Post Game 3: Silver and Whisper

Five Years after Sonic's return

"You'll pay for this!" Eggman shouted as he flew away, his latest grand scheme finally stopped.

"Think he accepts rings or boots to the butt?" Sonic asked with a laugh.

"At this rate, probably both." Silver said, joining in on the laugh.

"So, you think this fixed up your future? What did you say it was?" Sonic asked.

"Giant robot owls taking over the world… and yeah, I think it did." Silver said, though he looked a little… down about it.

"Hey, is something wrong?" Sonic asked.

"I just… do you think this will ever end?" Silver asked. "I have come back and forth how many times now? Every time I think the future is safe, things just end up messed up again… sometimes even worse then the last time… Even when everything LOOKED really peaceful, that's all it was… it just, looked like it."

"You're starting to get frustrated then?" Sonic asked.

"Yeah, just a bit…"

"Well… why don't you stay here?" Sonic asked. "I mean, if we do finally make the future a peaceful place, don't you think it would be… I dunno… depressing to stay there?"

"What do you mean?" Silver asked.

"Well, everyone you know is alive now, not in the future." Sonic explained. "Wouldn't you just want to be back here anyways?"

"I… didn't really think about that." Silver said. "I guess that would make sense though…"

"Seriously, if you ask me, I think we would all love having you around this time a lot more often, and not just for saving the world." Sonic said.

"… Alright, I think I'll give it a shot." Silver said.

"Great! How about we meet up with the others and tell them the good news." Sonic said.

"Just one problem though… where am I gonna live?" Silver asked.

"Hmmmm… well, I think I have an idea." Sonic said.

"And that is?" Silver asked.

"Well…."

Later

"NOPE! NOT DOING IT!" Silver said as he attempted to fly away.

"Come on dude!" Sonic said as he cut the time traveler off. "I am sure Whisper would love the company!"

"But… I barely know her! Do you honestly think she would be ok with me living with her?!" Silver asked.

"I would like that actually."

The new voice brought silence to the time traveler, as he turned around to get a look at the source.

"Oh, hey Whisper! You overhear us?" Sonic asked.

"Yes, I did." Whisper responded. "Silver, you are more than welcome to live here until you find a more… permanent, space."

"Uh… I… ok!" Silver said. "But… why?"

"What do you mean?" Whisper asked.

"I thought you liked living alone, you always seemed to prefer to stay to yourself." Silver said.

"Well, I have been trying to be more… outgoing lately." Whisper explained. "But more importantly, you and Sonic were the first people I considered friends since… well…"

"You don't have to say it if you don't want to." Silver said.

"Regardless, you were some of the first people I considered to be friends in a very long time… you're very important to me." Whisper explained.

Silver smiled at this. "Thanks Whisper… it means a lot to me to hear you say that."

"Well, I'll leave you two to it!" Sonic said.

"Oh please, why don't you stay for a bit?" Whisper asked. "Tangle and Jewel just gave me some wonderful tea, and I am sure you would enjoy it."

"Eh, sure. Why not?" Sonic said before they all went inside.
