Silver Rings
Chapter 2
Hey everyone! I'm back! Sorry to keep you waiting though. Enjoy part two!!!
"Where in the world am I?" Sonic wondered as he sprinted trough the forest. The last he remembered was that he just beaten one of Eggmans mechs, then the Tornado coming down and, boom! He woke up sitting there in the middle nowhere. It was true that he had went all over the planet, but this place seemed totally unfamiliar.
The blue hedgehog spotted a higher hill, where he could see more at once. He saw trees and high rocks in a valley surrounded by hills, cut in half by a river starting with an imposing cascade. The view was quite impressive. "Well, I guess I can just chill here for a while. Sonic said in his mind. Maybe even get some sleep. I didn't quite slept last night".
Sonic sat under a big oak wich was there on the hill top, and closed his eyes.
In his dream, Sonic was in Dc. Eggman' lab. He was writing something on his computer and mumbled to himself.
"Well, it seems like my energy wave scheme worked even better than I thought it would. I was just focusing on the Tornado, but now Sonic is gone too. Strange. The sensors picked up a strangely high amount of energy. Could it be a Chaos Emerald? No... The energy waves are quite different. Then... "
The egg shaped doctor continued to mumble stuff that Sonic couldn't understand entirely. But at one point :
" Presto! I got it! I can harvest the leftover enery from the air on a 10 kilometers area and power up my robot army! Now that Sonic is missing, I can start an invasion!"
No... I won't let that happen. Sonic dashed out of Eggmans base, to his house, to warn his friends. But they were not there. He spotted the Tornado on the sky through the window. He ran outside and shouted at them but nothing came out. Panicked, Sonic ran back in the house and looked around in an effort to calm down. The cobalt blue hedgehog spotted a small note on the coffee table. He picked it up. It had Amy 's handwriting on it:
"We are going to Angel Island to ask for Sonic. We'll be back in about two hours. Love, Amy Rose"
Great. His friends were going at Knuckles's place to ask for him, Eggman was going to start an invasion and it was... "
... All your fault". He freezed. It can't be... that voice . "You're friends are going to die, the world will fall in despair, all because of you. You made a terrible mistake by keeping that ring close to you. It will be the one that will end your life." No, it's just trying to get in my head... "What kind of hero are you? Doing nothing when the world needs you?" No... "Holding on to a shiny trinket your mommy gave you? Your just a baby " Stop... "A failure" Just... "A dis-..." Go away! Sonic shouted, with his voice back. His vision blacked and all went quiet.
Elsewhere :
"Oh, come on, I'm shure you can do it!" the navy blue hedgehog said. "It's not that dangerous"
"Please, Zecro, you know I can't." his sister replied. "It will stop the flow of water!"
"But it is the perfect testing ground for your limits Chyra!"
Chyra sighted. Since she told her brother that she would like to test her limits one day she didn't seriously mean it. But Zecro would even go through fire, wich he was most afraid of, to grant her wish. They only had each other, and because she was the little sister, she had some "priorities", like Zecro was calling it. She was not a baby, she was 18 now. Not to understand that wrong, he cared for her safety and he was pretty organized, but Zecro was a little bit over carrying about her wishes, especially after they had started to live a better life.
"Fine, I'll try" she puffed.
"Great!" Zecro smiled glad that he finally convinced her.
The ice blue hedgehog raised her hand and focused. The water started to freeze and the ice spread over the river in the entire valley. It stopped at the little tunnel in the opposite side and the frost came back to Chyra, in her opened palm.
On the right side of the river, under an oak, a cobalt blue hedgehog was starring at it in shock.
Back at the waterfall top, Zecro was cheering her.
"See it wasn't that hard, was it?" "I do feel a bit dizzy" Chyra said. "Maybe I used to much of it at once?"
"Hey, you did it, it's all that matters." Her brother smiled at her. Chyra was about to smile back, but she took a step back to balance herself but she was too close to the ledge so she tripped over it and fell with in the void with a scream that filled the entire valley. Her navy blue brother managed to catch her hand but he couldn't lift her. Thoughts were rolling trough Chyra's mind. What if Zecro will drop her because she was heavy, what if they're both going to fall, what are they going to do then?
It was a life to death situation. Where could she get help, there, in the middle of wilderness. It is hopeless... "Need a hand?"... Or maybe not. Someone else grabbed her other hand and pulled her out. Chyra laid there on her stomach trying to calm her breath. "You guys OK?" The other one asked. "Yes, thank goodness for your help" Zecro replied. "Anytime!". Curious, Chyra raised her head to see a cobalt blue hedgehog, laying on his knees in front of her.
"I'm Zecro. This is my sister, Chyra. What's your name?" Zecro asked, clearly as curious as she was.
"My name is Sonic. Sonic the Hedgehog."
