A Sonamy Cinderella Story Ch 5

A Sonamy Cinderella Story

A/N: Wow! I've neglected this fanfic since my birth month! Man, I'm so freaking lazy, so to make up for it. I'm going to TRY to make this a good, long chappie! Sonic, take it away!

Sonic: Right! TomboyishSonicLover doesn't own me, Amy and the others. She does however own the stepsisters Carrie and Sasha, their mom Vanessa and other cameo OCs.

Chapter 5: Connection

After class, Amy went to lunch and made it to her usual hangout spot with Tikal, Cream and their other two friends; a purple cat named Blaze and a white bat named Rouge. Rouge is the fashionista of the gang and always up to date in fashion, makeup and also dressmaking. Blaze is everyone's average girl next door with straight A's on her report but no one bullies her into doing their homework because she'll put up a fight if she has to.

Amy made it to her table and her friend's greeted her with a warm welcome.

"Hey Amy!" Blaze warmly greeted her. "How was your day so far?"

"Apart from the evil stepsisters torturing me in Science class. I survived..." Amy said neutrally as she ate her spaghetti.

"Cheer up Amy." Cream reassures her as she pats her back. "At least you can smile at this little dance we're having tonight."

"Oh yeah, the school's annual charity Masquerade Ball!" Blaze said as she snapped her fingers as well when realization hit her. "I almost forgot about it!"

"Yeah, have fun there." Amy said as she continued eating, but stopped when her friends stared at her. "What?"

"You're not going?" Tikal asked in surprise.

"Nope." Amy sighed in sadness. "Believe me guys, I'd love to go but I can't with Vanessa, the Wicked Witch of the West and her twin flying monkeys on my tail all the time."

All of them nodded in agreement with what Amy's point is, but that doesn't mean they'll quit convincing her.

"Don't worry Amy, we'll figure something out." Cream stated.

"Yeah!" Rouge nodded in agreement, then pretended to be strict and crossed her arms. "Besides, I have your dress ready and I worked too hard to see a Rouge original go to waste."

That made all five of them laugh, but little do they know that Sally, Carrie and Sasha saw their little group celebrating.

"What's your dork stepsister so jolly about?" Sally asked them as she gave Amy's group the evil eye.

"How should we know, Sal?" Carrie moaned as she rolled her eyes in annoyance. "We're not her babysitter you know."

"I know that bit." Sally stated angrily. "And seeing that pink rat happy makes me ill."

"Want us to find out what she's so happy bout?" Sasha asked her with an evil smirk.

"Gladly." Sally agreed with the same smirk.

After school was over, Amy went down to the supermarket since Vanessa always gives her a list of food to buy every once in awhile and today was no different. Amy spent about thirty minutes in the store and walked the rest of the way home with her skateboard in her bag since she doesn't want to risk getting hurt while boarding home. When Amy made it to her house, she began to put the groceries on the table and began stocking up food that'll last for a good three weeks. But little did she know two blue and pink eyes were snooping on her.

"So, like, how we going to figure out what Amy's so totally happy about?" Carrie whispered to her twin.

"Simple." Sasha told her. "Sometimes Amy talks while she works, so we might get some info if we're lucky."

The two sneaky hedgehogs listen up as they watch Amy prepare dinner.

"Maybe the girls were right." Amy said to herself, completely unaware of Carrie's pink and Sasha's dark blue eyes watching her. "I should go to the Masquerade Ball tonight, luckily, Vain-essa's giving me time off for once in her life."

Carrie gasped loudly but Sasha quickly covered her mouth and quickly pulled her away before Amy noticed someone was there.

"OMG!" Carrie said with shock in her eyes. "That pink rat is going to the Ball!? Sash, what do we do?!"

"Girl, take a chill pill!" Sasha said, rolling her eyes. "It's easy...All we have to do is go to mummy dearest, tell her what Amy said and she'll do the rest."

"Genius!" Carrie smiled devilishly and rubbed her hands together. "Especially when we tell her that Amy called her Vain-essa behind her back, boy is she gonna be grounded!"

With Vanessa, she was in her room wearing green beauty mask, cucumbers on her eyes and curlers in her hair while relaxing. But her relaxing was cut short when her two daughter's busted in.

