OK sorry for the wait it's not easy, i've decided to finish this story before uploading more just to warn you so it might be a while but it will also be easier because then I can just upload a new chapter every week , but here's another chapter.

And I was doing my GCSE's so i've finished them and school so the next 6 weeks or so are for stories.

Chapter 4: Silver's arrival.

The two hedgehogs made their way through the forest, shadow speeding ahead only showing his yellow flash of light while Roxxii skipped her way along holding Shadow up.

"Are you going to skip your way there and hold me up or are you going to run?"

Roxxii stopped and tilted her head to the side as she looked at Shadow. "I can run if you really want me to run but it's not as much fun, hey that rhymed!" Roxxii laughed.

Shadow watched her, she was so weird, the fact that she had power that she couldn't describe or understand was weird, the way she laughed and talked to herself was weird it's just a good job she's pretty.

"We're running so hold on." Shadow grabbed her hand and began running along with her, Roxxii put a quick step in it to keep up causing Shadow's speed light to change to a pale yellow with slight tints of sparks.

They ran for a while and eventually made it to Eggman's base, Shadow let go of Roxxii's hand and began looking through Rouge's files.

Roxxii stood there for about 10 seconds then she got bored, she began rocking on her toes to her heals continuously, and began giggling to herself. But, she got bored of that. She tilted her head and looked at Shadow, got bored of that. Roxxii looked around at her surroundings then walked over to a tree and began climbing it, she began talking to her self as she climbed, but that soon stopped as she reached the first branch. Heights really aren't Roxxii's thing. She made her way to the end of the branched when Shadow finally looked at where she was originally.

Shadow looked around for her desperately searching. "Come on I know your here you was making weird sounds a minute ago, Roxxii where are you?"

"UP HERE!" Roxxii called down to Shadow but not being very high, only made it louder for him. She began walking forwards and Shadow began getting annoyed.

"What the hell are you doing." Shadow couldn't yell in case it alerted robots and that's all he needed, some psycho in a tree and a bunch of weird ass robots.

"I don't like flying so i'm going to levitate!"

"Isn't that the same thing?"

"NO! It's not." With that Roxxii jumped out the tree and launched herself through the air. For about 5 seconds anyway, then she began falling. Shadow ran towards her ready to catch her not noticing the portal opening, he stood underneath her and held out his arms for her to fall into, she noticed and rolled her body over so she was facing him then held out her arms as well.

Lucky she wasn't screaming.

The portal got wider and something came out knocking right into Shadow and falling to the ground with him, Roxxii looked confused as she hit the ground head first.

"OWCHY, that's gonna leave a mark in the morning. I'm not going that again, ok i'm not going to lie, I probably will." Roxxii pulled her body up so she was on her knee's and rubbed her head. The portal closed quickly startling Roxxii causing her to turn around.

"Damn! What the hell is..."

"Ow." The hedgehog stood up, that was the first time he had ever failed a landing.

"SILVER?" Shadow looked at the Silver hedgehog who was now facing him.

"Sorry Shadow, I didn't know you was going to be there." Silver looked at him then walked over to Roxxii and held out his hand for her, she looked at it in amazement then took his hand creating a spark between their hands, Silver backed away allowing Roxxii to fall back on to her backside.

Silver looked at his hand then at Roxxii who was now helping herself up while rubbing her back.

"What did ya drop me for?"

"Sorry."

Shadow looked at the two and watched Roxxii's face lighten up as she looked at him. "What was that all about?"

"I'm not too sure." Silver looked at Shadow who walked over to Roxxii.

"What are you doing her Silver?"

"Wow, his names Silver and he's a silver hedgehog, that's so cool!" Roxxii put a huge smile on her face, she was proud for stating the obvious.

"As usual. I'm here to stop something."

Shadow looked curiously at Silver unaware of how to react to the news, if he could be bothered to react at all.

Ok again short but maybe we can just call it a short story, with short chapters and yeah SHORT.

But sweet – R&R please.
