Ok, it has been longer than I've been hoping for, but here is Ch.3. Oh, and thank you Rae Logan for coming up with the temporary names.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the Plot.
It was starting to get when they finally got back to the house with their visitors in tow. When they got inside they had to explain to Rouge what was going to happen. She sighed and welcomed them in. They all sat down to watch TV not knowing what else to do. Then to the two's surprise, another hedgehog walked in. The thing that surprised them was the fact that he looked identical to Mephiles, minus the torn ear and brighter sclera. They just stared at him for awhile, until he gave them a harsh glare. They quickly turned their attention back to the TV realizing this must be Dark. Then, everyone gasped as the male suddenly had a red aura glowing around him.
"W-w-what the?" he exclaimed as it suddenly left him and jumped at Dark and melted into him. "Uh." was all that he managed to say.
'Maybe these new guests are more trouble than we thought.' Shadow thought.
Later, after Rouge, Shadow, and Dark had gone to sleep. Mephiles had stayed up with their two visitors watching TV. He changed the channel to CSI.
"How about Gil and Sara?" Mephiles asked which startled the other two since he hadn't said anything in the past hour or so.
They simply replied with a "Huh?"
"I mean as names" he replied reminding them of being temporarily nameless.
They thought for a moment. "Well, I'm no detective, but I like it." 'Gil' said grinning at his joke.
"Me too" 'Sara' said.
"Then Gil and Sara it is" Mephiles announced smiling. "I'll tell the others in the morning." He stood up to leave.
"Hey, uh Meph?" Sara asked nervously.
"Yes?" he simply replied.
"Who is that Dark guy?"
"Long story."
"Why does he look like you?"
"Longer story"
"Well, we do have all night" Gil suggested.
Mephiles sighed. "Ok, the story you hear will shock you" he said with a creepy grin on his face.
By morning he had finished his story. They were of course astounded. He left out the parts about Soleanna so not to disturb them. He also tried to avoid the subject about the scepter and what Dark had made him do after he escaped.
"Wow…just…wow." Gil couldn't get the amazed look off his face.
"I would've snapped pretty early on." said Sara also amazed." So … Dark is part of your family now?"
"Yes, good choice on my part. Shadow doesn't completely trust him yet, but I think their growing on each other." Mephiles smirked. "Don't tell them I said this, but they got a lot in common."
"Do we now?" said two voices questioning from behind.
"Why didn't you tell me they were there?" he asked.
"You didn't ask. Gil simply stated.
Mephiles turned to see Shadow and Dark glaring angrily. Dark raised his hand ready to smack some "sense" into him, as he later put it. Before he could do it, he was shocked to see him hit himself on his pressure point and knock himself out.
Shadow glared at Dark. You taught him that.
"Well considering you gave him a concussion last time" Shadow winced. Dark smirked "I think he preferred this." he gestured to the unconccious form on the floor. Shadow was growling, but suddenly stopped and smirked. "Well if that is the reason, you double check."
"Huh? What do you..." THUMP. Shadow had hit him on his pressure point before he could finish. He was out before he hit the floor. At that moment Rouge walked and saw the two crystal hedgehogs on the floor and looked over to the now named Gil and Sara, who were pointing at Shadow. She glared at Shadow. Tape hoped past her looked at Dark on the floor and hissed at Shadow.
"What?" he simply asked as he crossed his arms.
"We need to do something about these anger issues." She sighed
Shadow simply gave a "hmph" as his reply.
Sorry it took so long. R&R please.
