Disclaimer: I don't any of the characters below.

Thank you all for the reviews.

Outside

"No! That can't be!" Sonic yelled back.

"Well it is!" She couldn't stop crying, "You were the only I've ever had sex with!"

"Oh god why did this have to happen?" Sonic yelled out loud, He laid his eyes on Mina still crying.

"He left me and it's all my fault." She kept repeating over and over.

"Mina..." He said in a comforting voice.

"Mina nothing! Sonic how could you do this?" Amy yelled in anger "Mina is going to have a baby and it's yours, Shadow left her in anger, and what are you going to do!"

"I don't know! I never expect this. I wasn't thinking! I was drunk!"

(Kids this is why you never get drunk or have one night stands or both like Sonic and Mina.)

The hedgehog held his head in confusion. "Mina what about abortion?"

Mina looked up at Sonic "Never! I will not do that! It's out the question!" She had anger in her eye but it faded into sorrow again…"Oh Shadow! Please...come back!" She continued to sob. But Shadow was a long way from even looking at her.

"I might as well take my responsibility and be its father." That made Mina feel some relief that she would not have to deal with this alone.

"I wish Shadow would do this though, but I can't blame him either." She said sadly getting up.

Knuckles walked out limping having some support from Rouge, "Rouge... You can...go home...ow!" He was still in pain.

"No way! I'm going to walk you home. And then I'm going to stay with you until you heal."

"What...about...work?"

"I could use a long vacation." She smiled at him, he tried to but the pain stopped him from even laughing, "Okay that's it! I'm carrying you home."

"What! No wa—" She picked him up without much of a problem he wasn't that heavy.

The entire way he was red and embarrassed because Sonic kept laughing at him and people stared at him and the female bat carrying him.

Angel Island

Knuckles kept telling Rouge to take him to the shrine and when he wouldn't shut up she finally gave up and took him there.

That same echidna that had been warning Knuckles wait at the shrine for him. He also had an ally, he couldn't tell what it was because it had no face or any flash and it looked like concentrated white cloudy air in a human body form. But the strange thing is; it worn clothing.

It wore all black, it had a large V-shaped chest part with no other clothing to it, just V-shaped black colored that seemed like straps the when from its waist; up to shoulder areas and back down. It had long black arm bands the stretched from just below the wrist to just above it's elbow. Its lower body was just a black belt-like thing with a long drape like thing that hung down from the middle of the belt, it was the same on the sides of the belt but on skinnier degree; they covered most of what seem to be its cloud like legs. It was duel toe boot like things that went mid-way up his shin. It head had only a black piece that looked like a triangle with the tip hanging down. Through its white cloud body were two yellow glowing eyes.

It stood with its arms crossed; staring at Knuckles and Rouge. Sonic and the others waited behind them.

"What do you want?" Knuckles spiked at both of them. He moved from Rouge and stood on his own two feet. He slowly came closer to the shrine as the continued to talk.

"You've had you're chance, time's up! Viper…the bat first, the guardian might learn his lesson by the time we're done…" This holy figure had the most deep and sinister chuckle when he gave orders to his assistant.

With its orders, Viper slid into a shadow in the ground and disappeared.

"What the? Where'd he go?" Sonic began to look around like a paranoid psycho.

There was silence, nothing…Knuckles began to look around with increasing fear. Rouge's steady calm was fading; she couldn't hear a thing or see it.

Viper slid out the ground behind Rouge, before she react, it wrapped it arm around her neck and held her arm with its other arm. It pinned Rouge's legs together with one its own.

Knuckles growled…hostage…some guardian huh?

"You twisted fucker! You using an shadow assassin!" Knuckles was well aware of some of the unknown societies and training styles and professions; Shadow Assassins; martial arts elites that have the ability to hide in any area by the uses of darkness or shadows. He had never seen one like this one, a smoke type figure before though.

The blue echidna growled letting Knuckles that this was no taunt, that assassin would kill her here and now.

Knuckles had never fought anything like this before. He knew he would have one shot at this, hyper form; but could he survive it? The energy use could kill him; no choice, he went for the emerald.

The echidna didn't stop, it watched him. It watch him charge the energy through his body. Even when Knuckles was fully changed; no faze.

"This ends now!" Knuckles yelled as he shook off some of his bandages.

The two echidnas took fighting stances. Viper held a tight grip on Rouge just barely allow her room to breathe.

Knuckles walked closer. He threw one punch; the echidna caught it and twisted Knuckles arm. He didn't twist all the way, but he wasn't being nice about it either. Knuckles struck a blow to the echidna stomach; thankfully his theory worked, hyper form was the only way he could fight him.

