I think this is gonna be the like the last one I'm gonna post until Mis-terms are over so you have to wait and deal with the suspense! Muahahahahahahaha! I'm so evil.

Shadow: Oo'

Me: Shut up.

Disclaimer: I do not own anyone except Rosey, I own her.

Rosey floated there expecting to get hit but the blow was stopped. She openned her panic-striken eyes and fell too the ground with tiredness. She sat up and looked around and found that the robots were still and that Eggman person is floating in mid-air. A shadow figure looked like he was doing this. His hands were glowing blue, exactly like the aura around the robots and Eggman. The figure closed one of his hands as the robots started exploding. Eggman grimaced at the explosions. "My robots!" He cried. "Who...are you?" He asked the shadowy figure.

"No one you need to know." A male voice rang out. He threw his hand aside as Eggman went flying away.

"Curse you!" He cried as he went outta sight. Rosey sat there on the ground with confusion and...mostly confusion. The shadowy figure went out from the shadows to reveal a white hedgehog. He helped Rosey up as she brushed the dirt off her clothes.

"Umm...Thank you for recusing me." She stammered. He smiled at her. "If you dont mind my asking, who are you?" she asked.

"I'm a time traveler." He replied. Rosey couldn't help but giggle, he looked at her with confusion. "What's so funny?"

"Oh, it's nothing. When I asked, I meant your name." She said stopping her giggling but still had that warming smile.

"You'll learn my name soon enough." He said before he ran off into the depths of the forest. Rosey stood there, dumbfounded. Shadow finally emerged from the cave holding a green Chaos Emerald in his hands.

"What are you looking at?" He said surprising Rosey making her jump.

"Oh, oh. Nothing, nothing at all." She stammered. Shadow looked at her then put the Chaos Emerald away.

"Hey, I found something of yours when we were at the crash site." He said taking out a dark bow.

"Whoa, that is cool. What is it?" She asked. Shadow looked alittle surpirsed.

"It's a bow." He said tossing it to her. Rosey grabbed the bow and looked at it.

"If it's a bow, then where are the arrows?" She asked. Shadow shrugged. Rosey held the bow upright and pulled the string back, a dark energy arrow was automatically formed. She looked at the bow in surpirsed and let it go at the tree. It sliced through the trunk like a knife through butter. "I think I found the ammunition." She said.

"Damn." He sighed. "We should be getting a move on. It's gonna get dark soon." he said looking at the sky.

"Dark? But it's just noon." She said as Thunder roared acrossed the sky. "Oh, you mean...a Storm." She said looking alittle scared. Rain started pouring as Shadow and Rosey ran into the cave.

"We're gonna have to wait here until the rain stops. It's going to be too wet and hard to see in this weather," He said as thundered roared and lighting flashed acrossed the sky. Rosey grimaced and hugged her legs. Shadow turned away from the dreadful scenery and looked at the shivering Rosey. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"N-n-nothing. I'm j-j-just c-c-cold." She stammered. She looked away from Shadow and into the darkness of the cave. Shadow started a fire to keep both of them warm. Thunder roared again followed by the lightning. Rosey grimaced again hugging her legs harder.

"I don't think your just cold." He said. Rosey looked into the dancing flames.

"Okay, I'm scared of lightning." She muttered.

"Scared?" He said as another roll of thunder and lightning flashed acrossed the sky.

"Okay! I'm terrified!" She cried. Shadow had to laugh at the way Rosey looked. "Oh, be quiet." She said tossing a pebble at him.

"Why are you afraid of Lightning any way?" He asked, putting a halt to his laughter.

"I don't know. I just am. I don't remember anything about my past remember?" She looked at him.

"Sorry, I was just wondering. Since I have nothing to do." He said. Rosey stood up trying to be brave from her lightning phobia, the locket around her neck bounced as she stood up. Shadow looked at the locket then took out the chaos emeralds. "Rosey, keep this for me. It'll be safer with you." He said tossing her the green emerald. Rosey caught the green emerald then looked at Shadow in confusion.

"Why? I thought you needed these?" Rosey asked. She remember how Shadow acted when the emerald bonded with her locket the first time she figured out how to use it.

"They'll be trouble to carry around. Anyway, if anyone tries to take away my emeralds then they will have to face me, but if anyone manages to take them away. I have my back-ups." He smiling at Rosey.

"So you trust me?" She said.

"I trust you."

"How can you trust me? We've only known each other for 2 days"

"I have a feeling I can trust you." Shadow said smiling at her still. Rosey blushed alittle.

"Rosey confused." She said feeling the blood reaching to her face.

"Heh, I don't usually do this so don't you go around mentioning this to anyone. Okay?" Shadow advised.

"Okay. I promise." She said, returning the smile. Shadow stood up and brushed aside a bang that has fallen in front of her face as he grabbed her hand with his other hand. Rosey blushed again but this time redder. Shadow then did something he has never done before (At least...I think so), he kissed Rosey on the cheek. Rosey, eyes wide with surprise, moved back alittle. It took awhile for her to let it all sink in, she took her hand and softy touched the place where Shadow had kissed her. She pulled it back and smiled a heart-warming smile that made Shadow blush (Alittle).

"Never mention that to anyone either." he said. Rosey giggled stepping forward kissing him on the cheek.

"I won't." She said "It'll be a serect." She said. Suddenly, a roll of thunder and lightning roared acrossed the sky as the rain fell harder. Rosey jumped and clung onto Shadow. Shadow blushed when rosey hugged him. Rosey, on the other hand, was frightened of this storm and wouldn't let go.

"Rosey, you can let go now." Shadow tried to say. Rosey shook her head. "I need to breath once in awhile you know." Rosey slowly pulled back, looking so innocent. "Listen, what if you slept close to me? I'll protect you from...whatever it is your afraid of." He said., "Okay?"

Whatever your afraid of, I'll protect you.

"Huh?" Rosey gasped.

It's just lightning, It's nothing to be afraid of.

"What's happening?" She said. She stood there as her pupils started fading. Shadow sat by the fire, he guess that she was panicking so he will leave her be.

Rosey, don't be afraid. Geez, it's gonna be alright.
