Well...it's nice that Amy isn't holding your past actions against ya Coopy
“Well maybe she fucking should. Maybe she should kill me before I kill her. I can’t tell which I’d prefer, honestly.”
“Fucking hallucinations….as if I’d actually miss those bastards. They all betrayed me, took Rita and ran like cowards. And Rita, that stupid brat. Maybe if I killed Greg sooner, none of this would’ve happened. Maybe if I just…just….”
*His eyes close and he leans back once again*
“I don’t know, man. I’m so tired.”
🪶 *Talons suddenly wrap around Cooper’s neck, slamming him into the floor*
Rita’s a brat, are they? I’m surprised to see you actually free, Chaos Beast.
*Cooper grunts in pain as his ribs ache and the talons dig into his throat*
“Who the fuck are you?!”
🪶 I am Arrow Feather. Rita’s told me a lot about you, but I never thought I’d actually see you face to face.
You look much weaker than I expected. Not like a crazed villain at all. Your chaos form was much more impressive.
*Cooper lets out a strangled laugh*
“It was, wasn’t it!? Don’t underestimate me, owl. I can still fight, and I’ve been itching to spill blood.”
🪶 *Without a word, Arrow lifts his head and slams it into the floor, talons digging into the side of his head*
*They do it again. And again.*
*Warm blood trickles from the back of Cooper’s skull as his vision blurs.*
*The urge to let this owl kill him is strong. He closes his eyes*
‘kill it.’
*A surge of energy rushes through him and he rips himself free from the talons, rushing forward and stabbing at the owl*
🪶 *Arrow dodges, not surprised by the attack at all. Cooper’s knife clips their wing, but they don’t dare wince.*
*A white energy emits from their eyes and they screech, a harsh echo reverberating around the room before the lunge at Cooper with incredible speed*
*Cooper yells out at the harsh sound, covering his ears. It scrapes inside his skull, but the voice gets louder.*
*He barely registers the intense pain in his chest until he realizes Arrow has their talons pierced through his torso*
🪶 I have learned a lot, Damian Cooper, from being on this planet. I have learned to love and forgive, but I have also learned that humans are vile, hateful creatures.
Are you as vile as they say?
*They lift their claws, pulling Cooper’s soul along with it. They are going to see exactly what he’s made of.*
*An intense fear rushes through him and he attempts to rip himself free from Arrow’s grasp, but the more he pulls, the more of himself comes loose*
*Strands of murky darkness mixed with light emerge from his body. He thrashers and squirms. He doesn’t want to see this.*
🪶 *Arrow concentrates on keeping him steady as they continue to pull.*
*As they get past the outer layer, something else emerges. A ghostly hand claws its way out from Cooper’s chest, dark and murky and glowing with a corrupted chaos energy*
*The figure grabs Arrow’s talons and a horrible burning shoots through them, so bad they drop Cooper with a screech*
*Cooper drops limp to the ground. He stands back up, his movements awkward and janky*
*A wide smile crosses his face as the figure sinks back into him*
“You wanted to see me so badly, owl? Here I am.”
*He spreads out his arms in a presenting manner*
*He steps forward, knife held firmly*
🪶 W- Wait. Cooper. Something is wrong. Listen to me. That thing, that wasn’t supposed to be there. You shouldn’t be alive. There’s no possible way you should be alive right now!!
“Oh I’m well aware. But if I’m gifted another chance at life, why should I squander it?”
🪶 *Arrow backs away and spreads their wings, ready to flee, but a sharp stinging pain rushes through them as Cooper’s knife buries firmly into the side*
*The draw back, shaking him off and taking off through the ruined roof. The pain is unbearable, blood dripping from the sky as they fly. But they can’t stop now.*
*Cooper stares blankly at the ceiling as the owl flies away. The burning in his chest is intense and he slowly lowers himself on the couch and closes his eyes*
*He doesn’t know how to feel right now.*
Well...it's nice that Amy isn't holding your past actions against ya Coopy
“Well maybe she fucking should. Maybe she should kill me before I kill her. I can’t tell which I’d prefer, honestly.”

