Chapter 4

Shadow was lazing about in the park, there was big open patches of grass and lot's of tree's and a big playground, he was hiding bewteen the tree's so that people couldn't see him, as they often mistook him for Sonic, which happened often and it really annoyed him. Shadow had almost drifted of to sleep when he heard the sound of wings flapping coming towards him.

He cocked one eye open as Rouge had landed on the ground, he sat up, wondering why the bat had come back so early, "Rouge, I thought you were going to bother, Knucklehead?" he said as he jumped in front of Rouge.

Rouge her hands on her hips "well I was, but I saw Knuckles going to that little foxy's house along with Pinke."

Shadow raised his eyebrow "whose Pinke?"

"You know Amy," Rouge said while shrugging.

"You mean Rose, why was he doing that?" Shadow asked with interested and also wondered if Rouge was jealous.

"You ever heard of an eigth emerald Shadow?" Rouge asked a little excited.

Shadow furrowed his brow "there's no such thing as an eigth emerald, cause there's only seven."

"Not from what I've heard, and Amy seems to know quite a lot about it," Rouge said hoping Shadow would agree to go since she wanted to see Knuckles.

"Why, would she know about an eigth emerald?" Shadow wondered.

"Beats me, but if we follow, we'll find out..whatdya say Shadow? There also heading to The island of Crystal's to look for it."

"How do we get there, though?" Shadow asked as Omega the robot had landed beside them.

"Island is not to far from here, just over the ocean," Omega said in a deep robot vocie.

Rouge glanced at the robot beside her, "How do you know that?"

"Old master had once been there before."

Shadow grunted, "I guess I could use chaos control to get's us there," the hedgehog reached into his quills and said the two words and he, Rouge and Omega where engulfed in the light and they vanished.

Meanwhile the yellow hedgehog was pacing back and fourth he and his partner were still out in the Mystic Ruins, Zark hadn't came back yet, "what is up with that hedgehog? He's gonna get us both killed by that mad hedgehog! And I don't plan on letting that happen, well not me anyway," As he ranted he didn't see black smoke forming beside him.

Mephills came out of the smoke that had disappeared, he stood and watched the yellow continuing to rant until he heard the word mad and that got him angry,"who are you calling a mad hedgehog?" he asked in a deep voice, he sauntered up to the yellow hedgehog.

"And were the hell! Is Zark?" The dark hedgehog yelled.

The yellow hedgehog started to panic "oh uh I was just uh...Hey Zark there you are buddy!" Zark had just came out the tree's, he sighed in relief when he saw him, Mephill's was about to grabb the yellow hedgehog, when he saw the black hedgehog walking over to them while rubbing his head.

"I hope you weren't slacking off, Zark you know I want that eigth emerald," Mephill's said as he turned away from the two hedgehogs.

Zark closed his eye's "I know you want it but, you yourself cannot control it."

Mephill's frowned "what do you mean I can't control it?"

Zark sighed "A pink hedgehog called Amy Rose, is the sole controler of the eigth emerald,"

Mephill's growled "then bring me that hedgehog!" He then disappeared.

The yellow hedgehog wiped some sweat of his forehead, "boy you sure showed up at the right time, I thought he was gonna plummel me, dude that is one scary hedgehog."

Zark frowned when the yellow hedgehog nuged him on the side "I can't do this any more!" Zark yelled and walked off. The yellow hedgehog was confused and he ran and caught up with him and used both hands to stop him.

"Whao wait Zark..You know we owe Mephill's." The yellow hedgehog said reminding the dark hedgehog who had stopped walking and grunted at the yellow one.

Zark clenched his fist's and sighed "I know that! But I just can't put her in any more danger than I already have...Hm maybe I can stop this somehow," Zark said perking up a bit causing the yellow hedgehog to worry a little bit.

"Wait, don't tell me you've fallen in love with her," the yellow hedgehog was annoyed he looked at the dark one who was surpirized at the yellow hedgehog that he had actaully guessed it right.

"Uh, how did you know?"

"I saw the way you looked at her back on that floating island, Zark you know there's no way outta this we have to do what he say's." The yellow one said while shrugging.

Zark just nodded, "yeah I know..Come on let's just get on with the job."

The yellow one agreed and they both started walking, "so, any idea's on where she might be?"

"Well there's one, but I don't how we're getting there."

"No worries, I gotta plane that'll get us there."

Zark raised his eyebrow at him, could he really fly a plane? "Alright then, we're heading to Crystal Island." The two hedgehog's found the plane that was deep inside their hideout somewhere in the Mystic Ruins and they took off heading for the island.
