Hey guys, you should consider yourselves lucky. I am bored and have been watching videos on Youtube that pushed me to update this so enjoy it. I'm just really excited to get Shadow into this story, especially in season 3 cause when he returns, Kara will go from being an entirely different person, you'll understand once I get past Shadow's 'death', to being herself again and that is the season where she admits to Shadow she's in love with him, which happens a lot faster than in Snowflakes and Shadows, the story this is based off of. There, they stay friends for a while, then start secretly dating and then admit they love each other...in the least romantic situations ever. But, that's just how I imagine it. Besides, Shadow isn't romantic in my mind, he's too serious but he is sweet at times, so he earns that from me. Also, Kara and Shadow now have a song that fits them! Yay! It's Leave Out All the Rest by Linkin Park, and it's from Shadow's PoV on how he feels about Kara so go listen to it, it is amazing! Alright, so thanks to LA J Lover7778 (Aw, thanks, that's so sweet of you to say! I hope you keep reviewing cause they always make me smile like yours did!) and starrat (Thank you, that means a lot even if it was just two word, it still made me smile.) for reviewing/following/favoring along with all 272 readers! Also, if anyone could suggest a voice actress for Kara, I'd really appreciate it! I hope you guys enjoy this chapter and remember to review! Now let's get to the action! (Oops, I forgot, in my opinion, when they started Sonic X, the creaters were hinting at Cream and Tails liking each other so Kara's feelings about them are just my opinion of the small hints.)
"So this Chaos Control created a warp in time and space and that's how you guys ended up here." Chris summed up as he stood in his grandpa's lab above the garage with his other worldly friends. "Hmm, I think I understand that much, but I still don't understand these Chaos Emeralds you guys are talking about." The animals were currently sitting while Chris stood and Chuck typed on his computer. Cream, Cheese and Tails sat on one cushion while Amy and Kara sat against another with Sonic leaning on the window pane.
"You've never heard of the Chaos Emeralds?" Tails and Kara asked in unison, a sort of habit that came with spending a lot of time together with each other.
"Boy, you really do have a lot to learn, don't ya!" Tails added.
"Each Chaos Emerald is filled with a magical power!" Amy explained, "So you could imagine what would happen if you found all 7 of 'em."
"But no one has ever found all 7 emeralds and its highly improbable that anyone ever will find them." Chuck said.
"Why is that?" Cream asked innocently.
"Well, you see Cream, every one of the precious Chaos Emeralds has disappeared." Chuck answered sadly.
"That doesn't mean they're gone for good!" Sonic interjected. The whole group turned to the blue blur as he continued, "Any time the 7 Chaos Emeralds come together in the same place, they scatter and disappear all over again."
"Always." Kara nodded, having been through it more than a couple times herself. The dang emeralds always disappeared, starting the hunt all over again. Why couldn't they just stay in one place for once so they could be protected?
"Then that means they're all still out there someplace!" Chris realized.
"That's right." Sonic agreed, giving the boy a thumbs up.
"Only we don't have any way of knowing where." Tails added, "If they're on this planet, that's good."
"But if they're on the planet we came from, we may never get home!" Kara finished sadly, crossing her arms as she looked down at her white boots.
"Listen, if the emeralds are somwhere on this planet, and if we can find some way to locate them all, maybe we'll be able to reverse that time warp. You guys will be back on your home planet before you know it! Right Sonic?" Chris smiled.
"Yeah! No worries!" Sonic smiled.
"The only problem is finding them before old Egghead does." Kara reminded. While she was usually the optimist, in desperate times, she always brings reality back. It was a strange part of her personality, as if she was two seperate people some times. Knuckles often asked where she picked up the two different sides to her personality from. She didn't know, of course...but it felt like...there were two people...who were important to her...and gave her those two different sides...
Kara was walking into the living room to check on Cream and Cheese when she saw the TV screen. Her eyes widened when she saw the picture the woman was holding. It was the green Chaos Emerald!
"Cream!" Kara cried.
"We've gotta tell Sonic! Hurry!" Cream cried. Cheese let out a sound of agreement and the three took off to find Sonic in a tree. "Sonic, you won't believe it!" Cream cried as the three reached the tree he was in.
"What's up?" Sonic asked upon seeing the frazzled rabbit, hedgehog and Chao.
"They've found one!" Kara cried, "They've found a Chaos Emerald!" The girls quickly led Sonic inside so he could see for himself what was going on.
Kara, Amy and Tails were in the Tornado, prepared to follow Sonic after the Chaos Emerald.
"Be careful." Cream said, "Don't get hurt, Tails!"
"Don't worry, Cream! We'll be okay!" Tails reassured, smiling at the rabbit. Kara resisted the urge to aww at the two. They were so cute, she just knew they liked each other.
"I hope Sonic knows where he's going. If he gets lost we won't know where to look for him." Amy said.
"I'm sure he's fine, Amy." Kara smiled.
"Don't worry about Sonic, if anyone can find the Chaos Emerald, he can." Tails added.
