Italics mean's the character thinking in their head.
The next morning, Shadow's POV
Espio and Shadow are awake whilst everyone else is still sleeping.
"So Espio you ready to help this Angel wolf?" asked Shadow.
"Alicia? Yeh I'm ready, are you?" replied Espio.
"Always" said Shadow smugly, as long as Amy is involved.
"I hope you are always ready, because who knows what dangers are in Alicia's dimension" said Espio suddenly serious.
"Good point Espio. Let's wake up the team so we can get a move on"
"But Alicia might not be conscious yet"
"Hmm, yeh she might not be, but the others still need to be awake"
"Okay, I'll wake up Sonic and Mighty you wake up Amy and we're both wake up Alicia"
"Sounds good to me" Espio goes off to wake up the boys up. Okay time to wake my Rose up, Shadow be serious she probably doesn't even care about you like that, but what if she does? There's only one way to find out. I walk in to Amy.
"Amy...Amy it's time to wake up beautiful" whispered Shadow whilst shaking her shoulder.
"Huh, Shadow did you call me beautiful?" asked an almost awake Amy.
"What, um...yes I did, are you angry?"
Amy gets up and holds Shadow's face in her hands "why would I be?" As Amy reached in to kiss Shadow, and Shadow reached in to kiss back, when all of a sudden the ground started shaking violently.
"What is this?" asked Amy franticly.
"Earthquake" said Shadow calmly. "Come on let's get out of here" Shadow grabs Alicia and jumps through window, followed by Amy.
"What was that?" Amy asked again hysterically.
"An earthquake" said Espio just as calm as Shadow.
"I'm not sure, if that was an earthquake" said Sonic suspiciously.
"It wasn't, look" Shadow points into the distance and there stands two robed figures and a strange creature.
"What is that?!" shrieked Amy.
"It is a Manticore!" boomed the robed figure.
"And who are you?!" questioned Sonic in a cocky way.
"Me, I am Mephiles the Dark, mercenary of the great Valgard" said Mephiles.
"Enough talk, Manticore kill all of them, except the angle wolf, Valgard wants her" demanded Mystery figure 2.
"YES MASTER!" roared the Manticore, as it rushed into battle, roaring all the way.
"Amy, Alicia stay back were take care of this" I said in the most leader like way possible.
"Be careful" Amy cautioned.
"Always am, come on guys" I said, damn I'm starting to be as cocky as Sonic, better change that. Shadow, Sonic, Espio and Mighty charged at the already charging Manticore.