*Cooper rests his head on the back of the couch, arms wrapped tightly around his ribs. Ever breath feels like horrible fire in his ribcage*
*Well I’ll be damned. You actually are alive.
*He hazily opens his eyes and tilts his head forward. A familiar blond man stood in front of him*
“…B- Booker…?”
*This is, what, the third time you’ve escaped death?
“Something like that…why are you here?”
*Evan sits next to him*
*Come on. I heard my best bud Coop is still kicking and you expect me not to come find you?
“Y- you came to find me…? I tried to kill you.”
*Yeah well, I put a gun to your head once so like, it evens out I think.
*Cooper narrows his eyes, searching the mans face*
“Ok….but seriously, why are you here? Why would you bother looking for me after everything? Don’t you have people you love and shit?”
*Wow, so hostile, Coop. If you want me to leave so bad, I’ll just leave.
“N- No, wait! Booker!!”
*Booker stands and starts to walk out*
“Booker, please, I’m- I’m sorry! I’m sorry for everything! I’m sorry I stabbed you, I’m sorry for Rita, I’m sorry for tricking you and manipulating you and everything, I-“
*Stop lying to yourself, Damian. You’re not sorry at all.
*You just want to make yourself feel better. That guilt? It’s guilt that you put yourself in this situation.
*Evan turns around. He has no face. Then he vanishes.*
*Cooper quietly laughs to himself.*
“Right….right…..Booker would never look for me. Dammit….”
Owen still hasn't come home....Wade and I are getting worried.....I need to find Chopstick. If she can help me find Erin we can find the floating island and maybe the last Echidna can help us.
@erintheweasel
*Chopstick is out in a field, an odd little device in her hands. It beeps as she pans around*
Chaos readings abnormally high…raised 10% since last week. This is bad…
*She flicks an ear as there are footsteps behind her*
Who’s there? Show yourself!!
*Amy comes bounding out of the trees, running over to Chopstick. Now that her ankle is fully healed she's as sore as she was when she arrived to earth*
Choppy! Thank chaos I found you!
*Amy throws her arms around the other girl and hugs her tightly*
I need your help! Owen hasn't been home in days and Wade is worried out of his mind and he says the sheriff can't find Owen anywhere!
*Chopstick nuzzles against Amy as she hugs her, letting out a happy squeak*
I’ll help you look. I’ve been picking up really weird chaos waves around this area, and I’m wondering if that has anything to do with him. The energy levels have been steadily rising and it’s making me worried.
Hopefully it's Owen, I...I can't share the details because I promised I wouldn't tell anyone but he's got a big secret he's been hiding and I'm just really hoping it can help us find him. I thought maybe we could enlist the last Echidna for help, apparently he's really close with Wade and Owen.
*She fusses with the zipper of her jacket as she talks to Chopstick*
Please don't be mad at me for not telling you.
I’m not mad, don’t worry. Everyone has their reasons for hiding things, and I kiiinda already one something was going on with him. We could see if Knuckles will help us, and I’d ask Erin too but she hasn’t been around for a while, and Thrasher is….
Chaos- why is everyone always either missing or in some kind of danger?!
*Her tail lashes and she throws the device on the ground in anger*
You’d think after everything they could stay out of trouble for one goddamn second!!
*Amy sets a gentle hand on Chopstick's back, pulling her into a tight hug and keeping the other girl close to her chest*
Hey, it's gonna be okay. I know things are wild and scary right now and it sucks that the people we love keep having things happen to them but we'll make it through this.
*She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a tarot card to show to Chopstick. It showed an owl themed hourglass*
I trust the cards, they've never lied to me and I've seen good in everyone's futures. We all have happiness and love coming to us, family and reunions of friends. We just have to keep going, let the sands run and follow the paths before us.
*She pressed a soft kiss to the other's temple*
Besides, the cards brought me here. And by being here it brought me to you and Neo.
