Конфронтация

Данный фанфик писался до выхода третьего фильма по Сонику, поэтому эту историю можно считать его альтернативной вселенной...

— Отличная работа, ребята! Мы сделали это! — торжественно объявил синий ёж Соник своим друзьям и по совместительству, братьям, жёлтому двухвостому лисёнку и красному воину ехидне Наклзу, находясь рядом с грудой металлолома, которая всего-то несколько минут назад была грозной военной машиной организации ГАН.

— Интересно, что ещё нам ждать от этих солдат… — вздохнул Тейлз. — Надеюсь, что на сегодня-то больше не будет битв или сражений… — Соник взглянул на лисёнка. Он не мог винить малыша в его словах, поскольку они, все трое, прилично устали от боёв за сегодняшний день.

И ёж до сих пор не мог понять, отчего ГАН так взъярились на него и его друзей, ведь они ничего плохого не сделали. Да, га́новцы до сих пор не жаловали разношёрстную троицу, но те всё же не трогали до сегодняшнего дня ни его, ни его друзей и близких. Но тогда возникает вопрос: а почему они внезапно решили устроить охоту на них, в особенности на него, Соника?

Соник же жил вполне себе мирно в городке Грин Хиллз, ничего такого преступного не совершал. Конечно, сидеть без дела он не всегда мог, и потому мог пошалить. Но все его шалости были ведь вполне себе безобидными, чтобы вот так устраивать за это охоту. Неужто кто-то посчитал его веселье настоящим преступлением?

В любом случае, Сонику и остальным сейчас как можно скорее хотелось добраться до дома Ваковски, где они точно будут в безопасности.

— А я был бы, наоборот, не против ещё одной битвы! — внезапно откликнулся Наклз, разминая кулаки. — Если это всё, на что способны эти жалкие воины, то они нам не ровня.

— Наклз, молчал бы лучше, а то ещё накличешь беду, — упрекнул красного воина синий лидер.

— А что я такого сказал? — не понял ехидна. — Битвы — это смысл моей жизни! Да и… как это я накличу беду?

— Это не так уж и важно, — отмахнулся ёж. — Сейчас главный смысл у тебя должен быть — спасением нашей семьи от злых людей и сохранением наших шкур.

— Соник прав, Наклз, — вставил Тейлз. — Сейчас нам лучше поспешить, пока сюда не прибыли новые машины, которые могут оказаться гораздо сильнее предыдущих.

— Ха! Я не боюсь каких-то там железяк! — хвастливо заявил воин.

— Наклз, здесь нам нужно быть умнее, а не храбрее, сечёшь? — усталым и с раздражением в голосе высказал Соник.

— Эм… Да, я полагаю… — ответил ехидна.

— Чудно! А теперь пошли… Том с Мэдди волнуются поди за нас…

— Соник, Наклз, смотрите! — вдруг вскрикнул лисёнок, указывая старшим друзьям на откуда ни возьмись яркую вспышку света, появившуюся прямо на обломках боевой машины.

— Ох нет! Если это опять солдаты с вертолёта, то я к ним ни за что не вернусь!

— гневно прокричал Соник. — У них даже телевизора с интересными программами да чилидогами нет!

На последнюю фразу Тейлз и Наклз бросили недоумённые взгляды на синего ежа. Тот, поймав из взгляды, удивлённо спросил:

— Что? Так ведь оно и есть.

Но вот вспышка исчезла, и на месте оказался чей-то силуэт.

— Приветствую. Рад наконец-то встретить тебя, синий ёж, — заговорил незнакомец низким, но весьма приятным голосом.

— Кто? Что? — только и произнёс в ответ сам ёжик. Сам же он не испытывал доверия к незнакомцу.

— А если быть точнее… — меж тем продолжил неизвестный. — Ёжик Соник… Я прав, не так ли?

Тот вышел на свет, и трое друзей ахнули, когда увидели представителя своей расы, мобианцев. Но больше всех был шокирован сам Соник. Над ним возвысился, стоя в горделивой позе, чёрный с красными полосами ёж. — Ого! Ещё один ёж? — изумился Тейлз. — И причём… он немного похож на тебя, Соник…

Да, хоть у чёрно-алого ежа боковые иглы на голове были подняты кверху, в то время как у синего все иглы были опущены вниз, а ещё у чужака были красные, как и полосы на шкуре того, глаза и на груди находился белый пушистый пучок шерсти, а на ногах были надеты не кеды, а реактивные ботинки, всё же Соник у того уловил некоторые схожие черты с ним. Да и на подростка вполне себе тянет, коим также является и синий ёж. И если не обращать внимания на некоторые выделяющиеся детали внешности, то полосатый ёж мог вполне себе выглядеть как отражение синего героя, только разве что тёмное, либо же как его… тень.

— Давненько мы с тобой не виделись, Соник, верно? — всё также говорил с собратом незнакомец.

— Соник, ты его… знаешь?.. — неуверенно обратился к Сонику Тейлз. — Н-нет… Я… в первый раз его вижу… — только и произнёс он, а потом вдруг вскрикнул. Положив руку на лоб, он стиснул зубы, перед его глазами возникли какие-то нечёткие картинки: будто сначала он с кем-то играл и смеялся, потом пришли ужас и страх, а дальше — полная темнота. — Соник, ты в порядке? — заволновался за друга лисёнок.

— Да… Я в порядке… — прошептал Соник, справившись с внезапной головной болью.

— Ты уверен в этом, ёж? — также выразил беспокойство и Наклз.

— Да-да. Всё хорошо, ребята. Всё хорошо, — а после синий обратился к сородичу.

— Кто ты вообще такой, что знаешь меня?

— Неужели ты меня забыл, Соник? — притворно удивился полосатый. — Может, тебе помогут освежить память те гадкие людишки, что охотились за тобой?

Тут внезапно Соника осенило…

— Так это ты меня подставил, да? Из-за тебя нас преследует ГАН?

— Хм. Ну… можно и так, наверное, сказать… — хитро ухмыльнулся чёрный с красным ёжик.

— Так, значит, ты и есть тот самый преступник, которого разыскивают га́новцы! — рассердился Соник. — Тебя же и следует посадить в решётку! — он весь засветился голубым светом.

— Коли так считаешь… то попробуй, поймай меня, — насмешливо заявил полосатый.

Соник со злостью бросился навстречу чужаку.

— Соник, постой! — попытался остановить его Тейлз, но ёж его не послушал. Соник был слишком зол на того ежа, который по сути, подверг его и семью синего опасности! Он не мог допустить, чтобы злоумышленник так легко избежал заслуженного правосудия.

Ему заодно вспомнилось, как он оставил на родной планете свою первую семью, сову Длинный Коготь, что взяла его под своё крыло. Он просто не мог совершить ещё одну ошибку и потерять вторую семью, что обрёл на Земле…

Вот герой подпрыгнул, свернулся в клубок и понёсся в атаку на тёмного ежа. Наклз и Тейлз не могли поверить тому, что происходило у них на глазах: Соник ведь никогда не впадал в такую ярость, как сейчас, поэтому они не понимали, что могло так сильно разъярить их колючего друга и брата.

— Получай, Самозванец! — воскликнул Соник, продолжая нестись на сородича. А что касается самого чёрного ежа, то тот спокойно себе стоял, сохраняя хладнокровие. А потом он еле слышно произнёс:

— Хаос Контроль, — после чего он исчез.

И Соник просто пронёсся вперёд, пока не врезался в асфальт, оставив на месте приличную вмятину.

— Ох… Что случилось? Куда делся тот ёж? — мотая головой и приходя в себя, проговорил он.

— Соник! — вскоре к нему подбежали его названные братья.

— Не меня ли ищешь, синий ёж? — трое ребят обратили свой взор на одну из многоэтажек, где теперь стоял неизвестный.

— Неужто он так быстр? — поразился Соник. — Он даже быстрее меня? — Я… Я не думаю, что это была скорость, Соник… — засомневался лисёнок. А незнакомец спустя мгновение продолжил:

— Ха! Ничто не сравнится с силой самого Хаоса… А уж совладать ей может лишь только Совершенная Форма Жизни, кем я и являюсь…

— О да? Если ты не трус, но спустись вниз сразись со мной! — бросил вызов Совершенной Форме Жизни синий ёж.

— Ты зря меня недооцениваешь, маленький ежонок… — хихикнул тот. — Очень зря… — но всё же спустился вниз, на землю, хотя и не стал приближаться к героям.

— Давай! Сразись со мной один на один, если ты не боишься меня и моей силы!

— Соник приготовился к бегу. — Только смотри без фокусов!

— Соник, может, лучше не надо? — Тейлз боялся за лучшего друга, всё-таки они так мало знают о полосатом еже. Ведь неизвестно, на что тот способен.

— И мы одна команда, ёж, — также напомнил и Наклз.

— Ребята, я справлюсь, не переживайте. Я справлюсь, — уверено сообщил им Соник, ненадолго к ним обернувшись.

— Ну, раз ты так хвастаешься своей силой, «Самозванец», то тогда покажи мне её, — надменно сказал чёрно-алый.

— Ну тогда… Врубаем максималку! — и Соник понёсся по улице, вскоре его собрат погнался за ним.

— Давай пойдём за ними, Наклз, — затем предложил лисёнок ехидне. — Что-то мне подсказывает, что ничего хорошего из этого не выйдет…

— Я согласен с тобой, лис. Поспешим тогда за синим ежом, — Тейлз кивнул, и друзья отправились вслед за своим лидером.

А Соник меж тем всё пытался понять, что за сверхскоростной такой ёж, рядом с ним. И… отчего же тот выглядел для него вроде как знакомо, хотя и смутно? — Хех. Теперь мы одни, ёж. Покажи мне, на что ты способен без своих… «друзей», — съехидничал чёрный с красным ёжик.

— С удовольствием, Самозванец! — и Соник попытался ударить сородича ногой, но тот ловко увернулся, а после нанёс ответные удары синему кулаками, пока он не рухнул на землю. Но быстро оправившись, Соник вновь ринулся в бой. Однако противник легко отражал его атаки, было видно, что ежи равны друг другу по силе и не уступали друг другу.

— Ха! И это всё? — насмехался полосатый. — Я думал, что ты можешь и лучше.

— Тогда как тебе это?

Соник снова пошёл в атаку, но он, увы, промахнулся, поскольку другой ёж успел вовремя отскочить. И всё же синий не сдавался и продолжал наносить удары, пока одним из них не ударил таки хвастливого полосатого соплеменника. — Хмпф. Неплохо, — невольно похвалил тот героя, отчего наш синий даже чуть смутился. — Для новичка, — и чёрный, ударив прямо по лицу, отбросил Соника в сторону, что тот прогнул собой фонарный столб. — И всё же… я слегка разочарован тобой… Соник.

Соник, признаться, уже успел прилично выдохнуться. У него и так был непростой день из-за солдат, так дополнением ещё сейчас выступил незнакомый ёж, бегающий также быстро как и он, а также обладающий энергией самого Хаоса.

Поэтому он пока продолжал лежать на земле, переводя дух.

— Соник!!! — вскоре донеслись крики, и через пару минут рядом с колючим героем уже были его верные друзья.

— Соник, с тобой всё хорошо? Соник? — голос лисёнка дрожал от нескрываемого волнения и страха за старшего брата.

— Всё хорошо… ребята… Сейчас… встану… — пробормотал тот, попытавшись встать, но после неудачной попытки подняться на ноги он упал.

— Нет, ёж. Дальше уже мы будем драться, дабы защитить твою честь! — сообщил Наклз и загородил собой младших товарищей. — Слушай сюда, ёж!

Точнее, тёмный ёж! Оставь нашего брата в покое и дерись со мной!

— И со мной тоже! — вызвался и Тейлз, встав рядом с ехидной.

Полосатый ёж даже не смотрел в сторону верных товарищей своего соперника, как будто они были пустым местом для него. Он скучающе закатил глаза.

— Мне нет дела до вас двоих. Вы не достойны моего внимания.

— Ах так! — рассердился Наклз. — Ну тогда я заставлю тебя обратить на нас внимание, тёмный ёж! — и красный воин набросился на наглеца. Тот лишь украдкой глянул на него, а после внезапно испарился, так что и Наклз не смог добраться до чужака.

— Аргх! Ты бесчестен, тёмный ёж! Ты только навлекаешь на себя позор, прячась от меня и моего праведного гнева!

— Ты не мой соперник, красный, поэтому подостынь. Мы можем и в другой сразиться, а сейчас я пришёл за синим ежом, — друзья удивились, увидев чёрно-алого на верхушке фонаря.

