Chapter 1:

 

 

Amy Rose, sat by the window, her now dull jade eyes watching as the sun began to peek its way up into the sky, such a breath taking sight.

 

The now seventeen-year-old pink hedgehog, lightly traced the cool glass that her cheek rested against.

 

She had been doing this every morning, for quite a while, she hadn't counted how long, but she didn't really care anymore…for some strange reason her out look on life had changed quite quickly over the following years, as she matured, and became more wiser, and more independent, although others seemed to over look it.

 

She even stopped chasing that blue blur of a hedgehog, that's right she no longer had strong feelings for Sonic, or that's what she had liked to tell herself, maybe she was a bit too stubborn to admit to herself that he still made her weak in the knees, though she hardly showed it now.

 

Amy thought about what it was that really made her change, it couldn't have been her mother, she died a few years back, from a rare illness, but she didn't like to think about that…or she tried not to think about that. Maybe it was because everyone else had changed; she felt the need to as well… now that she thought about it.

 

Sabrina, her older sister by at least two years and a month, had joined the group quite a while ago, living up to their mother's will, of Sabrina taking good care of Amy. Amy snorted in an un- lady like fashion, Sabrina, couldn't take care of herself if her life depended on it, but she was good company to have around, she was smart but in a her own way, and even though they argued, she knew how to make others around her feel entertained and welcomed.

 

Cream, was still a sweetie pie, but she had an uncanny habit, of looking for trouble, probably because Rouge had influenced her more than anyone could have thought possible…but she still retained her innocence.

 

Rouge has proved to be more than loyal to people, who gave her a reason to trust them, she was close to Amy, and the two could talk about nothing for hours on end…she was still hot headed though, and her jewel fetish had calmed down a lot over the pass few years.

 

Then there was Knuckles, to say he hasn't changed the most would be and understatement, his temper had calmed down, only making itself known when someone did something to really anger him, he and Rouge had managed to become more tolerable together, only arguing, when it was completely necessary, which thankfully was not all the time. However, he seemed less gullible than he used to be.

 

Shadow, had finally, accepted becoming apart of the group, he was still quite, but with his odd sense of humour, and his talent of manipulating people into doing things for him…okay so maybe Shadow, was still the same, but he made an effort, from time to time, that was some sort of improvement for him.

 

Tails, was still the nerdy, mechanic, that will always have a knack for inventing and fixing things, however over night he seemed to have grown a back bone, and decided to stand up for himself in arguments, he even cursed on a regular basis.

 

Finally, was Sonic…what was there to say about Sonic, apart from the fact, that, he may have changed physically. Although mentally, he was still impatient, stubborn, rude, untamed, bitchy, and increasingly irritating, and Amy found herself arguing with him more than every before. They just never seemed to see eye to eye anymore, for some reason.

 

Amy's thoughts were disturbed however, as a chirpy, nineteen year old bounced into the room, her tank top hung from her shoulder in a messy fashion, her sky blue eyes, twinkled in annoyance, as her untamed curly quills settled themselves around her face.

 

“You woke up early again” Sabrina looked at her little sister, this had been going on for a few months, Amy would wake up early, watch the sun rise, and she would walk into the lounge to see her sitting by the window, thinking.

 

“Yes, I woke up early, is that a problem all of a sudden?” Amy turned to look at Sabrina, she rolled her eyes at her, it was the same routine, she would wake up and then her sister will come in a few hours later, and say the same line over and over, like a broken record.

 

“No, no, there's no problem at all” Sabrina, smiled, as she lied through her teeth, her baby sister, made her so worried sometimes… “We're going out shopping with Rouge and Cream so go get dressed, then later we're going over to Tails place.”

 

Amy sighed, as she lifted her self up, and went into the bathroom, the way her sister spoke so casually about their friends, made it seem like she had known them all her life, where as she hadn't. she'd only known them a few years, don't get her wrong- she wasn't jealous, it just amazed her, that her sister adapted quickly into her life, as if she had been their all along.

