How I claimed Amy Rose
A narrative through the eyes of Shadow the Hedgehog
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I sat there, still holding onto her hand, heart fluttering like mad.
Amy was still smiling at me and I realized just how hot my face had gotten.
I must have been blushing hard since Amy continued to giggle at me.
"A-anyway, you should rest, we've had a very.... Eventful day..." I said to her.
"Oh come on Shadow, it's barely lunch time!" she said with a smile.
"Y-yes, well, there is something I need to take care of, I will be back soon." I said to her.
Amy sighed and said, "Oh alright, but I'll hold you to that."
"I know..." I said as I got up and walked out.
Blaze rushed past me into Amy's room and apologized heavily. I went outside to get some air.
So...
This is what my life is now, huh?
I started off as this warrior that was prosecuted by the entirety of the human race.
Now
Now I'm in a... Relationship...
If you could even call it that.
With this girl that is so desperate for love.
But, is she really desperate?
Or, did she feel the need to love me because, she thought that I needed some affection?
Of did she feel the need to prove to me that I am truly alive? That I am not some weapon, that I am... A living being... That deserves to 'live'
As I walked out I came across a bridge and leaned up against one of the sides of it.
I just thought, what would I do then? Would I confess my love to her, even if I am capable of it? Or... Would I just say I'm in love to satisfy her need for affection?
How could I create such a lie as that. That's about as honorable as a stab to the back.
As I stared into the water that flowed under the bridge my mind began to wander into what it would be like to be with her.
She would want a nice wedding. The trouble is, without her parents, I wonder who would pay. I could certainly pay for everything and then some.
Then....
Oh Chaos...
She'll want kids...
I'm not sure I could handle smaller versions of me and her running around...
However... If we had a daughter... I guess I could convince Amy to name her-
Suddenly my attention was diverted to a reflection in the water. A blue reflection.
It better not be that fucking faker.
My head snapped at the direction of where that annoying blue blur would be and I point my finger at him, "Now listen here fake-!!!"
I instantly stopped as I realized that I wasn't pointing at the faker. It was another blue mobian. Someone I have never seen before.
She was an aqua blue furred cat with pinkish red eyes, somewhat frizzly blue hair with long bangs. She wore some rather dirty looking clothes; a purple sweater, black leggings, and black platform sneakers. She also had lip piercings and rather large ear piercings. She had a curvy body, just a little thick, and a long tail.
With a surprised look she responded, "I'm sorry, who?"
I quickly pulled my finger back and blushed hard. "I-I'm so sorry, I just.... Mistook you for someone I really hate... I-I'm...." I said as I wilted my ears, "I'm sorry for bursting out without even checking if you were him..."
She merely smirked and laughed, saying, "Well... Okay then..."
I looked down and said, "I'll just leave you to your duties then..." I turned around and began walking away.
"My duties? Hah! I do what I want! The name's Twinkle by the way..." she said as she laughed.
I paused and turned back, "I'm sorry what? You have duties but you don't attend to them? Or you don't have any to begin with?"
She responded with, "I don't have anything, I freely run and do whatever. It's great, y'know?"
"I don't really understand the concept. I have my duties, and I'm sure many others do... I protect the city... In spite of the fact that everyone still thinks that I am a weapon..."
She giggled a bit and said, "Hah, that's cute! I always say live like you're going to die young. Careless and free.." She then leaned back on one of the railings of the bridge.
"You speak rather cryptically. I'm immortal, so I can't like I'm going to die... In fact... That's one of my many curses...." I said as I looked down.
She laughs, "Who cares dude! Lighten up and just go crazy. Blow shit up, hit the club up, bang some babes, do whatever! I just.. travel alone though.." she said as she shrugged half heartedly.
I raised my brow, "First, you sound more rebellious than a free spirit. Two, blow shit up? Please, I do that on a daily basis and I don't have the cops on my ass. Three, what does 'hit up the club' even mean? Four, 'bang some babes'? And five... You seem a little too energetic to be traveling alone. You seem like the type that could attract a lot of long-term friends..."
"Well.. I do visit the club to try to make friends, but a lot of people shut me out and shoo me off for being the way I am.. I'd like to have friends, but I think I come off too strong sometimes." she said as she sighed.
"Perhaps, perhaps not. But trust me... It's not as bad as how people treat me. They have the tendency to think I'm a walking bomb that could go off at any second..." I paused. "And they're right..."
