The story begins with the Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, Rouge, Silver, Blaze, Tails, Cosmo, Shadow and Maria taking a much needed vacation to the beach. It was a secluded beach so they were the only ones there. After all the fighting they've done they needed to have a little fun. They were all wearing their swimsuits except for Shadow and Sonic who weren't because they didn't want to go swimming.

Amy: "Yay. We're here"

Maria: "Well it was thanks to Shadow's chaos control that we got here fast" (she said while hugging one of his arms)

Shadow blushed a bit

Amy turned around and look towards Shadow

Amy: "Yeah I guess that's true. It's good that you always carry a Chaos Emerald with you, huh Shadow"

She smiled at him. He blushed a bit again

Silver: "This is great. This is just what we need after all the fighting"

He then put his arms around Blaze

Silver: "You know I hear that beaches can be very romantic, especially when the sun is setting"

Blaze moved his hands away from her, turned around and put her finger on his chest

Blaze: "Well looks like you're going to have to wait until sunset, lover boy" (she said while pushing him gently away from her with the finger she had her chest. She said it with a flirty attitude)

Silver watched her walk away paying close attention to her swimsuit

Sonic: "Looks like you struck out"

Silver: "Eh. She may be prude sometimes but I still love her" (He said while smiling love-struck)

Silver: "Don't worry. By this afternoon she will have turned over to the 'white side' if you catch my drift" (he said while nudging Sonic and winking)

Silver: "Hey Blaze, wait up"

Sonic looked at Silver while laughing to himself

Sonic: "I just hope she doesn't bury him in the sand"

Rouge: "Hey Knuckie. Want to go for a swim?" (She said with a flirty attitude)

Knuckles: "Uhh. No thanks. I'd rather just lay on the sand and sunbake"

Rouge: "Don't tell me the 'big tough Knuckles' is afraid of a little water"

Knuckles: "No! I'd just rather lie on the sand and relax"

Rouge: "And what? Get a tan? I think you're already to red for that"

Knuckles: "I just want to relax okay"

Rouge: "Okay no need to get angry"

Rouge started walking towards the water

Rouge: "I bet if we were at a crowded beach, you would come with me. I know how jealous you get when I'm around other guys"

She then winked at him. Knuckles blushed a lot. He then got a towel, put it on the ground and laid down. He noticed it was really sunny.

Knuckles: "Lucky I brought my shades"

He put them on and laid down.

Cosmo: "Tails you want to go swimming"

Tails: "Of course. Let's go"

He grabbed her hand and they ran towards the water. Amy was watching from afar.

Amy: (She sighed romantically) "They are so sweet for each other"

Sonic walked up behind her

Sonic: "What are you looking at Amy?"

Amy: "Oh. Hey Sonic. Nothing, just looking at how happy Tails and Cosmo are. They're so lucky"

Sonic grabbed Amy's shoulders

Sonic: "You can't be jealous. You do have me of course"

Amy turned around and grabbed Sonic's face

Amy: "And I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world"

They were about to kiss when

Maria: "Aaamy"

Amy and Sonic turned to see Maria running towards them

Maria: "Amy. Want to go swimming with me? Shadow doesn't want to"

Amy: "Sure. Sonic you fine by yourself"

Sonic: "Yeah I'll be fine Amy. You go have fun"

Amy: "Thanks Sonic"

She kissed him on the cheek and ran off with Maria

Sonic smiled while he rubbed his cheek. He then turned to see Shadow sitting by himself. Shadow saw Sonic looking at him and looked back. Sonic looked the other way with an angry look on his face. Sonic didn't know why but, even though he usually tries to befriend everybody, he just didn't like Shadow. There was something about him that always made Sonic just want to yell at him.

Shadow: "What is he looking at?"

Shadow leant against a tree and closed his eyes. Sonic did the same. (Even though they didn't want to admit it they have more in common then they think)

Everyone was having a nice and relaxing day. Sonic, Knuckles and Shadow were relaxing while everyone was having fun in the water. Silver looked over at Blaze and dove underwater. He then came up from under Blaze and lifted her onto his shoulders. Blaze blushed a lot

Blaze: "Silver! What are you doing?"

Silver: "Having a little fun"

Silver looked at Tails

Silver: "Hey Tails what do you say?"

Tails looked at him puzzled

Silver: "In the mood for a good ol' 'chicken fight' (For those of you that don't know what that means, it's when you put someone on top of your shoulders and someone does the same and the person on top of your shoulders fights with the other person. Google it if you still don't understand)

Tails: "Do you want to Cosmo?"