 

However she had not been there all along, she lived with their aunt, whilst Amy lived with Cream and Vanilla, sure they spoke on the phone to each other, and met up for holidays…but they never really classified themselves as sisters until their mother passed away…

 

Amy sighed; she was thinking too much again, she stepped out of the shower, her now long quills stuck to her face, so she looked for a hair tie.

 

She stood in front of the full length mirror, analysing herself, she wasn't too skinny, but slightly under weight, her breasts were the regular C-cup, she had higher cheek bones, and her pink fur was still very well look after, apart from that she looked the same…just older.

 

She decided on wearing skinny jeans, with a tank top, as it was going to be quite hot, she put her quills into a ponytail, letting a few bangs brush her face.

 

“Amy, are you ready yet, we're going to be late,” said Sabrina as she poked her head through the door.

 

“Yeah, I'm coming” Amy grabbed a small jacket, and ten minutes later, they were driving into to town.

 

Sabrina sat her hands occupied, by holding the steering wheel, her car wasn't a working piece of art, but it still ran smoothly along the road.

 

“So why exactly are we going shopping again?” asked Amy.

 

“Because…we are young ladies, and as young ladies, I take it as my duty, to insure, that I and my little sister wear the best types of fashion there is out there”, Sabrina giggled at her little speech as Amy rolled her eyes at her.

 

“Oh Ames, don't give me that look, without me, I bet you would walk out the apartment in your undies”, she quickly glanced at her sister, who was on the verge of rolling her eyes again, she seemed to be doing it a lot lately. “Don't you dare roll your eyes, or I will pull over, and scalp them out”.

 

Despite the threat, Amy rolled her eyes, “I refuse to argue with you so early in the morning, until I get some coffee, until then, you will concentrate on the road, like a good driver should, besides, what's wrong with my fashion sense?” her voice, snapped, showing she clearly was annoyed, but Sabrina being her Sabrina, ignored her.

 

“Okay, first of all, it's twelve o' clock, which is midday. Moreover, there isn't anything wrong with your fashion sense, at least there isn't anymore, you have no idea how glad I am that you ditched that dress, it should have been burnt, and never allowed to see sunlight ever again. I mean it clashed with the colour of your fur, way too much, and you looked like a walking- talking, strawberry.”

 

Sabrina, shivered as she remembered the horrible dress from hell, whilst Amy sat there, her face masked with absolute shock, had her own flesh and blood, compared her to a strawberry, she scowled slightly, that dress wasn't as bad as she made it seem. She still kept it in her wardrobe, she just thought it was time to open up to a wider clothing range.

 

Sabrina pulled over to the curb, spotting two familiar, faces, one was a bat, wearing casual jeans and a t-shirt, whilst the other was a rabbit, her big brown eyes lit up, as she waved excitedly at them, wearing a skirt and halter-top.

 

“Hey Amy hey…” however, just as the rabbit was about to greet Sabrina, she was cut off, as Amy addressed her.

 

“Cream, get in the back seat, Rouge, you sit in the front, I refuse to sit next, to this, so called sister of mine any longer”

 

Both, Rouge and Cream followed Amy's instructions, knowing to just listen to her when she said something, she was the second youngest out of all of them, yet for some reason, she could control just about anyone, with a glare, even Shadow.

 

Sabrina, however, rolled her eyes at Amy's childish behaviour. “What did you say to her, this time?” asked Rouge as; she settled her legs on the dashboard.

 

“Amy is just being sour, because I told her that she looked like a walking-talking strawberry in that dress, she used to wear…”

 

A dead silence filled the vehicle, before two voices, broke out into a laughing fit.

 

“I'm sorry to say Ames, I love you and everything, but I can totally relate, to Sabrina, but I thought you looked more like and tomato, than a strawberry” Rouge, snorted slightly as she tried to hold in her laughter, however it was very futile as Cream added in her own two cents.

 

“Do you remember, how she would look, when she would hold the piko-piko, and beat the life out of one of Eggman robots it was too hilarious.” The car was once again filled with laughter, as Rouge, Cream and Sabrina, laughed so hard they were on the verge of tears, whilst Amy, sat with a deep scowl pressed into her features.

