Hey everyone its SSG Echidna again back with the next chapter of The Fast and the Furry. Sonic just got his ass beat by Shadow. And the Mona Lisa is toast. Now he is into Knuckles for a lot of money. How will he smooth talk his way out of this one? Stay tuned to find out.

Sonic and Knuckles pulled up to what looked like a Japanese casino. Once they stepped inside though, that was confirmed. There was a lot of lights and sounds like a casino should be. Knuckles, however, wasn't interested in the gambling. He lead Sonic to a back room. When they entered the room, Sonic flinched. Inside was Shadow, Nack, and a few other Mobians playing some kind of Japanese card game. Shadow saw Knuckles and smiled a bit. But as soon as he saw the azure hedgehog, his frown came right back. He motioned for the other two mobians to leave as him and Nack stayed. Shadow just glared at Sonic with his deep red eyes and motioned for Knuckles to sit down.

"Whats he doing here?" asked Shadow with a slight edge in his voice. Sonic could tell he didn't want him here.

"Paying me back for that crumpled beer can sitting in my garage." said Knuckles with a grin. His violet eyes saying a lot more to Shadow than Sonic would ever understand. Shadow understood.

"I hope he isn't driving" said Nack. Sonic looked at him, winked and shrugged his shoulders. Shadow and Knuckles went off to discuss business. Nack decided he would harass Sonic a bit more.

"OI!! Gaijin." he said. "When is your next race? I really want to be there."

Sonic smirked his trademark smirk at Nack. "Why not be in it?" Nack just laughed at him.

"So ready to lose another car, Knux?" Shadow said motioning to the game board.

"Hmph. I'm ready to take that '86 Corolla off your hands." said Knuckles.

"Ok, put up the '72 Skyline."

"Done"

"Ok then. Get blue boy out of here. We have more business to discuss."

Knuckles motioned for Sonic to wait outside. Sonic nodded and headed out the door, which closed behind them.

"Knuckles, your shipment is late" Shadow reminded him.

"Since when are you so worried about the details, Shadz. Relax, man. It'll be here." Knuckles assured him.

"Knux, when is the shipment arriving?"

"Come on man, take a chill pill. It'll get here. My word as the Guardian." Knuckles put his hand over his heart.

"So are we just gonna chit-chat or are we gonna play. Lets go!" Nack said impatiently and started up the game.

Sonic stood outside and found a pay phone. He figured Uncle Chuck was worried about him so he decided he would call him and come up with a story.

"Hey, Unk. Its Sonic. I had to stay after school for some extra curriculars." it was at this time Sonic noticed something pink walking his way. "So I will be home a little later. Bye!"

Sonic hung the phone up and faced the little pink hedgehog.

"Amy Rose are you following me?" he asked.

"What are you doing here, Sonic?" she wondered.

"Oh I thought I would stop by and ask you boyfriend for some drifting lessons."

"Sonic, trust me. You don't want to be a part of this world."

"Its good enough for you, isn't it?" Amy got a little defensive.

"Since when do you know so much about me?" she calmly said. Sonic thought he would take a stab at the dark

"Lemme guess. You were an army brat that moved around a lot. Momma and Daddy were never home. So you walked around pissed off all the time. And now you've found your family with these drift nuts." Sonic smiled thinking he got it right. Amy just looked at him

"Zero for one, Blue Boy." she told him as she walked off. Just then, Knuckles came out of the casino/storage room. He had heard the last part of the conversation. He just smirked at Sonic.

"Why can't you get yourself a nice local chick like the rest of the Americans around here?" said Knuckles. Sonic just shrugged and they got in the RX-7 and drove off to Knuckles' workshop. As they drove, the song Mamacita was playing in the car's stereo system. They bobbed their heads to the music in relative silence til Sonic spoke up.

"Everything ok back there?"

"Don't worry man, I can handle Shadow."

"I thought he's Yakuza." Sonic said. Knuckles kinda grinned

"His uncle is Yakuza. He's just playing gangsta in his little storage room. But I do need him. He keeps Uncle Robotnik from poking around too much." that was the first time Sonic had heard Shadow's uncle's name. He decided he would ask Knuckles a few things since he seemed to be in the question answering mood tonight.

"So, Knuckles, have you raced Shadow?"

