Shadow's Secret
Chapter Two
For the disclaimer, just read the first chapter. It gets really boring writing it over and over again...
Summary: Shadow saw Tikal's Shadow-ized room, and Shadow fled. Now, Kai and Jayln are trying to get Shadow to realize his feelings, whilst Tails and Vinny try to help out Tikal. There's only one minor snag...
"HOLY COW!" Tails exclaimed when he saw Tikal's room. Vinny had to hold in a laugh at Tails' remark. Tikal looked like she was going to burst into tears.
"You can probably guess from this my feelings. I just...please don't tell anyone, guys. Please." Tikal said. Vinny nodded, and Tails gave Tikal a thumbs up. Tails then looked out the window, and saw Sonic staring in. Sonic then dashed off.
"Tikal, Sonic was just looking through the window!" Tails exclaimed. Tikal gasped.
"Here, I'll go make sure he doesn't spread the news around." Vinny said. He jumped through the window, which was miraculously open, and ran off. Tikal was left in her room with Tails.
"So...wanna try on a pink, frilly dress?" Tikal asked Tails.
Back at Shadow's House...
"I'M NOT WEARING A FRILLY PINK DRESS!" Shadow roared. Jayln and Kai shrugged. Just at the moment, Sonic ran into the house.
"Hey Shadow, I just saw..." Sonic started. Vinny then ran up from behind and tackled him, Sonic's face smashing into the carpet.
"Shadow. He knows." Vinny said. Shadow looked down at the floor. Jayln and Kai exchanged worried glances. Vinny looked at Jayln.
"Kai, you told Jayln? We promised we wouldn't mention it!" Vinny yelled. Kai looked down. Vinny then remembered something.
"I better head back. I don't want to leave Tails with Tikal all alone. She might make him wear a dress or something." Vinny said. Vinny tossed Sonic at Shadow, who caught him with one hand. Vinny waved, and ran out the door, but not before glaring at Kai.
"That was...interesting." Jayln said. She looked at Kai. Kai shrugged. They turned back to Shadow, and tied him to a chair. In front of him, they took Vinny's camcorder and started showing films of Shadow and Tikal. Shadow watched unwillingly.
Back at Tikal's house...
Tails was whimpering. He was wearing a frilly pink dress, and was being given a makeover by Tikal. Vinny chose that moment to jump back through the window, or at least attempt to. He hit the glass, and slid back down. Tikal opened the window, and Vinny jumped through, clutching his nose.
"Tails, you look like a girl!" Vinny said, roaring with laughter. Tails glared. Tikal got a little angry.
"He's doing this for my sake. At least it's cheering me up." said Tikal. Vinny looked down. There was a loud scream, and Vinny looked up. Tikal was being carried by one of Eggman's robots! Tails used his tails and broke free of the ropes. Tails flew towards the robots, Vinny right next to him, when they were hit by stun darts. They fell, knocked out, to the floor, Tikal screaming for help.
A few hours later, Tails woke up. He stood up, a little shaky, and looked down. Vinny was just waking up too.
"Ugh...what happened last night?" Vinny said. Tails then remembered with a start.
"Tikal! Eggman's robots got Tikal!" Tails exclaimed. Vinny looked at Tails in horror. Vinny then winced as he felt the back of his neck.
"Ouch...that must have been where the dart hit...Look, we need Shadow, Kai, Jayln, and...although I wish we didn't...Sonic." Vinny said. Tails sighed, and then nodded. The two of them jumped though the window, and jumped off Angel Island.
"Hey Tails? How is it that I can't fly, yet I still jumped off Angel Island?" Vinny asked Tails. Tails shrugged, and started flying, his tails spinning rapidly.
"TAILS!" Vinny yelled, falling faster. Tails looked down and saw land was approaching fast. Tails sighed and flew down. He managed to grab Vinny's wrist.
"Well, that could have gone better." Vinny said. Tails rolled his eyes.
"Do you want me to let go?" Tails asked Vinny. Vinny looked at Tails in horror.
"No! I'd die!" Vinny said. Tails rolled his eyes again, and they landed. Tails then realized something.
"How'd you survive falling in the past?" Tails asked. Vinny pointed to a large crater a few feet away, then started walking away. Tails laughed, and caught up to Vinny.
Roughly eight minutes later, they arrived at Shadow's house, and walked in. They saw Shadow, Kai, and Jayln in the same positions as before. Sonic was lying on the floor, sleeping.
"We have an emergency!" Tails yelled. Jayln and Kai jumped, Shadow fell on his face from the chair, and Sonic woke up, and walked into the railing.
"Tikal's been kidnapped!" Tails exclaimed. Jayln gasped. Shadow shrugged, not really caring.
"That's awful! We have to save her!" Kai said. Tails came up with a plan, and rather quickly.
"We need to divide into groups. Preferably a fast person with a strong person." Tails said. Jayln then moved next to Shadow. Tails moved next to Sonic. All that was left were Kai and Vinny.
"Fine, but you better be nice!" Kai said. Vinny looked at her weirdly. Tails pulled out a computer, and started typing. After a few seconds, they heard "WELCOME TO THE EGGMAN EMPIRE"S OFFICIAL WEBSITE!" from the computer. Tails then started typing frantically.
"Guys, he's somewhere in a forest nearby." Tails said. Everyone nodded. When everyone went to leave, Kai glared at Vinny, then walked out the door.
'Oh crap, she's still mad at me? This will be a long journey...' Vinny thought.
Heh, that's the end of Chapter Two. I believe I've made it clear who's friendship is being tested at the moment, but not what Shadow's secret is. Yeah, please keep reviewing...and I guess that's it. Later!