 

“Oh please, Cream, you used to wear, a dress similar to mine”

 

“Yeah, but she looked too adorable, so it didn't matter what she wore” answered Sabrina.

 

“What! you guys are soo against me, what is this, take the piss out of Amy day, I swear one more comment about that dress, and I will pulverise, each and every one of you” Amy stated, her voice was low and deadly which meant she was being serious.

 

“Oh chill out Ames. We were only messing with you, Sabrina even volunteered to buy you some nice, steamy coffee” Cream nudged Amy in the ribs.

 

“I agreed to no such thing” Sabrina objected as she swiftly parked the car, and killed the engine, but her objections were barley heard as, the other three had already left the car.

 

After, endless hours of moving from shop to shop, and trying on various clothes, and Cream consistently annoying Sabrina to buy Amy's coffee, which she eventually did, they decided that was enough shopping for the day, and thought they should visit Sonic and the others.

 

Cream rung the bell, silently waiting for the door to be opened, Sabrina and Rouge stood right behind her, whilst Amy stayed quite a distance away from them.

 

Suddenly, there was a loud thumping sound, then yelling, followed by the sound of someone laughing… all four girls stared indecorously at the door.

 

Suddenly the door swung open, and they were faced with, a violet-eyed red Echidna, who was laughing hysterically, whilst, holding on to his sides as if to stop himself from falling over because he was laughing to hard.

 

“What's going on?” asked Sabrina, her curiosity getting the better of her.

 

Knuckles straightened himself up looking at the girls, trying hard to resist the urge to carry on laughing, he was just about to speak, when loud foot steps echoed behind him.

 

“Get it off, get it off” the voiced yelled, instantly the girls recognised the voice to be Sonic's.

 

“I'm trying to, but you won't stand still, you sissy” another voice was heard, which was obviously Tails.

 

“I say, you leave it there to bite, his skinny little ass” a new voice added, his voice more calm, you could tell he was enjoying the situation immensely, which would be none other than Shadow.

 

“Come see for yourselves” Knuckles said to the four girls, who were still standing outside, they quickly entered the house, as Knuckles shut the door behind them, and followed the yelling all the way to kitchen.

 

Rouge almost wet herself at the sight before her…there was Sonic, a look of complete disgust marred into his emerald eyes, Tails, smirking at his best friends situation, as he tried, or at least looked like he was trying, to get the hairy spider off of Sonic's arm.

 

Cream instantly took cover behind Knuckles, not finding the situation funny at all, as she wasn't a big fan of creepy crawlies either.

 

Sabrina took sympathy on the poor hedgehog, not knowing that he had a fear of the big insect that was moving slowly on his arm.

 

“Trying, Tails you call what you're doing…trying, as far as I'm concerned, your just STANDING THERE” Sonic snapped at him, not letting his eyes stray from the eight-legged creature.

 

At Sonic's loud outburst, Amy couldn't help but roll her eyes, as he was clearly over reacting, and as usual, being immature. She silently made her way over to the hedgehog, whose incoherent sentences broke off into to silence, as he noticed Amy making her way over towards him, her jade gaze aimed at his arm, where the creature from hell stood.

 

Her, now un-gloved hands, reached out, gently nudging the spider onto her palm, she moved towards the window, where Cream still stood behind Knuckles and she “eeped” when she noticed Amy walking in her direction, so she quickly moved out of the way.

 

She opened the window, and used her none preoccupied hand, to flick the insect out the window. Amy washed her hands not forgetting to use soap, and dried her hands on a nearby by kitchen towel, she then turned around and was meet with seven pairs of eyes.

 

“What?” she looked at them, wondering why they were all staring her.

 

“Did…did you just take that spider off of Sonic's arm and flick it out the window?” asked Knuckles, as if he was seeing, but not really believing.

 

“Yes, Knuckles I did, is there a problem with that” Amy didn't see what the problem was.

 

“What Knuckles is trying to say is that he thought, we thought, that you were afraid of spiders, because before you used be really…” said Shadow, his arms folding as her leaned back against the wall.