— Ты не получишь Соника, кем бы ты ни был! — вступился за лучшего друга Тейлз. Он аж весь распушился в гневе.

— Да! И неужто ты боишься моих кулаков? — съязвил Наклз, ударив друг от друга кулаками, и от удара по ним пробежались мелкие красные молнии. — Вы двое, лишь пустая трата моего драгоценного времени, — спокойно ответил им ёж. — И я прибыл сюда только ради всемизвестного «Синего Правосудия». Однако я думал, что наш славный синий герой куда сильнее и способнее, чем то, каким я его сейчас вижу…

— Я… Ещё… Не… Закончил… Самозванец! — прокричал Соник, весь засветившись молниями. — И я покажу тебе, на что способны герои, когда их недооценивают и принижают! — синий ёж вновь кинулся на противника. Тот довольно ухмыльнулся.

— Вот этого я и ожидал увидеть от тебя, «Самозванец», — расплылся в улыбке его полосатый сородич, после чего также весь заискрился молниями, только разве что красного цвета, а затем, свернувшись клубком, понёсся в сторону героя.

Соник тоже свернулся искрящимся голубым шариком на лету, а потом оба ежа ударились друг о друга. Их отбросило в разные стороны, но то не помешало им вернуться к схватке.

С каждой атакой отдавало яркими сине-красными вспышками света.

Создавалось ощущение, будто кто-то устроил световое шоу.

Тейлзу и Наклзу пришлось даже отвернуться, прищурившись, чтоб не ослепнуть от такого зрелища.

Ну, а два колючих клубка продолжались ещё какое-то время кружиться и вертеться, попутно сталкиваясь друг с другом, пока одним мощным ударом они не налетели друг друга, не желая уступать сопернику в силе.

И после такого мощного удара по округе пронеслась огромная волна, из-за которой в домах и прочих зданиях выбило окна и даже вырубило электричество.

Тейлза и Наклза это также коснулось, и их двоих откинуло в сторону.

А два ежа после своего крупного столкновения друг с другом отскочили друг от друга. Каждый из них, тяжело дыша, успел прилично выдохнуться. — Очень впечатляет, синий ёж, — переводя дыхание, произнёс чёрный с красным ёж. — Ты действительно сумел показать мне свою силу.

Соник даже не нашёлся, что и ответить на похвалу. К тому же, он после слов противника ожидал подвоха, как и в прошлый раз.

— Однако тебе… — вскоре продолжил полосатый, — ещё многое предстоит познать… — он выпрямился. — Присоединяйся ко мне, Соник… И ты…познаешь истинную суть силы, заключённой в тебе…

Соник был в шоке от услышанного. Он обернулся к друзьям. Те приходили в себя от мощного взрыва, устроенного ежами. И затем, совладав с собой, синий ёж ответил собрату:

— Нет, ни за что! Я ни за что не стану помогать такому преступнику как ты! — Хмпф, — фыркнул тот. — Это немного печально слышать… Но я уверен, что со временем ты всё же передумаешь, особенно после беготни от тех солдатиков… — и словно в подтверждение его словам послышались громкие сирены полицейских и специальных военных машин, шумное стрекотание вертолётов, а также неподалёку появились световые круги от прожекторов. — А теперь прощай, Соник. Мы ещё встретимся. Вот увидишь, — загадочно улыбнулся полосатый ёж и, прежде чем уйти при помощи «Хаос Контроля», добавил на прощание. — И да… Я Шэдоу… Ёжик Шэдоу… — а потом он исчез.

— Синий ёж! Ни с места! Ты арестован! Руки за голову, стой на месте и не сопротивляйся! — послышалось потом из громкоговорителей.

— Соник, что мы будем делать? — крикнул другу лисёнок. Соник не сразу сообразил, что делать, ибо всё ещё не отошёл от только что произошедшего с ним.

— Ты и Наклз бегите отсюда, со всех ног! Вернитесь к Тому и Мэдди! А я де останусь здесь и отвлеку внимание ГАН на себя! — скомандовал синий ёж и уже приготовился к бегу, как друзья его окликнули:

— Но, Соник, мы не можем бросить тебя!

— Лис верно говорит, ёж! Мы соклановцы, одна семья, а потому вместе должны справиться с трудностями!

— Ребята, я ценю вашу помощь, честно! — обратился к ним Соник. — Но я знаю, что делать! К тому же, если что-то пойдёт не так, то вы с Томом и Мэдди сможете разработать новый план! А теперь уходите! Сейчас же!

— Но… Соник… — произнёс Тейлз, поскольку не желал оставлять лучшего друга один на один с га́новцами.

— Ты слышал его, лис. Пошли скорее, — поторопил его Наклз, и лисёнок, бросив печальный взгляд на ежа, взлетел на своих хвостах и направился прочь из города вместе с ехидной.

«По крайней мере, хотя бы они будут в безопасности…» — пронеслось в голове у Соника. Он посмотрел ребятам вслед с улыбкой на лице, а после побежал вперёд, навстречу солдатам.

Также во время бега перед его глазами вновь предстал тот самый полосатый ёж, представившийся Шэдоу.

Ха! Шэдоу… Неужто в самом деле того так зовут? Парня, который чем-то напоминал синего? Не может же быть такое, чтобы Шэдоу… оказался двойником Соника?.. Или, по крайней мере, подобием двойника?..

Но вот, что странно… Почему-то Сонику тот странный ёж… действительно показался знакомым… Но только… откуда он мог того знать?..

«Сейчас не время гоняться за видениями, Соник! Сосредоточься! Нужно увести солдат как можно дальше от Тейлза и Наклза, чтобы они не пострадали! Сосредоточься! Беги быстрее!» — рыкнув про себя, размышлял юный ёж, не останавливаясь бежать. Вскоре за ним вновь началась погоня.

Соник мог бы посмеяться или высказать какие-либо шуточки, однако он не стал этого делать, ибо ситуация была слишком накалённой и серьёзной, от которой требовалось внимание ежа, если тот не собирался быть схваченным военными.

***

Ну, а на вершине утёса, у края леса со стороны на погоню глядел Шэдоу. — Ха! Глупый ежонок… Ты ещё пока не знаешь, что ждёт тебя дальше… И всё же я не сомневаюсь, что когда ты узнаешь правду, то ты изменишь своё мнение и вернёшься в свою семью… Настоящую семью… После чего, мы сможем свершить свою месть… А пока что… беги, Соник… Беги, пока можешь… — он ухмыльнулся. — И будь к нашей новой встрече… брат… — он зловеще рассмеялся, а потом со словами «Хаос Контроль!» он исчез в яркой вспышке.

The Promise

This fanfiction was written before the release of the third Sonic movie, so this story can be considered his alternate universe...

— Soon the colony will come out of orbit and destroy this pathetic planet Earth, along with its damned people… Soon humanity will perish, and then… Then you will be avenged, Maria..." the black hedgehog with red stripes mused aloud, looking at the Earth through the porthole.

A moment later, the metal door opened, letting in a yellow two-tailed fox cub and a red echidna.

"If the coordinates are correct, then we will soon find the Chaos emeralds and the Master Emerald, and possibly Sonic along with them," Tails explained to Knuckles. Suddenly, they slowed down when they noticed a red-eyed hedgehog.

—Shadow! — The fox cub called out to him. The hedgehog turned in response.

"Who do I see? The fox and the echidna. The so—called blue hedgehog family," he quipped.

— Do you know where Sonic is?" We need to find him urgently! Otherwise, we won't be able to stop the fall of the ARK colony!

"I have no idea where that hedgehog is." And even if I did, I wouldn't tell you! Especially for such pitiful and insignificant creatures like you…

—Pathetic?" Insignificant?! — Knuckles screamed, covered with red lightning from anger. — Now I'll show you what such pitiful and insignificant people can do!

—Knuckles, no! We don't have time for fights," Tails stood in front of Echidna, stopped his friend, and then turned back to the black and red hedgehog. "Shadow, please help us. We can't save the world from destruction without Sonic."

— Hmm. I don't understand why you're worried about him.… Besides, I also don't understand why he chose you over me as his blood brother.

—A brother?" Tails and Knuckles were surprised.

- Yes. Although all this is probably not important now. Soon, the colony will fall on the planet, thereby destroying everything.

"We can't let that happen!" We need to prevent this before it's too late! Shadow, please help us stop this! — Why? What's the point of saving everyone if we're going to die sooner or later anyway? — the hedgehog asked them, and then continued, gradually raising his tone. "Besides, these people deserved to die! They took the life of my dear friend! They killed Maria! And she hadn't done anything wrong to them!" — he shouted, and his scarlet eyes turned bright red, and red lightning appeared on his skin.

"I know there were bad people who did this to you... but not all people are bad."… There are some good ones. Besides, most of the people living on the planet are innocent of anything. These people don't know what happened to you and Maria.…

— So let them find out! Let them know about my revenge!

"Shadow, listen to me.… If Sonic is your brother, then help him.… Help save humanity… After all, he's your family.…

— It's not for you to judge who my family is, little fox… Why would you say that about her?

— Because Sonic is our friend and brother. He's our family too. And for the sake of a family, you can do anything..." explained Tails. "You'd do anything for Maria, wouldn't you?"

And then Shadow, grinning, couldn't stand it and attacked the fox cub, grabbing him by the neck and pinning him against the wall.

"Don't you dare tell me what Maria wanted and what she didn't want."… You didn't know her..." the hedgehog hissed ominously, sparkling with red lightning, and then shouted. — I knew her better than anyone, like no one else! And I know exactly what she would like!

"Shadow, that's probably not true."… I'm sure you're wrong..." the two—tailed croaked, unable to get out of the striped hedgehog's tight grip.

Suddenly, the grip loosened. Tails slid to the floor and saw Knuckles blocking him, while Shadow was lying a little further away on the floor.

"Don't you dare touch the fox cub!" Otherwise, you'll have to deal with me! Echidna shouted, banging his fists against each other.

"You want a fight, then? You're going to get it now..." the hedgehog hissed, getting up, and then rushed at the echidna, who hurried to meet him.

— Chaos Control! Shadow shouted and teleported, hitting Knuckles from behind so that he rolled over and fell.

Then the hedgehog looked at Tails with its bright red eyes. He slowly moved towards the yellow fox. The man was afraid to move under his gaze.

Shadow raised his right hand, which he was about to use to launch his power at the fox cub. Tails closed his eyes and turned to him:

— Shadow, I'm sorry about what happened to you and Maria, honestly.… But innocent people shouldn't suffer because of your hatred! I know there is a better way than this. After all, you can save them! It's not too late to fix everything! You could give them all a chance to be happy!

Shadow suddenly froze as he heard the fox cub's last words. Looking at him, it was as if he saw not a trembling little fox, but a sweet golden-haired blue-eyed girl whom he loved with all his heart.

— M... Maria?.. — he whispered. —No...This is can't be real… This… It can't be... no..." he staggered away from Tails. He was surprised by the reaction of the dark hedgehog, as he expected a blow from him.

"Tails, are you okay?" — the fox heard Knuckles's cry, who ran to him. "Did he hurt you?"

- No. I'm fine, Knuckles. Everything's fine..." Tails glanced at Shadow again, staring at nowhere and holding his hands behind his head. Knuckles got ready for a new round, but the fox cub took echidna by the hand.

—Wait, Knuckles. No need.

- Why? He attacked us.

"We don't have time for a fight right now. We have to hurry. We've spent enough time," he explained to his friend, and then they walked on together.

Meanwhile, Shadow was remembering the very moment when he said goodbye to Maria.…

***

Memory…

— Maria, let me out of here! You don't know what you're doing! I have to protect you! — Shadow shouted, trying to get out of his confinement. At that time, the girl was tapping on the keyboard of a device that would lower the capsule down. After a moment, she smiled and turned to a friend:

—Shadow, can you please promise me something?.. I know the soldiers are coming here soon, and they've done a lot of bad things, but... don't hold hatred against all people, Shadow. There are other, very good people in the world. I would like you to protect such people and save them. After all, they need to be given a chance to live a happy life. Would you do this for me, Shadow?.. Will you promise me? ..

—Maria...— was all the hedgehog said, looking at his friend from the capsule.

Suddenly, one of the soldiers burst into the room.

— Don't move! — he shouted.

Maria, frowning, prepared to press the lever with which she would allow the Perfect Life Form to escape.

"Don't you dare pull the lever! Can you hear me?" — The soldier shouted, aiming his weapon at the girl. "If you pull the lever, I'll have to kill you!"

