Our Pasts entwine,and is different from out future4

Sonic returned home,silently,Shadow was going to stay at his own empire a bit longer before transfering over.How he didn't know,but it would be soon enough.In the mean time though...

"Whats the deal between you two?And I want an answer"the question/demmand was directed at Rouge,who was flying silently behind him.She didn't say anything but just looked at him.Sighing,she gave in.

"Remember how...you know what,never mind.You only need my assistance,I don't have to explain myself to you"she hissed and flew ahead.Truth was...even though she hated to admit it,Shadow did the right thing locking her away.He had his own reasons,and she understood them.He one,locked her away because she was to dangerous,and two,he didn't want her to have to deal with all the suffering of war.Last she saw him before being sealed away,he said he loved her and this is why he did what he did.But during that moment Rouge had felt so afriad to be alone that she had shouted at him liar,and placed a curse of no emotional feelings as long as she was in that thing.Fifty years without emotion,yet he still didn't suffer the way she intended him to.Probably because she didn't say it with much feeling it probably didn't take effect.When she had first met him,it was before he was a General,in fact he was just a traveling mercinary,being paid for certian services.Someone had hired him to kill the vampire haunting the town,which was a straight up lie.When he had cornered her,she had tricked him by kissing him then kneeing him in the stomach.He hadn't took it to well and came right after her.Afraid to die at that point Rouge asked for an honest kiss from him and well...things had heated up greatly that night.Shaking the haunting memories of being happy she opened the heavy stoned doors and jumped upon the ceiling.Even though her robes were like a loose dress,they didn't drift above her head,they stayed as though she were standing right side up.Sonic had came in soon after.Looking up towards the ceiling he crossed his arms.

"Ok,if your not going to talk to me about your problems,then please help me solve mine.Now how am I supposed to get Rose on my side?"

"Her name is Amelia,but shortened she's Amy.And wait a few days,Shadow's word should travel to her soon,alright?"Rouge replied coldly.Sonic roled his eyes and travel upstairs into the spacious library.Looking through the heavily laiden volumes,coming across the meanings of sorcorery.Or in other words,learning german or something.In plain english,he didn't understand it.

Rouge was reading on the ceiling,a book about the world 300 years ago.Not to great...what a minute.Robotnik was king for 100 years,but thats not posible,humans can't live that long.And Queen Maria ruled for another 100 years and now Eggman was getting his.How the hell did these humans live so long.A flash of light suddenly sparked next to her and upside down there stood Shadow.Rouge wasn't expecting it so she fell off and hit the floor hard.

"Ow...that hurt".Careful not to do the same thing Shadow walked down the side of the wall.

"Didn't mean to frighten you".

"But you did so anyway...so...can I help you?"she asked standing up.

"Yeah...where's the blue one?"

"Upstairs".

"Could you get him for me?"

"You've got feet and a heartbeat,whats stopping you?"she growled.Shadow smirked.

"Nothing,just wanted to hear you growl,its kind of entertaining".

"You'd better make sure I don't find your room while you sleep".

"Why,are you going to join me?"the smirk got wider and his eyes darkened.Rouge's cheeks turned bright red.

"N...no,otherwise you'll wake up to no heartbeat the next day".She turned and started to go,but his quick reflexes grabbed her and kissed her.Her cheeks turned even deeper red as his lips let go of her's and a smile crossed his lips.Knowin what he was about to get he braced himself,it'd been awhile since he did that,but it was worth it.Using vampiric force,he was shoved into the wall,but his feet weren't on the ground and Rouge was forcing him to become one with the stone,wings flapping.

"Y...You don't have...p...permission to kiss me!"she let go and he slid to the floor,an evil smile on his face.She flew past the stairs and around the dark corner and didn't return.Shadow snapped out of it,his eyes returning to normal.Why did he act that way around just her?Damn,he was still in love with her.But now was not the time for love,it was the time for war.His messanger was already on his way to give the message to Amy.Wouldn't be long now.

"Hmm...wonder where my room seriously is"walking upstairs he started to explore his new home.Not to shabby,but not exactly a homey feeling.When turning the corner he knocked right into her ex highness Tikal.

