slept in your room. Every night and Blaze would try to distract me and herself from not thinking about you by training …" I wipe my eyes and then I touch his arm.

"tell me… we have been suffering Sonic and you will not tell me! We talked about everything we saw you do here! We knew that you were off the entire time of you traveling over to Lera! We all thought that…. You have visions…. Because I had many visions here too but yours are different because you are connected to them somehow. Or someone." I say and Sonic stayed still, not telling me a word and I push his arm.

"Silver already told me about you saying something about Vaatu! Is he the reason?!"

Sonic froze and he blinked cautiously.

"Where did you hear that name from?"

I stop speaking and I noticed that I had probably found out why he was refusing to leave. I start to look around and Sonic grabbed my arm.

"Don't- "

"Is it Vaatu doing this too you?! IS Vaatu why you can't tell me?! Where is he?!" I yell and I frantically rip my arms from him, and he grabs me by my waist.

"Stop! This is serious!" Sonic says and I try to get out.

"No! Vaatu show yourself! "I yell and Sonic pulled at my waist, and he turned me around. "tell me why Sonic can't come back! What are you doing to him?! What have you been doing to him?! Talk to me!" I yell and Sonic tried to cover my mouth, but I blew fire out it.

"Amy! Stop!" Sonic says and I fall on the floor and Sonic tried to silence me, but I knew I close to something.

"Face me you coward! Give me Sonic back!" I yell and Sonic stopped moving and looked to left of him.

I stopped moving too and soon a cold harsh blow over me us and then rumbling happens right after. Sonic picks me up but then a blast pushes him away and I lose him, and I stand up slowly with the cold icy air around me.

"Sonic- "

A huge tentacle monster appears beside me, and its tentacle hits me harshly and I start flying towards the reflective blackness.

My eyes open and I rise up fast, knocking over Sonic's medication and I breath heavily as I look at his face.

"No…" I say and I lay my head back on his chest. "Let me back in!"

I open my eyes and I appear at the castle of the fire kingdom; I spin around, and I started to hear yelling.

"Amy!" Sonic was flying towards me and I watched him and then I felt the same coldness and I turn around as it blew up my back.

"It's the same monster I saw when I almost got hit by that lightning."

It looked down to me and its arm struck out towards me, but Sonic caught me just in time and we dash through the empty village, with shoulders and arms slamming near us.

"Is that why Sonic can't leave?"

Sonic hides in a small house and he holds me close to him and I look at Sonic.

Sonic looks down at me and he pulls me in close.

"Please. I'm begging you to leave!" he says, and he had tears in his eyes this time. "This is not about you. My sins… have nothing to do with you." He says and he grabbed my hands and kissed them.

"I want to be with you. I really do but I can't leave because I broke rules."

"What rules?"

"I haven't followed the culture of being a dark wielder. Because… of you.:" he says.

"What's that?"

"I don't have time to explain to you!" he says and then the ground rumbles and he picks me up and starts to run. "This is far beyond you, Amelia. I have to face this. Myself. If I could leave and be with you I would but I can't… I've tried."

"Tell me. I can understand. Or at least try- "

The roof gets torn apart and Sonic picks me up again and starts to fly, run, and roll out of danger as he held me close.

He was starting to make it back to the area that was complete dark but then the monster appeared in front us.

Sonic clutched me close and stood his ground.

"Leave her alone, Vaatu!" He yells and Vaatu stares right my eyes and Sonic hides my face from his.

"This girl is the reason why you cannot leave Sonic." Vaatu voice was loud and shook through my chest.

"Any moment when we are close to getting to your full power, she is why you can't get to where you need to be. So, let's end your distraction now!"

"If you even touch her, you will never see the real world ever again!" Sonic threatens and I moved my head to look at the monster, but Sonic moved me closer to his chest.

"Don't look at him." Sonic says and then I felt a breeze of coldness and Sonic started to run.

I couldn't tell what was going on, but Sonic was dodging his hits and running back through the castle. He flew out of it and then went to the dark area again and I moved my head and saw the reflection again.

