Chapter 11! If I've done my math right, only about 3 more chapters left! In the next chapter, we'll see Huri's past! I may not own Sonic, but I do own her! Being the nice person that I am, I won't claim her. So that means other people can use her! Read and Review people! I love you all! PS: THE TIME DEAD LINE FOR ROUGE IS 9:00AM OK!

Chapter Eleven: Discovery!

Tails woke up with a sudden start.

" Oh no! I fell asleep!"

The gas had automatically shut off when the reserve tank was full. It was now 3:00AM in the morning. He was thankful that Knuckles hadn't woken him up. Tails grabbed the CED and ran over to the X-Tornado. He had to install it quickly, who knows how long he'd have until Knuckles woke up.

" I've gotta finish this quickly!"

(One Hour Later.)

" I'm finished!" Tails yelled excitedly.

Amy and Knuckles ran into the room, while Cream just got up off the couch.

" So we can go find Rouge now?" Knuckles asked.

Tails nodded happily, but then frowned.

" Where's Sonic?"

Amy sighed as she walked away, towards the rooms.

" SONIC! WAKE YOUR BLUE ASS UP!"

The trio covered their ears, and sure enough a blue blur came running out of a room.

" Someone help! She's throwing Tails' inventions at me!"

Tail ran at them after hearing Sonic.

" Amy put that down! My house is already messed up!"

By the time they were done, Sonic was cowering behind Knuckles, Tails was holding Amy and Cream was shaking her head, standing between the two groups.

" Can we please be civilized people and go find Rouge now?" Cream asked.

Everyone nodded as they got into the X-Tornado.

" Lets hope this works," Tails said as he flipped the switch to activate the CED.

The screen lit up and the words "Chaos Emerald Detector Online" appeared. The group cheered and patted Tails on the back. Tails looked at the CED and his smile turned into a frown.

" That can't be right."

" What's wrong little buddy?" Sonic asked as Tails got out of the plane.

" The Chaos Emeralds are close to us."

" Then Rouge is too. C'mon on we're wasting time Tails!" Knuckles yelled.

" Cream, read me the coordinates of the Chaos Emeralds please?"

Cream nodded, " 135 degrees west and 15 degrees north."

Tails typed the coordinates into his computer; a map with a little blinking light came up.

" I knew it. We've wasted our time."

He walked over to the X-Tornado and began to unhook the CED. Everyone stared at him.

" What are you doing Tails?" Amy asked.

" Unhooking the CED, Eggman hid his base underwater. We're going to need two groups to pull this off."

Sonic stared, " pull what off?"

" One group will attack the base from underwater using my submarine to force the base into the air. Once he's in the air, group two will board the base and rescue Rouge."

" How do you know that the base can fly?"

" Because it's not a base, it's the Egg Carrier Sonic."

" How do you know?"

" Same size and same shape."

" Who's in what group?"

" Knuckles, Cream and you in the X-Tornado; Amy and me in the submarine."

" Why do I have to be in the sub?"

" Relax Amy, as soon as the first group boards the Egg Carrier Cream will swing around and grab us so we can help."

Amy nodded, " okay then."

The clock on the wall read 4:00AM. Cream, Sonic and Knuckles jumped into the X-Tornado while Amy and Tails ran downstairs to his submarine. Cream jumped into the pilot's seat and put on the headset. Tails put oh his head set and smiled.

" Cream do you read me? Over."

" I read you Tails. We are in the hanger preparing for take off. What's you status? Over."

" We're getting ready to drop into the ocean. Over."

" Tails someone is knocking on your door, want me to answer it?"

He could hear Knuckles in the back round yelling that it wasn't important.

" Yeah, but tell them we are leaving so who ever it is can't stay ok?"

" Okay. Hold on. Over."

Cream got out of her seat and walked over to the door. Omega, the robot that had betrayed Eggman stood there.

" Omega, what are you doing here? Can you hold on a second please?"

" Affirmative, will wait for you to come back."

Cream nodded and ran back to the hanger and grabbed the headset.

" Tails, its Omega."

" Really? Um, ask him what he wants."

" Right."

Cream ran back, with the head set on, to Omega.

" Ok, I'm back, what do you need Omega?"

" I've been looking for Rouge for a long time. I would like to know if she is here, or if you have any information about her."

Cream nodded, " she's been captured by Eggman. We are going to get her now."

The robot's eyes glowed red, " I will accompany you then. I must destroy Eggman."

" Tails, do you read me?"

" Yea Cream I do. What does he want?"

" He wants to come with us. Maybe Amy can ride in the X-Tornado and Omega in the submarine."

" That sounds like a good idea. Is he okay with that?"

" That is fine with me," Omega said.

" Okay. You can ride in the sub with me."

" What do you mean with you Cream? I'm piloting the submarine."

