Just a Dream

Chapter 29: Escape

Dawn and out of the foggy jungle, they had arrived to a safe town where when the villagers saw them they rushed and helped them. Filthy and tired they were taken to a cabin and attended although Seth had disappeared again. In the cabin there was one room and that was all they had. Still trying to keep them apart like any other mobian, Sonic refused and insisted they be together. Unsure, but induce by Sonic's confident, that they were better off together than separated; they allowed them to be in that room. Hopefully without supervision, Sonic wondered.

He closed the door to their new room and Amy fell on the bed. The room was all closed in, no windows, or anything that was an open view to the outdoors. He focused himself on Amy. She wore a brand new dress that was much like the one she wore before she came to Gemnissent. The dress reached her knees and she wore black tights under them. Her dress was a bright red which reminded her of home.

Sonic blinked at her but smiled. She looked so tired, yet so peaceful. Sonic walked over to her and sat beside her. "I still can't stop thinking about that dream."

"What did you see?"

"Some weird things." She groan and got up from lying on the bed. "Something unfamiliar but not exactly something I haven't seen before."

He raised one eyebrow. "What do you mean exactly?"

"Argh, it's hard to explain." She stated frustrated.

Sonic blew air to the side and flopped onto the bed on his back. "Well, whatever it was there's some kind of meaning to it." Amy looked over to him interested as he added, "You just need to figure out what."

Amy nodded and laid down aside him her back on the bed. "We've made it this far, huh?"

Sonic sighed and turned his head to her. "Yea with your help."

"And yours." She replied back.

A moment of silence kicked it, but it wasn't an awkward one, but more of one that kept them calm and relaxed. Amy could feel his tired energy, and she was tired herself. They had been traveling for a while, been in Gemnissent for more than a month and still it was rough to even reach Yubala's castle. They had been so far.

"You know," Sonic began. "You're still my ex- enemy."

"Ex?" She halfhearted chuckled. Sonic smiled and turned to her getting up from his position and crawling on top of her. Amy's eyes widened, but she didn't move. He smirked at her and placed his hands on each side of her shoulder. "Meaning I see you differently now."

His husk voice angered her that even after their little argument about how he felt about her was cleared he was still acting as if he saw her more as a friend, but as a lover. Amy growled and pushed him off. She got up and got into a fighting position. "Get away from me you fake, son of a motherless goat!" she snapped. Sonic's eyes widened in a perplex state. Amy fixed herself when Sonic didn't move and huffed at him. "I don't want any problems now!"

A knock was heard at the door. "Is everything okay in there?"

As Sonic had predicted, the people were watching. They were watching their every move and sound. Sonic skeptically looked at the door and shouted, "We're fine!"

Amy didn't bother she walked to the other side of the room and sat on a chair that was placed in the corner. Sonic's features didn't change when he looked back at Amy. "Are you still mad at me?"

"Who wouldn't be!" she snarled sticking her tongue out.

"Why?"

"If you can't seem to figure it out then you're far more stupid than I thought you were." She shamelessly insulted him.
