A Shadow of a Rose

Chapter Fourty Three- Flickering Candle

(Blaze's POV)

"Amy! fight it!" I scream.

"She's already lost, Princess..." the controlled Amy smiles.

Zovaal has taken over her mind.

She's completely lost.

Blaze... you failed..

"I hope you don't have plans, because i would hate for you to miss anything important~" Amy Coos.

"You don't mean that..." I growl.

She snickers.

"Of course I don't.." she laughs. "And here I thought You Cat folk were smart.."

I lunge forward at her, my hands inflamed with rage.

"Strike me, I dare you..." she smiles. "You'll only kill your beloved friend.."

Amy laughs, Zovaals voice the only thing I can hear.

I pause and try to not let the rage consume me.

Key word, Try..

I feel every vain in my body itching for the feeling of revenge..

"Blaze.. did anyone tell you about what happened to Your beloved Silver?" She asks with a sarcastic tone.

I look up and act as if I'm paying attention.

"Silver didn't survive the battle between him and Sonic..." she makes some fake crying noises."oh how sad. He was such a pure thing.."

"ENOUGH! I GET WHAT YOUR TRYING TO DO!" I yell on the top of my lungs.

I lunge forward again, this time with the intent of actually landing a blow.

"Oh? You don't want your friends help?" She asks. "What a shame.. you might want their assistance~"

Balls of fire form from my fingertips, flying towards Amy at alarming speeds.

She doesn't try and dodge them, but she does reflect some back at me.

"What? You a Coward, too scared to fight a women?!" I yell.

Amy's teeth clench.

She raises her hand, emiting a dark energy like ball, similar to what Sonic can do.

The ball radiates to a violet colour as she whips it at me.

My body turns a bright red, and a Shield made of fire emerges from my fur.

Not a single burn mark.

"Oh Ho~?" She says.

"Flameblast!" I cry.

Remnants of flame circle Amy then collide into her face.

She laughs.

I clench my jaw and throw a couple more Moves at her.

I run towards her and she freezes as I grab hold of her neck.

My hand bursts into flames, burning off her fur.

She screams in agony.

"Zovaal! LET HER GO!" I scream.

Amy's face begins to cry.

"H...He..Help... M-me..."

"Mas...Master..."

She drops to the ground, charred to ashes.
