Speed matters when you're small

    by: chaos Author IconMail Icon
Shadow recognized his surroundings after a few seconds of staring at the giant surroundings. He’d been here several times before, when he wasn’t tiny. Pink wallpaper, with pink curtains and pink carpet decorated the room. Pictures of a smiling blue hedgehog were hanging all around. Some with had him all alone and several were with him standing with a pink hedgehog. This was the home of Amy Rose, Sonic’s girlfriend and usual damsel in distress.

Amy had invited him in several times, but he never stayed long. He found that when he was in her home he always felt very uncomfortable. Amy had a warm and inviting home, which made Shadow uncomfortable. He was used the dirty depressing places that matched his mood, not the happy little home of Ms. Rose. However, right now he’d love to be feeling that uncomfortable sensation. Amy’s giant house was giving him the creeps as he didn’t know how he got there or why he was so small.

“Maybe this is a dream,” he mumbled to himself as he walked around. The carpet fibers reached over his head, making it only possible for him to stare far above him. He could see towering tables and walls that seemed to go up for thousands of miles. He had no idea how small he was, but he’d guess he was about as tall as an ant. It was so insane to wake up the size of an ant that Shadow was convinced that he had to be dreaming. He reached over to pinch his furry arm, when a sudden earthquake followed by a loud boom drew his attention.

Looking around desperately for where the sound was coming from, he saw something huge moving miles away from him. The earthquakes became stronger and the booming louder. Shadow backed away, terrified about what could possible be huge enough to make such a noise. Imaging some giant monster, Shadow nearly collapsed as Amy Rose, seemingly hundreds of miles high enter the room. He had been wrong. He wasn’t the size of an ant, he was much, much smaller.

The city sized girl walked slowly into the room, but to Shadow it seemed like she was traveling miles every time she took a step. She was walking right towards him, he could see the bottom of her red sneakers lifting up and stomping back down on the rug. Running as fast as hover skates would let him, Shadow tried to find safety, but he couldn’t take his eyes off Amy. The cute pink hedgehog looked absolutely terrifying at her size, like a whole mountain walking towards him. Shadow knew this couldn’t be a nightmare. His guilt-induced dreams could never come up with the thought of this titanic girl looming over him. He was running as fast as he could, a speed that would normally match mach-5 speeds. But the carpet was slowing him down and even if he was running on a flat surface, he was only going a foot a minute, not a speed that could match the leisurely walking girl behind him.

Turning his head back to what was in front of him and not the approaching mega-giantess behind him, Shadow saw his salivation. There was a couch only a few miles away from him. Anyone normal would never make it, but Shadow was far from normal. Depressed, but not suicidal, Shadow ran as fast as his furry legs would go. Every second mattered as Amy got so close that Shadow was running under the shade of her short red dress. Looking behind his back, he saw her giant feet lifting up again and coming down where he had been standing a second ago. The carpet was flattened under the treads of her sneakers and Shadow knew he’d be finished if he was under those massive feet. Sweat running down his face, he leapt forward, arms outstretched for space under the couch. He disappeared into the safety under the couch just as Amy’s foot came down. Lying in the darkness, he lay only a few feet from the giant shoe. He watched it lift up again, bits of dirty and dust dropping from the bottom as Amy moved. That had been close.

Relaxing, he watched as Amy continued moving. All he could see were her feet as they stomped down onto the ground. Above him, he heard a screech of steel coils as Amy sat down on the couch. He heard her voice, booming loud, yet still sounding sweet. “What a day I’ve had. I slept in, missed breakfast and Sonic hasn’t called me yet.”

“You think your day was bad? What about mine?” Shadow grumbled, wondering what he had done to deserve this fate. Oh, that’s right. He failed to save Maria.

Before he could go into another fit of remorse, Shadow focused himself in the dangerous situation he was in. He had someone been shrunken and ended up in Amy Rose’s house of all places. Staying under her couch wasn’t going to help him, he’d end up getting crushed under a dust bunny or eaten by a bug the size of small house. Walking over to the edge of the couch, he stared at the tall red wall of rubber that was Amy’s shoe. She was the only one that could help him, but how could she get her attention.

Shadow wasn’t just fast and strong, he also had a genius intellect. He wasn’t called the Ultimate Life Form because he could outrun a cheetah. But even his mind could come up with no way to contact the oblivious giantess without putting him in immediate danger. He needed to get closer to her face and the best way to do that was to travel up either her feet or the couch. It would be easier to get onto her shoe and wait for a chance to get her attention, but it was safer if not slower to climb up the couch. Knowing that he had to do something, Shadow decided, only hoping that luck was on his side for once.

You have the following choices:

1. Shadow climbs Amy's foot

*Noteb*
2. Shadow climbs the couch

3. He forget about it and stays where he is

*Noteb* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
