What's The Story, Morning Glory?

Me: Welcome to Chapter 6. If you're still reading, I congratulate you. Now things get Backstabbing!

Tails: Like they weren't before. You've had me rape Amy and Cream, and Robotnik's face-fucked me... What the hell happens next?

Me: Well, your first mission - raping Cream - was kind of dull.

Tails&Cream: DULL?!

Me: And I didn't go into detail because, well basically I've done rape twice, and it's not really important to the plot here. Well, not yet. But now lets have you actually doing something that isn't particuarly sex orientated.

Tails: Well that's a change. Who are you going to have me kill?

Me: Take a guess.

Chapter 6: Mission Backstabber

Cream is lying quietly in one corner, sobbing pitifully. Meanwhile, I pull on my new uniform. I feel sick. I mean, actually, physically sick. This is... wrong. I hated Amy. She did something wrong. She lied about me. But Cream... I liked her. Thought she was cute, in a 'she's fourteen, wait a couple of years' kind of way.

I hate myself. And now Robotnik knows my weakness, he's going to use her to exploit me. And hurt her more.

I know I have to get her out of here. Somehow.

I know I can't.

My door swings open. Robots are standing there.

"Let me guess," I say, "Robotnik."

"Robotnik wants to see you."

I follow the robot, locking my door behind me. Locking Cream in.

Robotnik is smirking on his throne, watching a videotape of my horrific at of rape. He laughs, and looks up.

"It's good to see that you're finally obedient," he smirks, "Now, I have your second mission already prepared. I order you to kill Sonic, Amy and Knuckles."

I gape, "I can't, they... they were my friends."

"They were your friends," agrees Robotnik, "They will trust you and let you into their homes. And then you will kill them and bring their bodies back to me."

"But..."

"They can't be very good friends if they couldn't get you out of here," Robotnik sneers, "They didn't even look for you. It's not like I'm asking you to kill Nack. Besides, if you don't..."

He brings up the image of me fucking Cream on an overhead screen, "You won't be a hero for much longer."

I groan. It was me raping Amy that got me into this shit in the first place. I'm not sure if I can take this any longer, "Fine," I snarl, "Tell the world. I don't care any more. But after that, you won't have anything left to blackmail me with, and you'll just have to fuck me to death or something!"

"Or I could fuck the girl to death," Robotnik suggests, "Or you could prevent it all, and KILL THE FUCKING HEDGEHOG!!!"

I shudder. I knew that threat was coming, "I... I can't kill Sonic. But I'll bring him to you, that's the same thing? And you have to let Cream go. Sonic's your number one thorn. If I kill him for you, it's only a matter of time before you run the joint. But if I do, Cream goes free. And she isn't hurt. At all. Please. I'll kill Sonic if you only let her go."

He considers.

"I'll even digitally record it, so you can see it over and over again," I plead, "Please, just let Cream go! She's got nothing to do with this!"

He glares at me, and sees the truth of my words in my big, honest eyes.

"Very well. You have three days to return with the hedgehog. Or his corpse. If you fail, or if you're late, I will see to it that the girl endures the most horrible of tortures I can think of. And you remain in my address book and this videotape and all its copies remain in my possession. When you have returned with the hedgehog, you get paid and Cream goes free. Now, go!"

"Okay," I say miserably, turning away.

But a big grin covers my face. Lying has become remarkably easy since I became an evil-minded bastard.

~~~

I look around at the shabby apartment. Nack is the only person I can talk to at least semi-honestly about this, but I can't stay here long either.

"So if I don't kill my best friend, Cream gets... tortured," I say.

"Ex-best friend," says Nack, eating a pawful of nachos. He shakes his head, "Now I know this isn't going to help, but what I'd do is kill Sonic and hope for the best. What kind of torture?"

"Rape. Again," I say.

Nic is doing her pregnancy excercises in the background. She looks over at us, "Raped - again?" she says, "Did I really hear you say that, Miles?"

"Uh... yes..."

"You mean she's been raped before?" Nack is growling, "What mother-fucker..." he looks at me. My expression is paper-thin, "Oh, shit. You... you raped a fifteen year old girl?"

"Fourteen, actually," I say, "Are you going to kill me?" I ask him.

"You hate yourself for it?"

"Hate myself? I wish I had the guts to shoot myself in the stomach and die slowly from internal bleeding!"

Nack shakes his head, "Then you gotta live with what you did, and that's worse than death. Listen, I'll try to help you pull off getting Cream out without getting Sonic killed. Cus we're friends now. But somebody's gonna get shot at some point. This thing's too complicated to be easy."

"Yeah, I know," I say, "Can only hope it's gonna be me."

I hear Nack mutter something.

"What's that?" I ask.

"Nothing," he grins, "Hey, me saving the innocent! Makes a change, huh?"

"I'm coming too," says Nic suddenly, standing up with some difficulty.

"Nic, you're eight and a half months pregnant!" Nack shouts, "You could drop the sprog at any moment! There is no way you are coming, it was bad enough that you broke me out!"

"Oh, alright," says Nic.

"No, that was too easy," says Nack, "You are not coming! And to make sure, we're driving on a motorbike!" He turns to me, "She's not coming!"

"Right," I say.

"She isn't!" Nack repeats.

I'm dressed up in torn-up, shabby clothes, a battered suitcase in one hand. I'm supposed to look like I've been living rough for about a month. Me and Nack decided the best story was that I'd run away wanting to be a hero like Sonic, and it all got too much without him to help me.

Just a little ego booster to help the trust along.

The plan is thus - I get into Sonic's house by knocking on the door, we talk a while and get eased in, and then I give a signal to Nack and Nic - that girl really wanted her way this time. The signal is flicking the light switch off and on three times rapidly. They come in and me and Nack take down Sonic with a pincer movement while Nic stands guard with a gun.

That way, there's three of us taking him to Robotnik, and three of us - four of us if Sonic wakes up in time and we manage to explain everything to him - will be able to bust Cream out more easily than just me on my own.

"Good luck, Miles," Nack whispers, shaking my hand.

I turn on the buttonhole camera and walk up to Sonic's door. This will be the first time we've seen each other in a month and a half, and I'm here to vicously attack him. I take a deep breath and ring the bell.

The door swings open, and Sonic's standing there, staring at me. Then he rushes forward and hugs me.

"Miles... Tails... little buddy... Oh God, I've missed you so much."

I burst into tears and hug him back, "I've missed you too, Sonic. I've been so stupid..."

~~~

Tails: What was that? You just gave away the plot of Chapter 8 in three paragraphs!

Me: Well, not really. You've got to know what the plan is before you know just how much it's fucked up.
