Chapter 5: Tour de Mobius

8:30

"Better let him sleep" Maria thought to herself as she saw the sleeping hedgehog "Sonic did prank him again last night".

Last night.

"Hey Shadz!" Sonic said as he walked over to the two hedgehogs that were grabbing their back packs from their lockers.

"What is it faker?" Shadow asked in an annoyed tone of voice.

"Shadow be nice" Maria said as she placed her hand on her hip.

"Okay Maria" Shadow replied "What is it Sonic?"

"Just came to say congrats on you and Maria getting together" Sonic said with a smile and held out his hand to shake Shadow's.

"Thanks" Shadow replied and he shook Sonics, suddenly his whole body began to shake with pain. He fell down and looked to see Sonic holding up his hand to reveal a joy buzzer.

"You should've seen the look on your face!" Sonic said as he roared with laughter, shadow got up and began to clench his hands into fists. Sonic suddenly stopped laughing and his face turned from an expression of happy to an expression of fear.

"I'LL GET YOU YET FAKER!" Shadow yelled with rage and Sonic started to run from Shadow, Maria just shook her head and smiled.

Present.

"But he does have to keep his anger to himself" She walked down the hall and into the kitchen and began to fix herself a bowl of cereal.

"I see you are awake" A familiar voice said, Maria turned around to see Sonic.

"What are you doing here?" Maria asked.

"I came here to apologize to Shadow and probably play another prank on him" Sonic said with a grin "But since he's asleep I guess I'll have to wait for later".

"He said he'd give a tour of Mobius today" Maria said "But I can wait till he wakes up".

"How about after breakfast" A voice said and Shadow walked into the kitchen.

"You're awake!" Maria said with glee and rushed over to him and kissed him on the cheek.

"Hey Shadz" Sonic said nervously.

"Hello faker" Shadow replied and waved to Sonic.

"Hey did you guys hear about the new guy that moved in down the street across from Tails house?" Sonic asked.

"Yeah" Shadow said "Why?"

"C-Can I come in?" A shy voice said, the three turned around to see a black, white, silver, gold, and red colored hedgehog with golden shoes and earrings.

"Yeah Kevin" Sonic said as the hedgehog took a seat "Guys this is Kevin".

"Hello" Maria said.

"Nice to meet ya" Shadow said.

"H-Hello there" Kevin said as he nervously waved to the other two hedgehogs "You guys must be Shadow and Maria".

"Nice to meet you too" Maria said.

"Are we going to show Maria around Mobius or what?" Sonic asked.

"Yeah come on!" Maria said as she grabbed Shadow's hand and dragged him to the pods.

"She's a bit frisky isn't she?" Kevin asked Sonic nodded.

Later…

"What's he doing?" Kevin asked as he, Sonic, Maria and Shadow watch Knuckles argue with Rouge the bat…Again.

"He's just arguing with Rouge" Sonic said "As usual".

"Just admit it" Rouge said as she crossed her arms "You're crazy about me".

"You're batty!" Knuckles said as he shook his fist in the air.

"Just admit it" Rouge said.

"Fine" Knuckles growled "I'm a little crazy about you".

"And?" Rouge

"And you are a little cute" Knuckles said, Rouge smiled and gave him a peck on the cheek. The others couldn't believe what they just saw or heard, sonic couldn't help but try and have some fun.

"Knuckles and Rouge sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Sonic chanted as he began to pretend to make a smooching sound.

"What the?" Knuckles turned his head around to see Sonic, Shadow, Maria and Kevin standing in the bushes.

"Heh heh" Sonic nervously chuckled "Hey Knuckles, hey Rouge".

"Run" Maria said as Knuckles walked over to them with his hands clenched into fist and he had an angry expression.

"Get back here!" Knuckles yelled as the four ran away.

"Don't worry about them Knuckies" Rouge said as she wrapped her arm around knuckles and gave him another kiss on the cheek, Knuckles just blushed and smiled.

Meanwhile….

"Master Egg man are you okay?" Orbot asked his evil master.

"You haven't eaten or slept for days now" Cubot said.

"Yes I'm fine you fools" Egg man replied "It's that Maria hedgehog though".

"What about her?" Bokkun asked.

"She reminds me of my older deceased cousin" Egg man said as he pondered about her, could she somehow survived and… "That's it! Keep an eye on the base, I'll be right back!"

"Yes sir!" Bokkun said as he saluted his master and Egg man got into his egg carrier and flew away.

Meanwhile…

"Here's your daily water Cosmo" Tails said as he watered the plant of his deceased love life, the plant gently nodded its leaves and Tails smiled.

KNOCK! KNOCK!

"It's open!" Tails said as the door opened to reveal someone Tails was least excited to see.

"Hello Miles"

"Egg man!" Tails yelled and he quickly grabbed a book to throw at the doctor and another one.

"Wait! I'm not here to attack!" Egg man yelled as he tried to block himself "I just need some help!"

"No way! No way am I helping you with… whatever you're planning to do to take over the world!" Tails said as he switched to a lamp to throw.

"I'm not planning anything to take over the world" Egg man said "I just want to know about Maria". Tails suddenly stopped and stared at the doctor.

"What are you talking about?" Tails asked.

"I need to know about my so-called deceased cousin Maria" Egg man said as he handed Tails a picture of Maria in human form, Tails looked at the picture and back at Egg man and shook his head.

"Okay what do you want to know?" Tails asked.

Meanwhile…

"And this is the ice cap zone" Sonic said as Shadow, Maria and Kevin froze themselves off.

"C-can w-we go somewhere w-where I-its war-warmer f-f-faker?" Shadow asked Sonic.