"Mother!/Mummy!" the both said at the same time.

"Hello my sweet princesses." Vanessa said in a calm, relaxed tone.

"So mom, we were on our way to the mall to get manis and pedis with Sal tonight for the ball." Carrie began.

"Before we heard that Amy's had time off and we overheard her talking, FYI." Sasha added. Her mother was unamused by that, but not until...

"I THINK SHE'S PLANING TO GO, FYI! AND FYI AGAIN, SHE CALLED YOU VAIN-ESSA BEHIND YOUR BACK!" Sasha yelled and that made her mother bolt up and her cucumbers fell of her eyes either from the shock or the power of gravity.

"What?!" the older cyan hedgehog yelled in rage. "After I had the gull to give her a night off!? I need to find a good punishment for her..."

"How about you make her clean out the..."special" master room?" Carrie asked with an evil smirk. Vanessa and Sasha looked at her and smiled evilly.

"Perfect!" they both said at the same time.
---------
When Vanessa found Amy, Amy was finished cleaning the marble floors in the living room.

"Finally, my last chore of the day." Amy sighed in relief, but that only lasted when Vanessa interrupted her.

"Not so fast, Amelia." Vanessa warned her. "There's one more little thing I need you to do..."

"What?" Amy asked, already not liking where this conversation is going.

"Follow me...." Vanessa smirked as she led Amy upstairs to a room she's never seen before.

"I've never seen this room before..." Amy said confused and looked at Vanessa.

"That's because I hid it from you and the health inspector." Vanessa said and when she opened the door, Amy though she would be sick.

There was stale junk food everywhere, even on the ceiling, garbage and old clothes as far as the eye could see and the scent of dog poo and dead animals filled the air.

"What the heck is this mess?!" Amy said in shock as she gazed in the room.

"This, was my girls first bedroom." Vanessa explained. "But I moved them out so they can have yours."

Amy stared at her stepmom like she was insane. How can two girls, of all people can make this look like the city dump?!

"Now, I want to change this old mess into a guestroom by the time I get back from my own fiesta at 12 midnight sharp." Vanessa instructed.

"But Vanessa, you gave me the night off." Amy talked back but got silenced by Vanessa's stare.

"Don't you talk back to me, missy." Vanessa sternly warned her. "I'll have you clean the basement as well."

Amy kept her mouth shut and stared in the messy room.

"Now, if you hurry, you'll get it done in no time at all." Vanessa slyly said as she walked away. "Oh, and consider it punishment for calling me Vain-essa."

As soon as she said that and left, Amy looked back and her and thought how she knew about that. It wasn't so hard, considering the guilty parties were there laughing their heads off.

"Hope you have a good night, Amy." Carrie laughed at the pink hedgehog.

"Yeah, we're so unlucky." Sasha said sarcastically. "You get the fun job while we go to a boring ball and make a move on Sonic."

"Oh wait. We got all mixed up." Carrie joked as she and Sasha left Amy to pity on herself.

Amy looked back at the room and started crying. Either the stink or the harsh pang of misery finally hit the teenaged pink hedgehog.
------
After trying to clean and disinfect the room for the first 20 minutes, Amy felt that it was hopeless. At this rate, the ball will be over by the time she even finishes.

Amy still had tears in her eyes after what her step-family did to her. She was about to throw away another bag of trash when her phone ran. Amy took off one of her gloves to answer it.

"Hello?" Amy answered in the phone.

"Hey, Amy." Cream's voice came in from the receiver. "You getting ready?"

"Not anymore." Amy cried. "Vanessa broke her promise and is keeping me here in the second master room that makes the city dump look like Snow White's forest. There are species of bugs here still unknown to mankind in here! There's no way I can finish this mess in time!"

"I'm so sorry, Amy." Cream said sympathetically. "I wish there was something I could do..."

"Thanks Cream, but I better get back to work..." Amy sighed as she hung up her cell and began cleaning.

As soon as she hung up, Cream was thinking what can she do to help out Amy. After a moment of thinking, Cream suddenly perk up as she began speed dialing Tikal, Blaze and Rouge.

"I need all hands on deck for this daredevil plan." the cream coloured rabbit said as she rang them up.
