Chapter 3

Shadow's P.O.V

"J-Juliette..." Juliette said after a few attempts. We were practicing again with her speech. She is a really fast learner and I smile. Smile I tell you and I don't normally smile.

"Good. Now my name." I say.

"S-Shadow...Shadow!" She says smiling, happy that she could say my name.

"Alright.. Do you want anything to eat?" I ask her.

I heard her stomach growl and smirk. "I take that as a 'yes'".

I had some chicken and potatoes with some beef teriyaki that I had left over from lunch.

I gave her some of the chicken and potatoes and have her sit at the table. I had taught her to eat earlier, so she should be all set.

She takes the fork and takes a bite of the chicken. The face she made was priceless though.

"You don't like the chicken?" I ask, trying not laugh at the face she's making.

She slowly swallowed the chicken and then says,"Chicken..Don't like.."

She doesn't like chicken so I'll have to keep that in mind. "You don't have to eat it if you don't want to." I tell her.

She then eats the potatoes and smiles. Safe to assume she likes mashed potatoes because she ate those in 10 seconds flat.

I wonder if she likes chinese food.. I gave her a piece of the teriyaki and she bites it. After swallowing, she says,"That's good. Yum."

She yawns and I could tell she was tired. So after we ate, we went upstairs and I showed her her room.

"I'll be across the hall if you need me okay?"

She nods her head and goes into the guest room. It's been a long day for the both of us.

I think about how Doctor Hikari said she wasn't a normal hedgehog-human-netnavi hybrid. That she would have a strange personality.

But either way, I love her just the same.

I hate to admit it, but I love her. Her laugh, her immaturity,and in her human form she has really freaking cute dimples and blue eyes along with her short dirty blonde hair.

Megaman had told me that if she were to become dangerous with the dark energy in her, they'd have to kill her.

Even if she did, I wouldn't let them lay a hand on her.

I'd be willing to die for her and that's alot to say for someone I just met.

I love you Juliette and will always protect you were my last thoughts before I drifted asleep.
