Chapter 20

A/N: FINALS ARE HISTORY! Yay! I was so happy about it I ended up playing League of Legends all the day after work (Yeah, I work on vacation, lame, but it gives me money :P) Aaanyway, I decided I should update my story since it has been a while since I updated (Not mentioning one of my friends seems really desperate.) and so on.

Okay, lets go on with the story!

Chapter 20: Train of Thoughts

Sonic and Tails had finally arrived their home. It had been an exhaustive chase after Sonic, but they managed to return her to normal.

"Who would have guessed? Once you turned into a male the effects of the taser wear off, so it doesn't matters if you turn into a female again. I guess I don't have to worry much about getting splashed with water." Tails explained.

"Yeah, but its still embarrassing for me to wear this..." Sonic said. Yeah, she was still wearing the pink leotard. Tails and the group only managed to splash him with hot water and cold water so fast that people didn't managed to see her as a male (for the luck of everyone in the area.), but she was cured.

"Meh, don't sweat it. It's not like you won't have to use one again."

"Tails!"

"Why are you even embarrassed? You are a girl right now so people don't care about it. At least the ones that don't know you are actually Sonic the Hedgehog."

"That's what worries me." Sonic opened the door, leading herself and Tails inside.

"Don't worry, Syra has kinda the same problem, and me too. So we should be able to understand ourselves." He explained sitting on the couch.

"Yeah... let me get rid of this first." She went to the bathroom to get rid of her clothes. Sometime later, the male Sonic got out of the bathroom.

"Ah, nice to be normal again." He said flexing his arms.

"Hey Sonic, remember that tomorrow your sister is coming." Tails reminded him.

"Sonia? Aww man..." Sonic sat depressed in his couch.

"What's the matter Sonic? Aren't you excited?"

"I would if I didn't had this curse!"

"C'mon! It's your sister! She will understand..."

"Ok, you are telling me to tell my 15 year old sister that her brother isn't only her brother, but also her sister, that she uses girl clothes AND that she fell in love with Shadow the hedgehog. Not mentioning that she thinks her brother is the brave and skilled hero of the Earth. Yup Tails, that's a great idea!" Sonic said. The sarcasm in his tone was as noticeable as his blue fur.

"Okay, okay! Jeez..." Tails tried to calm Sonic down. "But I still think you should tell her." He said standing up.

"Where are you going?" Sonic asked also standing up.

"I need to make up a place where she can sleep because, you know, she isn't going to sleep on the floor." Tails said going outside. Sonic sat again in the couch.

"Sigh... I would enjoy her visit if it wasn't for this damn curse..." He muttered. Sonic knew it would be hard to hide it from Sonia, but he will do it, no matter what. He wanted her to look at him as an older brother that would always protect her, not as a freak nor a cross-dresser.

(-/-)

Sonic was peacefully sleeping in his bed, his mind in blank. That is, until something woke her up.

"Sarah..." He heard someone talking. He ignored the voice and kept sleeping.

"Sarah..." The voice called again. He tried to ignore it.

"Love, I know you are hearing me so please, can you give me my part of the bed sheets?" The voice sounded familiar.

"Love? What are you..." Sonic then noticed that she was a girl, but something felt wrong. She opened her eyes to see that her bedroom was bigger, although she couldn't detect more differences because it was very dark. Although the biggest surprise was that she was sleeping in a queen-sized bed... with Shadow. She gazed at him like if he was the devil. He stared back with a confused stare.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Shadow asked.

"What are you doing in my house!?" She demanded. Her voice sounded like the voice of an adult woman, but she tried not to mind that.

Shadow chuckled at the commentary. "Did you drank a beer before going to sleep? This is our house."

"Our house?" Sonic was now more confused than ever.

"Sigh..." Shadow grabbed her hand and showed her a ring that was in one of her fingers. He also had one in his hand.

"We are married, don't you remember?"

Those words made Sonic jump out of the bed in pure shock. She backed away from the bed slowly.

"Sarah, what's gotten into you?" He asked, also standing up.

"Don't get near me!" She shrieked. Their scene was interrupted when someone opened the door. It was a little red hedgehog with black stripes wearing a pink footie pajamas.

"Daddy, What's happening? Why mommy acts so strange?" She said.

"M-mo-mo-m" Sonic couldn't even finish the word.

"Oh come on! Don't tell me you don't remember your own daughter." Shadow seemed annoyed.

In a moment of confusion, desperation, insanity, and more confusion, Sonic ran to the bathroom.

