Another chapter!

(everyone glares at her)

What?

"You said that you started this right after the other one…" Shadow glared.

Alright! I didn't start it and it's late! Give me a break!

"Here!" Tails hands over a Kit-Kat bar.

(everyone else still glares)

What?

"I read this chapter…" Sonic said.

Oh, well, ok! I tried to write humor, though I don't think it turned out so well, so…Please don't get mad!

RemedyTheThief: Hey! You are the other Sonic fan that reviews for Ivy: Shaman Runaway! (Awesome story btw for those interested.) Yes, Sonamy, though I don't think it will be here till the end, but it will be there, however sucky it will be!

ChrissieGirl: Thank you! You think my story's gonna be good! (IN YOUR FACE EGGMAN! (Eggman pouts)) Yes, another Sonamy fan, though it might be awhile, I'll see what I can do. (looks at Sonic and Amy)

(Sonic shakes head, Amy nods head)

I'll try, I'll try.

Disclaimer: I own Shadow the Hedgehog! What? You didn't know that it was opposite day? So, You don't sell Light the Hedgehog…Or we could just stick with I don't own Shadow the Hedgehog.

Amy Rose sighed, sitting in her beach chair at the dock. In her hands was a newspaper clipping she acquired a few days ago. On it showed her hero, Sonic the Hedgehog running with his back turned away from the camera, with two things grasped in his hands, a frog and a chao.

"Ahh, I wonder where Sonic is." Amy groaned, staring at the picture.

Suddenly, a sea breeze kicked up and blew the picture out of her loose hand, sending it flying high into the sky. Amy swiftly stood up on the chair and sadly watched the photograph sail into the distant blue sky, until something rose to catch it.

A tan colored bunny and cyan chao glided on the wind, the bunny using her ears to flap and almost grabbed the paper in her hand, until an updraft carried it higher. Then the chao with its little pink wings quickly rode the updraft, catching the paper. Drifting back down the ground, the golden rabbit put her hands on her little orange dress and gave Amy the meanest look she could muster, which wasn't that mean.

"Amy, please be more careful with our only clue." Cream said, wagging her finger.

"You're right, I'm sorry." She apologized.

Abruptly, a huge gust of wind raged under Cream's little ears, making her rise up into the air, uncontrollably. Cream was tossing and turning in the air, holding onto the newspaper for dear life while her chao, Cheese flew beside her.

With a quick snag, a fishing line wrapped itself around the 6-year-olds ankle and yanked her back down towards the ground. Just before she hit, a light brown umbrella opened but under her butt, making her bounce only to be caught by a pair of big purple arms.

"Nice catch, Big!" Amy cried, running up to meet Cream.

The lavender giant chuckled, his stomach nodding up and down as he set Cream's feet back on the safety of the wooden dock.

When Cream handed the photo back to Amy, everyone took a depressed sigh.

"Froggy…" Big whispered, looking at the toad in the image.

"Chocola…" Cream trailed off, gazing at the chao.

"Don't worry you guys! You know we'll find them!" Amy cheered up, "No use standing around here, c'mon let's get going!"

"Ok!" shouted Cream.

"Okie Dokie!" applauded Big the Cat.

Amy dashed off, almost knocking Big off of the pier, running towards adventure having Cream fly after her, and Big follow soon after.

Sonic the Hedgehog was running through a desert like area, looking and waiting for an adventure. He dashed up a rock structure that looked like a loop-d-loop and jumped off the end, flying 50 feet in the air. He landed back on the ground running, making a cloud of dust rise behind him.

Above the sand dunes, a blue plane swooped down and noticed Sonic below it. A yellow fox's head peeked over the edge of the plane and jumped in excitement.

"Look, there's Sonic!" He cried, pointing at the cobalt hedgehog and turning to tell the person behind him.

The passenger just nodded, the red echidna's red and green shoes perched on the edge of the plane, like a footrest. The kitsune nodded back and performed a barrel roll, bringing the jet right next to the hero.

Sonic heard the noise of the engines and looked up, "Yo Tails! Long time no see!"

Tails, on the other hand, wasted no time and reached his arm towards Sonic, holding a piece of paper, "Sonic, check this out!"

The hero jumped up and grabbed the paper, landing and started jogging backwards only to see that it was a letter from his rival, Dr. Eggman. The letter had a picture of the mad scientist, which moved as a recorder read the letter aloud the doctor's voice.

"Guess what Sonic Heroes? I've finally developed the ultimate weapon! In three days, I will concur the world! Think you can stop me? Muahahaha!" it read, ending with the doctor's infamous laughter.

Sonic thought for a moment, then turned around and started sprinting forward, throwing the letter away behind him.

"Hmm…Sounds like an invitation to party!" Sonic declared.

