(A/N): You all hate me I know. It just had to happen.
Shade paced in his living room as Nessa, Aiden, and Cheka watched. He told Flash what happened and he insisted they go look for him, but Shade said they would get blasted down.
"Is he really gone?" Cheka asked as Shade sighed.
"I don't know." Shade said as he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Shade! Look!" Aiden exclaimed as he held up two pieces of paper. Shade saw his and Shawn's name written on one and grabbed it.
Shade and Shawn,
By the time you read this letter I'll be gone. I'm going to kill myself or any shit like that. Don't worry. I just need sometime to myself. You can tell the others and my family, but please don't try to find me. Don't be mad at Chrissy. This is my choice. I don't know when I'll be back. I could be a week (doubtful) or years. I'm continuing my studies independently and stopping at universities on the way. If you try to find me I will have to runaway or worse, hurt you. I wish you guys all the success and promise.
Signed,
Bolt Solari
Shade yelled in frustration as he chucked the letter. Cheka floated over it as Nessa and Aiden read it.
"So, he's gone?" Cheka said as Shade nodded. "It seems like he's traveling around." Cheka said as Shade collapsed on the couch.
"It doesn't matter where he is. Even if we found out he would just runaway from us." Shade said as he heard his door open. Cheka quickly disappeared as Shade walked over to the door.
"Shade! Guess what!" Chrissy yelled excitedly as Shade frowned.
"You got engaged." Shade said solemnly as Nessa and Aiden sneaked into the other room.
"How did you know?" Chrissy asked confused as Shade crossed his arms.
"Because I saw you. I was with Bolt." Shade said as Chrissy stiffened and looked at him sadly. "He ran away." Shade said.
"W-What do you mean?" Chrissy stuttered as Shade stomped into the living room.
"He left. He's gone. He went bye-bye. Is there any other way to put it?!" Shade yelled as Chrissy stared at him.
"Why didn't you stop him?" Chrissy questioned.
"I tried! He blasted me down!" Shade exclaimed in frustration. Chrissy gulped as she looked down.
"Why did he leave?" Chrissy asked quietly knowing the answer. Shade threw his arms in the air as he shook his head.
"Why do you think?! He left! He left because of you!" Shade yelled as Chrissy bit her lip trying to hold back the tears. Shade sighed before walking over to Chrissy and hugging her. "I'm sorry. It was just a little overwhelming." Shade said as she nodded against his shoulder.
"Maybe I should break off the engagement." Chrissy said as Shade internally did a happy dance. Suddenly Cheka appeared on his shoulder lounging around.
"You better not say, 'You should'." Cheka said as Shade glared at him.
'Why not?' Shade thought as Cheka floated onto his own feet.
"She's happy and she won't be if you tell her to break it off." Cheka said as Shade rolled his eyes.
'But she'll be happier with Bolt.' Shade thought back.
"Do you see Bolt around? No, he's gone. We don't know when he's getting back." Cheka said as Shade sighed.
'Fine, but I'm not happy about it.' Shade thought before Cheka disappeared. Shade smiled sadly at Chrissy before remembering something. He picked up one of Bolt's letters and handed it to Chrissy.
"I think you should read this." Shade said as Chrissy looked at him confused before taking the letter. She sat on the couch looking at the letter in her hands sadly.
"WHAT!?" Hailey yelled as Flash covered his ears. "He did what?!" She yelled as Flash hid behind Ivy.
"He left." Ivy said as Hailey began to pace in front of her friends.
"Baby…calm down." Lorgo said as Hailey whipped around to face him.
"Don't tell me to calm down when I found out my brother left!" Hailey said as Lorgo hid behind Flash. "How could he just leave!? I mean, I know Chrissy got engaged to another guy, but c'mon! He just up and left!" Hailey said throwing her arms in the air with frustration. "I'm so telling Mom!" Hailey said as she continued to pace.
"Hailey, Hailey relax!" Shade said as he walked towards the two couples.
"You!" Hailey said glaring at Shade. "Why in the hell did you not stop my brother?! Was a little lightening too much for you?! You should have tackled the motherfucker!" Hailey yelled as she grabbed Shade's shirt and shaking him back and forth.
"Hailey! Hailey! Calm down!" Lorgo yelled as he pulled her off Shade.
