"Hmm, fries or chips?" I asked Silver.

"Definitely chips. Fries are just too...gross," he replied. I giggled at him.

"Okay, how bout this one? PS3 or Xbox 360?"

"Didn't you already ask me this one?" he whispered as he looked over my shoulder. I felt his cool breath on my neck. It made me smile. I tried not to shudder when he wrapped his arms around my stomach.

"Hmm, maybe I did...well, how bout this? Peaches or ice-cream?"

"This game is getting boring, haha. Let's do something else," he said.

"Okay, well, we could finish our geometry. We have that test tomorrow," I groaned. When it comes to tests, you can count me out. I guess he heard my tone and chuckled.

"How about we watch a movie?" he suggested.

I perked up and he was already in the kitchen. I loved Silver's house. It was awesome. Anyways, I walked into the living room and skimmed through the DVDs. I found this one about some dead girl who kills everyone who watches some sort of video, so I stuck it in the DVD player. Silver came out with the finished popcorn and sat next to me. I snuggled into him as he put his arm around me. The movie actually wasn't that scary, but I still avoided looking at my tv when I decided to go home around 1:00. Then, my cell rang.

"Holy crap! Oh, it's just my phone," I said as I picked it up and held it to my ear. "Hello?"

"Hello, Agent Blaze. This is Shadow," the phone replied.

"Shadow? Do you have any idea how late it is??" I hissed.

"Yeah, I do. Remember Mighty?" his voice sounded worried.

"Like yesterday, Shadow. What's up?" I replied, trying to stifle my yawn.

"Well, he showed up again. And this time, Amy's not in a cage. She's in the hospital," I heard the hate in the hedgehog's voice, "and she's banged up pretty bad. We suspect that he's after the D.I.M."

"Shadow, I'm so sorry! Is there anything I can do?" I said quickly, putting my shoes on and walking out the door to Silver's.

"We need the D.I.M. If you can bring that to me, then I can use it to track Mighty and," there was a pause. My ears were sharp, so I picked up something in the background.

"Is she bringing it, Shadow? I better get that or your little pink princess here will have her head all over the floor!" said the voice.

"Shadow, I'm on my way! I heard Mighty in the background and I'm going to help you and Amy. Sit tight!" I hung up.

"Silver!" I called as I walked into his house. He came down the stairs, rubbing his golden eyes and yawning.

"It's like, late. What's up?" he replied, not noticing me about to explode of anxiety.

"Mighty! He's back, and he's using Amy against Shadow. He wants this," I tossed the D.I.M to him, "and Shadow has no choice but to help his wife. Knowing Mighty, he's gonna take her away once he gets his hand on this." I heard Silver growl.

"What us this, exactly?" he said, his eyes squinted as he examined the piece of enhanced technology.

"It's the Device Indication Module. It has all of the data for G.U.N and much more. It also controls the beta-bots."

"Beta...?" Silver looked at me, confusion etched on his face.

"Beta-bots. They're not exactly complete yet. We have to rewire some of them, but these bots are tough! Put about five of 'em against Shadow, and he'll have a fair fight!" I replied, thinking about the power of those tin cans.

I looked over at the hedgehog, watching his mouth reply with a silent "wow".

"That tough?" he finally said.

"Yes, now we have to go! They're in trouble!" I grabbed Silver's arm and we ran out the door.
