Sonic the hedgehog presents: Maria Robotnik's return.
(Note: I will feature more chapters of Universe Mix-up once I finish up this story and Invader buster club)
Chapter 3 Smoothie prank.
"I'll have a chocolate smoothie" Vector told the smoothie operator as the gang sat down to enjoy their smoothies, Shadow just kept staring Maria and wondered how she could fight like that. She always hated violence but there were times she needed to defend herself and Shadow taught her how to when she was still a human.
"Are you okay Shadow?" Amy asked him.
"Yeah I'm okay" Shadow replied as he showed a smile, Amy was still uneasy with him smiling.
"Why are you still smiling Mr. Shadow?" Charmy asked his role model.
"You never smile" Espio said.
"I'm just happy that Maria is alive" Shadow "I just want to enjoy my day without any interruptions"
"Well look at what we have here!" A voice said, the gang turned around to see Shade the enchidna with Marine.
"Hey Shade" Espio greeted his friend/Crush.
"Hey Shadow who's this?" Marine asked him as she pointed at the unfamiliar hedgehog.
"That's Maria" Shadow replied, Marine and Shade gasped.
"You mean the girl that was dead for 50 years?" She asked.
"I wasn't dead I was in a pod" Maria replied.
"It's a long story" Shadow said as he put his arm around Maria, Marine giggled at the sight.
"What so funny?" He asked.
"Is she your Girlfriend?" Marine asked.
"What? NO! We're just friends" Shadow replied.
"Yeah we're just friends" Maria agreed with him.
"Whatever you say!" Shade said.
"Well lookie at what we have here!" Another voice said, Shadow and Sonic groaned.
"Hello Scourge" Sonic said.
"What do you want this time?" Shadow groaned.
"Just came to get a smoothie and go back to crisis city" Scourge replied as he eyed Maria "And probably bring a fine lady back with me".
"I'm warning you Scourge if you value arms and legs and possibly your skull" Shadow said "You will stay away from Maria!"
"Sheesh Shadow I'm kidding!" Scourge said as he nervously backed away.
"Shadow why did you talk to him like that?" Maria asked him.
"I'm just trying to protect you" Shadow replied "Scourge isn't exactly the friendliest gut around".
"Neither are you!" Knuckles joked as Rouge giggled.
"I heard that!" Shadow said, Sonic whispered something in Tails ear and he walked over to Shadow's and Maria's table with a smoothie.
"Hey Shadow I brought you a smoothie" Sonic said as he handed him the smoothie "It's on me".
"Thanks faker" Shadow said "You want some Maria?"
"Oh no thank I've had enough smoothies thank you" She replied, Shadow took a drink of the smoothie and he started to sweat and his whole mouth was on fire.
"Sonic…What… Was… In… That….Smoothie?!" Shadow said as he gasped and tried to look for water.
"Oh just some strawberries, Banana's and hot sauce!" Sonic said as he, Tails, Amy and Gemerl started to laugh, Shadow finally found some water and began to guzzle it down. He then turned to face Sonic and walked over to him with a fork.
"DIE SONIC!" He yelled as he tried to poke/stab the hedgehog, Sonic ran out of the store with Shadow chasing after him. Maria just stared opened mouth at what he was going to do, Luckily Sonic pinned Shadow down outside and threw the fork and the two began to hit each other.
"They're at it again" Knuckles said as he grinned.
"I don't get it, why are they always fighting?" Maria asked Amy.
"Long story" Amy replied and shrugged, Maria just shook her head.
Later on the ARK…
"Why were you trying to stab Sonic?" Maria asked as she and Shadow walked through the ARK corridors to their rooms.
"The faker put hot sauce in that smoothie" Shadow replied "Not to mention he put toothpaste in my rocket shoes, Filled my cereal with Fish slices and… You know what? He's always pulling pranks on me!"
"Shadow it doesn't matter if he was trying to prank you, he was just trying to have fun" Maria said "And I have a question".
"What is it?" He asked.
"Who's Egg man?" She asked, Shadow just looked at her nervously.
"He's your younger cousin Ivo Robotnik" Shadow replied "He's constantly trying to conquer Mobius".
"Why would he do that?" Maria asked.
"He's trying to make a place called Egg man land" Shadow said, Maria giggled at the response.
"Tomorrow you can come to Mobius middle school/High school" Shadow said.
"I'm sure I'll enjoy coming to the school" Maria said "Can you show me around Mobius after school?"
"Yeah sure" Shadow replied, Shadow opened the door to Maria's room and both were surprised to see that Sonic and the other had cleaned it up for her.
"Good night Maria" Shadow said.
"Good night Shadow" Maria replied as he closed the door, Shadow Smiled as he walked back to his room and he kept thinking about Maria.
"Hope she has a good new life here on Mobius" He thought to himself.
Chapter 4 coming soon.
