Chapter 7: An electric shock...

Shadow pulled back and bounded next to a shock-filled Silver, Roxxii turned around to face Shadow and tilted her head to the side before smiling.

"WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR GAMES!" Shadow was trying not to blush any more than he was, but failed badly considering Silver was now out of his shock and crying with laughter at Shadow's now priceless face. "Shut up you idiot."

Silver just looked at Shadow and then to Roxxii who spoke next. "It's not a game and pink really suits you." with that Silver was gone again, he couldn't help but laugh, he didn't fancy Shadow turning on him but Roxxii was making fun of him without even realising.

"WHAT!" Shadow was furious.

Roxxii smiled and waved. "Aw, your so cute."

"I'M NOT CUTE."

"You're right, your adorable."

Shadow launched himself at Roxxii, she stepped to the side and watched Shadow skid to a halt then grab hold of her neck. "BE careful, someone might just accidentally hurt you on purpose." she put her arm on his wrist, which was threatening but not strangling.

"And if they did, you would come to my rescue because you kissed back for a second or two."

He let go of her and turned his back. "We have a job to do. Stop pushing your luck hedgehog."

Roxxii and Silver followed Shadow around the hill disguised base till he came to an air vent. "This would be the best way in." Shadow pulled he vent off with one yank and turned to Roxxii. "Silver first, then you and I'll take the back."

"Yeah the back of me." Shadow growled at her and again she just smiled that cute little innocent smile as Silver got in.

"Women first."

"off you go then."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing." she giggled, Shadow picked her up by the waist and shoved her in, when he heard a few bangs, rolls and an "OW!" coming from both of the 'vent-hogs' he got in. after a while of crawling in an awkward silence Roxxii finally spoke again. "You know, I hope you two haven't eaten today."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Silver asked.

"Well the more weight you two put on the most likely this vent is going to cave in!"

"And what about you?" Silver stopped this time leaving Roxxii on one of the vents, fiddling with the lock.

"I'm a girl we hardly weigh anything and if we do it's because of our chest, unlike guys we wash and take care of ourselves."

"Oh, really."

"Yes Silver, really, you know moisturisers, fizzy balls for the bath. Actually, when we're done here remind me to give you a 'LUSH' bath, since you two obviously have no idea what fun and how colourful baths can be."

Shadow glared. "Remind me not to remind you of this day. EVER."

Roxxii shuffled round awkwardly then put her finger in shadows face and took a breath to talk and failing to do so as the vent collapsed. Shadow went to grab her hand but didn't risk exposing them all. They heard a thump as she hit the ground and Silver let out a grunt as he shuffled around. "Don't make any noises when we're in a vent together." Shadow whispered.

He looked at Shadow then looked down at the hedgehog on the floor. "Now who's the heavy one."

Shadow shook his head 'i'm surrounded by idiots.' was all he could think of, he looked at the lock she had been fiddling with then looked down and noticed she had fell into the main control room where Eggman was.

"Ah, yes I remember you, you've arrived a little earlier than I wanted you to but now is fine."

"Is this not the way to Dior?"

"Excuse me?"

"Your excused." She waved her hands uncontrollably, Shadow again shook his head 'What is with that?' the two hedgehogs in the vent watched carefully as Eggman approached Roxxii's words.

"I don't need to be excused hedgehog."

"Then why say it human."

"Your worse than Sonic."

"And your worse than my tempermental garden fountain."

"Robots attack."

Shadow and Silver jumped out of the vent at that point to help out.

"It's about time jeez, guys are so hard to trust, they actually wait till you in danger before helping you when they could have helped you before you got into trouble."

"Yeah well, your heavy." Was Silver's come back.

"You take that back."

"No!"

"TAKE IT BACK!"

"WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP." Shadow shouted as the robots came over. They noticed they where surrounded by only a few.

"Ok, since guys are so useless, I'll take the twenty on the left, you two share the twenty on the right."

"How do you know how many there are." Shadow asked.

"I don't, they keep moving so I can't count."

The three split into sections taking their own set of robots. Roxxii turned and blew one of the robots up next to her forgetting the blast and going flying. She rubbed her head and slowly got up wobbling. She went forwards to hit a robot but felt a sharp pain in her neck and past out hitting the ground hard. Shadow hit a robot and noticed her fall.

"ROXXII!" he started making his way over to her only to be stopped by more robots.

"ROBOTS, KEEP THEM BUSY AND BRING THE GIRL TO ME." the robots did as said, and Shadow kept attempting to chaos control but failed. Shadow was getting pissed. He took off his rings as he watch Eggman's robot place her in a machine. The rings pinged as they hit the floor and Shadow panted fast as a fire wall surrounded him, he zoomed around destroying all the robots he touched, he stopped in front of Eggman who flipped a switch sending shock waves to Roxxii causing a painful scream as Shadow's eye's began to get an unfamiliar glassy effect...

"I told her from the beginning she was next." Eggman laughed.

(The power Shadow used was in the Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 game, end of Shadow's story.)

Cliff hanger, next chapter soon hopefully. I've started college so chapters might take a while to up-load from now on but I'll do my best.

R&R please.
