Shadow likes Amy, Rouge likes Knuckles, but neither of their pursuits have been going too swimmingly. The two strike up a deal, one that cannot be broken no matter what- be going out with their crush within a month, or be forced to go on a date with each other. Only bad can come from this. (ShadAmy, Knuxouge, Shadouge).

When Shadow 'accidentally' floods his apartment, he needs to find a temporary home. So naturally, he goes to his precious ally, Rouge the Bat. But will the Ultimate Lifeform be able to handle his best friend's crazy sexcapades, seductive charm, and bad thieving habits? {Shadow/Rouge, at long last.}
