Flirting With Disaster

Hero

I had been waiting and watching Metal patrol for maybe a couple of minutes when there was a loud crash.

"Metal." I called to him.

He looked at me right as Sonic dashed in.

His attention was immediately grabbed.

"Metal!" I called to him louder this time.

He looked back at me for a moment and then back at Sonic. 

He beeped. 

Sonic just stared. 

"Sonic. Remember what we talked about." I told him.

"I know. It's just.. Amy. We aren't really stealing Metal Sonic. Are we?" Sonic frowned.

Metal looked at me in shock and honked.

I glared. "I told you that I wasn't going to let you stay here. It's not right." 

Metal stormed up to my cage and honked.

I crossed my arms. "You can't really want to stay here. I mean think about it. You could be free. Never have to hide your personality again."

Metal looked away. 

"Don't you want to be happy?" I asked him.

He looked at me and then he looked at Sonic.

"I know. You want to be real. Which. You already are. You play. You have fun. I mean sure you're not Sonic but.. You're still a person." I told him softly.

He stared at me for a long moment and then he unlocked my cage.

I jumped out and hugged him.

"Thankyou Metal! Now come on!" I told him earnestly before getting off of him and grabbing one of his hands.

He stared at me for a long moment and then stood up and beeped.

"I know. It'll be okay though. You'll be free. You can become your own person and it'll be fun." I told him with a smile.

He looked at me and then he gently squeezed my hand and beeped.

"Yeah! That's the spirit. Now let's get out of here." I said happily before turning to Sonic who was staring.

And then I remembered something.

"Say. Metal. Where's your tablet and your uno? Don't you want to bring your belongings?" I asked him.

He clasped his hands together and stared at me.

I chuckled. "Go on. Go get your stuff. Bring it to the entrance."

I watched as he blasted off with a giggle.

"So.. You and Metal are friends?" Sonic questioned.

I nodded. "He's adorable."

Sonic huffed and then we went to the entrance where Metal had dropped a Tablet, Uno and a old Eggman plushie.

Sonic snorted. "Seriously? Eggman has a plushie?"

I smacked Sonic. "Don't make fun of him. This is probably all he has."

Sonic sighed. He knew I was right.

Which was when Metal appeared and placed down a coloring book.

I squealed. "Awwwee! You like coloring too!?" 

Metal nodded and I almost hugged him again but held myself back.

Metal was just the cutest!

"Okay gang. Let's go!" I said before heading off.
