SonAmy: Creature of the Forest

Chapter 09

The sun was starting to set down and Shadow had to rest but he was being too stubborn that he wants to get up and do some other things rather than having a friend keep an eye on him.

"Shadow you need to rest" Nebula pleaded him to get down.

"I want a rematch with him!" Shadow snarled.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! There's no way you're fighting him again. He's very persistent" Nebula pushed him back down, "Fighting alone won't do anything"

"Fine" Shadow muttered. He turned on his back to let Nebula massage him, "I haven't seen you anywhere in the village. What exactly do you do?" he asked.

"I usually wander around in the forest, I am not very social of me but when it comes to injured fellow natives I got to help them" Nebula said. She was massaging between his shoulder-blades.

"Nice, and I saw that you can become a raven" Shadow said.

"Yup. I'm a shape-shifter too. And I see you can shape-shift into a horse" Nebula said.

"Yup, each shape-shifter has a mark to tell which animal they transform into. Sonic is wolf and Silver is deer for example. I was raised with them like brothers" Shadow said.

"I've noticed. You're basically the oldest of them" Nebula guessed.

"Sonic's my age and Silver is a year younger" Shadow said.

"Mmhmm. Though I have to admit that you play the big brother role among them" Nebula said.

"Yup" Shadow said.

"But now you need rest. You need to recover your strength now" Nebula stops massaging him and puts a blanket on him.

Shadow sighs in defeat, "Very well"

At Scourge's castle

The green king was thinking again in his bedroom at the balcony. He was starting to think of what Rosy said to him.

"Maybe she is right. I need to stop looking out for Amy. I give up letting my troopers looking for her. But if the wolf has eaten her it is worthless looking for her" He said to himself when the doors burst open.

"Your majesty, I know where Amy is" It was Crimson who has returned.

"You do? Great, is she alive?" Scourge asked.

"Yes and she is one of the natives as well" Crimson said.

Scourge was shocked to hear that she's one of the natives now.

"She is! Then why didn't you bring her back?!" Scourge asked angrily.

"That blue hedgehog is the blue wolf and he knocked me into a river, but I managed to let one of his pals die in a meadow" Crimson said.

"Good, but now I need time to think of a new plan" Scourge paces around the room.

"You're not gonna give up on her aren't you my king?" Crimson asked.

"No, we need to kill the natives. But if you say that the wolf is a shapeshifter, we can't get her back" Scourge's speech changes to a negative one.

"And why not? I'm strong enough to beat that wolf's ass easily" Crimson said.

"You did, is he dead?" Scourge asked.

"I may not have killed him, but I broke his and the black one's spirits" Crimson said.

"I see. Well, you're gonna need to rest here before you go off in the forest again. I know you're strong and tough but rest is the need to gain energy" Scourge said.