"You let my brother leave! You barely tried!" She yelled as tears started to pour down her cheeks. "We don't know where the fuck he is and if he's coming back because of you!" She yelled as Shade frowned.
"I couldn't stop him! I was being a good friend by letting him go! Letting him stay here and watch the love of his life marry someone else is torture! He needs this!" Shade yelled as Hailey huffed and walked away with Lorgo. Shade sighed as he walked over to Flash and Ivy.
"This has been a stressful day." Shade said running his hands through his quills. "Does anyone know where my girlfriend is?" Shade said as Ivy's eyes widened.
"Where are my kids?!" She asked grabbing Shade's shirt collar.
"Chrissy's watching them!" Shade said putting his hands up defensively.
"Oh, well…Suzy is at her apartment." Ivy said letting go of his shirt. Shade straightened out his shirt before running towards the apartment.
"I was dragged out of class for this?" Flash muttered to himself before walking back to his class. Renegade was walking out of his class when Rafael decided to walk by him.
"If you were smart you would get out of my sight." Renegade growled as Rafael smirked.
"Too bad I'm genius and know you won't do shit to me." Rafael said as Renegade whipped towards him and pushed him away. "Ow…that hurt." Rafael said sarcastically. Renegade smirked as he held up an iPhone. Rafael's eyes widened as he looked at his phone in Renegade's hands. "You better give that back." Rafael growled. He knew it had important things were on it and it wasn't just the average phone.
"I think not." Renegade said as he stuffed it into his backpack. Rafael scowled at him before a thought popped into his head.
"Have it your way Black." Rafael said before teleporting away in a fazing motion. Renegade glared into the darkness before walking back to his car. Lilac was sitting her bed thinking about the necklace around her neck and the strange dream she had a few months ago and the ones to follow. She would always picture the same peach colored hedgehog with the pink tipped quills and her baby being shot in their home. She suddenly remembered Shade having a similar necklace and quickly dialed his number.
"Hey Lilac." Shade answered as Lilac bit her lip.
"Shade…you have one don't you?" Lilac asked. She heard silence on the other end for a while before Shade said something.
"I'm coming over." He said before hanging the phone up. Lilac put her phone down as she walked into the living room. Shade opened the door as Lilac fingered her stone.
"You're having the dreams aren't you?" Shade asked as he approached her slowly.
"What dreams are you having?" Lilac asked as she sat on her couch. Shade sat next to her with his elbows resting on her knees.
"It's Cheka…he's either finding his girl and son dead or he's in a church praying." Shade said as Lilac leaned forward.
"I think I'm witnessing them getting killed." Lilac said Shade looked over to her. "It has something to do with these necklaces doesn't it?" She asked as Shade nodded. Lilac held her necklace as she reached for Shade's with her other hand. As soon as she touched it they both gasped. Shade's eyes turned red and Lilac's eyes turned pink. They faced each other and kissed each other passionately. Shade intertwined his fingers in her quills as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I love you Cheka." She murmured as they pulled away for a second.
"You're my love Rosa." Shade whispered against her neck before kissing her with the same passion. Shade accidently ripped of Lilac's necklace and both their eyes returned back to their normal color. Both their eyes widened as they pushed away from each other.
"Uh…" Lilac said awkwardly as Shade growled in frustration.
"I'm going to figure more about this. Just keep it on ok?" Shade said as he stood up from the couch. Lilac nodded as Shade ran out of her apartment. Chrissy was still sitting in Shade's apartment with the letter in her hands.
"Are you going to read it?" Nessa asked as she stood by Chrissy.
"I'm trying to build up to courage." Chrissy said her eyes never leaving the letter.
"What are you afraid of?" Nessa asked.
"His pain." Chrissy said as Nessa frowned.
"He still loves you know." She said as Chrissy looked at the eleven-year-old. "I know I haven't really known you guys for long, but even when Bolt was with that other girl he would always look at you. I know its love because he looked at you the same way my dad looks at my mom." Nessa said as Chrissy smiled a bit. "And that love lasts forever." Nessa said as Chrissy sighed.
"Not this one." Chrissy said.
"Mom always told me that true love doesn't die. It only rests for a little while." Nessa said as Chrissy smiled at her.
