Chapter 4 – The Revealing
Sonic stared with his mouth wide open; he couldn't believe who it was he caught.
"M ... m ... mum?!" Sonic stuttered.
"Uh hello Sonic" Aleena mumbled.
"What? Why? How?" Sonic questioned.
"Come back with me and I'll tell you everything" Aleena said.
Sonic followed his mum back to where she lived which was right in the middle of the city.
Sonic sat himself on a chair opposite to where his mum was sitting.
He looked at Aleena then looked away and sighed.
"How did it all start?" Sonic started.
"Well" Aleena began "We were hiding in a building away from Egg mans robots, they were attacking the city and killing everyone who they saw. It was horrible and we knew they'd find us soon, we knew we had to get out of the city but Egg mans robots where all over the place"
"How did you get out of the city?" Sonic asked.
Aleena continued "your dad came up with an idea, he told me his plan but I hated it"
"What was it? Tell me, tell me" Sonic persisted.
"Your dad kissed me, said goodbye to you and rubbed your head. He then quickly shot off and left us behind" Aleena paused for a minute remembering how she felt when he left her.
"Mum, you still didn't tell me what he did. Mum ... mum ... mum can you hear me? Are you ok?" Sonic questioned.
"Huh ... what, oh yeah I'm fine" She answered "Anyway, he went off and starting to yell to attract the robots attention to him. They all went after him giving me to you to safety, I ran as fast as I could to the edge of the city and then stopped, I starting thinking about your dad, he said he would catch up but I couldn't see him, I got worried and wondered if he was ok"
Tears started to fill her eyes.
"But he showed up and I was so happy and relieved, then the robots came so we ran until we got to the river. The robots were still after us so we hid behind a couple of barrels, we were trapped and the robots were getting closer to us"
"Wow" Sonic gasped "What did you do?"
"Well my priority was you so I took you out of your basket that you were in and held you close to my heart. I kissed your forehead, your father then took off his right glove and I took off my left and we placed them next to your head in the basket. We both started to cry as I placed your basket in the river so you would float away to safety" Aleena took a few minutes to pull herself together as she started to cry a little. "And that's when the robots came to us"
"What did they do?" Sonic wondered.
"One of the robots aimed a giant gun at us; your father grabbed on to me and then pushed me into the river just as the robot fired. I came up to the surface and spluttered I ran over to where we were, all that was there was a huge hole, and at the bottom ..." Aleena gulped "was your father ... dead"
Aleena suddenly fell to the floor and broke down into tears.
Sonic rushed over to his mum, he helped her off the floor and hugged her.
"I was devastated" Aleena sobbed "just seeing his body lay there motionless. I jumped down and picked him up; I carried him out of the hole and placed him on the ground. I hugged him and screamed for help, but no one was around I carried him all the way the other side of the city dodging sight of the robots"
"Oh my god, why did you carry him all the way to the other side of the city?" Said Sonic.
"You know that big hill, Angel view" Aleena asked.
"Yeah, what about it?" Sonic replied.
"Well it's called that because when you get to the top you can see the whole of the city and the beauty of it. That's where I carried your father to; he's buried at the top next to the tree that we first kissed at. We always went up there every year together. It was our special place and he loved it up there so I buried him there ... where he can enjoy the beauty of the city forever" Sighed Aleena.
"I really have to go" Sonic urged.
Sonic left in a hurry, his mum watched a blue flash exit the house and head up the road.
"Where is he off to?" She thought.
Sonic ran through the city trying to avoid people. He suddenly came to a halt as he got to the bottom of Angel view. Sonic blasted up the hill, as he got to the top he skidded and collided with a tree.
"Ouch!" Sonic Shouted.
He looked around and spotted a grave on the other side of the tree. He approached it and saw that there was writing on the headstone. It read:
This Spot will always belong to one special hedgehog.
He will always be remembered by me for his love and bravery.
Even though he is not with me in person he will always be in my heart.
I couldn't have asked for a more loving and caring husband.
I will always love you Shock. Love Aleena Hedgehog.
Sonic's started to tear up, he saw a picture frame attached to the headstone just below the writing. Sonic bent down and looked at it; it was a picture of his mum and dad sitting on this hill kissing each other with the sunset in the background.
He stood up straight and looked in the sky towards the city. The sun was going down and the gentle red warmth of the sun was setting upon the city, the tall buildings that stood up from the ground shimmered as they reflected the sun's light off their windows, Sonic knew that his dad would of loved to have seen this beautiful view so he decided to sit down next to his father's grave and watched the sun disappear beyond the horizon.
Please do not forget to review because I would like to know what you think, Thank you.