Shadow, kicking and shoving, tried to get out of his confinement. But the glass of the capsule was too strong to break. And the hedgehog had no choice but to watch what was happening.

— Maria, no! Don't do this! Shadow shouted. Maria smiled at her best friend for the last time and pressed the lever with tears in her eyes:

— Sayonara, Shadow the hedgehog…

Then a shot rang out.

— MARIA-A-A-A!!! — a hedgehog's cry was heard as the capsule ejected.

The end of the memory…

***

— Maria… I promise… I promise that I will save the planet that you cherished so much.… I'll fix everything," Shadow whispered to himself, wiping tears from his eyes. And then he hurried after the friends of the blue hedgehog.

***

A huge lizard equipped with life-sustaining technology, the Biolizard, kept Sonic and his friends away from the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald.

— Sonic, what are we going to do? Tails asked his leader.

"We're going to have to fight him, Tails. There is no other way out. I'll take care of him, and you and Knuckles…

"You'd better leave it to me,— Shadow's voice suddenly came to everyone. "I'll fight him, and the three of you go to the emeralds."

Tails and Knuckles were a little unsure about the black hedgehog, but Sonic nodded to him and agreed.

— Alright. Follow me, guys!

Shadow wasted no time attacking the techno lizard using the chaos spear. The monster roared and attacked the hedgehog in response, who managed to dodge.

"I will keep my word, Maria. I will save the world for you. Even if I have to give my life," he mused as he continued his battle with the Biolizard.

Обещание

Данный фанфик писался до выхода третьего фильма по Сонику, поэтому эту историю можно считать его альтернативной вселенной...

— Скоро колония сойдёт с орбиты и уничтожит эту жалкую планету Земля, вместе с её проклятыми людишками… Скоро человечество погибнет, и тогда… Тогда ты будешь отомщена, Мария… — размышлял вслух чёрный с красными полосами ёж, глядя на Землю через иллюминатор.

Спустя мгновение металлическая дверь открылась, впуская в помещение жёлтого двухвостого лисёнка и красную ехидну.

— Если координаты верны, то скоро мы найдём изумруды хаоса и Мастер Изумруд, и, возможно, вместе с ними и Соника, — объяснял Тейлз Наклзу. Вдруг они притормозили, когда заметили красноглазого ежа.

— Шэдоу! — окликнул его лисёнок. Ёж в ответ повернулся.

— Кого я вижу? Лис и ехидна. Так называемая семейка синего ежа, — съязвил он.

— Ты знаешь, где Соник? Нам нужно срочно его найти! Иначе нам не остановить падение колонии АРК!

— Я без понятия, где тот ёж. А если бы и знал, то не сказал бы! Особенно таким жалким и ничтожным существам, как вы…

— Жалкие?! Ничтожные?! — вскрикнул Наклз, покрываясь от гнева красными молниями. — Сейчас я покажу тебе, на что такие жалкие и ничтожные могут!

— Наклз, нет! У нас нет времени на драки, — встав перед ехидной, Тейлз остановил друга, а после вновь обратился к чёрному с красным ежу. — Шэдоу, прошу, помоги. Нам без Соника не спасти мир от его гибели.

— Хмф. Не понимаю, почему вы беспокоитесь за него… В прочем, я также не понимаю, почему он выбрал вас, а не меня, как своего кровного брата.

— Брата?! — удивились Тейлз и Наклз.

— Да. Хотя всё это, наверное, теперь не важно. Уже в скором времени колония упадёт на планету, тем самым всё уничтожив.

— Нам нельзя этого допустить! Нужно предотвратить это, пока не стало поздно! Шэдоу, прошу, помоги нам остановить это!

— Зачем? Какой смысл спасать всех, если мы рано или поздно всё равно умрём? — спрашивал их ёж, а затем продолжил, постепенно повышая тон. — К тому же эти людишки заслужили смерть! Они лишили жизни моего близкого друга! Они убили Марию! А ведь она не сделала им ничего плохого! — крикнул он, и его алые глаза стали ярко-красными, а на шкуре появились красные молнии.

— Я знаю, что были плохие люди, которые сделали это с тобой… Однако не все люди плохие… Есть и хорошие. К тому же, большинство людей, живущих на планете, ни в чём не виновны. Эти люди не знают того, что случилось с тобой и Марией…

— Так пусть узнают! Пусть узнают о моей мести!

— Шэдоу, послушай… Раз Соник твой родной брат, то помоги ему… Помоги спасти человечество… Всё таки он — твоя семья…

— Не тебе судить, кто является моей семьёй, лисёныш… С чего тебе это говорить о ней?

— Потому что Соник наш друг и брат. Он тоже наша семья. А ради семьи можно пойти на что угодно… — объяснил Тейлз. — Ведь ради Марии ты бы что угодно сделал, верно?

И тут Шэдоу, оскалившись, не выдержал и набросился на лисёнка, схватив того за шею, и прижал того к стене.

— Не смей говорить мне: чего хотела Мария, а чего — нет… Ты не знал её… — зловеще прошипел ёж, искрясь красными молниями, а затем прокричал. — Я знал её лучше всех, как никто другой! И я точно знаю, чего бы она хотела!

— Шэдоу, наверняка, это не так… Я уверен, ты ошибаешься… — прохрипел двухвостый, не в силах выбраться из крепкой хватки полосатого ежа.

Внезапно хватка ослабла. Тейлз соскальзнул на пол и увидел, как Наклз загородил его собой, в то время как Шэдоу лежал чуть поодаль на полу.

— А ты не смей трогать лисёнка! Иначе тебе придётся иметь дело со мной! — крикнул ехидна, ударив кулаками друг о друга.

— Хочешь драки, значит? Ты её сейчас получишь… — поднявшись, прошипел ёж, а после кинулся на ехидну, тот поспешил ему на встречу.

— Хаос Контроль! — крикнул Шэдоу и, телепортировавшись, ударил Наклза сзади, что тот перекувыркнулся и упал.

Затем ёж взглянул на Тейлза своими ярко-красными глазами. Он неспеша двинулся к жёлтому лису. Тот под его взглядом боялся сдвинуться с места.

Шэдоу поднял правую руку, которой он собирался запустить свою силу в лисёнка. Тейлз, зажмурившись, обратился к нему:

— Шэдоу, мне жаль, что случилось с тобой и Марией, честно… Но из-за твоей ненависти не должны страдать невинные люди! Я знаю, что есть путь лучше, чем этот. В конце концов, ты можешь их спасти! Ещё не поздно всё исправить! Ты мог бы дать им всем шанс быть счастливыми!

Шэдоу вдруг замер, как услышал последние слова лисёнка. Взглянув на того, он будто увидел не дрожащего маленького лиса, а милую златовласую голубоглазую девочку, которую он всем сердцем любил.

— М… Мария?.. — прошептал он. — Нет… Нет… Это… Этого не может быть… Нет… — он, пошатываясь, отошёл от Тейлза. Тот был удивлён реакцией тёмного ежа, поскольку ждал от него удара.

— Тейлз, ты в порядке? — услышал лис крик Наклза, прибежавшего к тому. — Он не ранил тебя?

— Нет. Я в порядке, Наклз. Всё хорошо… — Тейлз снова бросил взгляд на Шэдоу, уставившегося в некуда и держащего руки за голову. Наклз приготовился для нового раунда, но лисёнок взял ехидну за руку.

— Стой, Наклз. Не надо.

— Почему? Ведь он напал на нас.

— У нас сейчас нет времени на драку. Нам надо спешить. Мы итак достаточно потратили времени, — пояснил он другу, и после они вместе пошли дальше.

Тем временем Шэдоу вспоминал тот самый момент, когда попрощался с Марией…

***

Воспоминание…

— Мария, выпусти меня отсюда! Ты же не знаешь, что делаешь! Я должен защищать тебя! — кричал Шэдоу, пытаясь выбраться из своего заточения. Девочка в это время нажимала на клавиатуре устройства, которое бы спустило вниз капсулу. Спустя мгновение она, улыбнувшись, обратилась к другу:

— Шэдоу, можешь, пожалуйста, пообещать мне кое-что?.. Я знаю, что солдаты скоро сюда придут, и они сделали много плохого, но… Не держи ненависть на всех людей, Шэдоу. В мире есть другие, очень хорошие люди. Я бы хотела, чтобы ты защищал таких людей и спасал их. В конце концов, им нужно дать шанс прожить счастливыми. Ты сделаешь это ради меня, Шэдоу?.. Ты обещаешь мне?..

— Мария… — только и произнёс ёж, глядя на свою подругу из капсулы.

Тут внезапно в помещение ворвался один из солдат.

— Ни с места! — прокричал он.

Мария, нахмурившись, приготовилась нажать на рычаг, с помощью которого она дала бы спастись Совершенной Форме Жизни.

— Не смей нажимать на рычаг! Ты слышишь меня? — прокричал солдат, нацеливаясь своим оружием на девочку. — Если нажмёшь на рычаг, мне придётся убить тебя!

Шэдоу, пинаясь и толкаясь, пытался выбраться из заточения. Но стекло капсулы было слишком крепким, чтоб его сломать. И ежу ничего не оставалось, как наблюдать за происходящим.

— Мария, нет! Не делай этого! — кричал Шэдоу. Мария, в последний раз улыбнувшись лучшему другу, со слезами на глазах нажала на рычаг:

— Прощай, ёж Шэдоу…

Потом раздался выстрел.

— МАРИЯ-Я-Я-Я!!! — донёсся крик ежа, когда капсула катапультировалась.

Конец воспоминания…

***

— Мария… Я обещаю… Я обещаю, что спасу планету, которой ты так дорожила… Я всё исправлю… — прошептал про себя Шэдоу, вытирая навернувшиеся на глаза слёзы. А после он поспешил вслед за друзьями синего ежа.

***

Огромный ящер, оснащенный жизнеобеспечивающей технологией, Биолизард, не подпускал Соника и его друзей к изумрудам хаоса и Мастер Изумруду.

— Соник, что мы будем делать? — спросил Тейлз своего лидера.

— Придётся с ним драться, Тейлз. Иного выхода нет. Я его беру на себя, а вы с Наклзом…

— Лучше предоставьте это мне, — неожиданно для всех донёсся голос Шэдоу. — Я сражусь с ним, а вы, трое, идите к изумрудам.

Тейлз и Наклз, были немного не уверены насчёт чёрного ежа, но Соник, кивнув ему, согласился.

— Хорошо. За мной, ребята!

Шэдоу, не теряя времени даром, атаковал техно-ящера, используя хаос копья. Чудище взревело и набросилось на ежа в ответ, тот успел увернуться.

«Я сдержу своё слово, Мария. Я спасу мир ради тебя. Даже если придётся отдать свою жизнь», — размышлял он, продолжая свою битву с Биолизардом.

OMG it so GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

Chapter seven is up!

Day 7: Free day

I made a beach episode for goodbye (I promise, last story is sweet and lovely. Anyone who read previous ones deserves fluff and good vibes)

Thank you so much @femmescripter for doing this week with me, it was a lot of fun and still will be for me when I’ll read the rest of the fanfics you wrote! Also thank you again @shadowblaze001 for creating this wonderful week with great prompts. Also also good luck to our new meat in this week @king-charlieiii. we will watch your career with great interest!

Now storytime:

Summer heat came earlier than usually and that means earlier pool parties! Goof family was spending day with Petes in a backyard with big swimming pool.

PJ unlike the others was rather gloomy today. He came to Max in order to „have a talk”

”So where to start with… have you and Bradley ever had a weak time or something like that? You know, when you get annoyed or disinterested in each other?”

”Peej. You know us since yesterday? We almost broke up two times. Relationship crisis became our theme for a first year.”

”Yeah, but like after this whole time do you still have situasions like that?”

”PJ, what is going on? Are you and Mocha on a bad terms?”

”I don’t know. For some time now she gets irritated by everything and I feel like we’re drifting away.”

”Hey now. Have you asked what happened?”

”She always says ‚nothing’ or hums at me.”

”So it’s a tough one. Maybe she just doesn’t feel loved enough. When was the last time you told her she’s pretty or showed her something? I don’t see you making that often.”

”Why would I? Mocha knows she’s pretty.”

”Peej.” Max glared at friend with crossed arms

”What?”

„I guess we’ve found the problem. Of course she knows, but when you don’t hear it from your loved one you start doubting it.”

”I don’t think it works like that.”

”It works exactly like that.”

”Oh really?”

”Really. And I will show you the living proof of that. BRADLEY! COME HERE!”

Maximilians fiance started coming towards duo

”WHY are you yelling at me!?”

”Hi honey. You see, PJ has a little problem here. Can you show him what I mean when I say someone might know they are beautiful and still need approval?”

