Back with a new chapter (Excellent!)! By the way, I understand that my other story is quite vulgar. It is the more random and rough fiction. I still personally love it :D. I am however sorry if you do not enjoy it as much as this one. This chapter works on the humor aspect of the story :3. But there is…SLASH! Nah. Joking. No slash in this chapter. And to hell with it! Shadow is now, sooo gay :D.

Shadow: No way! Pulls out a magnum BLAM! BLAM!

DA Sly: twitching on floor Where do they get the damn guns?

Chapter 3

Shadow woke up slowly half expecting Sonic to be lying in his bed even though he refused to share, but to his surprise Sonic lay on the floor, the blanket and pillow from the broken bed laid out on the flat surface. Shadow, surprisingly, felt sort of bad about not sharing. Sure it would have been awkward, odd, weird and uncomfortable for him, but at least Sonic wouldn't have to sleep on the floor. Shadow looked at the clock. 8:30 it read. They had two hours before that weird thing where everyone met each other. What did the sign say again? Familiarization Sensation or some crap. Who the hell comes up with that? Shadow pondered for a moment before pulling his ass out off bed. Shadow studied Sonic's slumbering form.

'He looks like…Maria…' Shadow smiled slightly as he remember his cheerful little sister at home. If Shadow was a "nice" person he'd let Sonic sleep a little bit longer. But he found no meaning for nice. There was no nice in his dictionary or vocabulary. There was pleasant, but no nice. He also had mice in his vocabulary but no nice. If you tried to ask Shadow about "nice" he'd either punch you in the face or stare at you until you felt really awkward and went away. If there's a "nice" in your dictionary your dictionary is wrong. Don't ask why. It just is. But coincidently (as I just spent the last few sentences explaining) Shadow is not nice.

"Sonic!" Shadow yelled right in his ear. Sonic jumped.

"Ack! What is it? Noon already?" Sonic moaned trying to lie back down.

"Get up. We need to leave at 9:30." Shadow prodded Sonic's body with his foot.

"That's not very nice." Sonic mumbled. Shadow stared at Sonic, his intense gaze making Sonic look away. Sonic felt funny as he felt the dark one's gaze fixed on him. Sonic swiftly shuffled into the bathroom, with a drunken swagger like stride. Sonic smiled with relief and jumped as someone coughed behind him. Sonic turned to find Shadow standing there. Sonic gazed at him shocked.

"How'd you get in here so fast?" Sonic wondered bewildered. Shadow shrugged.

"I got mad skills. Don't question the mad skills." Sonic snorted. Shadow glared and stuck his tongue out. Then there was an awkward silence that consisted of the two alternatively glaring or sending a searching glance in direction of the other. This lasted for several moments before Shadow pointed at the window.

"Look! It's Craze!" Shadow said surprised. Sonic snorted again.

"What ever you say handsome. But seriously don't you think your childish games are far too weak minded for an intelligent mind like mine? I mean seriously, I was half expecting you say, 'It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a-" Sonic was cut short as the window was pried open and the white and black hedgehog known as Craze came though the window, a bungee chord wrapped around his waist. His quills looked a little better today though they were still slightly messy. The twitching eye, for the moment was still. Sonic shirked away from the hedgehog when he laid his sights on him. Sonic personally wasn't scared of Craze except for one thing.

"Holy crap! What has happened to you hair! It is simply ghastly!" Sonic pointed at horror at the messy quills. Sonic, having perfect quills (even in the morning) could not fathom the sight of another whose hair/quills was messy. Craze was confused. He had been asked a lot of odd questions but never any of this scale. Shadow sweat dropped at the scene. Craze just stood looking confused. Sonic pointed at the quills. Shadow shook his head. They were both clueless really.

"Say what?" Sonic shook his head sympathetically.

"Your quills! Come here, I'll fix them for you." Sonic attacked Craze's quills with a comb. Shadow watched the scene with mild interest in the mirror as he brushed his teeth. Craze struggled and finally Sonic pulled back.

"Ha! There. That's much better." Sonic said triumphantly. Craze looked in the mirror and decided he liked it even if some deranged hedgehog had attacked him with a comb. Sonic has slicked his wild quills back giving them a gelled look. Craze smiled a pleasant smile.

"Anyway, what's your name my good friend." Sonic asked attempting to push Shadow away from the sink so he could use it. Shadow grunted and moved.

"Names Craze. I thought I'd drop in an' see what my buddy Shadow's doin'." Craze pointed to the bungee chord. Then he removed and pushed it out the window so it just hung there. Shadow raised an eyebrow.

"Explain one thing. How'd you manage to use a bungee chord from only room two rooms down from mine on the same floor?" Shadow questioned.

"That's easy. I went up to Rouge's room and jumped out the window there." Shadow sweat dropped.

"Why didn't ya just walk?" Shadow was just confused at this point. Craze paused calculating.

"I didn't think o' that. Your a smart one alright." Sonic sweat dropped.

"Well I'd hate to break up your "intelligent" conversation but I need to use the bathroom!" Sonic ushered them out and slammed the door. Craze glanced at Shadow, and Shadow shrugged.

"Nice place." Craze commented looking around. He settled himself into one of the two armchairs that cluttered up the rather spacious room. Shadow dropped into the one next to it.

"What happened to that bed? By the looks of it no one will be sleeping in it for a while. And why is there a teddy bear and a bunny lying in that bed?" Craze was bursting with the most random questions. Shadow explained the events of the previous night smiling slightly. Craze laughed his warm laugh. Sonic exited the bathroom running a brush through his quills slicking them back. A quill or two refused to brushed back so they hung down freely.

"Breakfast!" Sang Sonic. He started out the door followed by Craze and then turned around. "Coming?" Sonic glanced at Shadow who didn't budge. Shadow shook his head.

"I don't do breakfast. But…if ya give me five bucks I'll join ya." Shadow grinned slyly. Sonic put on a little pout.

"That's not fair!" Sonic growled forking up some of the green stuff (not weed! Money $$!). Shadow gave him a little half smile.

"Life's not fair."