He sets me down and before I could say anything.

He kisses me. Sonic held my face with his warm hands and kissed passionately and then once he removed his lips from mine, he smiled.

"It's okay." He says and I shook my head and grabbed his hands on my face." I'm sorry I make you angry at me all the time. And I wish I had the time to make you happy."

He kisses me again and hugs me tightly. "But I need you to go… Please. "

Sonic was pleading with me, and he looked behind him and then to me. "When I let you out. Don't come back."

"Sonic…" I say and he pushed me backs hard.

I woke up and I felt dizzy.

I was back on his chest, and I blinked slowly but then realized that… he wasn't here.

His smile when I left was painful to see and… his hands were shaking.

Why?

I knew if I went back I would danger my life but… I made a promise to bring everyone back to safety.

I laid my head on his chest and I already felt my body slipping away.

"And I will."

My face touches a body and listens to a heartbeat until I opened my eyes and saw Sonic looking at me.

"Why? he says, and I looked into his eyes. "Why Amy…"

I stood still as a tear fell down his face and he took a step back.

"Because I want to see you on the surface."

I looked around the darkness and I grabbed Sonic's hand.

"Let me try to push you in." I say and Sonic looked like he had lost all hope, but I wasn't going to give up.

I push him and he presses against the reflective wall, and it shook from my force. "Come on…" I say as I saw it wasn't letting him through.

"Amy, I've tried- "

"Then explain to me so I can understand!" I started to get frustrated, and I push his head to it. "Is it because you don't listen to him?"

"Kinda." He says and then I gently placed my arm in the darkness, and it went through and then I tried Sonic's, but it didn't budge.

"Shit." I say and I look around and try to think.

I run my hand through the wall, and it vibrates and wiggles as I run it through it.

"Maybe there is another exit." I say and look around but then I realize that the spirit world was just as big as the real world and… it would be impossible take us forever to leave here.

"Maybe if I hold your hand, you can connect to me, and we can walk out together." I say and I grab his hand, but I noticed that it was cold.

I turn to him, and Sonic eyes were gold. The look in his eyes made me want to take my hand back but his grip increased on it tenfold. He squeezed my hand and I yelp out loud and grabbed his wrist.

"What are you doing!?" I yelled and he threw me to the ground, and I hit it and look at his eyes.

They were empty. Like he wasn't even there and then he moved his arm back and I flinch, but I saw the same monster right behind him, copying his motions.

"He is controlling him."

Sonic shot a wave of bright orange flames at me, and I stand up and roll out of the way. I start to attempt to run as fast as I could out of the dark and randomly into the forest again.

I ran quickly and I tripped over another root.

"The roots bring you trouble I see."

I look up fast and see Koh.

"K-Koh help me understand all of this… why can't Sonic leave?" I ask and I guessed that Koh had met Sonic before and Koh swirls around a tree.

"Rushing. Rushing. Like leaves in fall to hit the ground." Koh says and I watch Koh speak in riddles and that was one I could understand.

"I'm rushing because Vaatu wants me dead." I say and Koh crawls towards me and its face changes into an older woman and Koh touches my head.

"You are learning him slowly. You are rushing. Rather than rushing. Get comfortable and wait for the leaf to fall." Koh says and I waited for Koh to stop looking at me and move behind me.

"I need to know how to get him out." I say and Koh rushing in front of me fast to possibly scare me, but it wasn't going to work.

Knowing the huge monster searching for me.

"Cling to him. Wrap your entire being around him and go deep into his mind. Once you feel the inner core of him, take little of what is holding him back and then… you both shall return together. As one." Koh says and the cold air rushes past me and I see that Koh was already leaving and then I turn and face the darkness and frigid air.

The darkness was fading out the gloomy forest as Sonic walked and walked closer to me. I stood there after listening to Koh and I ran to Sonic and wrapped my arms around him. Sonic body was cold, and I closed my eyes and placed it on his chest.

"Let me in."

I say and then I open my eyes and he starred at me.

