Sorry! I forgot to put Rouge and Knuckles in chapter 4! But I promised to put Shadow and the chapter was getting long… so yeah.

Knuckles: You forgot about us!

Rouge: Knuckie! (Hugs Knuckles)

Knuckles: What the fuck, batgirl!

Rouge: I love you, Knux!

Knuckles running off screaming, leaving Rouge standing there bawling like Amy in episode 52 of Sonic X.

Rouge turned bipolar: Yes, the Master Emerald is mine! (Sniffle)

TO THE STORY! Warning: Weird hidden humor...


Chapter 5: A long Farewell, (this is still the same night)

Rouge crept slowly towards the laughing echidna, with a dangerous death glare. She smirked evilly having visions of strangling the echidna and kicking him in the balls.

First there was one drop of rain, and then it came pouring down suddenly like the clouds were falling or something like that. Knuckles stopped laughing and look at the sky which shot bolts of lightening. Rouge also stopped in her steps still glaring evilly at the echidna, obviously still pissed off.

"Rouge, it's raining." Knuckles said dumbfounded, pointing out the obvious.

"Don't think I already know that, rad red?" She rolled her eyes and ran forward to grab Knuckles hand. Knuckles blushed just a shade lighter than his red fur and looked questioningly at Rouge.

"C'mon, Knuckie! It's raining, dumbass! Let's go somewhere else before my makeup smears!" She snapped.

Knuckles nodded and raped her (lol, just kidding). Knuckles smirked and dragged her along into the forest. They ran until they stopped in a clearing, again, but the rain could not seep in through the canopy. They both collapsed sitting down. Rouge glared at him more gently and frowned, wiping her smudged eye shadow off her eyes. Knuckles gulped actually seeing her eyelids without makeup. She actually looked a bit unlike herself, because she probably wears her makeup 24/7.

"What're you looking at, Knucklehead? I look horrible!" She shrieked and hid her face with her gloved hands.

Knuckles didn't say anything, but just grinned, something rarely done. He shook his head softly and chuckled.

"You look fine, batgirl!"

Rouge looked up and as soon as she saw his cheery face she brightened up. Knuckles wiped away the excess makeup caressing it away. She arrogantly swatted away the caring hand gently.

"Aw, cut it out, Knux!" She blushed 20 times more than Knuckles did not long ago. Rouge stood up and looked warily around her. She looked at her watch and gasped silently.

"Um, it's getting really dark. I, er, should get going," She frowned looking down at Knuckles.

"Hey, you can always stay for the night!" Knuckles were still in a good mood.

"Since when did you get all happy-go-lucky?" Rouge talked seductively, a little playfully.

"Since I met you." He smiled even wider, knowing that it would scare the crap out of her. This did creep out Rouge, but she ignored it. She whipped a finger across his nose tauntingly and stood again seductively, swinging her hips. Knuckles only kept staring with a blank face, his smile gone.

"Well, I still have to go, Knuckie. Plus, I'm not much of an outdoor sleeper," She took flight, but hovered a few inches off the ground. Knuckles stood up and had a really desperate look on his face. It seemed he didn't want her to go.

Rouge was about to turn around and fly home when Knuckles tip-toed, whispering "Batgirl…", grabbing her…vest and pulled her close to his…lips, but they didn't kiss. Knuckles could still smell the scent of her strawberry lip gloss and that made him want her more. Rouge could hear his soft breaths on her…lips. When a blinding flash of thunder had sounded, Knuckles took the final…blow. Every moment seemed to slow down, as Knuckles pulled in for the kiss.

The kiss seemed new and smooth as the two became more aware of what they had just done. Rouge reluctantly gave in and also settled into his lips. Rouge had a hard time still keeping flight, so she fell down on top of him, still kissing.

Just then, during the kiss, Sonic walked in the clearing groggily, probably from waking up from the loud…thunder. He looked up from the ground and saw the two kissing. It took him a moment to realize what they were doing, because he thought it was a dream…a good dream, being the immature, wanting hedgehog. But when he got his senses back he shrieked twice as loud as he did the other time.

"YIKES!" Sonic sped away at the speed of sound from the clearing and as soon as he was off Angel Island he collapsed, unconscious, again…

Rouge and Knuckles didn't seem aware of the hedgehog-that-needs-balls screaming. They pulled back and stared into each others eyes. She had a slight smile and lifted herself off the ground, giving Knuckles a hand to get up also. Rouge turned around and flew into the night sky without a word.

Knuckles sighed contentedly and sat down leaning against a tree. He didn't know why he had done that, it hadn't even crossed his mind. He couldn't object, and even if it gave him a choice he would have gladly not done it. 'Now Rouge hates me, knowing how I feel. In fact, she probably know how I feel more than I do myself! If that makes sense...' He sat there staring into the dark canopy ceiling, still day dreaming. Wishing that moment would last forever…


Sonic ran out of the floating island, not really knowing where to go. Sonic decided to sleep in a tree in Twinkle Park. As he drifted off to sleep he didn't realize he was thinking about Amy and him replacing Knuckles and Rouge at that moment.


Sorry it's short, but I forgot to add this to chap. 4! Oh well! Review please! It would help!
