Is anything really happening? Is everything just a complex illusion designed to feign existence? Does anyone even know the answers to questions like this? I highly doubt anyone knows. No one may ever know. It's just an eternal mystery that will go forever unsolved. But the point is it's a really nice Sunday and everyone was kind of just hanging around and it was nice.

But then the door suddenly stopped being attached to the wall and began being on the floor. A pair of feet landed on the door on the floor. Said feet were very edgy and the guy who owned the feet and the edginess was wearing a little skeleton.

"HAPPY HALLOWEEN, MOTHERFUCKERS!" screamed Shadow very suddenly while dumping a bunch of skeletons on the floor.

Everyone was now staring at him.

Sonic was the first to stare in a way that was less silent. "...Shadow, it's the middle of November. Halloween was two weeks ago."

"Hmph, the only reason Halloween ends is because society wants it to!" Shadows fins were clenched. Except he didn't have fins. They were not clenched. He did have fists though, and those fists were very clenched. "But I refuse to along with what society wants! SOCIETY CANNOT CONTAIN MY EDGINESS!"

"...these are fake skeletons, right?" questionated Rouge as she looked at all the skeletons with worriedness.

Shadow looked at Rouge in some kind of way. "Why would I want fake skeletons? You can't make fake skeletons dance! NECROMANCY DOES NOTHING TO PLASTIC!"

Mild horror threw up all over her face. "Wait, you dug up real- ...are you wearing a child's skeleton?"

"IT'S WHAT SHE WOULD HAVE WANTED!" screamed Shadow all defensively and stuff in response.

"GASP!" gasped Knuckles. "DANCING SKELETONS? I LOVE WATCHING SKELETONS DANCE!"

"Dude, this is gonna be great," said Tails with interest.

Sonic sighed. "You dug up a bunch of people's skeletons."

"Yes," replied Shadow all noddingly.

"Just so you could make them dance?" Frustrated gestures were happening out of Sonic's arms now.

Shadow looked at Sonic in a way that would suggest that he saw no moral issues with any of this. "What else would I do with skeletons, fuck them?"

"WE'RE GONNA FUCK THE SKELETONS?" screamed Amy joyously.

"AMY DON'T FUCK THE SKELETONS!" Rouge yelled kind of firmly but also a bit weirded outly.

"I'd be pretty into fucking some of these skeletons too," said Silver while looking at the skeletons all over the floor. "Could be fun to try..." He then put on a pair of sunglasses. "...boning them."

"NO ONE IS FUCKING THE SKELETONS!" yelled Sonic in a way that was probably loud. "Goddamnit, we're going to have to bury them again aren't we?"

"Not until after I make them dance," declarationed Shadow while drawing a pentagram on the floor with blood.

Rouge's face then had more frustration and concern. "Okay where did you get that blood?"

"From my own body! Why would I use someone else's blood for necrodancy when mine's already full of Satan?" Shadow said all edgily.

"...good point actually. Still. Taking these back to the graveyard." And then Rouge began picking up the skeletons. "Come on Sonic, we've got skeletons to bury."

"Why not him?" Sonic questioned annoyedly while gesturing at Shadow. "He's the one who dug them up in the first place."

"You really think it's a good idea to bring him back to the place full of skeletons?"

"Fuck, you're right," said Sonic as a frustrated sigh happened out of his face.

And so they grabbed all the skeletons shoved them in a bag. Everyone was disappointed about how there wouldn't be dancing skeletons or skeleton fucking. Also Shadow had to take off the little dead kid's skeleton he was wearing and he was really butthurt about that. Anyway Sonic and Rouge left with all the skeletons and stuff and there was disappointedness.

Tails produced sad words from his mouth. "Shit man, those dancing skeletons would have been real nice."

"I really wanted to fuck those skeletons too..." said Amy also with sadness.

"Yes, the skeletons are gone..." Shadow said in a way that suggested something suspicious.

"WE COULD HAVE SEEN DANCING! BUT NOW THERE IS NO DANCING..." Knuckles yelled sadly. Basically everyone was just kind of sad. "IF ONLY THERE WERE MORE SKELE-"

"...OR ARE THEY?" yelled Shadow dramatically as he pulled out another skeleton. It was kind of dirty and also covered in lube. Because I mean, you can't just shove an entire skeleton up your ass without covering it with lube.