Cosmo: "I don't know what that is"

Tails decided to surprise her

Tails: "Okay. I'll show you"

He dove underwater and put Cosmo on his shoulders

Cosmo: "Ah! Tails"

Tails: "All you have to do is push Blaze off Silver. It's easy"

Cosmo looked at Blaze nervously

Blaze: "I'll go easy on you"

They then started 'chicken fighting'

Amy and Maria started yelling. Rouge wasn't really that interested and just relaxed on her back, floating on the water.

Amy & Maria: "Yeah come on go. You can do it"

Silver: "Come on Blaze push harder"

Blaze: "I don't want to hurt her"

Shadow heard the commotion and opened his eyes. He look to see them playing in the water. His eyes then turned to Maria. Just watching her being happy and smiling made him feel happy. He smiled a bit. His eyes then turned to Amy. He just kept looking at her, entranced by her beauty, her happiness, her smile. Amy then saw Shadow looking at her and she smiled at him. He blushed furiously, and then looked away quickly. Amy was a bit saddened by this but the 'chicken fight' quickly caught her attention again. Shadow shook his head.

Shadow: "Why can't I stop myself looking at her?"

Silver: "Come on Blaze you're so close"

As Blaze was about to win Silver stepped back and slipped, sending them both down.

Cosmo: "Tails. I did it"

Tails: "See. I told you it was easy"

Silver and Blaze then got up

Silver: "No fair. I slipped. Rematch"

Blaze: "Let it go"

Silver looked behind him

Blaze: "You're the one that tripped" (she said in an angry tone)

She then got up and walked away

Silver: "Blaze wait"

Amy: "I'm no love expert but I don't think she's going to the 'white side' any time soon".

Silver quickly ran after her

Silver: "Blaze wait. Come on it was an accident. I didn't mean to trip".

Tails lowered Cosmo down from his shoulders

Cosmo: "I didn't mean to make her mad".

Tails: "You didn't Cosmo. Don't worry she'll get over it".

Amy: "Yeah don't worry. Blaze is always like this. I bet she just realised she was having fun"

Everyone laughed

Amy: "I'm going to go to shore for a second. I'll be back"

Amy ran towards the beach. She went over to the Esky to get a drink. As she was drinking she noticed Shadow sitting by himself. She grabbed an extra drink and walked over to him.

Amy: "Shadow?"

Shadow opened his eyes to see Amy standing near him. He blushed at seeing her in her swimsuit. He quickly looked away.

Shadow: "Wh- what?" (He said still blushing)

Amy: "I brought you something to drink"

Shadow, now being able to control himself, turned to Amy and grabbed the can.

Shadow: "Thanks"

Amy considered sitting next to him but after all that had happened between them with the kissing, she knew that sitting next to him would just be awkward.

Amy: "You're welcome"

She smiled and walked away. She started walking towards her friends when she thought she saw something on some rocks. She ran over towards them. When she got there she saw a sign *Beware. Slippery rocks* Amy considered walking away but she couldn't shake the feeling that something was there. She put her can on the ground and started going towards the rocks. Back at the beach Maria was getting worried. Amy hadn't returned and she couldn't see Amy on the beach anywhere. She got out of the water and headed toward Shadow.

Maria: "Shadow?" (She said while shaking his shoulder)

Shadow: "Mmn"

He looked up to see Maria

Shadow: "What's wrong Maria?"

Maria: "It's Amy"

He sat up

Shadow: "What's wrong with her?"

Maria: "I haven't seen her for a while. She said she'd be gone for a bit but she hasn't come back into the water and I couldn't see her on the beach anywhere"

Shadow became quickly alarmed. He didn't know why but he was so worried. Shadow quickly stood up and looked around. He saw Sonic leaning next to a tree asleep. He was about to yell out to him when something caught his eye. He saw something gleaming in the distance. The same way Amy had went. He didn't know why but something told him to go over there. He quickly ran towards there

Maria: "Shadow where are you going. Shadow!"

Sonic heard Maria yelling. He opened eyes to see Maria calling out to Shadow. He ran over to Maria.

Sonic: "What's up with Shadow?"

Maria: "I don't know. I just told him that I hadn't seen Amy for a long time and he quickly ran over there"

Sonic: "Wait. What did you say about Amy?

Maria: "Amy said she'd be gone for a little bit but I haven't seen her for a while"

Sonic, worried, ran to where Shadow was going.

Sonic: "Could Shadow have done something to her?"

Back to Amy. Amy was walking very carefully over the rocks. The sign wasn't lying. They were slippery. Amy considered going back but she was close so she decided to keep on going. Shadow made it to the rocks. He saw the sign. He then walked forward and knocked over Amy's can. He saw the can and picked it up. He looked at it very closely. Shadow then flashbacked to when Amy had given him a drink

Shadow: "This is Amy's drink but she couldn't be dumb enough to go somewhere dangerous" He then thought about it. "Well it is Amy"

He went closer to the rocks and saw something in the distance. It looked like a person.