”Wha-„

”I’ll tell you the rest later.”

”You and your topics again. How to even show it?”

”Maybe on yourself and that piercing of yours?”

Bradley got red for a moment but quickly started explaining what Max had on mind.

”Well, I felt… really down one time… for a long time. Fuck, I can’t explain things like this. And well… it also felt awful that all of the couples around heard from each other what partner likes in them but I didn’t. I mean- I know we can’t do a lot of the things like ‚normal’ couples do, especially in public, what I mean is… even when I was telling Max what I like in him I myself felt like I don’t receive the same amount of attention, that Max is disinterested in me and I started doubting in myself. Basically I spiraled, other things happened and I got even worse - honestly I have no idea how you lasted with me through it” Bradley looked at his husband-to-be for a moment „-but it got better when Max once came to me at my worst and told me that he always liked my nipple and clavicle piercing and that I should show it more often near him. This… really made me feel better. So yes- telling someone they look good makes world a better place or something.”

”Thank you sweetie”

”No problem princess. Hope you’ll join us soon in the water. Now-” Bradley stretched himself „- I will go and do a sweet revenge on Pistol for that macaroon attack”

”Don’t worry PJ. It really works. Won’t solve everything but it’ll open a person up. Treat it like a first step okay?”

”I guess I’ll try”

On a next day Max got a message from Peej. The SMS read:

”It worked! Thanks Max!”

Maximilian couldn’t help but giggle

”Whats so funny Maxie?”

Bradley hanged himself on Max looking at his face

”Nothing, just PJ discovering art of sweetness and compliments”

”Good for him” Bradleys and Maxs eyes locked. Goof served a short kiss on the lips. Bradley made him taste much longer and stronger one. The strength however made the two fall on a couch.

”So… what nice thing you will tell?”

”I love you. I love your fluffy hair and your crooked teeth and your piercing. I love you whole”

”I love you too Bradly”

(Hi! Here’s me the author. Thank you for reading this short story/stories. It means a world to me! If you enjoyed it (or not- valid) tell me if you want to get a bit more from this story or ask me questions about it. Also I’d like to hear some advice/critique because I’m not native english speaker and never thought of writing something like at all. I did it only for Sasori week once and decided to cultivate my little tradition. Actually I never intended to make that story leave my head but here we are haha. I know that some dialogues are unnatural, because I had to infodump certain things, but what else you know. So again - questions, critique, continuation or not. It would be great to hear this all! <3)

Day 6: Pocky challenge

Storytime:

This one’s longer. Decided to give this one a bit more time and care than the rest.

July heat came and with it invitation for Uppercrusts and relatives yearly family gathering. Bradley asked Max to come with him for bravery sake; he knew it’ll be humiliating meeting.

First person to greet was Bradleys oldest sister Felicity. She was tall, blonde woman with fierce blue eyes and hypnotizing long hair down to half of her hips, her nose was even smaller than brothers.

”Good to see you two I guess. Are you sure it is a good idea to bring your boy into this circus tent?”

”All we have to survive is closest family”

”As every year… I’m going to Claire, you’ll find me near her or other cousins” Felicity came closer to Bradley and whispered „If Victor will say anything go straight to me”

”I’m not a child”

”But he is an idiot. Can you believe he thought he can disown you despite last will?”

”Not only him”

”Oh yeah. Our dear mother in law, the saint of the saints”

”I will go to others ok?”

”If you want~”

Gathering was going rather smoothly. Some were opposed of Maximilian being near them, some were more than thrilled to finally meet ‚a partner’ although it was a shock for everyone that Bradley meant ‚boyfriend’ by that. In the meantime Max also met younger siblings of Bradley - half-sister Emma was shy, short haired dark brunette with hazel eyes. Opposite to Felicity she was rather thick and very short. She’s only 14 after all, she has time. Her expression was an enigma to Max, her eyes weren’t as wild as ‚genetic’ Uppercrusts, but weren’t gloomy either. This eyes - as well as her as a whole - were apathetic and bland as if Emma wanted to blend in as much as she could. Dylan on the other hand, the youngest brother and favourite child had everything Bradley and Felicity were jealous of - his hair had similar lenght as Bradley’s, but were pure, light blonde, not ‚dirty’ blonde like some refer to Felicity’s hair. His eyes were also almond shaped, but more delicate and the color blue was lighter and richer unlike ‚dirty’ blue Bradley and Felicity used to hear from their mother, his nose small but not too small, his character was charming, but wasn’t a ‚wild horse whom must be beaten’ as uncles would refer to Dylans siblings.

Now came time for unavoidable. Victor. That green-eyed, dark-haired snake. As soon as his sight caught the two, he appeared behind them with devilish smirk.

”Well, well, well…” older half-brother started „… who do we have here? Have you lost last remains of your dignity? Bringing that… rat between us.”

”If I read correctly, I can bring anyone I want. Isn’t it right Victor?”

Brothers face got red and lips disfigured grotesquely.

”You think it’s so funny huh? Showing around your deviancy and sick fetishes?”

”Seems like it’s you problem considering no one else minds my partners presence except you. When we are at the topic of fetish tho- weren’t you the one who blew up a yacht party by begging random girls to strangle you?”

„Bradley. Maybe we should go.” Max felt that atmosphere is getting out of hand.

”Not now.”

”Let’s go to Felicity ok?” Labradoodle held Bradley’s hand trying to pull him away

”It’s NOT a big deal.” Bradley shoved his arm and glared at Max.

”Better listen to your boy-toy playboy and go back to sissy”

”HOW did you call him!?” Bradley almost jumped on Victor with fury. His boyfriend was the only thing holding him from beating him in front of everyone.

”C’mon Bradley. Go.” Max gripped Brad and tried to pull him back again.

”Fffine” Chodsky pes barely hissed through teeth. Victor was shouting other things but Bradley muted himself. He felt sudden lost of any strenght.

The rest of the day went slowly. Not good in any means But at least not tragic. Maximilian was tired of many dramas and humors from Bradleys family. It made him look beaten down. He and Bradley went to their bedroom to calm down.

(Bradley)

I’ve seen this face several times now. Depressed and lost. Max tends to get drained from stuff like that, it’s not his enviroment and totally out of his element. I’m still mad at myself that I let my family say so many bitter words towards him, but what was I expecting?

„I will make you wish you stayed shut” still rings in my ears after all those months. I admit - I blew the fact that Victor knows about us out of proportions. Feli is right, I get driven by emotions too quickly and too strong, I still am a lost child near my older siblings.

All I can do now is try to make my dear Max feel better. Glad I bought perfect sweet for that occasion.

”Hey, Max! How do you feel?”

”I’m… okay”

”Are you suuuuurrrrreeee~” Time for special maneuver. Getting close face to face and kissing on the cheek.

”Yeah. I’m pretty sure” Then why are you preparing to rot in the bed? Dumbass.

”Yeah. Totally” Now for maneuver number 2. Lay with him and boop his nose.

”If you want to piss me off and feel bad than congratulations! You did it!” he sat rapidly

”Knew that.”

”Knew what!?”

”You always get all shy and timid and than blow within seconds when something is wrong”

”Wow. After 8 months you get so good at deciphering my every move”

”So… if you won’t tell at least lay with me a bit more. I got cemented into this bed now”

”You really are insufferable”

Manouver number 3- reach my arms to him, palms signalizing to lay on me and cuddle

”I know~”

Max snuggled into me and sighted loudly. It was his time to lay in quiet a little bit. Of course after maybe five minutes I’ll give him pocky. Faster if I’ll get bored and will let him win in one competition.

(Max)

Bradley started looking for something in his bag. I’m too tired to care honestly, today was a nightmare. Just thinking it’s going to be like that every time makes me sick. Oh man are those pocky!? I love pocky!

”Ever heard of pocky challenge babe?” Bradley asked

”Not really.”

”It’s easy. We take opposite ends of the same pocky, eat it, and than meet in the middle. The one who breaks the kiss loses.”

”Seems fine”

”Soo. Wanna try?”

”*sight* Why not.”

We started in kinda awkward position, looking at each other. Bradley started pulling slowly, we went head to head, I got focused on eating my end of the stick. We are almost in the middle, just let me swallow my part OOP.

Bradley sealed a kiss with me, just lips touching for now. After short while I felt his tongue pressing on me, it was nice as always, his french kisses always make me forget about the world, his hands around me pulling me towards his well-built chest, Bradley jumps on my hips, head above me, my hands are on autopilot going up and down one playing with those beautiful, soft hair, the other caressing sculpted back, oh the delicacy, the love, he makes me feel like the most important person in the world. Bradley pushes me down on a mattress and continues the unbroken pleasure. I feel him getting up a little above me, his hair still gently touching my skin.

”You won.” he says while I see myself in his half closed eyes.

His smile is worth more than anything. (Even when he pisses me off to the moon and back).

Day 5: realization

I can’t believe it’s ending and I still read only 1 prompt from femmescripter. I need free time. I’m writing my stories for hour or so because I can physically give only so much attention to it :’^(

Storytime (this time without sad sub-plot I promise):

(Bradley)

I admitted to myself I love you at the end of november, when while driving I saw you on pedestrian street. Angry, cold, unlike you. I’m glad I made you get into my car; when we sat on folded back seats and started eating and drinking, when we were covering eachother with blanket; you finally brightened.

”Why won’t you ask what happened?” I heard.

I never associated this question with genuine concern. It was always a mind play for me in my worst years. How to tell you that?

”Why would I? If you want say it yourself.” Bravo me.

”It’ll be nice if you’d ask. That would mean you at least care.”

Oh Max. Getting on my nerves already, I am too weak to fight.

”I don’t like that question.”

”That’s all?”

”That’s all.”

”Can I tell you this?”

”You can say anything.”

”Even that your older sister is hot as hell?”

”WHAT!?”

You… started laughing. Very, very loud. It was… pleasant, pretty.

”You should have seen your face! Hahahaha, Jesus man haha. How are you not blowing your brain out with our trio? Ahyuk”

My heart was about to escape my ribcage and run to you, my smile subconsciously appeared. I thought for a moment that maybe this is how love feels.

You calmed down. Looked at me with your onyx eyes and said a phrase I will always remember.

”So this is your honest smile? Maybe you should use it more often”

You made it even wider.

(Max)

How did you know I would agree to a date? Was it a wild card or you knew something I didn’t yet but now am sure of?

My thoughts were just like that before seeing your smirky face „Ice rink? I never even wore ice skates before. Is it like regular skating? Why I agreed to it? Why was I so excited on a word ‚date’? Are you just mocking me? Or maybe it’s genuine.” I’m still mad that it was probably you figuring my own self sooner than I did.

Ice was much more unstable than asphalt, my legs were melting and you just stood there.

”Are you sure you don’t need any help?”

”NO. Give me a second.”

What am I talking about? I’m barely standing and fighting for my life clinging onto barriers. I won’t admit I can’t ice skate, that I am scared. Ain’t no way.

”Ugh!” Oh no. Your voice full of irritation went through my spine. Don’t approach me, don’t approach me, don’t approach me… DAMMIT!

”Hold my hands”

”No, thanks. I’ll figure that ou-„ You bastard you grabbed me!

”Listen, shape your feet into V…”

”Ookay”

”See? You’re fine. I’m holding you, you are steady. It’s fine” Steady? It is anything but steady!

”Now. Pull dominant leg away and go to me. Just like skating”

”mhm” I’m moving forward, it’s fine, it’s fine. No! Hell it’s not! It’s not at all… wait, I feel your grip getting stronger.

”I’m here, don’t worry. Look at me and it’ll be fine” Why is your voice so calming? Not that I mind but… how are you doing that? Making me feel so safe?

We are moving forward, I start getting it. I can do this!

”Let me go”

”Max, I don’t think it’s good idea”

”C’mon. I will do it”

”As you wish~”

Heck yeah! I’m doing it. I’m great. It is great. It… it starts to get unsteable again. Oh no. OH NO. OH NONONONO ARGH-

I barely got caught, one millimeter further and I’d be on a ground. I feel like made of jelly.

”Hahahahaha! What were you saying? It’s not THAT easy princess hahaha”

Looking at you, laughing, holding me from that angle… oh cupid you really are cruel. I don’t think I’m ready for relationship.

”Are you alright Max?” Your ocean-blue eyes widened. That cloudy-sky, royal, deep blue looking at me. And your hair waving in a wind like a sea of weeds, with all the shades of a plane tree. Even your brows look stuning when you look at me all concerned. You are all mine at this moment and this is comforting like comfy bed after tiring day, like cold drink in summer heat, like… us seating in your car.

