CHAPTER 6

THE NEW FAMILY

Wave ran up to Jet and hugged him while studying his injuries that Shadow had made on him. She always knew that Shadow would always be the fastest and strongest. "Jet, are you alright? You look like you're hurt." She said as she placed her hand on the side of his face which made him look into her eyes.

"Wave, I'm..." he was then cut off when his wife's lips met his as she kissed him for an incredibly long time.

She laughed a bit when she heard a few moans escape him. She had took her mouth away from him before they had gotten too carried away and wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled at him, until they both heard soft giggles coming from Charmy and Storm.

"Looks like Jet's getting the special treatment", the young bee said to Storm.

"Yeah, he's feeling a lot better now", the albatross said back.

Jet glared over to Storm and frowned but when he saw Wave smiling a bit, he couldn't help but to smile as well.

They were then interrupted when they heard Tempest crying once again on the floor without anyone near him.

Wave ran over to him about to pick him up until Jet held her back. "Jet!"

"No way, Wave! We don't know how his weaponry is functioned. If we trigger it, he could kill us all. We shouldn't touch him...just leave him there", it made him feel bad to just leave his newborn son on the cold, hard, blood covered floor crying for attention.

"Jet, come on. If you want to help your son so bad come with me and lets get Eggman", Shadow had said.

The hawk nodded, "Right." He ran over to Shadow while thinking about how bad he wanted to kill Eggman for this.

Shadow grabbed Jet's wrist, "Chaos Control!" A green light appeared around them and then they had disappeared within just a few seconds later.

Meanwhile in Eggman's base, Eggman was sitting in his desk chair with his feet on the desk looking extremely happy. "Heh, the fools. I can't believe they actually believed that lie. That was absolutely the worst lie I ever came up with and they took it like class A suckers."

"Suckers huh?" A familiar voice said from behind him.

Eggman's huge smile faded as he looked behind him with a surprised look on his face. He saw Jet and Shadow standing there in the center of the room giving him a cold look. "What! That's impossible! You're supposed to be dead!"

"You mean you, right?" Jet had said with disgust. He clearly wouldn't let Eggman off the hook for lying and taking his son all in one move.

Shadow walked up to him before he could move and grabbed the collar that was around his neck. "Listen Eggman, you're coming with us and you're going to remove the weapons you placed into that child's body. Every single one of them. Got it?"

"And if I don't?" He asked with a sly look on his face.

He took out his handgun and pointed it at his forehead which changed Eggman's mind pretty quickly.

"So where is the little bundle of pure chaos?"

When they got back to the Chaotix, Eggman had removed the guns that he placed in Tempest's body without any tricks. He held the giggling child at Wave, "There, I took it all out. Happy?"

Wave snatched the blue bird out of Eggman's hands and held him close to her cradling him without any weapons appearing from his insides. "Tempest, you're yourself again."

"Kick ass is okay!" Storm shouted with happiness.

"Storm, it's Tempest", Wave corrected.

"Whatever", he said in an uncaring voice.

"Yeah well...time for me to go", Eggman almost ran out the door until Vector and Espio stood in the way. He looked back over to Shadow holding up a pair of handcuffs in his hand.

"Dr. Eggman, you're under arrest." Before he could walk over to him and cuff him, he heard a gun click beside him. He looked over to Jet holding a handgun in his hands pointing it at Eggman. "Jet."

The hawk's eyes were fixed on Eggman and no one else, "Shadow, why don't you save some of your cuffs."

"Jet, what are you doing?"

Wave placed her hand over her mouth, "Jet, don't do it."

"It's not worth it", Storm was once again nervous about the gun Jet had.

"Yes it is. Everything that he done to Tempest, every drop of his blood is worth the world to me. I won't let him get away with it."

"Jet, killing him won't make things better. Trust me. I would know. Even if you did kill him, it wouldn't make you happy. You would just be full of guilt and sadness for the rest of you life." He held out his hand reaching for the gun in Jet's hand. "Give me the gun."

Jet glanced over to Shadow and back at Eggman. Jet thought that he did have a point. Killing Eggman wouldn't do any good. Everything would still be the same except for the extra feelings within him and those new feelings that he would have would make him miserable. He took a deep breath and slowly placed the gun in Shadow's hand.
