Captive Chapter Five: Sorry about the wait, a sonic the hedgehog fanfic

Author's notes: Wheehah! Sorry chap 5 took so long, folx; between the vacation to Aruba that I got nearly NO writing done at, summer school, and a recent Neopets art competition win (Portschoolcup, BTW), I've been a biiiit busy.. But I got it done! :D

Walking along the streets of the near-silent Echidnopolis, Mighty began to wonder if he should simply start sleeping during the day. With all that had been happening as of late, sleep only now came out of pure exhaustion; usually in the afternoon hours. It had been four days since the Dark Legion had attacked the hospital; it did not assure him that his still-hospitilized friend did not improve in his recovery. On the contrary, Espio's psychological well being appeared to worsen.

Mighty sighed at internal thoughts. Espio had been moved to another hospital room in security, and had refused to leave that room since. Not surprisingly, at least according to several doctors, the chameleon teen had begun to eat more than usual; his weight was nearly back to the state it was before his kidnapping.

Passing by a small internet cafe on the way to the hospital for yet another four-in-the-morning visit, the teen paused. The cafe, unorigonally titled 'Windows', had a very large window for passerbys to view the interior. Peering through said paneglass window, Mighty blinked in surprise; sitting at a computer, playing one of the 'shoot the monsters' games that he never really enjoyed, was none other than Vector Crocodile. Wondering why the crocodile was awake at such an early hour, Mighty made his way inside.

Vector, for his part, had been completely oblivious to his friends' arrival. Tapping furiously at keys with one hand and moving the mouse with the other, he almost seemed to plead with the game as he played. "Come on, come on.. Move to the left, ya stupid little.. Ooh! Red icon!"

Unable to hide his amusement, Mighty tapped at the other teens' shoulder. "Vec?"

As if on cue, a 'Level Complete' logo appeared on the screen. Satisfied that conversation would no longer impede on his gameplay, Vector turned to face Mighty as a 'Continue?' countdown played on the screen. "Might-man! Didn't know ya liked places like this!"

Mighty shrugged lightly in reply. "Usually, I don't. Can't get half of these games, anyway." Despite his words, he did glance at a 'Dance Dance Rebellion REDUX' system. "However, that game I enjoy." With a small smile that could not be helped, he looked back to the taller teen. "Anyway, what are you doing up so late, er, early?"

A frown crossed Vector's face. "Couldn't sleep, man. You know, th' whole thing with Espy an'.." The crocodile, noticing that his words and mood had started to bring a frown to his friends' face, forced a smile. "Lucky that this place is open twentyfour-seven, ya know?"

An expression of thought came to Mightys' face. "Hey, Vec, I was on my way to visit Esp, anyway. Wanna come with?"

No words were needed after the query. Without so much as looking back at the game he had been vigorously playing only a few minutes prior, Vector left the internet cafe.

Security to Saint Angel Hospital had been stepped up since the Legion attack. Both Chaotix members had to go through a DNA matchup before being allowed in; however, with their level of technology, it had only taken several minutes. Security guards were stationed everywhere; both teens found it all rather disturbing.

Espio had been moved to the fourth floor, yet neither visiting teen had opted to use the elevator. Two heavilly armed guards stood by the door to the hospital room; as Mighty got the impression that no chances were being taken, he stared at the guards with wide eyes. Despite the tense air that the tight security gave to the situation, all had seemed peacefull.
