Thanks for everyone who's reviewed!
Rouge sighed after Shadow and Sonic left with Knuckles. Knuckles was unconscious the whole time and Rouge was grateful for this.
Thank you so much… I'm so happy that Knuckles didn't wake up… Rouge sighed. It was night. 8:00-ish.
"Rouge… you look… stressed out… maybe you should go on a walk…" Amy said.
It was true… Rouge was very stressed out. She sighed then nodded. "Yes, Amy… maybe that'll be a good idea…" Rouge said.
Rouge grabbed her keys and put it in her pocket. She smiled at Amy, thanking her for her concern, then left. She went walking in the dark streets of Station Square… she sighed as she sat down on a park bench. Some of the lanterns in the park were on. They surrounded the dark place with a beaming glow.
Rouge saw something under the beam of light, it was Knuckles! He still had his bandages on, a few bruises, and a black eye. Aside from that, he looked… angry.
Rouge cowered in fear. She knew that no one would save her now. Knuckles walked up to her… but stayed a fair distance away from her. He sighed.
"Sonic and Shadow… told me that you helped me…" he breathed out.
Rouge nodded. She was gripping onto the edges of the bench.
"S-s-so… you… aren't mad at me anymore?" Rouge stuttered out.
Knuckles looked at her. He still looked angry.
"No… I'm not mad…"
Rouge sighed.
"I'm furious! I got beat up, and you never stopped him?"
"But, Knuckles…" she pleaded. "You beat me up…" she said, in fear.
He sighed. "No… I punished you… for what you did was just wrong…" Knuckles said.
Rouge had tears in her eyes. "I said sorry! You care more for that stupid emerald than me!" she yelled.
He swiped he right hand from under the bench. "If it wasn't for that 'stupid' emerald… you wouldn't be here right now…" he said.
She was crying even more now. Someone jumped down from the tree above her. He took Knuckles's grip off of Rouge's arm. This time, Rouge saw everything that was happening… except… who her hero was. She was intrigued by his fighting ability. It consisted of various somersaults and kicks. It seemed to her, that he had powerful legs… for running and kicking.
Then, he must be really fast… yet powerful at the same time…The hedgehog grabbed her arm. "Chaos… Control!" he said.
They disappeared in a flash of light and appeared in a dark alley.
It didn't sound like the way Shadow would use an emerald, for he always says something about the ultimate. Who is this person? I can't recognize their voice or anything…
The hedgehog was about to speed away when Rouge grabbed his arm. She looked into his eyes and found silver eyes. Silver? Maybe they're contacts… His silver eyes glittered in the moonlight.
"Wait…" Rouge said. "Please… tell me your name…"
"How about… every time I save you… I tell you one thing about myself… until you can guess who I am…" the hedgehog asked.
She smiled and nodded. "That means you give me two…"
"One from now… and one from Angel Island…" he said. "I'll go from the more minor details… to the major ones… okay?" he asked.
Rouge nodded, the voice soothed her.
"Okay… I'm a boy hedgehog that you know… and… silver isn't my real eye color…" he muttered. He ran away, leaving Rouge smiling.
She went back home. She went upstairs this time. She fell on her bed and went to sleep.
The next day, she woke up to find Sonic look her straight in the eye… he stared directly into her eyes. Her head jerked up, hitting Sonic on the head. He closed his eyes and held his head. Shadow was sitting on a chair in her room, listening to his CD player.
Rouge was wide-eyed. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS DOING IN MY ROOM?" she asked loudly.
Sonic and Shadow looked at her, she suddenly realized that they both had silver eyes.
She gasped.
"What? You like my contacts?" Sonic asked, pointing to his silver eyes.
"Shadow! What about you, why do you have silver eyes?" Rouge asked.
He sighed. "Because last night, after we got Knuckles back to Angel Island, Sonic splashed water on me… from a puddle. So, my system got malfunctioned…"
"Yeah, right… or… it was because of your little detour at the park!" Sonic said.
"You were there too!" Shadow said.
"Yeah, but we got separated… so I don't know if you changed your eye color on purpose!" Sonic said.
"When did you go to the park last night?" Rouge asked.
"8:00-ish…" they both said.
That's it… so… everyone guess who it is… R+R!