"Sonic… it's me. You can fight him- "

Sonic grabbed me by the throat and squeezed harshly. My legs went flying in the air and he slams to the ground, and I cough out, but he added pressure.

"Sonic. Please!" I choke and he adds another hand to my neck.

I raised my hand up to fire bend, but a tentacle comes from his back and pushes both of my arms down. I tried to turn my neck, but he has a grip on it that made me feel faint.

"Sonic. Please… I want to help you. I know you can hear me. And I know how scary it is to let someone in on something you have gone through by yourself for so long…Just… let me try."

The griper got tighter, and I yelp out and Sonic hits my head on the ground again.

"Please- "

Sonic lets go of my neck and he grabs his own arm and slams it down to the ground. Sonic breathes heavily and he looks at me try to catch my breath and I kept my eyes on him.

"Vaatu is a dark spirt hat has been passed down my family for years. He holds dark energy that makes you do things he wants." Sonic says fast and his hand moves out to me, but he tackles it down.

"Vaatu has been very furious at me for falling for you! He wants you dead." Sonic says and then he shakes his head, and his eyes turn gold.

"Annoying girl! I should have made sure the fire kingdom had shot you twice!" Vaatu screams at me, but Sonic turns his head, and he looks back at me and his nose was bleeding.

"I'm losing control of him." Sonic says "That's why I don't want to go back because I do not want to hurt you. Or anyone." Sonic eyes slowly changed back to gold, and he stood up and stared at me.

"He is right. He is losing control and you should have stayed in the real world like you belong." Sonic says and he grabs my ankle.

"Leave him alone!" I yelled and that froze Vaatu.

I waited for Vaatu to throw me but then Sonic gasped and he let go of my leg and his eyes turned green.

Sonic eyes shook in fear and then another blast of cold air ran through us, and he reached for me.

"Amy - "

Vaatu hits Sonic body and I watch Sonic's body flip in the air and roll on the ground. He landed and didn't move after the impact. I got up fast and ran towards him.

"Sonic!" I yelled and I jumped on his body and moved his face to mine, and he looked pale.

"Idiot. He won't listen to reason so I will teach it out of him before he can ever leave." Vaatu says and he grows taller and I hold Sonic's body in my arms. "You have no idea what you are doing with someone so incapable of having friends and a lover. There is separation in the villages for a reason and you should mind your business about how the fire kingdom goes about."

"You promise to give me him and I will not harm Asendel for one hundred years." Vaatu says and I clutched Sonic.

"I can't do that… Sonic has suffered so much. I won't let you." I say and Vaatu eyes me and then raises his hand fast and I squeeze my eyes shut and hold Sonic.

"I'll get rid of you myself!"

"Leave us alone!" I yell and a bright light beam over my close eyelids and I open my eyes to green grass and mountains.

It was nighttime and I look around fast for Vaatu, but he was nowhere to be seen. I felt Sonic's hair on my thigh, reminding me of the blow he took, and I place him on my back and look around the strange area.

"Where am I?"

I walked and then I came across a bridge that led to a pond on the side. I walk over it and I gently place Sonic on the ground, and I was about to reach into the water until I saw two fish swimming around each other.

Black and white fish and I watched it move quickly.

My eyes move gently back to Sonic and then back to the fish swimming peaceful. I inch my hand close to the water until I saw my reflection and then I saw the moon behind me. But then… a person right over my shoulder and I turn around just as fast.

"I didn't think I would ever see you protect the prince of the fire nation."

My eyes shook and I turned around slowly as she bends down and pats my head and I stopped breathing while she got close to me.

"Seems like the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree."

"C-C-Cosmo?" I shook while I talked and then Cosmo smiled. "This is a dream?"

"No. It isn't. IT's the spirit world. And right now… you are on the water tribe, side of things." Cosmo says and she moves to me and hugs me.

"I don't have much time… I am… barely a spirit but I still have a connection to you in the real life." Cosmo says and I felt my eyes water and I hug her back.

"Cosmo… "I whimper

Cosmo looks at Sonic and sighs sadly.

