Chapter 4 Surprise From The Darkness

Two weeks have passed since the trio's arrival..

Cream and Amy were sitting in her temporary room where she stayed, in the Southern Kingdom. They were giggling and laughing for they haven't seen each other for about four years.

"So you have taking a liking to a knight hm?" Amy said smirking.

"Yes, his names is Miles, he likes to be addressed as Tails though." She said blushing and giggling.

"Is he smart?! Is he cute?! Is he sweet?!" Amy flooded the atmosphere with questions.

"He invented almost all of our outrageously technical items and objects we have!!" She said beaming with light. "He is the most handsome fox I've ever seen!! And he is the kindest being known in our kingdom."

"Sounds like you have your heart set on thy haven't you?" Amy said looking at her best friend.

Cream's face saddened as she gently held a locket. It was engraved with the words 'Tails and Cream' on the front.

"What's wrong, my dear?" Amy said with worry some eyes as she placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Father sent him with his best knights to a battle overseas, to settle a long war between us and the tribes that live their." She said as a tear trickled down her small muzzle.

"Aww, he'll be back soon, I promise." Amy said with a warm smile.

Two knocks were heard from the open door. They both looked up to see Espio and Knuckles smiling at the two girls.

"May we come in?" Espio said with his hands behind his back with a straightened posture.

Amy and Cream smiled as the two princes stepped forth.

"We overheard your conversation with Miles, he is to be home in three weeks. So don't fret it my dear Cream." Knuckles said sitting next to Cream on the huge, luxurious bed.

Espio sat next to Amy, "and Amy.. Please don't tell our father and mother we were here.." His eyes full of concern.

"Indeed. We shouldn't be worrying about that though!!" Amy said resting her head on the prince Espio's shoulder, exhausted because she didn't sleep well the night before. "My ball is in two days!!"

"Indeed princess, I'm aware of your birthday celebration." Espio said smiling with a handsome smile.

"Which reminds me!! Cream we still haven't seen our dresses!!" Amy said jumping up from her seat on the bed. "We must go to the tailors to see if they need anything!!"

Cream nodded and quickly walked with Amy out of the room

Espio looked at Knuckles while a small smirk appeared on his lips,

"That's good ol' Amy for you."

Knuckles smiled while nodding, "yes, but she definitely has changed in the few years that separated us."

Espio turned to Knuckles with a look of mischievous across his face, "what kind of changes?.." He said with an evil smirk upon his face.

"Um.. Ugh.. Nothing.. Nothing like inappropriate.. If that's what you meant.." Knuckles said panicky as he pulled on his silk band around his neck.

"Mhmm, that's what I thought." Espio said smiling. "I've also noticed the changes also.. She's definitely a young woman now." He patted Knuckles on the back like he usually does after teasing him.

"You can say that again... She's ... She's beautiful.." Knuckles muttered out as his eyes gazed off into space.

"Knuckles?" Espio said concerned." You know the fifth law governing the Northern Kingdom and the Southern Kingdom.. We aren't suppose to be in love or in contact with royalty of the separate kingdoms.."