Tails lowered his ears and spoke in a wavy whisper, "What are we going to do Sonic?"

"No worries, we've got this one!" Knuckles spoke up, saluting Tails with his fingers.

"Think I'd miss this? Let's crack that Eggman wide open…Yea, let's party!" cried Sonic, running even faster.

In response, Tails pushed a button, turning the Tornado onto 'autopilot' and hurdled off the side, along with Knuckles. The three ran in sequence with Sonic in the lead and Knuckles and Tails side by side a few feet behind him. Sonic decided to go to the beach, which was straight ahead of the team, with all it's glorious waves, splashing in the distance.

Rouge the Bat free fell down the tunnel, until she about reached the bottom, then spun in the air and landed in a crouch in front of a giant steel door. Hastily sidestepping, she jumped and sidled right next to the door and carefully looked at the padlock. The door had an all-too familiar head with grinning huge teeth and a giant mustache on it, with an all too easy computer lock.

Rouge smirked and pressed a few glowing yellow keys and the door speedily open for her, while she pretended to examine her nails.

Stepping into the room, she excitedly whispered, "This is it! I found Eggman's secret treasure!"

The bat confidently strutted into the room, reaching the middle with no treasure, but a tank with dark green liquid with a shadowed figure inside and a computer console.

Being the curious, former government spy that she is, Rouge started to unlock the computer and entered a password, which made a green light beam on the cistern.

Over in the shadows, a robot reactivated by turning on its eerie red eyes and slowly started to stomp towards Rouge, though she didn't notice. It scanned her but found nothing unusual on the female bat, dressed in a seductive purple outfit with pink trim and pink eye shadow. A lot different than her more recognizable black jumpsuit with pink hearts and blue eye shadow she used to wear. The robot also scanned the object in the tank, also curious as to what it was.

After pressing the final button, the jade fluid flowed out of the tank through a drain and opened the hatch, letting the creature inside loose. A well-known pair of crimson eyes opened and cautiously glanced at its surroundings.

Suddenly, the robot open fired on the creature and Rouge, with two machine guns erupting from its hands. The new creature leaped out of the way of the tank, which unexpectedly burst into flames from the artillery fire, and landed on top of Rouge, pushing her out of the way and protecting her from harm.

The being stood up and faced the machine quickly ordering, "Stay here!"

"Shadow?" Rouge gasped. She had found Shadow! After a whole year of being presumed dead, Shadow the Hedgehog, the Ultimate Life Form was indeed alive!

Wait till Lisa hears this! Rouge thought while watching Shadow bound out the way of the shots.

While firing, the robot called out in a metallic voice, almost like reassuring itself, "Must eradicate all Eggman robots!"

Shadow quickly jumped several times, grasping onto pillars and pipes and other accessories to avoid damage before he swooped in to attack.

Unfortunately, inside of feeling cold metal on his gloves, he felt a warm hand abruptly smack his face and stay there.

"Wait, hold up!" Rouge screamed, holding the two apart from ripping each other to shreds as she lowered her ears and panted.

Rouge sat on probably the only unbroken thing in the whole joint, a metal shelf, as she gazed upon all of the sparking and slowly burning equipment. After a long sigh, she turned to the others to go over the story one more time, making sure she understood everything.

"Now I get it…Now I know what this is all about," she said, turning to the robot, E-123 codenamed Omega, "You, you're mad at Eggman for sealing you in this room."

Omega lowered its metal head in response, obviously not liking being reminded of that. Rouge shook it off and turned to Shadow, lowering her ears.

"And you, you don't remember anything, do you?"

Shadow blinked and narrowed his eyes; looking at something else in the distant part of the room, give her a silent answer, clearly not wanting to talk either.

Great! Rouge thought to herself, Lisa's boyfriend is alive but doesn't remember her, or any of us at all! That reunion is not going to go smoothly.

"You sure? The name Lisa doesn't ring a bell at all." she asked.

Shadow's eyebrow twitched, but he shook his head and looked downward.

The bat pondered, All three of us are looking for Eggman, Omega for revenge and Shadow for answers. Maybe I can use this to my advantage.

"Then it's settled!" she jumped down from her roost and grabbed Omega's metal, four-fingered hand and Shadow's hand, placing them one on top of the other, hers the highest of the three, "We'll go and find Eggman together!"

Looking down at the hands, Rouge felt excited, another adventure with even more jewels, Omega clenched his other hand, finally, he would have revenge, and Shadow just stared at the hands, his eyes semi-glazed over, not really paying attention.

"Aww, Yea baby! This makes us a team!" The 17-year-old bat declared.

After escaping from the base, the group, which Rouge dubbed Team Dark, for Shadow's color, and the two facts that Omega was Eggman's robot and Rouge used to work for Eggman, were walking and pondering where to start.

