The Change Book I & II

A

The lights of the Resistance Main Room flickered every time someone entered. It was constant and although it didn't bother Amy too much, it was still a scary sight.

It was late, everyone was sleeping quietly but Amy needs to finish her work. Even more now when the rumors that have spread that Eggman was back with a new weapon that could destroy the world.

She looked over files just to see if she could find any clues that might lead her to Eggman's whereabouts.

She pulled out some old files of her and something caught her attention.

The files she wrote about Maria.

Not one knew about these files but Amy, not even Shadow. She decided to open them and read them once again to reminiscent.

The subject of Maria the Hedgehog was found in a hypersleep state in an old military base. Dr.Gerald Robonitk infused the Memories of Maria Robotnik into his creation with the means that her granddaughter will live on despite her illness.

The military base contained biological weapons of great power. Contact with them is completely prohibited.

"Amy?"

Amy closed the file and hit it under files of paper. She turned her chair and saw Maria coming out of the darkness into the small light that was emitting from Amy's desk lamp.

"What are you doing here so late?" She asked again.

"Just working, I am a bit paranoid about those rumors of Eggman, you know how I am." She turned her chair again and Maria instantly went next to her desk trying to read off the files she had.

One file caught her attention.

It was a file with the name of Maria in it.

"You keep a file on me?" Maria asked as she picked up the file but Amy swiped it off her hands. "I am not surprised, you have a file on every one of us."

"Yes, and things like these are private."

Maria wasn't offended, she knew that Amy was very protective of her files. Especially hers.

"Did you ever ... tell Shadow?" Maria asked, afraid of what the pink one might answer.

"Please Maria...stay! Shadow needs you!" Amy was outside of the Resistance HQ, trying to stop Maria from leaving.

"Now that I am finally free you want me to stay at the Resistance? I don't even remember Shadow that well ..."

"Please ... I beg you ... I've never seen him so happy before ... if you leave... I don't know if he will be the same."

"No...and I will never tell him."

Maria sighed in relief, she new Amy protected that file because if Shadow were to read it...it would break him.

"Thank you."

Although Amy and Sonic tried to keep their relationship on the low, everyone on the Resistance already knew.

It was just a matter of time for them to be open about it.

"Wow, it was about time they got together." Silver told Shadow as they watch the pink and blue one. "True love always prevails uh?"

"True love? They just started dating out of nowhere, I don't see how that's true love." Shadow took an angry bite out of his burger and ate intensely.