I changed my mind. I must be with you in a relationship.

Day 4: AU

I decided to do my own AU in spawn of „oh my god this songs are so good, gotta do something with it”

Everyone here is Rockstars AU (a raw concept)

So basically - Max and Bradley know eachother from highschool (thankfully only for the year. It was Bradleys challenge to make Maxs life personal hell). Both have bad memories from that time so it indeed is a surprise when certain someone knocks to Goof’s family doors.

Max decided to make a band out of spite for Mona breaking up with him yet another, this time final time (I know it sounds bad. I have no braincells). He won’t admit he’s not taking this well, but won’t let himself process his emotions. But to make a band you need 1. Money 2. Someone who already knows industry. And Max doesn’t have any of that.

Bradley has (some) money but fall into reputation of unpleasant to work with and emotion driven, so he already was kicked out of two bands. As a revenge he plans to show how thanks to him and only him total newbies can change into rockstars. Too bad the most perfect candidate is his highschool punching bag. Wait- It’s even BETTER.

Now to the story I’m continuing for the maxley week this time quite long for me:

It’s been half a month since total wreck which was „Bradley situasion”. Max made a deal with Tank and the rest of the gammas to cut off their „pranks” on brunette. The rules are simple:

Bradley joins Team 99

Max remains friends with Bradley till December

Gammas can’t touch Bradley at any point unless any of first two points are broken

Bradley can’t know about any of these

If Max and his troop will achieve this gammas can’t pull any cheat on the X-Games, if not than they’ll have first hand experience what Brad had to endure since lost competition. And according to Tank they’ll need a miracle to make Bradley be friends with anyone.

”It’s already 17 of September. I’ll never do this” Max murmured to himself. Situasion seemed horrendous. The great Uppercrust III is more depressed and closed than anyone could ever imagine, Bobby starts to make scenes „I told you it’s a bad idea!” „People like that doesn’t change” „Don’t you remember what he did?”. It all was replaying in Maximilians head like a broken record.

„Maybe Bobs was right. Bradley is too prideful to receive any help, to broken to even consider someone might like him. How can he be such opposites?”

It seemed hopeless.

The phone started ringing. Who could it be? PJ needs help on a date? Bobby hurt himself? Dad? No, it was Bradley. Wait, what!? Him?

„Hello?” Max still unsure if it’s not a fever dream

”Oh, hi. Can we meet at the skate park? I need to ask you for favour.”

”Sssuuurrrreee”

”Thanks! See you at 5.00.”

That… was weird. It for sure is a fever dream. What would he want? Whyyyyy?

At the park Bradley already was skating. A bit slow and lazy for him, but it was still a lot of improvement. As soon as he saw Max, he stopped and come to him.

”Hey skater boy!” Bradley shouted when approaching.

”Hi. What is the favor you wanted to ask me for?”

”Oh, can’t we start with something more… cozy? Must be down to business right now?”

”You are acting weird. I’m worried you know?”

”Says the one who decided to get me into the team AND open up or something”

”Brad… ley; you scare me. What happened?”

”You won’t let go huh?”

”YOU made me go there”

Brad took a deep breath, looked at black-furred young man and finally went to the point

”My mum died and I need someone to write of what I get from her last will”

”Brad-„ Max gasped „I’m so sorry, I. When and where funeral is? And how can I help I-”

”Woah, slow down. It’s no biggie”

”NO BIGGIE!? YOUR MOTHER DIED.”

”She wasn’t any close to begin with. Really”

Max wasn’t buying it at all. He was even more scared than before. What to do?

”The destination might be a problem tho”

”Where it’ll be”

”Štenovice, in Czech Republic”

”Oh! I wasn’t expecting to be it so far”

”If that’s a problem I’m ok. I’ll just go alone”

”No. I always wanted to see some of the world. I even am a bit into slavic literature so… why Czech actually?”

”My paternal grandfather and mum are from there”

”Oh. Can I know why me?”

”You like jumping on topics aren’t you? I feel safe near you. I still think you should just give up on me but oh well. you kinda grew on me”

Maximilians heart started racing, he couldn’t believe what he just heard. It was relieving and somehow sweet. Now he felt like his mission finally have some sense.

„Sooo since we can call each other friends now-„

”I didn’t say that”

”Let me speak. I was always curious what breed are you. Are we close enough to share it?”

”I think yes. Well… man, I never told anyone what breed I am”

”No one? Like at all?”

”No one”

”It’ll be a pleasure to hear”

”Chodsky pes”

”I never heard of that! I’m labradoodle”

„Nice to know” Bradley finally smiled honestly. He felt at ease and almost like he found a new home. „Do you mind skating now?”

”No if I’ll learn something else about you”

”Maybe you start?”

”I’m into rock music, as said before slavic literature, pizza, anything with cheese really, I’m bi-„ at that moment Max stopped. He didn’t mean to say that.

„Fag” Bradleys word flew like an arrow

”Well” labradoodle felt like blood is leaving his brain „Your turn heh”

”I fell in love with metal, goth music and men”

”Wh…”

”I’m a homo idiot. And you’re pretty bad at hiding it”

All what Max could do was to show a middle finger. In some awful, almost gullible way he also felt at ease. The two finally broke the ice and could start anew and build over what they already have. Too bad someone’s death is the reason of it.

They finally stopped at late afternoon. Both boys felt a bit better yet very tired.

”Are you alright Bradley?”

”Yeah. I’m glad I called you”

”Me too. I want to make sure mourning won’t get better of you”

”It won’t. There’s not much to mourn. But today you gave me many reasons to remember”

The last line stung. There’s still a lot to find out about this chodsky.

Day 3: cuddles

Hehehe more angst and more details to my story

Storytime:

Not me googling Czech synonim to kurwa this time XD

(2 months into relationship)

Max got a message to come to Bradleys dorm urgently. That seemed a bit out of place. He knows Brad long enough to guess something is off.

He came to the door. „Let’s just open it now…” That took much more bravery than expected. Maximillian slowly came in.

„I’m here- mm, Bradley?”

Chodsky was waiting in a small living/bedroom with a deathly glare in his eyes. He was approaching fast with every step heavier then the last.

„THE HELL YOU DID MAX?!”

„I… what?”

„I’LL GIVE YOU WHAT I’LL-„

Dialogue was cut by rapid, tight hug. A teardrop left the corner of Bradleys eye. Max froze, trying to grasp what happened.

„DID YOU TALK TO TANK!?”

„Brad, are you out of your mind? What does this even mean?”

„DID. YOU. TALK. TO. HIM!?”

„No”

„SO HOW DOES MY BROTHER KNOW HUH!?”

This didn’t make any sense. Since Max found out what gammas do to ‚ex-king’ he tried his best to cut it short. Even back then he knew, Bradley doesn’t deserve so much abuse and made a deal even to leave him alone, much to PJs fear and Bobbys anger. Wait… no. It can’t be right. Bobby wouldn’t do that. To be honest he spends more time with fraternity later, but it’s just to „keep an eye” „make sure they follow the deal”. No. NO. NONONONONO! They are best friends. Bobby wouldn’t spill anything. NOT A THING. NO! But what if he did? NO. HE’S NOT LIKE THAT! Never was at least.

As labradoodle tried to understand what Bradleys brother have to do with everything, what exactly he knows, what is even happening; Bradley just fell on the couch. Almost lifeless. As Goof snapped back to reality he finally took off his jacket and went slowly towards the couch.

„What your brother knows? And what Tank has to do with it?”

„IDIOT. Victor was still in the gammas when me and Tank were freshmen. They got along pretty well and still do-”

Max crouched near the couch

„-Tank found out about us. And Vic too.” Bradley said with much effort. Tears started running and grotesque moaning was leaving his body.

Labradoodle just layed next to him, but than was swooped by strong arms. Frozen again he felt his neck getting wet from lovers tears and his lungs barely were getting any air from intense grip. His shirt was pulled so hard by chodsky’s fists, he was afraid it’ll be ripped apart.

„KURVA MAX! WHAT HAVE YOU’VE DONE! I TOLD YOU TO BE CAREFUL!”

„Do you know… what your parents will say. Or if they know. Or is there a chance to-„

„FUCK MY PARENTS! THEY BARELY REMEMBER ABOUT MY EXISTENCE! DAD NAMED ME AFTER HIS FATHER JUST TO NOT FORGET. BUT VICTOR!? THE SON OF THAT SLUT DAD LIVES WITH NOW! OH GOD HE WILL MAKE A USE OUT OF THAT!”

„How?”

„HE WILL”

„But your mother wrote on her last will that you can’t be disinherited”

„CUTING OFF WOULD BE A BLESSING DUFFUS! I TOLD YOU SHE DID IT WITH A PURPOSE TO PISS EVERYONE OFF! ESPECIALLY ME. Spiteful bitch! What to do!?”

After some time any remaining strenght left Bradley and brunette finally loosened his grip. Max sighted still barely understanding what happened. They’ll find a way, he knows it.

As for now - let’s just cuddle and try to calm down. Too many things were said in anger.

Day 2:Concert

Storytime (@femmescripter I stole your labradoodle headcanon, hope you don’t mind):

Max was determined to say this today, at the concert, right. Fucking. Now. This couldn’t wait any second longer, they both knew what they feel for eachother, the hearts are pumping like drums whenever the two even hear the names. „Bradley”, „Brad”, „Ex-king”. All of this words were making Max go back to those short memories with him. PJ knows what he’s planning to sing, Bobby not so much; maybe for the better. When he found out that Goof was about to make Brad join their team, Bob was flaming with fury.

There won’t be better opportunity. So today must be the day.

Bradley didn’t wanted to play with labradoodles emotions, but also knew it is only natural thing to say what he is feeling today. After many dates and few kisses from yesterday. Yeah, he didn’t wanted to play with his own emotions. But Brad was no fool, listening to heart only will lead both men into despair and danger. „Just say I love you but we can’t be together. Just say it” young man was telling himself while trying to stop tears. To stop thinking of what could’ve been.

But- he already lost everything, his family already thinks of valid reason to disown him, his „friends” left him for good. The only thing what is dangerous is… the rest of the world. What to do? Let Maximilian decide.

„And now! The song for special someone! It’s kinda rough around the edges but this person is not the most patient one.” Max screamed to the mic as loud as he could. PJ stressed, Bobby in shook, Bradley just waiting for what’s to come.

„Whenever I see you You take my breath away, Than you tell me ‚Get lost’ but your smile says ‚please come’ I know, I can’t play as hard as your idols, I’m no biker unlike the ones your eyes follow, But than you are swirling around me like boa, And your touch, and your sight, and your. And your. AND YOUR

Throw me away OR KISS ME Please decide YOU LOVE OR HATE ME Please, baby. I’ll take everything. Right here. Right now Just please decide”

As song went on, and chorus came again, Bradley thought to himself „Oh Max, you have no idea how bad this may end”. That broke him, but he let his heart lead.

After the concert Max went with Bradley to his dorm, he made PJ convince Bobby to go somewhere else.

„So… you liked it?” Labradoodle asked

„Huh? Oh yeah yeah. Just- wasn’t expecting that honest lyrics”

„Ya”

„Max”

„What?”

„I don’t want to throw you away, but I’m scared something bad may happen”

„Me too Bardly. I know but. Maybe if we try something or-„

The words left Max when chodsky pes hugged him tightly and started catching his tears

„Promise me you’ll be careful and safe and sound and… just take care”

„I promise”

The eyes met just like that time they danced with eachother in october warmth. Heads started leaning to one another without much control, slowly but surely, than finally meeting in long, silent, sincere kiss. December cold kept them tightly.

After a while Max jumped to the CD adapter and „River flows in you” started playing.

„Can we. Just be for eachother this time?”

Young couple started slowly dancing, tightly, to the rhythm and crying, but foreheads locked just like palms and sternums, and breaths.

My last prompt on late @sasori-mini-bang​

Day 3

“Mythology AU”

Before we begin I want to add that it was very plesant experience to be a part of this event; thank you from the bottom of my heart for letting me take part in this. I truly appreciate that and I love all of the works other people did.

Going back to my work - it’s the longest one and in the same time the least unique text I wrote. I just hope I hadn’t written any of the characters too ooc. Hope you’ll have fun anyway (pic and pronounciation of one word at the end of the text).

The Fic

Bam!Capítulo sorpresa,por eso la tardanza en las publicaciones de los capítulos,así que disfruten un capítulo lleno de sorpresas.

Cap 6:Nuevo comienzo. -Spanish and English-

Las cosas ciertamente iban bien,eran amigos y Once-ler obtenía beneficios por ello.Seguía siendo el niño caprichoso después de todo.