Shadow: "That's Amy"

Shadow then, without thinking started following Amy. The rocks were slippery but he was able to still walk very easily. Amy kept on walking and walking. She got to what caught her attention.

Amy: "It's just a piece of glass" (she said sadly) but I could've swore I saw something"

Sonic then reached to where Shadow had been. He saw the sign as well. He looked over at the rocks. They looked dangerous. Back to Shadow. Shadow saw Amy.

Shadow: "Amy!"

Amy heard his voice

Amy: "Shadow?"

She turned and saw him walking towards her.

Amy: "Shadow. What are you doing here?"

She then started walking towards Shadow

Shadow: "Wait"

Amy took one step and slipped.

Amy: "Ah!"

Amy fell straight into the ocean

Shadow: "Amy!"

Sonic heard Amy scream.

Sonic: "Amy"

He called out to her

Sonic: "Amy!"

He had a sick feeling in his stomach

Sonic: "I bet Shadow did something to her" (he said angrily)

Sonic then started walking over the rocks.

The scene switches back to Shadow. Without hesitating Shadow leaped in after her. He hit the water. He opened his eyes and saw Amy sinking. He quickly swam towards her. He grabbed her arm and pulled her next to him. He then swam up towards the surface.

Shadow: "AH!"

He tried swimming back towards the rocks but the waves were two strong. He couldn't hold Amy and swim at the same time. He knew what he had to do

Shadow: "CHAOS CONTROL"

A flash of yellow light engulfed them both. It worked. He was able to successfully teleport them both to safety. Shadow was carrying Amy in his hands bridal style. He looked down at Amy who was still unconscious. Shadow then knelt down on one knee.

Shadow: "Amy, Amy. Are you okay? Amy" (he said while shaking her)

Sonic: "I knew it"

Shadow looked up to see Sonic looking very angry.

Shadow: "What's he doing here?"

Sonic: "Let go of her right now"

Shadow: "What's your problem?"

Sonic: "What did you do to her?"

Shadow didn't really feel like it but he couldn't resist. He rose up with Amy still in his arms.

Shadow: "What do you think I did?" (He said with a smirk on his face)

Sonic: "Aargh"

Sonic ran towards Shadow. He was about to hit him when

Amy: "Mmn"

Sonic: "Amy?"

Amy: "Mmn"

Amy slowly opened her eyes.

Amy: "Shadow"

Sonic heard her voice and stopped

Shadow: "Amy"

He lowered her onto the ground. Sonic ran over to her.

Sonic: "Amy are you alright?"

Amy: "Sonic"

Sonic: "Amy what happened? What did Shadow do to you?"

Amy: "I don't remember" (she said while holding her head) "I was walking and then Shadow-"

She looked up and pointed at Shadow

Amy: "Shadow was there. He yelled out to me and I slipped and fell. That's all I remember"

Sonic: "You made her fall?"

Amy: "What? No. It was my fault. I was the one who slipped"

Sonic: "Don't defend him Amy"

Sonic went towards Shadow but Amy stopped him.

Amy: "Sonic! Now is not the time for fighting okay"

Sonic looked at Shadow angrily then looked at Amy

Sonic: "Whatever"

Shadow looked around and noticed the waves getting bigger.

Shadow: "We should leave"

Sonic: "Alright"

Sonic grabbed Amy's hand

Sonic: "Let's go"

Shadow: "You're an idiot"

Sonic quickly turned around.

Sonic: "What?"

Shadow: "It's too dangerous to go back the way we came. It would be safer to use Chaos Control"

Sonic knew he was right but he didn't want to be anywhere near Shadow, let alone teleport with him

Sonic: "I think I know what I'm doing"

He grabbed Amy's hand and started walking. Amy stopped and pulled her hand away.

Sonic: "Amy"

Amy: "Sorry Sonic but I have to agree with Shadow"

Sonic: "What?"

Shadow was surprised that she picked him instead of Sonic and smirked a bit at hearing this

Amy: "I'm sorry but he's right. It's much more safer to use Chaos Control than walk all the way back. I mean you saw what happened to me. You wouldn't want that to happen to me again would you?"

Sonic: "No but"

Amy: "No but's. Shadow could you teleport us please?"

Shadow: "Fine but you're going to have to come closer"

Amy: "Come on Sonic"

Sonic reluctantly walked towards him. Shadow looked at Sonic and Sonic gave him a dirty look.