*Chopstick smiles weakly and lets out a small trill*
I- I trust you, Amy. And I want to believe things will get better, even if it’s kinda hard right now…
*She nuzzles Amy’s cheek and gives it a kiss*
Now let’s see if we can track down Owen.
*Amy nodded, kissing Chopstick back before picking up the equipment*
If we track the chaos energy signal to the origin that might give us some answers.
*She pulled her hammer out of her quills and extended it, resting it on her shoulder*
Lead the way my esteemed lady, anything comes at us I'll handle it with this bad boy!
*Chopstick couldn’t help but giggle a little. Her girlfriend was so cool.*
*She picked up the device and pointed it towards the forest. The beeping was now rapid. She gave a small nod to herself and gripped Amy’s hand before venturing in*
*She follows after Chopstick, one hand holding her girlfriend's and the other with a tight grip on her hammer*
How have things been as not a robot? I kinda had to dip back into hiding for the ankle, that's how Owen and Wade ended up finding me. Well....Owen found me. Wade came home from work and freaked out when he saw us on the couch with sandwiches watching say yes to the dress. Love that show.
It’s…interesting. Not a bad interesting, but I’m still getting used to it. As a robot, I could almost sense everything. Energy levels, data, radio waves, frequencies, it was a constant stream of information. I took it all so seriously, too. My purpose was to protect Erin, after all.
It’s so quiet now. I’m still kinda trying to figure out who I am. I of course still want to protect my family! But I’m also someone beyond that. Someone I don’t know just yet.
And Puppy…I was worried it’d be different with him now, but it isn’t, really. I don’t think he even notices a difference in me, which is kinda nice, though I can tell he sometimes forgets I’m not a robot.
I'm glad things are going good for you, I'm sure once things settle down we could always go around the city and see what we find out about who you are. Has your brother ever-
*Amy hears a noise in the bushes, holding her arm out so Chopstick was behind her and her hammer at the ready*
Who's there?! Come out and maybe I won't beat you up with my hammer!
*The device is beeping rapidly, the screen showing intense waves of chaos passing through the area.*
*Chopstick pins her ears back, reaching for a small knife on her belt*
Amy, maybe we should-
It's okay, I'll protect you Chopstick. Just stay behind me.
*Amy takes a small knife from a holster on her leg and throws it into the bushes*
Come out with your hands up or I'm gonna come in there!
*There’s a growl, low and guttural*
*A strange form emerges, a mass of muscles and green sludge, with the vague face of a human man*
O h? Yo u sou nd so confi dent, hedgehog.
*Amy is firm in her stance, hammer at the ready*
You! You're that thing Owen say he was going to deal with! What did you do with him?
*She doesn't look back but lowers her voice*
Choppy, this thing is dangerous. Stupid dangerous. When it attacks I'm going to keep it here. You need to run and find the Last Echidna as fast as you can. He's a warrior, he can protect you.
*She raises her voice again, spinning her hammer in hand*
You wanna dance ugly? Because I will sweep the floor with you!
Ow en? Ran. But I t aste d hi s ener gy. I nee d more.
*Its eyes lock on Chopstick*
Y ou we re chang ed by the Eme r al d. Yo u will do nicely.
*He lunges, jaw unhinging*
NOT HAPPENING GOO BOY! LET'S DANCE!
*Amy lunges forward and slams her hammer into Cooper's jaw, unleashing a multitude of attacks on it*
CHOPPY GET OUT OF HERE! FIND THE ECHIDNA!
*Chopstick slowly backs away before turning to run, whispering ‘im sorry’ over and over*
*Cooper snarls and starts to chase after her*
MY PREY!!
*Amy quickly slams her hammer into Cooper's head, not letting up her attacks*
NICE TRY BUT THE ONLY PREY HERE IS YOU! AND I'M GONNA ROAST YOU FOR DINNER!
*She gets between Cooper and Chopstick again, slamming her hammer into its face and body over and over again*
WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY DAD?
