Hi everyone. This chapter begins with a flashback of Angel talking to her friends and telling them what jobs they'll do while they're in the M.F HQ. She chose the jobs based on what her friends are good at.
"Shade, you'll be building huts with Dad." Angel said. The 12 year old black male hedgehog in front of her wore his usual frown, similar to Shadow's old frown. He had green eyes and had red stripes down his quills that had pink tips. He wore deep violet hover shoes like Shadow's and deep violet gloves. He also had a white wrist band that held the shrunken white Chaos Emerald. Slowly Shade began to walk toward the hut builders.
"Amber, you'll be a lookout." Angel said. The 4 year old pink female hedgehog smiled. She had amber eyes and black rings of fur going down her quills. She wore cloths exactly like Amy's cloths when she was 12. Amber nodded, running to the lookout post. She was happy since if there was any trouble she would be able to use her speed to run and tell Angel as soon as it happened.
"Flash, you'll hunt with Sammy for meat." Angel said simply. Both Flash and Sammy nodded, walking toward the entrance to the cavern. Sammy looked back at Shade, as she frowned unhappily. "Come on." Flash said simply in his controlling tone, walking out of the cavern. "Coming!" Sammy yelled, running after him.
"Data, you'll be the technician and computer monitor." Angel said, checking the job off her list. The 5 year old golden seedrian smiled happily. He had blue eyes and a green gem in his chest. He wore cloths made from giant golden plant leave that he turned into a shirt, pants and shoes. He had golden hair (like Cosmo's) that had the three crescent shaped strands coming off of the front (like Tails). He rushed over to the computers and sat in front of them, checking every monitor for anything considered unusual. He had the love of machinery and the genius of them from his dad.
"Twig...you'll...um...you'll help make huts using your powers." Angel said. "Yes Ma'am." Twig said, giving Angel an army solute then going to where the hut builders were building their huts.
Angel turned to Damien. "And you'll be my personal bodyguard." Angel said with a smirk. "I see." Damien said simply. Truthfully he was grateful that she gave him that job, as long as he was her personal bodyguard he'd be able to be around her without being hassled by the others to go do his job.
Angel sat down, looking at the clip board in her hands. She had just finished giving everyone their jobs and she was kinda tired from walking around so much.
She looked over at Melo and Melody who were doing a good job of keeping the fires under control.
Then she turned her head to look at her father, Shade and Twig. They were all doing a good job at making the huts. Her father was using his strength to lift the heavy logs that would be cut up into boards for the huts, Shade was using both his strength and speed to carry the boards and put them into place, and Twig was using the power to control plants that he got from his mom to create huts all by himself.
The teen took the time to check on Amber who was unusually patient as she waited at her post.
Her mother, her little sister, Flash, Sammy and the bat kids hadn't returned with the food yet.
Angel gave a quick glance at the rest of the M.F who were working hard at the jobs they were assigned.
Finally the female echidna looked at Damien who was sitting beside her, doing his job of making sure she was safe at all times. Angel sighed happily, knowing that he had no excuse to leave her again. Then she remembered a certain place she had found while searching the cave before all the others came. It was so well hidden only she would be able to find it again.
She stood up and began to walk towards her father. "Where are you going?" Damien asked cautiously. "I'm going for a swim at a secret oasis." Angel answered simply. "Not without me your not." Damien said, running after the now running female echidna. Though Angel never told anyone she much preferred running to flying, though she didn't know why.
She quickly ran over to her dad. "Dad, I'm going swimming a little ways away. Damien will be there to protect me, so don't worry." Angel explained. Knuckles nodded his head, giving a quick glance toward the still running echidna. "Make sure you slow down for him then." Knuckles said laughing. "Ok." Angel said, running off just as Damien reached Knuckles. "You've gotta be kidding." He groaned, running after Angel.
A little ways later.
"We're here." Angel said, stopping at the edge of a huge pool of crystal clear water that was even clearer then Damien's eyes. Damien looked around the tall cave in aw. The walls were studded with every jewel from Diamonds to Rubies. There was a waterfall that rushed into the pool that had every color of every gem. The ceiling glowed with billions and billions of glowing mushrooms that looked like stars. It was beautiful. That was the only way to describe the scenery. He looked at the pool of water, it must have been at least a hundred feet deep but you could still see the floor of the pool clearly.
"This place...puts the rest of Mobius to shame." Damien said in an aw struck voice. Angel smiled and laughed. "I know...this is my spot, the place I can come to think or anything else. You're the first and last person I'm ever going to show this place to." Angel explained. Damien felt overjoyed. This was now 'their' spot. No one else would be allowed here...no one else could get here thanks to all the traps Angel set. (Yes, she set traps. She didn't want anyone entering her spot.)
"So why did you show me?" Damien asked. "Because well...it's the same reason I made you my bodyguard. To...spend more time together you could say." Angel said, smiling a seductive smile that didn't actually look half bad on her. "Where did you learn to do that?" Damien asked laughing. "My mom, who else." Angel said laughing as she swan dived into the pool.
Damien decided to jump in after her, just for the hell of it. "I didn't know you knew how to swim." Angel said. "I learned it while I was...away." Damien explained. Angel blocked all of her thoughts off from Damien as she began to think. Am I one two, a Project Shadow prototype? I guess I'll never know. I should make sure Damien thinks Mom and Dad are my birth parents, it could cause problems if he knew the truth. Angel thought.
"Angel? Angel?" Damien asked continuously. "Hu?! What?!...um...could you repeat that?" She asked. Damien sighed. "Do you...have to be the leader?" He asked sadly. It took Angel a moment to realise why he would ask such a question. He doesn't think we can be together if I'm the leader. Sigh, if only he knew. Angel thought sadly. She pulled herself out of the pool, shaking off as much water as she could.
This caused her fur to go in every direction. She quickly fixed her fur, smoothing it again. Damien did the same. "I have to be the leader, that's what I was born to be." Angel said simply. Or created to be. Angel thought. "But that doesn't mean I can't be happy." Angel continued, giving Damien a passionate kiss. He wrapped his arms around her as she wrapped her arms around his neck to make the kiss more passionate. What happened next is something unable to be put under this rating. (And no, I'm not going to change the rating.)
Incase your wondering I don't right lemon stories, so when ever there are lemon in my stories I just say I can't put it under that rating. Shade and Amber's parents are Amy Rose and Shadow thw Hedgehog. Data and Twig's parents are Cosmo and Tails, incase you were wondering. If you have any questions not answered in the author's notes just ask and I'll add them to the author's notes in the next chapter.
