Sonic's POV:

Train to Taormina, Italy | 10:40 am 

As the sounds of the train's engine ring across my ear, the memories of last night's events kept lingering in my mind. My mother's impulse of asking me if I hate her again, the surprising visit of Violet, and Tails' confirmation that we somehow secured the document. I stared outside the window, legs crossed and my cheek resting on my hand, appreciating a bit of the scent of lavender inside our private passenger car. The view outside was incredible, tree's covered the vast lands, and a large lake in the middle of it. It was beautiful... but it still couldn't help me keep my mind off of what Tails said yesterday.

"Actually, we already got the documents." Tails said.

....

I sighed and looked away from the window, and closed my eyes, hoping that I could catch up some sleep for a few hours. Just then, I suddenly felt something heavy, lightly land on my right shoulder. I quickly opened my eyes and glanced at Amy before letting out a small chuckle, "Why do you look so tired, pink turkey?" Of course, she wasn't able to answer because she was still asleep. And somehow, I found myself in this situation again. It wasn't uncomfortable now, since we already did a lot of things--

I immediately felt my face get hot when I remembered that we have been holding hands and hugging each other like we're in a relationship for the past few days. 

I quickly shook my head and reprimanded myself, "Cut it out Sonic! You're not usually like this!" I muttered to myself as I slapped both of my cheeks lightly before I loudly sighed. I looked at her again and used my hand to support her head so that she won't fall or maybe bump her head into the hard part of the seat. And when I did, I panicked for a second when she responded with a groan as she 'fixed' her head's position again on my shoulder. I smiled, "Sorry." Time went by quickly, and it was already lunchtime. A butler approached me with a smile, carrying a tray of food for us. I nodded and quietly instructed him to just put it on our table, once he was done putting and arranging our food on the table, he bowed first before leaving. "Violet, you can have my food instead," I said, but only enough for Violet to hear at the back. "But what about you, Sir?" Violet asked, swiftly appearing at the sides of our seats. I shook my head as I gave them a small smile, "Thanks, but I'm not hungry." Violet was hesitant at first, but as I have expected, they cannot resist my orders and quietly took my plate on the table before hiding again.

As soon as Violet disappeared again, I sighed before I looked out at the window again. The view slightly changed, and we're now a bit farther away from the large lake. My eyes landed at the hotel we stayed at for a couple of days in Cortina d' Ampezzo, and me seeing it, the events that happened yesterday that I tried so hard to avoid made me think of it again. 

"Actually, we already got the documents." Tails said.

...

"What?!" I exclaimed. I felt my heartbeat get faster as my entire body froze in shock, "The-then did you see what's inside those documents?!" But instead of hearing an answer right away from him, he just went silent and even stopped typing on his computer. I gulped and thought, "Why is he quiet all of a sudden?" Earlier, the room was filled with my voice and Tails'... but now the whole room fell into silence, and I could quickly feel a sudden wave of angst wash over me. I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth, unaware that by clenching my fists, my nails were pricking my skin, causing red and painful marks on my hand. So all this time, we're the losers of this fucking game of the enemy organization. And while we're busting our asses off just to learn the truth of my Aunt's murder, in truth, they were just making us go circles in the end? So... is this finally the end?
