EP3: Ash the Hedgehog

It's been days now since the accident on that mount. Rocket is now finally feel well now. He goes out of the hospital and May was waiting for him all the time (with her cat though). May slowly walks to Rocket and she hugs him.

"Hi, Rocket! I'm so glad that you're better right now. Are you feeling better right now?"

"O-of course. The doctor said that I'll be better in a few days. But I still gotta rest for a few weeks so I could use my powers again. Well, that's a little bit pain but-"

"Rocket!!"

Rocket's friend runs out to Rocket and he feels a little bit panic because of something.

"Rocket, there you are. I've been trying to tell you something really important. It's so shocking!"

"Hey, Ronald. How are you? What are you doing here?"

"The-the school, It's been destroyed because of that collapsed mount. Because of that, we just can't go to school. We can't study anywhere. Well, what are we going to do about our school work?"

"Well, I'm still sick for the week though. You know, maybe we should continue doing our school work when there's a new announcement from the principal. I can't do my powers really well though.

"Y-you're sick? Why are you suddenly sick?"

"How come you didn't know that much? We haven't met for days though. That accident was actually caused because of me. But people are saying that it was just an accident."

"Oh, I feel bad for you though. Does it hurt when you fell on that mount?"

"Of course. The doctor said three of my bones are fractured when I jumped onto that mount. I'm feeling a little bit fine so it's all great and stuff."

"Alright. Well, I gotta go now. See you soon, buddy." He then runs away

Rocket wouldn't know what to do since his School is now destroyed. He then feels a little bit happy since he didn't need to go to school.

"Well, you can use your powers right now. How about we just walk our way to our home?"

"That's a great idea, May. Since my home isn't really that far from the hospital, maybe I should just walk like a normal person."

"Uuumm... Do you always run to your destination? You gotta be one of those crazy people. Ooh, you reminded me of that blue hedgehog. Forgot his name though."

Rocket and May continues to walk their way to home. As both of them walks, a guy then sees them. He then jumps out from the mount and uses his powers to levitate and descent slowly. Rocket and May then realizes his appearance.

"What, who is that, Rocket?"

Name: Ash

Animal Species: Hedgehog

Power: Make things fly / make himself fly

Age: 16 / Modern

Type: Blue Fur, Red Stripes, Blue Eyes, Appearance similar to Sonic the Hedgehog

"My name is Ash the Hedgehog. You look a little bit tired, Rocket? Something the matter? Since you're a little bit sick, how about I finish you off without my powers."

Ash then tackles Rocket until he fell....

"Hey, what the heck, dude?!"

"I was sent by this creepy looking dude named Dr. Robotnik to kill you! And when I kill you, I will obtain the Chaos Emeralds!"

"The legendary Chaos Emeralds? If you achieve all of them, you get more powerful more than anyone." May the Cat explaining it to Rocket

"Yes. Once, a blue hedgehog achieve it and he became the strongest animal in the whole universe. Dr. Robotnik then steal it and he'll give it to me if I kill you."

"Oh yeah? Then I have two words for you."

"Oh, and what's that?"

"ROCKET PUNCH"

Rocket punches Ash in the face and then he flings away. Ash then dashes and tackles Rocket. He then dodges some of Ash's attack and he finally kicks him in the face. Ash dashes his way out of there and then Rocket chases him. May tries to call the police but she'd think it's a bad idea.

"Oh, you're chasing me? Look at how fast you are, Rocket. You know what, it's a little bit fun having this fight with you. But I'm going to spoil these Webnovel reader who's going to win, Me!"

"You can't win though. ROCKET SPEED!"

Rocket reaches Ash and he then tackles Ash. He fells to the ground and Rocket stopped running. Ash tried to run but Rocket then holds his hand.

"Don't even think that you can run again. So, your boss is really dumb to think you can defeat me. Maybe you can, maybe you can't. Alright, I'll let go of you but don't attack."

Rocket slowly let go of Ash's hand. But that just makes him more mad. He then punches Rocket's chin and he's down. Ash then laughs so loud.

"You really are so naive, Rocket. Even if you let go of me, that doesn't stop my desires of killing you and achieve the chaos emeralds. You're trying to be friendly to me but that won't work. You lose."

Rocket sees a rock falling off to Ash's head. Rocket then shouts Ash's name and he pushes Ash. He realized that the big rock was going to fall off to his head and Rocket saved him. Ash gets speechless after what Rocket did to him. Rocket then walks away from the scene and he goes to May.

"Hey, Rocket. You look hurt a little bit. Should we bring you back to the doctor?"

"Nah, it's alright. Let's just go home right now and forget about all of this. And by the way, I'm done with Ash and I hope he won't make a problem with me ever again."

"Oh that's cool. Let's go home then!"

Rocket and May finally goes their way out of the problem with Ash and they finally arrived at home. Rocket's mom hugs him instantly when she saw him. She started crying because she realizes how Rocket achieved lots of pain from that mount accident.

"I'm so worried for you, honey. What are you thinking of making yourself hurt like that. P-promise me that you'll never do any bizarre things like that, okay?"

"Alright, mom. I'll be cautious next time."

Both of them are still hugging while Ash outside sees both of them hugging through the window. Ash then smiles a little bit and he runs away.
