Dead silence in the middle of the next night. Soni was sound asleep after a long day of hanging out with The Chaotix and fending off the paparazzi, many wanted personal interviews and details of the rumors surrounding her and Shadow. She was able to answer most but anything with Shadow's name she chose to remain silent, anything involving the new face in her life "Knuckles" she also chose to be quiet about. Towards the end of the night it was just her and Knuckles on a very romantic dinner date, the date was amazing but did have its moments like Knuckles punching a paparazzi or Soni bumping noses with Knuckles cause she didn't realize how long his snout was. Their night ended with Knuckles dropping her off at her house and leaving her with a kiss and a slight regret he couldn't stay the night due to the Chaotix needing him for personal reasons.

Soni heard a door creak in her house and sleepily crawled out of bed to go investigate, she looked around her room for a weapon and could only find a broom. Just as Soni put on her slippers she heard loud crashing and things being torn apart, in a panic Soni grabbed her phone and texted Knuckles that someone or something have broken into her house and that she is calling the cops now. Just as she dialed her phone lost service and Wi-Fi was cut, she kept a tight grip on her broom and ran to hide in the bathroom, entering the bathroom she went to flick on the lights but the power was gone too. Shaking. Soni wondered if the persons in her house cut the security before arriving and who was after her, was it her wealth? Was it one of the precious gems in her house? No one would break into a house over the Chaos Emeralds would they? After all it was just legend over it's powers... Wait. Was someone after her? Soni had received some pretty questionable fan mail in her life and even had creeps OBSESSED with her throughout high school. The footsteps had gotten closer and closer to her bedroom door, Soni held her breath and pulled her robe tight together, she slipped her phone into a hidden robe pocket and gripped the broom tighter. The room was so dark she couldn't see anything and had to rely on her sharp hearing to save her, Soni had a feeling that wasn't going to be enough though. Soni pressed herself against the wall in helping her escape her fate, the footsteps got even closer and soon opened the bathroom door, a gun clicked and in walked the person hunting her down. Soni swung the broom downwards towards where she assumed the feet were to trip them up, the persons fell to the ground and Soni ran out of the room but was quickly stopped by the person grabbing her leg. Soni fell to the ground and tried to crawl away from him, the person flipped over and tied her legs together, moving up he tied her arms back behind her and soon covered her mouth before picking her up and carrying her out of the house.

Soni was dazed and confused over what just happened. Who was her captor? Where was she going? How was she going to be saved if she couldn't escape on her own? Soni's giant front yard was completely shrouded in darkness but in the darkness the moonlight shined onto her and the captor, Soni panicked and started wriggling around to escape but soon had the lose hand of the captor holding a gun to her head. The trunk of his car popped open and Soni was tossed inside, the lid was slammed shut and the car started, soon she was getting driven to a unknown new location or he was gonna drive this junk car into some water. Soni couldn't believe that Shadow was straight kidnapping her and for what? For dumping him? The drive was getting long and the oxygen in the trunk was getting thin that Soni passed out, when she awoke her ankle was cuffed and a long chain followed it. Where in the world was she? Soni pulled he phone out and tried GPS or texting but there was no signal to be found, she checked her surroundings but nothing was familiar and it all seemed bleak. A concrete basement that was completely void of sound and light, over in the far corner was a shower that was completely exposed and nothing to cover one if they went to clean themselves. The water able to flow to into the drain, walled off on one side was a toilet, another corner had a mini bed that wasn't much to sleep on, a small hole in the wall that seemed very suspicious but that was the least of her concerns. It was getting late and her body couldn't take anymore stress so she collapsed in exhaustion on the cold concrete floor.

Knuckles popped up from looking over the evidence they already had against Shadow to look t his phone buzzing non stop, text after text being spammed to him, he picked up the phone tirelessly and began to start reading the texts. Soni was scared and in danger, Knuckles was about to run out the door but then she said she called 911, Knuckles breathed a sigh of relief but still remained vigilant of anymore fright. No texts back. Hour after hour he waited for a response but the night gave only silence after sometime he woke up Espio and had him go with to check out her house considering he was the most stealthy of the whole group, hustling into Knuckles car they took off towards her abode, the cold winter night gave a feeling of uneasiness. They arrived at her house to see it roped off and surrounded by police, bright lights shining into the house and many flashes of the camera. Knuckles signaled to Espio to sneak around back and get whatever evidence he could to add to Shadow's case or have to start another, an onslaught of paparazzi arrived for pictures and details on the story not to mention the news arriving for a live story. Knuckles stood back to listen and keep audio recordings of his surroundings, maybe there was some hidden info to uncover plus he hoped Espio could uncover some fingerprints or something that could pin point who was here.

"Hello, this is Sasha Cat live from the house of world famous singer, Soni Hedgehog. Unfortunate new sprouting that someone has broken into the singers house and presumptuously kidnapped from her abode. Police are dusting for information and are searching for the kidnapper. We will keep you updated with all information as it becomes available. Back to you Dan." The cameras stopped rolling and they wrapped up filming, they left while police still did what they need to by checking the area and keeping back paparazzi. Knuckles asked some about what happened but was only given the same stuff he already knew or asked to leave if he wasn't police or a media outlet, he went back to his car where Espio was waiting with a bunch of evidence to be looked into. Espio had two petri dishes with blood samples in them and sealed into ziplocked bags, not to mention loose quills he found in the bathroom. Espio mentioned how he put a bug into in the cameras around the house and will be able to tap into them from the agency, he also said they needed to leave before they became suspects in her case. Knuckles agreed and left the area to head back to their house to review the evidence and begin pin pointing details.
