When Amy Met Sonic Chapter 2 (I had originally intended for this story to end at the point where SonicCD began. But after several requests, I decided to expand on the story with a second chapter. Enjoy! ^^) Amy Rose had never been so frightened in her life. Here she was, tied to a metal post at the end of something called Stardust Speedway, being used as bait in a trap. A trap for Sonic the Hedgehog. How could she have ended up like this? The day had started out well enough, she remembered. She had met the famous Sonic and Tails. She had offered to show Sonic a shortcut to Never Lake. Amy had felt quite proud of herself; here she was, an unknown orphan girl, helping the great Sonic the Hedgehog! What happened next was kind of a blur: One second she was talking to Sonic, the next something swooshed down from out of nowhere and grabbed her! Amy would never forget that horrible Sonic-like robot that had carried her off; especially those glowing, red, soulless eyes. She would also never forget the loathsome creature that she was brought before: Dr. Ivo Robotnik! The Sonic-robot dropped her rather roughly at Robotnik’s feet. When Amy looked up to actually see Robotnik, her heart almost stopped cold! She had heard all sorts of stories of this human (if he could still be called that) and his cruelties. God only knew what he was going to do with her! And what could little 13-year-old her do about it? Amy was terrified! How she wished she had just gone to the cafeteria with Rachel! "Well look what we have here!" Robotnik said as he towered over Amy. "Does Sonic have a little sweetheart now?" "Sweetheart?!" Amy thought. "I only just met him this morning!" "And do you have a name, young lady?" Robotnik asked. "Her name is Amy Rose." The Sonic-robot said. Amy was shocked! "How could you know that?!" "Easy, my dear!" Robotnik said. "Metal Sonic has all of Sonic’s feelings, thoughts, and emotions programmed into him. Sometimes he can even read Sonic’s mind!" Now Amy was truly frightened! "Let me provide a further demonstration!" Robotnik said. "Metal? Where is our Hedgehog friend now?" "He is in the Collision Chaos Zone." Metal said. He looked at Amy. "And he is rather worried about you!" "Worried about me?" Amy thought. No one had ever been worried about her before! Certainly not in that orphanage where one was just fed and clothed and little else. "Metal? Take young Amy to the Stardust Speedway Zone!" Robotnik said. "That’s where we’ll finish off our friend Sonic!" "What are you going to do with me?" Amy said as Metal Sonic dragged her away. "That’s for me to know and you to find out!" Robotnik sneered. "Just cooperate like a good girl and I just might be inclined to let you live!" Sonic stopped at the edge of the Stardust Speedway. The Time Stones were safe, now he just had to find this Amy girl and that...thing that had grabbed her! Somehow, he sensed that both were close by. He couldn’t allow anything to happen to an innocent person; and for some reason, he felt like he wanted to get to know this girl better. "Why do I keep thinking that?" "Welcome Sonic!" A familiar malicious voice said. Sonic looked up to see Robotnik in one of his Eggmobiles and that robot that had grabbed Amy! "Screw the small talk, Egg-butt!" Sonic growled. "What have you done with Amy?" "My! My!" Robotnik said. "Worried about your girlfriend, are you?" "Girlfriend?!" Sonic thought. "I only just met her this morning!" "She is at the end of this track, the Stardust Speedway!" Robotnik said. "All you have to do is get there before Metal Sonic does!" Sonic sized up his opponent. Another robot Sonic? He had defeated Silver Sonic aboard the Death Egg and Mecha Sonic on Angel Island. This one appeared to be a lot more advanced and a lot more dangerous, but Sonic was still sure that he could take him! He glanced up at Robotnik. "I seriously doubt that you’re going to make it that easy for me, Eggman!" Sonic saw a device on the underside of the Eggmobile. It was an energy beam generator. Sonic realized that he would have to outrun both Metal Sonic and that beam! "Ahh! A challenge!" Sonic said. "That’s more like it! Let’s dance!" Amy was desperately trying to get loose from her ropes, but it was no use. Robotnik must have been a scout or something to tie a knot that good! "Robotnik’s gonna kill Sonic and then come back and kill me!" She thought. It looked like there was no hope at all left... But suddenly, Amy saw something coming! It was a blue streak! No, it was Sonic!!! It looked like something out of a storybook; a blazing blue knight coming to her rescue! "No, that’s just silly, girl!" Amy thought. "This isn’t a story! This is all too real!" Still, for the first time in her entire life, somebody was showing real concern for her! She had no family and few friends at the orphanage; just the thought that somebody could really be concerned for her was a major impact! Sonic was the great hero of the planet Mobius and now...now he was her hero too! But just then, Amy saw the doorway that separated her from Sonic starting to close! Worse yet, she saw Metal Sonic and Robotnik closing in behind Sonic! "No! Not even Sonic can make it!" Amy thought. She closed her eyes, not wanting to look... Miles "Tails" Prower approached Never Lake in the newly-repaired Tornado. "I hope I’m not too late." He said. As he arrived on the scene, he found that the Little Planet was gone! As he flew along the shore, he saw Sonic waving to him. He also saw that Amy girl they had met this morning clinging onto Sonic! Tails landed the Tornado and approached his friend. "Sonic, what’s happened?" "Afraid you missed the whole show, buddy!" Sonic said. Then he whispered to Tails "Now could you help me do something about this?" He indicated Amy. "That was incredible!" Amy said, enthusiastically. "There was Robotnik and this Sonic robot and they had me tied up and Sonic just kicked both their asses and saved me and..." "Okay, I think I get the picture!" Tails said, trying not to chuckle at Sonic’s "misfortune." "Sonic, you are the greatest!" Amy said. "You are da man! You are...my hero!" "Yeah, that’s nice!" Sonic said, trying to let go. "But shouldn’t we be getting you back to your family right about now?" "Oh, yeah." Amy let go of Sonic. "I don’t have any family. Just that old orphanage in town..." "Oh, I’m sorry." Sonic said. "I didn’t know." "Hmmm." Tails said. "Sonic? Maybe she could stay with us!" "WHAT?!" Sonic said. "Oh, could I, Sonic?" Amy said. "Could I really get to go with you two on your adventures? Please?" "C’mon, Sonic!" said Tails. "She’s just another orphan alone in the world just like me and you!" "Now look, you two..." Sonic said. Well, Tails did have something of a point. And, even though she had been annoying the hell out of him since he had saved her, Sonic still felt that there was something special about this Amy Rose. He kinda secretly liked her. "Oh, all right!" Sonic said. "She can stay with us! I’ll take you by the orphanage to get your things!" "Oh, thank you, Sonic!" Amy hugged him again. "What have I gotten myself into?" Sonic thought. Just then, Sonic heard a flash. It was Tails’ little pocket camera that he had gotten out of the Tornado! "Sorry, Sonic!" said Tails. "But I just had to get a picture of that!" "What a day!" Sonic said. 15 YEARS LATER: Katana the Hedgehog was an average 5-year-old, always into some sort of mischief. This day the little purple girl Hedgehog was looking through an old album (without her parents knowledge). She had vaguely heard that her father was very famous when he was younger. She saw in the album several old newspaper articles about things called Chaos and the Space Colony ARK. As she turned the page, she saw an old photograph of two young Hedgehogs by a lake. The girl Hedgehog was hugging the boy, who looked like he would rather be somewhere else! Little Katana thought the picture was funny. She wasn’t quite sure who the Hedgehogs in the picture were, but they looked a lot like her parents: Sonic the Hedgehog and Amy Rose Hedgehog! THE END