 

“Girly” Amy finished for him “and because I was girly I wasn't supposed to just pick up that spider, because you all thought I was…girly. Wow that shows how much you guys think I've grown”

 

“well, Amy no offence but you still are girly, just because you threw the spider out the window isn't going to make you all grown up.” Amy whirled around to the owner of the voice, who was obviously Sonic, who else would it be, he was too dense to carry on.

 

“That's funny. Seeing, as you still the most immature, stubborn, obnoxious, arrogant, idiotic, annoying, self-obsessed, impatient asshole, who, screams like a little girl when a insect sits on his arm.” Amy said in all one breath..

 

Silence filled the room, however one person, sat with a smirk on his face.

 

“This is coming from you, Amy Rose, the girl who was so utterly and completely in love with me, and probably still is, Ames face it…you haven't grown up as much as you thought you did, you still that innocent little girl, who loves to live in happily ever-”

 

“Shut up. Sonic the hedgehog, don't you ever assume you know me, I'm not as innocent as you like to think…you think I'm in love with you, don't make me sick.”

 

Amy refuse to look at anyone's gaze, she was tired of the image she had imprinted into her sister and her friends minds, because she wasn't that girl.

 

Sabrina watched her sister, her big sister instincts were about to surface, “Amy, come on, calm down he was just teasing you…”

 

However, Sabrina didn't know how much her words struck a sensitive chord, as she watched her baby sister whirl around to face her, her long quills dancing lightly as she moved.

 

“oh yeah, that's right Sabrina, let's baby Amy, because she's incapable of being able to handle herself, right…let good old Sabrina live up to “mothers” will and cuddle and kiss me better. Well I'm sorry to say but I'm not and eight years old anymore”

 

Rouge frowned at Amy. Was she missing something? When did Amy Rose, a sweet and caring girl who loved life, suddenly turn sour? Maybe she had always been sour, she just hid it well, and maybe they didn't really know her.

 

“Amy…are you okay?” Cream asked, not sure if she should ask, she didn't want to be another victim to Amy's anger.

 

“No Cream, I'm not okay, I have friends who still think I should be treated like baby, and they still think that I'm this stereotypical ditz who can't stand up on her own two feet”

 

“Amy that's not true” said Tails

 

“What's my favourite colour?” Amy asked

 

“Oh that's easy, your favourite colour is pink,” answered Rouge, not really seeing the point behind the question.

 

“Wrong, my favourite colour is jade, that shows how much you really know me, or how much you thought you knew me. I'll admit, I'm not acting myself right now, but you guys are close to me, and the fact that you all thought that I would be scared of a spider. As once upon a time I used to wear a dress that made me look like a tomato and I would play damsel in distress more times than I could count, hurts a lot more than I thought it would.

 

To me it makes me feel like all I'll ever be is that girl, I'll never be mature enough, or good enough to be able to grow properly and be the person I want to be. Because no matter how many time I try…I'll always be Amy Rose, the girl who is head of heels in love with Sonic, and always plays the damsel in distress, and is obsessed with the colour pink”

 

Amy quietly left to room, deciding to go to one of the guest rooms, to just relax a bit. Everything had happened too quickly, one minute she had thrown a spider out the window, which then linked to her spilling her guts out about herself. She had never done that before...it felt good to get it off her chest, and she couldn't help but wonder if they had acted like she had completely lost the plot or if she had actually gotten through to them.

 

She knew Sonic would be too stubborn to thank her, after all he was Sonic he barley ever needed to thank anyone, so what would make her any different. Therefore, to avoid having to thank someone who was physically weaker than he was, help him in a time of distress, he caused a little spit fight, hitting all the sensitive parts knowing it would make her angry…and he got his way.

 

Amy settled herself against the window, her cheek rested against the cool glass, helping her relax; she curled her legs into her, to rest her arms against them…feeling her eyes begin to shut, she sighed watching the evening sun

 

Such a breath taking sight, she were the last thoughts that crossed her mind, before she finally lulled herself to sleep.
