Black Jewel

Chapter 1

A Proposal

Metal Sonic held two Chaos Emeralds in his hands. "So, do we have a deal, Rouge?" The metal being asked the theiving bat Rouge.

"I guess so. Explain it to me again." Rouge said sounding very confusing.

"It's very simple once you think about it. I can promise you endless jewels and diamonds. Jewels and diamonds as far as the eye can see. All you have to do is find the 5 remaining Chaos Emeralds. That's it. I already have these two. And to help you out further, I can tell you who has each of the 5 emeralds." Metal explained.

Rouge thought the fact that having almost infinite jewels would be nice. Espically since she wouldn't give up jewels for the world.

"Ok, so what do you want them for?"

"I have my reasons."

Rouge thought about it. "Before I establish anything, tell me who has the emeralds.

"Sonic has the dark blue emerald, Tails has the yellow emerald, Knuckles has the red emerald, Espio has the pink emerald and Shadow has the white transparent emerald."

Rouge pondered and thought 'Well, Shadow and that annoying echidna is going to be a challenge, Sonic may be a slight problem, but the others should be easy.' Then she problaimed. "Ok. I'll do it."

"Great. Then it's settled."

Metal was about to speed away until Rouge asked one more question. "One more thing. How exactly should I get the emeralds?"

"Hey, you work for the president, you almost stole the Master Emerald, and, well...you are attractive. You'll figure something out." Metal then speeded away.

Rouge then thought hard about how to get the emeralds. "Hmm...I know! I'll give them 'what they want'...at the cost of an emerald."