Warden hacía lo que Once-ler pidiese,aunque tampoco es como que Once-ler abuse tanto,solo comodidad,cigarrillos y malvaviscos,evidentemente.Pero quería algo más,quería escapar pero esto no sería fácil.Reconocía que la prisión de Warden era una peligrosamente bien vigilada,vamos!no quería caer en manos de Alice y tener una columna rota.

Once-ler:Genial,cómo escaparé?-Llenándose la boca con malvaviscos y caminando por donde sea,seguía buscando un escape-

Había intentado unirse a los demás reclusos para planear un escape pero sucedían algunas cosas:

1.-Era aliado de Warden,no lo iban a involucrar.

2.-Los planes eran demasiado estúpidos como para funcionar.

3.-Simplemente NO.

Once-ler:-Susurrando-Al parecer escapar es más difícil de lo que pensé…

Warden:Dijiste algo amigo?-sonando naturalmente feliz de decirle amigo-

Once-ler cayó hacía atrás,asustado por la aparición tan repentina.

Once-ler:Aaaa!qué?…cuándo llegaste?-frunciendo el ceño-

Warden:Oh,perdón fui tan grosero…apenas hace unos segundos-sonriente-

Once-ler:Te diría algo por asustarme pero!como notarás -Levantándose,señalando al suelo y con el ceño aún más fruncido-Mis malvaviscos están en el suelo…

Warden:Upss…lo siento,déjame arreglarlo-apareciendo una bolsa en la cabeza del otro-

Once-ler:Uh?…gracias-tomándola y comiendo de nuevo-

Warden:No quise asustarte amigo,es solo que no pude evitar venir contigo por que al parecer no tengo nada que hacer-sonriendo con los dientes-

Una escena de Jared trabajando el triple.

Once-ler:Como sea…qué necesitas?-mirándolo y disfrutando de los malvaviscos- Ok,creo que le daré un punto a tu prisión…tiene malvaviscos ciertamente deliciosos.

Warden:Oh gracias,eres catador de comida también,al parecer.

Once-ler:Pff,resulta que disfruto de el mejor postre de la vida-metiéndose más a la boca-

Warden:Supongo que sí…-encogiéndose de hombros-

Once-ler:No lo supongas-tomando un poco y metiendo en la boca unos malvaviscos al alcaide-come…

Warden no se asustó por la actitud del joven,simplemente aceptó el gesto juguetón.Once-ler solo quería que alguien estuviera de acuerdo con sus gustos en dulces y que tal vez el guardián le compre algunos más.

Warden:-Tragando el dulce-Mmm…sí,están bien.Tal vez con un helado o algo así.

Once-ler:Por supuesto que está bien,si el Once-ler lo aprueba es porque está bien…sí,eso es correcto-sonando presumiendo y comiendo-

Warden:Bien,una vez terminada nuestra plática exhaustiva de malvaviscos,creo que llego la hora de hablar de cosas serias-tomándolo por los hombros y acercándose-

Once-ler:Mmm…qué?-mirándolo un poco serio-

Warden:Bueno,señor once-ler…creo que he oído de tus intentos de escape,mal Once-ler -sonando como un regaño de chiste-aunque…eso podría ser falso,no?

Once-ler:Pff,no…

Warden:Uh?vaya…lo admites así,cómo así?-sonado confundido y un poco sorprendido-

Once-ler se encogió de hombros,mirándolo con esa seriedad de siempre y siguiendo con su camino.Warden sorprendido,el otro no mintió,se lo dijo descaradamente y lo peor…no le molesta.

Warden:T-tú!amm…wow,eres un poco insolente pero sincero-pensándolo y manos en la cadera-

Once-ler:No tengo que mentir con lo que no me agrada,no quiero estar aquí…quiero volver a mi fábrica y hacer dinero,creo que ya los has escuchado y no veo la hora en la que me cumplas el deseo-sonando despreocupado y no importando lo que el otro sienta-

Warden:Pff,qué?para tu información jovencito,esto es más divertido-ceño un poco fruncido-y segundo, no puedo cumplir todos tus caprichos,necesito dinero y tiempo para los míos…

Once-ler:-Rodando los ojos-Cierto,que eres un niño grande,tal vez necesites dinero para tus bloques o avioncitos…

Warden:¿Qué?pff…es obvió que necesito algunas crayolas y…no estamos hablando de eso.Estamos hablando de tus intentos de escape,mal!-ceño fruncido y cruzado de brazos-

Once-ler:Pff,somos amigos…y como buen amigo debo serte sincero,no me gusta estar aquí…cumplirías un buen papel como amigo sacándome de aquí-sonriendo sarcásticamente-

El otro estaba analizando la situación.Nunca tuvo un mejor amigo y le ilusiona tener uno y no quiere decepcionarlo,pero tampoco es un idiota como para no darse cuenta de las intenciones de Once-ler.

Warden:Nah,mal Once-ler…eso jamás pasará,tendrías que hacer algo para que consideré eso pero JAJAJA,eso es un buen chiste-riendo divertido aún y caminando a lado del otro.

Once-ler frunció el ceño,comiendo aún más sus malvaviscos para lidiar con esto.Quería escapar pero es cierto,tendría que hacer algo para Warden para que consideré el dejarlo ir.

Once-ler:Algo,mmm…-pensando y siguiendo con su camino-

Warden:Oye,se me ocurrió algo para olvidarnos de está plática y divertirnos,¿qué dices?-sonriendo y inquieto-

Once-ler:Bueno…supongo que será divertido

Warden:¡Perfecto!tendrémos una cit…una reunión!porque tú y yo somos amigos-sonriendo nerviosamente-

Once-ler:Claro…-aclarándose la garganta-y qué vamos hacer?

Warden:Pues,se supone que tengo que ayudar a los reclusos de alguna forma…Jared me dijo que tenía que hacer algo,como sus actividades aburridas-viendo la lista con disgusto-Ugg,pero para suerte de Superjail,tiene a un divertido,carismatico y atractivo alcaide!con muchas actividades divertidas-sonriente-

Once-ler:Supongo que será un día divertido e interesante-

El otro lo jalo con él,teletransportando a ambos donde irían.Era una especie de escenario donde habitualmente hacía cualquier cosa o evento extraño.

Warden:¡Genial!estamos aquí-sonriente y brillante-

Once-ler:Dios!eso fue extraño,no hagas eso sin avisarme-aferrándose de un lugar por el mareo-

Warden:Oh,lo siento Oncie…pero estoy tan emocionado de que estés conmigo en uno de estos planes,esto será un éxito contigo a mi lado-pestañeo y entrelazando sus propias manos-

Once-ler dió una sonrisa ante las actitudes del otro,aclarándose la garganta después para fingir que eso no sucedió.

Once-ler:Bueno,qué se supone que haremos?-viéndolo-

Warden:Pues es obvió lo que tú harás-manos en la cadera y viéndolo-

Once-ler:Amm,qué?

Warden:Tú eres parte de el programa de rehabilitación-sonriente y chispeante-

Once-ler:QUÉ?-nervioso,sabía cómo era el tipo con sus planes-no,no,no!yo soy tu compañero,no es así?

Warden:Claro,pero sigues siendo un recluso -tomándolo de los hombros y dándole palmaditas-no te preocupes,te vas a divertir…

Once-ler pasando saliva por el miedo.Sabía cómo era Warden,era un poco salvaje y extremo con sus juegos y proyectos,podría morir en esto de la manera más dolorosa si no se cuidaba o conseguía que Warden se retracte de esa idea.

Once-ler:Oye,amigo…no crees que soy,pff-odiando decir esto-demasiado débil para estos juegos,odiaría cancelar nuestras reuniones por estar muerto,eso sería una pena…no lo crees?

Warden:Mmm,tienes razón…pero eso quiere decir que puedes estar a mi lado ,planeando todo esto-sonriendo con los dientes y dando brinquitos-

Once-ler asintiendo,totalmente de acuerdo y a favor de no acabar muerto.Pensaba que esto no sería peligroso y estaría seguro pero…

Once-ler:Mi Dios!qu-qué es esto?-viendo todo con terror y nervioso-

Warden:¿Qué?me gusta estar lo más cerca posible de los juegos y convivir-emocionado y dando brinquitos de felicidad-

Once-ler:Oh…bueno,pero no crees que es muy peligroso?eso es fuego?-pupilas contraídas y aferrándose al brazo del alcaide-

Warden:Pero será divertido,incluso tal vez te vuelvas más unido a los reclusos,¿no crees?

Once-ler mirando cómo los reclusos lo veían con mala cara,con ganas de matarlo y esperar a que caiga en sus garras.Tenía miedo de morir en eso.Acaso Warden no tenía en cuenta de que él no es parte de Superjail?no es indestructible,no es de goma,simplemente no es Superjail.

Once-ler:Warden no!no quiero…esto…no soy lo suficientemente fuerte como para resistir esto,tampoco un idiota como para hacerlo-aferrandose aún más al brazo del otro y viéndolo con terror-

Warden:Pero no te va a pasar nada,te lo juró-no entendiéndolo y sonriente-

Once-ler:No,no lo entiendes Warden…no soy de goma como tú,si muero es LITERAL-ceño fruncido- aparte…Eso es una cuchilla?definitivamente yo me quedaré aquí a tu lado si es necesario,siempre y cuando no me involucres en eso.

Warden no entendía el porqué Once-ler no quería participar en lo que él considera divertido y asombroso.De todos modos Warden no comprende mucho de ser un “humano normal”,no comprende que estos son más sensibles a muchas cosas riesgosas de las que él disfruta,en general no lo comprende,no comprende el Ser un “humano promedio”.

Warden:Solo relajate…eres un amargado-rodando los ojos y luciendo molesto-pff,débil…

Once-ler:Tú eres un…-dándole una bofetada,luciendo molesto-BASTA!

Once-ler estaba harto,odiaba estar aquí,odiaba todo y quería irse.

Once-ler:Basta!no voy a soportar algo así,no voy a soportar idiotas como tú,¿por qué sabes qué?sigo siendo mejor que tú y mucho más fuerte que tú.Estoy harto de que me subestimes,no soy un idiota fracasado como tú,me das pena…tanto que accedí a ser tu amigo por pena y beneficio,en serio crees que sería tu amigo porque quiero?¡jamás me involucraría seriamente con alguien como tú!-luciendo intimidante y enojado,muy enojado-

Warden solo oyó esto con incredulidad,estaba herido,nadie le había dicho cosas tan hirientes como esas y mucho menos ridiculizado así de horrible,puede que algunas veces pero lo ignoraba pero está vez le dolió y mucho.

Jared y los demás no sabían qué decir estaban sorprendidos,nadie había hecho sentir tan mal al alcaide,era incómodo siquiera hacer algún movimiento.

Once-ler se hizo un poco para atrás,estaba apenado.Dios!Esto era penoso,nunca se sintió tan mal y arrepentido de hacer algo así,se puso a pensar en eso.Warden simplemente se tapó el rostro,teletransportandose a algún lugar.

Once-ler:Mierda qué hice?-mirando a los lados,viendo con pena como todos lo miraban con una especie de asombro-

Esté huyó del lugar,iría a buscar a Warden,ser valiente y afrontar su pena por haber hecho eso.

Once-ler:Warden?dónde estás?-buscándolo con la mirada,por los pasillos-

No sabía dónde estaba,tenía tanta culpa por hacer eso,por haberle gritado cosas tan horribles como esas.Analizó el hecho de que no solo a Warden lo trató así,si no al Lórax y a los demás de su entorno,se había estado comportando tan idiota y engreído con los demás pero…está ves,está vez no se sintió bien hacerlo,es como si le hubiera gritado a alguien muy importante y sensible para él,se sentía horrible por haberlo hecho.

Siguió buscándolo un rato,incluso en el camino perdió su sombrero,no importando,solo quería arreglar esto.Busco hasta que lo encontró,estaba en el Superbar,totalmente triste y derretido en la barra.Entró al bar,teniendo miedo por acercarse pero lo hizo,tenía que afrontar esto.

Once-ler:Ajam-aclarándose la garganta y no mirándolo aún-Warden…

El otro se alejó un poco,tenía miedo y pena de verlo,era incómodo.

Once-ler:Entiendo que te alejes,perdón…lo que grite no fue para nada razonable,fuí un idiota…lo siento,aunque sé que un perdón no arregla nada…

Warden solo oyó eso con sorpresa.Realmente lo que le dijo Once-ler le dolió,se sintió mal porque una persona que realmente quería le gritará todas esas cosas horrible,en otra situación solo ignoraba situación,como siempre lo había hecho pero realmente le agarro mucho cariño a Once-ler.

