Yay! I'm so happy that so many people are reviewing. I know this is an odd topic, but thanks. I'm so happy. Crud, I was going to say something else, but now I forget...

Rouge looked in the appartment window. Shadow and Gemini were apparantly arguing about something, Ciel trying to break them up. Rouge let out a sigh. Those three were definetly siblings, and fought like ones too. Oh well, all the more fun. She walked over to the door, opening it.

"I'm back!" she exclaimed, causing the boy's heads to turn. Shadow's face turned a little red.

"Hiya Rouge!" Ciel said happily, "We were just talking about you! Shadow has something to tell you."

"No I don't," Shadow said quickly. "Glad you're back Rouge. How'd it go?"

"Okay, I guess," Rouge said. "I hate searching for criminals."

"That because you're a crook yourself?" Gemini asked. Shadow elbowed him in the ribs. Both of them started to glare at each other.

"Er, they were arguing before you got here," Ciel said. "We were trying to convince Shadow to tell you he's-"

"Ciel, shut it!" Shadow said angrily. Rouge stared at him.

"Shadow," she said, a woried look on her face, "Is there something I should know about?" She was worried. What had he done now? Destroy the night club? Or was it something else?

"Well, I...er...you see," Shadow stammered for a bit. His cheeks were turning red.

"Dammit Shadow," Gemini said, "If you don't tell her, I will. You wouldn't want that, would you?"

"I can say it myself," Shadow said.

"Well, what is it?" Rouge asked. Shadow looked her in the eyes.

"Rouge," Shadow said slowly, "I don't know how to explain it, but I'm...pregnant." Rouge had an upset look on her face.

"Not funny Shadow," she said. "I come back home, and this is what I get? What do you think I am, stupid?"

"He's telling the truth," Gemini said, pulling the pregnancy test out of his pocket. "Shadow is really pregnant."

"How'd you get a hold of that?" Ciel asked.

"I knew we would need it to prove it to Rouge," Gemini said. "Otherwise, I wouldn't of touched the damn thing." Rouge was staring at Shadow.

"You can't be serious," she said. "You really are..."

"I guess so," Shadow said. "Trust me, I'm as suprised as you are." Rouge went over and hugged him.

"Oh Shadow," Rouge said happily, "You never cease to amaze me. Thank you." Shadow smiled. Well, she was happy. For now. But how were the next few months going to play out?

"Dr. Eggman," Bokkun said as he entered the room, "Someone's here to see you." Eggman sat up.

"Bring him in," Eggman said in his creepy, metallic voice. He still hadn't found a way to change himself back to normal. He was still an echidna. Bokkun flew out of the room, coming back in with a black rabbit.

"So, Dr. Eggman," Ebony said, "You sure are looking different."

"I know," Eggman said. "Listen, I need you to do something. I think you might enjoy this."

"And what would that be?" Ebony asked. Eggman smiled.

"I've heard you are familiar with Rouge the Bat," Eggman said. "If it's not too much, I need you to spy on her."

"Is that all?" Ebony asked.

"Of course not!" Eggman said. "I need you to seperate her and Shadow at all costs. And relay any interesting information to me."

"You will keep your end of the bargain, I hope," Ebony said. Eggman laughed.

"Of course, of course!" Eggman said, pulling out a bag full of money. "Here's a third of the money. Complete the mission, and I'll give you the rest of it." He tossed the bag to Ebony, along with a comm-link. "You accept?"

"Only too willingly," Ebony said, grabbing the money and comm-link. "I won't let you down, doctor." The rabbit turned around, leaving the room. This was going to be quite a profitable agreement. Money and the chance to win back Rouge. Ebony smiled, giving a casual wave as he left the building.

Ooh, Ebony's working for Eggman! The nerve of that guy. Oh well, please review.
