Enjoy!

It had been 6 months since Shadow met Usagi, and had been living with her. He met all her friends, even discovered that she was a soldier of love and justice-Sailormoon! And to Shadow's surprise, he opened up just a little more.

The sky was a beautiful shade of purple, orange, and yellow. The sun had begun setting, but stars could already be seen in the sky. Shadow can be seen sitting on large rocks watching the sun set as hi new…friends…? Finished playing in the beach water. Makoto and Ami giggled as they dried most of the ocean's water from their body. "I guess this is goodbye, for today!" Ami spoke with a warm smile. Makoto nodded in agreement and wrapped her towel around her waist.

"C'mon Ami, I'll walk you home." The two waved and cast a gaze to Shadow, who was still starring at the sunset with his usual trade mark expression. Both girls gave a small giggle and smiled before walking away. Minako scooped up her albino guardian, Artemis, into her wet arms and gave a rather gleeful smile. "That means we should be leaving too!" The blonde said in a cheerful tone, the albino cat just gave a lazy 'meow'. "See ya' later!" She giggled while exiting the beach. This only left Rei, Usagi, and Shadow.

The hedgehog had been thinking a lot lately. Maybe he missed the ones he saved from the falling ARK; he couldn't possibly be homesick…

"Oh, Shadooow~!" A perky familiar voice sang, while hands were placed on his shoulders and pulling him backwards so he met the gaze of the one who called him. Of course, his eyes met a giggling Usagi. "I'm ready to go home now!"

The dark hedgehog was confused. What was up with her? He had gotten used to the blonde teen's bubbly personality, but this…this was a new breed of cheery.

However, Shadow simply nodded and proceeded to take Usagi home, along with Rei.

"Oh, I'm so physked that you're spending the night Rei!" Rei smiled and turned her attention to her hyper friend "Same here! It's been forever since I took time off from the shrine."

Their conversation carried on for some time now, Shadow was still in deep thought. "Are you excited too, Shadow? This'll be your first sleepover!" Usagi squealed in excitement.

"I wouldn't say excited…" Shadow replied in his usual dark tone, once he broke away from his thoughts. The two girls giggled. "Seems like it was yesterday…" Rei reminisced. She was the first to know about Shadow.

-Flashback-

"Tsukino, Usagi, you open this door right now!" Rei demanded from outside of Usagi's room door. "You've been acting so strange all month, fess up, what are you hiding?" Anyone could read this meatball head like a book, especially Rei, and all they've been through, she definitely knew she was hiding something. The way her friend would space out in the middle of a conversation, she'd hardly accept sweets, and she'd always return home SUPER early. Hell, she even showed up late when a Youma was spotted. Rei had just about enough of this.

"Well…?" She questioned in a, now, calmer tone. Usagi have a sigh, she had no choice, and she knew how stubborn Rei was. "Ok, I'll let you in." Shadow heard everything, they'd been arguing for at LEAST an hour. The crimson splashed hedgehog sat in the window sill, eyes closed, arms lightly folded. Though, he wasn't bothered by the fact that she tried keeping him a secret. But he did find this amusing, the blonde tried to keep him hidden, but now the 'secret' was about to be out, and it had only been a month.

Usagi finally began to unlock her door, before she could even turn the knob; Rei had already pushed the door open and let herself in. The girl's purple eyes had widened, she was surprised at what she saw.

"W-What is it?" She questioned while scanning the hedgehog's features, feeling a bit of uneasiness enter her body. Usagi simply smiled as she sat next to Shadow in the window sill, placing her hands on his shoulders. His eyes eased open, at first focusing on Usagi, then turning his crimson orbs to Rei.

The secret pyro senshi stared into his eyes, but could feel some sort of warmth from them, causing her uneasy feeling to vanish. "Shadow, this is Rei. Rei, this is Shadow the hedgehog!"

Well how's it sound so far?

Please R&R ^^
