Chapter 4

"This is the same room as the one in his base!!" I cried as we stepped out , and turned to Orbot "seriously! What does he want with me?! I'm tired of sitting and waiting! Knowing Eggman he's probably panning something! So what is it!"

Orbot simply stared at me calmly "I don't know sonic, I really don't know but know this:you haven't eaten much, been kept in he dark about everything, ....as time goes by, you get worse, your side of your head is bleeding from where that bolt hit you" he motioned his hand up to it "if I were you I wouldn't worry about that first"

He moved farward once more,towards the cells farthest away from us.the ones that looked like the ones me and Alister were in before.

When we were in he gave us another sympathetic look "if I knew I would tell you right away, I really would I'm sorry, have a good day"

He left that, I sighed and turned to Alister who was in the cell next to me.

"...the side of your head is bleeding ya know." He said

I rolled my eyes. " if I'm not dying from it, I'm fine probably not that bad anyway" I moved to sit on the bench, rubbing my face in my hands and over my quills. " I just wish this was over, I really do. In fact, I wish this wasn't happening it's too unbelievable and unreal" I looked bsck up at Alister. "You know it's been only a day" I laughed and shook my head "and it's not even over"

"You're letting it get to your head"

"I KNOW THAT" I bellowed the rage I was trying to hold in finally boiling in as I shut up from my seat."BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I CANT HELP IT"

I began pacing in a circle fervisly. "You have no idea how hard this is for me. to just sit there. And do nothing. I'm sleeping too much, eating too little, I havent seen any of my friends in weeks.ive been treated like a dirt this entire time, I haven't seen any sunlight for so long, there's been an battle happening that im not in ,I'm used to moving, helping, and you know what? I'm not doing that!! I can't run, I can't fight because of chains!" I held my arms up to show Alister the cuffs "chains! After anything that could holding me back! Isn't that ridiculous?!Me, sonic the hedgehog sitting on the side lines, while my friends are risking their lives!!theyre fighting cause of me!!Becsuse I'm not there!And-And... I'm sitting there hopping they'd make it out okay..."

"It's manddeting!"I Finnaly stoped pacing and faced a wall hugging slightly. "I'm cut off fro everything like Orbot said I don't know how I'll get out..or how. I can arleady hear what they say when I'm free. They'll blame me all for this I just know it" I shook my head sadly, dropping my voice Finnaly "I just know it"

".......are ya done now?"

I turned to him,not expecting him to say that, seeing him lean against with an amused smirk and crossed arms.

"...uh..yeah"I heard my self say that and then I sighed "yeah .. I guess I am"

He nodded"you know I keep forgetting how really young you are really compared to me, your only 16 and carry the hopes and dreams of the world on your shoulder,something I bet no real man could do. You've done a lot more for the whole than most people"his expression was a kind sadness."so your right I woudnt know how you feel right now. Not one bit. But I know this"he pushed himself upright "you've done a lot more for this world than we could even repay you for. Even if there is people out there who think it's your fault. Screw them.they try how you do see how far it gets them"

"Plus I'm sure your friends will stick with you,they would be more than happy to have you back. im sure.just keep doing what you have been doing sonic. It'll turn out Arlight in the end , after all you are the hero, and deserve a lot more than they give you" he finished his speech wit a smile and a nod.

I smiled back trying to hide the unexpected heat that came to my face "Er....thanks"

"Touching" a voice said suddenly making us both look over.

Zavok stood there with crossed arms abd an evil smirk on his face, "very touching it's sad to see how long friendships last" he walks to Alisters cage and opens it. "Your comming with me, the both of you....it's time"

My cell door opened aswell I stared at him with confusion.

His grin turned sly "Eggman wants you to have a front row seat and watching" he grasped my chains and pushed me out roughly which made me trip slightly. Zavok continued to walk nonetheless "this is your punishment ,sonic, for directly insulting Eggman, will be to watch him die"

The world spun in darkness for a second, I looked over at Alister. Who's face was set stony and expressionless. I thought back what he had told me about his wife and his kids. They'd be wondering where he is, why he hasn't shown. And they found out what happened, they'd be devastated they woudnt know what to do.

And what's he's arleady done for me...I thought. it dosent seem like much, but it's enough to know that he doesn't deserve to die! Anger filled me, he dosent deserve it and he won't.

With all my might I planted my feet firmly into the ground. The chains zavok held tripped from his fingers.

Yes!!

"Hey!" The zeto roared, and turned to face me

I watched him raise a fist, and jumped as he threw it as hard and as high as I could, with some difficulty I turned my self into a ball and smahed into his chest. When I landed I watched his fall with rage and pain, I turned to Alister who looked stunned but, free.

"What're you-?"

"Go.Run." I interupted "I'll hold him off. If anyone dosent deserve to die- - especially by enemy's"

"But-!"

"You've done a lot for me," I gave him a small smile. "Now its time to return the favour"

Alister stood there,blinking at me. Then he just smiled gratefully. "Thanks" then he turned around an ran in the opisite direction.

I turned bavk to zavok whom just risen to his feet and rose a fist. I had just enough time to dodge it.

"You insolent blue rat!" He roared ""how dare you touch me?!"

"For the record," I said in a matter of fact tone.

"I'm a hedgehog...not a rat, you should probably write that down somewhere.

He gave another roar of rage and swung again. I dodged it with a grin. It felt good Finnaly fighting again especially after so long. Granted, I might not be able to run, but the chains on my ankles where big enough to give me a wide step. And it was even easier when your opponents attack were slow.

The fight didn't last long, unfortunately, I had messed up my footing from my last dodge thanks to the chains, and I had no time to move. Zavoks fist hit my stomach, and all breath was lost when I doubled over. The world was dark for a moment when I gasped for air, arms squeezing my sides.

Dang cuffs!!! I thought irratedly
