By: Midnight Storm the Hedgedna

Written to: 'Nymphetamine'

Summery: The darkness of Sonic is Shadow; the darkness of Amy is Midnight. How it that opposites can be so alike? Shadow/OC. Silver/OC. Manic/OC. Alternate Universe fic

Did no one seriously read the prologue? Well, except for Lotus, but anyways… Here's the next chapter of 'Tears' out of my incredibly random mind! However… I can't express this enough… I write some Yaoi pairings, one posted here in this chapter. I don't care if you think it's wrong, just read and enjoy the fic!

Disclaimer: I don't own the Sonic Team, but Midnight, Dusk, Blade, Maniac, Kero, and Aero are my own creations

Kero's Pov

I can't believe that those two didn't get along like most of us did with our others. They bickered along, Shadow calling his other…Sonic, gay, while Sonic called Shadow angsty and emo. They seem to know each other very well, friends even, but why are they fighting? Then again, where am I to say that everyone gets along well with his or her other? I just met mine… Silver. I like his name. He's a quiet and thoughtful hedgehog who seems to have gotten some my psychic powers. Really cute as well… wait, I shouldn't be thinking about my other this way!

"Sonic, stop calling Shadow a fag, and get over here."

"SCOURGEY!"

"GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME SONIC!"

Turning around I saw that green hedgehog from a few minutes ago. Scourge, right? He looked exactly like Sonic, only green instead of blue. It seems that Sonic has some feelings for him, at the moment he's sitting on Scourge's lap. Oh well… Shadow's laughing, that's good.

Actually, I'm worried that Shadow doesn't remember. Either he doesn't want to remember or he needs a boost. Oh well, it took weeks to get Maniac to remember, and we resorted to trying to shove the emerald up his nose. Didn't work, but he remembered after he heard what had been his favorite song. Maybe we could take fluffy from him… or something… hell, I don't know! Listen to me trying to think rationally. Let's face it; I don't think like that, the first thing on my mind is usually when a new yaoi is coming out!

"Kero"

Holy shit, who was that? Oh, it's Silver. His voice is really high pitched…

"Yes, Silver?" That's good… Don't say anything retarted

"Didn't you hear Scourge? He has a place for all of you guys to stay. Incidentally, that's where most of us live." He shuffled his foot. "We're all sharing rooms, except Scourge, Sonic, Shadow, and Amy. Scourge because he doesn't want Sonic in there, Shadow because he doesn't like anyone, and Amy because she's a lesbian whore with Shadow's work partner, Rouge."

"That's cool." Silver gave me an odd look. "About sharing rooms, I don't mind. Whom would I be sharing with, anyways?"

"Er…" Silver looked around quickly, only to see that everyone was already walking down the street. "Probably me…?"

"Cool, that's cool"

"Dude, this is your house? It's freaking huge!"

I shot a looked at Maniac before looking at the house. Yes, it was huge, but with the what, fifteen of them, it might be a tad crowded. They were led through the front door, past some pink hedgehog who must have been Midnight's other by the smell, she was pissed off, by the way, probably at all of us coming to stay for a while. She must be Amy. Behind me was a hiss and I turned around to see Midnight hissing at the girl.

It was hilarious, Amy looked about ready to shit herself in surprise. A dark 'copy' of herself coming into the home she lived in and started hissing at her. I started to head back with the others, in time to trip over something, grab someone, and fall on something oddly warm and fluffy.

"Urk!"

Oh dear god, it sounds like Shadow. He can get pissy at times. On the other hand, his chest-fur is really warm… As Shadow shuffled, I braced for the impact, squeezing my eyes shut.

"Could you get off, Kero?"

The punch not coming, I opened one eye before pulling myself up quickly in shock. Oh god, that wasn't Shadow, it was Silver! Damnit! This is so wrong, why do I feel like this for him? I can't let him know, he'll hate me. Shit…

"Are you okay? We've told Manic not to leave his hoverboard around…"

"It's okay, my fault. Want a hand?"

Silver nodded and held his hand up to me. Grabbing it, I pulled him up as hard as I could, so he basically was less than a foot away. He looked at me a minute, and in that minute I couldn't help but notice he was wearing black eyeliner.

"You're aware you have pink around your eyes, right?" A slight pause "Have you been crying, Kero?"

Urk! He was looking at my eyes this whole time? Think of something, think of something! Wait… Shaking my head, I replied

"No, Silver, those are just markings on my face. I could ask you about the black around your eyes, but I won't."

