Happily Ever After (Sequel to The Story of Sapphire)

Where am I?

Sapphires POV
A pain throb echoed about my head as I awoke. Rubbing my eyes as I yawned, and thats when I remembered. The memories hit me like a ton of bricks. I sat up in shock and looked around. My fur stands up on end as the sense of fear comes over me. Where am I? What is this place? How did I get here? All I remember was a bright flash of light when we all were fighting- Eggman. He must have done this. I get up slowly and let my eyes adjust to thier surroundings. I'm in a black empty city. The buildings are grey and falling apart while the sun is red in the sky. Its like a waste land for monsters! Worst part is I don't see anyone else with me, where is everyone? I hope they are okay, if they are even here. I might be just me...shaking these thoughts out of my head I lift myself up and dust off my dress. Maybe someone is in one of these buildings, hiding from...actully, I'm not going to finsih that thought. So I trudge on into the closest building and knock lightly on the door. What? If i'm going to do this I might as well be polite!
"H-hello?" I whisper opening the door a little, I hear no responce but I want to be careful. "I'm coming in now, okay?" I say before strolling into the house. Well, lets just say creepy was an understatement. I see a backpack laying on the counter. The zipper was half open so I could see a bottle of water and a half eaten meal inside. I take the backpack and shrug it onto my shoulders, this may be my only chance at getting food, plus this meant some other people were here. As I am looking around I feel something cold grab my ankle. I squel and tumble over in panic. It has a fox, but it was covered in blood and its legs had been cut off. It let out a evil laugh before open its eyes. Blackness, that was all that was there. I scream kick it with my free leg giving me enough time to pull away from its grip. I crawl backwards quickly not taking my eyes off this creature. My back forcefully hit the wall and the monster slowly started to drag its self towards me still laughing. I stand and grab the closest thing to me which was a chair before throwing it at my atacker. The impact made its head jolt backwards and I hear a sharp snap before it goes limp. I scarmble to my feet and rest my hand on my heart breathing out a sigh of relief. If there was anyone in here they would have called out by now. Thats when  hear hissing and spitting. I turn around to see there is now many of them outside walking towards the house. They must know I killed one of them! I run though of the house, I don't know where i'm going but one thing I know for sure is those things don't mean well. I hear them breaking the glass winodws and crawling in, my last chance of survival is an open window. I run over to it before peeking outside. Its a big drop but if I build up enough stamina I might make it to the next house...The snarling gets louder and I decide that its the only chance I have to survive. I climb onto the window, bend my knees and jump.

I immeditaly know i'm not going to make it. My finger tips brush against the glass before I feel myself falling. Thankfully the impact didn't kill me and I struggle to get to my feet but as soon as I put pressure onto my left foot I collapse again. A burning pain starts to errupt in my ankle and I hiss away tears that brim in my eyes. I pull myself up and limp away trying not to put pressure onto my ankle. I can already hear the monsters distent growling and grunting. In a panic I climb up the wall I stood in front of using my left leg as least as possible before going back into the window I had tried to reach before. Acting quickly, but not tht quickly due to my ankle, I shoot up and go to lock every window and door I can find and barricade them. By now the burning feeling is indescribely painful, I need rest. Was there anybody in this house? No, no, I would have seen them. I make my way over to the bedroom and close my eyes as I climb onto the large bed and slowly drift to sleep.

CRASH

That came from upstairs. I sit up suddenly. The attic, I forgot to check the attic! I slide off the bed and tip-toe my way towards the attic hatch with a new found knife in hand. Pulling it down a prepear myself for another one of those things. Noticing a pile of heavy rubbish in the darkness I sigh in relief. They're trapped, it can't get me. From the noises it was making I was pretty sure it was a monster. Maybe I should see what these things really are. I step closer to it ignoring the pain in my ankle and by now it had noticed me. It gurgled and coughed sounding in pain. I almost felt bad for it, but not quite. I raise the knife about to put it out of its misery until its arm that was not trapped under the rubbish reached out to me. It coughed once again.
"He-help..." Wait, those things can't talk.
"Pl-pl-please...hel-" More coughs interupt him. I drop the knife instently and run towards a widnow. I open the curtains and the light shines though revealing the figures face. It was a male hedgehog who had dark green fur and black sripes. His golden eyes, not deep black, are full of fear as he carries on to plead. On instinct I run to his side.
