I actually have nothing to say this chapter (amazing isn't it). So, just the usual. If you read please take a moment to leave your thoughts on the chapter.

Chapter 11

In the Palace Library, Robotnik searched for the text he required. Sleet and Dingo watched with curiosity. Robotnik rarely utilized the library for his research.

"Your Excellency, what is it you're looking for?" Sleet asked. Any information was useful in this job.

Robotnik pulled out a dusty volume from a cobwebbed-shelf. "This." The title read Book of the Sentinels. "What happened last night...I thought it was just a myth, an old wives' tale. But now, ah, here we are," he placed the book on the table for Sleet to read. He wouldn't expect Dingo to read it.

Sleet read aloud. "When a baby is born, a spiritual guardian is assigned to them at birth. However, there are special guardians. If it happens that a mortal gives his life to save another, he is given a position of high guardian over the one they save and that one becomes invulnerable from that which first threatened them."

Robotnik growled at the last passage, missing Dingo's brief expression delight. "Do you realize what this means?"

"Uh..." Dingo pretended to think.

"Don't think too hard there Dingo, it may sprain your brain," Sleet cracked as he considered the implications. This should let Dingo off the hook from his promise.

"It means that I can do nothing to Princess Sonia! Bartleby died to save her from me!" Robotnik shouted.

"But you can still go after the other two, Your Greatness," Sleet reasoned. "What is one little hedgehog. We just need to get her brothers."

Robotnik's eyes went back to the book. "Oh, Bartleby must think he foiled me. But, if one legend is true, then the rest must hold a grain of truth as well and that is where we must strike."

Sonia woke up feeling sick again that morning, barely making it to the stream that flowed through the cave.

"Are you well, Princess?" the Oracle asked as he came up behind her.

She shook her head. "No, Oracle. I've been feeling horrible the past few days. Migraines, nausea, mood swings."

The Oracle thought for a moment. "It might simply be a physical manifestation of your grief. Are there any other symptoms though?"

"Yeah, um, is this just between us? I feel strange talking about this with a guy..." she admitted.

The Oracle nodded. "If it helps; just think of me as a doctor."

"Well I've been having soreness in my...my breasts and they seem to be swollen. And my friend Mindy, she said I was glowing. And then I've been eating what Sonic thinks is weird food. Like ketchup and peanut butter or pickles with chocolate sauce," she explained.

The Oracle listened to her symptoms and his eyes widened as he considered the possibilities. "Hmmm, Princess Sonia, if you do not mind my asking but did you and your young man ever..." he trailed off leaving her to fill in the blanks.

Sonia blushed, embarrassed to admit to her teacher that she was sexually active. "Well...maybe...occasionally."

"Princess, perhaps try being a little more honest. I won't judge you, you are old enough to decide if you are ready for sex. It is a beautiful thing to be able to give yourself completely to that special someone," he touched her hand comfortingly. "You and he shared a strong love and you should not be ashamed of any part of it."

"Okay, we were together at least once a week. We tried being separated, waiting until Robotnik was gone and we could marry but..." She was glad they hadn't been able to follow through on that plan. If they had... "Please don't tell Sonic and Manic, I don't want them to know."

"I will not, but you might have to Princess," the Oracle said. "During your time together, did you ever let him..." he again left her to figure out what he meant. She was a smart lass.

Again she nodded. "But only once, the last time we were together. A little over 2 weeks ago."

The Oracle returned the nod, now fairly certain he knew what was wrong. "Well, I have some suspicions. Will you allow me to cast a quick spell, Princess?"

"Sure, anything to find out why I'm feeling so weird."

He pointed one hand at her, a small white light floating to her abdomen. The light circled her stomach before coming to a stop and flashing over her. "As I suspected. Princess, I'm afraid you really will have to leave the Underground for a time."

"Why? What's wrong with me?"

"Child, you were so sure your lover had left you all alone in his departure. You were wrong. His legacy grows inside you even now."

Sonia gasped. "You mean, I'm...oh my gosh!" She put her hands to her stomach. "Oh my gosh." The implications of what they'd done that last time, the one and only time she'd encouraged him to finish inside of her. And it was only days before his death. "Bartleby...you're gonna be a daddy..." she spoke aloud. "Why did you have to leave me now?" She wiped her eyes as she felt the tears burning in them.

After Sonia had a good cry, the Oracle and she went back to her brothers. They were still waiting for her so they could eat breakfast.

"Ya feeling okay sis? You weren't getting sick again were you?" Sonic asked.

Sonia sat down at the table, the Oracle staying out of the way. "Sonic, Manic, I have something I need to talk to you about."

The Oracle quickly conjured a large platter of chili dogs along with a large variety for Sonia to choose from. She took advantage by immediately grabbing a pickle and chocolate sauce.

