Sometimes, life just wasn't fair. Sometimes, you have to take matters into your own hands and mold it to your wants… and needs. In his relatively short and dangerous life, Sonic hadn't asked for much.

However… his mind flickered to the image of a certain naïve hedgehog. However, the one thing he ever wanted more than anything was taken from him… and right from under his nose, none the less!

Silver, someone that he had always thought to be so naïve and innocent, had transformed into a wolf in sheep's clothing! Sonic wouldn't stand for this. Something that would allow him to achieve his goal had, almost literally, fallen into his lap… And Sonic wasn't about to let this opportunity get away from him.

Sonic stopped outside their room and plastered a smile onto his muzzle. He didn't want anyone to know that he was up to something and figure out the strange power their hot spring currently held. His smile waved a little at a sudden thought. How long would the hot spring work? Sonic didn't know much about the workings of these places, being afraid of water and all, but he was pretty sure that the staff would have to have some kind of draining system in place… And if they did and he was even a second too late on his plans, Shadow would be lost to him forever.

Sonic renewed his determination and strengthened his smile once more. His emerald eyes twinkled; he would just have to get started as soon as possible then.

He slowly slid open the door and stepped inside. Sonic turned around to reclose the door and took a look around the room once he was done. The door to his and Scourge's room was tightly shut, meaning the green hedgehog was probably inside. Sonic then looked towards the table in the living room and guessed Shadow and Silver had ordered room service since they were eating dinner together.

The ebony and ivory hedgehogs were sitting across from each other and Amy was nowhere in sight. Sonic sighed in relief; his roommates had probably kicked her out as soon as she had woken up.

With a slight spring in his step, Sonic walked over to the table and slid into the seat next to the ebony hedgehog. Ignoring the glare from Shadow, Sonic reached across the table and stole Silver's still full bowl of rice. Hiding his smirk behind the small bowl, Sonic dug into the ivory hedgehog's food.

However, Sonic's small victory was short lived as Silver grabbed the larger bowl of rice on the table and offered the cobalt hedgehog some more. Sonic swallowed a growl and, instead, smiled at his 'friend' and held out the empty rice bowl for more.

He then looked at the ebony hedgehog beside him. "Did anything interesting happen while I was gone?"

Shadow sighed and set his chopsticks on the table. "Your girlfriend had destroyed the living room in search of… a love potion? I swear, she needs to be put in a mental asylum." Shadows' ruby eyes locked onto Sonics' and he swore his heart was about to flutter out of his chest. "Silver and I had to throw her out before she started destroying furniture." A moment's pause, "Any ideas as to why she acted that way?"

Sonic shrugged and looked down; a small attempt to hide the blush on his face. "This is Amy we're talking about; since when has she ever made sense?"

Shadow looked away and back to his plate of food. "Good point," he muttered and started to eat his dinner again.

During Sonic and Shadow's conversation, Silver decided to keep quiet. When his cobalt friend had gotten back Sonic seemed… off? The ivory hedgehog, at first, had thought Sonic was just hungry since he had stolen his rice bowl and had started to eat it ravenously. However, that explanation was soon disproven when Sonic had taken a couple more helpings of rice from him and the off feeling remained. Actually, it only seemed to get worse when Sonic had started talking to Shadow…

Could Amy be the cause? Shadow and himself had thrown the pink hedgehog out quite a while ago… Could something have happened between the two of them outside of the room? The subject of Shadow and Sonic's conversation was Amy. It was a logical conclusion to think Amy was the cause of Sonic's sudden off feelings.

By the time Silver pulled himself out of his analysis, the three of them had lapped into an uncomfortable silence for several minutes. Silver looked to Sonic, to Shadow and then back to Sonic. Something was definitely up. Silver let a soft smile form on his face and set down his chopsticks on the table. "Are you feeling okay, Sonic?" Silver calmly asked his friend.

The ivory hedgehog was quite taken back when a scowl flashed across Sonic's face before being replaced by confusion. Silver quickly pushed the image of Sonic's scowling face out of his head; the cobalt hedgehog wouldn't scowl at him. Right?

