Hey everybody! Galexia the Chao here! This is one of the more interesting (and longer)chapters! Yay! Now there are only about two chapters(I think) left to the story!

Disclaimer: Uh, Starfreak owns Kitsune and Starry, while Starvix owns Zombie and Storm337 owns Storm…Sega owns the Sonic Team (and Shadow, since he says that he isn't part of the Sonic team, lol)

Hmm people really like pen names that start with the letter 'S' I see… Besides I only own the story and the laptop that I'm typing on!

Thanks to: Cyrothehedgehog, Storm337, Black Jairo-Shadow Rose, Sydneythecat, Flare the Hedgehog, Neo's Shadow and Layla the Hedgehog for reviewing!

On with the story!

Inside Tails' Lab…

Sonic's POV

Ah…everything has been so weird today…First Tails gives me a weird fruit, then I ask Amy out, and now I kissed her! What is wrong with me!

Now Amy and I were inside Tails' lab where he was taking some tests to counter attack the effects of the fruit and blah blah blah. Cosmo had gone to watch Zombie and Cheese while Cream was down here whispering intently to Tails. I didn't want to talk about the kiss with Cream around since I knew that she could understand chao language (how do you think that she understands Cheese all the time?).

Finally after waiting and waiting and waiting…did I mention that we were waiting? Tails and Cream both turned to us. I looked at Amy who looked at me, what did they have to tell us?

"Um…Sonic and Amy, we have to tell you guys something, and it's really important." Cream said. Tails sighed once more, before talking,

"Well, remember that fruit that I gave to you guys from before?" I nodded my head, while the ball above Amy's head turned into a question mark, where were these guys getting too? "Well, it was actually a Chao fertility fruit that Cream had bought by accident."

Again with the chao fertility fruit, I thought while tapping my foot impatiently, What's so important about it anyway? It tasted really good! Amy still stared intently at the two, waiting for them to go on. Tails however noticed my movements and sighed again. What was with all of the sighing?

"Sonic, please, I'm getting to it and it's really important, so please wait a second…anyway, the Chao fertility fruit um…it uh…well…" Tails gulped. I narrowed my eyes and an irritation mark went above my head, Out with it Tails, me and Amy have to go get that chili dog later on today! Suddenly Cream blurted out.

"It makes chao fall in love!" Cream then covered her mouth with her hands and an embarrassed blush appeared on her muzzle, she had blurted it out, by accident. Well it wasn't totally her fault! I was giving her mean looks and Tails was taking forever to tell us that.

My mouth formed a perfect O as I shouted some not nice words at Tails, Cream's blush becoming even redder as she translated my words in her head. (What in the name of Cheese freaking wiz are you talking about? Why did you even have a fruit that make chao fall in love in the first place?)

Suddenly Amy slapped me across the face.

"Ow! Amy! What didya do that for?" I asked as I rubbed by face with my paw.

"You only asked me out just because you were under the influence of that fruit!" She said angrily. Cream was so red that she was the color of Knucklehead's fur,

"Sonic…you asked her out?" she whispered so Tails wouldn't hear her.

"I only asked if you wanted to get a chilidog with me later!" I argued, as I got angry that she kept slapping my face.

"I thought that you actually like me, but no! You, you you disgusting person!" She yelled as tears were spilling down her face and she pulled out her hammer once more. I then started to back away from her as the hammer got bigger and bigger.

"You're a horrible person, Sonic the Hedgehog!" she shouted as she hit me repeatedly in the head with her hammer.

"Amy! Amy! Stop! Amy! Ouch! That really hurts!" I shouted as she bashed my face in. Finally I was really annoyed(which was rare for me), my head hurt and she wasn't even listening to what I was trying to say.

"Amy!" I shouted once more, to get her attention, to no avail. Then at Sonic speed, I grabbed her by her shoulders and kissed her. On the lips.

Man, that was really, really weird. It didn't feel weird though…it felt…nice, in a way, but not like anything that I had ever done before. Like sweet, but…eh it takes too much time to describe it. Even though it lasted about two seconds, it felt like an hour. As I pulled apart from her, Amy's hammer had disappeared, Cream was gaping at us, and Tails kept muttering "the kiss, the kiss, the kiss…" over and over as if he was in a trance.

"T-Tails…" Cream could only make out, as she was still in shock.

"Once you give a chao the fertility fruit, they have to kiss their mate to go into their second evolution…" Tails muttered out mindlessly as he tried to piece together what he had just witnessed.

I mean it's not every day that you see, Sonic the hedgehog, kiss Amy Rose, his stalker, the girl that he proclaimed that he didn't, wouldn't and ever love.

