Finally I got around to typing the second chapter of this story. I say Im sorry ahead of time if it feels like this chapter didnt achieve much but it thickens the story a little. So read on!

The morning came with dawns light to show just what damage the previous night's storm brought. Along with the usual damage of roofing tiles blown into the roads, a few windows were broken, power lines snapped and some good size trees uprooted. All of that however didn't compare to the incidents that went down in two separate G.U.N. bases. News channels were having a field day going over the facts that were being handed out.

"For those of you just turning in here at SSN, in the middle of a fierce storm at two government bases the body count still goes up. At two separate government bases workers were slaughtered in an attack by unknown sources. Only one survivor to tell the tale of last night's attack, but he's not talking. The Commander of G.U.N. was in the base where over twenty G.U.N. Soldiers, Scientist and other personal lost their lives. The interesting fact is each victim had a different fatal wound. Now, at another base located hundreds of miles away, a night guard and two members of the cleaning crew were found with their eyes gouged out and their internal organs scattered about. As of this time both crimes are being treated as the same case, but no suspects have been named. We'll give you more when it comes up."

Shadow The Hedgehog was up to his neck in questions, paper work, and any possible leads. Being the experience G.U.N. agent he was, he was assigned this case while his partner Rouge was at the more gruesome crime scene. They were both looking through anything that might be of help and we coming up empty handed every time.

"I'm getting nothing in this end of the case. You?" Rouge asked over a phone.

"Same. We know the crimes happened at almost the exact time, so multiple people have to be involved." Shadow stated.

"I don't think this was some terrorist group. The crimes are far too sinister, and if you ask me a little too bloody for my taste."

"The last option I have here is the camera. Maybe if the storm didn't fry it, it might hold some secret to this." Shadow said.

"Anything from the boss?" Rouge asked

"No word yet. He's still not talking, but he saw something." Shadow said. "If he is indeed the only survivor he's gonna be able to point us in the right direction."

"I'll be sure to keep you posted."

"Same here, and Rouge….be careful."

"You too Shadow." The two agents ended their call, then Shadow went to find the security room where hopefully he would find any signs of what happened. After some time of searching and getting directions, the ultimate life form was able to find his destination. He ordered for the guy in charge of the tapes to come up.

"Which of these tapes are from last night?"

"Right there sir."

"Thank you. You're free to go." Shadow said to the employee. He powered up a television set, the video was in black and white and about five minutes into the tape he found nothing interesting yet, till the static began acting up. Around this time the storm was in full swing outside, then the power went out, but the cameras ran on backup energy in case such a thing ever happened. On the tape when the power came back on, Shadow got a full good view of the horror that was unleashed.

"Wait a minute….that couldn't be." On the screen Shadow got a good view of his suspect. Now he knew who to go after. "Rouge, I got a good lead. Im gonna follow up on it. What about on your end?"

"I got a good lead here." Over on her investigation Rouge was examining where the first victim, the red hedgehog fellow, was slaughtered. Whoever did this left one thing behind…..a small bloody clump of what appeared to be yellow orange fur? After asking an expert what species it came from, the expert labeled it as fox fur.

"Do we have enough for a warrant?" Shadow asked.

"I think we do. Over and out."

Sonic

In Station Square, the resident hero was in the middle of his morning run. It was Sonic's thing, and after the rough night he had, trying to calm Tails down during the bad storm, this is what he needed. Feel the air blowing right past him as he ran beyond the speed of sound. He didn't know where he was going, but he felt like he should go where ever the wind takes him. The wind was taking him to a high cliff overlooking the whole city.

"Man, look at that view." Sonic said to himself. "If it wasn't for Eggman trying to attack every chance he got, I could just stand up here all day."

"I'm afraid you won't be doing that." A voice said behind him. Glancing back, he saw the one and only Shadow standing behind him.

"Top of the morning Shads."

"Don't call me that."

"Ok Shads." Sonic and Shadow had a love hate friendship. Sonic loved to get under his skin, and Shadow hated it.

"This is a very serious matter." Shadow said.

"So why are you here then?" Sonic asked cocky like. Shadow looked him square in the eye.

"Just where were you last night?"

Tails

A few miles away in the Mystic Ruins the only two tailed fox on Mobius was beginning his day in his workshop. Today Tails was gonna do his favorite thing, and that was build whatever he could think of. He had yet to turn on the morning news, so he had no clue of the events of the previous night, or that he was in for a very bad day. Tails had just finished his breakfast when the sound of someone knocking on his door echoed throughout the workshop.

"Who would be knocking this early?" Tails went to answer his door, thinking maybe it was Sonic. "Can I help…." He stopped when he saw who was standing at his door.

"Why yes you can help me." Rouge said with her usual smile.

"Ro-Rouge? What a-ar-are yo-yo-you doing he-here?" Tails asked nervously.

"A little nervous? Don't worry, just answer a few questions." Rouge said, letting herself in. "Where were you last night?"

"At So-Sonic's hou-house. W-wh-why?" The albino bat sighed.

"Because I'm afraid you're under arrest."

Sonic

"Wait wait wait….you're arresting me?" Sonic asked in disbelief.

"Sonic over twenty government agents murdered, and our best piece of evidence points to you. We're not gonna charge you with anything yet, we just need you for questioning." Shadow explained.

"And let's say I wouldn't go quietly?" Sonic asked.

"Then we would have to do this the hard way."

Tails

"The hard way?" Tails asked Rouge. At that very moment sirens and police lights began flashing and blaring outside the kitsune's workshop. Tails peaked out the window and saw possibly a small army of G.U.N. Soldiers here for him.

"The hard way is we make you." Rouge said. Before Tails could respond, Rouge had him up against a wall stomach first, before proceeding to handcuff him. "This is just for questioning." She said, forcing the handcuffed fox out of the house.

Sonic

Sonic looked at the G.U.N. Soldiers surrounding him. Odds were there was no chance he could take them all, so he simply placed his hands in the air.

"Smart choice." Shadow pulled out a pair of handcuffs and placed them on Sonic.

So it looks like Sonic and Tails are in trouble. Is something more sinister behind this? Tune in later, but I leave you with this question. Best answer will get a shout out next chapter. In celebration of the Sonic/Mega Man Comic Crossover...tell me. Are you Team Sonic? Team Megaman? And why?

So please kept on reading, and Have A Nice Day!