Shadow: "I've had enough of him"

As he and Amy came closer Shadow grabbed Amy, pulled her closer towards him and pushed Sonic away

Sonic: "What are you doing?!"

Shadow: You wanna walk so much. Then go ahead"

Amy: "Shadow wait"

Shadow: "CHAOS"

Sonic: "No you don't"

Shadow: "CONTROL"

Sonic ran towards Shadow and grabbed him

Shadow: "Let go"

It was too late. A yellow flash engulfed all three of them and they teleported. After the flash disappeared Amy was able to open her eyes. Amy saw the Chaos Emerald fly off somewhere and Sonic falling to the ground.

Amy: "SONIC!"

Amy tried to move but noticed that Shadow was still holding her. To make matters worse he was unconscious.

Shadow: "Shadow. SHADOW!"

He wasn't waking up. Amy noticed them falling closer and closer to the ground. She braced herself for the impact

*BANG*


Amy and Shadow are lying unconscious on the ground. Amy slowly opened her eyes.

Amy: "Mmn"

She slowly lifted her head up and shook it while holding it.

Amy: "Where am I?" (She said while her eyesight is still blurry)

She looked over to see Shadow beside her, unconscious.

Amy: *gasp* "Shadow wake up" (She said while shaking him via the shoulder)

Shadow slowly opened his eyes. He lifted his head to see Amy.

Amy: "Shadow are you okay?"

Shadow: "I'm fine." (He said while shaking his head)

Amy: "Good"

She then gave him the biggest slap of his life. He touched his cheek and turned around to face her.

Amy: "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM!?" How could you do that?"

He continued looking at her, shocked. Nobody had ever hit him before like that. Nobody ever had the guts to.

Amy: "Answer me!"

If the circumstances were different Shadow would have told Amy off but he instead didn't say a word. He looked around while moving his hands on grass, searching for something.

Amy: "What are you doing?"

Shadow: "The Chaos Emerald. It isn't here."

Amy: "What?"

Shadow: "Looks like wherever we are, we can't go anywhere without it."

Amy: "Well that's just great. Look at what you did"

Shadow: "Don't blame me. It was his fau-"

Amy: "Don't you dare blame Sonic for this. This is your fault. You're the one pushed Sonic away; you're the one who used Chaos Control. You're the reason we're here" (She was really angrily)

Shadow scoffed, stood up and then started walking away.

Amy: "Where are you going?"

Shadow: "I'm going to look for the Chaos Emerald"

Amy: "How do you know where it is?"

Shadow: "I can sense it"

He started walking away

Amy: "Are you just going to leave me here"

Shadow: "I thought you were mad at me"

Amy: "I am but I can't stay here by myself"

Shadow: "Then hurry up"

Amy: "He's so smug" (she said to herself)

She got up and started walking with Shadow


2 Minutes Later

They were still walking when Amy remembered something or rather someone

Amy: "Sonic!"

Shadow turned and looked at Amy

Amy: "When we were falling I saw Sonic fly off somewhere. We have to find him"

Shadow: "Sonic is the least of our problems. Our main concern should be to find the Chaos Emerald"

Amy: "How could you say that? It was a long drop. Sonic could be in trouble"

Shadow: "He's not my problem. If you want you go find him"

Amy grabbed his arm

Shadow: "Shadow please". (Amy was near tears)

Seeing her face reminded him of Maria. Even though she was alive now he still remembered her face before he got sent to Earth. Amy had the same face.

Shadow: *sigh* "Ho- How about we look for the Chaos Emerald first then we go look for him"

Amy: "Thank you"

She smiled at him

Shadow blushed but he brushed it off

Shadow: "Come on. I sense the Chaos energy this way"

They started walking when they heard a voice.

?: "Property?"

Amy and Shadow turn around to see a man. He had brown orangey hair and hazel eyes. He had a green jewel atop his head and was wearing a light long sleeved tunic with a black cloak connected by a green and orange jewel. His right arm was blue and mechanical. He also had long pants and knee high laced up boots

Shadow: "What?"

?: "That girl. Who owns her?"

Amy: "Hey! I don't belong to anyone!"

?: "Then it's my lucky day".

His right arm started glowing

Shadow stood in front of Amy

Shadow: "Looks like I was right"

Amy looked at him confused

Amy: "About what?"

Shadow: "The Chaos Control must have teleported us to another dimension". (He whispered to her)

Amy: "Really?"

Shadow: "Look. I don't know what he's talking about, neither do I care but we should just play along (He whispered to her)

Amy: "Bu-"

Shadow: "She's mine"

?: "Really? Prove it"

Shadow stood their trying to think of a reason while not breaking his serious facial expression. Amy tried to think of a reason as well, then she noticed his wristband.

