Chapter 2:
“Well that was…odd” Knuckles decided to break the silence, because he couldn't stand the way they were all just staring blankly at the tiled floor in the kitchen.
“Which part was odd, the fact her favourite colour isn't pink, or that she isn't scared of spiders?” asked Shadow lazily, as he switched the leg, he was leaning on.
“It's none of those, it's the fact, that we really do stereotype her, even though she's trying to prove that she isn't what everyone thinks she is. However, it seems no matter how hard she tries, she feels we will always treat her like a child who is incapable of doing things,” said Tails.
Another wave of silence filled the room.
“That's not true” Sabrina voice came out a bit louder than she intended it to.
“Isn't it, didn't you just try to come to her rescue when she was arguing with Sonic before, but by you interfering you made her feel like she couldn't stand up for herself” Sabrina sighed, Tails was right.
In fact, now that she thought about it Amy did everything for herself around the apartment, she cleaned, did the shopping, woke her up in case she was late for an errand, she cooked, she did the laundry…Amy did just about everything in their home.
“Okay, I completely understand that, what I don't get, is why did she act the way she acted all these past years, and then she's suddenly trying to change what she already made us think of her” asked Rouge, she was worried about her best friend.
“Maybe because what we think of her isn't really her,” stated Sonic. Six pairs of eyes turned on him instantly, however he ignored the looks and carried on.
“If you haven't noticed, the real Amy, is stubborn like me, that's why the only time she acts differently would be when we're in an argument, that's where she shows her spunk, and how quick witted she could be…and for the love of God would you all stop giving me those looks” Sonic glared at them.
“I don't get it, weren't you the one who egged her on saying `you're not as grown up as you think you are” Knuckles said.
“Yeah and you also said she's still innocent” added Cream.
“Don't forget how he said she's still in love with him” finished shadow.
Sonic rolled his eyes at them, “I'm more observant than you think I am, she's still is a bit naïve, and she isn't that grown up, as for the whole in love with me thing…I just said that to get a rise out her. All I'm saying is let her be independent, and give her chance to prove she is more than we think she is, like that fact her favourite colour is jade, and she isn't afraid of spiders. Let's just let her be who she wants to be….”
Six pairs of eyes watched as the blue hedgehog left the kitchen.
That was completely and utterly freaky, one-minute theres a spider on his arm and he loses his mind, then the Amy incident, and now Sonic admitting that there is more to Amy than meets the eye.
“What the hell is going on with those two?” Shadow asked voicing out the question in everyone else's mind, but they all shrugged and left the kitchen area.

Amy groaned from where her body relaxed against the now warm window, she tried to snuggle into closer, but something wasn't her allowing to.
It was annoying her deep slumber, something Amy did not appreciate at all.
Thump!
There it was. That noise wasn't allowing her to go to dream land. Amy growled slightly, mumbling incoherent words, as she wasn't that awake to realise exactly what was going on, and she wasn't too asleep to know that someone was disturbing her rest.
Amy!
Amy!
AMY!
Amy frowned, that voice, it sounded familiar, very familiar…
Amy, it's me Sonic open the door!
`Is it me, or is Sonic in my head?' she thought to herself lazily.
Amy wake up, come on Ames, open the door!
It was then Amy's jade eyes snapped open, the room was dark, looking around she saw the clock read six-thirty pm. She could hear shouting, and she untangled herself from her seat by the window.
“Amy. Are you awake?…come on Ames wake up” so it was Sonic who was calling her…odd, didn't they just have an argument and hour and forty minutes ago, but she noticed something was amiss; his voice sounded frantic like there was something wrong…
The door began to rattle, which only added to her suspicions because she felt like he was going to bust the door down, which meant something must be up, she swiftly unlocked the door and jade eyes met emerald.
“Amy, we need to go” were the only words he uttered; he looked on edge and ready for a battle.
“Tell me what's wrong” Amy replied defiantly.
“Amy, please don't start we really need to get out of here”
“Well at least let me know what's going on, and where everyone else is”
“Shadow took Cream and your sister somewhere safe, Rouge, Knuckles and Tails are in trouble and I need to get you to safety”
“Sonic that still doesn't explain what's going on”
“Amy, stop being so fucking stubborn and do I as I fucking say, I'm here to protect you okay, so when I say we need to get the fuck out of here, I mean , we need to get the fuck out of her, and fast.” Amy gasped, his emerald eyes were blazing, she knew Sonic could be impatient but that blew the icing off the cake, the way her glared at her, making her follow his orders.
