Chapter 6

I try to think of a plan to escape, but I have no good ideas. I hear the front door close and I immediately thought of something.

"Sally, Sonic, I'm going to try to escape. If I make it. I'll go to Vector and send the cops for you all." I said. They nodded weakly and I try to loosen up the rope, but to no avail. Suddenly, I felt the rope loosen. I kept shimming despite the rope burn that's forming on my wrists. I finally got free and tiptoe upstairs. I ran out the front door when I saw him.

"And where do you think you're going, princess?" He taunted. I tried to run past him, but he pinned me down. I struggle to get him off of me, but he's way too strong. I finally managed to flip him over and ran as fast as possible. I ran through the woods and I felt like dying. I ran until I ran into a small area. People started as entered the area. I looked around for a police station until I suddenly passed out. I wake up in an office with Vector and Espio and Charmy across from me.

"Amy, are you ok? What happened?" Vector asked.

"No, my body hurts badly and it was Scourge who kidnapped me and now he has Sonic and Sally," I said quickly.

"We figured that Scourge was responsible for this. Do you know his location?" Vector asked.

"I remember it was a small house near the woods," I answered.

"Of course! Returning to the scene of the crime." Vector said. I gave him a confused look.

"Oh, you must not know. Well Amy, before you there were eight others. The difference between you and them is that none of them survived. Scourge was arrested and sentenced to death, but he escaped. So, it is really important that we capture him." He explained. I nodded in understanding. The plan was simple: Go to Scourge's house and negotiate with him. Honestly, I think there's a slim chance of this working, but I will have faith in this. I ride in Vector's car and we get there within thirty minutes.

"Stay in the car." Vector said. He got out of the car and started speaking with a megaphone.

"Scourge, this is detective Vector. Please come quietly and you won't get hurt." Vector shouted into the megaphone. Scourge then came out dragging Sonic with him.

"I'm not going. Leave or he dies." Scourge threatened with a knife to Sonic's throat. We weren't prepared for this, so the negotiation was going to take longer than planned.

It has been almost an hour and I can tell Vector is growing tired of this. Meanwhile, Scourge still has Sonic hostage with a crazy look in his eyes. Vector sighed and decided on a different approach.

"Why don't you just give up and go to jail?" Vector bluntly asked. Scourge then started to laugh. His laugh then got louder and more insane.

"So I can rot and wait a thousand years just to die? Do you know what it's like to be put to death and wait so many years to die? It drives you insane! Just let me die if you want to kill me!"Scourge shouted. Vector noticed that he has let go of Sonic and motioned the cops toward Scourge. One group of officers restrained Scourge while the other group looks for Sally. I suddenly fell asleep as I heard the ambulance drive up.

2 years later

My gut told me not to go, but the therapist at the support group said I need to find closure. So I decided to suck it up and here I am. I showed the guard my id and she led me into a dim room where I saw Sally and Sonic sit down. I waved to them and they waved back, but their eyes look hollow. Sally's blind in one eye while Sonic had a prosthetic finger. We nodded at each other as though we can read each other's minds and waited. Suddenly, the lights in the other room turned on and I saw him being escorted by a guard to a thin bed. They strap him down while a preacher says a verse from the bible. They raised the bed so that he can face us. I shiver at his smirk.

"He's not afraid to die, is he?" Sally asks. I just shook my head. A nurse then came in ready to put the syringe.

"Any last words?" The guard said. Scourge then gave a smile that showed all of his sharp teeth, making me shiver.

"Shut the fuck up and kill me." He said bluntly, which shocked everyone, even me. The nurse then injected the chemical into Scourge and we started to wait patiently. He then started to shake like he was having a seizure, then he stopped moving. The nurse checked his pulse and pronounced him dead. I was frozen. I didn't know what to say or do as I left the prison.

"Amy, are you ok?" Sonic asked.

"I don't know. I just saw somebody die." I replied.

"It wasn't just somebody, it was Scourge. The punishment fits the crime."Sally said coldly. I thought about what Sally said as I drive home. I ran into the house as tears poured down my face. "How am I supposed to find closure in this? Won't the madness end?!" I ask myself as I almost pull my hair out. I then went to the bathroom and got my sleeping pills and took as many as possible before I started feeling dizzy. I suddenly fell on the floor and everything went black.

And that is the end! I hope you guys enjoyed this fanfiction and please review!