"GASP!" gasped Knuckles dramatically at this development.

"Oh man, are we gonna see a skeleton dance after all?" Tails asked with his mouth.

"YES WE ARE!" Shadow also nodded dramatically while yelling that. "AND AFTER THE DANCING YOU CAN FUCK IT!"

Silver immediately felt a bunch of interest happen. "So we can fuck 'em after all, huh? Nice."

"YES!" screamed Amy with happyingnesslyness.

And so Shadow dumped the skeleton on the blood pentagram and everyone watched stuff happen.

"YEEESSSS!" yelled Shadow as the skeleton was beginning to get up. "NOW THE DANCING WILL- what the fuck is it doing?"

The skeleton was suddenly getting less skeletonish and more not-a-skeletonish. Life was happening at it.

"I'm alive again!?" the skeleton that was getting very not-a-skeleton declarified to themselves with a bit of surprise. "I always knew I was too ameowzing to stay dead!"

"...yeah, that's notdancing," Silver said obviously.

The skeleton was now mostly full of muscles and flesh and stuff and also was now looking around a bit. "Ooh, and not in a coffin either! Now that would have been clawstrophobic!"

"Dude, are skeletons supposed to make cat puns?" Tails questioned. "'cause I don't think that's, like, a skeleton thing."

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?" Shadow yelled at the now mostly-not-a-skeleton. "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO COME BACK TO LIFE AND MAKE PUNS! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DANCE!"

Silver shrugged. "I don't know, I'd be pretty into fucking a skeleton who made puns," he said as he thought about how much he'd love to fuck a pun skeleton. Just like a bunch of people on Tumblr.

"Pfff, do you even know who I am?" the skeleton asked. But the skeleton wasn't a skeleton now. He had flesh and organs and stuff. And fur. Brown fur. Like the kind a bobcat would have. Bobcat fur. "I am the best mascat with attitude according to literally everyone! The name's Bubsy! Purrhaps you've heard of me?"

Everyone kind of just stared at him and tried to think about if they had any idea of who he was. None of them had any idea of who he was.

"Dude, what the fuck is a Bubsy?" asked Tails after a moment.

"...none of you've heard of me?" Bubsy was really surprised about this. "What a catastrophe! Guess this means that it's time for a comeback!"

"Making a comeback?" Shadow began while pulling out a gun. "More like MAKING A COMEBACK TO DEATH, BITCH!" And then he shot Bubsy in the face. Death resulted.

"Dude, that got resolved really fast," Tails pointed out in some kind of way. "Seems kinda weird, ya know?"

Shadow wasn't really paying much attention to what Tails said because he was too annoyed to care. "Well now I have to get rid of all this flesh and meat!" And then he went off to grab a knife.

But then his foot suddenly was being grabbed right when he turned around. That grabbing was caused by a hand. Bubsy's hand. And then the hand was moved in a way that made Shadow fall over all fallingly.

"Nine lives, meowtherfucker!" yelled Bubsy as he and jumped on Shadow and stood on top of him all dramatically and stuff and grabbed his gun before he could.

And then Bubsy used the gun to stab Shadow in the back. Repeatedly. Over and over again. It was fatal somehow.

"HA! YOU WERE NOT PREPURRED FOR THE WRATH OF BUBSY!" And so he stood there on top of Shadow's corpse, posing dramatically and triumphantly while everyone else stared really surprisededly.

And it was at that moment that the door opened and Rouge showed up.

"Hey, so, we actually have no idea which graveyard you- ...what the hell happened here."

"Goddamnit, I knew something would go wrong," said the voice that belonged to Sonic who was standing just outside. But then he went back into the room and saw the room's roomness and began to stare at it with the shock and fury of some kind of shocked furiousness. "...Bubsy."

A bit of excitement happened on Bubsy's face. "Finally, someone who remempurrs me!" Said excitement immediately unhappened when he recognized the words' angry sayer. "...welp, I'm outta here!"

And thus Bubsy jumped out the window and ran off.

"GET BACK HERE YOU PIECE OF SHIT RIPOFF!" Sonic yelled out the window as running away happened.

While that was happening Rouge was looking at Shadow's corpse. "Well, he's dead." Her foot then suddenly started being used for prodding at the body.

"What?" whated Shadow while suddenly being less dead.