Warden:Bueno yo…realmente no pasa nada-sonriendo falsamente-

Once-ler:No!necesito que me odies,odiame…lo que hice no fue bueno…ahora que lo pienso no quiero que me perdones,quiero que me digas que me odias,por qué no lo haces?-confundido-

Warden:Realmente no te puedo odiar,eres mi amigo-sonriendo nerviosamente-

El otro se sintió aún peor,el guardián solo quería un amigo con quien estar,se sintió mal por gritarle a alguien ilusionado por tener un amigo.

Warden siempre a sido un tipo solitario,tenía a Jared,Alice a los reclusos y a Jailbot pero nunca se sintió realmente muy identificado con alguien,hasta que llego Once-ler.Once-ler lo entiende muy bien y le parece un tipo agradable,quiere ser su amigo y que por fin alguien lo quiera.

Once-ler:No,no soy tu amigo…te grite cosas horribles,cualquier otra persona me hubiera gritado o golpeado por eso,creo que soy un idiota que cree tener e privilegio de gritarle a quien sea y NO!,realmente no…no es agradable hacerlo,perdón-recargándose en la barra-

Warden:No soy como los demás…soy alguien particularmente distinto en todo sentido,no me gusta recurrir a golpear a mis amigos y menos si es alguien a quien estimo-sonriendo-y aparte soy un tanto extraño,no sé si ya lo notaste…a lo que me refiero es que quiero seguir intentando ser tu amigo,realmente me interesas…

Eso último hizo sonrojar a Once-ler.Wow,alguien realmente lo quiere y desea tener su cariño de alguna forma.Esté analizando todo lo que hizo mal y lo que tenía que cambiar,tomando aire y hablando.

Once-ler:Te prometo tratar de mejorar…lo que hago no es algo muy positivo,solo alejó a los demás con esas actitudes y destruyó cosas…-risita tímida-

Warden:Gracias,aunque creo que tampoco fue muy lindo de mi parte obligarte a hacer eso,supongo que los humanos “normales” son diferentes…aunque no comprendo realmente que es ser un humano-confundido y tratando de buscar una respuesta-

Once-ler:-Sonriendo un poco-Bueno,supongo que te puedo ayudar con eso…tal vez mejoremos nuestra comunicación,¿no crees?

Warden:¡Por supuesto!estoy abierto a nuevas ideas y actividades,siempre y cuando sean divertidas-sonriendo de nuevo y mostrando ese hueco en sus dientes-

Once-ler:-Sonriendo-No te prometo que será fácil y divertido todo el tiempo pero … .trataré de que lo sea,ok?

Warden:Por supuesto,esto será una aventura realmente interesante-otra vez arco-iris y sonriente-

Once-ler le dio palmaditas en la espalda,sonriendo y tratando de animar el ambiente nuevamente.Notó que todavía estaba un poco roja la zona en la que lo abofeteó,sintiéndose mal por lastimarlo nuevamente.

Once-ler:Ammm…oye,te duele?-tocando delicadamente esa parte-

Warden:Mmm…-pensándolo-Oh,sí…eso duele

Sonrojandose por el toque del otro y su preocupación.Haría lo que fuera por tener un poco de atención,después de todo se ha acostumbrado a tener eso y no se quejaría si es de Once-ler.

Once-ler:Lo siento,fuí muy duró con el golpe-mirando la parte afectada y ceño fruncido de la preocupación-

Warden:No importa,algunas peleas,unas muertes y demás,han acostumbrado a este cuerpo a soportar lo que sea…aunque no es agradable quedar cubierto de sangre propia,debo decirlo-sonando como si se tratara de un cuento alegre-

Once-ler:Eso es extraño pero supongo que un ser omnipotente como tú,tiene que estar involucrado en todo tipo de cosas…

Warden:Uff,sí…he hecho cosas extrañas y que cualquiera diría que es parte del efecto de una sustancia pero igual es emocionante-sonriendo despreocupado-Oye amigo y tu sombrero?

Once-ler:Oh,eso?no lo sé…lo perdí cuando te vine a buscar,no importa…

Warden:Mmm…creo que-haciendo como si buscara algo en su mente-aja!

Esté apareció el sombrero,dándoselo al joven.El otro tomándolo y sorprendido.

Once-ler:Wow,gracias-viéndolo-pero creo que ya no es necesario…a veces es pesado de cargar en la cabeza y creo que ya no lo necesito-sonriendo débilmente-igual lo dejaré guardado,gracias…

Warden sonrió con felicidad.Era un poco extraño ver a Once-ler sin su sombrero y solo el traje era como si se estuviera quitando algo grande,dejando ver más de cómo era él realmente.Era cosa de acostumbrarse a eso.

De la nada una alarma sonó,alertando al guardián y de su ensoñación.

Warden:Mmm…QUÉ?agg,en serio?…tengo que reparar lo que sea que haga sonar esa cosa molesta…

Once-ler:Genial,iré contigo…supongo que necesitas ayuda-levantándose y sonriendo-

Warden:Y sí,es molesto cuando Jared se pone a decir cosas molestas y empieza a entrar en pánico-explicando con las manos-

Once-ler:Jeje,supongo-caminando a su lado y llevandose entre las manos el sombrero-

Esto era un nuevo comienzo,uno real y no lleno de conflictos por ahora,realmente querían mejorar su relación.

continuara…

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bam! Surprise chapter, that's why the delay in the publications of the chapters, so enjoy a chapter full of surprises.

Chapter 6:New beginning.

Things were certainly going well, they were friends and Once-ler benefited from it. After all, he was still the capricious child.

Warden did everything the Once-ler asked of him, although it's not like the Once-ler is that abusive, just comfort, cigarettes and marshmallows, obviously. But I wanted something more, I wanted to escape but this wouldn't be easy. He recognized that Warden's prison was dangerously well guarded, come on! He didn't want to fall into Alice's hands and have his spine broken.

Once-ler: Great, how will I escape? - Filling his mouth with marshmallows and walking wherever he went, he kept looking for an escape -

He had tried to join the other inmates to plan an escape, but a few things happened: 1.-He was Warden's ally, they were not going to involve him. 2.-The plans were too stupid to work. 3.-Simply NO.

Once-ler: -Whispering-Apparently escaping is harder than I thought… Warden: Did you say something, friend? -sounding naturally happy to say friend-

Once-ler backed away, frightened by the sudden appearance.

Once-ler: Aaaa! what?… when did you arrive? - frowning - Warden: Oh, sorry I was so rude…just a few seconds ago-smiling- Once-ler: I'd say I'm not afraid, but! As you will notice -Getting up, pointing to the floor and frowning even more-My marshmallows are on the floor… Warden: Oops… sorry, let me fix it-a bag appears on the other's head- Once-ler: Eh?…thanks- he takes it and eats again- Warden: I didn't mean to scare you friend, it's just that I couldn't help but go with you because apparently I have nothing to do -smiling with teeth-

A scene of Jared working at triple time.

Once-ler: Anyway…what do you need?-looking at it and enjoying the marshmallows-Ok, I think I'll give your prison a point…it definitely has delicious marshmallows. Warden: Oh, thank you. Apparently you're also a food taster. Once-ler: Pff, it turns out that I enjoy the best dessert in life – he puts more marshmallows in his mouth – Warden: I guess so… -shrugs- Once-ler: Don't assume it -he takes some and puts marshmallows in the warden's mouth so he can eat them- eat…

Warden was not scared by the young man's attitude, he simply accepted the playful gesture. Once-ler just wanted someone to agree with his taste in sweets and maybe the warden would buy him some more.

Warden:-Swallowing the marshmallows-Mmm…yes, they're fine. Maybe with an ice cream or something like that. Once-ler:Of course it's fine, if the Once-ler approves it's because it's fine…yes, that's right -sounding bragging and eating- Warden: Well, once our exhaustive talk about marshmallows is over, I think it's time to talk about serious things - he taking him by the shoulders and approaching him - Once-ler: Mmm…what? -looking a little serious- Warden:Well, Mr. Once-ler…I think I heard about your escape attempts, bad Once-ler-sounding like a scolding joke-although…that could be false, right? Once-ler: Pff, no… Warden: Uh? Wow… you admit it like that, how like that? -sounding confused and a little surprised-

Once-ler shrugged his shoulders, looking at him with his usual seriousness and continuing on his way. Warden was surprised, the other didn't lie, he told him blatantly and the worst thing… it doesn't bother him.

Warden: Y-you! amm…wow, you are a little insolent but sincere-thinking about it and hands on the hip- Once-ler: I don't have to lie about what I don't like, I don't want to be here… I want to go back to my factory and make money, I think you've heard them already. . and I can't wait for you to fulfill my wish -sounding carefree and not caring what the other person feels- Warden: Pff, what? For your information young man, this is more fun – he frowns a little – and second, I can't fulfill all your whims, I need money and time for mine… Once-ler:-rolling his eyes-Right, you're a big kid, maybe you need money for your blocks or airplanes… Warden: What? Pff… it's obvious that I need some crayons and… we're not talking about that. We're talking about your escape attempts, bad ones! - He frowned and crossed his arms - Once-ler: Pff, we are friends… and as a good friend I must be honest with you, I don't like it here… you would do a good job as a friend getting me out of here- smiling sarcastically-

The other was analyzing the situation. He's never had a best friend and he's excited to have one and doesn't want to disappoint him, but he's also not an idiot to not find out or pretend not to notice the Once-ler's intentions.

Warden: Nah, bad Once-ler…that will never happen, you'd have to do something to make me consider that but HAHAHA, that's a good joke-laughing funny still and walking side by side.

Once-ler frowned, eating even more of his marshmallows to deal with this. He wanted to escape but it's true, he would have to do something for Warden to make me consider letting go.

Once-ler: Something, mmm… -thinking and continuing on his way- Warden: Hey, I thought of something to forget about this talk and have fun, what do you say? -smiling and restless- Once-ler: Well…I guess it will be fun Warden: Perfect! We'll have a date…a meeting! Because you and I are friends-smiling nervously- Once-ler: Sure…-clearing his throat-and what are we going to do? Warden: Well, I'm supposed to help the inmates in some way…Jared told me he had to do something, like his boring activities-looking at the list with disgust-Ugg, luckilyfor Superjail, he has a fun, charismatic and attractive warden! with many fun activities-smiling- Once-ler:I guess it will be a fun and interesting day-

The other pulled him with him, teleporting them both to where they would go. It was a kind of stage where he usually did any strange thing or event.

Warden: Great! we're here -smiling and bright- Once-ler: God! that was strange, don't do that without telling me - holding on to a place because of dizziness - Warden: Oh, I'm sorry Oncie… but I'm so excited that you're with me on one of these plans, this will be a success with you by my side - he blinked and clasped his own hands -

Once-ler gave a smile at the other's attitudes, clearing his throat afterwards to pretend that that didn't happen.

Once-ler: Well, what are we supposed to do? -looking at him- Warden: Well, it's obvious what you're going to do-hands on your hips and looking at it- Once-ler: Amm, what? Warden: You are part of the rehabilitation program - smiling and sparkling - Once-ler: WHAT? - nervous, I knew what the guy was like with his plans - no, no, no! I'm your partner, right? Warden: Sure, but you're still a recluse - taking him by the shoulders and patting him - don't worry, you're going to have fun…

The young man salivating in fear. He knew what the Warden was like, he was a little wild and extreme with his games and projects, he could die in this in the most painful way if he didn't take care of himself or get the Warden to back down from the idea.

Once-ler: Hey, buddy…don't you think I'm, pff -he was hate to say this- too weak for these games? I would hate to cancel our meetings because I'm dead, that would be a shame… don't you think? Warden: Mmm, you're right…but that means you can be by my side, planning all this-smiling with teeth and jumping-

Once-ler nods, totally agreeing and in favor of not ending up dead. I thought this would not be dangerous and would be safe but…

Once-ler: Oh my god! What-what is this? -Seeing everything with terror and nervousness- Warden: What? I like to be as close as possible to the games and coexist - excited and jumping with happiness - Once-ler: Oh… well, but don't you think it's very dangerous? Is that fire? - contracted and clinging to the warden's arm - Warden: But it will be fun, maybe you'll even get closer to the inmates, don't you think?

Once-ler watching as the inmates looked at him with a dirty face, wanting to kill him and wait for him to fall into their clutches. I was afraid of dying in that. Did Warden not take into account that he is not part of Superjail? Isn't it? it´s not Indestructible, it's not rubber, it's just not Superjail.