"Sonic is sorry for what he did to you." I say and Cosmo looks at me. "If…if he was awake then he would apologize- "

"I know he is sorry. He apologized long ago and probably doesn't remember it but it's alright." Cosmo says and then she gently placed her hand in the water with the fish.

"Push and pull. Life and Death. Good and Evil. Yin and Yang." Cosmo turns to me and touches Sonic face after the having it in the water.

"The two fish display balance. Over and over again. The same outcome. But also, I think you and Sonic are in the same boat. Complete opposite. And I think you can give him balance. Because with Yin…"

Cosmo takes the fish out and the black on stopped Swimming and then she put it back and they started to swim back I sync. They swam in a counterclockwise rotation and then Cosmo hugs me and I hugged her back tightly.

"Things may seem stressful but- "

The ground shook and Cosmo looked forward and then back to me.

"You have to go."

"What? But… how do I get Sonic back?"

"Remember that Sonic needs balance to be able to go back." Cosmo says and she gets up fast, but I grab her pants.

"Tails loves you! A-and I've been training every day." I say and Cosmo froze and then she smiled and faces away.

"I've seen everything. I'm proud." Cosmo says and then the sky started to get dark, and Cosmo created an ice dome with a snap of fingers to protect us and then she turned to me once more.

"Teleport now. Just like you did before."

"Teleport?" I ask and it started to get darker, and Cosmo held the dome the longest she could.

"Yes! Do it now!" Cosmo yells and I panic and close my eyes and then another bright light appears, and I plop onto a different ground.

I open my eyes and I look at Sonic first and then I looked at the grass and it turned into flowers. I look up and around I saw the huge tree I saw from my dream.

It was quiet and I waited for the tree to speak but it was just as silent as the sky was. I look down to Sonic and I touch his face gently.

"Balance? … How do I give you balance. Balance of what?" I whisper.

I listen to a big yawn, and I turn around at the tree. The sun rose as its leaves grew a bright green and then I watched it grow an apple and it lowers it branch down to me.

"Welcome back, Amelia." The tree spoke in a deep tone.

"Hello." I say shyly and it drops it branch down to me for me to take the fruit. "I'm not hungry."

"Oh… I see." The tree leans back up but then it leans down to look at me. "Is this the man that awakened me?"

"Awakened?"

"You were as angry as you ever been and finally unleashed your fire abilities. Creating me and your own spirit realm." The tree says and I look around it.

"My spirit realm… Is that what this place is?"

"Yes. You can enter by focusing into you spirt. It will bring you right here and you can also bring a connected friend that have another spirit, of course."

"Thank you… Apollo." I say and the same cold wind rushes past us.

"Darkness?" Apollo says and I watch the grass turn brown quickly as it spread towards me.

"It's because of Sonic."

I close my eyes and somewhat transported again, and I found myself back at the fire kingdom. The darkness spreads over both of us and it was spinning in a vortex. I shut my eyes as it pushed me, but I can't my grip on Sonic the best I could.

"Let him go- "

"No! You free him so he can go back to the real world!" I yell and Vaatu wind got vicious and spun me around.

"You don't understand! Even if I wanted to let him go back I couldn't because he won't accept the darkness!" The Vaatu yelled and I kept my grip on Sonic. "Trust me! If I could let his idiot back into the real world then I would have done it by now, but this power cannot stay in the spirit world!"

"Then… give me it!" Yell back and the winds slowed down.

I open my eyes and I carefully look at Vaatu.

"You would take bit of the darkness with you?"

"Whatever stops your from hurting Sonic and… would let him leave." I say and Vaatu floated over us.

"You have know idea what the darkness contains. You at agreeing to something that was killed your kind for years. The darkness killed your mother and Cosmo… and many more to come. You spirt doesn't even have a spec of darkness in it and-"

"Then give me a spec." I say and I held Sonic closer. "Whatever helps Sonic. I'll do it."

Vaatu was astonished and I was too but once again… Sonic life felt so much important than mine at this moment.

