I'm hyper! (hint,hint)

Eggman flipped the finger at Shadow.

"Grr… my life is sooo screwed…!" Shadow said.

Then he noticed that… everywhere around the room… were cracks… Probably due to the faulty building of this shit hole… But… that can be broken… right? Knuckles!

Shadow grabbed Knuckles. "Knuckles… can you break those cracks in the walls?" he asked.

"Err… yeah…" Knuckles said. He went into the huge room. Shadow sensed something wrong… Why would Eggman just let Knuckles in there without stopping him? It could be because he's stupid… or because it's a trap!

Shadow ran in the room and pushed Knuckles out. The room slammed close.

"Whoa… didn't see that coming…" Knuckles said.

"Why… did he save you?" Rouge asked.

I knew it… he has gotten braver…but how?

"No! I can't get stuck in here! How am I going to get out?" he asked himself, nervously.

Robots fell from the ceiling. From the outside of the room, everyone heard the loud metallical thumps. Shadow… no…

Amy took her hammer out. She turned to Eggman. "Okay, asshole… how do I open the fucking door?" she asked angrily.

"Why should I tell you?" Eggman asked.

"Grr… because I can do this!" Amy yelled hitting him with her hammer a million times… Eggman fainted from the bruises and the hurt…

"Grr…" Amy growled.

She took her hammer and tried to pound the door open. Knuckles helped.

"I want to help, because he helped me…" Knuckles said.

Tails picked up the pieces of metal surrounding Eggman. "I have an idea…" he said.

Inside the room…

Shadow started kicking the robots down… but every time he destroyed one, another would appear from the ceiling.

Outside the room…

"Are you finished yet, Tails?" Sonic asked.

"No… not yet…" he said, building something from the scrap metal.

Amy was hammering the door down. Although no one saw or heard, she was crying softly. The door didn't budge, even after Knuckles's strong punches. Knuckles already gave up after the door had almost broken his hand. Amy didn't give up. Rouge mended to Knuckles's… knuckles.

She kept hammering the door. Eggman regained consciousness. "That won't work… The door has 4 layers of metallix… it can't be budged…" he said, afraid to get hammered.

"Unless it gets disintegrated…" Tails said.

"Umm… yes…" Eggman said.

Amy kept hammering the door. She blocked out all the noises around her. Her concentration was focused on the door and Shadow.

Inside the room…

Shadow managed to crack a… crack… nothing… but a week old sandwich… He went to the very middle of the room… He jumped up and down in anger. "Why is my luck so bad?" he asked no one in particular.

He broke another crack using a robot. He had kicked the robot toward the crack. Every time he moved, his red streaks followed his blazing red eyes.

He moved toward the now opened crack. There wasn't anything inside. A robot surprised him from the back and kicked him backward. He fell into another robot. It started charging up it's laser… meanwhile, all the other ones did too.

What's this strange power I feel?

Outside the room…

Amy fell to her knees. She clenched her fists. She was crying a little harder now. Rouge walked up to her. "Amy? You okay?" she asked softly.

"No! What do you think? What would you do if that was Knuckles in there? Huh? Shadow prevented that… from happening… but now, instead of you… I'm the one who's distraught!" she said.

Rouge's eyes started twinkling with tears. Knuckles looked down. He wasn't a very emotional person.

Inside the room…

What is this? I've felt this before, I know… A huge flash of light surrounded Shadow. He closed his eyes. I know what I have to do…

He opened his eyes and looked at himself… silver with red stripes…

It's not done! You have to put up with me for a whole 'nother chapter… ShadTikal4ever… you rockness!