*He lets her pummel into his body over and over before grabbing her hammer with hand hand, his muscles growing and claws digging into the metal*
Th e Ag e nt? I do no t kn o w. I ga ve cha se, but i n the end, he lef t me hun gry. Perhaps…you will fill me.
*Tendrils grab both her arms and lift her into the air*
Nice try but I don't have anything for you because hedgehog isn't on the menu!
*She uses the angle from the tendrils to slam her heels in his face, her inhibitor rings falling off as she rips herself and her hammer out of his grasp*
You're gonna starve out here you know! Once I find Owen we're gonna take you down!
*She lands in a tree, sticking her tongue out at him*
*The beast screams, its roar mixing with Cooper’s cry*
YOU HORRIBLE BRAT
PLE ASE!! I M SO HUNGRY!!
*Cooper falls forward, clutching his stomach in pain as he cries out*
Dammit. DAMMIT!! LET ME DIE ALREADY!!!
*But he cries are swallowed once again by the chaos*
*Amy bit her lip, diving back into the fight*
Cooper if you can hear me I need you to fight back! Fight the chaos energy! You can contain it, destroy it in your own body! You can rest if you do!
*She wasn't sure if it would work but she kept up her attacks, hoping the shell of Cooper could hear her. He may have messed up royally but every soul deserved a restful death*
*The beasts movements were slow and unsteady. It was clear it was having some kind of internal battle*
*And then, as Amy landed an attack, the chaos exploded and sank into the ground, and a mostly human Cooper fell forward*
F- Fuck….i- it’s gone…?
Cooper!
*Amy ran forward, grabbing the human and pulling him away from the area a bit just in case the chaos beast reared it's ugly head*
You're okay, it's okay. It's gone, it's gone. Are you....how are you alive? Owen told me stories....he said that you had been killed before that thing took over.
*Amy carefully helped Cooper rest against a tree, her hammer back in her quils as she pulled out some bandages from her hip bag*
Owen…? God- Owen. Is he alive?! I need to-
*Cooper tried to stand, but he’s way too weak*
Fuuuck…I- I shouldn’t be alive. I don’t know what happened. The last thing I remember was an explosion a- and…
*He coughs, holding his ribs*
I’m starving….
*Amy helped him sit back down, keeping up her work on bandaging and cleaning his wounds*
Hey, hey it's okay. Just sit down, stay still you're in no position to look for Owen. He...he said to stay at the house but he hasn't been home in weeks so I went out to find him. I don't know exactly what happened but from what I've been told you hurt a lot of people. Someone named Maria tried to stop you and the others thought it worked until....until you became some kind of chaos beast. They thought it was just using your corpse as a form but I guess the chaos energy slowly healed you and well...you're alive.
*Amy dug around in her sling bag before pulling out a sandwich and holding it out to Cooper*
Here, Wade packed it for me. Lettuce, cucumber and tomato on whole wheat. Sorry I uh...I kinda had to beat you up.
Right…I remember that.
*He bites into the sandwich, his jaw moving awkwardly, not used to it not being unhinged*
Alive. I shouldn’t be alive. Something isn’t right here at all. The chaos energy I injected into myself was far past the limit any organic being can handle. There’s no possible way someone like you could kill it.
Uh…who are you, anyways?
I don't think I killed it. I think I weakened it enough you could. I think subconsciously you've been fighting back against that thing this whole time and that's why you're alive instead of dead. By fighting it back you absorbed it and it healed you.
*At his question Amy stood up and brushed off her dress and did a little curtsy, Cooper was able to get a clear look at her jacket now. It was Owen's old C.W.R jacket.*
Amelia Briar Rose at your service but everyone calls me Amy Rose. We'll get you patched up and somewhere safe then I'm gonna go find Owen.
Forget about me, kid. Go find Owen. Last time I saw him, he was running towards the mutant rat’s house.
I highly doubt anyone wants me in their home, anyways.
Nope, not happening. I don't leave people alone to fend for themselves on the battle field and Owen always says people deserve a second chance. Come on, up we go. Lean on me, there a cabin I found that you can stay at. The place looks like it hasn't been used in a while but there's no perishables and blankets. Clothes too.