" Omega can help me pilot it Tails. You can fly the X-Tornado; we need our strongest in the first group. I'll only slow them down, then when I board with Omega, he can protect me. It's better that way."

Tails' voice came in a few seconds later, " okay. Omega you had better take care of her. If she's hurt, not only will I have your head but so will her mother got it?"

" Affirmative Tails. I will not let Cream be harmed."

Omega walked inside and ran down stairs with Cream, while Tails and Amy ran upstairs.

They gave each other a thumbs up. Then continued on their way. The group of four got in the X-Tornado. Sonic and Knuckles sat on the wings, while Amy and Tails were in the plane.

" Ready for take off?"

Everyone nodded as Tails turned the plane on.

" Okay, X-Tornado taking off!"

Cream sat in the sub with Omega, explaining the plan.

" Once the Egg Carrier rises from the ocean, Tails, Amy, Sonic and Knuckles will land and attack. Then we'll surface, and dock on the Egg Carrier. Got it Omega?"

" Affirmative Cream. Now, lets get going."

Cream nodded and pressed some buttons; the next thing she knew water was surrounding the submarine.

She hit more buttons and they were moving. The little clock in the submarine read 5:00AM. The wind hit Knuckles' face; they were finally on their way. ' I'm on my way Rouge. I'm on my way.'

Rouge looked at the clock, it read 5:00AM. Only two more hours until they put their plan into action. A robot came in, dragging someone behind it.

" Let me go you piece of scrap! I swear, when I get out of here you're gunna be the first thing I destroy!"

The voice was female, that she could tell. Shadow's eyes widened as he stood up and ran to the metal bars.

" Let her go! If you hurt her I'll kill you!"

Rouge just stared in confusion. ' What's going on?' The cage door opened, and someone was thrown in the cell, she hit the wall hard and just lay there unmoving.

" Huri!" Shadow yelled as he ran over to her.

Rouge also stood and walked over to her. The robot just stood there.

" Master Robotnic says make another escape attempt and he'll just kill you. He also says as punishment, no meals for you at all today Huri."

Shadow turned her over, she was unconscious, but still alive, he placed his gloved hand on her forehead. He felt something wet. He placed the glove under his nose and sniffed it. His eyes widened, blood was on his glove. He let a growl escape his lips.

" Tell your master when I get a hold of him, I'll kill him for hurting her!" Shadow yelled as he ran at the robot.

He stopped as the chain yanked at him; the robot was only a few inches away from him. The robot lifted his gun arm and shot a wave of electricity at Shadow. He didn't scream in pain, but Rouge knew it hurt. He instantly went to his knees, but he didn't scream. He wouldn't allow himself to scream.

Soon the electricity stopped and the robot left. Shadow stood and made his way over to the two girls. Huri's head was on Rouge lap. Rouge was taking in her features. She was a hedgehog, like Shadow, Amy and Sonic.

Her quills were longer than Amy's, and her hot pink bangs stuck to her forehead. Her fur was black, but her quills had hot pink streaks in it. She was wearing a hot pink tube top, black pants, pink fingerless gloves, and boots like Amy's but they were pink instead of red. She opened her eyes, which were a light pink color.

"Ow, my head. Did someone get the license plate on that bus?"

Shadow smirked, " sure did, said Eggman on it."

Huri growled at Shadow, " shut up!"

She tried to push herself up into a sitting position but Rouge pushed her back down.

" You need to stay still, until you're cut stops bleeding."

Huri stared at Rouge, " I know I've seen you before, but where?"

" I'm Rouge the Bat."

" Right, now I know where you were on the news after the Metal Overlord incident. Has it stopped bleeding yet?"

Rouge smiled, Huri's voice sounded soft, yet strong and proud at the same time. (A/N: If you watch Wolfs Rain, think Blue!)

Shadow's smirk faded, " I thought I told you to run and escape Huri."

Huri frowned and turned her head towards the cell bars.

" I know. I remember it all. I'm sorry Shadow. I tried, I really did," she felt tears in her eyes but quickly wiped them away, " but the base, it's underwater! I tried to find the escape pods but a robot knocked me out. Then I was dragged back here! I'm sorry."

Shadow smiled a genuine smile and sat down next to her and Rouge. He began to stroke her quills lightly.

" It's okay Huri. We have a plan, we are going to get out of here, don't you worry."

He saw the tears in her eyes and wiped them away gently, " it's okay to cry Huri. I've done it myself before."

Rouge smiled and helped Huri into a sitting position, " yeah, within a week I've probably lost about a forth of my weight because I've cried so much."

Huri smiled as the tears began to stream down her cheeks. She pulled her knees to her forehead and began to really cry. Before Rouge could react, Shadow had pulled Huri into his chest. She immediately released her knees and began crying into his chest. Rouge smiled as she began pat Huri on the back.
