It's a Friday morning. The sun never came out to say hello. Everyone at school wasn't in their best mood. Sonic, Amy, Tails, Cream, Knuckles, and Tikal all walked to school that day. They all were in a good mood. It was Friday, but the weather didn't make it feel like a Friday.

"Come on, fight back!" Yelled a boy.

"That sounds like that girl again." Tikal said looking at Knuckles.

"Jasmine." Cream whispered.

The group of friends slowly walked toward the voice. They saw Cream's old bully, picking on a new victim. Jasmine didn't do anything about the bully. She was crying. The bully knocked down the books that were in her hands and they fell on the floor. He stepped on them and yelled at Jasmine again.

"Leave her alone!" Cream yelled. "You're a sick person!"

"Yea! No one even likes you!" Amy yelled.

"Mind your own business!" The boy yelled.

Everyone rolled their eyes. The bully turned back to Jasmine. But, she wasn't there. Instead, Shadow was standing there. Shadow had so much anger in his eyes. His hands turned into firsts and he was breathing hard.

"Try again! I dare you!" Shadow yelled.

"S-S-Sorry!"

The boy ran away and went into the school. Shadow moved out of the way. Jasmine was right behind him. Jasmine picked up her books and thanked Shadow. Shadow and Jasmine walked over to the group of friends.

"Don't worry... It will get better! There's always-" Tails began.

"Light, we know." Sonic said nudging Tails' arm.

"No, life sucks! My dad got killed!" Jasmine said.

Before anyone could respond, the bell rang. The group of friends walked inside the school. Even though Jasmine was surrounded by people, random people would trip her and call her names. They called her powerless, broken pieces, worthless. Shadow, already raged with anger now couldn't stand this anymore. The other elements (expect for Silver) saw this. They needed to calm Shadow down.

"Shadow, why don't you get to class, we'll walk Jasmine." Amy said holding Jasmine's arm.

"I'll walk with you." Knuckles said.

Knuckles and Shadow left the group of friends. Jasmine looked confused at Amy.

"Why are you being so nice to me?" Jasmine asked.

"Because nice people need a nice life." Amy said with a smile.

Jasmine grinned at Amy. Cream took Jasmine's other arm and they walked the hall. Tikal walked backwards in front of them and talked. She was skilled at walking backwards too. Sonic and Tails stopped and turned around. They left the girls alone, so they all could bond with each other.

"Why don't you go walk around after school with Jasmine?" Knuckles asked Shadow.

"I guess that would be nice..." Shadow said.

Knuckles and Shadow made it to their class. Jasmine was a little better today. She was glad that she was making new friends. Soon, it was lunch time again. Silver and Blaze weren't with them at all. Jasmine sat next to Shadow.

"Hey Jasmine, do you want to go on a walk with me after school?" Shadow asked.

"Sure! That would be nice."

Shadow looked at Tails. Tails winked at Shadow. The friends talked and ate lunch. The girls started to talk about different things, while the guys listen. All the elements would miss these girls.

"Hey, where was that other white hedgehog?" Tikal asked.

"We don't know... He'll show up soon, though." Sonic said.

After lunch everyone went back to their classes. After period 8 ended, the bell rang. Everyone rushed out of school, trying to get home. Sonic and Amy went over to Amy's house. Tails and Cream went to the park. Knuckles and Tikal went to see the Master Emerald. Shadow and Jasmine stayed at school, still everyone left. It was pretty quite between them though. But, Jasmine did all the talking. She talked about her dad.

"We'll find the killer." Shadow said. "Come on, let's go on that walk."

Shadow and Jasmine left the school. They went out to dinner too. It was about 6pm when they ate out. Shadow and Jasmine talked about their life. But Shadow never told Jasmine that he was an element. After dinner, the two friends went out for a walk in the streets.

"Where you really close to your dad?" Shadow asked.

"Yea. He was the only one I could trust."

"You have me."

"Yea, and I'm thankful for that. I wouldn't know what to do without you."

Shadow and Jasmine took a turn into an ally way. They stopped at the end.

"Wrong way." Jasmine laughed as she turned around. "S-S-Shadow..." Jasmine said tapping Shadow's arm.

