Lone Rose in the Garden

Chapter 9: Awkward run in, Recruitment

Shadow's POV

Finally getting back to G.U.N headquarters, I feel a cold shiver go down my spine. I sigh at the realization of my mistake. I just agreed to participate in a pointless event again, and to make matters worst, the public knows about it. Knowing Rouge, I will never hear the end of this, but then again I suppose the heckling will never end with her. I found the momentous crowd of reporters at the front of the building to be an annoyance. So naturally I wanted to take the logical approach. As the Rose pulled into a suitable parking spot and turned the car off, I looked at her expression.

She was utterly repulsed by his actions, I could tell. As long as I've known Amy, I've never seen her so disgusted by faker, it's surprising and yet truly arousing. I suppose it is because she now sees the arrogant attitude that I have hated since the day I met him. Or maybe it's the lack of respect or regard for anyone else but himself when it comes to normal things like being on time and keeping promises. I take her ungloved hand in my own and chaos control our way into the building. I figure dodging the riff raff would calm her a bit.

Warping into hallway by Rouge's Office, I glance over secretary's desk as we walk through to the door. Empty. Well maybe she's hasn't gotten here yet. The Rose's fingers entangled in mine we proceed toward the oak double doors and turn the sliver handle. I figure she would be diligently working on reports or maybe coordinating missions. Come to find out, I was horribly mistaken.

Amy's POV

He opened the door slowly and I wondered why he was so cautious. Looking over his shoulder I followed him in until he abruptly stopped. Then I smelled it, the undeniable scent of lovemaking. We both looked over wide-eyed to the left and saw Rouge sprawled out on her cream colored desk, naked as the day she was born with her legs up in the air. Discarded office materials and clothes on the floor in messy plies, we then notice red dreadlocks moving up and down near her core as gloved hands held her thighs taut. I wanted to scream but nothing would come out thanks to Shadow's hand, which was covering my mouth. What was surprising was how quiet she was, although her face told a different story. Eyes glazed over, mouth formed in silent o and ginger touches and grabs to his head let it be known that she was enjoying every minute.

I wanted to look away, but I couldn't. It was like the most amazing car crash on a highway, you would slow down you car just to see what's going on. I was more surprised at the way Knuckles looked. He pulled away from her raging ocean and licked all of her nectar from his muzzle. As he stood licking the cum, tongue snaking around his lips slowly, his throbbing manhood caught my eye. Slowly stepping back and shutting my eyes I backed into the door, the noise startling the couple in heat.

Shadow's POV

My god Rouge disgusts me sometimes. She's a good friend but she really needs to learn how to control her sexual drive. I was about guide Amy out quietly before a heard a loud bang on the door. I turned to see Amy frozen in an Oops expression. I swivel around to see if they noticed, and sure enough…

"Why Shadow I am shocked!"

Rouge sat up putting her hand on her full hips, Knuckles throwing me a death stare; "I didn't know that you could be such a pervert?" she giggled.

God Damnit all, the taunting will never end will it?

"What the fuck are you doing here Shadow, don't you know how to knock?" Knuckles said while fumbling under the desk for his pants.

"Save me the melodramatics fools," I said which in turn made her cross her arms, nose upturned, like she was disgusted.

"Look, as much as I hate to admit it, especially now that I've seen this display of what I can only describe as crude amateur porn of the lowest form. I…need your help."

Rouge jumped off her desk walking toward me, breasts bouncing the entire way. "Oh ok, so you come in unannounced I might add, asking us for help? Why should we? What's in it for us?"

I cover my eyes halfway in frustration and in courtesy. I knew that Amy was behind me so I tried to stop her advance. I could almost bet that knowing Amy was here would put more salt in the wound. I motion for Amy to go outside the door as Rouge starts to pull on my hands. Immediately I start to get irritated.

"Look Rouge stop, I'll tell you my reasons after you put some fucking clothes on!"

"Why are you shy now Shadow?" she said pulling my hand away from my face, " You had no trouble looking at me before. Besides I'm not putting my clothes on until I finish pleasing my man. I never let a boner be wasted, so you could either tell me now or just wait outside my Goddamn door!"

Amy's POV

It's been almost 4 hours since Shadow and I had been kicked out of Rouge's office. Shadow took me to his office to busy himself with paperwork and I've been calling my job to ask for an extended vacation. I wonder how long those two can go? Wait…I guess I better not think about that. I had to admit, from what I seen today, this question I don't want to be answered. Watching Shadow catch up with his work I think about what he said about me earlier. About how he knew about my morning routine and how he already has my love. I guess in a way it made me feel so special, him knowing that I'm not just a trophy, I'm his love. Heh, it's nice to feel appreciated.

