Rating: T for language.
Disclaimer: Rush belongs to me and Xadamjackson13 (yes Ven, I'm still mad), Sonic and the other's don't. Don't sue us.
A/N: Not so much a true 'sequel' as it is a spin-off. But hey, what am I gonna do? On with the fic!
Chapter One
(Third person POV; Tails' lab, 9:30 AM)
Tails was once again sitting in front of his microscope. He was currently checking some samples of Shadow's DNA to make sure he had completely gone back to normal. He smiled a bit when he thought of the black and crimson hedgehog. Ever since he'd returned to normal, he'd been hanging out with Kira more. He looked, dare he say it, happy. His muse was interrupted by a loud shout of his name from across the lab. It was none other than his cousin Rush.
"What's wrong Rush?" he asked, watching as his relative stumble around his lab.
"I need a favor from you."
(Still third person POV; Kira and Sonic's house)
Kira was in the kitchen with Shadow. The two were doing a bit of "mom/son" bonding over a game of checkers. The pair were in deep thought, trying to predict the other's next move. That's when the phone rang. Kira groaned a bit, contemplating just letting it ring until her phone displayed who was calling. She called a time out and picked up.
"Rush this better be good. I'm in the middle of a checkers game with Shadow and I think I'm gonna lose." She glanced over at the afforementioned hedgehog, who had a sly grin on his face, and sighed, he had beaten her. She mouthed the word cheater. "Never mind. I lost. What's up?"
"Actually Kira, it's me Tails." he said.
"Why are you calling from Rush's phone?" She asked, her voice a bit worried.
"He asked me to. He said he needs you to come over here." She sighed.
"Alright, I'll be over in a little bit." She said before hanging up. She turned to Shadow. "This isn't over. I'll beat you next time."
"Looking forward to beating you again." he responded with another sly grin.
"Sometimes I wonder if I spoiled you too much."
"Well I do now mildly dislike ice cream." Kira just laughed and shook her head.
Rush's POV
This had to be one of my best plans ever. Scourge was being way to mean to Shadow and now I was gonna show him how bad kids could be. Tails had been experimenting with whatever had turned Shadow into a baby and I knew he was just itching to try his new discoveries on something so I volunteered. He had created an age changing device and I knew Kira had left some baby clothes hanging around. I wasn't exactly all the way a baby. I had Tails give me a few years advantage that way I could show Scourge how bad kids really could be. And in order to do that I needed to be able to walk. Kira entered the lab and squealed.
"OMT! Rush you're sooooo cute!" she said as she snuggled me. I whined a little. Knew she was gonna react like this..."Can I ask why he's like this now?" she asked Tails.
"He said something about making Scourge pay before he threatened me." Kira sweatdropped and I grinned. Hey, Tails may be my cousin but he's not above threats. "I guess he wants to see how Scourge would react if he was a single parent."
"Sounds like a solid plan." She said as she put me down. "So what now? We just drop him off at his place?"
"Yep. He said he 'persuaded' Scourge and Ashura to wait there for him. Just take him over and explain the situation to them."
"Alrighty then." She picked me up again and we left the lab. I couldn't rememeber the last time Kira was taller than me. Being only four foot eleven at age nineteen, she was only a foot or two taller than some of the other inhabitants of Mobius. I, however, was four foot twelve and that made me taller than her, even if it was only an inch. Still, I'd always been taller than her so it was a little weird for it to be the other way around. We reached the apartment and to my great relief, Ashura opened the door. Playing the cute and innocent role, I reached my arms out for him to pick me up.
"Ashuwa!" His jaw dropped and Kira faked a nervous laugh.
"Long story short, Tails accidentally made Rush a baby and well, you and Scourge should be able to take care of him until Tails can fix him." she said.
"Wait a sec, why can't we just use Chaos Control like you did with Shadow?" he asked.
"Y'see, this isn't caused by Chaos Control...Tails built something that could do it." Scourge, who had been sulking in the kitchen, came to see what was going on.
"Who's kid is that?!" he yelled.
"Will you relax? It's just Rush. Tails accidentally did this and before you ask, no we can't just use Chaos Control on him. So there." I was then handed to Ashura.
"Wait, you aren't leaving him here are you?!" Scourge yelled.
"Yes I am. I'll be back though, I have to get the baby stuff out of storage." she said as she walked down the hallway. "Just keep an eye on him." Scourge sighed and looked at me.
"Great...now I have to stay here with the faker..." he mumbled. I grinned, reaching my arms out.
"Scourgie! UP!" he sighed and I could see his heart melt a little. He took me from Ashura and held me.
"Heh, well this isn't so bad." he said as he pinched my cheek. "You're cuter this way. And less violent."
"I wouldn't think that if I were you." Ashura chimed as he began moving things around to make room for the playpen and highchair. "Rush was still violent when he was little." Scourge scoffed.
"Oh please. How could something this cute be all violent?" He snuggled me and something clicked. I dug my claws into his back.
"SPINE! MINE!" Scourge screamed bloody murder and Ashura had to pry me off of him.
"No Rush! No spine!" I started to cry.
"The hell!?"
"I told you he was violent! He had a bad habit of trying to rip peoples spines out when they held him!" he said. I was still wailing when Kira returned, Shadow helping her with the various baby items.
"What happened to the faker?" Shadow asked. Scourge was lying face down on the couch with bandaids and an ice pack on his back.
"Rush tried do de-spine him didn't he?" Kira asked.
"Yeah and he hasn't stopped crying since I pried him off." he said. "Please tell me you have something for that."
"Don't worry, I brought my file and the mittens." She filed my claws down and put a bright blue mitten over each hand. "Here Shadow, hold him for a second." Shadow took me and I tried to dig my now non-existant claws into his back. I whined when I couldn't and began to cry again. Kira stuck a honey coated binky into my mouth and I quickly shut up. Shadow sat me in the playpen while Kira talked to Ashura.
"This is only for the next two weeks. He wants to teach Scourge a lesson for picking on Shadow and he wants Scourge to learn how to handle kids."
"While this is probably a bad idea, I agree with Rush's decision. Scourge needs to learn since Rush does want kids eventually." he grinned. "Don't worry Ki, he'll be fine. I took care of him once, I can do it again." She finished setting everything up and she and Shadow left. Ashura peeked into the playpen and patted me on the head. "So looks like we're gonna give Scourge a bit of a wake up call, huh kiddo?" I pretended I had no idea what he was talking about and played with my toys. He just smiled and went about his business. I smiled deviously. This was gonna be a fun two weeks.
Hey hey people. Rush is a very violent toddler isn't he? The wait is over and here's the first chapter of the Oh Baby? spin-off, Here We Go Again? I'm not too sure that this'll be as good as the original but I'll try and do my best. Here's to you all, enjoy!
