Shadow and Espio

By Streak The Chameleon

Chapter 15: Wrapping Up

I do not own any of the Sonic characters. Sega does.

Kialya, thanks for the review, and Pyro, I haven't seen Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and as for the Blood project, that will be the basis for the sequel to this story. Yes, I AM going to write a sequel. Enjoy the chapter!

Sonic raised his arms over his head, preparing to strike.

"Don't you think you've forgotten something?"

Sonic turned, and yelled as Streak ran and punched him in the face.

Sonic fell back a little, and managed to keep from falling over.

"Where's Amy?" Sonic said.

"Oh, Amy? She's somewhere.

In truth, Amy was in a deserted locker on the bottom floor with rope tied around her and a rag on her mouth.

"She wasn't enough for you?"

"You think?" Streak said as he got into a fighting position.

Sonic charged, and Streak quickly ducked down, put his hand on the floor, and kicked with his legs at an angle.

The kick caught Sonic directly on the chin, and Sonic sailed upwards.

Streak jumped up and grabbed Sonic in midair. Then he flipped him and Sonic around and corkscrewed to the ground.

There was a thump as both Sonic's and Streak's bodies hit the floor.

Sonic groaned and stood up.

"What does it take to knock you out!" Streak said. Streak had landed on his broken arm.

Sonic walked over to Streak, determined to kill Streak immediately.

"Don't you think you're forgetting something?"

Shadow leaped up from his position and punched Sonic clear across the jaw.

Sonic slammed against the wall and slumped to the floor.

Shadow walked up and looked. "Okay, now he's knocked out."

"About time." Streak had gotten up.

Shadow started shoving Sonic into a locker.

"Did you set the bomb?"

"Yeah."

Streak decided that he shouldn't tell Shadow about the Blood project. Shadow might want to see it, and that would take time.

"Any word on Espio?"

"I'll try again."

Shadow reached up to his earpiece and tried calling Espio.

"Just static."

"I'll check upstairs. You check downstairs."

"Got it."

Espio had just managed to wrench a gun from Cream's hand. Unfortunately, it was out of ammo.

"So, how much ammo do you have?"

Cream said nothing and continued firing.

The battle was frustrating. Cream would fire from one gun until she ran out of ammo, and then she fired from the other while she was reloading.

Espio's shurikan had been stolen when he was chained up at the warehouse, so all he could do was wait for her to run out of ammo.

Espio dodged a hail of bullets for the hundredth time. Man, this WAS frustrating.

"Yo, Easter bunny!"

Shadow ran from around the corner and shot a Chaos Spear.

The bolts hit Cream directly, and she dropped the guns.

Espio ran up to Cream, grabbed a gun, pointed it at Cream, and fired.

Shadow sighed.

"And you complain about your brother being bloodthirsty?"