Silver backed away embarrassed. Why is he embarrassed?

"Hey, come-on you two! We're gonna eat; play a game, then go to sleep! Come and eat!" Who the hell was that? This, 'Rouge' someone told me about? I don't like her already, she sounds like a bitch. I followed after Silver to the dining room.

Dinner was a simple meal of salad, lima beans, mashed potatoes, and chicken. Amy flat out refused to eat the beans, so Scourge was making a habit of flicking his at her hair. Across the table from me was Aero, looking thoughtful and glancing at Blaze now and then. Dusk and Tails weren't at the table, so they must be in the lab Sonic blabbed about earlier before Shadow shoved a bowl of salad in his face. I was just about to bite into my salad myself when there was a massive explosion below and above us. Plaster floated from the ceiling and covered us all in white. Disgusted, Scourge threw his food right in Rouge's face, who huffed away. Suppressing a giggle, I left the table and brushed myself off, ready to turn in.

However, that thought was let go when Sonic came tearing through the room with a very pissed off Shadow behind him, covered in what looked like Ranch and French salad dressing. Scourge stood in the doorway laughing, and fell to the floor from laughing so hard. The others were wisely staying out of the room. Tails and Dusk emerged from the basement covered in soot and tried to explain to Scourge that they had somehow blown up his lab on the fourth floor, and that he had to sleep in Sonic's room because Shadow would kill them. That's when everything went to hell. Sonic ran over and pounced on Scourge, followed still by Shadow, taking a shortcut by running over the couch I was on, then slamming into Sonic. Knuckles started screaming at Rouge, Amy and Midnight started fighting, and everyone else was talking about random things, like Chris Thorndyke, lesbians, yaoi, and for some odd reason, cheese. Well, almost everyone, Manic and Maniac were nowhere to be found. Sonic was now running on the couch.

OUCH! That little bastard just ran me over! That's it! Suddenly everyone was encased in pulsing yellow power as they floated helplessly around the room. Someone yelped as they bounced into the ceiling, oh well. A flash of blue light to my right caught my attention as my other freed himself with his own power.

"IT'S JUST A JUMP TO THE LEFT!"

Oh god, who started it. Oh, you wouldn't know. So, about a year ago someone discovered the movie, 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show'. They watched it over and over again, and it was good the first ten times, then it got annoying. Everyone would randomly burst out in song and dance everywhere we went, often times getting us banned. Except at Burger Queen, they loved it, anyways. So whenever I get annoyed and pissed off, someone starts singing it. Usually its Maniac or Dusk who starts it… wait, no, Midnight started it, she's waving at me.

"And a step to the ri-ri-ri-right!"

There, that was Maniac. Now the ALL have that look in their eye. I quickly let them down and dove for cover in hope that they would shut up. Shit, nope, they're all singing now. It sounds like the others joined in for the heck of it.

Okay… Shadow just dove behind the couch with me and is looking really afraid. He turned towards me, jerked his thumb at the others, and then twirled his finger around the side of his head. The others were crazy? I knew that already, thanks anyways man. I was about to say something when a big 'thump' made the floorboards move. Taking a peek, I noticed they had stopped singing and were all in a big heap on the floor giggling like they were on something.

Suddenly Scourge was right next to me, face to face, with an odd glint in his eye.

"Don't worry about the mess, my friend! I'll clean it up"

I stared at him. "Isn't this your house anyways?"

"Yes, yes it is. You just follow Silver to the room when you guys are staying, but hand me your hoodie, it has salad on it. Don't want it to get all over, right?"

I could see the sense in his words. Looking down, I saw that there was salad not only on my hoodie, but also on my gloves as well. Well hell, when the fuck did that happen? Complying with the green furry, I quickly stripped out of my hoodie and gloves and handed them over. Maniac took the time to wolf whistle and I answered with the bird.

Pervert.

So now I'm upstairs, too lost in my own thoughts to see where Silver is leading me. It's bit smoky up here and I think we're only up one flight. God, this house is freaking enormous. As Silver lead me up another set of stairs, I stopped when I noticed a painting of a particularly fat human man. Silver just walked off, seemingly not noticing that he had left me behind. The fat guy interested me, why would there be a painting of such a man in this house? Black sunglasses, an enormous bushy reddish-brown mustache with white ends, and, this was really daff, some gray goggles on top of his baldhead.

"Silver, why have you got a picture of a fat guy on the wall?"

