PoV: Sonic

  Time passed slower than sand in an hour glass. I didn't have work today, unfortunately the others were aware.

"Sonic," Amy grabbed my injured arm and attempted to pull me, "You've missed a lot of school, let's have a study group."

"No, I'm fine. I still have a B minus," I replied, "It's enough to pass."

"That's no good Sonic!" She yelled directly into my ear, "You need to lift your grade higher if you want to graduate."

"Amy he won't come with us, he never does," Rouge sighed, "Just give up."

"I know how to make him come with us," Knuckles spoke, good luck, not even chillidogs are appealing anymore.

  Knuckles grinned as he stared at me. He would simply attempt to bribe me food that made me sick, or something I didn't need. He walked up to me and kept that stupid smile on his face.

"I'm not interested," I said.

"You don't have a choice."

"HEY!" I pushed away when he grabbed me, "LET ME GO!!" I felt myself lifted off the ground and Knuckles's ridiculously powerful grip kept me from getting away, "PUT ME DOWN!!!"

"No, you need to get your grade up," he held me in one arm like I was a fucking football.

"That's one way to get him to come with us," Rouge laughed.

  They dragged me into one of the sound proof privet study room in the library. Not on that but Knuckles locked the stupid door and put the key to high for me to reach it.

"Now you have to study with us," Knuckle put me down in a chair and Amy, who grabbed my bag, put it down next to us.

"Sonic, you shouldn't run away from us," Amy grabbed me, I looked around. There were no windows around here, I couldn't see how low the sun was. I grabbed my phone to check when sunset would be and Knuckles took it from me.

"You not getting distracted," he said.

  No... I'm going to kill all of them... It's going to be my fault... I couldn't stop the images in my brain. Tails laying again bloody glass with his intestines partly eaten. Rouge missing her jaw and parts of her body missing. Amy with her head bashed in and bleeding out as her back was torn open. Knuckles on the floor, missing and arm and his neck ripped apart.

"Sonic! SONIC!!!"

  My heart practicly stopped when Amy yelled, "... ... what..."

"Is the answer seriously that hard for you to find?" She looked at annoyed with me. I hadn't realized they opened my text book for me.

"I need to go..." I got up an Knuckles force me back into the wooden seat at the long table.

"Sonic," Tails looked at me with those pleading eye.

  Damn it... don't do this to me...

"Tails I need to go, if I stay any longer-"

"Do not like us anymore," he looked like he was about to cry.

"That's not the reason at all. Of course I like you, I just want to get home before dark. It's dangerous at night with people going missing-"

"Then spend the night with us. We can keep studying and you won't be out at night," Tails was trying so hard to keep me besides him.

"I really shouldn't-"

"What's you excuse?" They glared at me.

  That you all might die... What's going on... I felt dizzy all of a sudden.

"... I... just..."

"Sonic!"

  ... ...

  ... ... ...

  ... Where am I? My head ached. The light hurt my eyes as I looked around. I felt something in my hand, I opened my palm to see a ring.

  Crap! I turned to the bucket and I hit a wall. This wasn't my room!  I didn't have a bucket here! The urge to vomit was starting to become unbearable. I found the bathroom, locked the door and threw up into the toilet. Where am I? My eyes grew teary the pain was worse than it normally was. Exe... how many people did you kill?

"Sonic?" I heard someone behind the door when I finished puking, "Are you awake?"

"... ... mh," I flushed the toilet and cleaned it up. I rinsed my mouth and sprayed a can of air freshener all over the room.

  Click! The door open and Rouge came in with butter knife.

"Poor thing, did you throw up again?" She rubbed my back and put toothpastes onto a toothbrush, "Open."

"Huh- aa..." she started brushing my teeth for me and made me hold still.

"There," she let me go when she finished.

  Why did she do that? I do see my mouth again and Rouge pulled me to the bed.

"What... are you doing?" I asked, I didn't understand what was happening.

"Relax," she laid me in bed and covered me with am the blanket, "You in my apartment since it's the closest one. The others are asleep on the living room floor. Let me get you some water."

"No... Thank you..." I groaned, "... I think... I should go..."

"You're way too weak to leave. Sleep for a while."

"Huh?" I didn't get it, why was Rouge suddenly leaving over me?

"Here," she laid over me, "You should stay warm."

"W-won't Knuckles... be mad if he sees you... alone with-"

"Don't worry about that," she put a finger to my lips, "He trusts us just fine. You need Some personal care."

"... N-no. I don't... need anyone to take care of me."

"Everyone does, now shh," she pulled the blanket over the both of us. I hadn't noticed that I was completely naked. My clothes! Don't tell me they're in her kitchen sink. Please don't...

"W-wait... I need to go grab something-"

"Too late," she pinned my hands, "I'll take good care of you."