"Man, whats the point of a race?" Knuckles both asked and told him.

"To prove I am better that him!!" Sonic said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"All it proves is you're faster. If I was gonna race it would have to be for something important, or else why do it at all?"

"Well, if thats the case, why are you letting me race?" Knuckles laughed at his answer for this one.

"Cause you're Shadz Kryptonite." they both shared a laugh and continued driving. All of the sudden, a blue Nissan Skyline went ripping past Sonic and Knuckles. They saw him and scoffed. Sonic looked at the red echidna and he gave Sonic a nod. Sonic then flipped a switch and pushed in the clutch and gas. The revs on the engine went into the redline as he pushed two buttons on the steering wheel. He then let off of the clutch and the NOS ignited within the engine, pushing the car well above 150 KPH(i don't know how fast that is in MPH.) Sonic and Knuckles were blown back into the seat as they blew past the Skyline at almost 200 KPH. Sonic kept his foot planted as they rounded a corner. All of the sudden, Sonic saw a sight all to familiar to him. That classic white and blue paint job with the red and blue lights. 2 mobians we're sitting in the front seat with one holding a radar gun.

"Oh shit!" said Sonic as they sped past the cop. One of the mobians showed the gun to the other. It read 197 KPH. They knew there was no chance of catching this guy and they let him go. Sonic looked back at them to see them still there. He was puzzled. Knuckles was laughing.

"What the fuck just happened?" Sonic asked the Guardian.

"Police cars here are only factory-tuned. If you can do better than 180 K they can't catch you so they don't even try!" Sonic started to laugh too.

"You know something. I'm beginning to like this country already." He and Knuckles then sped off into the city to Knuckles' garage.

Sonic and Knuckles pulled into an alleyway. In the alley there were a few tuners and bikes parked. Sonic parked the car and it idled powerfully. He shut off the engine and he and Knuckles stepped out of the car. The duo then walked into a door. Sonic heard light Japanese disco music. He and Knuckles stepped in the door and the music got louder. Knuckles saw someone he new and planned catching up later. He then motioned Sonic to follow him into another door. They rounded a corner and Knuckles saw something.

"Hey hey now, easy ladies." said the red one as he and Sonic passed by 2 mobian females getting 'acquainted' with each other. Sonic stared at them until Knuckles came over and pulled him into the next room. Knuckles was immediately greeted by a loud shout for him walking in. Sonic recognized a few people and while he was looking around, a familiar yellow kitsune grabbed him around the shoulder.

"Whats up Sonic!" yelled Tails over the music, which was Hey Mami, You Sexy!

"All these girls, Tails they look like..." he was cut off with Tails finishing his sentence for him and began to explain some things.

"Models? Listen, this place is the fashion capitol on this side of Mobius. Now imagine you have been posing all day. Thats hard work. On top of that you get tired. You wanna go have some fun, but you can't cause you don't know no one. So what do you do?" Tails asked him. Sonic shrugged.

"Man you talk to the little dude that makes you laugh." Sonic tilted his head toward the kitsune, as if to say 'you?' Tails nodded and went off on his own to sell some Snickers to some unsuspecting sucker. Knuckles then called out to Sonic to follow him through another door. Sonic obliged and was amazed at what he saw. The garage was better than he dreamed it would be. He looked around and saw a few very nice tuners, a few which stood out, like a motorcycle powered by pure NOS, and a Saleen S7. He kept walking around til he was stopped in one spot. Something told him to stop here and look. Then Knuckles called out to him again.

"The red Evo's yours." said Knuckles. Sonic looked around for a red Evo. He looked behind him and saw a 2006 APR Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII GSR. He could tell some major mods had been done to this car. Sonic still didn't understand why Knux was giving him a car when he just completely destroyed the last car he lent him.

"What do you mean by 'its mine'?" Sonic said, perplexed.

"C'mon man, are you really that dense. Your representing me now. What do you think, I am gonna let you roll in a Hyundai?" Knuckles told him. Sonic looked back at the car and smirked. If this Evo could feel anything, it would be terror, for it knew what it was about to go through.

Oh man, that Evo is done for. What has Knuckles done!! Will it even survive the night? I will update as soon as possible. Please read and review. Your friend.
