Blood Moon

Chapter One

In was a warm late summer evening, the remaining sunset caused a warm glow over Mobius giving the last heat of the summer before the coolness of Autumn would set in, the whole sky was lit up with warm golden and pink colours, and in a large mansion in Mobotropolis, a beautiful white bat was enjoying the remaining sunset sitting on her swing-seat.

As she watched the sunset, she felt someone come up behind her and put his hands on her shoulders, then move up to her collarbones. Rouge turned and looked up to see her lover Shadow smiling down at her. "Hi" he said "hi" said Rouge smiling seductively at him.

Shadow smirked and leaned forward to kiss her, he kissed her lips lightly, then went around the seat to sit next to her, "it's beautiful isn't it" said Rouge, she rested her head on Shadow's shoulder. "Not as beautiful as you" whispered Shadow. He put his arms around her and held her close.

"I asked Omega to make dinner" said Shadow "cool" said Rouge with a smile; she nuzzled Shadow, "I asked him to make pasta and to set the table nicely for us" Rouge smiled and snuggled closer to Shadow "you know Shad" she said "I keep telling myself that it was a good idea for Omega to team up with us when I first found you in that capsule, he's been a real help to us"

Shadow nodded, he had to agree with her on that, he shivered a little when he remembered being sealed in the capsule, "are you alright love?" asked Rouge noticing him shiver. Shadow nodded blushing "I was just remembering when I was sealed in that capsule" he said "I keep telling myself that if you hadn't released me, I wouldn't be here with you"

Rouge smiled, "I'm glad I did too" she began to chuckle when she remembered how she used to have a crush on a certain red echidna, "when I released you I realised that you were the man for me" she blushed "and to think I ever had a crush on that stupid gullible echidna"

They looked back at the sunset until it disappeared behind the clouds, and only a few lines of pink remained. Rouge shivered, Shadow noticed and held her closer so he could give her his body heat. "let's go back inside" he suggested. Rouge nodded, she stood up and they walked back into the house together.

When they got inside Omega was setting the table in the dining room, "GOOD EVENING ROUGE THE BAT" he said in his robotic voice. "I WILL HAVE DINNER READY SHORTLY" "thank you Omega" said Rouge. She walked into the living room with Shadow, as she entered she picked up the remote and turned on the television, "I wonder what's going on in the world" she said.

"Hi I'm Sara on Central Mobotropolis News, a dog walking home from work today made a gruesome discovery when he came across a disembowelled corpse at the park, he alerted the police who have taken the body in for a post mortem investigation" Rouge looked across to Shadow in shock.

Shadow shrugged and looked back at the television, "some mobians have been claiming to have seen some kind of monster that has been killing locals in the area, although investigation is taking place and the last sighting of the beast was on the 6th of May…" "That was nearly a month ago!" said Shadow "the public is advised to stay indoors after dusk and report any arousing suspicion to the police"

"Bullshit!" said Shadow, he turned away from the T.V, "do people really believe in monsters!" Rouge's eyes widened after what she heard on the news, she turned the T.V off and began to follow Shadow into the dining room, when they got in Omega was putting the plates on the table and lighting a couple of red candles in the middle of the table.

"Wow!" said Rouge, Shadow smirked and lead Rouge to the table; then he pulled the chair out for her so she could sit down. He then sat opposite her and smiled. Rouge blushed, she looked up to see Omega put a bottle of red wine on the table, "Thank you Omega" she said "I WILL BE IN THE KITCHEN" said Omega walking away from them.

Shadow smirked at Rouge, "I asked Omega to make this dish and set this up for you Rouge" he said, Rouge smiled and then reached her foot under the table to stretch towards Shadow. Shadow then felt Rouge's iron boot stroke up and down his leg. He laughed whilst blushing.

He then picked up the wine and poured some wine into his lover's glass, "wine my love?" he asked "thank you very much" Rouge looked into Shadow's blood red eyes. Shadow poured them some wine and then set the wine back on the table. "This looks nice Shad" said Rouge smiling at her lover, "I'm so happy that you asked Omega to make this"

"Anything for the woman I love Rouge" said Shadow, he smirked at the white bat, Rouge giggled, she loved it when Shadow gave her that evil smile, she remembered that, that was the feature that attracted her to him when she first met him. She looked down at her meal and began to eat it.

"It sucks that we can't go out after dusk" said Shadow, Rouge nodded, "it means we can't go to that cliff for a while on the seashore" Shadow groaned, "Yeah" he said resting his chin on his hands in disappointment. "Oh Shad" said Rouge "don't worry, at least we get some time together here, it's not a problem where we go!" Shadow looked up at her and smiled.