*Amy puts her bracelets back on and stands, helping Cooper to his feet slowly*
Tell me about yourself, from before the chaos beast. I need to make sure you're not concussed.
God uh…ok, lets see…
I used to be a director at G.U.N, made a mutant rat to act as a super weapon, tried to kill my former roommate, my mutant rat project ran away on me, I created a super collider to correct the universe, lost a couple limbs, stabbed my ex multiple times, ingested a….number of chaos vials, died in an explosion, realized I wasn’t actually dead but couldn’t move my body. Was in a constant state of starvation and ate a couple deer.
Ya know. The usual stuff.
Okay so you goofed it big time. I don't know if people are gonna forgive you for that one Coop but at least you can work to keep that from happening to anyone else.
*Amy stays close, helping Cooper walk the best she can since she was shorter than him*
At least it was deer you ate and not people or mobians. You didn't eat any of them....right?
God no I didn’t eat them. I mean, I tried, but I didn’t succeed.
…You know I’m not sorry for any of the shit I did, right? I’m very much still a disgraced lunatic. I still want Greg Spears and Evan Booker dead.
Lunatic or not I'm not gonna leave you to die in the middle of nowhere. I don't know who or where those people are so even if you did find them in your state you probably wouldn't get what you want out of it. I think you deserve another chance and a lot of therapy. Maybe a stint in a mental hospital for some help but I can't help you if you're dead.
*Amy spots the cabin and gets the door open, helping Cooper sit down on the couch*
Alright, I'm gonna see if I can find you something for the pain and get you better bandages. After that I need to find my girlfriend and Owen. I'll check in on you periodically, we aren't too far from town. Try not to kill anyone there okay? I really like the coffee shop in town and I don't wanna see it closed because someone got killed. Plus I think it would give Wade a heart attack.
“I’ll do my very best not to.”
*There’s a hint of sarcasm in his voice. He leans back against the couch, letting his eyes close*
“You’re a good kid. You remind me of Rita. Stubborn and strong willed, and always seeing the best in people…Owen is lucky.”
*He hisses in pain as green veins shoot through his neck*
“I’m still unstable. You should go.”
Owen still hasn't come home....Wade and I are getting worried.....I need to find Chopstick. If she can help me find Erin we can find the floating island and maybe the last Echidna can help us.
@erintheweasel
*Chopstick is out in a field, an odd little device in her hands. It beeps as she pans around*
Chaos readings abnormally high…raised 10% since last week. This is bad…
*She flicks an ear as there are footsteps behind her*
Who’s there? Show yourself!!
*Amy comes bounding out of the trees, running over to Chopstick. Now that her ankle is fully healed she's as sore as she was when she arrived to earth*
Choppy! Thank chaos I found you!
*Amy throws her arms around the other girl and hugs her tightly*
I need your help! Owen hasn't been home in days and Wade is worried out of his mind and he says the sheriff can't find Owen anywhere!
*Chopstick nuzzles against Amy as she hugs her, letting out a happy squeak*
I’ll help you look. I’ve been picking up really weird chaos waves around this area, and I’m wondering if that has anything to do with him. The energy levels have been steadily rising and it’s making me worried.
Hopefully it's Owen, I...I can't share the details because I promised I wouldn't tell anyone but he's got a big secret he's been hiding and I'm just really hoping it can help us find him. I thought maybe we could enlist the last Echidna for help, apparently he's really close with Wade and Owen.
*She fusses with the zipper of her jacket as she talks to Chopstick*
Please don't be mad at me for not telling you.
I’m not mad, don’t worry. Everyone has their reasons for hiding things, and I kiiinda already one something was going on with him. We could see if Knuckles will help us, and I’d ask Erin too but she hasn’t been around for a while, and Thrasher is….
Chaos- why is everyone always either missing or in some kind of danger?!
*Her tail lashes and she throws the device on the ground in anger*
You’d think after everything they could stay out of trouble for one goddamn second!!
