November 14th, 11am

Starr was uneasy this day, for it was the day before her seizures would happen. But last month Tails said that he would try to amplify the drug by making last twenty-four hours. She tapped her foot during class, so uneasy and hoping that Tails had done it. She felt he phone vibrating during English class, she subtly pulled it out and saw that it was a text message from Shadow, who was on the other side of the room. It read: it's going to be okay. She looked over to Shadow and lipped thank you.

After school finally came and Starr made a beeline to Tails' locker. She saw him there, gathering his books in his backpack.

"Tails," she said when she got there. "Please tell me that you perfected it."

"Let's go somewhere more private," Tails said. He offered his hand and she grabbed it, he then took her outside. "Okay Starr, I've amplified the drug so it can be taken once and you won't have to worry about having them all day. You can go to school tomorrow. However, I've done research and this has to be taken during an actual seizure. Also, whatever Doom Mist does during your attacks, if he leaves your body, he has to return if he leaves so you'll be having at least two attacks a day."

"I'll take two over twenty-four any day!"

"And it has to be given through an IV. You'll have to be stuck before the first attack. I have a pack of needles here, along with the tube for the drug to travel through. Here." Tails gave Starr the supplies.

"Thank you Tails. You're such a good friend."

"I do my best," he winked.

11pm

Shadow as at Starr's house getting ready to put the IV needle in her arm. During his free period, he went to the library and did research on IVs. The moment finally came. Shadow prepared the area: he sterilized the equipment and Starr's arm where he was going to put the needle. He had the needle in one hand and Starr's arm in the other. He felt her trembling, scared to get a needle (who isn't?)

"I'm so scared," she said, a tear rolled down her eye.

"I haven't even done anything," Shadow said trying to lift her spirits. "I'll be as gentle as possible." He found a vein and advanced the needle. Starr squeezed her free hand into a fist, trying to fight the pain; finally, Shadow got the needle in her arm. Starr breathed heavily, still shaking and feeling pain from the needle inside her arm.

"So we just have to wait until midnight then you'll be okay for tomorrow."

Midnight

Starr started to have one of her seizures. Shadow pushed the lorazepam and Starr eventually stopped seizing. She opened her eyes and saw Shadow sitting beside her bed.

"Thank you Shadow," she whispered before drifting off to sleep. Shadow went to her living room and slept on the couch. He was happy to help a friend out. He fell asleep, knowing that Starr was going to be alright.

MEANWHILE...

Scrouge was sleeping in his bed when he had a dream. He was in some weird dimension, made up of purple and black spots. He was walking on what didn't look like the ground, but still he thought. Then appeared a dark hedgehog in a black hood. It almost looked like him, but different in a way.

"Scrouge the Hedgehog," the mysterious hedgehog said. "You are the chosen one for me. You are to be my host when the time comes. A long time ago I was banished inside the soul of a hedgehog princess. In a few months, I am to come out and destroy the world. However, when I finally leave my vessel, my true powers will still be inside her. I'll need a new host, and you possess powers that you'll be able to control. You and I shall join together and destroy the dynasty of Starr's family! Nothing will stop us when we join! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Scrouge woke up wondering what he just dreamt of, was it true or was it a crazy dream?

I know that this chapter is short, I just thought it'd be good to put it out because it's relevant. Next chapter coming soon. (Ho ho ho...) Picture coming for this story soon too (I'm hoping that you would like a visual of Starr. When I do upload it, let me know how she looks!) Love the reviews everyone!
