Manic is down in the basement with his band mates they all are freaking out about the change of date for the cut off.
"Why did she do THIS!!" Chris yells out holding fur
"I'm not sure...she probably thought we were ready?" Roxie reply's
"No. She did this for a reason, she knew we weren't ready..." Manic sighed looking at the floor.
"But you are!" Scourge jumps in
"How do you know, no offense, but...you were gone for two weeks, you haven't helped us..." Timber said in a shaky tone.
"I know...but I'm here now. We still have time, we just work hard all week!"
"Scourge is right! We need to stop frown at this sudden change and get a move on! Cancel everything for this week, because gang...were going to work hard." Manic said in a determined voice toward his friends.
They all nod in agreement and start to work on what they have been working on Manic and Scourge work together with the lyrics while Timber works with the sound and beat and Chris and Roxie play the sound they have. Everyone is working and makes excellent time.
'Buzz...Buzzz!'
"Manic your phones going off!" Timber yells over to Manic.
"Who's calling?"
"Umm.. you missed a call from your brother and just now your boyfriend!" Scourge frowns at that last part a little but no one noticed.
"I'll call him back" Manic then goes back to work with Scourge. Time goes on and then night begins to fall, 'Buzz...Buzzz!"
"It's him again Manic!" Timber picks up his phone and walks over to Manic.
"He can wai— oh...it's my brother...yeah I got to take this." Manic runs up the stairs and leaves the rest who are now taking a breather.
"Huh! I'm tired..." Roxie let's out
"Yeah no joke. I'm back hurts..." Timber begins
"That's why you sit down and do your work!" Chris growls
"Yo who's Manic brother?" Scourge asks. We're the others just look at him in shock.
"You don't know?" Chris let's out
"No. That's why I'm asking."
"Haahah! Oh my gosh you don't know!" The others all begin to laugh a little.
"What am I supposed to?" Scourge asked
"Hu...I just thought you-" Roxie was cut off by Manic coming down the stairs.
"Okay let's call it a night, I got to head home." Manic said
"Because your brother said so~" Roxie mocks
"Shut up!" Manic growled
"Let's just go I'm beat...practice tomorrow?" Timber yawned
"Yup!" They all replied
Everyone is now out the door and going there own ways.
"Manic!" Roxie calls out "you need a ride?"
"Uh-"
"No. I'll be taking him home.." Scourge jumps in before he can respond.
"Okay~ have fun you two~" she winks and drives off in her new car.
Which now leaves Scourge and Manic by themselves. Timber is spending the night with Chris, so yeah they alone. Scourge begins to walk which makes Manic start to walk to.
"So. Your taking me home?" Manic smiles
"Yeah. Just thought you would rather be outside than in a car."
"Heh. Your not wrong, I like the out doors!"
They walk a few more steps down the road until Scourge wanted to ask Manic Something.
"Manic?"
"Yeah!"
"You don't have to answer but...who's your brother?"
"Ohhhh..."
"Like I said you don't have to answer."
"No. I will, I just thought you knew?"
"Everyone said I would know but I don't?"
"Well...um promise me something?"
"Sure..."
"Don't freak out...please."
"Alright. Now tell me I'm interested, his he a criminal like you!"
"Hah! No the opposite actually!"
There was a short pause of silence but the air was heavy.
"Umm...it's...Sonic. Sonic the hedgehog..."
"WHAT!?"
"You said you wouldn't freak!!!"
"YEAH! BUT ITS SONIC THE FREAKING HEDGEHOG!!"
"What are you another fan?"
"HELLLLL NOOOO!"
"Humm?"
"I'm sorry to say this Manic, but...I.Hate.Your.Brother!"
"Really?"
"Yeah. Me and him just never got along, he threw me in jail!!"
"...you went to jail...?"
"Y-yeah. Long ago...look your brother and I ended on bad terms, that's all and I've honestly never liked him. Because of his stupid smug face..." Scourge growled under his breath. Manic was in shock everyone he has meet has been a big fan of his amazing brother 'The Hero Of Mobius!' Everyone said, but scourge was actually the first to hate him, that Manic has met.
"Oh my chaos, I'm so glad your nothing like your brother."
"R-really?...everybody always wanted me to be like him?"
"Pufft..I'm glad your not like him or I wouldn't have my partner in crime~"
"Partner?"
"Yeah. You know I thought we were. Cause you helped and saved me, from that gaurd."
"YEAH!...I like to be your Partner In Crime~"
"Great..."
They walk more and more until they reach the city line, then Scourge wanted to ask something again.
"Also Manic. Umm, where are you from?"
"What? How did you know I wasn't from here?"
"Just a guess? Also because you said you where on you own for many years so there's my clue."
"Well...I'm from a far far away place. Forgot the name..I think Tin?"
"Tin? Manic to no offense but...that sound like a trash town."
"Humph well sorry!"
"...my mistake..."
"It's okay. Yeah sure it did not have a glowing name, but it's where I was born and raised for 12 years..."
"When did you come to Mobius?"
"Four months ago"
"Wow. Not long. Why...why you come here?"
"Well, I had nowhere else to go. Then I heard about Mobius. I wanted to look for something...I wanted to Start Something New..."
"A new life?..."
"Yeah...but I fell back into my old habits, with stealing, I always had a problem, I got into so much trouble~"
"Sounds like fun~"
"Yeah it was nice. Until my dad found out"
"Yeah that can ruin the fun"
"Heh! Yup."
It was getting colder Scourge looks over at Mankc who is starting to shake, but he is trying to hide it, so Scourge hesitantly took off his leather jacket and stoped Manic to face him.
"Here.." Scourge blush a little at what he was doing, Manic only blushed because he was doing this.
"To keep you warm"
"Thank you"
They stare at one another for a moment but then looks away because they do not want to go into it. They walk more and more. Until Scourge finally picked Manic up and ran super fast done the road.
"Whoa! Scourge slow down!!"
"Alright"
They stop in place then Manic begins to talk.
"What the hell! Give me a heads up please!"
"Fine. Kill joy"
Manic just looks at him still in his arms...he's so warm Manic thought, but looks away again.
"Heh. Just take me home...please."
"As you wish"
They began to run again Manic told him where he lived and they soon arrived there in just 3 minutes. Scourge puts Manic down and walks him to his door.
"Thanks. For the fast run~"
"No problem. See you tomorrow~"
"WAIT! Your jacket!"
"Keep it for tonight looks better on you~"
Manic nods and walks inside then goes to his room. Scourge walks away with smile on his face. A real smile that felt really good. He felt really good.
