CHAPTER 10
Shadow opened his eyes. He was in a bed in a white room. He was hooked up to a respirator and an IV. He looked beside him to see Sonic in the same state, Knuckles, Tikal, Tails and Amy Rose standing worriedly over him. He looked straight ahead of him and noticed that Lexxon and Kilashandra were here also. Lexxon laid in a bed and Kilashandra looked down at him smiling with relief. Lexxon looked back at her, smiling weakly. She walked over to the curtain and drew it around them.
"Look! Rouge! He's awake!" Amy Rose shouted and pointed at Shadow. She walked over to him as he tried to get up. He removed the respirator from his face and sat up as best as he could.
"Yeah well, honey, you had better get a look at your boyfriend here because he is up, too." Rouge said.
"Wow!" She twirled around happily and looked at both the boys. She jumped up and down excitedly and giggled. "Yippee!"
"Amy. calm down." Sonic said weakly, removing the respirator as well.
"Yeah. It's not like we were dead." Shadow said coldly.
"Burr." Amy faked a shiver. Shadow sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Well, you both were out for quite awhile. Almost a week now!" Rouge said.
"What about Lexxon?" Shadow said. His thoughts were interrupted when the door opened. The old man and the old woman stood there. Shadow looked at Tails.
"Their son was alive, I had to tell them." He said blushing.
They walked to the drawn curtain with tears in their eyes.
"I helped to restore him with Knuckles." Tikal said.
"Tikal, how did you get here anyway?" Sonic asked.
"When Chaos and I disappeared, we went back into the Master Emerald but, I think that I am all done. I have decided to stay out. Chaos is at the Chao garden, watching over the children." Tikal smiled warmly, "I have too much to live for to be stuck inside some jewel forever!"
"Hey," Knuckles said, "That 'some jewel' is the Master Emerald. Treat it with respect." Sonic laughed.
"You are like in love with that thing, aren't you?" Knuckles blushed in embarrassment.
"Shut up!"
"Any way, I'm glad you are both okay." Tails said.
"What about Seriano?" Sonic asked.
"It's funny, when you two passed out, he disappeared." Amy Rose explained.
"Hmm," Shadow mumbled.
"And the Chaos Emeralds?" Sonic asked.
"They are back at Angel Island with the Master Emerald." Knuckles explained.
"Well, I want to get out of this bed!" Sonic said. "I'm alright now! So lets go now!"
"Hold on there, Sonic." Knuckles said. He got up and went out the door. He returned a few minutes later with the doctor.
"Can we leave, doc?" Sonic asked.
"Well, aren't we eager to leave?" the doctor asked. Shadow looked at him.
"Duh. Of course!" Shadow said.
"Well, I think that you can. As far as I know, you are not injured at all. As long as you stop running for a couple of days, Mr. Hedgehog, I think you will be fine." He said. Sonic looked like the world was coming to an end. He screeched.
"NO WAY!!"
Amy Rose nudged Sonic. "Oh Sonic, it is only a couple of days!"
Sonic hung his head and everyone laughed.

EPILOGUE
Shadow stood on the edge of the lake in the Mystic Ruins. He looked at the green grass and the waterfall. He was in deep thought as he stood there. He felt a warm hand slip into his own and someone's head rest on his shoulder. He looked beside him to see Tails. Tails looked at him.
"Shadow, lets go for a walk. I want to talk to you." Shadow nodded and followed Tails to the steps leading to his house and workshop. They walked down the hidden runway to the end and sat down. The sun was just setting and turned the sky a rainbow of yellows, oranges, reds, pinks, purples and the twilight blue with stars beginning to show. The moon was just rising as well in its quartered state. Tails looked to Shadow.
"Shadow, Thanks a bunch for helping me out these past couple of weeks. Really, I couldn't have done it without you." Shadow blushed.
"Oh well, I." Shadow paused. "Tails, I came to realize something."
"Mmm? What is it?" Tails asked.
"Tails, These few weeks." Shadow paused again. "Sorry it's hard to say this sort of thing."
Tails blushed. "Shadow whatever it is, you can tell me." Shadow looked at Tails blushing heavily.
"What I mean to say is that. umm, I. I." He paused again and looked at Tails. "I love you, Tails. If anything were to happen to you, I wouldn't know what to do with myself."
Tears came into Tails' eyes and Shadow hugged him. "Hey Tails. Are you-"
"Oh Shadow! I-I love you, too." Shadow blushed even more. Tails looked at him. Shadow pulled him close and kissed him softly on the lips.
Tails gently pushed him away after a moment. "Shadow, will you stay with me a little longer?"
"I will be here as long as you need me, Tails."
And thus, with the sky turning dark purple and the stars and moon shining brightly, Tails and Shadow sat together; Innocence colored in Black and Orange.
