It's summer! Yay! Well, I've been in the Yu-Gi-Oh! part of town for a while, so I decided to take a visit with the Sonic the Hedgehog section. This story when I first wrote it two years ago, there were only three Shadeam romance stories. Now, I'm back in 2011 and there are eight! Just warning you, this and many others are long chapters. Only three won't be super long. But with all the action in this, long chapters are just simply fabulous (YGOTAS reference ftw!). This intro chapter might be boring at first, but it does have some fun, fun, fun! Woot, woot! Well, there are about to be nine! So, without further ado, Love Has No Boundaries!
Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog. They belong to Sega. I also don't own the Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series references I'll sometimes make throughout the story.
OCs in the Story
Raven the Dark Vixen: She is Shadow's current girlfriend who is as mean as hell to Cream and acts like a skank for a while. She's a red tipped twin tailed fox who wears a red halter top, a black mini skirt, and red Converse. She has black fur, black and red hair, and red eyes.
Skye the Light Vixen: Raven's twin sister. She is the exact opposite of Raven. Skye is very nice, and she has white fur, two tails like Raven, but are white with light blue tips, has white and blue hair, and wears a light blue jumpsuit and boots similar to Fiona Fox. She has light blue eyes
Flame the Hedgehog (who appears much later): Flame is the cousin of Shadow, and as his name suggests, he's a pyro kinetic. He looks exactly like Shadow, only instead of just red streaks in his quills, they are red, orange, and yellow. He usually wears an orange T-shirt, black skinny jeans, and black and orange Nikes. Flame is very sweet and romantic.

Summary: Cream is one of the new freshmen at Station Square High. On the first day, she gets shown around by the hot senior Shadow the Hedgehog. When Cream starts to fall in love with him, she won't let a jealous girlfriend and age differences stand in the way.
Chapter 1 The First Day part 1
Clutching her books and first high school schedule nervously, Cream the Rabbit made her way to Station Square High School. She has been walking to and from all of her schools every day for years. Cream has grown up a lot. She has honey blond hair with light brown and orange streaks that reaches halfway down her back. Her voice isn't as high pitched anymore, and it sounds like an average fourteen year old female voice.
For her first day, Cream decided to dress in a catchy fashion. She was wearing a light brown tank top, orange skinny jeans, light brown and orange Coach sneakers, and a charm bracelet.
"You look like a piece of Halloween candy." her mother Vanilla had told her on her way out.
"Mom. I'm just matching today. This is the first day of the rest of my teenage life. I wanna good start." Cream replied.
Five minutes later, Cream had reached SSH (Station Square High). She was amazed by all of the people that flocked the school grounds.
"Oh my." Cream whispered.
She made her way to the front doors. A sign on the door said All Freshmen Meet In The Student Center.
Cream went in and immediately saw a bunch of freshmen looking around nervously. Cream joined the group. Just then, a female wolf and a group of older students walked over to the freshmen.
"Hello everyone, and welcome to Station Square High School. My name is Principal Hunt. Now, these seniors are going to be your companions for two weeks, showing you around and making you feel comfortable."
"That's what she said!" an immature freshman called out.
Most of the other freshmen (even some seniors) giggled. Principal Hunt cleared her throat, and the seniors immediately stopped laughing. The freshmen followed their example.
"As I was saying, seniors, pick a freshman, introduce yourself, and get started" she finished.
All of the seniors started moving towards the freshmen. They were scared out of their minds looking at the seniors towering over them. Cream looked down, scared to make eye contact. Someone tapped her shoulder. She looked up to see a black hedgehog with red streaks in his quills, looking at her with emotionless crimson eyes.
"Hi." he said tonelessly to the rabbit.
"H-hi." Cream replied, feeling self-conscious.
"I'm Shadow the Hedgehog. What's your name?" Shadow asked.
"Cream the Rabbit." Cream answered nervously.
"Cool. Let's head to your homeroom." Shadow muttered, peering at her schedule.
As the two headed to Mr. Franklin's classroom, Cream couldn't help but feel awkward. The two reached Mr. Franklin's class in no time, but it felt like hours for Cream.
"See ya after class." Shadow muttered, walking to his class.
"Oh, um, okay." Cream replied, but he was already gone.
Cream sat down at a desk that was at the very front. Freshmen filed in one by one. When the bell for class to begin rang, Mr. Franklin came up to the front of the class. He was a grey cat with green eyes.
"Hello, class! My name is Mr. Franklin-"
"Dude, we know. We saw it outside your class, and on our schedules." a red raccoon snapped.
"You saw it? That's what she said!" Mr. Franklin cried.
The entire class laughed, including Cream.
"Scott, dude, he totally owned you!" a guy cried to the raccoon.
"Flaming teachers for the win!" a girl cried.
When the laughter died down, Mr. Franklin continued his speech. "I'm your homeroom and period one World History teacher. For the rest of homeroom, you may talk, and Scotch Tape over there can tape his mouth shut." he said teasingly to Scott.