The blow to the stomach caused to echidna to back away and clench it. Knuckles took advantage of the punches after effect and took alternating swings at the echidna's face; landing each one. He threw one more straight into its face; he backed away.

The echidna coughed and wiped its mouth as if it was bleeding. He stood up straight and held two fingers straight up.

Suddenly Knuckles was in Viper's grip, the echidna made his way to the fallen Rouge who was gasping for air. Knuckles body began to show a light green flame, Viper let go and went into his fighting stance.

Sonic race over and stood in front of the echidna that kept going. Moving through Sonic he went for Rouge. She looked up and was grabbed by her throat.

Knuckles grabbed Viper's arm and twisted and flipped him over, he ditched that fight and went for the echidna. Viper slipped into the shadows in the ground. The shadow figure in the ground eluded all and made its way towards him.

Rouge felt her head get lighter as she stared into the echidnas red eyes. She saw Knuckles grab him and shook his grip loose; he kicked the back of the echidna's knees and threw a crushing blow to the temple of his head.

Not letting him get up Knuckles stomped on his chest with one foot. Grabbing one arm he spun him twice and threw him into mountain side. Knuckles continued the battery of his enemy till he almost hit the shrine.

Viper watched from a tree as Knuckles threw two blows into the echidna's chest and stomach area. His fist began to glow; the green shade of Knuckles fur began to show red as he focused all his energy into his fist. The echidna stumbled to get up; looking up Knuckles threw an uppercut launching him into one of the shrine's pillars. The echidna laid there groaning and holding his head. Viper decided now was the time to leave, not even a spirit could make him decide between life and death, and Viper…preferred life over death.

"This isn't over, not by a long shot!" The echidna groaned as he laced his fingers and faded away.

There was a pause…nothing…

Knuckles groaned with relief as he fell to his knees and then on his face. His red fur came back and the Master Emerald's green glow returned.

"That's it?" Sonic said scratching his head in some disappointed look. Amy and Tails rolled there eyes, he was way out his league in this one. Rouge sat up; recovered from her encounter with the echidna she rubbed her throat.

"Knuckles?" She said quietly as she began to walk towards him. She could see his face grow a smile.

"You okay?" He said twitching in one eye, his wounds became more visible. There were cuts all over him. She smiled and nodded;

"You can't move can you?"

He chuckled, "Nope, can't even think without hurting myself."

"You think?" Sonic shouted shocked at what he over heard.

"Well he has a point, what the hell was going through you're mind that made you think you could fight in your condition?" She began to question angrily with worry though.

"I was thinking about you." He said smiling more.

She cooed as lifted him, "Aw that's so sweet…still you can be an idiot sometimes!" she rolled her eyes and began to walk to his house.

"Well…this is boring…I'm going home!" Sonic began to lead the other home; this idiot must have ADD not to be fazed at all by what just happened.

"Rouge?" Knuckles began.

"Hmm?" She looked down at her baby like man in her arms. He had passed out before he could sayanything back.

Knuckles's Home

She laid the sleeping echidna in his bed and pulled the covers over him. She kissed his forehead.

"Thank you Knuckles." She walked out into the living room and laid down on his couch, she looked at the ceiling and smiled at where she was;

'I think could get used to living here'

She closed her blue eyelids and fell in to a deep slumber.

The next morning she woke up on a bed, Knuckles's bed to be exact but he wasn't any where in sight.

She got up and walked out to see Knuckles cooking eggs and had milk and some type of cakes with berries in it on the table, it smell really good "Knuckles what are you doing out of bed, you're suppose to be resting."

"I'm a fast healer and feel well enough to at least cook and do something other than sit around doing nothing." He yawned.

"Alright if you say so...Why did I wake up in your bed this morning?"

"Well I didn't want you sleeping on the couch and you were shivering when I woke up at 3:00"

"Oh thank you...I'll be right back, don't do anything that puts stress on your back or your arm understand?"

"Yes mom..." He chuckled she came up to him kiss him on the cheek and then hit him on the back of the head playfully "Hey that hurt Rouge, don't forget I'm still recovering." He said with a playful tone.

"Yeah...right mister 'I'm a fast healer'" She chuckled and grabbed a cake left.

"Hey that one was mine!" He yelled at the empty room, "Man that was the last blue berry one!"

Forest Outskirts of town it was snowing heavily

He sighed "Fucking hate her…and Sonic of people." He walked on trying to forget what happened.

Shadow heard a cry for help;

"AHHH!"

He kicked his heels starting his air shoes and ran in the voice's direction. He got to the person, it was female hedgehog she was a teal color with hair of lighter shade baby blue. Eggman was in a robot with two cannons aimed at her "Give me that emerald!" He said over the audio speaker.

