Blood And Love: Shadet

Chapter 1 (but really 2)

O-O

"For the last time, Rose, I am NOT Sonic!" bellows an angry midnight hedgehog, currently trapped in a suffocating bear hug, given to him by a pink fangirlic female.

"Hm? Oh, I'm sorry, Shadow!" the pink furred hedgehog apologizes, releasing her iron grip on the gasping black male on his knees, as she turns around. "Oh, where is that boy off to?" she asks aloud, mostly to herself, as she takes off for a certain yellow kitsune's house.

" * cough cough* It's alright. Don't ask me how I feel about being attacked or anything," mutters none other than Shadow the Hedgehog himself, also using some very inappropriate words that shouldn't be repeated.

"Aw, you would've just muttered something under your breath and then walked off anyways. And Amy's just blind I believe," says a snow-white colored bat, landing next to the angry fur and rolling her eyes

"I hope you get your wings clipped someday, Rouge." the attacked ebony replies, crossing his arms and turning towards his female friend. "But considering the circumstances, you are correct." he finishes, before snorting and walking off to lay peacefully under a tree.

It was Tails' birthday today, and with much effort, everyone, even Shadow, had shown up.

Although the said ebony claims he was captured and dragged here, but everyone spotted him walking casually alongside Rouge and E-123 Omega.

"I'm always right, Shadsy. Don't you forget it," the bat winks, tapping his shoulder playfully before spreading her wings and taking off towards Knuckles, her favorite red colored echidna.

"That's not my name!" Shadow calls after her, growling after seeing her laugh and proceed to call him, Shadsy.

"Lighten up, Shads! It's my little bud's birthday and you're becoming a spoil sport over here!" laughs Mobious' world-renounced hero, Sonic the Hedgehog as he runs circles around his midnight twin, edging off the fact that he obviously wanted a race.

The one adressed as Shadow merely huffs, laying back on the tree he was currently sitting on and closing his eyes.

"Quiet yourself, Faker. I never would've come if Rouge hadn't forced me to." he mutters through closed teeth.

"Just what exactly did she do to drag you here anyways?" the cobalt hero inquires, crouching down in front of the ebony and grinning.

"It is nothing of your concern, hedgehog. Now go away before I shove you out of my way."

"She couldn't have done anything THAT bad! What did she do?"

"It's none of your concern I am telling you! Go play with foxboy."

"She took away your emerald, didn't she?"

"No."

"Was it your bed?"

"No!"

"Oh man, it was your guns wasn't it!"

"NO, HEDGEHOG!"

"...Oh my Gosh...she took away your innocence!"

"Oh GOD you are off! NEVER would I submit to that jewel-obsessed bat!"

"...Was it your gloves?"

"No."

Then what was it? Your wine or beer or something or what?"

"...No...It was my shoe."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Dude."

"Silence yourself and go play!" shouts a frustrated black hedgehog, pushing his blue (and hysterically laughing) counterpart off of his lap and walking towards one of his other female friends.

The girl turns around, brushing her blue hair out of her eyes and smiling up at him. "Shadow! I can't believe you're here! You- Rouge took your beer didn't she?" she asks, laughing as she hugs the ebony male.

"I'm not doing this again, Violet. She took my shoe and threatened to put it in her garbage compressor okay? The situation is dropped and I am leaving," Shadow grumbles, forcing the cobalt female to let go of him as he turns for the gate leading to the street.

"Aww, I didn't mean anything by it, Shadow. Why don't you stay for awhile and we can talk? I haven't seen you in a month!" she says, stepping in front of him, her bright green eyes sparkling with excitement.

They had always suddenly lightened up whenever Shadow was around, the male noticed as he became locked in her gaze for the slightest moment.

"...*sigh* It's been awhile, I will admit, but I'm afraid I have things I need to get done and over with." the hedgehog replies, side-stepping out of Violet's way to make for the gate again.

Again he was stopped.

"Well, why don't I help you? Your tasks could get done faster, and we could catch up while doing it." she offers, extending her hand. "C'mon, for the sake of some ol' friends?" she asks, smiling big, a friendly laugh following suit.

Shadow almost smiled as he slowly took her hand, making for the gate. "What is it I find so intriguing that it will always make me say 'yes' yo you?" he asks her, a smirk on his face, though it looked a lot less threatening than his usual glaring daggers and amused smirks

"Who knows? But I like it." his cobalt female friend purrs, trying to get a reaction from her friend as she instinctively wraps a cobalt arm with an ebony striped red

"Cut it, Violet. Rouge did that all the time until I shoved a wine cork in her loud-ass horn, supposedly called a 'mouth', on her." the ebony states, glaring at the girl trying very hard to her laughter

"You took a wine cork and stuffed it in Rouge's mouth? Tch, why? Hehehaaa!" Violet asks, busting into laughter as they approach a white gate leading to a beautiful walkway, curving up to a fantastic-looking household "Whoa! When you said you moved...you MOVED, Shadow!" she exclaims, kneeling down to feel the new blooming roses studded into the walkway. "These roses are beautiful! And...and rare! Never had I thought I'd come across even ONE of these!" she awes, her eyes ablaze with excitement.