"Thanks Nessa." Chrissy said as Nessa smiled softly.
"Your welcome." Nessa said before walking out of the room. Chrissy took a deep breath before opening the letter.
Chrissy,
By now you probably heard I left. I bet it was Shade who told you. He probably said it was because of your engagement. Well…I can't lie. It's true. Don't be upset. It was just too much for me. It was hard enough to see you two together as boyfriend and girlfriend, but just seeing you with him getting married…its way too overwhelming. I don't hate Stephan…now that's a lie. I would fucking rip his guts out if I had the chance, but that's only because I'm jealous. I guess Stephan is alright. He makes you happy. That's what matters to me. I'll come back soon. I promise, but not right away. Promise me that you let my actions affect your choices.
Love you always,
Bolt Solari
Chrissy wiped her tears away before tracing his name with her fingers. She could see the rough drafts of the letter before the final copy. She wiped her eyes again before she heard the door open. She looked behind her shoulder to see Shade staring at her.
"Oh…you're still here…and crying." Shade said as Chrissy nodded. "You read the letter, huh?" Shade asked as Chrissy nodded. "Are you going to be alright?" Shade asked as Chrissy smiled sadly.
"Yeah…I'll be fine. I'll see you later." She said hugging him before walking out of the door. He ran into his room to see Nessa and Aiden playing video games as Cheka watched.
"You!" Shade said pointing at Cheka who sighed. Aiden and Nessa paused the game and walked out of the room.
"God…these guys have so much drama." Aiden muttered before closing the door. Shade glared at Cheka as Cheka floated off his desk chair.
"Look about the kiss-"Shade cut him off staring at him wide-eyed.
"How do you know about it?!" Shade exclaimed as Cheka sighed.
"Let me explain." Cheka said as Shade sat in his desk chair and looked at him. "When Lilac touch your necklace while touching hers Rosa and I kind of became you guys." Cheka said as Shade raised his eyebrow. "It's new to us. So, I don't understand that much, but when the stones are connected somehow the owners of the stone before you get zapped into yours bodies." Cheka said as Shade sighed.
"Was it necessary to make out then?" Shade asked as Cheka rubbed the back of his neck.
"Well…we haven't had any sexual contact for years besides a chaste kiss…so yeah it was necessary." Cheka said as Shade groaned.
"Haven't you guys done something?!" Shade exclaimed.
"Dude, its heaven. We can't do that kind of stuff there." Cheka said as Shade rolled his eyes. "So…that's what happened." Cheka said as Shade sighed.
"Well I'll make sure that doesn't happen again." Shade said as Cheka smiled sheepishly.
"Uh…well you see about that. Rosa and I kind of wanted to-"Shade cut him off.
"NO FUCKING WAY!" Shade yelled jumping out of his chair.
"We get dollars from you!" Aiden yelled as Shade rolled his eyes.
"Please Shade! I'm begging you." Cheka said getting on his knees. "Just one time I promise!" Cheka pleaded as Shade crossed his arms.
"No!" Shade said as Cheka pouted. "Wait, can Suzy wear the necklace?" Shade asked as Cheka shook his head.
"No…it belongs with Lilac. No one else can wear it." Cheka said as Shade rolled his eyes.
"Then no!" Shade said as Cheka crawled on the ground.
"Please! Please! Please! You won't even remember it!" Cheka said as Shade scoffed.
"I remembered today!" Shade said as Cheka looked up at him.
"That's because I ripped off the necklace. If the necklaces both stay intact then you'll guys have no memory of what happened. We'll do our thing and I'll put you back in your apartment and you won't remember a thing." Cheka said as Shade frowned.
"No way! No! Nope! No!" Shade said shaking his head with his arms crossed over his chest.
"I have my ways Hedgehog. Don't make me use them." Cheka said getting on his feet.
"Cheka! This is beyond reasonable! You're asking me to have sex with Lilac." He said whispering the last part.
"I'm asking you to give me one night with my wife." Cheka said as Shade glared at him.
"No." Shade said when his phone started to ring. "Hello?" Shade answered. "What?! Lilac you can't think that's a good idea. Wait, how did you find out?" Shade asked as Cheka smirked. "Rosa came to you!?" Shade exclaimed as Cheka smiled. "C'mon Lilac we'll be cheating on Suzy and Roddy." Shade said.