Out of the blue, Omega stopped and turned towards on direction, aiming at the ocean a ways away.

"What's up?" Rouge asked, stopping to look at it.

"Eggman robots sensed at West South West. 148 degrees and-"

"In ENGLISH please!" Rouge demanded over his rambling.

"Eggman robots are being detected over that way, on the beach." Omega pointed.

"Well, that makes things easier," Rouge looked over at Shadow and smiled, "Now we know where to start!"

Shadow's head was down and his arms crossed, in deep thought, but he swiftly looked up and nodded, bringing his arms down and walked to the head of the group, taking the lead.

"Hope you can keep up with Me." he spoke in his quiet, deep voice.

Rouge just nodded and smiled, stretching out her wings and placing her hands behind her head. Omega responded by turning on a jet pack, he had equipped on his back. Though he could not fly with it, it pushed his body very fast a few inches above the ground, at least, fast enough to keep up with Shadow.

The hedgehog nodded and clicked his heals together; activating his hover shoes and dashed off with out another word, with Omega following a few seconds after.

"Not the social type, are ya boys?" Rouge smirked before running to catch up with them.

Sonic, Knuckles and Tails just flew down the beach, jumping over the large mounds of sand and grass and attacking the local Eggman robots.

"Why would Eggman robots be here?" Tails asked.

"I honestly don't know Tails," cried Sonic as he spin dashed through another one.

"Doesn't matter! I'll just take them out, no matter how many there are!" Knuckles bragged, punching his spiked fist through 3 more.

The team, already dubbed Team Sonic kept defeated robot after robot after robot and slowly moved down the beach, towards a hopeful clue. Sonic quickly grabbed the others hands and zoomed by a few more machines and landed in a valley.

At first there were no robots in sight, until Sonic accidentally stepped on a twig, making a large snap sound. Instantly, at least 20 robots came-a-callin' and surrounded the three.

Sonic and the others stood back to back in a triangle, watching the robots all around them, waiting to see who would make the first move. Suddenly, Knuckles got an idea, and gave off an evil smirk.

Sonic noticed this and said, his voice shaking, "What's that grin for Knux? Ol buddy ol pal?"

Knuckles just smirked back and grabbed Sonic by the tail, getting a loud screech from the hedgehog in response.

"What the HELL do you think you're doing?" Sonic screamed, being held upside down.

Then the echidna turned to Tails.

"Uhh, Knuckles…What are you-" Tails began before Knuckles snatched him by the tails and held him upside down.

Now, the guardian could barely concentrate with the clawing, screeching and downright naughty insults, but continued with his new attack. He began to spin his friends like a lasso around they're tails, spinning them fast enough to become animal punching bags. He ran and used his friends' backsides to punch into the robots, causing more damage to both participants.

Though however mean the method was, it was very effective and soon left the valley covered in robot parts and gadgets. On the ground was Sonic and Tails, moaning and groaning for not only were they animal punching bags, they were just on the worst roller coaster of their lives. In fact, Tails wobbled over to a corner, away from the other two and blew chunks.

After the world slowed down with it's 500 mph spinning Sonic demanded, "What the HELL was that!"

"A new technique Chaos taught me. Like it?" Knuckles smirked, winking at Sonic.

The hedgehog jumped on the echidna, knocking both of them to the ground, the blue one's gloves around the red one's neck.

"Why you bastard! You could have asked instead of just doing it!" Sonic bawled, choking Knuckles.

Tails trembled and slowly tried to walk up to the fighting pair, holding his head, Sonic choking Knuckles and Knuckles choking on his laughter.

"That sounded wrong." the young boy said.

"Get your head out of the gutter!" Sonic scolded Tails, before the fox ran away and barfed again.

Amy's ears twitched, she thought she just hear her "boyfriend" scream. The girl looked out in the distance and sighed; maybe it was just her imagination.

"What's wrong Amy?" Cream asked.

"Nothing, I just thought I heard Sonic." Amy replied, until she heard another scream, and it was a boy's. She whipped her head around, the origin came from the direction the last cry was.

"There it is again!" cried Amy, "Am I going crazy because I haven't seen Sonic in so long I'm hearing him scream?"

"No, I heard it too." Cream answered, lifting up one of her big floppy ears.

"Hmm…Well, we should get going, Froggy and Chocola aren't going to find themselves!" And so Team Rose as Amy stated, continued down the beach.

Shadow was sitting on a rock with Omega standing beside it while Rouge finally jogged up and fell to her knees panting in front of both of them.

"You…you know that…you could have…waited for me…" She said between gasps, trying to regain her breath.

"We did wait. Besides it took a lot of energy for me to drag Omega away from destroying the robots to wait for you." Shadow replied, crossing his arms while Omega's somethingorother over heated, causing his metal to turn a slight red, resembling a blush.

