Author�s Note:
It feels like eons since I last updated this story. But work has been
a nagging pain in the neck of late, and it�s starting to get to me.
On my days off when I could be typing a bit more, I�m usually
conked out most of the time.
Or, I�m out trying to enjoy the
last few days of summer as work has had me on a fine leash for most
of it.
On top of that, I currently have
relatives over and one of the things they like to do when they�re
not out sightseeing is hop on the computer and browse for hours on
end. Then there�s also the issue of school just being right around
the corner, but I think I can handle updating with schoolwork.
(Sonic�s POV)
The baby.
That was the only thing racing
through my mind as I made a frenzied dash towards the hospital.
Moving my feet and tearing up the pavement as I took the quickest
shortcut I knew of.
I don�t know exactly what�s
going on at the moment, but from the way Cream sounded on the phone,
I�m not sure what to think. She was in hysterics, but whether or
not it was of the joyous or sorrowful kind is yet to be known. In
fact, that pretty much could sum up the past few weeks for me � I
don�t know what to think about any of this�
This pregnancy feels like it came
out of nowhere. One moment I�m finding out that she�s pregnant
(or rather, stumbling upon it accidentally), the next she�s
inflated to abnormal proportions.
Seriously�I think I just
blinked for a split second before the obvious aspects of pregnancy
started to appear.
A baby that I didn�t know existed
until recently, and who actually might be coming into the world this
very moment.
Or just becoming a father when I
never asked or wanted to, let alone being prepared for it.
I don�t even think I had a full
moment to let the depth of the situation truly sink in until now.
We�re having a baby and to be
perfectly honest, I�m not the least bit thrilled.
And not because I dislike kids. I
think they�re great. Hell, if I did, I doubt I could have been as
close as I am to a kid like Tails from the start. Or even remotely
gotten along with Cream or Charmy when they were both younger.
Still even think of myself as a
kid at times.
Soon came to a screeching halt as I
gracefully skid through the emergency room doors. Headed over to the
front desk where the receptionist seemed more intent on obtaining an
autograph than telling me where Amy was being situated.
�I can�t believe I�m talking
to the one and only Sonic the Hedgehog!� she exclaims, leaving me
to mentally sigh over every second that I could have been with Amy.
After a few more moments of her
praise (and one or two autographs), she finally divulges the room
information I had initially been seeking.
E-Unit 1, Rm 5. Doesn�t
take me long to locate, as the familiar faces of a few of our friends
indicate that I�m in the right place. Tails, who had arrived just
before me, was doing the best he could to comfort Cream, who seemed
more hysterical in person than she had been on the phone.
Vanilla had also arrived as well,
trying to offer her daughter a few soothing words that weren�t
necessarily getting through to her. Cheese was there too, floating
above Cream�s head while also trying to cheer her up in its own
way.
Casually, though with some unease in
it, I greeted the trio and asked them if they knew exactly what was
going on. Both Tails and Vanilla shook their heads in response,
saying that they only came after hearing the distraught Cream over
the phone. They also tell me that a medical professional is currently
in the room with Amy, looking her over, so all they can do is wait
for a briefing on the situation.
At this point, Cream manages to look
up at me for the first time since I�ve arrived, and runs from
Tails� arms into mine, weeping and sobbing �I�m sorry, Sonic�,
as if she had done something wrong. I rock her back gently in my
arms, trying to calm her down the best I could so that she might be
able to fill me in, as she was the only one who saw what happened.
Gradually, a few choice words and
phrases are uttered from her:
Blood.
Baby.
Miscarriage.
That�s all that I can get out of
her, before she gives me a dead serious look in the face and asks why
Amy couldn�t tell her that she was having a baby.
��we never hide anything from
each other�, she cries, �First it�s you guys getting together,
and now you might be having a baby.�
I guess that last part made it
really click for me.
Amy could be losing the baby.
I might not have been so keen on
the idea of having kids, but I never wanted anything like this to
happen�
Hell, I think this qualifies as
ruining her life. Getting her pregnant and she might not be able to
keep it.
It seems as if Cream�s fragmented
information made Tails and Vanilla visibly upset.
�I didn�t know it was this
serious�, Vanilla whispered, as she returned to her daughter�s
side. �I hope they both pull through for you.�
Tails walked over to me, patting my
shoulders in an attempt to comfort me. �I�m really sorry for you,
bro�, he started, �But I wish you guys had told us the news
earlier. We could have all helped.�
Earlier?
I started to laugh at that thought.
Having her tell me earlier (or anyone else for that matter) seems
like a hard luxury, which I tell them.
�Consider yourselves lucky you
even found out� I tell them all.
�What the hell is that supposed to
mean?� inquired Tails. He had seemly gotten very serious concerning
the matter at hand.
I can�t hide the fact that I�m
still irritated with how I found out for myself.
I had had enough hanging around and
decided to find out for myself what was going on. I told Tails to
step aside and passed Cream and her mother, who still wasn�t
letting up. I was about to enter the room when I noticed a familiar
face, with a stern look and arms crossed standing to the right of the
closed door.