"Good luck, and be sure to keep your eyes out for Sonic!" Chuck said. Kara gave the older man a thumbs up before Tails put the Tornado in the air and she used her staff so she was outlined in white, making her stick to the plane as it took to the sky.
When the three animals found Sonic, Kara jumped off and flew towards him as Amy cried,
"Hey Sonic, it's over there!"
"Chaos Emerald, here I come!" Sonic cried as he followed Amy's direction, Kara right beside him.
"You mean we, hedgehog!" Kara corrected, "We're a team, after all."
"Alright, Snowflake, you win. Here we come." Sonic smiled. Since Kara was so innocent, saying no to her was just like saying no to Cream, either impossible or heartbreaking. As the duo went, they suddenly ran into a fleeing mob, forcing them onto a building.
"What's going on?" Kara asked, tilting her head slightly. Sonic turned his head and Kara followed. The two saw Eggman at the same time. What a surprise...not!
"So, Dr. Egghead thinks he can nab that Chaos Emerald before us!" Sonic smirked. Kara grinned up at Sonic. He treated stuff like this like a game and she had just adapted to it. Besides, she was a child at heart and all children love games! The two blurs took off, one running and the other flying as they raced their shared nemesis to their prize. Suddenly, Kara's snowflake on her headband glowed.
"Sonic...robot behind us." She reported as she sensed the incoming problem. Sonic nodded slightly and jumped in the air, Kara beside him, when the robot, Beacon, hit Sonic, who in turn hit Kara. Kara managed to get a distance away from Beacon but Sonic wasn't so lucky. Kara stayed by the robot but she couldn't figure out a way to help without getting hurt herself. Rings were thrown their way but both Sonic and Kara missed them. Ugh! Kara mentally groaned as she continued to try and find a way to help Sonic. Beacon continued to knock Sonic around until he was knocked away. Kara followed him as Amy cried,
"Sonic!" The two looked up and as they got closer, took the two rings she held into their hands. Kara grinned at her female friend as she passed, clutching the ring tightly. Though she didn't use rings often, they were required when she was with Sonic, who was using one. As the two flew towards Beacon, Sonic began to spin and Kara began to become an even brighter blur, resembling light. The two went straight through Beacon, causing it to explode. As the two landed, they turned as Chris cried,
"Whoa! Help! Somebody, help!" They saw the boy holding onto none other than Eggman's Egg Mobile.
"Sonic!" Kara cried, worry gripping her.
"It's Chris!" Sonic cried and the two took off, desperate to save the boy. When they got closer, Kara jumped up and released a barrier, protecting Chris long enough for Sonic to jump up and grab the boy. The two ran off then, going as fast as they could to get Chris to safety.
"I'm checking him out back home." Kara muttered, loud enough for only Sonic to hear. Sonic nodded slightly as they continued on.
Once they got back to the house, Kara held Starlit Night over Chris and her light enveloped him.
"Uh, Snowflake? What're you doing?" Chris asked.
"Making sure you aren't hurt." Kara answered softly, her eyes and snowflake glowing a slight white. The light faded and she grinned like a child. "You're okay! Now, why were you putting yourself in such danger?"
"For this." Chris said as he held out the green Chaos Emerald.
"Now that we have one, we just need 6 more!" Cream grinned.
"That's right, Cream!" Amy agreed.
"We're gonna go home!" Kara cheered, bouncing on the balls of her heels. Hope and innocence shined around her, practically making her glow with happiness.
"I'm not certain we should keep it here. After all, it might have an effect on my equipment." Chuck said.
"No problem. If anything goes wrong with them, I'll fix 'em for ya." Tails offered.
"Alright, it's a deal." Chuck agreed with a smile. Kara giggled slightly, feeling more at ease than she had since they arrived in this world. And when she was at ease, she was almost a little kid instead of an amnesic 15 year old.
"Okay, grandpa!" Tails smiled. Kara giggled even more when she saw Chuck's face. Kara bounded over to Sonic excitedly, exclaiming,
"We're gonna go home, Sonic! Isn't that great?!" Sonic chuckled and ruffled her quills, causing the girl to whine his name.
"Um, Sonic, I'm sorry." Chris apologized.
"What are you sorry for?" The two hedgehogs asked in unison, both of them confused.
"Well, for...for losing-" Chris started.
"Got it back, didn't ya?" Sonic interuppted, "That's all that matters."
"And you're okay!" Kara added, grinning up at the boy. Chris stared at the two with wide eyes.
"We think you did a great job!" Kara and Sonic grinned in unison, Sonic giving the boy a thumbs up as he did.
"Uh, I...I did?" Chris asked with a smile.
"You sure did, Chris. Just be a little more careful next time, huh?" Chuck smiled before he laughed.
"Thanks." Chris smiled before he looked at his new friends, who were all smiling at him. He then looked down at the Chaos Emerald with a smile. Kara grinned at all her friends as she whispered softly,
"We're one Chaos Emerald closer to home..."
