Chapter 3: Weekend, time to party!
Mystery woke up, groaning, "What time is it Dark?" He heard a muffled thud, looking, he saw Dark prop himself up and rub his head, "Why did you wake me up Mystery? I was having a good dream." "Well excuse me for breathing, what time is it?" Dark pulled himself onto his bed and looked at the clock, then he threw himself onto the bed and covered his head with a pillow, "What time is it?" "Three twenty is too early to wake up." Came Dark's muffled voice. Mystery laughed, "Well I guess it's partially Mom's fault for waking us up this early." Dark's growl was muffled, "Whatever." "Well I'm getting up." Said Mystery. Dark gave a very loud, very fake, snore in reply as Mystery headed for the bathroom.
After getting ready, Mystery headed downstairs and was met by Stealth and Maze. "Oh good morning." Said Maze, stretching as they headed down for the gym, Shadow was there, idly launching balls of chaos energy at targets. "Hey Dad, where's Mom?" Shadow smiled, "Good morning, your Mom went to set up a surprise for you, she called someone this morning. So she told me I have to watch over you guys while you train." Then Shadow tossed a ball of chaos energy at Mystery which Mystery cancelled out with a chaos spear. "Why did you do that Dad?" He asked, Shadow smirked, "I decided that instead of all that supposed "training" as your mother calls it, I think we should do a brawl, Stealth go and get Dark please." "Dad that might be a bad idea." "Why?" "Because he thinks that three twenty is too early a time to wake up." Shadow rolled his eyes.
"Stealth, Maze, go and tell Dark to get his ass down here, and if he doesn't, you are very free to use a chaos spear or a screw kick on him." The girls looked delighted to comply with their father's wishes, so they disappeared. Five seconds later they heard a yelp, Mystery winced, "Was it necessary to tell them they could do that Dad? Girls can be pretty evil sometimes." Shadow chuckled, "He has to learn to do what a girl tells him to or face the consequences, especially your girlfriend, wife, or sister." "Dad, you don't always listen to Mom, and you didn't always listen to her before you married either." Mystery pointed out. Shadow winced slightly, "Well lets just say she... made me suffer." He said, looking pointedly at some of the targets Rouge had ripped to shreds earlier that morning.
Mystery took the hint, "Oh." Dark came down rubbing his chest, "Dad! Why did you give them authorization to manhandle me!" "You mean WOMAN-handle you." Corrected Maze, then she and Stealth fell into a giggling fit. Dark glared mutinously at them, "You just might find a spider in your powder puff on Monday lady." Dark muttered darkly, (no pun intended).
Dark was groaning, sore, but Mystery was fine, "Come on Dark buck up." Said Stealth, Dark glared, then Shadow cut in, "You would have been fine after that if you had just come down, the girls wouldn't have attacked you then." Said Shadow, Dark refused to listen to reason and stormed ahead of them to the dining room. Then he yelped, "Whoa, he's yelped two times this morning, think he's going to have two kids?" Asked Stealth, they laughed. "WHAT THE HELL?! HELEN! What are you doing here?" Asked Maze, at precisely the same time Stealth yelled.
"Gee, I wonder if you're going to have a kid." Said Mystery, turning Stealth's joke on her. But then he walked over to Helen who was sitting at the table looking incredibly happy. "Hello Helen, had a good day so far?" He asked, addressing the fact she was smiling, "Oh yes!" Then she explained (Rouge was making breakfast) that she had begged her guardian to allow her to go over since she met them, but every time she'd said no, and threatened Helen with a beating, but then Rouge came over, gave her guardian a beating, and told her to allow Helen to come over, or she would alert the authorities about child abuse.
"Wow Mom, you're awesome." "Don't say that to soon." Warned Shadow, Rouge came out looking evil, "Hello dears, this is breakfast." "MOM!" She was giving them pork, "Didn't you remember?" She said sweetly, "It's reverse meal day." "NO!" Sobbed Dark, "I was looking forward to my sweet pancakes, and instead I get this cheap knock off!" He would have punched his meat, if Rouge wasn't carefully keeping an eye on him. Helen giggled, "You are really funny you know." Dark was too busy glaring at the pork on his plate to answer, "Well Dark is always unintentionally funny." Said Stealth, then she whispered in Helen's ear, the girl's eyes widened, "You did WHAT to wake him up?" More whispering, then giggling.
As soon as breakfast was done Rouge handed each of them a list. "Okay, everyone put a check mark beside what you would like to do." The list was as follows.
Shopping spree
Go to the beach
Target practice
Brawling
Go for a drive
Treasure hunting
GUN missions
Wreak havoc on the school grounds
Paint a vulgar word on Aunt Amy Rose's face
Clean your rooms
Mystery looked at Rouge who was happily ticking off some things on her list, then he raised an eyebrow to his Dad before saying, "Hey Mom, I thought you said you didn't hold a grudge against Amy ditching Shadow, and I also thought that wreaking havoc was something you forbid us to do, and aren't we too young to be doing GUN missions?"
"But I was doing them when I was a teenager, besides, it will be a marvelous adventure for you and you'll have employment as well for when you're done school." Maze shook her head. "Typical Mom, thinks of everything."
In the end, Helen had a very good day with them, she learned to her pleasant surprise that she had chaos abilities like they did, and her primary attack was chaos lotus. A very pretty name Rouge had said. For the first time ever, she had worn makeup, for the first time ever, she had gotten to choose what clothes she wanted. For the first time, she got to go to the beach to have fun. For the first time, she gave a boy a black eye, (that boy was Mystery, but he didn't mind) for the first time (your probably getting bored of that saying) she got to go on a drive for as long as she wanted to look at the country. For the first time, she had done an exciting mission for the government, for the first time, she had gone treasure hunting (a diamond was her treasure). For the first time, she actually used spray paint, (on the side of the school building and on the Principle's car) and for the first time, she painted a vulgar word on someone's face, (Amy's).
They never did the cleaning rooms. But Helen got to join them for dinner before going home. Before she left she hugged all of them and thanked them for the lovely day. "No problem sweetheart, we'll do it again soon." Said Rouge smiling. Helen smiled back, then kissed Mystery on the cheek before skipping off. Mystery held a hand to were she had kissed him, leaving some lip gloss in place of her lips, he started to blush. "Hmm.. a hawk and a hedgehog, I really want to see how this turns out." Said Shadow. Mystery went red when he realized what his Dad was implying. "Dad stop it! It's not as if she's my girlfriend!"
"Yet." They all laughed and went inside as Mystery's fur turned redder than Knuckles'.
