Chapter four: Rouge and Knuckles' Day. The start of the corruption...

Normal POV

"Well, what are we supposed to do?" Sonic asked. "I don't really know, we just have to keep the ring on the days that are assigned to us." Tails said. "So... anyone up for tacos?" Lisa asked. It earned a chorus of "YES!"s. "You guys go on ahead, I'm going to have this put on a necklace. That way I don't have to carry it around." Rouge said. "Why don't you just wear it? You know, on your finger?" Zero asked, a sarcastic tone in his voice. "Oh, go kiss your girlfriend." Rouge snapped back, as both Zero's and Mina's faces flushed a deep red. "IT'S TACO TIME!" Charge and Flash shouted, as they ran for the mexican restaurant, conveniently placed on the floor they were on, leaving the others in the dust. "Note to self." Drake said. "Do not come in between them and their tacos."

Later, after end of many tacos...

Flash walked out of the restaurant, face a little pale. Crystal was patting his back. "I told you that you shouldn't have eaten so fast." "I had to get 'em while they were (hiccup) still there." Flash said. "Where is Rouge? Don't you think-" Diamond was cut off. "We're back!" "They'd be back by now." She finished. "Look, now I got it on a gold chain necklace." She said, holding it up. Flash started to gaze deeply at it again. "You want the ring..." A voice said in his head, not sounding like his own though. "The ring will give you what you really want... Power. Just take it..." Crystal slapped him. "What? Huh?" "You perv! You were staring at Rouge's breasts!" "What? NO I WASN'T!" "Then what were you staring at?" "The ring. It calls out to me. It tells me-" Crystal cut him off. "Maybe you just ate too much, and now you are hallucinating." She said, patting his stomach, almost causing him to throw up. "Please don't do that again." Flash said weakly.

"And that, Shade, is why you don't eat that fast." Topaz said. "Why would I ever do a stupid thing like that?" He said, getting a death glare from Flash that seemed to gaze into his soul. "I mean... uh... Could happen to anyone..." He quickly looked away. "Charge was right to listen to me." Aqua said. "He's a good boy." She giggled, patting his head. "That was kinda cheesy." Alphose said. "Don't say cheese." Flash said weakly.

Later that night...

Flash woke up in his bed, he heard the voice calling him again. "It's the perfect time... Nobody will notice if you take the ring." He silently got out of bed, and walked across the hall, stopping in front of Rouge's door. 'Wait.' He thought to himself. 'What?' The other voice said. 'That's Rouge's room. I don't wanna go in there.' 'Why not?' '... It's Rouge's room. Rouge. Who knows what F***ed up stuff she has in there?' 'Aw, don't be a wuss. Just go in.' Flash nervously turned the knob, sighing in relief as he saw nothing out of the ordinary. Knuckles was sleeping in the same bed as Rouge. 'Well? Go get it.' The voice said. Flash nervously walked over to her, to see her turned on her side, ring not reachable. Flash slowly tried to reach for it, then she turned on her other side, chest down to the bed, ring untouchable. Flash thought to himself for a bit, then he had an idea. He got close to her ear... "Bzzzzzzzz" Flash made bee sounds, as Rouge swatted in her sleep, then turning over to face Knuckles. Flash was starting to get frustrated. Then he had another idea. He left the room... then came back with one of those claws attached to poles for grabbing things. He carefully slid it down towards the ring, and grabbed it. He took the ring in hand, and placed the claw down. But as he tried to get it off, suddenly, Rouge screamed and socked Flash in the face! "OW!" Flash backed away, hand covering his face, knocking him out of his trance. "Rouge looked around, examining her surroundings. "You hit me! And I'm BLEEDING!" Flash said as he ran out of the room.

"What's going on?" Knuckles asked. "Flash tried to take the ring and I punched him." Rouge said. "That's my girl." Knuckles said, as they both went back to sleep.

Well, there was the fourth chapter, Hope you enjoyed it. R&R.

Flash: NOT FUN!

Shut it. Anyways, I have some bad news. This week, we were supposed to have Seth on this. But unfortunately, We did not receive and questions for Seth. So, we decided we will have Seth, Charge, and Aqua for the next chapter.

Flash: So... No questions this chapter?

I didn't say that. Just a few minor questions... Neo's Shadow asks: Flash, Where did your obsession with oreos come from?

Flash: From the very first time I had one, when I was 5, I loved them. THEY ARE ADDICTING! And that's where that child-like voice came from in the third chapter.

Ok... Crystal, do you have any obsessions? And if so, what are they?

Crystal: Well, as you might have guessed, I love freezing things... It's really fun. Also, I love sleepovers! I love playing ToD, and getting people humiliated. Just fun. So there isn't really any obsessions of mine, just some things I like doing a lot more than others.

Ok... Well, that was all the questions for this chapter. Here is the list of people that you can ask questions to in the next chapter:

Flash the Cat. (Mine.)

Crystal the Cat. (Mine)

Seth the Hedgehog. (Neo's Shadow)

Charge the Cat. (Charge the Cat.)

Aqua the Cat. (Charge the cat.)

And after the next chapter, our guests will be Alphose the Hedgehog and Drake the Hedgehog. (RJO)

Oh, and one more thing. You can ask questions every chapter, you are not limited to one question on one chapter, and the characters accept multiple questions.