"Really? You got killed by fucking Bubsy?" Sonic questioned irritatedly. "How is he even alive?"

"YOU CANNOT PROVE THAT I SHOVED HIS SKELETON UP MY ASS AND TRIED TO MAKE IT DANCE! THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF THAT!" said Shadow in a very quiet and definitely not loud way while getting up and pulling the gun out of his back.

"So," because Rouge, "who was that Bubsy guy exactly?"

Sonic sighed, because that's a thing he does a lot. "An old 'mascot with attitude' ripoff, and the most fucking annoying guy I have ever met. I thought maybe since he was dead I'd never have to deal with him again." He then looked over at Shadow with a face that suggested frustration. "But no. Of course not. Because apparently you just had to bring him back. TWENTY GODDAMN YEARS LATER, AND I STILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH HIM!"

"HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE ALIVE! HE WAS SUPPOSED TO DANCE!" declared Shadow, for dancing was the entire point of everything.

"WELL HE'S DANCING NOW ALRIGHT!" screamed Sonic in a tone that suggested anger. "DANCING RIGHT OUT THE WINDOW!"

"Why didn't you just run after him after he jumped out the window anyway?" asked Rouge, for that occurred to her and stuff.

Sonic's eyes' wideness increased. His face did the kind of thing that suggested he was all like 'oh shit you're right'. He then turned around and ran out the door wordlessly. Doing it unwordlessly would have taken too long.

"BUBSYYYYY!" he screamed off in the distance. He was distant now. Like a thing rapidly getting far away.

"...well I guess this is the part where we follow him there," said Rouge after silence. She didn't want to miss the dramatic confrontation. No one did. Everyone got up and went off to see this happen.

Bubsy was there somewhere where he had ran off to. In the middle of the road. Not dead.

He sighed fondly. He loved being alive. "Fondly sighing," he sighed, fondly. "I love being alive! And purrhaps now the market is finally ready for me! MY COMEBACK WILL BEGIN SOON!"

"Like hell it will," said a hedgehog-shaped voice. Sonic's voice. "I absolutely refuse to have to deal with you again after twenty years of you being gone!"

"...Jesus Christ in a recycling bin! It's been twenty years?! Everything must have changed so much... everyone's probably furgotten about me..." Surprise and realization poured off of his face like lighter fluid on a thing that would be on fire if someone threw fire at it. "So many people have nefur heard of me..."

"Yeah, great, whatever," Sonic said dismissively. "Can you just die again already?"

"If everything's so different now... THEN NOW IS THE PURRFECT TIME! A NEW WORLD! A NEW AUDIENCE! A NEW OPPURRTUNITY-"

"TO DIE, BITCH!" screamed an edgier hedgehog voice who had suddenly happened, immediately followed by a gun noise and also Bubsy falling over all corpsishly.

Bubsy was dead once more. Everyone was relieved that this was over.

Shadow was annoyed though. "Hmph, now I have to remove all this flesh and-"

"No," said Sonic very bluntly and forcefully or something along the lines of that. "No more skeletons, no more necromancy-"

Shadow pfffed at this. "Necrodancy."

"I don't care what it's called, just don't fucking do it."

Rouge then went over and grabbed Bubsy's corpse so it could be returnified to the graveyard. She sighed. "Imagine how much we'll have to bribe people to get these buried again without getting arrested."

And so they all started walking home to get the rest of the skeletons needed to bury.

"Wait a fuckin' minute," began Tails as he realized something. "Kinda seems like this was like, resolved pretty quick. Didn't he just come back when this happened befo-"

"Everyone!" yelled the sudden voice of Blaze who had suddenly arrived, her voice dripping with urgency and her hand dripping with a phone. Metaphorically. It was a metaphor. The phone wasn't melting. "There is a Snorlax right down the street from here! Hurry, it will disappear if you don't get it quickly!"

"Oh shit, really?" Tails said as he pulled out his phone and immediately forgot what he was saying.

And so, everyone took out their phones and dropped the corpse and ran off to catch the Snorlax. Bubsy's corpse was just laying there. All forgotten. And dead.

Briefly dead at least.

"Sad sigh..." Bubsy sighed sadly as he stopped being dead, "always furgotten." He stood up dramatically. "But that will change! Now is the time to reach my full pawtential! LOOK OUT, WORLD! BUBSY'S GONNA HAVE A COMEBACK!"