"Oh, it must have been so hard, running away from those robots while I fought them alone!" Rouge said sarcastically.

Shadow lowered his head and smirked, his arms still folded while Omega's head shot up, doing a 180 and he beeped like crazy.

"New Eggman robot detected!" he replied, some excitement programmed into his monotone voice, then his head continued turning and went the rest of the 360, looking back at Rouge.

Rouge shivered and screamed, "Don't do that! You look like you're from the Exorcist!"

E-123 turned to Shadow, "You were right, it was amusing watching her reaction."

"You mean that was your idea?" She chewed out Shadow.

"It was just a little prank." He smirked.

"Oh, really? And since when do you do pranks?" she interrogated, with her hands placed on her hips.

Shadow's eyes opened wide as his mind just faded from the conversation, while Rouge kept ragging on Omega to stop spinning his head and various robotic parts around in circles.

FLASHBACK

The girl giggled as she placed the end of the Whoopee Cushion in her mouth and started to blow.

"What are you doing that for?" asked the boy, his ears twitched slightly on the top of his head, tilting his head to the side in confusion.

The girl giggled again, "Why not? It's just a little prank!"

Again, the boy looked puzzled, "What's a prank?"

The girl finished filling the whoopee cushion with air and placed it under the padding of the office chair and turned around, facing the boy.

"A prank," she told him, poking him in the stomach, "Is just a little joke. It doesn't really do any harm!"

The boy laughed and placed his hand over his belly, "Ok! I see now!"

Down the hallway, loud footsteps were heard, coming to the pairs hiding place. The girl quickly put her finger up to her lips to silence the boy and crept further under the desk, an eye peeking out and watching the door. The boy followed her suit and blended in with the darkness in the hiding place.

An old man wearing a white lab slowly dragged his feet into the room, his hand clutching his temples, obviously having a hard day. He dropped his briefcase on the floor and walked over to his desk. At first, he didn't sit down and almost prodded the two vigilantes with his shoes. Finally, the man wearily sat into his office chair.

POOT!

END FLASHBACK

"Shadow? Shadow…Are you in there?" a voice called.

"…SHADOW!"

"What?" Shadow's eyes popped open to see Rouge in front of him; she just finished waving her hand in front of his face and lowered it to her side.

Rouge sighed, "Oh thank god you're alright! You just spaced out for a second on us, I was worried! I was about to have Omega punch you or something!"

Shadow looked down at his hands, what was that he saw? A dream, a vision? Or maybe even…a memory? All of a sudden, he stood up and walked off his little perch, towards the beach a little ways.

"We should get going," he said, not looking at the other two, "We've wasted enough time already."

"Affirmative." E-123 agreed and started up his jet pack and flew on ahead, egger to take out some Eggman robots.

Rouge sighed and stood up and ran after Omega leaving only Shadow behind, his head bowed in deep thoughts.

What was that I saw? Was the boy me? Who was that girl? If only I remembered more… Shadow thought as he closed his eyes.

Shadow…

His crimson eyes shot open and looked around, nothing was there except the waves crashing on the shore and the small outline of Rouge and Omega attacking and destroying little orange dots.

"Who…" He began.

Shadow…

His ears twitched, the voice didn't sound like it came from a person close by, more like it had traveled on the wind, for it sounded like a wearily and sad whisper.

Shadow…Where are you?

The wind brushed by his ears, carrying a soft feminine voice, she sound like she was crying and Shadow thought he felt a tear or two land on his quills. The voice he heard sounded familiar, and yet weak and frail, like it had been roaming a long time.

Shadow…I never forgot…I never will…I will find you… I promise…

After that, Shadow could hear no more, just the faintest whisper of his name, becoming less and less noticeable. The black hedgehog tilted his head up towards the sky and gazed upon the clouds and the sun shining high. He sighed and thought about those words, he thought he never thought he would ever hear.

"I never forgot…I will find you…"

"Shadow!"

He whipped his head at Rouge's voice; she was waving her arms, signaling for him to come join her and Omega down on the beach. He took one last glance at the sky, then activated his hover shoes and dashed down to his team and on to adventure, not hearing the final words on the wind.

I love you…

Sorry if that message wasn't clear, I wanted to make it sort of a mystery and still make it readable. I mean, it was traveling on the wind, he couldn't hear it perfectly, could he? Especially if it's over a year old.

"How come we were barely in that chapter?" asked Amy.

Because everyone hates you except in Sonamy pairings.

(Amy is now depressed.)

Excellent! Now review please! And the chapters might be a little bit late, this fic is more about fluff than the game, so I gotta figure out how to include the game story line, and I might write a Shaman King fic, or aYu-Gi-Oh one if I can just remember the plot.

"Good luck with that!" said Sonic.

Screw you! Please review! (A rhyme+1 for me!)
