Chapter 9: Lesson to Never Forget

Amy Rose felt a rush of confusion as she quickly dashed down the hallway. Her heart was beating quickly asked her eyes darted from side to side looking out for guards, and even Scourge's right-hand man Shadow. She knew she'd made a mistake kicking the King of this crazed world, she knew he was caught there no telling what he would do her. The region is was earlier was apparent whenever she grabbed her arm before she had gave him a swift kick to the groin. His eyes were filled blind rage.

She knew she only had a few mere seconds or minutes at most to hide, but something told her that no matter where she hid he would find her. Even still she ran her soft pawed feet hitting the red carpet hard turning the corners sharp trying to decide which of the random rooms she was going to take refugee in. Luckily she had not come across any slaves, guards, or Royals. Which of course she was thankful for because she knew if she was spotted it would give her way making it quite easy for the green hedgehog to find her.

She did not know why she kicked him, but then again it was no use for her getting punished for something that she did not do. Why would he think that instantly she would comply to his beloved final request? Did he not understand that she had only been there for less than the day? And in that one day she was meant slave against her own will and was expected to comply to this wish with no problem whatsoever? It was ridiculous. She had rights, and apparently her quick actions probably cost more than she bargained for.

Finally coming to the end of the hallway to maze of the Castle, Amy found a large wooden door like many others throughout the Castle she did not know who belong to if it was somebody room or what it led to, but the high callings of the green hedgehog echoing to the hallway behind her told her to instantly to choose that door. She dove in slamming the door shut, with her back against it should looked around the room noticing that it was once bedroom. Who's? She did not know. All she knew was what she saw. No window, only a large bed, a wooden table with a wooden chair, and a few sconces that was on the wall lit the room up with the eerie glow that only cast enough light to barely make around the surroundings. The bed was pressed corner of the room the front and the right side against the walls.

Amy did not think too much and she dove up under the bed slamming against cobblestone wall and pressing herself as close to it she could, she thought maybe if she stayed here long enough he would not find her, but to her dismay her previous thoughts seem to come more true than what she really wanted. She was right she only had a few moments to run, but unlike what she thought earlier Scourge did not call out any guards to help them find her. He had gotten up and swiftly walked the hallway rounding the corner of the area as Amy had dashed into the room, hearing her slam the door.

He knew very well where she was. She wasn't going to make a fool of him, but that didn't mean that he was not going to make a fool of her.

Amy shook as she saw the shadow cast from the wooden door as he walked right by. The pink hedgehog took a deep breath, maybe he was stupider then she thought. She still stayed put though, her eyes still glued to the door as she heard outside is a nearby door opened up.

"Hitting me wasn't your best option Rose." Scourge voice poured from the other room, "though you might seem quite strong, you already know I'm stronger, and you are not going to like it was to get my hands on you. This now is nothing to do with Fiona, this deals with your disobedience, and don't think you'll be getting just a mere whipping Rose. No, that would not be it at all."

Amy's ears remain flat against her head as she heard a dark chuckle emit from his throat from the other room. Not a moment later the other door shut. The pink hedgehog watch as the shadows of his feet went back over the door threshold. She jumped when she heard the following words, "I know you are in here, Rose."

She tried pushing herself up close to the wall as she watched the door come open, the light behind them casting a shadow across the room. He shut it, chuckling darkly once more. "I was hoping to be easy on you Rose. I really wanted to give you the chance, the benefit of the doubt that you would be a loyal servant. I thought your first punishment would've changed your outlook on me that maybe for once I could be lenient, nice, and forgiving." His footsteps start to encircle the room, "but I now know I was wrong, I now know just how you are. I stated earlier you to comply to all my rules, and any other case if it was anyone else in the kingdom I would have them killed, beheaded, for even half of what you've done to me today. Remember what I told you I'm just, not friendly, I meant it, and I am about to show you just how JUST I am."

Amy still shook tremendously at his footsteps stopped his feet right at the side of the bed. She watched as he kneeled down chuckling as his bright blue eyes glowed with the flickering lights of the fire sconces. His face still laced with the traces of tears on his face.

"Found you."

Amy cried out as he swiftly grabbed the edge of the bed post and with a quick pull slid it away from the wall. The pink hedgehog went to jump up again, once more in attempt to run, but was taken back as the green hedgehog tackled the hedgehog as she stood to run, pinning her hard against the wall. Her metal collar slamming against the wall nearly choking her.

Scourge's mouth was near her ear as he, heavy breathed growled slightly, "Ugh uh Rose. No. I'm not gonna let you run. I won't even give you the chance." He pressed his body against her causing the hedgehog to tremble as he held her in place. "There's a specific duty I asked of you before, and this is one of the lessons you are about to learn."

Amy cried out trying her hardest to push the green hedgehog from her as she could feel his hot breath on her neck. "P-Please S-Scourge, I don't know what you have planned, but please don't..."

"You don't know what I've got planned?" a sadistic chuckle arose from Scourge as he pushed his body against hers harder, the rocks in the stone wall digging into her back, "Oh I think you know very well..." He grinned, his teeth sharp, and his eyes translucent as she saw it in his face.

It was not blind rage any more, but pure lust, mixed with the anger and sadness of what he had just went through. Where one would normally drink their pains away with alcohol, he was different. She was his way of coping, her pain at his expense.

There was no stopping him now as he began kissing her down her neck, groping her, she could no nothing, she couldn't push him away. He was way stronger than her. She was trapped, the door shut tight, and no one was near, though she had wished they were.

Still there was no one, not a soul to hear the screams that soon echoed through the empty halls, from behind the wooden door, as the king taught Amy her newest lesson she'd never forget.
