It was now Saturday. Shadow invites Nebula to his place to practice for their tournament.

"Get ready to be taken down Nebs" Shadow said, slamming his fists together with a grin.

"Bring it on, bad boy" Nebula got in her fighting stance, motion her finger to come here.

"HAI!" Shadow shouted as he did a Yama-zuki or mountain punch at Nebula.

Nebula blocked the punch, "That wasn't very polite. Kyah!" she did a butterfly kick.

"OW! That hurt!" Shadow rubbed the spot where he got hit. He then did a knee kick.

"Ugh!" Nebula grunts but recovers quickly, "Not bad. Kyah!" she did an elbow punch.

"Now then. Take this!" Shadow did a sweep kick and Nebula blocked it.

"Haha! Gotcha. Kyah!" she does a judo throw.

"Ow, you're great" Shadow mutters sarcastically.

"Thanks. Sorry I hit you hard, but it's a practice" Nebula said while sparing with him.

"Yes, yes, right" Shadow calms down and continues to practice.

As they did this for 10 minutes, Shadow accidently pinned Nebula down.

"Shadow, can you get off please?" Nebula said irritated. Shadow snapped out of it and releases her.

"Sorry" he said, rubbing his neck.

"It's all right. By the way, have you ever tried fighting blindly in the dark?" Nebula asked.

"No, I can't see in the dark" Shadow said nervously.

"You don't need to see, Shadow" Nebula said.

"Okay then, I'll turn off the light" Shadow said, turning off the light.

The room became completely dark and that they can't see.

"I can't see. How am I supposed to fight?" Shadow asked.

"Not with our eyes, Shadow. With our ears. It's like playing a game of Blind Man's Bluff" Nebula said.

"Okay then, I'm like a dark ballerina" Shadow joked and did a sweep kick at Nebula.

Nebula used her ears to hear movements as she dodged the kick, "Missed me. Keep your ears sharp to hear movements around you in the dark"

Shadow nodded but got hit by Nebula's side punch.

"Gotcha" Nebula giggled. Shadow listened to Nebula's movement and dodges next move from her. He then blocked a punch from her and throws her to the floor.

"Gotcha!" Shadow taunted.

"Hmph, not bad. Kyah!" she sweep kicks him down, and kips herself back up to her feet.

"Okay, now it's break time, Nebs" Shadow replied, feeling like he's done, he turned on the light.

"Yup, how was it? Was it fun?" Nebula asked.

"Yeah and you're getting better and better" Shadow admits that she got great skills. He then pulled her into a hug.

Nebula gasped at this but soon relaxed and hugs him back.

She nuzzled his chest fur while hugging him.


With Silver and Blaze

Silver was getting stronger than Blaze; the feline cat tries to punch him but he grabbed her wrist.

"Ah ah ah. Kyah!" he punched her in the gut.

"OW!" Blaze screamed and tries to do a forearm strike at Silver.

Silver dodged it and gently kicks her.

"You're getting better I see" Blaze gets up, rubbing her waist.

"Yeah, and don't try to distract me with kisses" Silver joked.

"Why?" Blaze grins.

"Because, I may lose control of my body" Silver said with a blush.

"Good point" Blaze blushed.

Silver saw that Blaze had an evil idea in her eyes. She then did a double jump kick but missed.

"No no no, don't you dare" Silver stutters and tries to double punch her.

"Too late" Blaze chuckled and dodged the punch.

"Why you!" Silver groans and tries to do an elbow strike at her but she grabs his wrist.

"Ah ah ah" Blaze smirked and kissed him hard on the lips.

Silver jumped into the ceiling and got his forehead locks stuck. Blaze chuckled at that and his reaction.

Eventually he comes down from the ceiling and lands on his feet, still stunned from the kiss.

"Whoops, Sorry Silver, but I like your reactions" Blaze giggled.

Silver didn't say anything, he sighs dreamily and pulls Blaze close to him, kissing her back.

She liked it and kissed back. After 1 minute, they broke the kiss.

"Wow, amazing" Silver said.

Blaze sighs dreamily, anime hearts popped around her.

Silver caresses her cheek and smiled.

"You are beautiful Blaze" Silver said.

"And you're so handsome, Silver" Blaze said.

"I am? Thanks, I love you Blaze" Silver hugged Blaze.

"I love you too Silver" Blaze said, they kissed again, but just then Shadow and Nebula stepped in with surprised expressions on their faces.

"AAAHHH!" Silver and Blaze pulled away from each other, pretending that nothing happened.

"So, what were you both doing?" Nebula asked them.

"N-Nothing" Silver and Blaze blushed.

"Uh-huh, Is that so? Me and Nebs has been practicing" Shadow said.

"Cool. And anything new you learned, bro?" Silver asked.

"Well, training in the dark" Shadow answers his question and crosses his arms. Nebula winks at Shadow.

"In the dark?" Silver said, curiously.

"Yeah, practicing when the light is turned off, using our ears" Shadow explains to him.

"Wow. That's new" Blaze said.

"Yeah, but let's all have a break" Shadow told them all. They all walked to the living room to watch a Movie. They watched The Karate Kid from the 1980's.
