To Protect The Past

To Protect the Past
Chapter 3:
Blaze’s POV
The flames consume my very soul, in this world of sorrow

--------------------


This future I live in


Sitting on top of one of the shorter broken flats of the city she looked out at the city, taking a breather after her run through the city since sunrise. Her left hand was clenched in her lap where a patched leather bag was resting.


Is nothing more than a broken wasteland


Ears twitching with a sudden noise close to her she slightly turned her head to see a fire apparition creeping up on her position. Her closed off expression did not change as she slowly stood as regal as ever.


I do not come from this dimension


Turning to face the apparition she slides the bag off her lap and places it in the spot she sat before. Lifting her other hand she curled the gloved fingers, fire slowly coating her hand as she waited for the apparition to attack.


But I cannot leave


It snarled at her the makeup of its body going a darker red with the sight of a threat. Nose twitching she slightly turned her head and sighted another creeping up behind her.


have someone I must protect

Lifting her other hand she let the fire of her soul coat the other glove and hand, and she slowly slid into a fighting stance her eyes hard as she waited. The one in front of her stood still for a long second, then with a lowering of its head opened its jaw and set out a stream of fire at her.


A teenager who should not have to fight


Reacting instantly she leaped over the top of the apparition her gaze fixated fully on it, then fuelling her attack used her strength and flames to kick the apparition with a spinning kick that set it hurtling off the thin flooring to the lava below the tilted building.


But does so to protect what’s left of his home


Landing she immediately attacked with another kick to the second apparition that tried to sneak up upon her when her back was turned. With a roaring cry that sounded more like a yelp it went flying off after its fellow down to the lava.


It hurts my soul


Breathing out in a slight huff at being delayed she moved over to the bag and picked it up, making sure it was still closed to preserve the contents inside as long as possible. Glancing up again she looked behind her and saw more of the apparitions appear, cursing to herself under her breath, she raced towards the end of the strip of flooring and leaped off both her legs and arms spread wide.


To see him cry


Getting down so far she swung her body foreword, going into a flip and righting her body with her feet faced downwards. Looking downwards she saw where she was going to land, gaining speed she landed with a thump her bent legs stopping much of the strain from running through her body.


When things become too much for him


Falling foreword she put a hand out and kept her balance while shaking the rest of the strain of the fall from her slightly puffed up fur. Straightening up and making sure she still had a grip on the bag, she walked foreword while looking around to calculate where she was.


And he breaks in turn


Once she recognised the general area she set off at a run anxious not for herself but her friend, as when he was alone began to doubt himself and his abilities. Looking upwards as she leaped from floor to floor she snarled in frustration seeing the sunlight slowly disappearing in the sky.


My heart is sorrowful


Pushing herself she soon got to where they had set up a temporary home for the moment or the best place that had the most cover. Walking over below the hole in the wall, she leaped up crouching at the entrance her ears perked encase of an attack.


For the suffering he goes through


After 5 minutes or so of waiting she relaxed minutely, looking around with her night sight as the night fell more and more over the city she saw the huddled lump in the corner. Furrowing her brow in alarm she moved over silently, stopping by it she tilted her head as she looked over the slightly bloody figure.


I’ll stay by his side


Then she recognised who it was laying there, with widened eyes she slid to her knees and reached foreword with her hands, one gripping his shoulder and the other sliding under his chin lifting his face up to her gaze.


he is my brother in mind


“Silver…” Her voice was a quiet whisper of sorrow as she saw his face as his eyes opened, the dull golden orbs brightening when they saw her. His face was tearstained, the normal silver fur dull in pain and exhaustion. A small smile lit his lips as he watched her back studying her with the same intensity.


He is younger than he looks


“Blaze…” she watched as he leaned back against the wall and stretched his legs out, copying his movements, she slide beside him on the wall and leaned against it her tired muscles enjoying the rest. Gripping the bag she passed it over to his lap to his surprise.


In mentality not age


“Blaze? What?” His voice was confused but also curious as he took the bag from her hand and turned it until the tied side came into view. Smiling a slight smile not usually seen she looked away into the darkness, keeping vigil over the two of them


But that is disappearing


“It is all I could scrounge up Silver, though there is something I think you’ll enjoy…” She could feel the curiosity of the hedgehog clearly as he began to fiddle with the pouch. Turning her head back she watched him finally open it and look inside his night sight as powerful as hers after living in this city for so long.


As the flames consume all


“Is this…?!” The shock was plain in his voice as well as the childish wonder, giving a ‘humm hum’ sound as she again looked out into the darkness.


I follow him without question


“Wow. So cool…” Her ears flickered back the smile becoming more pronounced on her face as she heard him fully enjoy the treat she had been able to find for him. It was rare now that she was able to make him smile or even laugh anymore, the monster had destroyed so much that it was getting to the point where everything was just a struggle to even find anymore.


Into the flames we fight


It had happened to herself at a very young age where she lost all traces of her innocence and now it was slowly stripping away Silver’s innocent side and his enjoyment of the most simple of items. Sighing silently she watched out into the darkness, something was putting her fur on end, making her edgy and she did not like it.


To fight for our future


So into her thoughts she jumped a little when Silver rested his head on her chest while curling up for warmth at her side. Looking down at the silver head she then reached up with a hand and ran it down through his quill’s, starting to shake slightly Silver began to cry silent tears again as she watched over him holding him to her heart until he finally fell asleep sorrow in his heart.


And to journey to the past

End Chapter 3


Chocolate, something I think everyone should have, basically in the future I think that anyone surviving would have to scrounge up whatever food they could so when searching, Blaze could find some chocolate in an intact cold storage and brought it to Silver to cheer him up.
