Hex the Cobra decides to have a challenge against her friendly rival, Silver the Hedgehog. Silver did not expect this to happen because he always likes to challenge but now it was reversed.

"You want to challenge me, snake girl? You can't be serious" Silver had his hands on his waist.

"Well I sure do. Hedgehogs can fight snakes sometimes" Hex flicks her tongue at him.

"Uh-huh. And what kind of a challenge is it this time?" Silver smirked.

"An instinct fight, you'll be using your cat instincts and I use my snake instincts, which I have right now" Hex said, flicking her tongue again. Silver grins and his normal eyes become cat pupils.

"Good thing I got more control as a feline-hog" Silver said.

"Whatever. It's like you're Catwoman from the DC Marvel comics" Hex rolled her eyes.

"Maybe, but the 2004 movie has nothing to do with her" Silver said and got on all four. Hex got on her knees to mimic the movements of a king cobra.

"*ROOOOAAAAAR* Silver yowls like a cat.

"*HISSSSSSS*" Hex hissed out loud, attacking Silver.

"Whoa!" Silver jumped in the air and lands perfectly with his righting-reflex, "You missed, snake girl. Meow" he purred.

"Oh, yeah?!" Hex thrust herself into the air and held out her hands to do a bite like attack on him.

"MEOW!" Silver screamed.

"Hehehe, good kitty!" Hex taunts him.

"GGGRRRRRR!" Silver's back fur stood up when he's mad.

"Do you think you can seduce girls with your instincts? I'll say no" Hex smirked.

"Come and get me before you run out of nine lives" Hex taunts him.

"MEEOOOOOWWW!" Silver pounced on her, pinning her down on the floor.

"Bad kitty cat!" Hex constricts her tail around his waist.

"I might get hungry on snake meat!" Silver growled and bites her hood.

"AAARRGH!" Hex screamed and got off Silver.

They kept fighting with their instincts for 20 minutes but neither of them win or lost.

"Okay, I think we'll call this a tie. If we keep this up it's gonna be one hell of a fight" Silver said.

"You're right. I guess we'll challenge each other by what cats and snakes really do" Hex said.

"Hmm….." Silver comes up with a task.

Soon, Silver and Hex are challenged to eat their favorite meals the fastest without getting full.

Hex had dead mice while Silver had some fish.

"Ready, set...go!" Hex said and picks up the dead mouse and swallowed it. Silver picked up his fish and began to eat it rapidly, leaving only the bones on the dish and Hex keeps swallowing dead mice.

"*BUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRPPP*" Silver belched out loud and that he finished eating the whole fish.

"EWWWW! That did it!" Hex waves her hand in disgust; Silver grins and ate two fishes. They kept eating until Silver coughed.

"I swallowed a bone!" Silver coughed. Hex was now swallowing two mice but it was difficult to her to swallow them. She opens more wide and swallowed the first one.

Silver puked and the bone was out of his throat.

"Better Silver, keep eating!" Hex said and continues. Silver continued as well and ate the fishes again.

Later, Hex couldn't eat up the last mouse and neither could Silver.

"I feel awful!" Silver groaned.

"I can't eat another bite" Hex groaned.

"What's next snake girl?" Silver asked her. Hex got up with a tired look.

"Let's try out our senses. Cats have night vision don't they?" Hex said, Silver nods and got up.

"But how are we gonna do that when it's still day time?" Silver asked, crossing his arms.

"We'll have a break now and do it later in the garage" Hex explained. Silver understood and walks up to the bench to rest and so did Hex.

Silver yawns and stretches out as Hex sat next to him. She fell asleep and Silver got an evil idea. He took out a flute and plays it, making Hex get up in a sleep-trance and she started to dance awkwardly. Silver snickered and filmed this, still blowing the flute.

"Mmmmmmm…. yeeeeah, Espio" Hex thought she was dancing with Espio in her dream. Silver then stops playing the flute and Hex collapsed, waking her up.

Silver quickly threw the flute aside and licks his arm like a good kitty.

"Uhhh! What happened?" Hex woke up, confused. Silver acting innocent and pretends that he didn't see anything.

"You sleepwalked?" Silver asked. Hex shrugs and got up. She didn't know she was filmed during her sleep.

Later they had their darkness challenge.

"Ready Hex?" Silver asked her.

"Bet I am, Silver" Hex said, turning off the lights. They circled around the room and Silver's cat instincts made him have night vision.

"Meow" Silver smirked, taunting the female cobra.

Hex grins and attacks him. But he jumped at the corners side to side with great speed, landing on his palms. He then kicks Hex in the back.

"Ow! Bad kitty!"

"Too bad, snake girl" Silver chuckled.

"Grrrr!" Hex growled and tries to kick him but he flips up in the air and lands on his feet.

"Meow" Silver taunts again.