At the park…
~~~***~~~~***~~~***

Storm's POV

Now that Eggman had kicked me out of the base, I had my glorious little Shadow chao, along with Kitsune my trigger happy chao and Starry, my unicorn chao. I hummed happily, to the park, with my Shadow chao whom I had dubbed Shadz (much to his dislike) and sat down on a park bench.

As I set Shadz down along with Kitsune and Starry, I opened my laptop that I had brought with me, to find out more about how to take care of a Shadow chao. After all, I didn't want to do the wrong things to make Shadz hate me more than he already seemed to!

Anyway, as I typed in Shadow chao into the search engine, I noticed something disturbing. An article called,

Shadow and Sonic are…chao? I clicked on it, surprised; I didn't think that Shadow had anything to do with Sonic, none the less with chao as well… As I read the article however, my eyes became big in realization.

Shadow and Sonic are…chao?

Just a few weeks ago when world renowned hero Sonic the hedgehog raced into Dr. Robotnik, commonly known as Eggman's secret base, to rescue his number one fan and self-proclaimed girlfriend Amy Rose, the evil doctor had a trick up his sleeve. As Sonic made a mad dash for the girl, Eggman fired a laser beam at the two that had turned them both into chao!

Local residents at Emerald Town have seen the two chao at Sonic's best friend Miles 'Tails' Prower's home along with Cream the rabbit, and their alien friend Cosmo the Seedrian, who had recently saved the world from the evil aliens the Metarex.

Rumors have also surfaced saying that a human girl was walking around with a Shadow chao that looked exactly like Shadow the Hedgehog, rings and all. From these rumors, we have also deduced that Eggman has turned, the Top-Secret Project Shadow, who had recently paired up with Sonic to stop the ARK into crashing into the earth into a chao as well.

What will happen to the fate of the world with our two heroes out of commission? More details on Channel 8.

I shakily closed the laptop, my mind now not focusing on the proper way to care for a Shadow chao but, now the obvious truth that in fact…

Holy freaking cheese wiz, Shadow was actually a chao!

I then picked up said chao who was in a heated argument with Kitsune while Starry was trying to calm them both down and looked him into the eye.

"…Shadow is that really you?" Instead of answering, he gave me the look, one that said, No dur Sherlock, it really took you that long to notice, and you're supposed to be the second ultimate life form…

I hugged him tightly,

"Oh, Shadow! That stupid Eggman had you caged up! I bet that he did some horrible stuff to you! Don't worry." I said as I clenched my fists in determination, "He will pay." A loud boom, followed by a streak of lightning followed my sentence, as I marched out of the park, Kitsune and Starry on my heels.

~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~
Back at Tails' house…

~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~
Shadow's POV

Now that Storm had figured out everything, she had marched out of the park and to Tails' house, where hopefully he would have the cure, to make me turn back to normal so that I could destroy Eggman, for one giving me a fake emerald and two for abusing me as a chao.

A worthless, little chao.

How pathetic.

Now as we rang the door bell to Tails' house Kitsune took this opportunity to try and talk to me again.

"Now…how much for those gold rings?" She asked as Starry gave her a skeptical look.

"Kitsune that's Shadow the hedgehog. You know, Shadow the Ultimate life form! He could kill you in an instant if he didn't have those rings on. Why do you want them in the first place?"

"Well if I wear them then Sonic will stop calling me a Tails look alike, and besides…they're stylish." Kitsune said while striking a pose. I sighed, but before I could make a threat the door opened.

"Hello?" A green plant-like alien asked us. I immediately recognized her as Cosmo.

"Cosmo, take us to Tails! I need to know if he has the antidote so I can be rid of this infernal chao body so I can destroy that pathetic excuse for a doctor known as Eggman." I said to her. Too bad my entire sentence came out as "Chao chao chao, chao chao chao chao, chao chao."

"Uh, hi. My name's Storm. Remember when I came over here before and…uh kinda set your kitchen on fire?" Storm asked sheepishly. Cosmo nodded slowly.

"Yes…do you need something or did you just want to bring your chao over so they could play with Sonic and Amy?" she asked.

"Not really…but have you seen Tails around because we have something very important to tell him!" Storm replied. Just as she said this, a familiar blue hedgehog chao poked his head out the door. At once I recognized him as Sonic or as I liked to call him, Faker.

"Its, you Faker!" I growled as I squirmed trying to get out of Storm's grip.

"Hey, Shads what brings you here?" Faker asked teasingly. He then looked at Kitsune, "Its you. Don't come near me or I'll scream! That paint didn't come off for weeks!" Kitsune laughed at him, while I struggled to get down.

"Let go of me you infernal human!" I spat as Storm let go of me once she noticed that I was trying to get down. As she looked at the annoyed sign that appeared over my head she tisked.

"Shadow, Shadow, temper, temper, that'll never get you anywhere. Anyway can we come in?"

"Yeah, I'll go and get Tails. By the way my name's Cosmo." Cosmo said as she let Kitsune, Storm and Starry in. Once they had left for Tails' lab, Faker's mood changed drastically.

"Why are you here Shadow? Come to 'destroy' me in a chao fight again, because I'm much stronger?"

"No, I have only come for the antidote. The doctor will pay for tricking me with a fake chaos emerald…"

"Sheesh you're just as gullible as Knuckles," Faker teased before continuing, "But I must warn you that antidote stuff is-" Faker was then cut off by a glomp from a pink hedgehog chao.

"Sonic! We better hurry if we want to get that chilidog before the antidote kicks in." the chao whom I now recognized as Amy chirped.

"Well, I was just talking to Shadow here, but we can go now, if ya want." Sonic said as he returned the hug. I raised my eyebrow in surprise, why was Faker hugging his stalker? What happened to him to make him hug her and not run away?

"Shadow?" Amy then looked at me, "Oh you got hit by Eggman's ray too huh? Well Tails has the antidote but you better be careful it-" Faker then cut her off with a kiss on the lips.

"Let's not ruin the surprise Ames." Faker whispered into her ear before, holding her hand, "Well, like she said we've got a chilidog to get so, bye." And with that Sonic and Amy sped off in the general direction of the chilidog stand. I looked at the direction that they sped off in.

"What the heck…?" I asked out loud. Why did Sonic and Amy just kiss, and how come Sonic didn't get embarrassed and run away like he normally does?

"The antidote somehow made them fall in love, and then they kissed so they could reach their second evolution, because once they get to their second evolution, they can turn back to normal." Kitsune spoke up from behind me.

I turned around in shock. How did she get behind me?

"Don't. Do. That." I whispered meananicingly.

"What?" Kitsune shrugged, "I just heard about it from Tails, who was telling Storm, Starry and Cosmo and besides," Kitsune then sat down next to me, "If you need anyone to kiss to get into that second evolution, I'm always available." She said with a wink.

I threw her across the room.

"I'll be fine thanks." I growled. Suddenly, Tails, Cream, Cosmo, Storm, and Starry came up to me holding a heart shaped fruit.

"Uh, Shadow here's the antidote but I must warn you that-" Tails was saying until I grabbed the fruit out of his hands and chowed down on it immediately. "…you know what never mind, Don't listen to me because none of you guys listen to me anyway!" Tails said as he ran off. Tears pricking at his eyes.

"Tails wait!" Cosmo shouted as she ran after him. She didn't like to see him upset.

Suddenly I felt a tingly feeling in my chest, and I stared blankly at Kitsune.

"Uh, Shadow you okay?" Storm asked me as she tried to pick me up. I slapped her hand away from me, and ran over to Kitsune and kissed her on the lips.

Once I let go of her Kitsune and I stared at each other.

And stared.

And stared.

And stared.

Until finally she pulled out her paintball gun, and started to pelt me with giant balls of paint,

"Don't you EVER do that to me again, Shadow the Hedgehog, or I will pelt you so much that it'll KILL YOU!" She screamed as she chased me around the house, trying to pelt me with paint, the others still in shock at the fact that I just kissed her.

"But you said that if I ever needed anyone to kiss that I could use you-" She then cut me off by firing paint into my mouth.

"I didn't mean it like that you, pervert! Ugh! Just for that, I get to keep your rings!" She yelled as she finally stopped running when she noticed that I wasn't running from her anymore. "…Shadow are you okay?"

Suddenly, I felt very tired, so tired that I could barely stand. I sat down.

"Shadow, are you…?" Kitsune asked me before; she was shielded by a veil of blue and yellow as a chao cocoon appeared around my body as, I started my second evolution.