"The Lilly-Orchias? They grow in abundances up on the ARK." the (much) less enthusiastic ebony shrugs, stepping past her to the door and pulling his keys out of his (seemingly never ending) quills. "If you're so fascinated with them, I can take you up to the ARK and you can take some home." he continues, thought only wanting her to move because of the few people starting to stare.

"Really? Oh Shadow that would be wonderful! And...suprisingly nice of you, I have to admit." Violet says, walking up to him and smiling brightly, watching the door open as she gapes in absolute awe. "...This...this is YOUR place?" she gawks, a little afraid to step inside as not to ruin the beauty of everything

"Yes. If you find a problem with my housing choices-" the Ultamite Lifeform starts, before turning and having to use very much force to keep a straight face. "...Um...Why, pray tell, do you keep staring at me like that?" he inquires, slightly concerned for his friend

"It's just...how in the hell, is someone able to afford a beautiful household like this!" Violet gawks, walking inside with a bit of hesitation. "It's so huge! And beautiful! And...and beautiful! And huge!" the girl rambles, before being grabbed by the ebony and shooken a little bit.

"Violet. It's just a house. A big, fancy house. May we please continue?" Shadow sighs, letting go of the poor cobalt's shoulders

The girl nods silently, brushing a strand of hair out of her face, though groaning once it keeps falling back down.

Both her and (a frustrated) Shadow go to reach for it, only to connect hands and freeze.

Violet blushes, giggling a little as Shadow's muzzle turns the faintest pink. He clears his throat, turning away and vanishing into a room unknown to her at this point. She just sighs, smiling sheepishly.

"You comming?" he suddenly calls, Violet's hand flying to her heart in suprise

"I...*cough cough* yeah. I'm commin." she calls, following the black and red striped male into what seems to be a large indoor pool. "Wow...I take it you like to swim? Or is this your bathtub?" she jokes, chuckling a bit

"...Wierd. It's like you've been here before..." the ebony drifts off, removing his gloves

Violet stops her laughing, reaizing what just happened. "...I've been burned." she simply says, before suddenly being lifted up by Shadow and being carried. "Wha-Shadow? What are you doing?" she asks

"Well I need you to do something. But knowing you, I realize I have to approach it a different way." he replies, continuing to carry her away casually

"...Well that helped none!" the female replies, crossing her arms and staring at the ground

They enter yet another room, and Violet is tossed onto a bed, Shadow climbing on top of her.

"Take your shoes off." he says, taking off both his shoes and gloves, then taking her wrists

"Whoa Shadow! I like you hon, but oh wowthis is fast!" she exclaims, fear creeping up ther throat like no tomorrow, though she couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement. "We haven't even gone out yet! I barely know that much about you!" she continues

"What? Oh God, Violet no!" Shadow retracts, an appauled look written across his muzzle. "That isn't what I was doing at all! What the he-...oh wow...nevermind!" he sputters, shaking his head and clearing his throat again

"Wait what? Then why were you trying to stradle me?" she huffs, the twinge vanishing

"I needed to or I would've ended up hurting you." Shadow replies, gaining composure again

"Just what are you trying to do?" Violet demands, blushing slightly at the thought of being stradled by Shadow

"I'm trying to position you so I can fully get you to submit." Shadow explains, climbing back ontop of her again

"Submit! You're going to-"

"No! I meant relax! Submission doesn't exactly mean thatall the time y'know!" Shadow growls. "If you would stop being a pervert for two seconds, then I could explain to you why I need you to do this. Otherwise, I would look like a fool trying to do it myself when I don't need to, and I wouldn't be able to do it by myself." he says, his eyes closed in frustration

"Well, explain it all to me before I get too creeped out and file a restraining order against you!" Violet huffs, sitting up on the bed and crossing her arms

"Alright, Jesus!" the male exhasperates, glaring slightly at Violet. Though he couldn't say much because he sort of forced her into it. "What I'm trying to do is get you to relax as I take...more borrowyour ora in order to insert a bit of shani' , as it's called." he says. "Shani' stands for Space Nutrance. When we go up there, I don't want you throwing up everywhere or passing out."

"Being in space? For what?" she inquires, her ear pricking up in interest

"For when we go to the ARK to get your lilly-Orchias." Shadow finishes, his glare gone, but a look of boredom beheld in it's place

Violet pauses, a smile forming on her face. "So you weren't just trying to get me to move away from your flowers outside. You actually meant it?" she asks softly

Shadow nods silently, a half-smile on his muzzle. "Why would I lie? I'd have nothing to gain from it." he explains, gently pushing her chest as a sign to lay back down, gently slipping her shoes off

Violet doesn't object, falling back onto the fluffy pillows and looking up at Shadow. "Alright. Now what do i do?" she asks

"Just close your eyes and try to push all of your ora into your heart." the ebony replies, sitting on her stomache and holding her wrists with one hand. "Just keep calm while I take out the ora and replace it with shani'." he whispers into her ear, pacing a hand on her chest and closing his eyes, their foreheads touching.

