LIFT YOUR HANDS .

"This is crazy... I cannot help but feel like i've seen you before, and yet... I know I did not. Perhaps all these warp ring travels are messing with my mind. Yes I see this often, regularly even. Someone would find their way in my office, often head first, and would force me to see them out. Sometime, a magic shop would neatly stand in a city block it wasn't in before. And sometime, escaped convicts would bid their time here, hoping to escape the gaze of zone cops. I take personnal care of this last case, as they tend to bring friends. No one belongs in this place. There's nothing worth coming for, and yet, it keeps happening.

{{ L }} Huh, she didn't know them. Well they did come from two totally different worlds.

  She saw the echidna from the corner of her eye; sad, curled up... alone. Maybe she didn't want to be disturbed, but... there was a twinge in her chest, telling this pink hedgehog otherwise.

  Amy didn't recognise this echidna, and Knuckles didn't mention having any other relatives ( not that it was her business, he didn't need to tell her everything ), so the curiosity got the better of her, which had her slowly making her way over, hoping the trudging of her boots wouldn't startle.

  ❝Thank you,❞ The hedgehog says softly, taking her seat beside her. The silence was deafening for a brief time, the emerald greens of her eyes looking straight ahead, taking quick glances at the other every so often. She really did look so lost.

She's just frustrated...She's been frustrated for years now.

Jani-Ca lifts her head a bit more, gets a better look at the other. Now that she does, she recognizes the lack of age on her face. She's a lot brighter, warmer than the cadaver she'd seen previously. Her eyes sparkle with a softness she hadn't seen in almost anyone since she was a child. Everyone she still knew-- still had around was hardened by their experiences...Steely gazes knowing and ready for their inevitable snuffing out.

{{ L }} " Guess I don't have to worry about making assumptions if your Sonic hung out with your dad. Crazy to think of Knucklehead as a father. " Or that their were other echidnas to begin with. Yet, she was from a different zone.

At that, her expression darkens a bit. Yeeeah, she was hoping to avoid having to clarify that, but perhaps she did say a bit too much already. It would be a little difficult to avoid explaining now.

hey, [name]? hello, anybody home?

thank god i found you.

what's going on? where have you been all week?

y'know, this time it wasn't my fault.

you got a real attitude problem, [name].

why even bother? you haven't got a chance.

yeah, well. history is gonna change.

one rejection isn't the end of the world.

if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything.

i'll call you tonight.

what are you looking at, butthead?

say hi to your mom for me.

do you have any idea how important this was? do you have any clue?

we're gonna have to eat this cake by ourselves.

we all make mistakes in life.

you didn't fall asleep, did you?

welcome to my latest experiment!

all of your questions will be answered.

when this baby hits eighty-eight miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit.

where the hell are they?

i don't get what happened.

things have certainly changed around here.

oh my god, they found me. i don't know how but they found me.

run for it, [name]!

this has gotta be a dream.

i just wanna use the phone.

you wouldn't want that to happen, would you?

i don't wanna see you in here again.

i'm gonna make something out of myself.

you've been asleep for almost nine hours.

do you mind if i sit here?

that's a big bruise you have there.

what were you doing in the middle of the street?

i think you should spend the night.

i don't wanna know your name. i don't wanna know anything about you.

i'm sorry, but i'm afraid you're stuck here.

maybe you were adopted.

what have you been doing all day?

nothing's coming to mind.

i'm writing this down. this is good stuff.

hey, don't i know you from somewhere?

i'm your density. i mean... i'm your destiny.

i'm gonna get that son-of-a-bitch.

how did you know i was here?

i think a man should be strong... so he could stand up for himself and protect the woman he loves.

i never picked a fight in my entire life.

i'm really gonna miss you, [name].

you got a permit for that?

you might regret it later in life.

you're beginning to sound just like my mother.

will we ever see you again?

i have to tell you about the future!

i figured... what the hell.

look me up when you get there.

i can't keep up with all your boyfriends.

i think we need a rematch.

why am i always the last one to know about these things?

like i always told you, if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything.

you're acting like you haven't seen me in a week.