Cream looked around. Everyone had someone to talk to but her. Cream sighed and put her head down. Thirty minutes later. homeroom was over and class started. That day, the class learned about Ancient Egypt.
"Were there really dueling pharaohs and dark magicians and supernatural tomb robbers back then?" a huge Yu-Gi-Oh fan asked.
Mr. Franklin sweatdropped. "No, um, what's your name?"
"Yugi Muto." the fox replied.
"Eh, no, there wasn't. So, on with class!"
The bell rang fifty minutes later. Cream walked out of class, nit sure what to do or where to go. Then, she spotted Shadow leaning against the wall, waiting for her. His eyes were closed.
"Oh, hi Shadow. How'd you get here so fast?" Cream asked.
Shadow opened on eye halfway.
"My teacher excused the seniors who are showing the puny panthers around. But I simply used Chaos Control, so I had time to spare." he replied.
"Puny panthers?" Cream repeated confusedly.
"Oh, that's just what we call freshmen here. The panther is our mascot, and since the freshmen are so small, scared, and new, that's what we call you guys."
"Well that's not very nice! We could call you seniors the Arrogant Assholes." Cream snapped angrily.
Then, Cream quickly covered her mouth and stared wide-eyed at Shadow. She feared what Shadow was going to say. Shadow had a blank look on his face, but then his bottom lip curved into a smirk.
"That's a good one, because that's what us seniors really are. Come on, I'll show you to your next class. I see it's biology."
Cream was surprised as Shadow led her to Mrs. Schafer's room. He didn't kill her or ditch her.
"See you." Shadow said before leaving, smirking to himself.
"Bye." Cream replied softly.
Cream has heard rumors that seniors are just monsters. Sure, they're hubristic, but this senior is really cool.
Wow, it's the first day and I already impressed a senior. Cream thought happily as she went into class.
The bell rang fifty-two minutes later, and it was time for algebra. Shadow was once again already there at the door, thanks to Chaos Control.
"So you have algebra with Mrs. Richards? I had her when I was a puny panther." Shadow said, teasing slightly.
Cream giggled and followed Shadow. "I'd rather be a puny panther than an arrogant asshole."
"Meh, it's hard to escape it. You see, at the end of your junior year, you get a thing called senioritis. It's very contagious, and the symptoms are feelings of power as you think about your senior and cockiness, like a certain blue hedgehog I know…" Shadow explained, muttering the last part.
"I'll make sure to get my vaccine early." Cream replied, smiling.
They reached Mrs. Richard's class, and they bid farewell again. After suffering math for fifty-four minutes, it was time for choir. She made the Panther Counterpoints, the top choir at SSH. As Shadow walked her down to Mr. Pierce's room, Shadow said "I see you and I have the same lunch period, but I won't be able to walk you to the cafeteria. I'm on the varsity football team here, and the starter team and the captain varsity and junior varsity cheerleaders usually have a meeting in the first day of school before the heat of the lunch crowd gets there."
"Oh." Cream said, looking down.
So he's one of those popular football jocks who get all the cheerleaders? Never would have guessed at first. Cream thought.
"Retrace your steps from the choir room, and at the end of this hallway, turn left and you'll see the cafeteria, okay?" Shadow asked.
Cream nodded, disappointed. Shadow quickly left, and one thought was on Cream's mind; who will she eat lunch with?
Choir ended too soon for Cream. The bell rang, and Cream nervously made her way to the cafeteria. She got in line and waited to buy her lunch. After she paid, Cream looked around the already crowded cafeteria. She saw freshmen that made new friends already. Cream, being the shy person she is, hasn't made any yet. Cream sighed as she walked around the cafeteria, seeing if there was anywhere she could sit. She finally found an empty table and sat by herself, embarrassed about it.
Shadow spotted Cream by herself from his table. There was one seat left available at the table, and he really would be an arrogant asshole if he left her there, even if she was a freshman and not in varsity anything. Shadow glanced at his girlfriend who was in his lap.
"Hey, Raven? I'll be right back." Shadow told her.
"I'll be waiting." Raven the Dark Vixen purred seductively.
Raven gave Shadow a flirtatious wink, and Shadow gave her a small smile before walking over to Cream.
Raven has changed, Shadow thought. I'm not sure if she'll ever be the Raven I once knew and fell in love with…
Shadow made his way over to Cream's empty table.
"Hi, Shadow. What are doing over here by the puny panther?" Cream asked sadly.
"Cream, don't be ridiculous. You don't have to sit by yourself. In fact, I'm not allowing you to sit alone. Come with me." Shadow said, picking up her lunch tray.
Cream's eyes lit up when Shadow led her to his table of friends. Shadow sat her tray on the table where the last seat was, which was next to a pink hedgehog and a purple cat. Cream became shy right away when everyone stared at her.