"Sorry General,I didn't see you"she bowed and continued on her way.Ok,he was going to have to make a few changes for this place to suite him better.Crossing a dark medal door he stopped.Opening it he saw chains and blood stained walls.So this is the dungeon,ok at least he had one.The next room,the door was opened.Books poured off the shelves and in a seat somewhat away,sat Sonic trying to comprehend the meanings of magic.Not likely to happen.

"You should be planning your next move,not sitting here waiting for Rouge to tell you"Shadow spoke and sat across the table and proped his head in his palms.Sonic looked up and blinked.

"I have no idea what I should do next.I thought I should wait to hear from Commander Rose first.What do you suggest?"

"How bout a head strat on things.Her royal highness,Princess Sally.Her kingdom is being rebuilt and her father's armies are resourceful to the king.Kidnap Sally,hold her hostage until we can confirm how to kill the entire army that way Eggman will be out of allies from the trees".Sonic humphed as though considering the idea,and a random warrior of Shadow's poked his head through the door.Shadow turned in his seat and all the warrior did was nod.Shadow dismissed him and turned back towards Sonic.

"It seems Amelia said she's help.Now,I think we'll meet her at the Palace.Ready your...warriors I suppose.And yourself".

"What for?"

"You didn't think that just because I'm on your side all your war tactics would be easy did you?"

"Rouge!"Sonic pounded onto the door.Damn this girl,she needed to help in a time like this.

"Leave her"Shadow said sheathing his blades,"She doesn't need to come,only when something is particularly dangerous.But for now let her rest.Besides,you shouldn't abuse the privalige of having a sorcoress on your side either".

"Then are you sure you don't want to stay then,don't want to think you have to do everything.I could lead your armies down there and..."Sonic didn't finish before Shadow laughed loudly.

"My warriors won't listen to you"the laughter was gone from him and now only a serious expression remained.He turned and walked away,Sonic at his heels.Rouge's door cracked open,her hands glowing a bluish black.She fired the magic at both the blades of Shadow and Sonic's sword.Closing the door she leaned against it.

'Let them be safe'.

"Commander!Co...Commander?" a chamelon questioned.His name was Espio and he had a unique fighting skill,one passed down by ninjas and monks.He was also second in command.Amelia Rose was picking up her stone mallet when he entered.

"Are we going somewhere Amy?" Amy smiled,her evil smile.She had not always been a commander,in fact long ago she used to be hardly a warrior.But that had all changed when her village came under attack and she picked up a heavy mallet.Had it not been for a blue blur,she would have never made it.But the blue blur had saved her,and she didn't even learn his name.A blue hedgehog,she remembered him clearly when he stopped,a purple one on the hedges above.They looked alike,like brother and sister.He was certianly handsome,and she had found herself instantly in love with him.Changin her look so that she wasn't a damsel in distress,she looked forward to his return.But he didn't come back,only unless her village was in danger.No guy would want a chicken who couldn't do anything but scream when danger came her way.So she decided to toughen up.Making leather armor in a fearful design.The only part of her exposed was her stomach and arms.And the rule was,if your opponent could reach you,you could reach them.But not so,they'd never get close enough before being crushed or sliced in half.

"We're going to Sally's place.For a little sleepover.Then we're heading to this new Lord Sonic's place who ever the hell he is.The only reason we're going is because our ally Shadow is helping.Now,ready everyone up,we're going out to play"Amy licked her lips.Her own warriors were dressed in black leather as well,but with blue skulls on the front.Amy's slender quills stuck out like a moehawk on her back.She didn't wear a cloak,her skirt was enough,and it never went above her head.She headed down stairs,taking a sifth with her,it was her nickname to some,Death.She would only use it though in case her hammer got to far away from her.Espio seemed to be having trouble rounding up the troops,four or five idiots had ego problems so they were always challening people.Amy came to a halt before them.Raising her mallet she swung it sideways,hitting all four of them.And since there was spikes on the walls thanks to Shadow's design...well they didn't get back up.

"We're family here.No one is to fight among others,if you do fine,I have no problem making sure the stronger portion of this army survives.Your all stonrg,just some of you are stupid.Now,someone find me our lovely scientist Miles".
