"Dead Bodies Everywhere" by KoRn

I can't explain this any better cause I suck at explaining, so when... um.. the fourth (Whom you can't know about yet .n.) person comes in, change the song to "Grifball Jam (RvB)". This version should be,m like, 30 minutes long.

I'm grounded on weekdays now, sooo... lol...

Chapter Eleven

Tails and Cosmo ran down the hallway, towards the Blue Typhoon's bridge. Tails quickly hacked the door open and moved towards the main control. Cosmo hung back, not wanting to get in Tails' way. As he worked over the computer, he had his back to Cosmo, and he heard her grunt quietly. Tails froze, then slowly turned to see what had happened.

"Hello Tails." Growled Shadow the Hedgehog, his hand over Cosmo's mouth, his other hand restraining her.

Tails was petrified. Run or save Cosmo's life? Fight and die? There had to be a tactical way to help his friend.

Cosmo tried to twist away from Shadow, but the black and red hedgehog easily kept her in his grip.

"What do you want with Cosmo?" Tails snarled.

Shadow glared at Tails. "I'm surprised you don't know already. I expected someone of your standards to figure it out by now."

Tails looked back at Cosmo, but just couldn't see what Shadow was talking about.

"Shadow, she's not the enemy!" Tails hollered angrily. "She's done nothing wrong, and I'm not just about to let you hurt her! She isn't the enemy."

All Shadow did was grin. "You're a fool to challenge me." He chuckled. "It seems you both want to die."

Suddenly, Shadow let go of Cosmo and his back straightened in pain.

Cosmo ran back to Tails.

Shadow fell to one knee, revealing a familiar female fox standing behind him with a tiny metal contraption in her hand.

"Kat?" Tails breathed. "How did you...?"

Instead of looking happy to be with Tails, Kat stuck her nose angrily up in the air. "First you choose Cosmo over me, but now you have to insult my intelligence, too?" She walked over to Tails and Cosmo, setting the device she had in her hand on the computer desk.

"What?" Tails asked, genuinely confused.

"You think I can't hack? That's insulting." Kat snorted as she began to type into the main controls. "You're not the only one with a high I.Q., Tails."

Tails was about to retort, when he heard Cosmo clear her throat. "What about Shadow?" She asked.

Kat didn't even look over her shoulder. "Don't worry. That thing had enough power to kill a horse or two in one go. He should be out for an hour." She nodded towards the little contraption on the desk. The little metal thing looked like a spider, it's long metallic legs curled above it as if it were dead.

Suddenly, power returned to the ship. "There we go." Kat snorted. Then she became serious. "The only things that won't open are the doors. It will take half an hour to open them all at once, so we're going to have to go around and open them by hand. Except, the lock as soon as they close."

Tails was quiet for a moment, blinking against the sudden light. "So if a mass-unlock isn't optional right now, then what are we going to do? We need to get everyone out."

"Yeah," Muttered Kat. "I'm Shine is pissed right now..."

They heard a grunt behind them. Kat's tail spiked in fear, giving her the right to share a name with the felines.

"Goddamn..." Shadow got to his feet, rubbing his head. "That hurt..." He muttered. He realized the there were others here.

Kat's tail got even fluffier. "Um... So, Tails? I may have just figured out that the spider doesn't work all too well on ultimate life-forms." She grabbed the copper spider off from the desk nonetheless, and gave it to Cosmo. "Here, take this."

Cosmo looked down at it. "Fat lot of good it did us!"

"Don't snap at me." Kat growled.

"Well, it's true."

Kat grumbled under her breath. Something about the copper spider and Cosmo tripping with it.

Shadow looked at the copper spider in Cosmo's hand, realizing what happened ten minutes ago. Then he looked at Kat and narrowed his remaining eye. "How did you get here?"

Kat threw her hands in the air, exasperated. "Why does everyone seem to think I'm as dumb as a rock?" Then she whipped her head towards Cosmo. "Not. A word." Cosmo shrugged.

Shadow ignored them. "Shine's been training you hasn't she?"

Kat beamed. "Yeah, she has."

Shadow almost chuckled. "How pointless."

Kat's pleased beam withered into a death-ray. "HEY!" She snarled "It is not pointless!" As she continued to rant on, Shadow looked increasingly irritated. "One day, I'm going to be a hero, just like Shine is! So watch out, Shadow! I'm going to kick you a-"

"Enough of this!" Shadow barked, interrupting Kat's empty threat. "Two tiny foxes and a plant aren't nearly enough to stop what has to be done."

"Shadow, why are you suddenly doing this? Before you wanted to help us! Despite your gut, you offered to help me." Cosmo pleaded. "So why are you trying to kill me now? Why did you join the Metarex."

Annoyance flashed briefly across Shadow's face. "You're a tiring little runt, aren't you? I was wrong, before. I realized I should be helping the one who's bound to win. And I am not aiding the Metarex. It's Eggman whom I'm helping." His eye suddenly became very cold. "Besides... I wouldn't tell you anything."

Cosmo stiffened in fear. "What is that supposed to mean...? Why are you being so hush-hush?" She demanded.

Shadow simply grinned and a Metarex Scar-ship came into through the Ship's windows.

"Well done, White Seed." A metallic voiced boomed from the ship. "You're mission is complete. We no longer need your aid."

Tails and Kat turned to look at the massive ship. They were silent as they finally realized what was happening. Something caught Kat's eye. Well, more like something missing caught her eye. "Hey!" Kat looked at where Cosmo was just standing. "Cosmo is gone! So is Shadow!"