Amy: "Psst. Shadow. Our wristbands. They're the same"

Shadow lifted one of his fists in front of his face

Shadow: "Look. Our wristbands are the same"

It suddenly got quiet. The man looked at Shadow seriously trying to figure out if he's lying. Shadow looks back at him, not breaking face. Amy had a worried face.

Amy: "I wonder if he'll figure out Shadow's lying?"

?: "Bha. What bad luck"

The man lifted out his hand to shake Shadow's. Shadow reluctantly shook his hand

?: "Forgive me but you know how we can't waste any chances"

Shadow: "Mmn" (he said absolutely having no idea what he was talking about)

?: "It's a very pretty property"

Amy: "I'm not a property"

Shadow gently nudged her.

?: "Though she doesn't act like a property should"

Shadow: "Yeah she doesn't" (he said while glaring at her seriously)

?: "How would you and your property like to come to my palace"

Amy: "Pfft. Yeah right"

Shadow: "We have plans and we can't"

?: "Oh please I insist" Plus it wouldn't be wise to not accept my offer"

Shadow had a face of realisation.

Shadow: "He must be someone of power here. It wouldn't be smart to disobey him. I suppose we have time"

Amy: "What!"

?: "Excellent. Follow me."

The man started walking. Amy looked at Shadow with a ticked off look.

Shadow: "What?"

Amy: "Why did you accept?"

Shadow: "You didn't hear what he said did you?"

Amy: "Huh? What do you mean?"

"FLASHBACK"

?: "Oh please I insist" Plus it wouldn't be wise to not accept my offer"

"END FLASHBACK"

Shadow: "He said it wouldn't be wise to refuse his offer so that must mean he must be someone of power in this world and it wouldn't be smart to confront him"

Amy: "What are you scared off? (She said in a serious tone) You're the "ultimate lifeform" aren't you? (she said with a sarcastic tone)

Shadow: "I doubt he would be alone right now. I bet he has bodyguards somewhere following him and fighting is only going to create more problems. It's simpler and smarter to play along until he lets us leave then we can continue our search for the Chaos Emerald"

Amy: "Fine but I am not being nice to him. He's a jerk"

?: "Are you coming or not?"

Shadow: "Come on"

Shadow and Amy started following the man.


Someplace Else

Sonic is unconscious on the ground. He slowly opened his eyes.

Sonic: "Oh. What happened?" (He said while shaking and holding his head)

He sat up and noticed that he was in a meadow type place, surrounded by hills, bushes and trees.

Sonic: "Where am I?"

Sonic then remembered what happened

Sonic: "Amy. This is all Shadow's fault"

He banged his fist to the ground

Sonic: "I have to find her. Who knows what Shadow could be doing to her"


Shadow & Amy

?: "Here we are. My palace."

Shadow and Amy gazed at the palace. The palace did not look very modern. In fact it looked like a castle from medieval times

They walked towards the entrance.

Soldier 1: "State your na-. Oh it's you sir"

The soldier glanced behind the man and saw Shadow and Amy

Soldier 2: "Who are they?" (he said defensively)

?: "Lower your weapons. They are my guests"

Soldier 2: "Sorry sir"

The soldiers lowered their weapons letting them pass. As they walked in one of the soldiers wolf whistled at Amy. Shadow heard this and though he was angered, kept his calm and looked at Amy who was also angered.

Shadow: "Ignore them"

But Amy couldn't. She turned around

Amy: "Who do you think you are?"

The soldiers looked at her and raised their weapons. Shadow quickly grabbed Amy's arm

Amy: "Hey!" (she said angrily)

Shadow: "I told you we're not from here. Just put up with it until we leave" (He whispered angrily to her)

Amy: "That's easy for you to say. You're not the one being gawked at"

Shadow: "What. Do you think it's easy for me to see them looking at you that way?"

Shadow stopped, realising what he just said.

Amy: "What?" (Amy said shocked)

Shadow shook his head.

Shadow: "Nothing. It was nothing" (he said while blushing)

Shadow quickly walked away. Amy stood there for a while in disbelief then proceeded to follow him while keeping her distance.

Shadow: "I can't believe I just said that" (he thought while shaking his head)

Amy: "Why would Shadow say that?"

The man then clicked his fingers. A woman quickly showed up, kneeling in front of him.

Maid: "Yes"

?: "I want you to take this lovely lady with you and get her fitted in our best clothing"

Maid: "Yes sir. Ma'am if you would like to follow me"

Amy: "Are you nuts? I'm not going anywhere"

Shadow: "Amy it's just clothes. Don't worry about it. Go with her"

Amy looked at him angrily

Amy: "Can I talk with you alone?" (She said in an angry but quiet tone)

Shadow glanced at the man

?: "Fine but make it quick. I'm a very busy man"

Amy: "Perfect" (she said quickly)

Amy then dragged Shadow away.

