About two months ago; Station Square

Opening her eyes, Rouge looked around. The bat then felt lots of pain in her head and rubbed it. What just happened? The last thing I remember I…Her eyes then widened. The last thing I remember is…nothing…Seeing that the beach was nearby, she ran to it and looked at her reflection in the water. First thing she noticed was huge white ears. Her heart shaped top was torn a little bit and her blue eye shadow had smudged. The next thing she saw were black things that apparently sprouted from her back; her wings. So…I'm a bat…? Looking around she realized everyone around her was human. So, what is going on?

"Rouge!" a red animal said out of nowhere. The amnesic bat looked around. Who was that? And who's Rouge? I wish I had a cool name like that…But still, that porcupine dog thing…wasn't human…No sign of the fellow animal anywhere. Rouge found that unimportant as another image (Knux was only in her mind, not really there in the city…) popped in her head. It was of a green emerald, bigger than herself-and that included her ears.

"The Master Emerald…" She found herself saying out loud. "And it belongs to me…Wonder why I never sold it off…wait, did I?" She continued out loud as a few people looked at her, because she seemed crazy talking to herself like that, like she was an alien……well, you know what I meant.

Meanwhile, on an island floating above the sea that no one has any idea how to get to, aka, Angel Island…

"Something's wrong…" Knuckles told himself. "Batgirl hasn't come to steal the Master Emerald in a while." The echidna then decided to ask the Master Emerald, so he stopped whatever he was doing and ran to the alter and looked inside the Maste Emerald to see Rouge in the middle of City Square completely lost. (Kagome: It gets annoying how powerful and useful that Emerald is, ne?)

"This explains a lot." Knux told himself as he went off to find Tikal.

"Knuckles?" She asked. "What's up?"

"I have some…uh…er…important business to take care of in the city." He informed her.

"Important like hurt the blue hedgehog?" She replied. "What'd he do this time?"

"No. Important like findin-" He stopped himself right there. I don't care about her! Why am I even trying to save her! Batgirl can burn in hell for all I care! But, as we all know, that's not true. Able to see that it was love problems, considering the red echidna was redder than usual, Tikal had to…annoy Knuckles and manipulate him. You know very well that both you and me would in a second…

"Girl trouble?" She asked, pleased with Knuckles's response, which was a lot of freaking out. "Who's the unlucky girl?"

"No one!" the male Master Emerald guardian responded. "And it certainly isn't that stupid batgirl!"

"Bat…girl…?" Tikal tilted her head, now serious. "So, that's who that one bat with the hearts and black clothes is…" She recalled Rouge visiting the island on several occasions. "Since when do you date, and since when would someone want to come visit you?"

"Tikal…just watch the Master Emerald!" He ordered.

"That's the perfect way to ask a favour." She responded sarcastically.

"Fine. Will you please stop being a smart mouth and help me by watching the Master Emerald while I find Rouge?"

"So this is about the bat."

"NO! IT'S NOT!" He stomped off. Stupid Tikal! Tricking me into talking about Rouge! To make it worse she's turning it around so it sounds like I love that stupid thief! I DON'T! …Okay…maybe a little…GAH! This is ALL Tikal's fault I'm confused!

More recently…in Station Square

Shadow, who had nothing better to do, was watching sitcoms on some random channel when there was a knock on the door. Of course, the hedgehog was on the couch located only twelve feet away from the door, so he yelled for Tails.

"FOXBOY!"

Tails immediately came out. "What is it, Shadow!" He said in his annoying girly voice.

"Could you answer the door." Shadow went back to watching the sitcom. Lots of laughter burst out of the audience (you know, when something funny happens and you hear people in the background laughing…)in reference to a hilarious scene. Raising an eyebrow, Shadow found himself interrupted by tails.

"Hold on, Shadow!" He had just realized. "You were right by the door, why'd you call me in?"

"Doesn't matter." Shadow responded calmly. "Because now you're closer to the door."

"But…" Tails protested. "I was working on modifications for the Tornado. It was important! And we have a butler."

"Well now you're not working on your plane, so answer the stupid door."

Tails boiled and then did just as he was told. Upon opening the door he found a black dragon with a kuwaii red Chinese dress on.

"Nhao1 ma!" She responded.

"Uh…" Tails responded. He was almost as confused with someone speaking Chinese to him as Chris would be if someone spoke to him in English. "Shadow, you're the ultimate life. Can't you speak Chinese?"

