This idea spawns from the fact that in Sonic games, there's been a whole lot of amusement parks with evil inside them- Twinkle Park, for example. So I always wondered, will the Sonic crew be able to handle an amusement park that ISN'T out to kill them? This story takes place after the events of Sonic Colors, because in that game, Sonic and Tails actually mention that they should go to a real amusement park to celebrate their pwning of Eggman. Anyway, enjoy!

Chapter 1- Arriving for the Big One- 7:10 AM

"Shadow! I want to go on that big ride, so that's what we're doing." Rouge told Shadow early that morning.

"Ughhhh… I never consented to do this in the first place…" he responded, still half-asleep.

"Yes you did."

That morning at one o'clock…

Shadow's phone rang.

"Uhhh… hi…" he greeted, exhausted, "I'm… sleeping…"

"Hi Shadow! Sonic's holding this huge party at the local amusement park where basically he pays for everything. Do you want to come?"

"Yea… sure…" Shadow said groggily.

"Okay! See you at seven o'clock!" Rouge said happily.

"Okay… mfphphphphph…"

Shadow dropped the phone and went back to sleep.

"No I didn't!"

"You did. I asked you REALLY early in the morning where you'd be most open to saying yes!"

"YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME!"

"A yes is a yes, Shadow. A no is also a yes unless I say it. Now, let's go on that ride!"

"I don't like the big rides…"

"Oh come on! You're went on the rollercoaster of angst and lived to tell the tale!"

"I also went on the roller coaster of Eggman and nearly got sucked into space."

Rouge stared at Shadow. "If you knew that coaster was dangerous, why ride it?"

"I did it for M-m-m-m-"

"Oh, you did it for HER! Well, why not try again on this one? It's not engineered to kill you, after all."

"No."

"NO MEANS YES!" Rouge sang, and dragged Shadow towards the almost nonexistent line.

"This one is called the 'Death Race of Doom'! I don't feel good about this…"

"Aw c'mon, Shadow! If you were truly a man, you could handle this!"

"Hey! Don't get my manliness involved in this!"

An operator made an announcement, "Hello, and welcome to the race of your life- the Death Race of Doom! Even though this design was masterminded by an evil genius-"

Evil genius! Shadow thought.

"-we still care about your safety. So please put on your harness and lap belt, and don't put ANY part of your body outside the ride. Because that would be really stupid, and stupid people like to sue us. You may want to leave if you are pregnant, have a serious medical condition, or have a fear of heights. If you wish to leave, please raise your hand and the operator will help you out."

Shadow raised his hand. Rouge slapped it down.

"Okay, then. May you be victorious!"

The ride slowly lunged up a giant hill. Shadow closed his eyes, practically cutting the circulation off of Rouge's arm. When she made a remark about how vulnerable it made him look, he resorted to hugging the harness for dear life. The ride sat at the top for a bit, letting all of its riders look at what they were about to fall down to. Shadow could feel his heart stop beating after the one second he opened his eyes, and the stomach-turning, twisting drop did nothing to help.

The blackened world slowly changed to green. The loop-de-loops spun him around more than he was used to, and it never stopped, even after he screamed. It brought him back to the tragedy at the Ark. Nobody can hear you scream, Shadow. N… O… B… O… D… Y…

Then the ride did the unthinkable. It slowed down; leaving Shadow to believe it was over. He began to inhale when yet another spiraling drop occurred. Not just that, but he saw something flash too.

"ROUGE! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!" he cried.

She yawned. "This ride is kinda boring, actually. I doubt the ride photo will be interesting either."

"THIS IS HORRIBLE!"

Suddenly, the ride jerked to a stop. It slowly rode towards the exit gate.

"It wasn't so bad, wasn't it?" Rouge asked, winking.

Shadow's world was spinning, but he could definitely identify the green bile that was spewing from his mouth.

"Okay, that- that's just gross…" Rouge commented, running off to get some bags.
