Chapter Four

Hi, hi, hi! Sorry for the wait everyone. I'm slow I know. But I needed a break from this and if anyone's read Organization 13 Data Files then thats where most of my time and energy went. Sorry. xxSTORMxx I'll try and make this a bit longer. Keyword, try. I'm running out of material for this. Anyways, like Rush said, the kid gloves are officially off. Also, there may be a threequel that matches the orginal's story line, but that depends on how I feel once the Data Files are done. The results of my Oh Baby? OC poll are in. Sadly only one person voted...and that was for Kira. Whoever you are thanks for voting! Anywho, on with the chapter! XD

Rush's POV

I woke up bright and early the next morning. I glanced at the clock and grinned, six A.M.. I sucked in a deep breath before screaming at the top of my lungs. Scourge fell out of bed and onto the floor.

"What's going on?! Are we under attack sarge?!" I snickered as he stumbled around the still dark room in search of the light switch. The lights clicked on and he glared in my direction until I gave a cute and innocent pout. He sighed. "Jeez kiddo. You almost gave me a heart attack." He picked me up and yawned. "What's the matter? Gotta go potty?" I glared at him. Stupid potty training. I forced a smile and nodded. I was gonna lose whatever was left of my dignity by the time this was over. He smiled back and carried me over to the bathroom. He sat me on the chair before turning and filling the tub with warm water and bubble bath. While he was preoccupied, I decided to make my escape. I was out of the bathroom before he even noticed. "Oh come on Rush!" he yelled as he sprinted out of the bathroom, pull-up and pajama pants in hand. I had to find my sledgehammer. Or at the very least some throwing stars Espio gave me for my birthday last year. I dove under the bed, grabbing the pouch that the stars were in and grinned.

"SCOURGIE!" I yelled, drawing his attention.

"Rush! There you are! Don't-HOLY CHAOS!" I chucked six stars at him, one just barely missing his arm and burrowing into the wall, the other five hitting the door. Damn. My aim was still bad at this age. "Come on Rush! You need to take a bath!"

"NO!" I yelled, picking up my replica AK-47 BB gun and firing. Scourge ducked and ran away, bulletholes all over the walls and doors. I was stocked so I was ready to go all day if I had to. Like I said, the kid gloves are off.

Ashura's POV

I ended up spending the night at Kira's place. She was a little upset with me for leaving Rush in Scourge's care but I assured her things would be fine. She and Shadow were currently engaged in another game of checkers. Shadow was currently winning, again, and Kira looked like she might just flip the board over and go sulk for a bit when her phone rang. She sighed and answered it.

"Make it fast green faker. I'm busy." she grumbled. She yanked the phone away from her ear and I could hear Scourge yelling at her. "Hey! Slow the hell down! Rush is doing what now?!" I could hear gunfire from the other end and quickly grabbed the phone.

"Scourge! What is going on?!"

"RUSH HAS AN AK-47 AND IS FIRING IT AT ME!" he screamed. "I NEED HELP NOW!" I smirked.

"You said you didn't need my help. You said you could take care of Rush by yourself." I said, chuckling when he started crying a bit and pleading with me.

"I TAKE IT BACK ASHURA! I TAKE IT ALL BACK! I CAN'T TAKE CARE OF HIM ALONE! I NEED HELP PLEASE! HE'S GONNA KILL ME IN HERE!" I laughed to myself.

"Alright, I'll be there with back up in a little while. Just keep him busy until then." I got a swarm of thank you's before hanging up.

"The hell is going on over there?" Kira asked. She had indeed given up on checkers as Shadow sat with a smug grin. "This so isn't over..."

"Oh just the usual. Rush found his AK-47 and is trying to kill people. Namely Scourge." Kira sighed.

"Alright, I'm getting the vests." she said as she walked into her room.

"Vests?" Shadow asked.

"Bulletproof vests. While they are just BB guns he has several knives and shuriken on hand as well and he does know how to use them." I said.

"And even if we do manage to disarm him, which may be hard because he's so small now, his teeth and claws are registered as lethal weapons so the kevlar in the vests keeps him from biting us and trying to de-spine us." Kira said as she returned with the vests and three sets of gloves. "We have to make a stop at Tails' lab first. I think Scourge and Rush both are about done with this whole thing and I know he's gonna kill you when he goes back to normal." I sweatdropped, I was hoping to put that off for a little longer...In anycase, we retrieved the antidote from Tails and headed over to the apartment. When we got there, the place was trashed. Scourge was hiding behind the couch and Rush was firing all manner of weapons from his room.

"Thank Chaos! I'm saved!" Scourge yelled.

"Not yet you aren't!" Kira yelled, socking him in the face. "First apologize to Ashura. And make it good or so help me I'll blast your ass." He gulped before kneeling at my feet and begging me to forgive him for being an idiot.

"Yeah, yeah. You're forgiven." I said. I shook him off my leg and picked up Rush. He glared at me and sunk his teeth into my vest covered shoulder. "I'm sorry I left you here like that Rush." He just glared at me. "How about I take you for some sherbet later?" That got his attention and he hugged me. Kira gave him the antidote and he kicked me.

"While I'm happy we're getting sherbet, YOU SUCK FOR LEAVING ME HERE!" he yelled.

"I deserve that."

"And you," he said turning to Scourge. "You need to lighten up. I do want kids. I'm serious about that. But, you need to accept other people's help sometimes. Chaos forbid I ever perminently get stuck like that again, what if Ashura and Kira weren't here? What then? You can't just go about these things half-assed like you usually do. Kids are no joke. I mean look how I turned out." He kissed him and my heart broke a little. I accepted the fact that he loved Scourge but that didn't mean it didn't still hurt. "You'll be a great dad, I know it." Scourge smiled a bit. "Just try and lighten up." I'd be lying if I said that Rush left it at that and things were normal. After his very moving speech, he proceded to kick the crap out of both me and Scourge. We're still in the hospital. But that's Rush for you. And I think both Scourge and I can agree when I say we wouldn't want him any other way.

The End

Gah! *sulks in a corner* I hate this ending but my well has run dry for this particular fic and I'm on a KH kick right now. I'm super sorry TT-TT! ...now that my incident of self loathing is over, I really may write a third sequel with a different character that's closer to the original storyline but it'll have to wait until my KH fic, Organization 13 Data Files is done and the other KH fic, Hikari to Yami (Light and Dark[ness] for those who don't speak japanese) is posted. Till then, enjoy some of my other fics, and guess to see who's next to be babyfied. Thanks to all the readers, reviewers, favers, followers!* I forgot, I do have a gift for you all. Heres the teaser summary for Oh Baby, Is This The End? "It's been three months since the events of Here We Go Again. Dr. Eggman is back on his scheme to get rid of the Sonic Heroes and he tries once again with his Babyfier Ray except it's not Shadow or Sonic he's after. And if it's not them, then who?" guesses are welcome but won't be answered. Do you know who's next?* ~Kira
