Car is about to hit something…
Sonic: *hits the brakes but too late… the car hits a person*
Everybody: *are shocked and gets out of the van looking at the… person*
Amy: I-is… is she…?
Manic: *walks to the body and turns it to face the sky* She has closed her eyes. *tries the pulse from her neck* But… I can’t feel her pulse… *stands up looking sad at Amy and Sonic*
Amy: Oh no… *falls on her knees* We… killed… *starts crying*
Sonic: *goes to Amy and puts his hands on Amy’s shoulders, but notices movement in a corner of his eye and it’s not Manic… turns to look at the girl who slowly is standing up*
Manic: What? You look like you… *gets a little presentiment and turns to watch the body, who’s now standing and looking at him*
Sonic: *stands up too*
Amy: *notices what’s going on and is relieved and little scared seeing the girl standing there* I… thought… I thought you died..!
Girl: I… umm… *looks little scared herself*
Manic: *grabs her hand and tries the pulse* Nope! Still don’t feel the pulse! *takes few steps back* You’re dead!
Sonic: *stares at the girl and runs to the van taking the book from there* 666… 666…
Girl: *looks at Sonic looking confused*
Sonic: *looks at the drawing and the girl* I think we have found the Queen!
Amy: *looks at the girl* Yeah..! Now that you mention it… She even has that crown!
Girl: *backs off*
Manic: Hay! Don’t be scared! We’re not gonna hurt you! *takes the book and shows it to the girl* Tell me… is the chick you?
Girl: *excepts the book to her hands and stares at the drawing* It… sure looks like me. *looks at the hedgehogs* Where’d you get this book?
Manic: I found it from a book store!
Girl: Bookstore?
Sonic: It’s a store which sells old books!
Girl: Starts to go through the book* This is amazing! I can’t remember anything about my past! I just remember waking up at Chrysta’s palace!
Sonic: Who’s Chrysta?
Girl: One friend… Umm…
Sonic: Look… There exists four magic medallions. We would like to get those, but we need you’re help! If you come with us we’ll tell everything we know and you tell us your history… well… what you can remember… Okay?
Girl: *thinks*
Amy: *walks to her with a smile* Come on! It’ll be fun! ….. Eh… By the way… I’m Amy! Amy Rose! *handshaking* That blue hedgehog is…
Girl: Sonic! Yes! He saved the world from destroying!
Sonic: *smiles and looks at Manic* She recognised me and you didn’t!
Manic: Let’s just say I don’t stare at pictures of guys!
Amy: *looks at Manic*
Manic: And you look prettier in light purple!
Amy: *blushes* Why thank you! *turns to face the girl* He is…
Girl: Manic! Yes! *smiles*
Manic&Sonic&Amy: *looks at the girl surprised*
Girl: I saw you fighting with the gang you used to belong into. I spend my time lot in that… ehm… neighbourhood!
Manic: Really? Cool! Never seen you, though!
Girl: I stay in the shadows… *reads the book*
Sonic: Right! Let’s get going! Or we find ourselves in this same spot tomorrow! *walks to the van and sits on the driver’s seat*
Amy: *goes sit next to Sonic*
Girl: *sits next to Amy*
Manic: *goes in the back*
Sonic: *starts the car and starts to drive and turns*
Amy: So… What’s your name?
Girl: Oh! I’m sorry… I’m Paula!
Amy: Nice to meet you! ^^
Sonic: Indeed! So… why we need you? Well… Manic tried to steel the book from the bookstore! We stopped him and he told us about the medallions which turns into the instruments! There exist four of them: piano, drums, guitar and bass! I got interested and next we found ourselves from one tomb! The spirit guided us to the medallions, but told us that we had to bring the Queen to open the lock! And we hit you and now we think you’re the Queen and we except you to open the lock! ….. Your turn!
Paula: Uh… well… Where to start… *thinks*
Manic: You mentioned something about this Chrysta fellow!
Paula: Quite! I woke up in Chrysta’s house! She said that I’ve been dead for a while… Chrysta is a siren and she is teaching me to be one too!
Manic&Sonic: *grins to each other*
Sonic: Can you hypnotize people?
Paula: Sometimes. I’m still learning… I can’t control it as good as she can! I mean… When I start to sing I have no idea what might happen.
Amy: Who is this Chrysta?
Paula: She’s a porcupine! She threats people pretty rudely, but she’s kind to me! Even though I’m little angry at her…
Amy: Why? What’ve she done?
Paula: She never told me that I have two souls inside me. I had to find out that myself. She has this Mirror Of Souls in her basement, so I looked in it and saw mine soul, and one human’s soul. It was a little girl… My doubts awoke…That soul causes little trouble with one black hedgehog.
Sonic&Amy: … !!! Shadow!?!
