Rikki was napping quietly and Sonic had been asleep for multiple hours. Ash found everything but pleasure or entertainment from flipping through channels.
She finally shut off the television and ventured to the kitchen. The leftovers from last night sat at the front of the refrigerator—at least, what she and Rikki has eaten. Since the transformation, her brother had lost all signs of appetite.
Ash chose a ripe green apple from a basket by the sink, and slid her teeth into it. Upon pulling the apple out of the spears that had become her teeth, she noticed the vampiric marks that she had left from the bite.
I wonder if he could bite me...then it wouldn't be so bad, she thought.
After killing the fruit with her teeth, she couldn't help but to sit at the table and write in the diary she kept. No one else knew about it, and she tried her best to keep it that way.
She stopped.
A voice, one that she heard so rarely, was at work. She gently nudged the door to Sonic's door open, and he was gently strumming his muted guitar.
Waking up at the start at the end of the world,
But it's feeling just like every other morning before,
Now I wonder what my life is gonna mean when it's gone.
The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour and I
Started staring at the passengers and waving goodbye.
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?
He stopped singing, and looked up at Ash, and she sat down next to him on his bed. She continued.
I believe the world is burning to the ground.
Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out.
Let's see how far we've come.
Let's see how far we've come.
"Stop," he said, putting his hand on her shoulder.
Suddenly, Sonic began to tremble. He tore away from Ash and leapt out the window.
Ash's whiskers twitched, and she followed him out where she landed nimbly on a branch. Her brother, on the ground in his other form, looked up at her.
"Stop giving me the kitten eyes," he groaned, and turned away.
Ash jumped down, and sharpened her claws on the tree she was just in
Then, she placed her hands on his shoulders, which were so much higher than hers now.
"I'm sorry," she apologized.
"Don't be," he said.
"But I am," she whispered.
With that, she blasted off and sat by a small river. She felt something knock her from behind, and she fell in. Ash turned around, and a "gangster" teenager stood in front of her. She growled, and shot out her claws, while thrashing in the water. Normally, she loved the water, could breathe in it, swam whenever she could. Un cat form, the water was her enemy; she hated it, couldn't swim, and was just about as likely to drown as any other water-hating, unable-to-swim person.
The scared teen sped off, and she freaked out as water filled her mouth and she went under.
She woke up wrapped in a towel, in someone's arms, near something warm.
Ash immediately recognized Will's smell, holding her, and Sonic's smell somewhere nearby. Her eyes fluttered open, and milliseconds after, Will's lips met hers. Since they had fallen in love, normal kisses were enough for them--tongue kisses? Seriously? Those were just stupid.
He pulled away, and she sat up slowly, wrapping her arms around him and closing her eyes in fear of having to see Sonic--it was the middle of the night by now, she was sure of it.
"Ash, it's daylight," Sonic said. She opened her eyes, and realized that something was different Her tail was much shorter, and she couldn't get her claws to come out.
"It's over?" she asked.
"No," he replied sadly. "He did it to you, too."
