Okay here is the next chapter I'm very surprised at how it's going and how many of you like this Fan Fiction !
Last time: "I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that any way…" She held out her hand in front of his face, he looked up at her; she smiled her eyes warm and kind looking. Knuckles blushed at her.
Tails watched the whole thing from outside the cabin. He was sitting on a bench outside the cabin looking through the screen door; he smiled at them and looked up at the star filled sky.
'Sure is beautiful tonight.' he thought to himself then he heard a noise in the woods he jumped then he heard it again and again, crunching leaves and the sound of foot steps he looked around frantically.
"Hell no!" he yelled at himself it was coming closer, whatever it was, it was coming closer to them!
Tails kept looking around frantically as the noises became closer; he jumped as he heard laughter around him.
"Who's there!" he yelled he was sweating and scared to death of what was coming then suddenly the noises stopped. He kept looking around knowing that what ever was taunting him would not have just disappeared like that. Then he felt something dip on his face, he then took his finger and wiped what ever it was from his face. It was a red liquid, sticky, and red it was blood.
Tails looked above him where he saw something covered in shadows. It was sitting on a branch smiling at his new victim.
"ROUGE KNUCKLES!" he yelled as he started to run for the door of their cabin, then he felt his body fall to the ground and a sharp pain on his neck with a wet tongue licking against his neck.
Tails looked at the screen an put his hand up to the window as he felt his life being sucked away.
"Rouge Knuckles help me please." Tails was suddenly on his back Rouge was holding him Knuckles was standing behind him.
"Tails are you okay." she asked she was holding a towel against his neck where he had been bitten he smiled at her.
"I'm okay I think." he got up to his feet with a little effort. Rouge looked at the wound on his neck and was wiping off all the blood from his neck.
"Tails there's no wound on your neck at all." she said looking at him Tails looked at her.
"Really there is no wound at all?" Rouge nodded at him
"Not even a scratch just the blood…" She said Knuckles looked down at her with his arms crossed looking as though he could not believe it.
"Tails are you feeling dizzy at all?" Rouge asked him, Tails nodded Rouge put her hands on his shoulders and walked him inside and put him to bed. Knuckles stayed outside looking at the woods around them he knew what was coming and knew he would have to stay up that night if he wanted to protect Rouge.
… Later That Night…
Rouge lay motionless on the bed sleeping, Knuckles sat besides her watching her sleep. Knuckles put a hand on her face and smiled gently. Rouge moved a little toward him mumbling some words and squinting a little.
"Good night he whispered in her ear." he got up a climbed to the top bunk he watch Tails as he seemed as if he were sleeping. Knuckles scowled at him, he may have been gullible but he wasn't stupid. He knew that the bite on Tail's neck was abnormal.
Tails opened on eye and snarled silently waiting for knuckles to sleep. Tails was becoming impatient and was growing hungry. He had lost all of his humanity now but he did not know that because Tails was no longer Tails anymore.
"Your not going to find food here you should go away if you're hungry." Knuckles said to Tails while looking at the ceiling. Tails turned around to look at him.
"That girl you have there looks tasty enough for me, let me have her!" he yelled, Tails stood up and started to walk to Rouges bed. Knuckles jumped down in front of him keeping him from Rouge.
"You hurt her, your dead!" He yelled at Tails crossing his arms and spitting in front of Tails, He looked at Knuckles and smiled. Tail's eyes weren't innocent anymore they were more dark and they were blood red, he had fangs now and his ears were more perked up.
"Listen I'll help you get food just as long as you leave Rouge alone." whispered Knuckles. Tails smiled at him.
"Oh yeah well that changes everything then."
"So we have a deal?" asked Knuckles
"Oh yes."
"Very well then." Knuckles held out his hand for him to shake Tails grabbed his hand and smiled.
"If you fail she dies." Tails pointed to Rouge Knuckles looked at her and frowned.
"Don't worry, I always keep my promises." Knuckles said giving Tails a cold look, Knuckles opened the door quietly taking one last look at Rouge and then left with a deep regret for what he had just done.
… The Next Morning…
Shadow stood above Nikki watching her as she had awoken, she had felt as if she had been hit in the head. She tried sitting up until she cried out in pain.
"Careful you sprained your ankle last night!" yelled Shadow. He laid her back on the bed and put an ice pack on her ankle.
"You have to rest for a little while; the nurse will be her in a little while he sat down on the stool next to her. Nikki sighed and then remembered what he had said to her the night before.
"Nikki, your soft… like…"
"Maria." He smiled at her when she said that.
"Yes, but Maria was not as soft as you…" He got up with effort and staggered to the cabin Nikki quietly fallowed blushing as she went.
"Shadow." said Nikki Shadow was reading a horror book by Steven King; he looked up at her from the book.
"What you said last night did you mean it?" she asked.
"What."
"What you said."
"Oh that… I don't know I can't remember."
The door flung open and the camp nurse came in.
"Hello." she said, the woman was young in her 20's, she was a cat with purple fur, and yellow eyes.
"Sorry for the wait, there are a lot of weird cases around the camp to day." Nikki looked at her for a moment.
"What weird cases?" The nurse looked at her for a moment.
"3 children and 2 camp counselors were found dead this morning." Nikki and Shadow looked at her in shock.
"What was the cause?" asked Nikki she could tell that the nurse did not want to tell them, she was starting to bandage up Nikki's leg, Nikki let out a small cry of pain as she finished tying off the bandage.
"Well looks like the boy her was right your ankle is sprained you better stay off of it for a while there." she said as she picked up her medical kit and started to leave.
"I left a wheel chair for you in case you want to leave but I suggest you stay here." she said as she opened the door and left.
Nikki looked at Shadow and then quickly got up and grabbed the wheel chair and sitting on it.
"Nikki what are you doing?" He asked Nikki started to try and wheel herself out of the cabin.
"What else I'm investigating!" She said to him
"Those people died from something and I want to know what!"
"Well." said Shadow as he put his hands on the handle bars of her wheel chair.
"You're not doing it alone." he said smiling at her, she looked up at him and blushed at his smile.
'Who could have thought that Shadow the Hedgehog had a nice and caring smile.'