Shadow looked at the girl's hand saw a black emerald! "What the hell? A black emerald!" He did a homing attack on the robot: no damage

"Shadow!" Eggman said aiming at him now.

"What the hell do you want with the girl?" Shadow yelled, she just stared at Shadow, Eggman charged his two cannons He knew he couldn't stop it so he did the only thing he could do

"Give me that emerald!" She tossed it him.

"Now take my hand." He sprinted towards her and she did as told;

"CHAOS CONTROL!" They disappeared in a white flash of light. The cannons fired as they left leaving a huge carter in the ground, Eggman growled as he tried to scan for an energy signal.

A flash of light a shape of an oval Shadow and teal hedgehog flew out of it. Shadow got up and looked at his surroundings he was in the forest but the deep part where he had never been before. He walked in the direction where they came from.

"Hey wait! Who are you?" He turned around and looked at her.

"My name is Shadow the Hedgehog." He walked again; signs of a blizzard were appearing.

"Hey there's a storm coming! Why you don't at my house till it passes, my house isn't far from here."

"No thank you, I'll be fine." He began to walk away but was yanked by his arm in the other direction, he fell to the floor and was dragged away he looked up and saw the girl dragging him to her house.

"There is no way I'm letting you walk in this storm!" She said he sighed in annoyance.

"I've heard of girl dragging guys around but this is ridiculous." She ignored him and continued on walking to her house dragging the ranting black hedgehog.

Girl's House

She went into the kitchen and yelled out to him "Want some coco?"

He thought about it "Sure." he looked at her house and saw a pair of shoes and walked over to them they were black and teal, he read the side of the shoe at bottom it said Shadow Speed He tilted his head;

"Weird."

She yelled back "Don't you even think about touching those shoes!"

She walked back in carrying two mugs of coco "What's so special about those shoes?" Shadow said while taking a sip of coco.

"Well my father gave me those shoes a couple of months ago before he died in car accident, those shoes were specially designed to last me a lifetime with out having to repair or sew do any to them except clean them, I use them for my morning runs." She drank her coco then the power went out.

"Uh oh…" She said, the room was dark and I mean dark black.

"Don't worry, you got a fire place?"

"Yeah but I can't show you to it. No light." Shadow took off his shoes and started the fire that came from them letting out a light brighter than candle.

"Where is it?" She got up and walked through the kitchen into a living room; Shadow followed her.

"Here." She pointed to a large fire place with five logs in it. Shadow used his shoes to start a fire and sat down; she sat next to him "This is a nice place you got here...uh..."

"Cindy, my name is Cindy the Hedgehog" (If ya'll have read my bio you know what might happen.)

He looked at the fire place and looked at her and said "Beautiful."

She looked at him and giggled and said "Thank you." Shadow realized what he did and looked away hiding a blush. "Hey why are looking away?" She said asked as if he was scared of her.

"Uh...nothing."

She raised an eyebrow, "I asked why question, not a what are you doing question."

He had no idea what to do, heck he didn't even know what he was saying out loud "I know it's early but you want to go out some time?"

'Did I just say that out loud? I'm losing my mind.'

He was aware that he was attracted to her but he wondered was it because he liked her or was it because a striking resemblance of Mina?

"I'd like that Shadow." She smiled at the hedgehog and scooted closer to him and rested her head on his shoulder.

They fell asleep next to each other. Both happy but the black and red hedgehog was still wondering of reasons why he was so attracted to her. The next morning the storm had passed, Shadow was still asleep when Cindy got up and started breakfast.

Station Square

Mina walked down the streets looking for someone we all know. She looked in stores at his house but no sign of Shadow.

As she was about give up hope she bumped into him "Shadow!"

He didn't say anything, "Shadow please listen I'm sorry! I never meant to hurt you I had no idea what I was thinking! I'm sorry." He sighed…

"Mina…I don't know what to tell you…do have any idea what went through my mind when you told me that you were having his kid?" She looked away and felt so ashamed.

"I don't but please, you have to understand! I wasn't in control, I was drunk! I need you!"

"So? Do you know how it gonna feel for me when I see that baby is blue and yellow and not black and yellow?" He was going very deep in this conversation.

"I love you Shadow! I never meant to hurt you! It was a mistake, you have no idea how much I regret it!" She tried to take his hand but he moved it away.

He still felt so much for her…he wanted to be with her even more than Cindy. But the first betrayal kept him from answering.

"So that's it...no chance what so ever?"

"…"

Her eyes began to water, she ran off. He watched her run and wanted to go after her but he couldn't…

New People: Don't read lower lines…it's spoiler!

Should Mina die or not…I need to know! I feel like deleting Cindy as my character but I don't know! You people help me!