"What's up sis?" Manic asked. "Just tell us."

Sonia nodded as she munched her pickle spear. "Well, you already know how close Bartleby and I were. Except you don't know JUST how close we were..."

Sonic cocked his head to one side. "What do you mean Sonia? How close were you?"

"Um, you know how I'd disappear almost every Friday night and wouldn't return until Saturday morning. I wouldn't tell you where?" she asked. "Um, well, you see, I know you thought I broke up with Bartleby but...on those nights I'd be at his place and we would be...together."

"Okay, so you were still seeing Bartleby," Manic shrugged. "You could have told us before."

She shook her head. Her brothers were so naive, particularly Manic. "No Manic, I mean we were together. Um, we knew each other in the ancient sense. We loved each other very VERY much."

Sonic was the first to get it. "Sis, you mean you and he...AHHH!" he cried out as his mind threw uninvited images at him. "Sis, we don't need to know about your sex life! Ick! Get out of my head!"

Manic got it when Sonic said "sex life". "Whoa, Sonia! Yeah, you can keep that to yourself."

Her brothers' reactions made her laugh as she grabbed another spear and smeared another helping of chocolate on it. "Guys, I wouldn't tell you if it didn't have to do with why I've been sick the past few days. And why I have to formally leave the Freedom Fighters for at least 4 months, maybe longer."

Manic didn't get it but thankfully Sonic was able to put the clues together with that last crucial piece to the puzzle. "Oh sis," he reached his hand for hers, trying to gauge what his reaction should be. He was angry at first to learn that Bartleby had touched his sister but he knew that was typical brother-sister over protectiveness. "Sonia..."

"Yeah," she smiled sadly. "This is a good thing...really. I'm really just bummed that he never knew, he'll never get to meet him or her."

Manic shook his head. "Wait, what's wrong? I don't understand."

Sonic sighed. "Manic, you really are naive. Sonia's gonna have a baby. We're gonna be uncles."

Manic grinned. "Really? Wow! Way to go sis!" He reached around to give her a gentle hug. He patted her belly. "Hey there, it's your Uncle Manic."

Manic's enthusiasm about the situation proved very contagious and Sonic couldn't help feeling it. He felt a sense of elation that he was going to be an uncle. Giving into the happy feeling, he joined his sibs in a group hug. For the first time in a while, things seemed to be going right.

Until Sonic remembered the other thing her pregnancy meant. "Wait, sis. What about the Underground? What about Robotnik? He seems to have a very strange fascination with you specifically."

Sonia nodded. "I know. I have to leave the fight. I was thinking, I might move into...the mansion. Be close to Bartleby."

"Um sis, that might not be a good idea, Robotnik will be expecting you to go there." Manic stated.

"Yeah but if I'm not in the fight, Robotnik might not be able to get the nobles support to come after me." She couldn't help noticing how ironic it was that she would be finally be taking Bartleby's suggestion only after it was too late. "If I don't give him a way to justify it."

"That is true," the Oracle came into the conversation. "However, I also don't think Robotnik can even touch you, Princess. I did some research on the light and the voice you spoke of last night. I do believe you have now have a high guardian in your young man."

"What is a High Guardian?" Sonia asked. She'd never heard the term.

"It comes from the ancient legend of the Sentinels, the beings thought to watch over this planet," the Oracle explained. "Young Sir Montclair gave his life that you might live. Moreover, he was protecting you from Robotnik specifically. According to legend, this means he will have been given charge to watch over and protect you from Robotnik. This means Robotnik cannot touch you, and likely he will not be able to touch your child as well as you were pregnant when he died. Now, you still have to leave the fight. Robotnik cannot harm you but that doesn't mean you're invulnerable to others under his command and there is still the simple fact that it wouldn't be good for the baby if you fought, if only because of the stress alone."

Sonia nodded in agreement. "The mansion would be best. Everyone believes Bartleby and I apparently eloped because he claimed me as his wife in his will. When people learn I'm pregnant, if Robotnik even tries to send anyone after me, they'll go nuts. I, we'll be safer there than anywhere else. I just hate leaving you two alone to fight. The medallions work better when we're all together. What would Mother say, Oracle?"

"She'd say you should certainly leave the fight," a familiar voice behind them said.

AN: So, Sonia knows she's pregnant and it sounds like Robotnik is up to no good as usual. However, perhaps this new development will enable Dingo to be near Sonia without Sleet worrying like a Mother Hen.

NOTE: Her pregnancy is only about 4-5 months because she's a hedgehog, not a human but then she's not an Earth hedgehog either. The gestation period of a, Earth hedgehog is between 35-60 days. I simply doubled it because she is a Mobian Hedgehog.
