-Sky P.O.V.-

We made it to a small hideout. There was a few people here, considering how small it is. I looked around and sighed.

"Don't leave my side." I heard Sonic said.

I looked at him and sighed.

"Got it." I said.

Manic walked off.

"Catch up with you two later!" Manic shouted.

"What is up with him?" Sonic asked.

I shrugged. Did Midnight tell him how I feel about Sonic? I will have to ask her when we get back.

"Anyway, I see Lilith, come on." Sonic explained as he started walking.

I followed, then saw a white tiger with blue eyes. She looked over, then smiled.

"Sonic, it's been a while!" she shouted.

"It has Lilith." Sonic said.

So this is Lilith.

"And who is this?" Lilith asked, looking at me.

"Sky, a close friend of mine." Sonic replied.

I looked at him, then at Lilith. Close friend huh? Didn't think we were that close. It's nice.

"Hi." I whispered.

"Are you okay?" Lilith asked worried, walking up to me.

I looked at her shock.

"You look a bit pale?" Lilith asked.

"She's recovering." Sonic replied"

"Recovering?" Lilith said confused.

"Um, I have the ability to teleport to places as long as I can see it or have been there before. Sometimes, it takes a toll on me." I explained.

"Really? That is so cool." Lilith said walking back.

I sighed. Lilith seems… nice. That fact she was worried about me, even though she doesn't even know me, is nice.

"Come on, the supplies are this way." Lilith said walking off.

"She's in a good mood." Sonic said as we followed her.

We then saw a dark green fox working on a few things by some creates. He looked over and smiled.

"Is everything done Dominic?" Lilith asked.

"Yup, last things just arrived." Dominic replied as we walked over.

"That's a lot." Sonic said.

"Well, maybe it is." Lilith said.

"I'll bring the van closer if that is okay with you." Sonic said.

"Good idea." Dominic said, then looked at me.

I looked at him worried as Sonic walked off.

"I feel like I have seen you before." Dominic said.

"Well I haven't seen you before, sorry." I said looking away.

"Dominic, what are you doing?" I heard Lilith asked.

I looked over to see Dominic who was holding a gun. Before I could react, he shot me in the upper arm. I cry out in pain as I place my hand over the wound and walked back.

"Dominic!" I heard Manic shout.

He then ran over and punch Dominic.

"What the hell!?" Manic asked, then ran over to me.

"I'll get the first aid." Lilith said running off.

I moaned in pain. It hurts more than I remember.

"Where is Sonic?" Manic asked.

Then the van pulled up and Manic sighed. Sonic got out and looked at us worried, then saw the blood running down my arm and he goes into shock as he ran over.

"What happened?" Sonic asked worried.

"Dominic shot her." Manic replied. "Get her in the van, Lilith is getting the first aid kit." Manic told Sonic.

Sonic nod as he wrapped an arm around me and guide me into van. I sighed. I sat down and Sonic sighed.

"Let me look." Sonic said.

I moved my hand and Sonic got a better looked at my arm.

"I don't remember getting shot hurting this much." I said.

"Still, this never should have happened." Sonic said as Lilith runs over.

"Here." Lilith said, handing the first aid kit to Sonic.

"Thanks." Sonic said.

Lilith ran off. I sighed. Sonic started taking care of my arm. He was so close.

"Are you okay?" Sonic asked.

I looked at him. We were close. I nod.

"Yeah, just stings." I said.

"It will for a while." Sonic said, looking at me, then at my wounded arm.

I looked away.

"Almost done." Sonic said.

"Already?" I asked, looking at my arm.

"Yeah, I'll have to get a better look back at the hideout." Sonic explained.

"Good idea." I admitted.

"Just take it easy." Sonic told me.

"I will." I said. "Midnight isn't going to be happy." I added.

"I'm sure we can work something out." Sonic said.

I nod. This was, nice. I looked at Sonic and goes red, he was so close.

"Are you okay? You're going red." Sonic asked worried.

"Yeah." I replied, quickly looking away. "You're close, that's all." I added softly.

"Ah right, sorry." Sonic said.

I looked at him as he walked back.

"Stay here, I'll get the supplies." Sonic told me as he walked off.

"Okay." I said, right before he walked out.

I sighed. How did Midnight and Manic even admitted to each other their feelings? I sighed. It doesn't matter at the moment.

-Manic P.O.V.-

I walked to Lilith who has her arms cross.

"I can't believe that idiot!" Lilith shouted.

"Calm down." I told her. "Any ideas on why he shot Sky?" I asked.

"None." Lilith replied.

I looked over to see Sonic packing the supplies and sighed.

"I guess it doesn't matter. Looks like Sonic is getting the supplies in." I said.

"You better help him." Lilith said.

I nod as I walked over.

"Hey bro." Sonic greeted, walking back.

"Is everything okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, sooner we get this packed, sooner I can get Sky back to treat her arm. It's wrapped now, but I want to get Chuck to check it out. He's better at these kind of things." Sonic explained.

"Ah, good idea." I said as I started helping.

I followed Sonic into the van to see Sky sitting at the front. I sat my box down, then walks over to her. Sky looked at me.

"Hey Manic." Sky whispered.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, it just hurts a lot. Don't remember being shot hurting this much, but then again, I was a machine for three years." Sky explained as Sonic walked over.

"Just take it easy and stay there. We will get the rest of the stuff and go." Sonic explained.

Sky nod. Sonic walked off and Sky sighed.

"Give it time." I said.

"Right." Sky said. "Out of you and Midnight, who confused their feelings first?" Sky asked softly.

I smiled.

"I did." Manic replied.

"I see." Sky said.

"As I said, give it time." I told her.

Sky nod. I walked out as Sonic walked over and in. This was crazy, but who do I get Sonic to confuse to me that he has feelings for Sky. Sonic isn't the type to talk about his emotions or feelings. Not that I know of. Maybe I have to get Midnight to talk to Sky about it more.
