Sonette wakes up lost and confused. She looks next to her and saw Lilith still fast asleep. Slowly and without waking Lilith she got up and walks out of her room quietly. She then gets up and check on Rosie to find her and Tails fast asleep. Tails has his arm around her waist, his other arm as a pillow and Rosie has her back into his chest. She walks off smiling and outside and saw Amy, Shadow, Silver, Blaze and Cameron so she walks over, smiling.
"Morning Sonette." Amy said.
"Morning, how are you?" Sonette asks.
"We're fine." Cameron replies.
"Cameron has to go to the G.U.N.'s main base so Dr. Quack can keep an eye on him." Silver explains.
"I don't want to." Cameron whines.
"Just go Cameron, at least we'll know where you are." Sonette tells him. "When you get better you can come back." she then said and Cameron sighs.
"Okay, can you help me Silver?" Cameron asks and Silver smiles.
"Yeah, come on." Silver said and the pair walks off.
"Well I better go too, I have to go in the control room, come on Amy." Blaze said and the pair walks off. Sonette looks at Shadow and looks away as she felt a blush.
"What's wrong Sonette?" Shadow asks.
"Nothing, just a lot on my mind." Sonette lies. 'Why do I have this feeling towards him, I've never had them before?' Sonette thought as she walks off. Then she runs into Rouge and Rouge notice her bright red cheeks.
"So who do you love?" Rouge asks.
"What!? No one!" Sonette shouts. Rouge looks at Shadow who was looking at Sonette worried. Sonette looks back at him and then quickly away.
"So it's Shadow, I can tell him." Rouge suggests.
"No." Sonette quickly said as she grabs Rouge's hand. "Don't you dare." Sonette warns her.
"Why don't you tell him?" Rouge asks.
"Well…I don't know if he feels the same." Sonette replies, letting her go. Rouge then flies over to Shadow and smiling.
"Hey Shadow." Rouge greets.
"What do you want Rouge?" Shadow asks as he starts walking and Rouge hovering next to him.
"What do you think of Sonette?" Rouge asks.
"Why do you want to know?" Shadow then asks.
"What if I say she likes you more than a friend." Rouge said and Shadow stops walking, looks at Sonette and then Rouge. "You do like her." she said.
"So what if I do, it has nothing to do with you." Shadow said pointing at her and then walks off. Then Knuckles walks over and Rouge stands on the ground.
"What was that all about?" Knuckles asks.
"I need your help Knuckles." Rouge said.
"Why?" Knuckles asks as he cross his arms.
"I want to trap Sonette and Shadow together, somehow." Rouge replies.
"Why?" Knuckles asks confused.
"I'll fill you in." Rouge said and the pair walks off.

Sonette decide to take the day off and stay at the village. She could use a day off while the others fight, that and the commander of G.U.N. told her to. She's watching Knuckles and Rouge and wounding what the pair are up to, knowing them it's nothing good. Then Rosie and Tails walking over.
"Hey you two." Sonette greets, smiling.
"Hey, what's up?" Tails asks.
"I saw you two this morning." Sonette replies and they blush.
"Well… it's not what it looks like." Tails struggle to say and started sweating.
"Don't worry Tails, there's nothing wrong with it." Sonette quickly said.
"So it's okay if we date." Rosie asks.
"That's cute Rosie, there's nothing wrong with it." Sonette tells them and Tails sighs with relief. "Beside you do make a cute couple." Sonette then said.
"That's what other people say." Rosie replies.
"They're right, so stay out of trouble you two." Sonette said standing up and walking off. She then runs off to go and check on Sonic.

Eggman is in his control room as mad as the evil doctor can be with him is NEGA, Orbot and Cubot.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE GOT AWAY?" Eggman shouts at the tops of his lungs.
"And the others sir." Orbot said quietly.
"Dammit!" Eggman shouts as he hits the computer. "I needed her."
"I told you to roboticize her." NEGA said annoyed.
"Shut up!" Eggman shouts. "We need a new plan, a better plan." he then said.
"Like what boss?" Orbot asks.
"I don't know yet, how are the mines coming?" Eggman asks.
"Good boss, we have the roboticized Mobians working on it." Orbot said.
"Yeah, we'll have what we need in no time." Cubot added.
"Good, now I need a new plan, a better plan." Eggman said.
"Why don't we just take them out?" NEGA asks.
"Because I want Sonic to see this." Eggman replies. "Knowing our luck he'll wake up so I want to crush Sonette right in front of him."
"That's a great plan." NEGA said. "Until then we keep going with plan A?"
"Yes, we do." Eggman said.

