Shadow woke up with Silver on top of him again, the pushed him away and stretched then he walked down stairs.

Silver looked around and hid under the bed until they changed their minds about taking him t the vet.

(That animal doctor will stab me and kill me! I don't wanna die!) Silver whimpered.

Maria was already down stairs by the time that Shadow got there, he went over to his food bowl to eat.

"Hi Shadow, are you ready to go to the vet?" Maria asked as she picked him up.

Shadow growled because he was eating and she interupted his time.

"Aw, you'll be fine after you get a shot." Maria replied.

Shadow wanted to finish eating. Maria finally let hom go and he rushed over to his bowl again and continued to eat.

"Hey, where's Silver? Isn't he supposed to be down for breakfast too?" Maria asked as she went up stairs to look for him.

Silver saw her feet, he knew it was Maria, but he was still under the bed looked scared. He didn't want to go to the vet, he was too weak for it.

"Silver? Come on out now. Your going to have breakfast before you go." Maria said as she spotted him under the bed.

As she reached for him, he bit her hand.

"Ow. Silver, I better clean my hand off before it gets infected." Maria sighed as she went to the bathroom.

Silver was still under the bed hiding.

(I bit her, I didn't mean to. I hate the vet, if I have to go then god the hedgehog, please save me after my shots.) Silver sighed.

Maria came back and grabbed Silver and dragged him into her arms, Silver looked up at her and howled.

"Your going to miss breakfast, Shadow is waiting for you." Maria reminded him.

Silver sighed as she took him down stairs.

Shadow sat there until Silver was down stairs eating.

(Ha! The vet is not as scary as you think it is, your such a shoe brain! One shot is all we're both getting and that's it!) Shadow hissed.

(But they will stab me so hard with it and then I will die!) Silver whined.

Shadow let out a hiss of annoyace and continued to wash himself, Silver continued eating.

Chadly was still getting ready and dressed to take them to the vet with Maria.

As Silver finished his last bites of food he walked over to Shadow and whined.

Shadow hissed and moved towards the table.

(Silver furball! You don't know anything, the vet won't kill you! You are such an idiot!) Shadow sneered.

Silver tilted his head to one side.

(Why do you always call me a shoe brain!) Silver hissed.

(Because you are one! You never think about the positive side! Your also too negative!) Shadow growled and clawed at Silver.

"Oooooooow!" Silver wailed, a few claw marks were on his side.

(That's what you get you little furball!) Shadow hissed and went up stairs with Maria.

Silver hid under the table and sighed. He licked his small scars and whined. Shadow was beginning to hate him now.

(What did I do to deserve this? I'm a shoe brain, I'm stupid, and I can't even learn. Why is Shadow so smart? Am I smart too? I guess I'm a weak werehog for now.) Silver thought.

"Hey guys, are you ready to go?" Maria asked and Shadow followed her down stairs.

Silver came out of his hiding spot and whined. Chadlycame down and they took the werehogs to the car.

Silver saw the nice yellow car, he liked it. Shadow hissed at the color, he liked black cars better.

"Okay get in." Chadly said as Maria grabbed Shadow and Silver and got in the car.

Chadly was in the front seat, as he got his seat belt on, the car moved. He drove past lots of places, Silver and Shadow looked out of the window and saw stores.

Maria looked out of the window too, she smiled at Silver and Shadow.

Chadly stopped the car finally, they were at the vet.

Silver whined but Shadow hissed so that Silver was silent, he didn't want any trouble when they got there.

"Hello, and what do we have here? Dogs?" The animal nurse asked.

"No, there werehogs." Chadly corrected her.

"Uh, okay then." She replied with a funny smile. She thought he was crazy.

"This is Shadow and the other one right here is Silver." Chadly introduced them.

Silver still hated the vet and he tried to run, but Maria caught him in time. Shadow look annoyed.

"Okay, bring Shadow over here and he will get his shots." The animal nurse said as Chadly placed Shadow on the animal desk.

"He's getting one shot for now." Chadly corrected her again.

"Okay." She replied as she took out a needle and pressed it on Shadow's back and gently pressed the needle in him.

Shadow didn't howl or whine. He was perfectly calm.

"Okay, bring Silver over here." She said as she let Shadow go and he ran back to Maria.

Silver whined and howled like crazy.

"Hey, no! Calm down, I haven't even started yet. Chadly help me, hold him down." The nurse panicked as he helped her.

Silver couldn't move, but he still continued to whine and howl, as she pressed the needle in him, Silver stopped moving and closed his eyes. He was hoping for life, he was worried.

"Uh, did you put Silver to sleep with this shot?" Chadly asked as he noticed Silver's eyes were closed.

"No, this is the flu shot. Why?" She asked.

"Silver looks like he's sleeping." Chadly replied.

Silver finally opened his eyes and felt his body again, he was so afraid that he went numb. Shadow hissed again and walked over to him as the nurse let him go.

(What in the heck Silver! Your so stupid!) Shadow hissed in annoyance and clawed his ear.

(Ow! God darn it Shadow! I'm sick of your mess!) Silver was about to attack Shadow but Maria picked them up and they were headed to the car.

Chadly was driving back to the house. Silver and Shadow hissed at each other the whole way there.

"You two stop it!" Chadly shouted as they both froze and stared at him then they both walked away and went up stairs.

(Hahahaha! Your still a shoe brain!) Shadow laughed as Silver attacked him, he clawed at Shadow until Shadow was bleeding.

Shadow closed his eyes, he wasn't dead. But he was injured by Silver's clawing.

(What have I done?) Silver whined as he back away.

Maria came in and saw Silver next to Shadow, she noticed Shadow was bleeding.

"Oh Silver, what did you do this time?" Maria asked as she picked Shadow up and took him the bathroom.

Silver hid under the bed again, he was guilty and now Shadow will hate me forever.

(I guess my dream from the other night wasn't true. We can get along to keep Maria happy, Shadow will attack me and not notice me at all.) Silver whined with a few tears coming out of his eyes.

Shadow walked out of the bathroom and licked his wonded chest and walked towards Maria's room.

(I guess Silver didn't mean it. But I still think he's a shoe brain.) Shadow thought.

Maria came into her room to look for Silver, he was under the bed.

"It's okay Silver, I'm not mad at you." She said as Silver didn't want to come out ever again.

Shadow yawned and went to bed that night while Silver slepted under Maria's bed for the night.

Silver was dreaming again, and this time it wasn't a good dream. He was lost in a place called Confusion of Time, Silver was waiting for Shadow in his dream. He sat there until Maria had a knife and stabbed him, Silver felt his heart leave his life.

Silver woke up with a howl and looked around, then he fell asleep again.

Shadow noticed his howl and looked at him, but he was too late to hiss out a word to him, so he went back to sleep.

Maria heard him howl, but she was still sleeping.

Chadly was typing up a report for his job, he was up until 11:00 P.M then he was in bed.

Silver was still worried about Shadow losing his faith in friendship.

What will he do to keep their friendship alive?