"Why do you say that, Silv? I'm just fine," Sonic replied and popped one of Silver's sushi in his mouth, the very picture of 'fine'. However… the ivory hedgehog couldn't help but feel Sonic was anything but fine. And Sonic's next action only proved Silvers' suspicions of his cobalt friend. "Want to take a dip in the hot spring with me, Shadow?"

The ivory hedgehog swore his jaw hit the table. Shadow, meanwhile, was choking on his food, beyond surprised by Sonic's sudden question. Once the ebony hedgehog had cleared his windpipe, he stared at Sonic in pure shock. "You want to go into the hot spring and with me? Aren't you afraid of water?"

Sonic shrugged and brushed off Shadows' questions. "I thought it was about time I worked on getting over my fear of water."

The cobalt heroes' two other companions looked at him as if he had just grown a second head.

"What?" Sonic asked; acting as if Shadow and Silver's staring wasn't bothering him in the slightest. He popped another sushi in his mouth, "Well, Shads? You want to take a dip with me?"

Shadow growled at the nickname and glared at the cobalt hedgehog next to him. "No. And don't call me 'Shads'." Without another word, Shadow got out of his seat and to his and Silver's shared bedroom. The door slammed behind him, leaving Silver and Sonic alone at the dinner table.

Sonic turned away from his ivory companion and ate the food Shadow had left on his plate. Silver tapped the wooden table, nervous about the sudden awkward silence between them.

Silver couldn't handle the deadly silence any longer and stopped tapping the table. He looked up at the blue speed demon, "I'll go into the hot spring with you, Sonic. I may not be as strong as Shadow, but I can help if you started to freak out," Silver offered, waiting for his cobalt friend's answer.

Under the table, Sonic clenched his hands into fists and resisted the urge to glare at the ivory hedgehog across from him. Once he had forced himself to calm down, Sonic turned and smiled at Silver. "Thanks for the offer, Silv, but I would rather not."

"No, really, it's fine, Sonic," Silver said and jumped out of his seat. He grabbed Sonic by the hand and pulled him out of his seat. "It would be my pleasure to help you."

Sonic was surprised by the sudden attack that he didn't push the other off of him right away. They were already at the small hot spring by the time he regained his senses. "I said no, you bastard!" Sonic screamed and pushed Silver away from him… and right into the hot spring.

Silver yelped at the push Sonic gave him and splashed into the heated water of their small hot spring. Silver quickly shot his head out of the water and coughed out the water that had entered his lungs from the attack. He sat up in the hot spring and pulled himself, shivering, out of the pool.

Sonics' eyes widened; did it work? Silver wasn't showing any signs of the love potion and Sonic felt disappointment, not from Silver not falling in love with him, but that he was too late to get Shadow in the hot spring and gaining his love.

The cobalt hedgehog, however, was too busy thinking about whether the love potion had worked or not, that he did not see the sudden dark smirk crawl its way onto Silver's muzzle. While Sonic was still distracted, Silver worked his way over to the cobalt hedgehog wound his arms around Sonic's waist.

This action, however, did bring Sonic out of his thoughts and he stared at Silver in shock. The ivory hedgehog nuzzled into Sonic's neck and purred. "Oh, Sonic, I never noticed how nice you smelled before," Silver chuckled and his tail slightly wagged behind. "I'm sick of Shadow always topping in bed, how about doing it with me?"

Sonic shivered as Silver's warm breath hit his ear and gasped when the ivory hedgehog had decided to nibble at his collar bone. "G… get off, S… Silver," Sonic gasped and tried to wiggle out of telekinetic hedgehog's tight grasp.

"Hmmm, let me think about that…. Nope," Silver chuckled and licked Sonic on the cheek. The cobalt hedgehog squealed and Silver took that as his opportunity and pushed Sonic against the wall of their hotel room. Sonic squeezed his eyes shut tightly and, he hated to admit it, but he was actually enjoying the dominance that Silver had over him.