Silver walks into Sonic's room to check on him while he's at the base. He walks in to find Sonette sitting in the chair next to him, holding his hand.
"Hey." Sonette said with a weak smile.
"Hey, how is he?" Silver asks.
"The same, very weak but the doc said he's getting better." Sonette replies.
"That's good to hear." Silver said.
"I know, I hope he wakes up soon. I could use his help." Sonette said.
"You're doing fine Sonette and kicking Eggman's and NEGA's asses." Silver said and Sonette chuckles.
"Thanks Silver, you're a good friend." Sonette whispers.
"That's why I am here." Silver said as Allison walks in.
"Hey Allison." Sonette said smiling.
"Hey, how are you?" Allison asks.
"Fine after everything that's happen." Sonette said standing up.
"I heard that you went missing for two months, are you sure you are okay Sonette?" Allison asks worried.
"I'm fine Allison, I just took the whole losing Luther, Sophia and the others hard, a little too hard." Sonette confesses.
"Well I'm glad you are ok, we've been so worried." Allison said.
"I'm fine Allison." Sonette said walking off.
"She also was captured by Eggman, but she hasn't told anyone what happened." Silver tells Allison.
"Oh that girl is going to be the death of me. She's got a big heart and a good sprit, I just worry about her." Allison said.
"Same, so does the whole Sonic Team." Silver said.
"Well keep an eye on her Silver and ask Shadow to keep an eye on her too, I don't want her to cut her wrist again. That scared me when I found her." Allison tells Silver and he nods.
"I'll tell Shadow now." Silver said running off.
"You care for Sonette." Allison heard Dr. Quack said. She looks back and sees him.
"Yeah, she's like a little sister I never had." Allison said.
"Don't worry, she'll be fine." Dr Quack said.
"I hope you're right doc, I can't lose her too." Allison said looking at Sonic. "And Sonic can't lose her."
"I know, after everything those two have been though, they need each other." Dr. Quack said looking at Sonic too.

Later that day it was night fall. Sonette is walking through the forest near the village getting a break from the others staring at her. She hates being stared at even though it happens all the time when she's at the beach with Rosie and the others. She then heard footsteps and stops walking and looks around.
"Who's there?" Sonette asks. Then she saw Shadow walks out from the shadows and Sonette smiles "Shadow, you scared me" Sonette said placing her right hand on her chest.
"Sorry." Shadow said walking over to her. "What are you doing?" he then asks.
"Walking." Sonette replies.
"Can I join?" Shadow asks.
"Sure, if you want to." Sonette replies walking off and Shadow was right next to her. Sonette tried to avoid eye contact but that failed a few times. Then the next thing she knew is her and Shadow stuck in a net hanging from the tree. Sonette has her hands on Shadow's chest to hold herself off him. "Whose idea of a prank is this?" Sonette asks annoyed.
"It has Rouge all over it." Shadow said annoyed.
"You just can't trust that bat." Sonette said. "This is so embarrassing." Sonette admits, going red.
"Why?" Shadow then asks.
"Uhhhh… well it's… I really don't know how to say it." Sonette whispers.
"Rouge told me." Shadow said and Sonette goes into shock and looks away from Shadow. "So you do like me." Shadow said and Sonette sighs.
"That was meant to be a secret." Sonette said softly. "But yes." she then said looking at Shadow. Shadow smiles as he went up and kisses Sonette who then wraps her arms around his neck. "Okay, maybe it's not that embarrassing." Sonette then said.
"Well now, love is in the air." they heard Rouge said. They look over and see her and Knuckles.
"Get us down, now!" Sonette shouts.
"Okay, calm down." Knuckles said walking off and cutting the rope which made the pair drop. Shadow stands up and then helps Sonette up and they smile. Then they stare at Knuckles and Rouge who then runs off like there's no tomorrow.
"I think they got the hint." Shadow said.
"Come on, let's head back." Sonette said and the pair walks off, holding hands.
