InvaderTeen 14 presents…
Maria Robotnik's return.
Chapter 8: A date, a fight and a…Dancing Shadow? Part 1 of 2.
"You asked her out?" Shadow asked Mighty as the he sat on the recliner in his room, the red armadillo was going through Shadow's fancy clothing for his date with Molly the hedgehog, Mighty gave a nod and finally settled on a black tuxedo and held it up to Shadow to see.
"You think this is a good one?" he asked.
"You and her are going on a date" Shadow said "you two aren't getting married".
"But after a couple of dates and maybe two or three years" Mighty said as he set the tuxedo back in the closet and searched for something else "we will make a great husband and wife and hopefully have a couple of hedgemadillo's" Shadow tried hard not to laugh at the thought of Mighty's future children, the armadillo had found a gray t-shirt and put it on, he came out of the closet with the gray t-shirt and a pair of pants he found and made himself presentable to Shadow "how do I look?"
"Like a hundred dollars" Shadow said.
"Thanks Shadow!" Mighty said as he rushed out of the room, the black and red hedgehog gave a thumbs up and walked out of the room also, he had nearly gone past Gerald's room when he saw the gray hedgehog whispering in a walklie-talkie and went to investigate with his hedgehog hearing.
"And tell Eggman that our plan to get the master emerald is going better than expected!" Gerald said "that excuse for a hedgehog Shadow doesn't even know that-" he suddenly felt heavy breathing on his neck and turned around to see a furious Shadow the hedgehog.
"What was that about me being an excuse for my species?!" Shadow said.
Meanwhile…
"May I come in?" Mighty asked as he knocked on Molly's new bedroom door.
"In a minute" Molly replied "I'm almost done getting dress" Molly was finishing up on getting her dress on for her date with armadillo, the brown hedgehog walked over to a mirror and saw herself, she had no idea that Mighty was behind her.
"Hello gorgeous" Mighty said, Molly spun around to see the armadillo smiling and blushing.
"H-Hi Mighty" Molly said as she blushed also.
"Ready to go?" he asked.
"Ready" Molly said, the armadillo grabbed her by the hand and walked her to the ARK'S pods, she looked at him to see he had a hard but gentle look on his face and she became a little wooed by this "hey Mighty?"
"Yeah?"
"If you had suspicions about someone you barely knew about but was working for someone evil" Molly said "would you know?" Mighty pondered about this for a moment and shook his head.
"Only if that person betrayed you" Mighty replied "why you ask?"
"Because…" Molly began "I think that Gerald is working for Eggman, I saw him talking to someone named Metal Sonic" Mighty shook his head and rolled his eyes.
"You're probably just imaging things" Mighty said "after all, you came back to life also".
"Okay" Molly said "are we going out or not?"
"Just let me open up the pod" Mighty said as he struggled to open a pod and succeeded "ladies first" he allowed Molly to be the first to go in the pod before he did, Mighty pressed in the coordinates for the earth and it hurdled down to earth with a loud CRASH! Luckily the two survived and Mighty took Molly by the hand and showed her to the place he was taking her.
Meanwhile…
"Now Shadow I can explain!" Gerald said as he dodged the hedgehogs flying fist, Shadow had grown engulfed in anger as he tried to punch the professor, the dark hedgehog had learned the truth about Gerald.
"You big user!" Shadow yelled "you were working for Eggman!" Gerald kept avoiding Shadows fist until finally he was hit right in the stomach, Gerald was sent flying across the room and went face first into the wall. Shadow walked towards him and grabbed him by the collar "and now to teach you a lesson!" Shadow threw his hand back a little bit and closed his eyes "Chaos…."
"Shadow!" Maria's voice shouted, Shadow turned around to see a shocked Maria with her hand across her mouth, he dropped Gerald and Maria rushed towards the gray hedgehog "what were you doing to grandfather?!"
"Maria, he's working for Eggman! I saw him talking to someone on a walkie-talkie about Eggman's plan to steal the master emerald!" Shadow said.
"Maybe you were mistaken" Maria said "maybe he was talking about something else but that didn't give you a right to attack grandfather! I thought you were friends with grandfather!" Shadow looked at the ground and groaned.
"You can't trust him" Shadow said "I know he's working for Eggman" Maria looked at him with a dirty look and helped her grandfather up "Maria!"
"Leave me alone Shadow!" she said "I'm going to find something to heal grandfather" Gerald smiled at his granddaughter and then turned to smile evilly at Shadow before he walked out of the room with Maria, Shadow grabbed a green chaos emerald from behind his back and held up in the air.
"Time to get to the bottom of this" Shadow said "CHAOS…CONTROL!" he was teleported out of the room in an instant.
"Sorry about what happened grandfather" Maria said as she walked Gerald to the infirmary.
"It's okay Maria" Gerald said, he secretly grabbed a taser from behind his back and stuck it behind Maria's back "sometimes things can get shocking if they are not fully understood" Maria nodded and suddenly felt a great electric pain all over her body, she fell to ground unconscious and Gerald whistled, Bocoe and Docoe came from behind a wall and rushed over to Maria "get her to the egg base immediately".
"Yes Gerald" the two robots said as they carried Maria to the egg base.
Meanwhile…
"Table for two please" Mighty said as he and Molly stood before a waiter at a restaurant called Star lights.
"Yes sir" the waiter said "follow me" the two nodded and followed the waiter to their table, the waiter finally showed them their table and went to get them a drink while they sat down.
"Pretty nice huh?" Mighty asked Molly, the brown hedgehog was looking across the restaurant until he got her attention.
"Huh? Oh! Yeah, it's pretty nice" she said "I've never been to a place like this before, thanks for bringing me here Mighty".
"You're welcome Molly" Mighty said, the waiter came back with a bottle of sparkling water and poured some into their glasses on the table.
"Are you ready to order?" the waiter asked.
"In five minutes" Mighty replied "thank you" the waiter nodded and walked away, the red armadillo turned his attention to molly to see she was troubled "what's wrong Molly?" she suddenly snapped out of her trance and turned her attention to him.
"Its…About what I heard earlier on" she replied "I heard Gerald talking to a robot called Metal Sonic, they were planning to steal something called the master emerald" Mighty started to get very interested in what she was saying.
"When did you hear them talk about this?" he asked.
"When I was on the ARK, I don't when they're going to steal it but I know it's going to be soon" she said, the waiter came back with a pencil and notepad and he was ready to take their orders.
"Are you two ready to order?" he asked.
"Actually we'll take the check" Mighty said as he and Molly got up from their table and ran out of the restaurant, leaving the waiter completely confused.
"O…Kay" he said.
Chapter 8 2 of 2 coming soon.