Come to think of it, another thing comes to mind. This was the first time I've ever heard Shadow say that he didn't want to kill Sonic. He hates him, and yet he doesn't want to kill him? Looking up to him as he types another document for his work I clear my throat to get his attention. Looking up, his amber eyes that were once focused and pensive towards his work were soft and kind as he looks at me.

"What is it Amy?" he asks sincerely.

"Well I was just wondering…um, Sonic. You said you didn't want to kill him."

"Yea, so?" he said as he continued to type.

"Well, I've never heard you say that before…ever."

"Can you tell me something honestly Amy?" Shadow said his eyes never leaving the screen of his desktop.

"Yea sure, anything." I say as I pull my knees up to my chest in the chair.

"Amy, if I were to kill faker, would you ever forgive me?"

Time froze. If only for a second I felt my heart miss a beat. I knew that if I said yes I would be lying. Yes I do hate Sonic, but I would never want to see him die. I wouldn't want to see any of my friends die. Regaining composure I realize that I haven't said anything in a while. I look up to Shadow, who has now finished his work. Our eyes meet and I realize he is staring, waiting for a response. Nodding his head slowly, he walks over and grabs my hand, pulling me into a warm embrace. Whispering in my ear he speaks softly.

"That is why Amy. I know I would lose you if I ever did that to him or to anyone you had or have loved. I know you, and I wouldn't go down that path unless it was absolutely necessary. Do you understand?"

I nodded silently as I pulled away to kiss him. He has really changed for the better. I feel so proud and at the same time I hope that the necessary doesn't happen.

Breaking the kiss I hug him tightly, "Thank you Shadow."

Shadow's POV

Of course if it weren't for her, I wouldn't hesitate to kill that stupid idiot. Correctly placed and 10 miles away I can use chaos energy to end the fool's life in one second. I smile to myself as I take her hips and hold them. I start to move in for another kiss when…

"Hey Shadow, you can't be like me…Come on Rouge will see you now!" Knuckles says as he smirks leaning against the door, finally fully clothed in brown cargo pants and a green tee shirt with his signature sneakers.

"Goddamnit Knuckles get the fuck out," I say calmly, however the guardian remains defiant.

"Why? I want to see a peep show too! Come on Amy, pop out a boob eh?"

I could feel a vein popping out of my forehead as anger rises within the both of us. We scream…

"KNUCKLES GET THE FUCK OUT!!"

"Gods! Fine I'm goin' " He says as he walks out into the hallway, looking back he remarks, "Geez you two are a couple now huh?"

Amy blushes as I look at her and I chuckle as I take her hand.

"Come on, let's deal with these two."

Walking back in the now clean and purified of sex office; we carefully pick seats and sit down with the treasure hunters. Rouge is now fully dressed in an indigo button up blouse and black pencil skirt with indigo heels. The blouse half open exposing cleavage.

"So when did it happen? You know the whole couple thing?" Rouge starts.

"Well we started going out today?" Amy said with uncertainty.

"Oh please we know officially that you found out your feelings way before that. I mean why else would you Shadow, go to the same café everyday, knowing that you hated the food there?"

I scratched the back of my head as Amy turned to me with an accusatory stare.

"And why didn't you say anything Shadow?" Amy said tapping her foot waiting for my response. I somehow felt a big sweat drop roll down the back of my head.

"Oh please Amy you're no better." Rouge continues as she pulls out some papers from her desk, "Theses are cell phone bills from you talking me to death when you get drunk at the club about how Shadow is soo cute and how you would bang him. And don't you try to deny it, I recorded it."

"Amy? You drunk dial?" Knuckles says as he grabs the cell phone bills.

Amy blushes as I laugh at situation.

"It's been a year of this crap and I had to be the one to finally get you two together. You guys are pathetic. But anyway, what's going on with the battle thing, I'm assume this why you came."

"Yea, guess you found out." I said, slightly irritated on how fast the news has traveled. "Well yeah, it's all over the Internet now." Knuckles said as he moved to sit on the desk. "Can't believe you two found the time to breathe, let alone check your email." Amy remarked. Rouge poked her tongue out as Knuckles rolled his eyes at the comment.

"Anyway," I said leaning forward, "We wanted to know if you two could help us find the emeralds."

Looking over to Knuckles, Rouge nodded and smiled, "Well Knuckles and I were thinking, instead of trying to find the chaos emeralds, how about we go one better."

Amy sat up with a puzzled look. "What are you two talking about, there are only chaos emeralds and the master emerald. What can we possible collect that could be better?"

Realizing what they meant I instantly shook my head.

"Oh no, you don't mean…"

Knuckles stood and nodded.

"Yessir…we're gonna find the Super emeralds."