"Yeah sure" Sonic said and the four walked to a much warmer part of Mobius.

"Doesn't he ever get cold here?" Kevin asked Shadow.

"Does No count as an answer?" Shadow joked, Maria just rolled her eyes and smiled.

"Race you guys to station square" Sonic said as he sped his way to station square with the three following behind, across the frozen tundra Egg man and Tails were watching Maria.

"Trans-DNA transferal was the necessary requirement to save her?" Egg man asked Tails.

"Yes and now she's a hedgehog" Tails replied.

"I must speak to her immediately" Egg man said and walked away, Tails couldn't help but smile.

"He must really care about her" He thought to himself.

Later…

"Beat you guys to it" Sonic said as Shadow, Maria and Kevin walked towards Sonic to a small restaurant.

"I'll beat you next time faker" Shadow said as he smiled.

"You guys want to get something to eat?" Maria asked.

"Yeah sure" Sonic said.

"O-okay" Kevin shyly said, Shadow just nodded.

"I'm buying" Sonic said as he pulled some gold rings from his pocket.

"I'll see you guys in a minute I have to use the bathroom" Maria said.

"Okay Maria" Shadow said, Maria entered the restroom and did her business and went to wash her hands when suddenly a strange man appeared.

"Hello Maria"

"Egg man!" Maria turned around and clenched her hands into fists.

"Don't worry I'm not going to attack" Egg man said "I just want to talk to you". Maria just stared at the old doctor.

"No I don't want to talk to you" Maria said as she walked out of the room, Egg man just followed her to the table where her friends were.

"Egg man! What are you doing here!?" Sonic yelled.

"I just want to talk to Maria" Egg man said as he crossed his arms "And I'm not leaving until I talk to her". Maria suddenly smiled at her younger cousin and led him to a seat to next to her.

"Okay what do you want to talk about?" Maria asked Egg man.

"First what are you doing still being alive?" Egg man asked, Maria handed him a book by their grandfather.

"Operation Maria?"

"Go ahead read it" Maria said, Egg man opened the book and began to read the documents that their grandfather put in the book to explain Maria's revival and he was shocked at each sentence.

"Where can I find the secret room?" Egg man asked "Just to look at it that is".

"You are not going to find that secret room Egg man" Sonic said "Stay away from it or else".

"Or else what?" Egg man asked.

"Shadow care to show him?" Sonic asked, Shadow grabbed a pepper shaker and crushed it in his hands. Egg man nervously gulped at the sight, he knew what that meant and he didn't like the way the results would turn out on him.

"Fine" He growled.

"Why is his mustache so big?" Kevin asked Sonic.

"MY MUSTACHE IS NOT BIG!" Egg man yelled at the nervous hedgehog, Kevin just shook nervously and the old doctor walked out the restaurant.

"I could give a care less about those stupid creatures" Egg man said to himself "But Maria is now one of them and she's just going to be a big nuisance like them". The old doctor could help but look back at his cousin and her friends, egg man sadly smiled and walked back to his secret base.

"Sorry you had to hear him yell Maria" Shadow said to her.

"It's okay Shadow" Maria replied as she too smiled sadly "He was just curious about me and how I survived".

"Yeah and for once I actually thought egg man was acting nice" Sonic said, both he and Shadow shudder and nearly gagged at the thought. Maria and Kevin just looked at each other and laughed out loud, after lunch the four met Tails and Cream in the park and Sonic began to tell Tails about egg man actually being nice for once.

"I know right? It just seems so weird" Sonic said "Metaphorically speaking"

"Even when he asked me to help him I just wondered about the old guy" Tails replied.

"Well he did seemed worried about Mrs. Maria" Cream said, the three animals turned to see Shadow and Maria talking about egg man as well. Shadow laughed at her impersonating the doctor.

"And I will rule the world one day!" Maria said.

"Too good to be false" Shadow said, there was a sudden beeping sound and Sonic pulled out a phone from unknown whereabouts.

"Oh come on! He's at it again!" Sonic complained "Come on Tails and Cream, egg man has the chaos emeralds… again". Tails and Cream groaned while Cheese just said chao chao and the hero's ran to the spot egg man was at.

"Don't worry about them Maria and Kevin" Shadow said.

"Okay but I got to go home and take care of something" Kevin said with a smile "See ya later!" Kevin ran back to his house and Shadow and Maria walked back to station square.

"Did you enjoy your tour today?" Shadow asked her.

"It was great and I finally get to stay here on earth!" Maria replied with excitement.

"I'm just happy your still alive and we're back together" Shadow said, he was about to pull her in for a kiss until they were interrupted by Manic and Sonia the hedgehogs.

"What up dude?" Manic asked, Shadow just sighed and turned his attention to Sonic's siblings.

"Trying to spend time with Maria" Shadow answered, Sonia sighed happily at the young couple while Manic made the peace sign to Maria.

"It's finally nice to meet you" Sonia said "Our brother told us about you".

"And Sonic told me about you two and the adventures he had with you guys" Maria replied, Shadow just shook his head and tried to shoo the two away.

"Sorry bud, but the shoo technique just won't work this time" Manic said as he sat next to him, Shadow now knew that Manic was here to stay.

"Hey Maria, me and the girls were going shopping later at the Mobian mall" Sonia said "you wanna come with us?" Maria excitedly shook her head.

"Yes!" she said.

"What about you Shadow? You wanna hang with me and the guys while the girls go to the mall" Manic asked, Shadow shook his head and gave a hmph.

"Great! See you at my house later on!" Manic said as he and Sonia walked away, Shadow didn't know that the afternoon would be a disaster.