"But we won't remember it Shade. I just want a couple to have time together." Lilac said as Shade sighed.
"They have all the time together!" Shade said into his phone.
"Not physically." She said as Shade rolled his eyes. "Shade please. Rosa really wants this with Cheka." Lilac said.
"Fine…" Shade said caving in as Cheka did a happy dance. He hung up with Lilac as Cheka continued to dance.
"Thank you!" Cheka said as he tried to hug him. "If I could hug you I would!" Cheka said as Shade rolled his eyes.
"I better not remember any of this! And you better not get caught!" Shade said fishing out two dollars from his pocket. He slapped them in Aiden's and Nessa's awaiting hands as he moved into the kitchen. Alana was in her room writing a term paper when she heard something outside her window.
"Hello?" She asked as she got up from her desk. She looked out her window, but couldn't see anything past the darkness. She shrugged her shoulders and went back to her desk. She felt a tap on her shoulder and turned around. "What are you do-"She was knocked unconscious from a pinch to her neck. The shadowed figure picked her up bridal style and hopped out her window. Renegade was hanging out with Donovan and Julian at a sandwich place grabbing a late dinner.
"You got the bastard's phone?!" Julian exclaimed as Renegade placed the phone on the table.
"Have you gone through it?" Donovan asked as he lifted it up.
"Nah…I can't figure out the code." Renegade said as Donovan began to try. Renegade rolled his eyes as Julian laughed.
"If Renegade couldn't figure it out I doubt you could." Julian said as Donovan glared at him.
"I'm not stupid. I'm a Forensics major." Donovan said as Julian shrugged his shoulders.
"None of you will figure it out." A familiar voice said. Renegade quickly got up and put the phone in his pocket.
"Rafael." Renegade growled as Julian and Donovan got up.
"Rafael Andrews to you." Rafael said appearing in front of them in the same fazing fashion as before. "Give me my phone back." Rafael said sticking his hand out.
"What makes you think I will?" Renegade asked as Rafael smirked.
"I was hoping you ask." Rafael said as he held his arms out. Alana's body fazed in the middle of the air before dropping into Rafael's arms. Renegade's eyes widened before he growled.
"Let her go." Renegade growled his hands clenching into fists.
"Give me my phone first." Rafael demanded as he glared at Renegade.
"Put Alana down." Renegade said ignoring his demand.
"You can do this all you want, but I want put her down until you toss me my phone." Rafael said as Renegade glared at him.
"Just give it to him Renegade. He won't give her up." Donovan said as Renegade scowled. He pulled the phone out and tossed it in Rafael's waiting palm.
"Thank you." Rafael said as Renegade scowled.
"Give me Alana." Renegade said as Rafael smirked.
"Never mess with me. I'm going to keep for a while actually." Rafael said as Renegade growled.
"Give her to me!" Renegade yelled as he charged Rafael, but he hit an invisible wall.
"Shield. Isn't it handy?" Rafael asked as Renegade smashed his fists into the invisible shield.
"Give me my girlfriend!" He yelled as he stuck his hands on the field before the glowed purple. Rafael smirked when he saw Renegade's power fail.
"My power of this shield doesn't require my energy, idiot. It's all in the mind." Rafael said as Renegade growled and slammed his fists against the shield again.
"Give her back you bastard!" He yelled as Rafael smirked.
"You're part of the Avengers aren't you?" Julian asked as Rafael scoffed.
"Like I'd be apart of that." Rafael said in disgust as Donovan and Julian looked at him confused.
"Whose side are you on?" Donovan asked as Rafael smirked.
"Mine." He said as Renegade growled at him. "Well, it's been fun. I'll see you around Black." Rafael said before letting his shield drop. Renegade lunged at him, but he fazed away with Alana before he could grab him.
"Alana!" Renegade yelled as he smashed his fists against the concrete.
"Don't worry. We'll find her." Julian said putting his hand on Renegade's shoulder.
"I'm going to make sure of it." Renegade said determination blazing in his eyes.
(A/N): Drama! Don't you love it? What do you guys think of Lilac and Shade having a lemon together? No or Yes?
