a/n: Did I ever mention how fucking awesome you guys are? Seriously, I did realize that From Dusk to Dawn had over 1000 hits. Damn you guys fucking rock! Resist has over 700 as well...Damn, dudes! You left me speechless!
Anyway, this is here due to popular demand. Even though a LOT of you didn't review [that's right, I'm watching you] I had a hunch you would like this. Plus those of you who did review practically ordered this, so SPECIAL DELIVERY. :3
SEGA, me and you have this argument EVERY DAMN TIME. I buy your games and am in love with two of your characters, so support me DAMMIT. Little language warning; for me and Shadow. :3 No verbal filter, remember?
One: Beaches and Brothers
Today was the perfect day to be by the water. The sun was high in the sky, covered minutely by the few clouds that littered the blue. The water was the perfect temperature and everyone was having a great time.
"Dammit! This isn't fair!"
Well…mostly everyone was having a great time.
Amy lowered her sunglasses and sat up from her towel. She sighed, another nap in the sun interrupted.
"What's wrong, Sonic?" she asked, a sarcastic lilt to her voice. He stormed over to his spot next to her and plopped down on the blue striped towel.
"My stupid brother's moving here! I really don't want him here in my city." Sonic grumbled like a child, crossing his arms.
Rolling her eyes, she placed a hand on his shoulder. "I think you're being overdramatic. It can't be that bad."
"But it is! Plus, he's meeting us here at the beach later." He replied before getting up and running over to play Frisbee with Knuckles and Tails.
Amy stared at him confusion, not noticing when Rouge and Cream came over to her spot to sit by her.
"Why do you think Sonic's so upset about his brother meeting us?" the pink hedgehog questioned, twirling her bubblegum locks with a finger.
Rouge shrugged. "I honestly didn't even know Sonic had a brother. He's so spoiled; you'd assume he was an only child."
The rabbit and hedgehog laughed, agreeing with that statement.
"I don't get what he's so worked up about. If he has a brother, don't you think he'd be like Sonic?" Cream asked, watching the boys toss the green Frisbee back and forth.
The question went unanswered and the trio just continued to watch, and occasionally cheer, the Frisbee game. Forty-five minutes later, Sonic jogged tiredly back over to where Amy sat and flopped down onto his towel.
The two sat there peacefully before Amy couldn't hold her question in any longer.
"Sonic," she started and he mumbled to let her know he was listening. "Is your brother a younger brother? Because if he's moving here, I can help you take care of him or whatever."
The blue hedgehog burst out laughing, flailing his arms everywhere. Amy scowled, crossing her arms and waiting for him to finish.
"Ha, I'm sorry Amy, but Shadow isn't someone you take care of. He's too…untamable." Sonic said, sounding more serious towards the end.
She scoffed. "Oh, really; I'd like to see that for myself."
Sonic opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by the roar of a sports bike. "Now you have the chance." He remarked, his expression a mix between a grimace and a smile.
"So…he's not your younger brother?" she asked as the bike got closer.
"Nope; we're fraternal twins." Sonic replied and her eyes widened.
Twins; she never would've guessed that.
While Sonic went over to talk to the boys about something, Rouge and Cream appeared by her sides once again.
"So, apparently, Sonic has a twin brother named Shadow. And I think that's him on the bike over there." Amy announced and they turned their heads to see a black and red Ducati 1098 park underneath a tree.
"You think he's cute?" Rouge questioned and both Amy and Cream whirled around to look at her. "What? Just because I have Knuckles doesn't mean I can't observe other men."
Amy laughed lightly, shaking her head at her friend. "You're shameless." She turned around to get another glance at the mysterious brother, but was surprised to find him gone.
"Where'd he go?" Cream questioned and Rouge tapped both their shoulders and pointed in the direction of where the boys were talking.
"All I have to say is...he is way too fine to be Sonic's brother." Rouge remarked and both girls found themselves agreeing.
Shadow was a black hedgehog with red streaks running through his wild quills. He also had inviting, but dangerous crimson eyes that made Amy's heart race. He was wearing a black wife beater, black and red board shorts, and some hover shoes Amy swore she saw somewhere.
He was talking to Tails while Amy's eyes wandered and the second her eyes went to roam his face once more, his fiery gaze snapped to hers. She froze, feeling like she'd been caught with her hand in the cookie jar. He held her there with his eyes and it was the strangest thing ever watching him holding a conversation with Tails while pinning her to the sand with his gaze.
This went on for a couple of minutes until she heard Tails say, "I've probably been going on about nothing for a while now, huh? You haven't even met the girls yet."
She thought that she would die from his looks and eyes alone.
That was until he spoke in that dark, sensuous voice of his that made Amy wonder why she never met him before.
"You're right," Shadow said, his eyes still locked with hers. They drifted momentarily before looking at Tails. "I haven't."
Tails led Shadow over to the group of girls while the girls themselves struggled to focus.
Don't get them wrong. They loved their boyfriends.
But Shadow was like that very fine actor in the movie where the damsel in distress always falls for her never ugly, forever sexy savior.
Basically, he was hot for a hedgehog.
Tails gestured to each of them respectively while introducing them. "Girls, this is Shadow; Sonic's twin brother. Shadow, these beautiful girls are Cream, Rouge, and Amy."
Amy met Shadow's eyes again and he gave them a mysterious smirk that made him look even more alluring. "Nice to meet you, ladies." He greeted, that wicked grin never leaving his face.
Cue swoon.
From then one, everyone but Sonic spent time questioning Shadow about his life. He revealed very few things, showing that he was a very private.
Quite the opposite of Sonic, it would seem.
Over the course of the day, Amy found that Shadow was a very intriguing person. He fit the bill of tall, dark, and handsome to the tee. He was quiet, but always observing. He was also very intelligent, having gotten into a heated debate with Tails about quantum mechanics.
Why didn't she find him sooner?
No, Amy! What're you saying? You love Sonic, remember? She thought while resting against the rocks that littered the shallow waters. Sonic had left earlier to take care of some "business" and Knuckles and Rouge had left ten minutes.
Cream, Tails, and Shadow were having a conversation about something she cared less about, leaving her in peace.
Finally…She thought and began stretching before she went to swim. She bent down to touch her toes and jumped a mile high when someone placed their hands on her hips.
"Tails, what the hell are you doing? Your girlfriend is my best friend re…mem…ber." Amy said, trailing off when she turned around to find Shadow smirking down at her wickedly.
"H-Hi, Shadow; what're you doing?" she questioned anxiously, stepping out of his grasp as if he burned her. Not that she had anywhere to go, seeing as there was nothing but rocks and water surrounding them.
"Wondering how the fuck my idiot brother got to you first." He answered bluntly, trapping her with his blazing crimson eyes.
Her own eyes widened to the size of saucers and before she could respond, he pulled her to him and crushed his lips to hers in a scorching kiss.
She meant to fight back.
She really did.
If only he wasn't such a damn good kisser…
a/n: Back already? Damn, I was in the middle of making pizza. Anyway, did you like it? This is going to be the story leading up to that scene I wrote in the original Resist. And to tell you the honest truth, I have no fucking idea what I'm doing. That was a experiment that resulted from lack of sleep and being hyped up on Skittles.
I didn't see it doing so well, but...
Anyway, thanks to those of you who reviewed! I lurve you guys like a motherfucker!