Hex hissed and threw Silver like a ragdoll and slams him against the floor. She then crawls up to him and flickers her tongue. Silver saw in his vision that she came closer and he kicks at her.

"MEOW!"

"Ugh!"

"Come on snake girl. Give me your best shot" Silver said.

"Very well" Hex said and slithers around him and elbows him in the gut and did a left hook punch, her vision sees Silver's body heat and he was very warmed up since the sweat was on her hand. She ignored it and smacks him with her tail.

Her tail hits his nose and he felt blood coming from it.

"Impressive, Hex. But I'm just getting warmed up" he picked her up and wrestled her down to the floor.

"Get off me, hedgehog!" Hex struggled but Silver was too strong.

"Give up?" Silver purred.

"Yes, for this time" Hex frowns and Silver got off her. He turned on the lights but Hex was still not done yet with the challenge.

"Hmm…..let's see what we didn't try with our instincts" Hex said, scratching her chin to think.

"Resistance?" Silver said.

"That could work" Hex smirked.

The resistance challenge was to resist from catching their prey, the dead mouse. Hex stays strong to hold her forked tongue from flicking out. Silver also stays strong by licking his arm and to ignore the dead mouse.

"So tasty...but no!" Silver so wanted to eat it, but he snaps out of it and looks away. Hex felt her tongue wanting to flick out but she stayed strong from her resistance.

Silver's left eye twitched lightly, growling lowly from letting his cat instincts take over and eat the dead mouse. But he again stayed strong to not fall for it.

"Must stay strong" Silver shaking a bit, but it was just too much.

"AAARRGGHHH!" he rushed towards the dead mouse and tears it up with his claws, making it bloody all over the floor.

Hex heard this and saw him slurp up the mouse and she smirks that she won this time.

"Nice try, Silver. Better luck next time" Hex said.

"I couldn't resist" Silver face-palms.

"Oh, really?" Hex chuckled and held out a laser light, turning it on as the red dot appears on the floor.

"No, no, no!" Silver chases the dot crazily and Hex laughed very hard at this.

"HAHAHAHAHA! You shouldn't accepted Snow's offer to cat instincts" Hex laughed.

"I like these cat instincts! MEOOOWWW!" Silver chased the red dot around the room like crazy.
"Come on, future boy. Try to fight your instincts" Hex chuckled.

"Grrrr! I'm trying! Meow!" Silver tries to fight his cat instincts as hard as he can.

She then points the dot at the wall, making Silver hit the wall hard with his face.

"OW! That hurt, Hex!" Silver groaned and got up.

Hex chuckled and grins, "Oh, really? Now try mine" she said.

Silver then picks up the flute and Hex's eyes widens, "Let's see if you can resist this" he smirks and played his punji or known as the flute from India.

Hex hears the flute playing and she tries to stay strong from going into a trance.

"Must...resist!" Hex struggled as the punji's music got stronger. Silver saw her hands twitch and she began to dance like a belly dancer.

"Noooo! I feel so humiliated!" Hex said annoyed and danced.

"Stop playing, Silver!" Hex begged and starts to get tired.

Silver saw this and stops playing, "Okay, Hex. I'll stop" he threw the flute aside.

"Finally!" Hex said and that she's able to control her body now.

"Is the Punji flute your weakness?" Silver asked.

"Yes, you already know that. I remember when Aarib used it once to lure me" Hex said with a glare.

"Okay, seems we both have weaknesses we can't withstand" Silver said.

"Uh-huh. And what's your weakness as your normal self, future boy?" Hex asked, crossing her arms.

"I really hate mimes. They are so creepy and scary" Silver shudders at mentioning them.

"Really? Good, because I know now. My fear is mummies you know" Hex said.

"And why are you exactly afraid of mummies?" Silver asked.

"Because they look creepy without bandages, they have dry skin and those who are alive sounds very scary. Ohhhh I can feel my fear" Hex said as she quivered. Silver nods and sat on the couch.

"Well, at least I wonder what's next, Silver" Hex said.

"We can meditate, that's good after all training" Silver suggested.

They both sat down on the floor and meditate in Buddha style.

Silver had his eyes closed and so did Hex. Silver levitates in the air while Hex balanced on her tail.

But after an hour, her tail got tired and she opens her eyes. But it was too late, she fell on Silver.

"WHOAA!" Hex knocked him over by the fall.

"Ugh!" Silver lost his concentration and fell on his back.

"Oops, sorry Silver" Hex said and helps him up.

"Next time don't balance on your tail please" Silver said, annoyed.

"Sorry" Hex rolled her eyes.

A while later, they were finished meditating and Silver checked his time on his iPhone.

"Well, I got to get back home, Hex. Nice time to practice today" Silver said.

"Yup, we should do this more often" Hex said. Silver waved good bye and walked his way back home.

The End.