~~~***~~~~***~~~***
At the Chilidog Stand…

Sonic's POV

As soon as Amy and I got our chilidogs, we were on our way back to Tails' house. Once we were there, I ate my chilidog in three seconds flat.

"Sonic," Amy play scolded me, "You're going to make a mess if you eat that fast."

"Alright, mother, I'll clean up." I said as I played along. As I was waiting for another teasing remark from the pink chao there was none so I looked at her. She was sitting down on the steps leading to Tails' house.

"Amy, are you alright?" I asked her, when suddenly, I felt so fatigued, that I had to sit down. Right then and there I knew that I was going into my second evolution.

"Sonic…" Amy muttered as she held out her hand. I grabbed it and squeezed it once more before, we were both engulfed in blue and yellow chao cocoons.


Ahh! Sqeee~ I'm done! Whoo! It sure is hard making each chapter longer than the last one…phew…

But here's another puzzle! This one I made up by myself! Its called…

Chao?

Sonic was in the park when he saw three chao eggs. One was orenge and black, one was blue and white and one was purple and yellow. Sonic took all of the chao eggs home and gave one of them to Tails and one of them to Knuckles. When they all hatched, Sonic's was a running chao, Tails was a flying chao and Knuckles was a power chao.

From these clues find out which type of chao each person got (its either Hero, Neutral or Dark).

1.) Sonic played the banjo with his chao.
2.) Chao's like to play the banjo.
3.) Knuckles' starved his chao, and used him as a punching bag.
4.) Tails performed studies on his chao, making the chao scared of him.
5.) Knuckles threw his chao off of Angel Island once
6.) Tails gave his chao lots of attention, making it feel wanted.
7.) Sonic and his chao started a banjo band.

Chao for now!
