This is it.
This is a whole new step of his life..

The awe-struck ebony hedgehog gazed at the large, luxurious and elegant building with his mouth open agape then blinked as he took few steps forward. Lucas knew there was no chance of going back and hide under the boulder...Lucas had to force himself to get out of the shadows and take a risk for himself. The train of his thoughts stopped abruptly as he felt a gentle bump on the back of head and the hedgehog blinked confused. Lucas turned his head to look at the father that was suffering from the jet lag and was not in the mood to bicker with his son. Lucas knew that as he looked at the annoyed, exhausted and cranky hedgehog that was burning a pair of holes in the back of the younger hedgehog's. The mother merely rolled her eyes, patting lightly on the upper back of her husband to at least try to comfort the cranky older hedgehog but the husband just muttered at the son quietly. His voice however did not waver or had a harsh tone in it. When he had that tone, it obviously meant one thing and both of the smaller hedgehogs knew not to pamper with his emotions when the grumpy hedgehog was like this.

"Don't stand there, Lucas. Move."

The fatherly hedgehog said gruffly as he nudged his son once more to get the dazed hedgehog to move and the smaller hedgehog obeyed then took his suitcase to move forward to the door with a small, shaky smile. The parents knew that Lucas was daydreaming of meeting his idol, not particularly paying attention to anything as his father checked in with the mother dragging the son in awe to the large elevator that pulled the mechanical doors apart for the trio with their suitcases. All Lucas could think about was Sonic...Lucas was going to meet Sonic just in a few hours on the set! As if the motherly hedgehog could understand what her son was thinking, she chuckled as the white hedgehog pinched lightly on the arm of the daydreaming hedgehog. "Ouch!" Lucas jumped bit, rubbing his arm and looked at his mother with a frown. "That hurts, mom!" The white hedgehog just smiled sweetly as she chuckled and patted lightly on the cheek of the pouting son of hers."But hey! You're not dreaming at all, sweetie but you need to pay attention or you'll trip."The transportation device took the family up to the floor where their master suite awaits for them. It was definitely that there was no chance of turning back to their old life now.

- few hours had passed...-

The father was under the covers with the air condition on, even though it was Autumn...The older hedgehog just snored. He always snored when he was suffering from jet lag with the mother reading a magazine, rubbing her husband's back as she sipped hot tea of green leaves...At least they have separate rooms with sound proof walls...Not that Lucas wasn't happy with that or anything...Honestly whatever his parents does; it stays in that room and Lucas was very okay with it. At least his room had the nice view of the beach...~ The ebony hedgehog sat down on the chair with the script on the table that was on a balcony with the beautiful orange flowers in vase in the middle. Thank goodness that the hotel and trip was already paid or least they would be trapped in a rundown motel because his father was so cheap. Anyways, Lucas better to catch up on the script so he wouldn't be totally lost when he start to practice with Sonic and the rest of the cast...He took the heavy script with the highlight marker to put the yellow shade on the name of his character with the saying in it, making it easier for him as he bit on his lips then memorized the lines but repeats it for when if he messed it up. Lucas didn't want to mess up his first session with the professionals! ...Shadow kinda reminds Lucas awfully a lot like his dad, which might had made it easier for him to figure out as he then took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He had to put himself in this character's shoes...His unusual personality and where he came from a troubled background was tragic.

Totally the opposite of the happy hero.

Heartbreaking.

Sorrowful.

Unthinkable.

...

Lucas then closed his eyes and took a deep breath as he began to try to show what this character felt and to understand his action.

"Chaos! You don't have to shove this flash light up on my face, Amy!" The azure hedgehog grumbled as he slapped the shining object while the pink hedgehog just rolled her eyes and pulled on a peach arm that was connected to the diva in the bed. "Get your sorry blue butt up! Or else, a certain echidna is going to go in here and dump chilly water on you." Amy threatened, huffing as she kept on tugging and the tired hedgehog gave in then grumbled and stood up. "Okay okay! Jeez!" When the pink hedgehog was sure that Sonic won't go back to sleep, she left to get ready to meet this new actor with a roll of her eyes as Sonic stretched lazily then looked at the soft blue painted wall and smirked a mischievous smile.

His plan was set in motion now...

The hedgehog snickered as he went to dress in his usual outfit and adjusted his gloves then opened the fridge to grab the cold leftovers from a dinner party and had it for breakfast with a plastic fork, walking out of his trailer. Sonic just didn't had the time to make breakfast. It takes too forever...Anyways it was time to meet the actor he had heard about so much...~