"Why would I learn Chinese?" Shadow asked as if saying 'are you really that stupid, of course not'.
"I Meilin." The dragon responded, Shadow walked to the door.

"Yo, Sonic it's for you!" He shouted. Suddenly a black blob appeared and took the form of a blue hedgehog; in other words Sonic did spin dash. He looked at Meilin, the dragon, carefully.

"Huh…You look familiar…" He mumbled. "Oh! I know! I saved you once, didn't I!"

"Blue hedgehog is…" Meilin looked at him. "…oh! Hedgehog must be ultimate life Meilin hear about."

Shadow…control it…control it…the black hedgehog told himself over and over as he calmed his rage down. 2

"Shadow." She said in Sonic's direction. "Meilin with the government and supposed to observe Project Shadow."

"Hey, Shadow," Sonic looked at his look alike joking. "Who knew that the government was still concerned on how much of a threat I pose."

"Faker, if you say that one more time, you will be as black as I am…"

"Meilin confused. Blue hedgehog 'Shadow' or 'faker'?"

"Faker." Shadow responded.

"But if faker no Shadow, who Shadow?" She asked.

"Who does it look like would Shadow out of everyone in this room!" He asked impatiently.

"Black hedgehog right. Black hedgehog Shadow?"

"YES!"

Meilin looked at Shadow, confused.

"Meilin no expect Shadow to be small and from Mobius…"

"I'm not from your planet!" Shadow glared. "I was created here on earth a long time ago."

"And why faker1 look like you?" She asked next. "You still small."

"I didn't know annoying was a requirement of the government now." The black hedgehog said. "You and batgirl both…well, she was more annoying before…"

"Before what?" Meilin asked, curiously. Shadow looked as if considering telling the dragon about Rouge's amnesia or not.

"Nothing." He chose to tell her nothing of what had happened a few months ago when the Master Emerald holder burst through the doors, batgirl next to his side calling him Fists the Porcupine.

"Look." Shadow told her. "If you're going to observe me, do it quietly!"

Meiling understood every word of that, but she still said the next line because she's like me and knows she loves to be annoying.

"Meilin no too good with English…" She nodded.

TWO MONTHS AGO

Knux glided to Station Square, unsure of if Rouge was okay or not. His reflection crystal clear in the water, which was unusually calm. It was peacefully quiet and if someone were to throw a diving stick in the water, you could hear it from eighty yards away (or something like that).

The echidna then ran around the city, desperate to find Rouge and desperate for hiding places from the fangirlz.

After three hours Knux had finally gotten a lead; Rouge had been seen somewhere near the alley in the casino area. With how fast he was going, someone would think it was Sonic or Shadow, well…that's more then a bit exaggerated…

Sadly, the echidna's search came up empty handed. Dammit! He threw his fist into the ground. Taking it out, he found he had left marks in the concrete. With another punch, Knuckles continued his thoughts I'm never going to find Rouge! What should I do now?

Suddenly a bat-like creature walked by the alley.

ROUGE! Eager little Nakuruzu-chan ran after her.

"ROUGE!" He asked, panting still from all the running around he'd been doing. "Are you okay!"

"Who are you?" She looked at him, able to recognize him from a few days ago when she had first lost everything memory-wise.

"It's Knuckles." His worst fear had become true; well, he hadn't really though of it, but still; Rouge had amnesia. "Rouge…don't tell me you forgot…" He shook his head. She didn't have anything about him to remember. The two had been enemies and he had liked it that way; Rouge was the thief that tried to steal his emerald, so the two would constantly fight. No romance, and Knux always told himself it was for the better. But now, Rouge didn't even know who Knuckles was, he could be 'Spiky' for all she knew. Or even worse 'Dreadlock dude'. "Why don't you come with me to Chris's mansion." He offered.

"Who's chris?"

"He's really gay." The red animal then realized his bat 'friend' had no clue what he meant. "Nevermind."

Knuckles then grabbed the thief by her hand, and would have secretly been happy if things hadn't been as bad as they were at the minute. Memories of Rouge came floating into his head.

Knuckles had been enjoying the recent peace on Angel Island, even though he was slightly curious why Rouge hadn't come after M.E. recently. Who knows? He though to himself as he closed his eyes. Maybe batgirl finally realized she could never beat me.Hearing the sound of wings flapping, the echidna opened an eye and saw none other than Rouge the Bat in front of him. She had just dropped from the sky.