Shadow: "Hey"

The man looked suspiciously then looked at his soldiers and nodded. They nodded back.

Shadow: "What's wrong?"

Amy: "What's wrong?" First I get called property, then I get whistled at and now you want me to go with a stranger and wear their clothing, and judging on what the maid was wearing, won't be good"

Shadow: "How many times do I have to tell you Amy?. This is not our world. Will you just do what he says?"

Amy: "What's wrong with you?"

Shadow: "What do you mean?"

Amy: "What do I mean? Look at you. You're Shadow. You're one of the strongest people in the world. You defeated Black Doom and lots of other enemies and now your bowing to one man. You're the type of person that doesn't take crap from nobody. Why are you being different now?"

He wanted to tell her but couldn't bring himself to do it

Shadow: "A-"

Amy: "No. (She put her hand in front of his face) You know what. It's fine. I'll go, alright. You clearly know more than me and I should trust in your opinion" (She said with a hesitant and submissive tone)

Shadow, knowing Amy, was surprised that she gave up that quickly and didn't yell at him more. Amy walked away and went towards the maid.

Amy: "I'll go now"

Maid: "Okay, follow me"

Amy walked off with the maid. Amy looked behind her shoulder to see Shadow walking towards the man. As soon as Shadow's eyes locked with hers she quickly looked away. Shadow saw the tears in her eyes.

Amy: *sniff* "Jerk" *sniff*

?: "Is everything okay?"

Shadow: "Yes" (Shadow said feeling like crap)

The guy put his hand on Shadow's shoulder

?: "Properties huh. Always a pain in the a-"

Shadow moved away from him.

Shadow: "You clearly sent Amy away for a reason, not just for clothes. What do you want?"

?: "Of course. How rude of me. If you'll come this way"

The man then walked away. Shadow started following him and then turned around looking at where Amy went.

?: "Something wrong?"

Shadow: "No"

He then followed the man to his room.


The Man's Room

The man and Shadow reached his room. There were soldiers in front of his door

?: "Lower your weapons"

Soldiers: "Yes sir"

They lowered their weapons letting them pass. Shadow entered his room. The room didn't match the outside. It was rather modern and had a Romanian look to it.

?: "Please have a seat"

The man made a hand gesture, calling his maid to him.

Maid: "Yes sir"

?: "Bring us some wine"

Maid: "Yes"

The maid brought two cups of wine and put them on the coffee table. The man picked one up and took a sip. Shadow picked the other up but didn't take a sip.

?: "Your property is quite peculiar"

Shadow raised his eyebrow

?: "She doesn't behave like a property should. She is childish and rebellious. What do you seen in her?"

Shadow: "She is not usually like that"

?: Really? That's not the impression I got"

Shadow: "She doesn't like other men and always puts up a wall between herself and strangers"

?: "Whatever you say. You are her master"

Shadow: "Mmn"

Shadow was about to take a sip of wine when

?: "Outsider…"

Shadow looked at him

?: "Sell her to me"

Shadow: "Is he serious?"

Shadow stood up and put his cup on the table

Shadow: "No deal. Forgive us for the trouble. I'll go get her and we'll leave"

Shadow started walking towards the door. He opened it and the soldiers were there blocking Shadow's path.

?: "Let him pass"

The soldiers lowered their weapons. Shadow started walking away

?: "He's a liar. Everyone has a price"

Shadow walked to where Amy was. He was about to open the door when a maid came out.

Maid: "Oh hello sir"

Shadow: "Where is Amy?"

Maid: "She is still getting dressed"

The maid walked away. Shadow knocked on the door three times

Shadow: "Amy are you alright?"

Amy heard Shadow's voice. She was still mad at him.

Amy: "Yeah I'm fine" (she yelled out) Not like you care anyway (she said under her breath) You can come in now"

Shadow opened the door.

Shadow: "Okay look I figured out what going on here. Men buy wo- (He said while opening the door and not paying attention to Amy)

He looked up to see Amy in quite a revealing outfit. She is wearing a long white dress cut off at the sides, white boots and a white headband. All have blue gems on them. She still had her white gloves and gold wristbands. He was blushing a lot. Amy saw him looking.

Amy: "What are you looking at?" (She said in an angry tone)

Shadow: "Wha- what are you wearing?" (He said while still blushing and looking away)

Amy: "Oh you like it?" (She says in a sarcastic manner) IT'S THE CLOTHES THEY GAVE ME!