The pink hedgehog sensed Cream's insecurity. She decided to make her feel welcome.
"Hi there! I'm Amy Rose. What's your name?" she asked cheerfully.
"Cream the Rabbit." Cream replied timidly.
"No need to feel shy, Cream. A friend of Shadow's is a friend of mine!" Amy replied.
"I'm Blaze," the purple cat said to Cream. "What grade are you in?"
"Nine." Cream replied, feeling a bit more comfortable.
"Oh! A puny panther! Don't take offense to that nickname, by the way. We were all puny panthers at one point. Unless, you were Tails, that is." Blaze smirked.
A golden yellow fox blushed at the mention of his situation.
"Hey! It's not my fault that I have a super high IQ and a super high GPA." Tails told his friend.
"You make it sound like it's simple." Shadow muttered sarcastically.
"Oh, yeah, Shads! How were you able to meet Cream here?" Tails asked.
"I'm in that welcoming committee program so I can earn some community service credit." Shadow explained.
"You're in that program again, Shadsie? Last year. you got suspended for cussing a puny panther out!" A blue hedgehog reminded him.
"Stuff it, Faker!" Shadow snapped.
"Quit hating on my swag, Shads! This Sonic the Hedgehog can outrun anybody!" Sonic cried.
"Sonic, referring to yourself in the third person does not make you a badass." a silver hedgehog snickered.
"Shut your telephonesis up, Silver!" Sonic cried.
"It's telekinesis, smartass." a white two tailed vixen said.
"You would know that Polish mumbo jumbo, Skye." Sonic said stupidly, rolling his eyes.
A purple chameleon glanced over at Sonic, shaking his head.
"You are denser than fog, Sonic. Telekinesis is a word in English, not Polish. The word telekinesis is Polish is telekineza." he informed Sonic.
"You just got pawned by Espio!" a red echidna shouted.
"You are the last person to be talking about getting pawned, Knuckles." an ivory bat smirked. "You and Sonic made a bet in who would get a higher GPA last year for midterm, and Sonic beat you by a full two points. His GPA was a 2.5."
"I thought we promised each other not to bring that up, Rouge!" Knux hissed, seeing Sonic laugh.
"To be honest the only super smart people at this table is Tails and Cosmo." Rouge replied, pointing at the twin tailed fox and the green Seedrian.
"True…" Tails smirked.
Cream just watched as everyone argued about the other. Shadow leaned from across the table and whispered to Cream "Ignore them. We do that all the time."
Cream just smiled and watched the entertaining group of upperclassmen.
"So Cream, how old are you?" Sonic asked when the arguing died down.
"Fourteen." Cream replied, more confident.
"You're pretty cute for a fourteen year old." Sonic complimented her, giving her a wink.
Cream blushed as Amy scolded Sonic.
"Not every girl is going to fawn over you, Sonic. You're just lucky that you have me." Amy smirked.
"Hold up now! I was just playing around." Sonic defended
"Playing, huh? So are you saying that you were playing around with Cream?" Amy rebutted.
Sonic sweat dropped. "No…it's not like that… ARRGH! You're making this too difficult! I give up."
Amy smirked in victory.
The bell rang, and lunch ended there.
"Bye cutie." Raven told Shadow, patting him on his ass.
Cream shivered at the sight. She couldn't imagine doing that to someone.
"Let's go." Shadow told Cream, as if nothing happened.
Cream happily followed Shadow out if the cafeteria, happy she made her first high school friends.
Cream had English honors next. Shadow led her to Mr. Olden's room.
"You're friends are such nice people. None of them are freshmen, are they?" Cream asked.
"No, they aren't. Sonic, Skye, Amy, Blaze, Raven, Knuckles, Rouge, and of course I are seniors. Tails, due to his super brain, is a junior. Cosmo is a sophomore. You're the only freshman."
"Oh." Cream said, sort of intimidated by the number of seniors.
They reached Mr. Olden's room.
"I'll be back to take you to Hotaru-sensei's class for Japanese. I'm in your class as well, so it'll be easy." Shadow told Cream.
"Okie-doke then. Ja ne!" Cream replied.
"Sayonara." Shadow said in return.
Many minutes later, English honors ended.
Shadow is super nice. I can see that in no time at all, we'll be best friends. Cream thought.
As usual, Shadow was waiting for her outside class. He's so devoted.
"Hey." Shadow greeted her.
"Hello. Shadow, you're really kind. The guys in middle school were so prideful and super immature. You're different." Cream said.
"Um, thanks." Shadow replied, not sure what else to say.
The two walked to Japanese class together, unaware that this was the start of something more than just friendship.
Okay, so the original chapter was suuuuuuper long, so this is going to be in two parts. What other adventures await Cream and the gang? And what's the secret behind Raven and her behavior? You'll find out soon! Oh, and please review! Like a writer from the Yu-Gi-Oh! part of town said….
