Do you think about Amy Rose and hope?

Do you ever think about that terrified kid stopping to talk to another hurt, terrified kid, choosing to ignore the warnings because way deep down under all the anger, she saw someone desperate for hope that things can get better?

Do you ever stop to think how horrified Amy Rose was when Shadow 'died' changing his mind? Stopping the Biolizard? Saving the world?

Do you think she saw that flash of a falling star as Shadow burned in the atmosphere and felt fear grip her? Only to have a moment of hope when she saw Sonic walk through the door, only to have her heart drop through the floor because he's alone?

Do you think it keeps her up at night?

Do you know this isn't the first time this has happened? She reached out to Gamma, to the living, hoping thing inside of them, and Gamma died, too. But that was different. The living, hoping thing inside of Gamma got to live on. What is left of Shadow but a name whispered without making eye contact, if that?

Do you think she fears she's cursed?

Do you think she hates herself a little?

Do you think she wonders if this is why everyone leaves her behind?

Do you stop to wonder what on Earth was going through her mind when she saw Shadow again?

Do you think she wanted to tell him?

Do you think she was afraid?

Do you think she saw that blank stare and realized he didn't remember?

Do you think about when Amy found out Shadow was homeless? Do you think she was was angry? At herself, at GUN, at the world? Thank goodness Rouge took him in. Thank goodness Rouge was there, her and Omega. She and Rouge might not have always seen eye to eye, but that doesn't matter. Not right now. They won't let anything bad happen to him. Anything worse, anyway.

Do you think she was afraid during the Black Amy's invasion, terrified upon loosing track of Cream? Then there's Shadow, silent like his namesake, and without any questions asked, he helps. How shitty does she feel? She hasn't told him yet. She can feel the anger, the sadness, the confusion radiating off of them. Still waters hide a lot. They run deep and cold and faster than you expect. As afraid of being honest with him as she is, she knows she has to at some point.

Do you think of how she took the news of Shadow joining GUN? Do you think about the thoughts racing through her head as she tried to figure out what to do with her face? With her hands?

Do you think that, as he remembered bits and pieces, as she saw the lights come back on in his eyes, she wondered if he remembered what happened? On the ARK? In the dark of that observation room? That quiet conversation between two scared kids talking about hope? He doesn't talk to her much. She wants to reach out so badly, but at the same time, she's afraid of hurting him.

Do you think about that deep breath she took as she buried that fear and anger way down in herself? Like bacteria in the center of a pearl, she tucks it deep and works on fostering something new.

Do you think about Amy Rose, and how hope springs eternal?

Do you think about Amy Rose, and the pandora's box she has to claw through to find that hope?
