after flying for a while Rouge The Bat had arrived at Lava Lair where she spotted the black hedgehog & his motorcycle finishing his best lap around the race track she flew down landing on the track itself when Shadow came across the finish line .
Shadow : Rouge
Rouge : long time no see
Shadow : what brings you here ?
Rouge : i was stopping by to see if you were alright
Shadow : i'm fine nothing serious is going
Rouge : right
Shadow : Zobiko the racer that is with us was transformed into a human after being hit by the doctor's gun accidentally
Rouge : is she safe ?
Shadow : yeah she's fine
Rouge : what about the doctor ?
Shadow : he's working on a serum to change her back to her original form
Rouge : i see so Sonic convinced him to do so ?
Shadow : yep that was Knuckles told me before him . Sonic & Tails went to see her
Rouge : wish the best for her that she'll overcome this
Shadow : she'll well i have faith in her
Rouge : that's good
Shadow : i just finished my best lap time here so would you like to ride on the back of the Dark Rider ?
Rouge : of course
he gets on the Dark Rider first then Rouge gets on the motorcycle also wraps her arms around him and the Black Hedgehog takes off on the Lava Lair race track moving extremely fast with the wind hitting her face enjoying the breeze also avoiding the lava hitting the track and the lava on the track itself the jewel thief was enjoying the ride with the ultimate life form.
Rouge : that was the best i didn't know that you were a good motorcycle rider
Shadow : yeah i have been like that since my own game and 06 plus i had passed my motorcycle license as well
Rouge : that's amazing
Shadow : you think so ?
Rouge : yep it is like you
Shadow : that means something coming from you
Rouge : yeah and besides i haven't been in a racing game with cars other than the adventure 2 & riders trilogy
Shadow : hopefully you get your chance to drive along side me and the others
Rouge : yeah me & Omega will like it
Shadow : i'm looking forward to the reunion of Team Dark
Rouge : i will as well
Shadow : hope to see you again soon
Rouge : the same to you
after saying that she flies away from him and he smiles now having a friend and companion to fill the empty void in his heart & then he looked up the sky and a image appeared of Maria Robotnik , He continued to look up at the sky and he said " thank you for the great time " he rides away from the race track now with a positive look on life.