*Amy sets a gentle hand on Chopstick's back, pulling her into a tight hug and keeping the other girl close to her chest*
Hey, it's gonna be okay. I know things are wild and scary right now and it sucks that the people we love keep having things happen to them but we'll make it through this.
*She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a tarot card to show to Chopstick. It showed an owl themed hourglass*
I trust the cards, they've never lied to me and I've seen good in everyone's futures. We all have happiness and love coming to us, family and reunions of friends. We just have to keep going, let the sands run and follow the paths before us.
*She pressed a soft kiss to the other's temple*
Besides, the cards brought me here. And by being here it brought me to you and Neo.
*Chopstick smiles weakly and lets out a small trill*
I- I trust you, Amy. And I want to believe things will get better, even if it’s kinda hard right now…
*She nuzzles Amy’s cheek and gives it a kiss*
Now let’s see if we can track down Owen.
*Amy nodded, kissing Chopstick back before picking up the equipment*
If we track the chaos energy signal to the origin that might give us some answers.
*She pulled her hammer out of her quills and extended it, resting it on her shoulder*
Lead the way my esteemed lady, anything comes at us I'll handle it with this bad boy!
*Chopstick couldn’t help but giggle a little. Her girlfriend was so cool.*
*She picked up the device and pointed it towards the forest. The beeping was now rapid. She gave a small nod to herself and gripped Amy’s hand before venturing in*
*She follows after Chopstick, one hand holding her girlfriend's and the other with a tight grip on her hammer*
How have things been as not a robot? I kinda had to dip back into hiding for the ankle, that's how Owen and Wade ended up finding me. Well....Owen found me. Wade came home from work and freaked out when he saw us on the couch with sandwiches watching say yes to the dress. Love that show.
It’s…interesting. Not a bad interesting, but I’m still getting used to it. As a robot, I could almost sense everything. Energy levels, data, radio waves, frequencies, it was a constant stream of information. I took it all so seriously, too. My purpose was to protect Erin, after all.
It’s so quiet now. I’m still kinda trying to figure out who I am. I of course still want to protect my family! But I’m also someone beyond that. Someone I don’t know just yet.
And Puppy…I was worried it’d be different with him now, but it isn’t, really. I don’t think he even notices a difference in me, which is kinda nice, though I can tell he sometimes forgets I’m not a robot.
I'm glad things are going good for you, I'm sure once things settle down we could always go around the city and see what we find out about who you are. Has your brother ever-
*Amy hears a noise in the bushes, holding her arm out so Chopstick was behind her and her hammer at the ready*
Who's there?! Come out and maybe I won't beat you up with my hammer!
*The device is beeping rapidly, the screen showing intense waves of chaos passing through the area.*
*Chopstick pins her ears back, reaching for a small knife on her belt*
Amy, maybe we should-
It's okay, I'll protect you Chopstick. Just stay behind me.
*Amy takes a small knife from a holster on her leg and throws it into the bushes*
Come out with your hands up or I'm gonna come in there!
*There’s a growl, low and guttural*
*A strange form emerges, a mass of muscles and green sludge, with the vague face of a human man*
O h? Yo u sou nd so confi dent, hedgehog.
*Amy is firm in her stance, hammer at the ready*
You! You're that thing Owen say he was going to deal with! What did you do with him?
*She doesn't look back but lowers her voice*
Choppy, this thing is dangerous. Stupid dangerous. When it attacks I'm going to keep it here. You need to run and find the Last Echidna as fast as you can. He's a warrior, he can protect you.
*She raises her voice again, spinning her hammer in hand*
You wanna dance ugly? Because I will sweep the floor with you!
Ow en? Ran. But I t aste d hi s ener gy. I nee d more.
*Its eyes lock on Chopstick*
Y ou we re chang ed by the Eme r al d. Yo u will do nicely.
*He lunges, jaw unhinging*
NOT HAPPENING GOO BOY! LET'S DANCE!