"Sarah! Where are you going?" Shadow went behind her.

"Mommy!" The little hedgehog also followed

Sonic entered the bathroom and locked the door. She grabbed a bucket that was in the corner and turned on the hot water, filling the bucket with it. After it was full, Sonic drenched herself with it.

To her surprise, nothing had happened. She was still a girl.

"Wha... What!? But how? Why?" Sonic wondered desperately. What happened? Why did she couldn't return o normal? She wouldn't know that because the door opened. Shadow was holding a key in his hand.

"C'mon Sarah, let's go to sleep." He approached her. "Maybe tomorrow you will remember."

"Leave me alone!" She yelled, backing away from him.

"Wait, look out!" Shadow pointed at something behind her. When she turned around, she saw nothing.

Shadow smirked. He leaped over her and gave her a long kiss.

Sonic was shocked, she wanted to pull out of it with all of her might, but she felt drained, but at the same time, she felt peace.

"No... this can't... be happening..." She thought as she slowly went unconscious.

(-/-)

Sonic opened his eyes. He was still in his bedroom.

"Phew! Just a nightmare..." His voice sounded strange. When Sonic looked at his fur he noticed that it was red.

"Wha... What? I swear I went to sleep as a male." She said.

She was about to stand up and go to the bathroom to drench herself in hot water, but she felt comfortable and tired.

"Well, it's not like I'm going to stay like this forever, right?" She said going back to sleep.

Offpanel: The Chase Part 1

"Follow that hedgehog!" Ralik yelled, leading the group outside Amy's house.

Meanwhile, Sarah was giggling happily dragging Shadow with her. Weren't by Shadow's hover shoes, he would be eating dirt by now as there was nothing that could keep up with her speed. And this was noticeable as she easily outran her pursuers. She stopped behind a tree.

"Sarah, what's wrong with you?" Shadow asked, demanding an explanation.

Sarah looked at him and giggled cheerily.

"The thing is..." She got close to him. "...that I love you." She hugged him.

Shadow couldn't believe what he was hearing. Did she actually loved him? Then this was the greatest thing that had happened to him in all of this days.

Sarah stared at his red eyes, and Shadow stared at her blue eyes. Their heads got closer, and then... They both received a kick to their foreheads.

"Shadow!" Syra said, he was still a male. "Sarah is not herself right now, she..."

Before he could explain though, Sarah spin-dashed her in the back, and due to her spikes being longer, she ripped part of his shirt and sent her to a tree.

"Why did you do that!?" Sarah said annoyed. "I was just about to get a kiss from him!"

Syra chuckled a little at what she said.

"Sarah!" The rest of the gang had arrived at the scene.

"Sigh... Are you going to leave me alone?" Sarah groaned.

"Nope." Ralik said. In that moment, everyone tried to catch her.

Ralik leaped at her, but she crouched. The odd thing was that she didn't crouched normally, she opened her legs so wide that she went down. Ralik looked at this and felt a slight pain in both of his legs.

Sarah just stood up normally, like if she had done rhythm gymnastics before.

Amy tried to hit her with her hammer. But Sarah dodged this with ease and kicked her in the stomach, making her groan in pain and clutch her chest.

Syra and Fioso tried at the same time, but Sarah leaped out of the way. Making them crash their heads with themselves. Sarah did two front flips and landed gracefully.

"Where the hell did she learned all of that?" Ralik asked. "It was like if she had done rhythm gymnastics before."

"And that leotard is just letting her do it much better." Amy said "And I gotta admit she looks cool doing all of that, if she wasn't doing it to kick our butts."

Sarah grabbed Shadow. "Come on! We still have lots of things to do!" She said cheerily and ran with him in a tow.

"Darn it! Why did she had to be the fastest thing alive?" Fioso said, running after him. The others followed him in their mission: Preventing Sonic from doing something that would surely leave him scarred for the rest of his life.

Well, finally! I hadn't had time to do this chapter because I have to work on the afternoons and I'm trying to get in a team for League of Legends North Latin America Tournament, so I can't update too fast, :(

Anyway, Sonic has gotten one hell of a nightmare and still decided to sleep as a girl a day before her sister came to her house. What will happen that day?

Meanwhile, we are seeing that Sarah is just trying to have a moment with Shadow in the offpanel. Which is, by the way, a fragment of the story that I skipped.

Will the gang be able to catch Sarah? Will she do something that may leave her scarred for the rest of her life? And what would happen if the gang never catch Sarah? All of this will be answered, but not right now.

See ya later, folks!