Taking advantage of her shock, Sonic aggressively lifted her into his arms, briefly noting she barely weighed anything, and he quickly ran down the stairs, carelessly kicking the front door open.
The sight that beheld her made her lost for words, there were many of them, they looked like soldiers, all of them surrounding the house, looking identical as the rest, they were robots that much she could tell, did that mean Eggman was attacking again?
No!
If it had been Eggman, she would have seen a symbol on the left side of the robot's chest, signifying that it was his property, but these robots had no symbol.
If it were Eggman surely, the mad doctor would have shown his face, and he would have been gloating like the idiot he was, droning on and on about how he was sure he could permanently get rid of Sonic, and how disastrous his plan was.
Then again, as far as Amy could see, Eggman was no were in site, and oddly enough that thought scared her, if Eggman wasn't behind this, who was, more to the point what were they after, blood shed, world domination, revenge?
Nevertheless, Amy had no time to think this through as Sonic began to surge forward, the wind rushing through her quills, as he carelessly leapt into the air, using the robots heads as stepping-stones, as his emerald eyes began formulating a plan.
Amy, thinking that he was going to run over the robot's heads, was hugely mistaken, as she felt Sonic come to a complete stop on top of one of the robots heads, as she took a quick glance around. All she could see around her for metres were robots, who had all turned to face them, launching all canon blasters directly at them.
She began to struggle in Sonic arms, fearing that they were going be turned into fried meat. Her eyes widened as she saw them beginning to launch the attack and before she knew she closed her eyes tightly as if it was going to lessen the pain that was about to impact her.
Just as the full blown attack was about to hit, Sonic leapt up high into sky, looking down below him as he saw smoke beginning to emit and the huge sound of an explosion met his ears.
He had to admit, it was a breath taking sight, seeing colours of red, yellow and orange mixing as if it were and art piece. How could such a beautiful picture bring so much negativity?
Amy watched the sight below her, calming down her racing heart, or at least what was left of it, she was pretty sure a few years of her life had been taken away as she nearly experienced a heart attack in mid air.
Sonic landed quickly, wasting no time in kicking his gears into high speed as he raced towards the city, swiftly zooming past burnt cars and burning buildings, his eyes narrowed trying to concentrate on getting the girl in his arms to safety, as he blocked out screams and cries.
Amy was shocked by the sight that beheld her, buildings were collapsed, or either burning, cars were up turned or smashed in, people were running, or lying unconscious ,maybe even …dead.
That thought alone made her blood turn cold; she had never been a huge fan of seeing dead bodies, but then again, who was?
Sonic stopped abruptly in front of Amy's apartment, his emerald eyes scanning the outside up to Amy's apartment window; he noticed it was slightly ajar, with the white curtains flowing a little from the window.
His eyes narrowed considerably, almost into slits, and his grip on Amy tightened, he entered the apartment building, the smell of something burning reaching his nostrils, it was dark, so he had to move slower than he would have liked.
Leaping from stair case to stair case, he finally reached Amy's floor, he settled her to the ground, signalling her to stay closely to him, he gripped his hands onto the front door, stumbling a bit when he found out it was already opened.
His breathing hitched, pushing the door open gradually, and cringing when it creaked, the sight that beheld both Sonic and Amy made them freeze.
Everything was broken, ripped, thrown and smashed, the window frames, glass included, were literally, removed…strange, wasn't the window just open just a while ago, with the glass and frames intact…
Something wasn't right, and from what they could tell, someone was looking for something that either Amy or Sabrina possessed, or maybe it was Amy and Sabrina that they were looking for.
A yell of panic broke Sonic out of daze, as he quickly rushed towards where the yell had come from.
He stopped immediately as he noticed Amy standing in the entrance of what he suspected to be her room.
“Amy what's wrong?” he asked his voice rushed.
He received no answer, instead she only pointed ahead of her, Sonic following the direction of her forefinger, his eyes widening at the sight before him.
A rope hung from the ceiling, a lifeless body hanging from the rope, eyes cold and lifeless, staring directly at them, as small drips of blood dripped from body like a tap, and to right of the body, on the wall written in blood red were the word `This is the beginning, I will get you Amelia'
Amelia?
Wasn't that Amy's full name? Said girl had frozen to spot, obviously traumatised.
“Jesus Christ” whispered Sonic, he quickly gripped the girl's hand, shutting the door from her view, and he noticed how her fur had paled dramatically, that was something somebody should never have to witness.