Once-ler: Warden no! I don't want…this…I'm not strong enough to resist this, nor an idiot to do it-clinging even more to the other's arm and looking at him with terror- Warden: But nothing is going to happen to you, he swore to you - not understanding it and smiling - Once-ler: No, you don't understand Warden… I'm not made of rubber like you, if I die it's LITERAL - frown - aside… Is that a blade? I will definitely stay here by your side if necessary, as long as you don't get involved in that.

Warden didn't understand why the Once-ler didn't want to participate in what he considers fun and awesome. Anyway, Warden doesn't understand much about being a “normal human”, he doesn't understand that they are more sensitive to many risky things than he He enjoys it, in general he does not understand it, he does not understand Being an “average human”.

Warden: Just relax…you're bitter -rolling his eyes and looking annoyed-pff, weak… Once-ler: You're a… -slapping him, looking annoyed-STOP IT!

Once-ler was fed up, he hated being here, he hated everything and he wanted to leave.

Once-ler: Enough! I'm not going to put up with something like that, I'm not going to put up with idiots like you, why do you know what? I'm still better than you and much stronger than you. I'm sick of you underestimating me, I'm not an idiot failure like you, I feel pity for you…so much so that I agreed to be your friend out of pity and benefit, do you really think I would be your friend because I want to? I would never get seriously involved with someone like you! -looking intimidating and angry, very angry-

Warden just listened to this in disbelief, he was hurt, no one had ever said hurtful things like that to him, much less ridiculed him like that, maybe sometimes but he didn't know it but this time it hurt him a lot.

Jared and the others didn't know what to say, they were shocked, no one had ever made the warden feel so bad, it was awkward to even make a move.

Once-ler stepped back a little, he was embarrassed. God! This was painful, he had never felt so bad and regretted having done something like that, he started to think about it. Warden simply covered his face and teleported somewhere.

Once-ler: Shit, what did I do? -looking around, seeing with pity how everyone looked at him with a kind of amazement-

He fled the scene, he would go find Warden, he would be brave and face his pain for having done that.

Once-ler: Warden? Where are you? -Looking for him in the halls-

He didn't know where he was, he felt so guilty for having done that, for having yelled horrible things like that at him. He analyzed the fact that he had not only treated the Guardian like that, but also the Lorax and the others around him, he had been behaving so idiotically and conceitedly with others but… you see, this time he didn't feel right. Doing so, it's like he had yelled at someone very important and sensitive to him, he felt horrible for having done it. He continued looking for him for a while, even on the way he lost his hat, it didn't matter, he just wanted to fix this. He searched until he found him, he was in the Superbar, totally sad and melted on the bar. He entered the bar, afraid to approach, but he did, he had to face this

Once-ler: Aha-clearing his throat and not looking at him yet-Warden…

The other moved away a little, he was scared and ashamed to see him, it was uncomfortable.

Once-ler: I understand that you move away, sorry… what I shouted was not reasonable at all, I was an idiot… I'm sorry, although I know that a pardon doesn't fix anything… Warden only heard that with surprise. What Once-ler told him really hurt him, he felt bad because a person he really like would shout all those horrible things at him, in another situation he would just ignore the situation, as he had always done but he really grew very fond of Once-ler.

Warden: Well I… it's really nothing- smiling falsely- Once-ler: No! I need you to hate me, hate me… what I did was not good… now that I think about it I don't want you to forgive me, I want you to tell me that you hate me, why don't you do it? - confused- Warden: I can't really hate you, you're my friend- smiling nervously-

The other felt even worse, the guardián only wanted a friend to be with, he felt bad for yelling at someone excited to have a friend. Warden has always been a lonely man, he had Jared, Alice, the inmates and Jailbot but he never really felt very identified with anyone, until Once-ler arrived. Once-ler understands him very well and seems like a nice guy, he wants to be his friend and for someone to finally love him.

Once-ler: No, I'm not your friend… I yelled horrible things at you, anyone else would have yelled at me or hit me for that, I think I'm an idiot who thinks I have the privilege of yelling at anyone and NO!, really no… it's not nice to do it, sorry- leaning on the bar- Warden: I'm not like the others… I'm someone particularly different in every way, I don't like to resort to hitting my friends and even less if it's someone I esteem- smiling- and besides I'm a bit strange, I don't know if you've noticed… what I mean is that I want to keep trying to be your friend, I'm really interested in you…

That last thing made Once-ler blush. Wow, someone really likes him and wants to have his affection in some way. He's analyzing everything he did wrong and what he had to change, taking a breath and talking.

Once-ler: I promise to try to improve… what I do is not something very positive, I only push others away with those attitudes and destroy things… -shy laugh- Warden: Thanks, although I think it was not very nice of me to force you to do that, I guess “normal” humans are different… although I do not really understand what it is to be a human- confused and trying to find an answer- Once-ler: -Smiling a little- Well, I guess I can help you with that… maybe we can improve our communication, don't you think? Warden: Of course! I am open to new ideas and activities, as long as they are fun- smiling again and showing that gap in his teeth- Once-ler: -Smiling- I do not promise that it will be easy and fun all the time but… I will try to make it so, okay?

Warden: Of course, this will be a really interesting adventure - again rainbow and smiling-

Once-ler patted him on the back, smiling and trying to liven up the atmosphere again. He noticed that the area where he slapped him was still a little red, feeling bad for hurting him again.

Once-ler: Ummm… hey, does it hurt? - delicately touching that part- Warden: Mmm… - thinking about it- Oh, yes… that hurts

Blushing at the other's touch and his concern. He would do anything to have a little attention, after all he has become accustomed to having that and he would not complain if it is from Once-ler.

Once-ler: Sorry, I was too hard on you- looking at the affected part and frowning in concern- Warden: Nevermind, some fights, some deaths and so on, have accustomed this body to bear anything… although it is not pleasant to be covered in your own blood, I must say- sounding as if it were a happy tale- Once-ler: That is strange but I suppose that an omnipotent being like you, has to be involved in all kinds of things… Warden: Uff, yes… I have done strange things and anyone would say that it is part of the effect of a substance but it is still exciting- smiling carefree- Hey friend, what about your hat? Once-ler: Oh, that? I don't know… I lost it when I came to look for you, nevermind… Warden: Mmm… I think so- acting as if he were looking for something in his mind- aha!

The hat appeared, giving it to the young man. The other took it and was surprised.

Once-ler: Wow, thanks - looking at it - but I think it's not necessary anymore… sometimes it's heavy to carry on your head and I think I don't need it anymore - smiling weakly - I'll put it away anyway, thanks…

Warden smiled happily. It was a little strange to see Once-ler without his hat and just the suit, it was like he was taking off something big, letting you see more of what he really was like. It was a matter of getting used to it.

Out of nowhere an alarm sounded, alerting the guardian and his daydream.

Warden:Mmm…WHAT? Agg, really?…I have to fix whatever is making that annoying thing sound… Once-ler:Great, I'll go with you…I guess you need help-standing up and smiling- Warden:And yes, it is annoying when Jared starts saying annoying things and starts to panic-explaining with his hands- Once-ler:Hehe, I guess-walking beside him and carrying his hat in his hands- This was a new beginning, a real one and not full of conflicts for now, they really wanted to improve their relationship.

To be continued…

GM Moodboard 10: Chapter 12: Faithful to a Fault, But Whose?

“Sifair smiled again, Stepping closer to the Blue Paladin. Wrapping her arms around him in the best hug Lance had ever received since joining this quiznacking space war. She was warm and soft all around him. Like a huge mother bear. You know that she was terrifyingly deadly, but, at the same time, she's one of the best things in the world to have at your side.

Lance wanted to cry.

"Even if no one admits that they value you, I always will. Come to me anytime, and I'll talk your ears off about how much I appreciate all that you've done Dearest. You helped saved the universe love! And...more importantly, you gave me back my son."

Lance straight up cried.”

GM Moodboard 9 - Chapter 11: Even Before We Got To Touch

“ The image broke her in some vital way. Shattered what little remained of her resolve. Werual kicked her in the stomach with his good leg. Yanking her back to her feet with his remaining arm without so much as an ounce of resistance. Sifair's candlelight eyes burning against the bloodied dirt floor underneath her.

Her son.

Her laughing baby boy she had to leave. What would her kit think? If he saw just how vicious a creature his mother was? He would have the same look in his eyes, wouldn't he? He'd be that terrified of her, right? Sifair tried to look back at the child she had freighted. To apologize. To beg forgiveness.

To comfort.”

“Sifair…Her full title was Sentinel Elite Sifairias Kerain Shaanti…” Talking a deep breath, Kolivan put his Blades at ease with a wave of his hand. Taking a seat a ways away from Matt.

Head in his hands.

“She was our previous leader. I thought…I thought she was dead.”

“Lotor couldn’t breathe.

It was impossible. No woman could have…his thoughts trailed off. Remembering the young girl’s face. The startling beauty of her tears. The soft, vulnerable look she gave him.

If only for a moment.

She truly was beautiful. Beautiful in a way none of his other women were. Beautiful in a way they all aspired to be. Lush lips and a girlish, soft face. Lashes long and feathery against a dotted cheek. He had held her.

Felt her.”

“She was beautiful.

Allura watched as Pidge smiled. The young girl's smile blooming on her face in such a way that she radiated joy and made the whole room bright and warm. A lovely smile Allura had never seen anyone make, let alone sarcastic, bitting Pidge. Immediately, Allura felt a strong surge of pride. She was the one that brought out this inner beauty. Wait a tick! The Altean Princess suddenly had a very, very amazing idea.

"We're not done yet!"

GM Moodboard 5 - Chapter 5: Lick Your Wounds

“To Pidge, Allura had no reason to envy her. Pidge wasn't a princess nor the spearhead for the Defenders of the Universe. Pidge wasn't all charm and regality nor was she as lovely as Allura. She was just a small, stubborn cog in the system.

Nothing special.

But Allura? She was special, amazing at every given opportunity. She was a freaking alien princess for God's sake. Not only that, she had some sort of weird Altean magic mumbo jumbo abilities. She single handedly organizes all their diplomatic dealings. Needless to say, Allura was fucking amazing. Pidge wasn't.”

GM Moodboard 4 - Chapter 4: A Mother’s Legacy

“The Galran female winced as her mind accidentally brought Laila back into her thoughts. Shiro began shaking with silent sobs, like a child crying after getting scared by a monster. Sifair just held him. Letting him release all his tears onto her shoulder.

Laila was better at this.

When Sifair had crashed to the ground on her hover bikes, Laila was there to heal the wounds and hold her through the tears. When Sifair had killed legions of creatures who threaten the old Empire, Leila was there to help her keep her resolve. But not anymore. Laila's been dead for thousands of years. Killed by Altean hate and prejudice. Burned like the Witch they called her. Now, as Sifiar held the weeping Black Paladin of Voltron, they lived in a world without Laila. A world without the sane creature she made Zarkon. A world without her warmth.

A world without her golden eyes.”

“Truthfully, Lance was here to understand Keith. But not as a leader. Truthfully, Lance couldn't care less that Keith was leading them now. Because who would want Lance as a leader anyway? Perks of being a seventh wheel, he thought bitterly.

No.

Lance was here for love.

Deny it as he might. Lance couldn't refuse the gravitational pull that slingshots him to Keith every time they so much as see each other. Not anymore, anyway. Lance could even pin-point the exact moment he realized his budding feelings.”

“Matt's heart twisted.

He missed his family. He missed his dad's corny jokes. His mother's constant humming. His sister's...well, he missed everything about Katie. He missed their fights over cereal. Their walks home from the Garrison. Their way of understanding each other in a way no one ever could.

Matt squeezed his eyes shut.

She was only 14 when he left on that damned mission. She must be at least 16 or, God forbid, 18. He missed her whole life. Her whole life that was supposed to be filled with her breaking every boundary and obstacle that stood in her way because she was Katherine Goddamn Annalise Holt and the world was her's for the taking.

Or, that's how it should've been.”

GM Moodboard 1 - Chapter 1: Songs in the Field

“His heart pumped faster.

Blood started spurting out faster out of his chest as a disastrous consequence. But the man didn’t care. He never had cared for consequences.

Not when it came to her.

Her voice, so painfully familiar and free of pain, suddenly made him want for Death. So then, at the very least, he could be with her once more. His weary eyes, scoured the endless field of flowers like a man starved.

And starved he was.

Just once, he wanted to see her just once more. And…he did. His eyes clung to her in the distance as they once did so long ago. The man let out a breath he held in for thousands of years.

There she was.”