She looked at me and said, "You don't look that bad.. Usually I'm shoved out of city by city. So I walk alone and try to find a place to stay. So far so good here, but I could be being too optimistic!"
I looked back at her and said, "You don't think I look that bad?" I paused for a while, "You honestly don't know who I am, do you..." I said to her with my arms crossed.
"Nope, never met'cha or seen you. Sorry, dude!" She said with a rather up-beat voice.
I sighed a bit and said, "That's probably for the best... If anything you might consider me the greatest threat you have ever met..."
She shrugged and said, "Well, you haven't shooed me off or spat in my face, so I think otherwise."
I looked at her and said, "Why would I ever do that? I'm Shadow the Hedgehog... If I'm going to spit in someone's face, it would be for a good reason..."
She giggled and said, "Hah, I don't know.. Usually people don't like to get close to me. Nice to meetcha, Shadow!"
"You seem rather happy to meet someone like me..." I said as I looked at her with a cold expression.
She shrinks down a little and says, "I just like to meet new people considering how outcasted I am.." she sadly puts her hands in her pockets... "I'll leave, I can see you're bothered by me" and she starts to walk away.
"No! That's not what I meant!" I said as I reached out to her. "I-I just.... Usually... Whenever someone talks to me, it's either because they're a criminal trying to curse me, a cop trying to curse me, or just some fan girl trying to get a little too friendly... But..... The way you speak... You just.... Seem so normal compared to everyone I have met..." I am then reminded of Amy and how she speaks to me. She was so open when we barely knew each other. This girl is the same way...
She looks back and says, "Yeah? I'm just a troublemaker. I never have company so I just have to ride solo, unfortunately..."
"I know exactly what you mean... A lot of people call me an anti-hero... But I do my damn best... I've been alone for a very long time... Almost 60 years now... But..." I paused as I looked down.
"But what?" She asked, "I've been alone almost my entire life... Besides my.. parents.. But I don't like to think about them! I've been homeless the past few years, so I run around..."
I paused and thought to myself, 'Homeless? At her age? Damnit...' So I looked up and said, "But... I found someone special... And well.... If a monster like me could find someone special, then it should be 100 times easier for you..."
"Yeah, that just wouldn't happen.. I appreciate the enthusiasm.." she said as she shrugs and continues walking.
"You're willing to give up that easily?" I said to her.
"Yep! People don't like to get close to me, Shadow. Not like I have a chance.. If a 'monster' like you can grab a gal, then that's normal.. Chicks dig that shit, man. I know I do.." she said as she gives me a brief look back with an unusual face. Almost flirtatious in a sense. "But, I digress.. it's no use!"
I sigh heavily and say, "You talk so cryptically... Monsters like me grabbing 'chicks' all the time? I only just had my first kiss a yesterday-" I stopped myself immediately. Why am I sharing such an intimate detail with her? I barely know her!
"Yeah, lucky you.. I've lost so much.. I'm filthy."
I sighed again and said, "I've lost quite a bit too... I lost my creator, my home, the first person to ever give a shit about me...." my ear wilted as I thought back to Maria. "Maria" I quietly whispered to myself. "I even lost my faith in humanity and tried to destroy them all..."
"I lost my home, family, my first-everything. I've even fallen for the wrong guys who just abuse me.. It can't be helped with my body type..." she sighed deeply and I noticed how her breasts jiggled a bit. "Oh well.."
"I-I see... Well... I guess we're just two tragic stories lost to this world of madness and sin..." I said as I looked down. I begin to wonder what exactly is going on. Why am I connecting so easily with her?
She stopped when she heard me and began to walk toward me saying, "Yeah? You think so?"
"Yes of course... Why do you ask?" I asked nervously as she walked towards me. I couldn't help but notice how large her breasts were and how her hips complemented them. She had, as some might say, an 'hourglass' figure. In fact, I think hers were bigger than Amy's, in fact, they were. Wait, why did I just think that?! Why am I comparing her to Amy? This is so odd...
I backed up into one of the pillars and couldn't back up any further without breaking anything. She walked up in front of me and said, "Hmm.. You interest me Shadow.. Promise me you'll keep in touch?"
I blushed a bit and said, "U-uh... Sure... Not sure how people do such a thing these days. I do have a communicator and a phone..." Damnit... I just remembered I never got Amy's number. I'm going to get this stranger's number before Amy's. That's just so odd in so many ways.
