It's Ok To Cry

(WARNING: This one-shot may contain spoilers of the 1989’s film “Pet Sematary” by Stephen King)

Sonic hasn't really been in a happy mood lately. Why? Because he recently discovered that one of his favorite childhood horror movies, Pet Sematary, was getting a remake.

Growing up, Sonic has always loved Stephen King. He's read all the books and has seen nearly all the movies. His favorite books were IT and Pet Sematary, while his favorite movies were Cujo and also Pet Sematary.

When the movies started getting remakes, he didn't mind it as much. He's never seen the original Carrie, so he enjoyed the remake of the movie. The Mist tv show was pretty good too, and he absolutely loved the new adaptation of IT better than the original movie. However, there were just some things that didn't need to be redone and were perfect the way they were, this being Cujo and Pet Sematary. Those were literally the only two movies that he didn't want the movie industry to touch, so when he saw the trailer for the remake of Pet Sematary, Sonic was more than a little peeved off.

The blue hedgehog had even went out of his way to write an angry review on Facebook regarding the new trailer. Getting his thoughts out there helped a little, but the fire was still burning.

“Come on Faker, it's just a movie.” Shadow rolled his eyes at his rival's behavior, who slumped on his couch in his living room.

“It's not just a movie, Shadow, it's my childhood.” Sonic grumbled. “They're messing with my childhood.”

“Well what did you expect? Popular movies usually get remakes, Sonic.” Knuckles pointed out.

“But still, did it HAVE to be Pet Sematary?” Sonic whined.

“What's the deal with this Pet Sematary anyway?” Shadow frowned. “I mean, I've heard of it, but I've never seen it. Never even read the book.”

“It's only the most scary and heart-wrenching story Stephen King has ever made even HE wishes he never wrote it.” Sonic explained. “And the movie only pulls more onto your heartstrings, especially the scene with Gage.”

“Who's Gage?”

“A 1 year old toddler in the story.”

“Ok, I have an idea.” Amy suddenly spoke up. “Because Sonic is still feeling pretty salty about this…”

“Hey!” Sonic whined pitifully, crossing his arms and pouting. “I ain't salty.”

“You totally are.” Tails chuckled.

“No fair Tails, you're supposed to be on my side.”

“Anyways…” Amy frowned about being interrupted. “Because Sonic is still… upset, about this, and because Shadow has never seen it, how about we all just have a Stephen King marathon tonight to help get Sonic's mind off of this. Sonic, I know you have nearly all the movies.”

“I do… yeah, that sounds like a good idea, and the movies aren't too scary for Tails either.” Sonic nodded. “Let's do it. And, because it’s my favorite and Shadow has never seen it, we can start with Pet Sematary.”

“This should be interesting, I'll get the popcorn.” Rouge giggled.

“I'll get the room set up.” Tails offered.

“I'll get the movie.” Sonic naturally suggested.

“And I'll be sitting here wondering if this is even worth it.” Shadow grumbled as he sat on the couch with his arms crossed.