"Eh?" Silver obviously just now noticed that I wasn't behind him. Figures. Anyway, he came tramping down the steps to look at the picture with me for a minute before he started shouting down the stairs at his mates.

"CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY WE HAVE A NUDE PAINTING OF DR. EGGMAN ON OUR WALL?"

Ow, that was practically in my ear.

"WHAT WAS THAT SILVER? WE'RE WATCHING AMY AND THAT MIDNIGHT GIRL FIGHT!"

He was not wrong, I could hear Midnight screaming now that I actually listened.

There was a slight pause where someone said something but it was masked by a very loud crash, and then…

"FATASS IS ON THE WALL NUDE?!"

Oh great, here they all come up the stairs now. As if seeing the upcoming result, Silver grabbed me by the arm and hauled me up stairs and down a hallway, Blimey, he didn't look it but Silver was strong. Suddenly he opened a door, pushed me inside, and closed it softly, seconds before the mob got upstairs. And he was still outside.

"Where's that picture at, Silver?" That was Sonic.

"You passed it already, it was on the steps coming up here."

"Oh really? I didn't notice… WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING ROUGE?!"

Suddenly the door slammed open and Scourge came in, pushing both Silver and I towards the closet. Why?

"Oi, stop pushing us around!" Scourge just looked at me while pushing still.

"No, hide in here! Shield your eyes!" He shoved us both in the closet, shut and locked the door, and then followed Rouge like the sick pervert he was. I think, all I heard was his footsteps leave the room and go in the direction that I think Rouge went. Sighing, I leaned back and pushed against something warm and fluffy. Does Silver have any coats in here? Where did Silver get to, anyways?

That's when it hit me.

That 'coat' I was leaning against WAS Silver. Why hadn't he said anything, why hadn't he pushed me off of him? Turning my head a fraction, I was greeted with a red face. What?

"Er, Silver. I'm sorry about this, would you like me to move?" Where would I move to, this closet was tiny!

"N-no, you're alright Kero… Not much room to move to anyways…"

As I was about to reply, I heard someone coming into the room towards the closet. Hopefully they'll let us out. Hopefully.

"Yea, hold on Rouge, I need to get a shirt from Silver's closet, mine is ripped."

"Why don't you get one from your own closet?"

"The explosion from Scourge's lab set mine on fire"

"Oh, well, hurry up, its cold in here and Scourge stole my shirt"

Bright light suddenly filled the small space and I caught a glimpse of pink before a peach hand reached in and grabbed my chest fur and pulled HARD. Eyes watering, I turned the best I could and wrapped my arms around Silver and gripped the best I could. Silver just looked at me, over my shoulder at Amy, then back at me, wrapping his arms around me to pull me away from her. As Amy tugged harder, I tried curling a little and tried pulling away more, which just ended up in me pressing myself up against Silver. Realizing my position, the said hedgehog looked at me with an extremely red face. I raised my eyebrows as if to tell him I couldn't help it.

"Why won't this shirt come out?!"

What, was this girl really that stupid?

"Oi missus! I would like it if you would stop pulling my fur, it bloody hurts!" Gritting my teeth I smiled apologetically at Silver, that must have hurt his ears. At that moment Amy screamed and let me go, resulting in my upper body shooting forward and in my snogging of Silver accidentally!

"IEEE! THAT SHIRT JUST SPOKE!" With that, the door slammed shut and she ran from the room, leaving us in darkness again.

"Amy, I think someone was in there…"

Oh god. Shit. Pulling away from Silver I started to panic.

"O-oh god Silver, I'm so sor-sorr-" He cut me off

"Shut up"

And then he snogged me! His face was still red and he had an odd gleam in his eye, but he was the one snogging me as if his life depended on it. Shocked I just stood there until he pulled my head closer to his. Taking his lips off mine he put his mouth by my ear.

"I don't know what it is about you Kero, something about you just draws me in and makes me want more"

Wait, what?

"What are you talking about?"

"Shush"

And then he snogged me again! He as quite groovy-bananas at it, but I seriously just met him. Cheeky Cat. As I was about to retort to him, the door slammed open again.

"MY YAOI SENSES ARE TINGLING!"

It was Midnight, figures. Silver stopped snogging me long enough to see who it was and decide not to care. I looked at her and she just looked right back.

"Yea… I'm gonna leave now. Just wanted you to know that Scourge was gonna get a picture of you two going at it and stuff… And Kero, don't act coy, we all know you want him right back.

And then she left. What fresh hell was that about?