Shadow: "Stop complaining. It's not that bad"

Amy: "Are you serious?" You're the one who said "Don't worry it's just clothes. It's nothing" Well now look what I have to walk around in"

Shadow was still blushing and gulping. Amy noticed

Amy: "Keep on staring and I'll knock you all the way back to Earth, got it"

Shadow shook his head

Shadow: "Okay look I've figured it out. In this world girls are sold as merchandise and men own them".

Amy: "How do you know that?"

Shadow: "That guy asked me to sell you to him"

Amy: "Oh he did, did he then I'm going to have a little word with him"

Amy stared walking towards the door but Shadow grabbed her arm

Shadow: "Don't. Let's just leave"

Amy pulled her arm away from Shadow

Amy: "Fine"

Amy and Shadow start walking towards the exit until they heard a familiar voice

?: "Leaving so soon?"

Shadow grabbed Amy and put her behind him

Shadow: "Yes"

Shadow noticed two soldiers blocking the exit and slowly creeping up behind him

?: "Well you see I'm afraid I can't allow that"

Amy noticed the soldiers sneaking up from behind and turned around standing in a fighting stance.

?: "Do you think I'm stupid! I know you're not from here and the girl isn't yours!"

One of the soldiers charged for Shadow. Shadow stopped the guard's fist by grabbing it

Soldier: "Nngh"

Shadow: "Pathetic"

Shadow punched the guard in the face

?: "You fool. The only reason I brought you to my palace was to get the girl"

Amy: "Well if that's it. (She said with a smirk on her face) COME AND GET ME!"

Amy threw a punch towards the man but he caught her arm.

?: "A pink-haired girl is a very unique possession in my world"

Amy looked at him with a very angry expression.

Amy: "For the last time, I AM NOT A PROPERTY"

Amy jumped and kicked him square in the face. He was knocked back a bit but recovered. He wiped his mouth

?: Pink and a rebel…

Amy had a worried face

?: "I like that very much"

He grabbed Amy's arm and twisted it behind her back

Amy: "AH!"

Shadow heard Amy's scream and turned around. The man brought Amy closer to him and smelt her

?: "You smell just like a flower. A rose"

Amy: "Alright that is it!"

Amy summoned her hammer and hit him straight in the face, sending him flying. Shadow stood next to Amy.

Shadow: "Impressive"

Amy turned and smiled back

Amy: "Thanks"

From behind the man got up from being hit

?: "You will learn…"

Shadow saw the man get up

Shadow: "Amy!"

Amy: "OH!"

The man raised his right arm

?: "to BEHAVE"

The man targeted Amy with the device on his arm, sending a beam towards her. Amy, scared, tried to block herself from the oncoming attack. The beam got closer. Amy braced herself but she didn't feel it hit her. She opened her eyes to see Shadow standing in front of her.

Amy: "Shadow!"

Shadow blocked the attack and batted it away like it was nothing.

Shadow: "Are you okay?"

Amy stood there, still not believing what happened

Amy: "Ye- Yeah. I'm fine"

Shadow: "Good"

?: "Grr"

Shadow stared at the man

Shadow: "You. We're going to leave now and if you are smart you wouldn't try to follow us"

Amy then picked up Amy bridal style and ran away

The man looked on, watching him run away


Someplace Else

Shadow was still running with Amy. He spotted a nice spot to stop. He stopped and put Amy down

Shadow: "This seems like a safe place"

He looked at Amy

Shadow: "Are you alright?"

Amy was still blushing from before

Amy: "Ye-Yes. I'm fine. What abou-"

Shadow: "Good"

Shadow looked at Amy for a second then fainted on top of her.

Amy: "Shadow!"

She grabbed him by the shoulders and lowered him on her lap.

Amy: "Shadow! Get up. Come on. (She said near tears)

She turned him around so he was on his back

Amy: "Shadow"


Later

Shadow was lying on the ground resting, still unconscious. Amy was sitting up looking at him

Amy: "Get better Shadow". (She said while smiling at him). Looks like until he wakes up I'm going to have keep watch".

Several Minutes Later

Amy started to get tired. She was trying to keep herself awake

Amy: "I don't know how much longer I can keep this up. I'm so tired"

Amy tried her hardest but she couldn't keep her eyes open. Her eyes closed and she fell next to Shadow


Later

Shadow slowly opened his eyes.

Shadow: "Ah. My head"

He turned over to see Amy sleeping next to him

Shadow: "Amy?"

Shadow then sat up and looked around him. It was really late. The sun was setting.

Shadow: "I wonder how long I was out for"

He looked down at Amy.