Violet's heart-rate slows down, her breathing comming out soft and quiet as she lays her head against Shadow's. The warmth was pleasant to her.

Shadow had also slowed his heart-rate down, in perfect sync with Violet, subconsiously linking his fingers with hers, as if they were about to share a kiss. But they didn't. The soft fur of the female was comforting to Shadow, making him want more, but kept to his task in silence.

Outside, a giddy bat and a smirking blue hedgehog were peeking through the window.

"Shadow and Violet! Who would have guessed?" Rouge says, giggling with excitement for her ebony friend. "I never thought he would be able to pull it off! That smooth doggy!" she exhasperates

"Ol' Shads and V.? Impossible..." the blue speedster shakes his head. "He told me he never wanted a girl...that doesn't make sense. Because last time I checked, Rouge ol' gal, Shadow doesn't lie. Even to me." Sonic says to her

Rouge stops her happy dancing to look at him. "Now that you mention it...you're right. I tried going after him once, and he told me that he honestly wanted no one. But then what is he doing to Violet?" she asks, peeking through the window again. "It still looks like they're going to make-out." she says, squinting and huffing, turning to look back at Sonic

"Maybe it has something to do with chaos or whatever..." he shrugs. "Anyways, we better leave before Shadow catches us and blows us into the next century..." Sonic winks, taking off in a sonic boom with Rouge flying off towards her own home.

Back inside, Shadow had done what was needed, and opened his eyes to be trapped once again in the gaze of the cobalt fur lying underneath him.

They stayed like that for awhile. Hand in hand, head to head, breath to breath, stradler to stradled.

The scene was beautiful. Everything else seemed to fade into nothing, leaving Violet and Shadow in their own little world.

Violet slowly started to move her head closer to his, Shadow not objecting to any of it.

Shadow also started moving closer to her, catching the scent of candy corn and spice; Whereas Violet had scented lavender (probably from the Orchias) and pepper prenes.

Much to Violet's dismay though, she had to end the moment when she felt a sharp pain in her chest and her breath hitched. "G-ah! Shadow!" she sputters, wriggling around and trying to breathe correctly

Shadow's smile dissapears and he immediately gets off of the choking female, sitting her up and hugging her, patting her back and already knowing what was wrong. "Just cough, Violet. Just sit here and cough until you can breathe again." he says, completely serious. "Whatever you do, do NOT swallow the liquid you're emitting. Just cough, just cough." he reapeats

The ebony hedgehog had gotten too physical with her and inserted some of his own ora into her, and it was reacting negatively with her ora. She was poisoned, and needed to get it out before she passed out and became incurable.

Violet just coughs and coughs, trying desperately to breathe again. What had happened? She was perfectly relaxed, and suprisingly comfortable. She felt so safe with him. Though she did only just take notice of the energy flow becomming a little warmer for a split second. Did she do something to cause this?

Finally, after coughing for 20 minutes, and then puking everything else out, Violet had maintaned the strength to pull through and was currently laying on he bed, still panting a bit.

Shadow, who had currently left the room, walks in holding a tray with bandages and what looks like puke-in-a-bowl. He sits down, handing Violet the bowl and picks up the bandages, turning his back to her for a moment.

"What's this?" the female inquires with a sore throat (you can guess from what), spinning the purplish liquid around with the spoon that came with it.

"It's Nioplorine. It'll help with your throat. Don't worry, it isn't as bad as it looks." the ebony male replies, his back still turned (btw- Nioplorine is a random name I made up. [Nee-yo-ploor-eeen] )

The cobalt one just nods, filling her spoon up with some and plunging it into her mouth. Her throat immediately started to tingle and the taste was actually very sweet.

So she finished the soup-type medicine and placed it on the tray next to the two of them. "Shadow...what...exactly happened back there? Did I do something wrong?" she asks, concern in her dry voice

"It wasn't you...I lost my sense of control and inserted my own ora by accident. I am sorry. When you feel strong enough, I will take you home." the male replies quietly, placing the bandages back on the tray and standing up.

"Hey...what happened to your wrist, Shadow?" Violet asks, hesitantly extending her hand to touch his.

"It is nothing to worry yourself about, Violet. You just accidently scratched me when your breathing started to hitch, that's all." he answers, dismissing it with a wave of his (good) hand, before taking the tray and leaving the room temporarily.

Violet sighs, plopping down on the pillows and thinking of that experience.

She had felt so warm and happy with him, and yet, didn't know, or care, why.

It's been this way since the day we met...why? I know we're really good friends and all, but...why do I still get these exciting twinges every now-and-again?

The female just shoves it to the back of her mind. She'd think more about it later, when her throat wasn't on fire and when her head wasn't throbbing from having to puke.

Oh boy, was this going to be a long afternoon...