The ivory hedgehog moved his hands slowly up Sonic's lithe form and Sonic moaned at the feel. Silver smirked and smashed their lips together.

"What are you doing?!" A deep and horror filled voice yelled.

Silver took his lips off of Sonic's and they turned to find a beyond pissed Shadow the Hedgehog. "H… hey, S… shads," Sonic stuttered and mentally started to pray that Shadow wouldn't kill him for 'stealing' his boyfriend. I mean, it wasn't his fault Silver was in love with him!... Never mind, this never would have happened if he hadn't pushed Silver into the hot spring in the first place…

Shadow clenched his hands into fists and stomped over to the ivory and cobalt hedgehogs against the wall. He grabbed Silver by his back quills and pulled him away from Sonic.

Silver struggled in Shadow's tight grip, "Let me go! I hate it when you manhandle me like that!" He yelled and Shadow dropped him on his butt. Silver hissed slightly in pain and glared at his boyfriend. "What was that for?!"

Shadow growled, "I should be the one asking that; what were you doing making out with the Faker?" Silver went quiet and Shadow glared at his boyfriend. "Well?"

Silver looked away and sighed, "I want to break up."

Both Shadow and Sonics' eyes widened and the cobalt hedgehog mentally cheered; this might not be how he wanted it to go, but at least he had successfully broken Shadow and Silver up. "What do you mean 'break up'?" Shadow asked and Silver stood up.

Silver looked his former boyfriend in the eye, "Exactly what I meant; I want us to break up. I don't want to be your boyfriend anymore." The ivory hedgehog walked over and nuzzled Sonic's neck. "I want to be Sonic's boyfriend instead."

Both ebony and cobalt hedgehogs choked at Silvers' words; both of them for different reasons. Shadow in complete surprise and sadness; while Sonic was oddly… flattered at Silver's want to be his boyfriend.

However, Shadow's surprise and sadness quickly turned to something else; something much more violent. He turned in rage to the blue speed demon Silver was currently nuzzling and lightly pushed the ivory hedgehog away so he could grab Sonic roughly around the neck. "What did you do to him?!"

"Me?!" Sonic yelped as Shadow grabbed him from around the neck; the ebony hedgehogs' fingers tightening around his delicate windpipe, but not fully cutting off his much needed air supply. "I didn't do anything to him!" Sonic lied through his teeth. His heartbeat quickly racked against his rib cage and he could feel sweat running down his body in streams.

Shadow continued to glare at the cobalt hedgehog in his grasp and slowly started to tighten his grip around Sonic's neck. Sonic stared back, his eyes wide and his body shaking; not from fear, but from despair as he realized that the one he had loved for so long was the one about to kill him. Sonic, thankfully, had help from someone that, moments ago, he had hated with every fiber of his being.

"Stop it, Shadow!" Silver screamed and tried to pull Shadow away from Sonic by grabbing his arm. "This is why I want to leave! You always hurt people and get violent when you don't get your way!"

Shadow's eye twitched; he was at a standstill. Would he let go of Sonic and have Silver not completely hate him? Or would he happily snap Sonic's neck and have Silver despise him for the rest of his immortal life?

Shadow deeply growled and released Sonic from his death grip. He gave the hero of Mobius a 'this isn't even close to being over' glare and quickly Chaos Controlled away.

Sonic reached his hand up to massage the area that Shadow had roughly grabbed and stared at the place on the ground that the ebony hedgehog stood when he Chaos Controlled at in a mix of fear and sadness.

Silver came up from behind him and hugged him from the back. He felt the ivory hedgehog nuzzle into his neck again and the two of them stood in silence until Silver broke it. "Are you okay?" The telekinetic hedgehog whispered and tightened his hold on the blue speedster.

No… Sonic wept in his head as he blinked away the tears that were coming to his emerald eyes.

Me: I don't know about you guys, but I'm currently finding the dominate Silver very hot~ *Giggles*

Me: Hey! You wouldn't even still be here if it wasn't for fangirls demanding you to come back into the Sonic Series!
