Even though chaos filled the night, our heroes eventually got their share of sleep. And all of the passengers came to the 'cafeteria' of the ship, which really looked like a restruant rather than a cafeteria, and a fancy one too.

"I see you all had a good rest" Benigo smiled claping his hands together once in a gesture.

Sonic yawned his attention on his fork, which he was poking at in boredom.
Amy grabbed sonic by the arm "We had a wonderful rest Thank you" Sonic shuddered.
Knuckles snickered. His feet crossed on the table.
"Some people just have nooo manners." Rouge pushed knux a bit in a flirtatious manner.
"Grr! Lay off!" Knuckles shouted furiously.
"Reeeeelax, it wasn't assault honey." Rouge turned and sat at a table with Shadow.
"Ah-well lets get you all some of the best breakfast food there is. We have a 5 star chef whom can cook some of the best omelets and a lot lot more, Enjoy your meal" Benigo finished and left to another room.
Amy picked up her menu after placeing her napkin on her lap. "Hmm.. Soo many things.. ohh I don't know what to choose!" Amy looked over at Sonic "What are you choosing?" she asked curiously.
"I aint hungry" Sonic mumbled biting his fork.
Amy gave Sonic the death glare then turned to cream with a cheerful face.

"Sure seems empty around here" Rouge said looking at the empty seats.
"A little too empty" Shadow agreed.

Rouge looked back at the other table with sonic and friends, they were laughing and talking, surely didn't even think about all the empty tables In the room.

Rouge put her menu aside.
Shadow eyed her and put his menu on top of hers.
"You sure know how to keep a girl secure" Rouge said sarcastically to Shadow.
Shadow crossed his arms and looked away.

"What would you like mr. Sonic the hedgehog?" The waiter said.
"I aint hungry" Sonic said crossing his arms.
"Well if you do get hungry, just be sure to ring this bell, and I'll bring you anything you like" the waiter smiled, then continued to Amy's order. "And you miss?"
"I would like…. Hmm…. The Vegetarian omelet sounds nice---"

insert usual things that come with meals in fancy restaurants along with side items and delicious names of foods with very descriptive titles of the meals that drive Sonic crazy out of hunger but he's too stubborn to admit it.. poooor hedgie
The waiter collected the menus and handed sonic the bell.

"uh waiter, I don't need this see" Sonic started saying but got cut off by his stomach growling. Sonic shrugged and looked at Amy "Hehe?"

Rouge smiled politely and pointed to what she wanted on the menu.
"Ah yes, wonderful choice miss" the other waiter complimented.
"And for you sir?"
"Pancakes, All you can eat special…."
Sonic's ear twitches.
"Well… ok.. Also a nice… choice.." the waiter took the two menus. "I'll be back with your orders as soon as possible" he smiled and walked away.

"You sure you can handle that?" Rouge asked shadow.
Shadow looked back at her "Hmph… Yeah..".

--10 min later or so—

The omelets were given to Amy and Cream, Tails and Knuckles also had food, as well did knuckles. Knuckles got a big T-bone steak and scrambled eggs, while tails got some sausage and hash browns with scrambled eggs.
a Big stack of 10 pancakes was given to Shadow.

As soon as the plate hit the table, Sonic's attention turned to the pancakes. He couldn't help but stare, so many pancakes. Amy and Cream talked to each other, tails laughed, also in the conversation. Sonic ignored them.
Shadow got some syrup and put it on the pancakes, Sonic almost drolled. Shadow cut the pancake into 4 pieces. He stuck his fork in one, then another, and slowly put it into the corner of his mouth. He put his fork down and chewed on the pancake, turning his attention to Sonic, he chewed slowly, wondering what that blue hedgehog was looking at. Sonic lowered himself behind his chair, like a little kid. Amy poked Sonic with a fork, Sonic shrieked and fell off the chair.

"Stop acting so immature and eat something!" Amy said to Sonic.
Sonic crossed his arms. And then looked over seeing shadow eat the pancakes.

Rouge cut a piece of an orange and ate it slowly, still with her fork in her mouth, she spotted Sonic's stare. She slowly slide the fork from her lips and set it down on the plate.

"Shadow.. What's he stareing at?" she whispered.
"Don't know." He said while cutting a pancake.
"I'm done, I think I'll step out for a bit" Rouge said scooting out of her chair.
Shadow looked at her and nodded.
Rouge leaves the room.
Shadow couldn't help but notice she didn't eat as much as usual, or at least as much when he cooked for her that one morning. He wondered if something was troubling her. His thought was broken when suddenly.. something very.. very.. unexpected happened..

Sonic rung the bell wildly "I WOULD LIKE A PANCAKE MY GOOD MAN!" he said with a british accent. "HA HA HA" Sonic yelled.
Amy glared at him "Sit down" she said sternly.
Sonic quickly sat down.
"Good boy" she said patting his head.
"I don't think Mr. Sonic likes it, Amy" Cream said concerned, as Sonic had a sad face, his ears down.
"Oh he doesn't mind, Right Sonic?"
Sonic paused, uneasy.
"RIGHT SONIC?" Amy said with fire in her eyes.
Sonic nodded with a fake smile, looking away.

Benigo came out of the kitchen "I hope you all are enjoying your meals, your pancakes are being prepared right away." He smiled. "Tonight there will be a dinner in a special celebration room, with one big table, I'm sure it'll be much better then this empty room here. It'll be at 6'o clock. I'll see you then" He smiled and walked out of the room yet again.

"I didn't realize how empty it was" Amy said looking at the empty seats.
Cream nodded "but at least we're all hear with our friends, right cheese?" Chese chanted "chao chao chao!"
Amy giggled.

"Right. I understand." Rouge talked into a small walky talky, simmiliar to a cell phone. "4 days" she confirmed. She hanged up.
"What was that all about" Shadow said leaning against the door way to the hall.
Rouge thought fast, realizing she couldn't tell him if she was going to get all the chaos emeralds, including his.
"Confirmed a schedule, relax it's nothing too important," Rouge put the phone away. "So shadow, up for a swim?"
"I'll pass" Shadow said, turning around and starting to walk away.
Rouge put her hands on her hips. She flew after him. "Come on Shadow we don't do a lot together, you know, there's a lot of fun things to do on this ship" Rouge said thoughtfully.
"Really" Shadow said almost ignoring her. He sensed she was up to something.
"Yeah… you know I could show you" she suggested. She came to a corner of the hallway, Shadow behind her "This way" she said walking down the hall, Shadow followed.
