The Beginning of Trust (story 2 of ,To End It All)

Old Friends

Sonic looked around for any clue of the fox. He noticed a little blood trail leading into the woods. He began following it over rocks and stumps. All a sudden it stopped he looked around again for any clue of something but there was nothing. Something rustled in the bushes. Sonic went into defense mode. The bushes continued to rustle. Sonic was about walk over when an old friend walked out. "Oh Sonic I didn't expect to see you here." Amy looked at him with a smile. Sonic had an awkward moment. "Oh....hey Amy." Sonic looked around and back at Amy. "Have you seen Tails?" Sonic asked worriedly. Amy put her acting skills to the test. "Yah I did actually." Amy said making a questioningly look. Sonic gave a look like expecting her to say where. "Okay where is he then?" Sonic said getting annoyed by the pink hedgehog's presence. "He ran off that way." She said pointing. "He said he was running away from someone or something, I can't quite remember." She tried not to smile. Sonic got worried again. "why would he leave me?!" Sonic thought to himself. Something wasn't adding up with what Amy said. "Well do you want to help me find him?" Sonic said rather forcefully. "Yah of course!" She said a little more enthusiasticly then perhaps needed. Sonic walked along the woods looking, Amy following close behind. "So Sonic how is life been since the last time we saw each other?" Sonic was trying to avoid as much conversation as possible. "Uh good." He said. Sonic picked up his pace. He noticed Amy hadn't said anything more. He was fine with that though. He looked at the green trees towering around him. "Where would Tails have gone back to?" Sonic had to bring back the painful memories. The times he thought he lost Tails. The pain was very numbing to his soul. He really didn't want to think of these past memories. He remembered the time Tails talked to him by that warm fire. The words that changed their lives in many ways, a promise. Those words were like a promise. Tails had almost died that day and he cried his soul out. The love of his life.... He thought was gone. He had tears running down his face. He had stopped abruptly. Amy looked around. "Guess I'll gather some wood and we can build a fire?" She said questioning expecting no answer. She walked off. He sat down, putting his head in his hands. He continued to search his memory. The water fall, the plane, the cliffside. Where would Tails go back too. The hedgehog's head hurt. He tried wrapping his mind around the fact that his love was out there somewhere running away from him.....again. "why the hell would he do that though?" Sonic knew Tails wouldn't do it. He loved Sonic to much, at least that was what Sonic thought. Sonic let the tears fall to the ground, wetting the ground with little splatters. "Tails.....what did I do wrong?" Sonic said wispering to himself. He noticed Amy was taking longer than she said. He got up rubbing his eyes. "Better go see what's taking her so long." He said following where the pink hedgehog had gone.