Shadow.
I don�t think any of us realized
that he might have been standing there this entire time.
Just as well I suppose. I don�t
think I�m currently in the mood to stand around and entertain him.
But thinking and doing are
definitely two entirely different things.
I punched him square in the jaw.
He seemed as if he genuinely wasn�t
expecting that, as he stumbled back a few feet before regaining his
composure. My hit had succeeded in drawing some blood from his lip,
which I think I might have split.
�What the FUCK was that for?� he
roared while rubbing his lower jaw. His blood red eyes began to flash
a shade brighter, as if staring daggers.
�I dunno,� I said slyly, �but
it sure made me feel a hell of a lot better.� I alternated fists as
I prepared, aimed, and swung a tight hook shot towards his torso,
only to find myself hitting air immediately afterwards.
Not to mention a very sharp blow
to my own torso right after.
He had parried at the precise moment
my hook would have made the connection and used the opening made to
give me a good jab underneath my ribcage. Forceful enough to render
me stunned for a few seconds, I staggered back as he pushed me
against the wall, glaring all the while.
�I�m more than well informed
over what must be irritating you at the mere sight of me�, he
snarled. �but I�m only here because I�m concerned for Amy�s
well being...�
�Concerned because it might be
yours?�
I guess I must have said that out
loud as the others were staring at us both in shock and awe. Vanilla
was now escorting Cream down the hall towards the bathroom as she was
near vomiting as a result of her crying. This left Tails and Cheese,
with very shocked expressions and rather speechless, with the little
chao sporting something the likes of which I had never seen one of
them do before.
Fuck, I never knew Chao could
have obscenities like �WTF?� floating over their onion shaped
heads.
I managed to grab hold of one of his
shoulders and give him a sharp kneeing in the midsection, allowing me
some distance between him and the wall. Or at least, I thought I got
a good kneeing, since I was once again pinned. He delivers yet
another blow to my gut, and it�s by now that I realize that he�s
purposely trying to take it easy on me.
Shadow�s not the type to just
go easy on someone. The guy lives on nothing but violence and sadism.
Hell, I think I even caught him
once at the local park shooting at slumbering bums on benches.
Good thing he missed them�I
think.
Even with this realization, my anger
only became more intense. But managed he hold me down nonetheless,
looking down at the floor while keeping me in a firm and secure grip.
�I don�t know�what someone
like her sees in you�, he starts. He releases his grip, while
coldly staring me down.
�Even after the fact that you�re
proving to be one hell of a lousy father.�
I would have said something to reply
to that, but he continued:
�And what really gets me is that
for some odd reason, she wants that kid to grow up to be just like
you. Which could be difficult when your father is spineless bastard
who�s been denying you from the get go��
I was preparing to throw another
punch by that time, but his words managed to strike a sensitive spot.
I think I was trying to find a way
out. Maybe not all at once, but I think I was doing it all the same.
From thinking Shadow had a hand in its conception to practically
distancing myself from Amy any chance I got.
I�m scared of what this type of
responsibility might entail, and what could come if I fucked it up�
Must have stood there caught in
thought, as the door opened, and someone dressed in lime green
hospital scrubs stepped out before closing it once more. Took me a
few seconds before I realized that this person seemed rather
familiar, before it dawned on me that they had been the one with Amy
when she had collapsed at the bar a few weeks back.
�I remember you briefly from the
other time Amy was here. Sonic, right?� she asks, after extending
her hand out for a firm handshake. �Dr. Sara R. Torinai. It�s
just your luck today as I�m also her attending obstetrician.�
�Yeah. That�s me.� I say. �But
enough of the pleasantries. Is she...are they�going to be
alright?� A hint of worry is present in my voice, which surprises
me.
I think this is the first time
that I�ve actually displayed some genuine concern for both Amy and
the baby.
I was greeted by a warm smile that
was followed with: �Well, let me start off by saying that both
mother and baby are doing ok.�
When she said �baby�, I guess I
must have been seeing stars because she corrected herself:
�Don�t worry. It�s not quite
ready to come into the world just yet. But with that aside, I just
wanted to alert you to what could be a cause for concern.�
Concern?
�Apparently, between Amy�s most
recent visit with me and being admitted into the emergency room
today, a slight subchorionic hematoma, or blood clot, formed and
ruptured from inside the womb. While it�s a good distance away from
both the fetus and placenta, it�s still a concern it was previously
undetected, and if developing this late, may go on to pose a risk to
the health of both mother and child.�
Cream and Vanilla had returned from
the restroom, both seeming in better spirits, and had heard the last
bit of what the doctor was saying. �So you�re saying that they�re
okay, but then they aren�t?� the young rabbit asked, already
easily perplexed by this development.
Shaking her head in response, the
doctor goes on to clarify her previous statement. �Amy and her baby
are doing fine. But with the symptoms of vaginal bleeding and some
slight back pain, this is generally classified as a threatened
abortion. That means, that there is a possibility the baby could or
could not make it, or 50/50 if you want to get into statistics.
