Fanfiction» Fanfics» To Make You Feel My Love
In a time not far off from our own, there lived a fox. Not just any fox, mind you.
This particular fox was white with blue hair of length not seen by most these days. This particular fox was equipped with jet boots to match her hair. This particular fox had 6-ft. scissors that she'd be more than willing to cut you deep with, if you got in her face. This particular fox was . . . well, for lack of a better word, INSANE.
This particular fox was known to all (appropriately enough) as Crazy Pocky.
She had many friends. Greliz, for instance. You know, the guy with the bag on his head and the trout? Yeah, that's him. Funny guy, that Greliz...though somehow his relatives seem to sneak into the picture every once in a while...
Anyways, back to the story at hand....
Despite the many friends she had and her ability just haul off and whoop tail, Crazy Pocky's life was not all Shadow plushies and Pocky. However, her friends helped. They were supportive in their ways, offering helpful advice, loving words, and the occasional hug. They knew what being a friend meant, more so than certain other people did. Little did CP know that her greatest surcease of pain would come in her the very next night.......
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
That night, as Crazy Pocky slept peacefully, a dark figure crept through the house, as quietly as possible. By and by, he found his way to Crazy Pocky's room. He lightly tiptoed his way to her bedside. When he reached it, he stood there for a while, admiring her, not wishing to disturb her peaceful slumber.
Finally, the figure gathered up the courage to tap the fox on the shoulder.
"Wake up," he said in his trademark soft voice.
Crazy Pocky woke up, slowly opening her eyes, at first, then quickly, as she became aware of the one standing before her.
"How did you.....?"
The shadow then put his finger to the fox's lips. "I have my ways," he said with a soft smile.
When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love
"I'm so glad to see you....", remarked the fox, still not believing that the one she had been enamored of for so long was standing right in front of her.
"Likewise.", remarked the dark figure nonschalantly.
"But, why are you here?", inquired Crazy Pocky.
"Why, to take you away, my love."
"Where to?"
"Wherever you desire to. Say the word and we'll be there."
At that remark, various thoughts ran the through the mind of the fox. So many places..., thought the fox. Where to?
Finally, without having any certainty towards any one place, she said, "Why don't we just wing it? I trust you."
The dark figure smiled at her. "Don't worry. I won't let you down. Wherever we go, I'll do all I can to make you happy."
When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love
Crazy Pocky couldn't stop herself from blushing at this. "Thank you . . . you've brought me such joy . . . I don't know how I could ever repay you . . . you came through for me when I needed you most . . ." "The pleasure is all mine. Your being alive is all the repayment I'll ever need. You've been there for me, too, after all . . .more than you realize."
I know you haven't made your mind up yet
And I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
There's no doubt in my mind where you belong
The dark figure continued, "Well, what do you say we get going? We have a long night ahead of us."
The long-haired fox nodded gently, as the dark figure pulled from his pocket a shiny green gem...a jewel that both Crazy Pocky and the figure knew of all too well. At his command, the fox and the dark figure were whisked away . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
When they came to a stop, Crazy Pocky was startled a bit. She was not as used to hyper travel as her confidant was.
"You ok?", inquired the dark figure.
"Yeah...just a little woozy."
The blue-haired fox shook her head to find her bearings again, and when she did, she found herself at a place of great joy and laughter. A place any Sega fan would dream of visiting.
"Joyopolis? I've always wanted to come here . . . how did you know?"
"As I said, I have my ways," said the mysterious figure as he winked playfully at the fox, then proceeded to hug her. For a long time, they ran around together, just having a plain old good time, playing games and such.
A few hours later, they were walking away from the park, smiles spreading from ear to ear across their faces.
The fox looked lovingly at her dark companion. "You've made this one of the best nights I've ever had . . . thank you."
"Don't thank me yet. We're not done yet, my love," replied the mysterious figure. "I promised I'd do everything I could to make you happy . . . and there's one other thing we must do."
I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love
With that, the two were off again.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
This time, Crazy Pocky landed with more assurance and with less . . . well, wooziness.
Upon landing, the dark figure covered Crazy Pocky's eyes with his hand.
"What are you doing?", inquired Crazy Pocky.
"Surprise for ya. Trust me, you'll love it." He said, as he guided her through the door.
He released his hands from her eyes.
"SURPRISE!!"
Crazy Pocky became startled by this outburst. She soon realized exactly what was happening. Her dark confidant had managed to get together all of her many TSF friends together for a party. And (literally) they were ALL THERE. Far too many to name.
How does he do it?, wondered Crazy Pocky.
All night there was dancing, food, games, food . . . oh yes, there was much food to be had.
For the last dance of the night, a soft romantic song began to play, courtesy of DJ Professor Tei. He was soon pulled off to the dance floor by a certain someone by the name of Lady Altena.
Likewise, all the couples began to dance, as the dark figure approached Crazy Pocky, extended his hand to her, and said, "May I have this dance?" Without hesitation, the fox grasped the hand and began to dance with him.
"I love you..."
"I love you too..."
And the song continued to play...
The storms are raging on a rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothin' like me yet
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Gradually, the dark figure and Crazy Pocky bid farewell to all their friends. The fox soon grew very tired, so the dark figure gently carried her to bed and tucked her in.
"Thank you for everything," she said softly.
"You're welcome."
"Will I ever see you again?"
"Very soon, my dear...very soon.", murmured the figure as he kissed the fox's forehead.
"Now get some sleep...it's been a long day..."
The dark figure stayed with her until she drifted off to sleep, even singing a sort of lullabye . . . ironically, the last verse of the last song of that night....
There ain't nothin' that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the Earth for you
Make you happy, make your dreams come true
To make you feel my love
With that, the fox drifted to sleep....
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
*bzzt* *bzzt* *bzzt*
The fox jerked awake.......to find that she had been dreaming...........
She was distraught . . . but only for a moment, for she knew just what to do.
She smiled to herself as she hit the snooze button on her alarm clock, and laid her head back on the pillow..........
"Come back to me.....................Shadow."