"What?" Shadow asked turning around. "Oh."

There was a person dressed all in black standing in front of them. The person walked closer and closer to them. Shadow stood in front of Jasmine and put his fists up. The person and Shadow started to fight each other.

"Run, Jasmine!" Shadow yelled.

Jasmine ran away from the fight. She stopped running once she was out of the all way. She watched Shadow and the person fight each other. Jasmine hugged herself, hoping Shadow would win this fight.

The person hit Shadow in the face. Shadow yelled and the person kneed Shadow in the stomach. Shadow fell down, holding his stomach.

"Say goodbye." The person said.

But before the person could do anything, Jasmine picks up a near by crowbar and hits the person on the head. Their head cracks opened and blood pours out. The person fell down on his back and Jasmine dropped the crowbar and ran over to Shadow.

"Are you ok!?" Jasmine asked.

"The question is, are you?" Shadow said putting his head up.

Jasmine nodded and moved her hair out of her face. Shadow was on all fours. He stood back up and looked at the dead body.

"Danger..." Shadow said. "I love it!"

"It felt good!"

Shadow walked over to the dead body. He removed the black hoody. Jasmine knew that face... She knew that person. It was her father's killer... She just killed someone who should have been killed a long time ago. Jasmine started to cry and flap her hands.

"I did it!" Jasmine said hugging Shadow.

"Now your father can rest in peace."

"It's all thanks to you!"

"You're the one who hit him on the head." Shadow said as they walked away laughing.

Shadow walked Jasmine home. She didn't want to go back home, because of her mother. Shadow had an idea now. He kicked the door opened and her mother screamed from the living room. Shadow marched right up Jasmine's mother. He grabbed her the collar of her shirt and lifted her up.

"You better treat Jasmine with respect! If not... Bad things will happen to you!" Shadow said.

Jasmine's mother nodded. Jasmine walked over to Shadow and he set her down. Jasmine hugged Shadow and he soon left. Jasmine's mother did respect Jasmine now. She didn't want to have to see Shadow again or have bad things happen to her.

It's now Monday morning. Everyone heard on the News about the killer. Shadow and Jasmine walked to school that day together. They both were wearing black and red. They didn't have a smile on their faces. Once they reached the school, everyone was scared of them. They didn't call Jasmine any names or bully her anymore.

"You look hot in leather!" Cream said walking up to Jasmine.

"Really? I thought I would look weird!" Jasmine laughed.

A person starred at Jasmine. Jasmine's smile went away and she glared at the person.

"I'm glad everything is fine now." Cream said.

"Me too... I still can't believe I killed a person."

"A person who should have been killed earlier." Shadow said walking over to the two girls.

"I'll see you later." Cream said walking away.

Shadow leaned on a locker and crossed his arms. Jasmine pulled out some books and put them in her backpack.

"I'm leaving soon." Shadow said without any emotions.

"W-What! Not you!"

"What do you mean? Are other people leaving too?"

"You, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles! Where are you guys going?"

"Back home."

"Why'd you even come here?"

"I wish I could tell you. But I can't tell you."

Jasmine looked down and sighed. She didn't want Shadow to leave. Because of him, she grew so much. Because of Shadow she could rule the world.

"Will I ever see you again?" Jasmine asked?

"Of coarse! We're destine to have each other in our lives!"

Jasmine smiled and hugged Shadow. A tear fell down her cheek. Shadow rubbed her back. They pulled apart and Jasmine shut her locker. Just then, Blaze walked past them with drawings. Shadow looked at Blaze as she walked past.

"You know, Jasmine... Since I'll be gone you might as well find someone to replace me." Shadow said.

"But I don't want to replace you."

"Then, replace me with a friend that's a girl... Like Blaze."

"Blaze? But she's-"

"Nice." Shadow said. "This is part of danger... You don't know what you're heading into."

Shadow winked at Jasmine and left once the bell rang. Jasmine put on her backpack and walked to her class. Shadow was one of her closest friends. Shadow was right. Maybe Blaze could bring new things to Jasmine. Danger. Danger is danger. You don't know what or who you're going to meet. Danger could make your life even more dangerous. That's why she loves it.