*Amy lunges forward and slams her hammer into Cooper's jaw, unleashing a multitude of attacks on it*
CHOPPY GET OUT OF HERE! FIND THE ECHIDNA!
*Chopstick slowly backs away before turning to run, whispering ‘im sorry’ over and over*
*Cooper snarls and starts to chase after her*
MY PREY!!
*Amy quickly slams her hammer into Cooper's head, not letting up her attacks*
NICE TRY BUT THE ONLY PREY HERE IS YOU! AND I'M GONNA ROAST YOU FOR DINNER!
*She gets between Cooper and Chopstick again, slamming her hammer into its face and body over and over again*
WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY DAD?
*He lets her pummel into his body over and over before grabbing her hammer with hand hand, his muscles growing and claws digging into the metal*
Th e Ag e nt? I do no t kn o w. I ga ve cha se, but i n the end, he lef t me hun gry. Perhaps…you will fill me.
*Tendrils grab both her arms and lift her into the air*
Nice try but I don't have anything for you because hedgehog isn't on the menu!
*She uses the angle from the tendrils to slam her heels in his face, her inhibitor rings falling off as she rips herself and her hammer out of his grasp*
You're gonna starve out here you know! Once I find Owen we're gonna take you down!
*She lands in a tree, sticking her tongue out at him*
*The beast screams, its roar mixing with Cooper’s cry*
YOU HORRIBLE BRAT
PLE ASE!! I M SO HUNGRY!!
*Cooper falls forward, clutching his stomach in pain as he cries out*
Dammit. DAMMIT!! LET ME DIE ALREADY!!!

I dont think Owen and his fiance Wade ever got a chance to talk about having kids? Owen found Amy hiding in their attic after her ankle was broken and she's been theirs since. She's a good kid, you can tell she loves Owen and Wade a lot
Owen has a fiance??? Since when?!?!?
Owen still hasn't come home....Wade and I are getting worried.....I need to find Chopstick. If she can help me find Erin we can find the floating island and maybe the last Echidna can help us.

Hey, hey it's okay. Just sit down, stay still you're in no position to look for Owen. He...he said to stay at the house but he hasn't been home in weeks so I went out to find him. I don't know exactly what happened but from what I've been told you hurt a lot of people.

Right…I remember that.
*He bites into the sandwich, his jaw moving awkwardly, not used to it not being unhinged*
Alive. I shouldn’t be alive. Something isn’t right here at all. The chaos energy I injected into myself was far past the limit any organic being can handle. There’s no possible way someone like you could kill it.
Uh…who are you, anyways?
I don't think I killed it. I think I weakened it enough you could. I think subconsciously you've been fighting back against that thing this whole time and that's why you're alive instead of dead. By fighting it back you absorbed it and it healed you.
*At his question Amy stood up and brushed off her dress and did a little curtsy, Cooper was able to get a clear look at her jacket now. It was Owen's old C.W.R jacket.*
Amelia Briar Rose at your service but everyone calls me Amy Rose. We'll get you patched up and somewhere safe then I'm gonna go find Owen.
Forget about me, kid. Go find Owen. Last time I saw him, he was running towards the mutant rat’s house.
I highly doubt anyone wants me in their home, anyways.
Nope, not happening. I don't leave people alone to fend for themselves on the battle field and Owen always says people deserve a second chance. Come on, up we go. Lean on me, there a cabin I found that you can stay at. The place looks like it hasn't been used in a while but there's no perishables and blankets. Clothes too.
*Amy puts her bracelets back on and stands, helping Cooper to his feet slowly*
Tell me about yourself, from before the chaos beast. I need to make sure you're not concussed.
God uh…ok, lets see…
I used to be a director at G.U.N, made a mutant rat to act as a super weapon, tried to kill my former roommate, my mutant rat project ran away on me, I created a super collider to correct the universe, lost a couple limbs, stabbed my ex multiple times, ingested a….number of chaos vials, died in an explosion, realized I wasn’t actually dead but couldn’t move my body. Was in a constant state of starvation and ate a couple deer.
Ya know. The usual stuff.
