{Sonic} A Medieval Story

Renegade Rendezvous

~Flashback~ 

Amy slowly opens her eyes and rubs them. She gets out of her bed, heading to a large barrel near the entrance. Pulling out a rusted cup, she fills it with water from the barrel.

She heads to a different room and starts to hear a deadly cough. Amy smiles as she enters the room, "I got your water, mother." Amy's mother, who was pale and drenched in sweat, weakly turns over to look at her. "Amelia..."

Amy quickly gives her the drink and helps her drink it down. Her mom smiles and slowly closes her eyes, falling fast asleep. "Oh, mom..."

Amy leaves the room and starts hearing the sound of someone shuffling outside of her house. She starts shaking but, makes her way to a chest near the exit. 

Before she was able to open it, Amy's father burst inside, making her jump. She gasps, "Father!" She runs up to hug him but, he tightly grips her shoulders, looking into her eyes with fear, "Amelia...oh, God." 

Amy frowns, "Father, you're bleeding." She says in fear as she stares at the cut on his chest. "Amelia, where is your mother?" "She's in the room asleep, as always." He nods and starts putting a bunch of food in a burlap sack. "Father, what's happening? Why are you packing all of our food? Why are you bleeding?!" "Amelia, I can not explain right now. Get everything you need to move out. We are leaving, immediately! Do you understand?!" She nods sadly, "Yes, sir." He nods and they start packing together."

Her father rushes to where her mother was, then he calls out to her, "Amelia, help me with your mother! Amelia, now!" She starts making her way to him and sighs, "Father, she is not ready to move around." "Just help me get her to the horse. Please, listen to your father." Her ears droop, "Yes, sir." 

He smiles at her, "Hey," She looks up at him and he reaches into his shirt, pulling out a necklace with a large red stone. He places it around her neck and kisses her forehead, "Happy birthday, Amelia." Amy's eyes start watering and she hugs him, "I missed you..." He hugs her back, tearing up himself, "I missed you too, Amelia. I'm sorry but, we have to move now. Come on."

~Present time~

"Father..." Amy says in her sleep. "Great, she's seeing dead people!" She hears Blaze say. "Or she could be dreaming?" Cream says. "Or maybe she's slipping into her death! I mean you sold us out, why wouldn't you try to kill us next?" Rouge says with a scoff. "Lay off her, Rouge," Shade says, "This isn't Cream's fault."

Rouge scoffs, "Like hell, it isn't. Had she not exposed the truth about the crown, we would be far away from this place, coming up with a new plan, and Amy would not have been injured." "Or, they would've blamed the theft on us, claiming we were conspiring with Merek. We look suspicious enough coming out of nowhere, and apparently being located in a kingdom near him. Cream made the right call." Amy says slowly sitting up. 

Cream grabs her hand, "Amy, are you okay? I'm so sorry." Amy smiles at her, "For what?" "I...well..." Rouge frowns, putting her hands on her hips, "You know I was getting down on Cream about what happened earlier, but you're just as much to blame. You wanna explain that little display with the prince?" Amy scoffs, "I was acting as a distraction. It got you in the kitchen, did it not?"
