Chapter Nine: Confessions
"W-why would you wanna know?" Sonic asked Shadow. "Because I wanted to know if you just helped her out of nowhere, because you never showed a little bit of emotion too her, or maybe you finally love her." Shadow said. "Same thing about you! You never even helped us out unless you were really involved, like when you had amnesia and when Mephilles rebirthed out of your shadow." Sonic said. Shadow had to admit, his sudden help was more suspicious than his. "And what if I do?" Shadow asked. "I won't get mad or try to stop you from hurting Amy or something like that. I just want to know and it's up to Amy, when she revives, if she wants to be with you or not. But if you try to force her or get mad because she didn't choose you, I will kill you!" "Like hell I will! I want her to be happy and if she's happier with another guy then she must go with that guy! I just blew that I love her... didn't I?" Shadow said with a 'crap' look on his face. "Yup." Sonic said.
"We blew ourselves huh?" Sonic said after a long silence between him and Shadow. "Yeah... I guess that means that Amy's got to choose between us." Shadow admitted. "Well, let's first have fun with us three so she'll be able to choose. Otherwise it would be kinda to be like 'Hurray Amy's back! Now could you choose between us?' Because that's kinda inappropriate if you ask me." Sonic said. "True, though I'm going to kill you if you hurt her!" Shadow threatened. "Same for you brah, same for you." Sonic returned. "DON'T CALL ME YOUR BRO!" Shadow yelled at Sonic who had started to run the fuck away and Shadow followed with an 'I'm so going to kill you!' look on his face.
The two spend the next couple of weeks risking there lives in tornadoes, tsunamis, stealing from a mad king, to get all the emeralds.
Though someone had something else on his agenda.
"Hohohohohoho!" He laughed. He was standing in front of a big table with something on it, but you wouldn't be able to see it because of the blanket on top of it. "Sir, could you please tell us your plan by now?" A little robot with a British asked. "Well, let's just say that my plan will end like none of my others have." The man said. "So you'll win for once?" The robot said. This maddened the man and he stepped into the light to uncover himself. "You..." He said in anger. "My excuses doctor, I was just thinking out loud." The robot apologised with a scared look on his face, well, as scared as his metal face would allow him. Then the doctor sighed. "Let's just hope that they follow the instructions." He said.