"I don't have either.. remember..? Homeless..?" She said as she laughs half-heartedly with pain in her eyes. "Oh well. It's okay."
"W-wait..." I said. I reached into one of my cargo pockets and pulled out a spare wrist communicator. "I have a spare one. You could... Use it to call me if you need anything..." I said as I held it out. "Might I put it on your left wrist?"
She smiled at me and held out her wrist, saying,"How sweet. For a monster you're a pretty friendly one."
I blushed a bit as I put it on her wrist, "Well, you seemed like the kind of girl that needs a monster like me in her life..." Damnit... Why did that sound so... Personal?
She blushed and smiled at me again and said, "I couldn't agree more! Let's go out somewhere, eh?"
I blushed even harder and said, "Wait, right now?"
"Hell yeah!" She shouted as she grabbed my arm and ran off to the city with me.
"Hey whoa! Where are we even going?!" I shouted as she dragged me along. Damnit, what in the Hell would Amy think if she say me with this girl? But... Would she be mad at all? Would she think we're just friends? Oh Chaos I hope so.
"Where any wild girl like me can have fun!" She shouted as she continued to run and laugh all the while holding onto my hand really tightly.
"What kind of place might that be?" I shouted as I kept up with her.
"The junkyard!!" She said as she took off at a major speed, zipping through like a rocket, almost as fast I could run.
I was getting worried that others might see me in this situation, but we were going rather fast, so I didn't pay too much mind to it. But, what in the Hell could we do in the junk yard?
When we finally arrived she began to spastically run around the area. "Here we are!" She then picks up her rocket launcher and blowing up pile after pile.
I just stood there in awe at the destruction she was causing. "This doesn't seem very legal!" I shouted at her, but what hope could I have that she even heard me over the explosions. At the very least she was just blowing up trash piles. At the most she would be killing diseased rats and roaches.
She decided to toss her rocket to me. "Try it! The place is abandoned! You'll only find kids like me here, so be careful who you bump into."
"Be care who you bump into? Oh please... If you think those people are bad, then you know nothing about me..." I said as I aimed for the furthest pile. "See that pile all the way over there? I'm going to hit that dishwasher in one shot..."
She smirked and said, "Do it then!" she sat back and waited excitedly.
Should I even be doing something like this? Well, she is right in the fact that this place is abandoned, in fact, it's well away from the city limits. And I could always help if something bad goes wrong. Thankfully I'm well trained in every weapon known to man. I carefully aimed for the sweet spot to make sure that the rocket could fly true enough. I slowly pulled the trigger and fired it off. The rocket flew off for quite a while. Then a faint boom let me know that I hit my target. It happened to fly up rather high in the sky.
She cheered rather excitedly, "YEAH! Nice shot!" She then grabbed my arm, hugging it. "Badass right there"
I chuckled a bit and then realized that she was hugging my arm. I could even feel her breasts against my arm. They were so damn soft. I looked at her and blushed a bit, "Y-yea.... Badass..."
Still watching in awe she said, "Shoot something else!"
"A-alright... Hmm..." I looked around for my next target. I saw a few tires in a row that looked like they could have a rocket weaved through them with a mattress at the end. "kay, watch this..." I said as I fired another rocket. It went through all the tires and it blew up the mattress leaving a fiery mess.
She then hugged me tighter, slightly resting her head on my shoulder, "Wooo! That was awesome!!"
I looked down at her and blushed a bit, "U-uh... Thanks..."
Still smiling she looks up at me and says, "You're great with aiming"
"Well, I do have military training..." I said, then I realized just how close I was to her face. We were almost intimately close.
When she realizes how close we are, she freezes, standing there and looking into my eyes.
I wasn't sure what to do in this situation. The last time something like this happened, it was with Amy. And now.... It's with his girl I barely know...
With a look of confusion in her face, she slightly leaned in towards me, not even breaking eye contact.
Shit! What am I supposed to do?! I should move away, but at the same time, I don't want to hurt her feelings... Damnit, what is going on here?!
She hesitated for quite a bit before she simply kisses my nose softly. She then grabbed her rocket and resumed her rocket shooting while giggling.
I froze up heavily. She kissed me. Granted it was on the nose but.... It was still a kiss....
What is going on right now?