The front door slammed shut, casing the whole apartment to shake violently.
Sonic tensed, he knew it, somebody had been in the apartment building watching them all along, it explains the broken window, the body in the room, and now the door slamming shut…
But Sonic was caught of guard as his body was ripped brutally away from Amy's, feeling his head crash against the wall. Amy's eyes growing wide watching as Sonic was moved at a dangerous angle, hearing a disgusting crack, clearly showing a bone had been broken.
The shadowed figure roughly threw Sonic to the ground, averting his attention toward Amy. Amy gasped as blood red eyes settled on her, she felt a shiver run up her spine, as the creature began to advance towards her.
“Amy don't just fucking stand there run” Sonic shouted her as he stuggled to stand up, she couldn't help but notice that his left arm had been twisted into a nasty angle and so had his right legt.
“B-but, what about you, your hurt, I refuse to leave with out you,” she said, her voice coming out braver than she felt.
“Amy, this no time to for that, forget about me, I'm fine, but get out of her whilst you still can, and don't stop to come back for me, I'll be fine” his eyes told her other wise but she moved anyway.
The creature noticed her advance toward the door, she threw it open, and running as fast as her feet would carry her. She let the darkness of the hallway swallow her up, her feet carried her to elevator, as she pushed the button repeatedly, her breaths coming out in short puffs, as she felt a cold shiver raced up her spine, and before she knew it, she had been tackled onto the floor.
Bloody eyes bore into her own, as the creature growled at her, baring its fangs widely allowing her a full view of sharp teeth. Amy screamed, as she felt claws dig into her shoulders, the pain insufferable beyond belief, she felt tears to rush to eyes, but she wasn't going to give up, not yet, not ever, she had too much pride to go down like that.
Ignoring the pain in her shoulder, she used her free hand and put all her power into one punch, she smacked it directly into the creature's eyes, and suddenly the pressure was released on her shoulder. She then used her teeth and bit the creature one the nose, followed by bending her legs so she landed a double kick into the creature's stomach.
She wasted no time in quickly getting to her feet, and heading for the stairs, becoming aware of creature already getting back to it's feet, she knew those self defence lessons would come in handy one day. She leapt down the stairs taking them two at time, stumbling a bit.
She felt a throbbing ache in her shoulders, as noticed the top she adorned earlier in the day had become socked in crimson blood, a need to be sick arose at the feeling of her own blood, but she pushed it back down.
Reaching the bottom of the stairs, she stopped, she couldn't hear anyone following her anymore, she let her guard drop a bit.
She was about to leave the apartment building. when a growl stopped her dead in her tracks, and before she could move, she felt sharp pain blow her in the stomach and it took her a while to realize that she had been punched, she felt her body slide across the floor, feeling a coppery taste fill her mouth, as she began to cough up blood.
Another kick was aimed at her stomach, causing her to lose her breath, a wheeze slightly. The creatures claws settled around her throat, lifting her body from the ground as if it were a scarp piece of paper, it's grip increased immensely, as Amy kicked her feet about, feeling her eyes become heavier and heavier….until they gradually drifted shut….
Amy's eyes snapped open immediately, her legs flaring out in front of her, as she lost her balance and fell flat on her face, she began to cough viciously, as she struggled to take in air into her lungs, her eyes took in her surroundings, and she realized, she was back at the boys house. She froze.
Had everything that just happened been a dream?
However, everything had felt so real. She quickly touched her shoulder, to see if there was any blood… there was none, but that area felt sore, as did her stomach…something wasn't right, what had the point of that dream been, to warn her? Alternatively, was it just a figment of her imagination that it felt too real?
She looked at the clock in the room; it read six o' clock, a good thirty minutes ahead of her dream.
Amy looked outside her window, seeing that the there was no army of robot standing outside, that made her relax.
She chastised herself for being soo paranoid about nothing.
However somehow in the back of her mind and her heart…she felt that she wasn't being paranoid for nothing…she had a bad feeling, a very bad feeling that something was going to happen, and her dream had something to do with it…

A/N:
Well, all I can say is if you don't understand what just happened in this chapter, was that Amy had, had a dream, but I couldn't put that bit in italics because then you probably would have caught on because of the font and I was hoping, actually praying that some of you may be surprised when she woke up.
However, you people know the drill, you read, then review, then you tell me what sucked, and what was decent then I find a way to make it better, so thank you, your views and ideas are appreciated.
