Saturday Morning:
Shadow was still extremely pissed when he woke up the next morning. Not only had a 100,000 dollar car been ruined, his girlfriend had also broken up with him, all within a five minute period of time. "At least my car can be repainted at the repair shop," Shadow thought to himself, "but I'm not sure if I can get back together with Amy. From her tone of voice last night, she sounded like she never wanted to speak to me again." Shadow looked sadly at Amy's picture on his bedside table. "Maybe I did care too much about that car. I could have spent a nice quiet evening with Amy, but instead I chose to throw a fit. I am such an idiot."
Shadow was depressed for a good portion of the morning. All he could think about while he was eating breakfast was Amy, now his ex-girlfriend. He realized that he had to win Amy back somehow, but he wasn't sure that she would even give him a chance to apologize. Shadow also was planning his revenge against Silver, since it was his vindictiveness that had caused him this much grief in the first place. He had absolutely no idea that Sonic was behind this mess, that he had told Silver how his laptop had been destroyed.
"That's it!" Shadow suddenly thought to himself. "I know just how to extract revenge! I'm going to make that butthole's computer suffer! Now the question is how to hack into his laptop. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing; Tails probably knows more about computer hacking and viruses than I could even begin to imagine.
Angry and seeking revenge for the damage done to his car, he decides to call Tails up at home. He picks up the phone at the second ring.
"Shadow, this is unexpected! You never call me for anything! How's it been lately?" Tails asked happily over the phone.
Shadow replied, "You have absolutely no idea what just happened to me yesterday."
"This has something to do with Silver and your car, right?" said Tails.
"Yeah," Shadow replied perplexedly, "How did you know?"
"I'm watching a video of you right now on the Internet throwing the biggest fit I've ever seen. It's freaking hilarious!" Tails said happily.
"WHAT?! You mean to tell me that he posted that on the Internet?!" Shadow shouted over the phone.
He said, "Geez, Shadow, calm down, man! I think I know why you called me today."
Shadow replied, "Oh, really? Do you think I called you just to chit-chat?"
He said, "No, I think you want my help to try and take revenge on Silver because he paid two kids to ruin your car."
Shadow was taken completely by surprise. "Tails, how do you know these things?"
At this point, Tails replied, "I'm just gifted; some people think I can read minds, others think that I have psychic powers. But, honestly, I just figured that you were really pissed off at Silver and you wanted to make his life a living nightmare. Come over to my house and I'll help you make Silver suffer."
"Wow, thanks for your help," said Shadow; he was very surprised that Tails would actually give a care about his need for revenge.
"Not a problem," replied Tails, "Meet me at one o'clock, okay?"
"Sure, do I need to bring my laptop?" Shadow asked.
"Nah, that won't be needed," said Tails, "it would take too long to load all of my hacking software onto your computer. See you at one."
Shadow hung up the phone and thought to himself, "I actually thought that Tails was just a geeky nerd, until I need him to hack into someone else's computer. Maybe he is useful for something other than playing World of Warcraft and Runscape all day long."
That Afternoon
Shadow rang the doorbell to Tails' house. He had arrived on time, one o'clock exactly. Tails opened the front door after about fifteen seconds. He looked happy as he ushered Shadow into his computer room, not far from the front door.
Shadow was overwhelmed by the amount of cutting edge technology that Tails could fit into such a small room. The walls of the computer room held several flat-screen monitors, each connected wirelessly to a mini super computer.
"Oh my God, Tails! Where did you get all of this computer crap?" Shadow asked, feeling slightly claustrophobic as he walked carefully over several different power strips.
"It's not crap," Tails said indignantly, "and I got all of these prototype computers from the university. They've asked me to help them design the next generation of computers for commercial use." He remembered the reason why he had invited Shadow to come over and asked, "So, what exactly do I need to do to help you get back at Silver?"
"Well," said Shadow sheepishly, "I was hoping that you could help me with that. I wanted you to screw up his computer to the point of no return."
"It can be done; I just need a few seconds to gain break through his firewall." said Tails as he started entering code.
"Hey, Tails, I just remembered that Silver has a web cam installed onto his laptop. Do you think you could take it over for me? I just needed to tell him something." Shadow asked.
"Sure, but I have to make sure that Silver is using his computer right now." Tails replied.
"Tails, why are you so willing to help me?" Shadow asked.
"Silver owes me 100 dollars from last Christmas. He had to buy Blaze a last minute present and he borrowed the money from me. Since then, he has never paid me back, and now it is time for me to get back my money." Tails said menacingly.
At that moment, Silver was shopping online; he was currently in a bidding war to try and buy the limited edition version of Grand Theft Auto IV. "Come on, you really don't want to buy that game, do you?" Silver was talking to the computer screen as he was about to spend over three hundred dollars on a video game. He was about to win the war, with only five seconds remaining to make a bid.
All of a sudden, his laptop started to make strange noises. Right before he could claim his prize, a window popped up on his screen, removing any chance of finishing his bid. He saw that it was a live video feed of Shadow and Tails; they had taken over his web cam!
"Hi, Silver, remember me?" Shadow said with a dark tone in his voice.
"Shadow?" said Silver confusedly, "What in God's name are you doing on my web cam?"
"I'm just calling to remind you that not only are you going to pay for my car to get repainted, you're also going to pay back any money you owe Tails." Shadow said flatly.
"Tails, I don't owe you any money! I already paid you back!" Silver said over the webcam.
"No, you didn't; I'm missing 100 dollars, and now I want it back." Tails said flatly.
"Tails, stop lying," said Silver angrily.
"I'm not lying!" Tails protested.
"Don't backtalk me, Tails!" Silver yelled over the microphone.
"Okay, I won't backtalk you. I'll just send you a couple of viruses."
"DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!" Silver shouted.
It was too late; the destruction to Silver's laptop's mainframe was too severe. Tails had designed viruses that were literally causing Silver's laptop to short circuit. With smoke starting to come out of the laptop, Silver cried, "NO!! NOT THIS AGAIN!!" at the top of his lungs.
Feeling vindicated, Shadow thanked Tails for all of his hard work. He left Tails' house, already making plans to try and win Amy all over again.