"Are you sure. I will give you the tiniest drop of darkness. And it will be connected with you forever." Vaatu says and I held onto Sonic.

"Will anything change? With my power or… anything?"

"You will be connected to me and the realm you are tied too. The future depends on you." Vaatu says and I look at Sonic and then back to Vaatu.

"I'll do it."

Vaatu spreads its tentacles and it rotated around me quickly. My hair flew and I saw small flecks of black like leaves and it swirled around me fast making me close my eyes.

I open my eyes and all I saw was darkness until I blinked again and then I felt Sonic's head move in my arms and rose up fast as the wind faded.

Sonic looked at me in shock and then to Vaatu.

"VAATU! l Sonic yelled angrily and Vaatu started to disappear.

"Get out of my sight." Vaatu says last and then a bright light flash on us.

….

My head thumped and felt arms touch my back. I fell to the ground and cool hands touched my hot face.

"Amy?" Says a voice and I blink a couple of times and I saw Rouge and Cream holding me up.

"What…. Happened." I whisper and my head falls back as I felt so dizzy.

"Sonic… he woke up." Rouge says and I focus my attention on Sonic who was staring at me in shock.

He didn't seem happy at but angry and scared.

"Sonic… you should probably lay down. You are safe- "

"Amelia… what did you do." He says and I sat on the floor as her eyes were widen.

"Tell me you didn't let him put darkness in you."

Everyone looked at me and I stared into Sonic eyes as he breathes fast.

"I… there was no other way- "

Sonic jumped up and he jumped out to me and grabbed my shirt, frightening the others and Silver stopped him while Knuckles tried to get him off me too.

"I told you to leave! I told you to not listen to anything Vaatu says! Why would you curse yourself!? This isn't normal spirits or some gift. It's a curse Amelia! You accepted a curse and now you will have gone through the evilness he puts in people!" Sonic yelled.

Tears slowly filled my eye as he yelled at me and then Knuckles got Sonic off of me and Sonic tried to stand but he stumbled and fell back on the bed.

"Your leg isn't healed properly!" Cream says and leaves me to sit Sonic down and I sniff, and everyone pauses to see who was crying.

"I wanted… to s-save you." I say and Sonic eyes softened but he still held his ground.

"Amelia, not like this! You don't know half of the shit the darkness puts your through." Sonic exclaimed.

The room was still quiet, and Sonic looked defeated but also very heated.

"…She saved you though." Silver says and Sonic looks at him and then I do too.

"She sacrificed herself that has nothing to do with her! Nothing! And now she is going to have to deal with my burden!" Sonic says and he was about to cry too.

"Now what, Amelia!? Now what?"

I got up and I rushed over to Sonic. I grab his hospital shirt and I push him to the window with my fist close to setting him ablaze.

"I… did this all for you- "

"For nothing!" he yells back at me, and he grabbed my hands to throw it off of him, but I was way stronger at him because of his current state. "I told you over and over that this was only about me! I never asked to do that! Now you are cursed, and you have to live that because I couldn't wake up!"

"Sonic, you needed help! You can't do this all alone- "

"I have for years!"

I slam his head on the back of the window and that's when Cream stepped up, but my glare stayed on Sonic's.

"You aren't going to do this alone! You have people who care about you, and I am not about let you stand here and say that all of our sacrifices for you were pointless! Look at everyone." Sonic takes the time to look at everyone's nervous faces and Sonic face softened once more.

"We are here because of you! We care about you Sonic! And… I wasn't going to let you stay they any longer trying to figure this out yourself!" I yell and then I was starting to let go of his shirt.

"And I… I was so afraid of losing you… I still a-am. But when I realized that I could help with something you would never tell me then why I would hesitate?... All I wanted was you to be safe. For once in your life. But… if you want me to sit back and watch you crumble then… fine." I say and I let his shirt go and Sonic leaned on Cream for support.

"Then I will. We are done." I say and I walk past Rouge who wanted me to stop walking out but I continued to leave.

I wiped my face of my warm tears and I start to run out of this castle.

"I just wanted to help you."
