Her Birthday

Shadow, Rouge, Knuckles, and Omega is owned by SEGA

Fire the Shadow Chao and Midnight the Hedgefox, of course, belongs to me


It was a hot sunny day in mid-June a sexy hedgehog with red stripes going down his quills, arms, and legs and a tuff of white fur oh his chest was skating around in Westopolis looking for the perfect jewelry store. He was wearing nothing, but his white gloves with gold rings, his trademark hoverskates, a red Chaos Emerald armed, and his blue shades from Sonic Riders over his eyes. (A/N: Hey its a hot summer day, even the Ultimate Lifeform needs to shield his eyes)

Along with him was a cute little Shadow Chao, who had a cute evil smile on its face and a blue spike on top of its head. (A/N: Almost similar to the real Fire in my Dark Garden only without the smirk and wasn't at one time sick)

"Hey Shadow-Chan why are we looking for a jewelry store?" Fire asked.

"Ahh its Rouge's birthday today and I want to get her something nice." Shadow said.

"Is it because you want to tell her you love her." Fire taunted.

It was true as day, Shadow has had the biggest crush on Rouge ever since the Black Doom accident, but quickly hide it when he found out she and Knuckles were dating soon after. And besides Fire and Omega, Sonic also knew about Shadow's feelings for Rouge, much to Shadow's dismay. Don't worry, Sonic vowed to keep his problem and not tell anyone about Shadow's feelings with the help of a gun in Sonic's face full of ammo.

"Look she's with Knucklehead and besides those two are crazy for each other ever since Rouge stopped going after the Master Emerald." Shadow explained.

"So what? Rouge-Chan loves you and you know it. Quitters never win." Fire reminded.

"I wasn't quitting on winning Rouge from Knuckles." Shadow spat as they went in a store called Hell's Angel.

Hell's Angel was almost like a goth store, but it does have nice jewelry like gold watches, necklaces, and the brand new item, the diamond earring-necklace set. A friend of Shadow's actually works there and usually gives Shadow romance tips.

"Hey Midnight. How's life treating ya?" Shadow asked.

"Good, good." Midnight said.

Midnight was black and dark blue hedgefox and at the moment was wearing a white tank top, blue jean shorts, hoverskates similar to Shadow's, but in blue and without the rings, has a gold earring pierced in his right ear, and was glove-less and he also knew about Shadow's feelings for Rouge, dispite once having a crush on Rouge himself.

"Hi Midnight-Chan!" Fire shouted.

"Hey Fire. What ya looking for today Shad?" Midnight asked.

"A gift for Rouge." Shadow said as Midnight grinned.

"Well I know just the perfect gift for Rouge." Midnight said leaving and coming back with a box that held the diamond earring-necklace set.

"Whoa! Rouge-Chan will love it!!" Fire shouted.

"Rouge will indeed like it. I'm shocked she hasn't stole it yet." Shadow said as the two both knew how the ivory bat was when it comes to jewelry.

"Dispite it being located being in the bad part of town this shop has good security and besides she has to be ten times the thief she is today to steal from here." Midnight said smirking.

"Fire what do you think? Will I wow Rouge and be able to tell her I love her?" Shadow asked.

"Of course! Rouge-Chan will love you forever Shadow-Chan!!" Fire shouted.

"Okay I'll take it. How much?" Shadow asked.

"Free of charge. Rouge is like a sister to me and you're like the brother I never had. You and Rouge deserve to be happy." Midnight said.

"Thanks." Shadow said with a grin leaving.

"Bye Midnight-Chan!" Fire shouted following Shadow out the door.

In the apartment Rouge the Bat was on the couch in distress. This time she wasn't in her trademark skin tight suit, but in loose fitting cotton pants, a white Tee, no lip gloss, and her make-up was running down off her angelic face, on her lap was a tube of vanilla ice cream and a box of tissue. The day, which was supposed to be perfect, but turned into be a nightmare. She planned to be with Knuckles at Angel Island for the day when he broke up with her to be with Julie-Su, next a jewel she was planning to steal before meeting with Knuckles was already taken, and lastly, well I truthfully don't know how worst it could be for Rouge in this state.

"Comrade Rouge its okay really." Omega said.

"NO ITS NOT! MY PERFECT DAY IS RUINED!" Rouge cried blowing her eyes and eating a spoon full of ice cream.

"Comrade Rouge its not the end of the world." Omega said trying to cheer Rouge up, but at her state nothing will.

"YES IT IS!" Rouge cried.

"Comrade Rouge please for the son of Lucifer please stop crying!" Omega begged as he heard the door open just in time.

"Hey birthday girl. Whoa what happened?" Shadow asked coming in.

"Rouge-Chan you look a wreck." Fire said in surprise.

"Knuckles broke up with her." Omega informed.

"He what!?" Shadow snapped making a mental note of killing Knuckles before the day is out.

"ON MY PERFECT DAY TOO!" Rouge cried blowing her nose.

"Could I talk to her alone?" Shadow asked.

"Sure." Omega said as he and Fire left.

"Rouge shh. Calm down. Tell me what happened." Shadow whispered hugging Rouge.

"I was planing to go to Angel Island and be with Knuckles. He promised we'd do something special for my birthday then he told me he wanted to break up with me. And before that I was planning to steal this lovely jewel from the museum when I heard those Babylon Rogues took it before I even got there. Now I'm gonna get terribly fat!" Rouge cried eating another spoon full of ice cream.

"There, there. Calm down. Its not the end of the world. There's better jewels out there and Knuckles isn't all that hot anyway. You're way too beautiful for a rat like him. You deserve way better than that." Shadow said whipping Rouge's tears.

"You think so?" Rouge sobbed as Shadow put the tube of ice cream on the table.

"I know so. I got you something for your perfect day and trust me you will have a perfect day now." Shadow said handing Rouge the box.

"Oh Shadow its beautiful! Its the diamond earring-necklace set from Hell's Angel. How were you able to afford it?" Rouge asked.

"Midnight let me have it free of charge." Shadow explained as Rouge hugged him tightly.

"Shadow its beautiful. I love it." Rouge said as Shadow gave her small, passionate kiss.

"I love you Rouge the Bat." Shadow whispered.

"I love you too Shadow the Hedgehog." Rouge whispered back as he gave her another kiss.

"Get cleaned up and dress. We're going out tonight. My treat." Shadow said as Rouge smiled and got out the couch.

"Oh Shadow thank you! Thank you! I'll be ready in an hour." Rouge said leaving.
