"My name is Amy Rose and I'm a gypsy like my family were. Unfortunately I'm trying to escape from ruthless men who try to kill me. But now if you read this. I may not be alive as my family is gone. I believe there is hope for us gypsies. My mother is the only family left" a pink hedgehog wearing gypsy clothes was writing in her journal about her life. She put the journal aside and looks out through the window where it was snowing. Then she heard the door burst open and her mother screaming.

"Mother!" Amy screamed and ran down to see a group of troopers sent by the king.

"What do you want?!" Amy's mother yelled.

"In the name of the king it is our order to bring our majesty a young gypsy girl to be his wife and your daughter is the one we are looking for" one of the troopers said. But Amy hides behind her mother.

"No! You won't get my daughter! She's my only family I have. Answer is no!" Amy's mother shouted.

"Arrest them!" the leader of the troopers said and points at them.

"Amy! RUN!" Amy's mother tells Amy. Amy nods and runs away from the troopers as her mother uses a pitchfork to defend herself.

"GET THE GYPSY GIRL!!!!" the trooper leader ordered the other guards to get her by using torches. They ran after Amy and she was trying to get into the woods. The troopers threw their torches to make a fire ring around the house so she won't escape. Amy panicked inside the house trying to find a way out.

"Well come out here gypsy or you will burn!" the troopers shouted.

"I'd rather die than marry that heartless asshole!" Amy screamed out from the window.

"Then so be it!" the troopers shouted and is about to get in to capture Amy, but some burning debris falls in front of the window.

"WHOA!!!" Amy moved out of the way, avoiding from getting burns on her body. She had to get out of there before she gets roasted to death.

"Let's go! We can't get her!" the troopers said, leaving the house to burn. Then inside the burning house; Amy runs up to the upper floor and takes her journal with her. She then sees the flames getting bigger and jumps out of the second floor window before the flames could engulf her. She landed on the ground safely but faints due to have inhaled too much smoke.

While the fire smoke spreads all over the area near the burned house, an unknown creature walking on all fours goes up to the pink hedgehog.

It was a wolf, but twice as big and is dark blue and has green eyes. He was sniffing at the pink hedgehog and heard her breathing. He then hurls her up on his back and is about to get take her in the woods when the guards sees him.

"THERE SHE IS! AND A BLUE WOLF?!" the troopers said.

The blue wolf sees them and runs off with Amy on his back, deep into the woods. The troopers ran after them but the wolf was faster.

"Damn! How are we gonna get that wolf with the gypsy?!" One of the troopers sighs in anger.

"King Scourge isn't gonna be happy about this" the other trooper said.

Back into the woods

The blue wolf carried Amy to an abandoned stone house and Amy was regaining her breath again.

"Uhhhh.... Where am I?" Amy groaned.

The blue wolf makes her lie still by putting his paw on her chest down.

"What do you want?" Amy asked the wolf, crawling back in fright.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you. Calm down" the blue wolf talking in telepathy through the pink hedgehog's mind.

"What the? You can do telepathy? Who are you?" Amy gasped.

"I'm Sonic and I'm not exactly a wolf. I'm a shape-shifter" the blue wolf said in thoughts.

"Shape-shifter? I thought it was just a legend. A myth" Amy gulped.

Sonic smirks and shape-shifts into a mobian hedgehog, still with blue fur and green eyes, "And what's your name gypsy?" he asked her.

"Amy. Wait. How did you know I'm a gypsy?" Amy asked.

"Your clothing. And I saw that the king's troopers tried to catch you and they got your mother. But don't worry you are safe with us" Sonic said.

"Us?" Amy asked.

"I got two more pals that lives nearby, but I don't get along with one of them" Sonic said, "Come, let's go in and get you warmed, its cold here"

"Okay" Amy said and follows him in to the stone house. Inside it was a leathered sofa, cauldron and a bed with a pillow and blanket. Sonic has made up a small fire near the cauldron to make some soup for Amy.

"Wow, very organized. Does it make you feel lonely living in here by yourself?" she asked.

"No, I do get along with Silver. He's a shapeshifter too and he can turn into a deer" Sonic said.

"There are more? And who is the other?" Amy asked.

"Shadow, he can turn into a horse and he is like me and Silver a hedgehog. You'll meet them by tomorrow" Sonic said.

"I see. And by the way, thank you for saving me" Amy said.

"You are welcome....Amy" Sonic said.

Amy goes to his bed and lies back on the soft mattress Sonic has made himself. She then pulls the blanket over herself and rests her head on her pillow. Sonic then came with a bowl of soup to Amy.

"Here, it's best for you so you don't get cold" he said.

"Thanks" Amy said.

Sonic sat near the bed while Amy had her soup and he looked at the window to see it is still snowing outside.

"Well, I guess you have to stay in here where you are safe" Sonic said.

"Yeah. And I can't believe how the King wants me to be his bride" Amy frowns, "They captured my mother. I hope she's still alive. She's the only family I have"

"I hope so. We got to find out how to rescue her somehow. But now I you need some rest. I keep my eye out here" Sonic said.

"Okay, just need to finish my soup" Amy said.

At the castle

The king who was a green hedgehog similar to Sonic was awaiting for Amy's mother to get to him.

"Well, bring her in" He ordered his guards to bring her in. The guards had her in chains and cuffs so she won't get away from them.

"Well gypsy, where is your daughter?!" he asked her.

"I don't know your majesty! That blue wolf must have eaten Amy alive!" Amy's mother said.

"Is it true? Is there anyone else who saw the blue wolf?" he asked his troopers.

"We tried to get her back from the wolf but he was too fast, but he didn't seem to have eaten her" One of the troopers said. The king got up and had his hands behind his back.

"Then search the whole forest, I want Amy back. The one who can find her gets an reward by a bag of gold" the king said.

"I'll go Scourge. You can trust me on this one" a crimson colored echidna said.

"Very well, Crimson. But do not fail me! I want that pink whore alive!" King Scourge said.

"With pleasure sir" Crimson nodded. He then heads out from the throne room while Amy's mother broke down into sadness.

"Take her to the prison chamber" King Scourge ordered his guards to get Amy's mother to the prison chamber.
