Captured

Reunited

The ship landed on top of a roof, I watched the teen get out of his chair and jump around like crazy

"WOOOOHOOO!!!!I DID IT I DID!!! SHAKURAIS FIRST LANDING BABY!!! YEAH!" He shouted on top of his lungs, it made me smile as I put my hand out for a high five, his eyes sparkled and gasped high fiving me.

"OMG OMG OMG I GOT HIGH FIVED BY SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!!!" He shouts excitedly.

"Good job buddy. After all you do kinda deserve it for controling the ship at such a young age when your hero can't do it"  i smirk a bit rubbing my nose slowly.

"Right, how about.... um help me get off the ship?" I say not knowing how he will react with that, I don't usually like calling others for help but at this point I really needed too.

"sure! You saved my life earlier!" He replies as he puts his arm around my shoulder and carries me out.

-Resistance base-

The doors opened as the rookie carries sonic into the base

"Hey yall" I say croakily

All of their heads turned my way, their eyes gleaming with worry and happiness

"S-Sonic?" Amy replies as she runs up to me "W-what did they do to you?" She replies with her eyes sheading tears

"N-nothing I'm fine Amy I really am" I replied trying not to make her think I let my self get beat up, I felt the rookies eyes on me the whole time.

"Welcome back faker?" Shadow says comming up to me smiling, I clenched my fists remembering him working for Eggman

"You..."  I replied under my breath angrily.

Shadow replied to me crossing his arms "phantom ruby prototype, as if I would ever work for that fool ever again"

Everything now hit me, we're they all phantom ruby illusions? Or were they real? Surely they were phantom ruby prototypes right?

"Weres the rest of the resistance?" I asked with my voice being croaky

Shadow smiles as he looks at me.

"They all went to fight, but sonic if you are thinking about going there to help them! You are not do you even know how bad you look like?" Amy replies not giving me a chance to speak and giving me a mirror, I looked at my self, I looked worst than the last time, my fur burned pitch black, quills all out of place, deep eye bags hanging from the lack of sleep deprivation, more skinny than last time... I felt my heart drop again, tears started to form in my eyes, I can't let them pass, not now while Amy and shadow are here.. not-

I couldn't control it, I began crying.. I felt them all looking at me. Amy decided to hug my tight "what did they do sonic?" She asks calmy as I felt a tear falling on my fur, I wanted to open my mouth to speak but I couldn't get anything out, I needed this hug.... I needed it. My heart beat fast as she hugged my tighter.

"I'm sorry.... I failed all of you.." I said regrettably.

She stopped looking at me and held my hand "sonic... what ever they did to you, impacted you a lot, you didn't fail any of us. Even if the world is destroyed we are going to get it back together" she replies with a smile "you need some rest"

"No Amy, I'm clearly needed, I don't care what state I am I need to save the world once more" I said as I limped over to the door.

"Sonic? Do you need any help?" The rookie replies standing next to a very worried looking Amy.

I smiled "I'm fine... thank you" I said as I ran off with the pain hitting me the faster or slower I ran. I stopped running, holding my self onto a tree looking at an imagine of Alister and his fammily.

"I'll save the world and make Eggman pay for what he has done" I say as I put my hand on my chest like the last time "I won't let anyone down this time..." I say to my self as I run into the sunset of smoke..