But, since I�ve had the pleasure
of attending to Amy for most her pregnancy, I know for a fact that
she�s carrying an otherwise healthy and strong baby.�
That was all that Cream needed to
hear before she was back to her old self. She was jumping up and down
ecstatically, with Cheese not far behind until her mother reminded
her of we were.
�We have to be quiet for everyone
who�s recovering here�, Vanilla scolded.
Tails, who had been quiet for most
of this, finally walked up to me with a smile and congratulated me.
�I guess I can say congratulations, seeing as how everything seems
okay at the moment�, he said softly.
I would have thanked him, but Amy�s
doctor tapped me on the shoulder. �Do you mind if I speak to you
for a moment?� she inquired.
Shrugging, I waved to Tails as he
followed Cream and her mother into the room to see Amy. When they had
closed the door, she spoke up. �What I�m about to say isn�t
necessarily bad, but it�s always best to be on the safe side.
I�ve decided to put Amy on bed
rest until the blood clot clears up. She can go home today, but she
has to refrain from doing a heavy workload and moving about.�
�Bed rest? She can�t move at
all?� I ask.
�Bed rest, or �house arrest�
is what it is. She�ll simply be taking it easy by lying in bed,
staying on the couch�just relaxing until I give the go ahead to get
back into her regular routine.
And, this is where you come into
play. Since she�ll be unable to do the things she usually would
outside, you need to be supportive right now and help her out as best
you can. Whether that�s carrying her around the house or taking up
the regular grocery shopping is up to you.�
I nodded, thanked her, and was about
to enter the room when she also added:
�Oh, and by the way, bed rest also
means that there should be no more sexual intercourse between you two
until this is all straightened out.
Other than that, I have to get
going. I�m currently on call here, and one of my other patients
just recently checked into the maternity ward.
It was nice seeing you again, and
please tell Amy that I�ll see her at her next appointment!�
And with that, she was off, jogging
as fast as her green scrubs could carry her.
Once again turning towards the door,
I noticed Shadow had left. Maybe hearing that Amy and the baby were
both okay was enough for him. Finally step inside to see everyone
else surrounding Amy, who was in a hospital bed and connected to a
weird set of beeping and buzzing machinery.
�I think Sonic and Amy need some
time alone� Vanilla stated. She then told me that we were welcome
to any of Cream�s old baby stuff when the time came before
escorting Cream, Tails, and Cheese out.
Sighing, and a bit relieved, I pull
over a nearby chair and set it beside the bed. Pausing, I look down
at the bed sheets, then the various surrounding monitors from which
the noises originate.
�So�what�s that one supposed
to do?� I ask, while pointing to one where a little dot made
squiggly lines every few seconds.
�It�s the baby�s heartbeat and
rate.� she says. �But what would you care about that?�
Noticing that the marker on the
monitor was peaking and dropping rapidly, I said �Kid has a really
good heart.
Just like its� mother.�
SMACK! She had thrown one of
her pillows at me.
�What�s wrong with you?� she
asked, as tears began to form in her eyes. �You�ve ignored and
avoided me ever since you found out about this baby, and now all of a
sudden you�re happy about it?
Make up your friggin� mind!�
I would have been dissuaded from
pursing it further if I hadn�t remembered something I�ve learnt
these past few weeks:
Pregnant women are prone to mood
swings, and as Amy�s no ordinary woman, they�re extreme. But even
with that, it�s all justified.
Carefully, I take her hands into
mine and look deep into her eyes, which were still beautiful even
with all the crying she had obviously done.
�You got me. I�m a major asshole
who deserved that, and I�m sorry.
I was just scared, but that�s no
reason to treat you like I have. Forgive me?�
And that�s when she gave me the
brightest smile for the first time since I found out.
�We�ll see about that�, she
says, a bit mischievously. �Maybe I�ll forgive you right after
they take me off of bed rest��
I like those odds!
Meanwhile�
Unbeknownst to our lovely couple,
they weren�t alone. On the wall crawled a seemingly harmless
ladybug. To any untrained eye, this little insect would just be going
about its daily routine.
However, this was no ordinary
ladybug, but a finely tuned video camera and recorder, capable of
relaying images and sounds to another receiver.
And, seated in front of this very
receiver, carefully stroking his graying whiskers was none other than
Dr.Eggman himself.
�Children?� he asked no one
in particular.
�This could get interesting.
Very interesting indeed.�
And there you have it folks. Amy and the baby are doing fine (amist a few concerns) and it seems Sonic is finally trying to accept it for what it is.
Also We
all know it�s never a good thing whenever Eggman�s involved, so
stay tuned for that development in chapters to come.
Next chapter finally features the
return of Rouge, along with Knuckles being introduced (and of course,
a clique misunderstanding results in an all out brawl with Sonic).
Stay tuned, and as always,
review!
