The alarm clock beeped, letting me know that it was 8:00 am. I groaned and used my powers to turn off the machine, then turned over to get some more sleep. But, nature called. I went to use the bathroom, and resigned myself to the fact that I wasn't 'gonna get anymore sleep.
I entered my small kitchen and went to make some breakfast when it hit me. The little 'sixth sense' I had, that warned me whenever Iblis was too close, the feeling I had, and ignored, I'm sad to say. Meeting Mephiles, even though he helped us, gave me that same feeling. It was attacking me full force. All the fur on my body stood up and I looked around nervously.
Someone knocking on my door surprised me out of it. I bolted for the door and asked, "Who's there?"
"It's me, hun," Rouge replied. "Why, expecting somebody?" I calmed down a little and let her in. She breezed by me and I glared at the bags in her hands. In fact, one back looked suspiciously like a...
"Rouge, why do you have all these bags here? And why do you have a garment bag?"
She chuckled and said, "Well, the president has decided to throw a party to celebrate the anniversary of the defeat of the Black Arms, and all heroes are expected. I'm here to make sure you look good for the party, and I can already tell." Here she started eyeing my still frizzy fur. "That it's gonna take awhile." So saying, she steered me into the bathroom, and styled and primped me within an inch of my life.
In the bathroom, Rouge was working on my hair and I was... Muttering evil things about humans and their parties. I was at the mirror, enabling me to watch her reaction. Her ears twitched when I said something particularly nasty.
"Hun, the parties aren't that bad. Why do you not like them?" she asked in a sensible tone.
"Because I hate dressing up. Especially for these stupid celebrations where I'm forced to go," I replied. "In fact, I told Sonic that the only way I'd go to these shindigs is if you killed me first," I finished, frowning a little.
"Well, sorry hun. But at least you're not the only one. Believe it or not, Shadow hates them to," she stated with a smirk.
"Oh, I believe it all right." I said, giggling a little at the image of Shadow at a formal party. My giggles escalated, and Rouge joined in, our laughter echoing around in the room.
When I finally exited the bathroom two hours later, I still had to put on the dress and shoes, and according to Rouge, some jewellery. Rouge beat me to the kitchen and started cooking. I went for the couch instead and found myself staring at the mystery box. I grabbed it and eyed it suspiciously. Rouge walked in to find me having a staring contest at the thing. She snickered and pulled it out of my hands. She opened it and gasped, causing my curiosity to pique.
I couldn't help but gasp when I saw the beautiful necklace. The necklace was simple looking overall, but... It wasn't at the same time. The chain was made of silver, but this silver was almost white in color. The same type of silver was used for the wire that wrapped around the jewel in unique designs. The jewel was a light blue in color, a cross between aqua and teal.
Rouge looked at me and asked, "Who gave this to you?"
"I dunno, it was sent anonymously," I said, half truthfully.
She replied, "Well, you're wearing this stunner at the party. It matches." She laid it off to the side and headed into my room, snapping her fingers as a signal to follow her. I trudged after her, and after another hour and a half of torture, I was ready. Well, almost.
Rouge clasped the necklace around my neck and steered me to a mirror. I stared at the hedgehog in the glass; was that really me?! My quills were soft and shiny. There was a hairpin shaped like a white rose in my quills. My dress was the same color as the jewel in my necklace, while the shoes and matching shawl were white. The necklace rested comfortably in the hollow of my throat. Rouge had turned me into... someone else altogether!
She laughed at the expression on my face and said, in a serious tone, "Now not even Shadow will be able to keep his eyes off you." She laughed again at the blush creeping up my face.
A honk outside surprised me. I glanced at the clock, and my jaw nearly dropped. It was 4:00 pm! Rouge grabbed me by the hand and pulled me out the door. The door to the limousine opened and Sonic's voice floated out, "Hey, Silver! You still aliiiiiiiii..." he trailed off in utter shock as he took it all in. Rouge chuckled and pulled him out of the way so I could get in.
I saw Shadow staring at me and our eyes met. He grunted and looked away quickly. I stared at him in utter confusion until the door slammed shut. Sonic was... a little fidgety about the small space. I huffed and glanced at Shadow. He smirked at me, and as the car started moving, voiced what I was thinking: "It's gonna be a long trip."
