Sonic glanced at the door for the third time in the last ten minutes then pulled out an album. He started flipping through pictures of when he was with his siblings and a few of when it was all four of them. He jumped when there was a flash of light and suddenly Shadow was standing in front of him.

"Shadow!" He said quickly hiding the book, "What are you doing here?"

Instead of verbally responding Shadow pulled out a gun and forced it into Sonic's hands.

"The GUN commander wants me to teach you how to use a gun so you have something else to rely on."

Sonic felt the medallion hidden in his quills hum as if reminding him it was still there. He gave a small grin and made to hand Shadow back the gun, "Sorry Shads I really don't like using guns and I especially do NOT like them in my house."

"Too bad." Shadow said and grabbed Sonic by the wrist, "Because you're going to learn. Chaos Control!"

When Sonic was able to yank his arm away from Shadow they were already standing in an artillery range. Shadow steered him over to one of the targets and placed the gun in his hands again.

"Just shoot the target five times and you can go."

Sonic glared at him then shot the gun in the direction of the targets without looking. He went to hand it back.

"I said shoot the targets Faker." Shadow said, "Not shoot the gun."

Sonic smirked at him as he was able to get rid of the gun, "I DID shoot the targets. By the way lasers work a lot better."

There was a rush of wind and Shadow was left standing there with a gun in his hands. He looked at the target and his eyes widened.

Five bullet holes were in the target… more specifically the bull's eye.