Shadow: "I hate to do this but we haven't got time for lying around"

He shook Amy by the shoulder

Shadow: "Amy. Amy. Come on wake up"

Amy: "Mmn"

Shadow: "Amy"

Amy: "Mmn. Five more minutes"

Shadow: *sigh* "Amy"

Amy slowly opened her eyes to see Shadow

Amy: "Shadow? (she said still tired) SHADOW!

She got up and quickly and hugged him

Amy: "You're okay"

Shadow didn't hug back. He just stayed still, surprised by her sudden action. Amy realised what she was doing and quickly pulled away.

Amy: "Sorry" (she said while blushing and putting her hair behind her ear)

Shadow looked at her blushing.

Amy: "So, you're okay"

Shadow came back to reality.

Shadow: "Ye- yeah. Why shouldn't I be?"

Amy: "What do you mean? You fainted"

Shadow: "I did?"

Amy: "Yeah"

Shadow: "Oh"

Amy: "Gonna tell me why"

Shadow knew but he didn't want to tell her.

Shadow: "I don't know"

Amy: "Mmph. Yeah right" (she said under her breath)

Amy: "So. How are you feeling?"

Shadow: "I'm fine"

Amy: "I'm happy you're okay"

Shadow blushed a bit at this smiled but then a sad look swept over her face

Amy: "Sorry"

Shadow looked puzzled

Shadow: "For what?"

Amy: "I tried to stay awake so I could keep watch while you were unconscious but I fell asleep"

Shadow: "So?"

Amy looked at him puzzled

Shadow: "You fell asleep. You were tired. It's nothing to be sorry about"

Amy: "Yeah but what if that guy found us and kidnapped us. It would've been my fault because I was asleep"

Shadow: "Well it wouldn't have mattered if you were awake anyway. You wouldn't have been able to take them all on"

Amy looked at him angrily

Amy: "What do you mean by that?"

Shadow looked at her, not understanding why she was mad

Shadow: "I mean that you wouldn't have been strong enough to take him and his soldiers"

Amy: "And how do you know that? I handled myself pretty good back at the palace"

Shadow: "Not really. I mean you were complaining and yelling most of the time and when that guy attacked you I had to step in and defend you"

Amy: "Well I only "complained" most of the time because I wasn't exactly treated with respect aand I didn't ask you to defend me" (She said while yelling)

Shadow: "Would you have rather I didn't"

Amy: "No but I could've helped myself"

Shadow started to get annoyed

Shadow: "Fine. Then next time I won't help you"

Amy had enough. She stood up

Amy: "You're a jerk. I don't know what Maria sees in you"

Shadow was visibly shocked by this remark. Amy started walking away

Shadow: "Where are you going?"

Amy: "I'm going to look for the Chaos Emerald all by myself since I seem to be a bother to you"

Shadow: "That's stupid. You can't even sense it"

Amy: "I don't care. (She said while throwing her arms up in the air) It's better than hanging around with you"

Shadow: *sigh*

Shadow rolled his eyes

Shadow: "Amy. Amy wait"

Amy ignored him and kept on walking.

Shadow: *sigh*. "Maybe what I said was insensitive"

Shadow got up and ran after Amy. He caught up to her and grabbed her arm

Shadow: "Amy wait"

Amy turned around and looked at him

Amy: "What?"

Shadow: "So- Sorry. I realised what I said might have come off as rude"

Amy: "Might?" (she said while crossing her arms)

Shadow: "Okay. Did. I didn't mean to say you were weak"

Amy: "Then what did you mean?"

Shadow: "I meant that after what happened last time, that guy maybe would've got the upper hand on you like he did before. Who knows what would've happened if that blast hit you"

Amy: "Well I guess you're right. I accept your apology (she said in a smug tone) I think that's the first time I've actually heard you apologise" (she said in a teasing manner)

Shadow blushed a bit

Shadow: "Yeah well don't get used to it. I only said it because I realised I was wrong (he said while crossing his arms)

Amy: "Wowww! Two for two. I'm starting to think this dimension is messing with your head"

Shadow: "Well it's messing with something" (he said under his breath)

Amy: "What?"

Shadow: "Nothing. Come on lets go. We still have a Chaos Emerald to find"

Amy: "Onward to adventure"

Shadow looked at Amy with a weird look

Amy: "What?"

Shadow: "Really?"

Amy: "To daggy?"

Shadow: "Yeah"

Amy: "Then what do you suggest?"

Shadow: "Why are you asking me?"

Amy: "Well you think mine's daggy so let's see if you can come up with one"

Shadow: "I'll think I'll pass"

Amy: "No come on. I want to hear it"

Amy and Shadow continue arguing about it while walking into the sunset.