"Would you just give up!" He asked her in an annoyed tone, since she had interrupted his relaxation time.

"Who said I was here for the Master Emerald?" She had asked. He could not believe ROUGE was saying that. "Nothing good is happening down there and I was bored, that's all." What Knux noticed is that she shook her head as if she was shaking a thought away.

"Are you okay, batgirl?" He eyed her suspiciously. To him, it appeared that she obviously wanted something, most likely the Emerald. "What do you want?"

"I have to have a reason to come see you?" She asked innocently. Something didn't seem right. Rouge never seemed innocent.

"You don't just go to somewhere like here without reason." Knuckles argued. "What do you really want!"

Without a word, Rouge flew off.

As the echidna finished the thought, they were already at the mansion. He went to knock on the door when Sonic came up behind him, just coming back from running.

"Hey, Knuxster." He greeted. "Oh, hi Rouge."

"You would be…?" Rouge asked.

"She has amnesia." Knuckles explained what Sonic could figure out for himself. "I decided it would be better for her to be here than Angel Island." The blue hedgehog nodded in agreement.

"Fists brought me here, why?" Rouge asked, confused by all that had happened in the last half hour. First, things were like how they had been for the last three or four days, then some porcupine guy calling himself 'Knuckles' appeared and brought her to some big place belonging to a person named Chris, and now he was talking about some place called 'Angel Island' and what about the other animal guy? Not to mention the hand dude (Knux) had been in town right after she had lost her memory, hadn't he? 1

"Do you remember anything?" Sonic asked her.

"I do remember something called the Master Emerald. It belongs to"

"ME" she said in unison with the red animal. They sent eachother a death ray.

"Your Emerald!" He argued. "That emerald belongs to me!"

"No…It's mine…"

"Don't you dare touch my Emerald." He threatened. "It could put us all in danger."

"The Master Emerald is MINE!" She yelled.

"No, its not!"

Sonic sighed; some things would never change.

Months later, while Shadow, Sonic, and Tails found they would have one more alien living with them, Knuckles and Rouge were, well, being Knuckles and Rouge.

"C'mon! We need a break! It's the perfect spot!" Rouge put on an angelic smile.

"No. That place is for little kids!" Knuckles argued, throwing a map that read 'MGM STUDIOS' at Rouge. The angelic smile disappeared in an instant.

"It is not!" She protested.

"Name one ride-"

"Tower of Terror." She started. "Rock N' Roller Coaster."

"We don't even fit any height requirements!" He obviously wanted nothing to do with this trip.

"Don't we get the hero's discount?" Rouge mocked him.

"Shadow told you about that, didn't he?"

"What sort of bar gives out 'hero discounts'?"

"ANYWAYS, Disney is for babies!"

"So is Sonic X, but you still took that gig." She responded.

"That's different. It paid."

"Disney Land is for little kids, Disney World-"

"They aren't the same thing?" Knux asked in a 'really, I thought they were' tone.

"They're on opposite sides of the country." Rouge gave him a look that screamed NO DUR. "Even I know that, and I knew nothing a couple of months ago."

"Sorry. I don't keep up on my vacation trivia." The echidna stubbornly crossed his arms.

"Oh, yeah…" Rouge nodded. "I forgot; the master emerald forbided it."

Within a few minutes, that argument was a screaming war that could be heard downstairs.

"Those two always fight like in kindergarten?" The chinese dragon asked.

"Pretty much." Sonic replied. "Hey, Shadow, what's on TV?"

"Some show called 'Everybody Hates Raymond'"

"Don't you mean Everybody LOVES Raymond?"

"No," Shadow nodded. "I'm sure everyone hates him, or at least I do."

Knuckles came down, wishing he had crutches. There were bandages all over him and you would be able to tell he had been bleeding if his fur wasn't red. An untouched Rouge followed along after him.

"We have an announcement to make!" She said in fake cheer. "Knuckles and I have agreed to go to Disney World."

"You can all come…" He grumbled. "Except Tanaka and Ellen. Those two are such big losers, they stopped getting existence credit a while back."

Kagome: GASP! I didn't think I could write this much in one chapter. Okay! The Disney thing IS random, but it was just there for comedy. To a lot of people, it is childish, and I don't want this fic turning into crap like the TV show. So, if you actually wanted to see them in Disney World, too bad, I don't want to add Disney to the doisclaimer. Speaking of that…DISNEY IS OWNED BY…someone…NOT ME!
