She walked numbly down the stairs, not focused in, and acting like she was in a whole other world. She might as well have been. The wall caught her a little as she staggered and then someone else held her steady.
"Kayla, what's wrong?" Shadow asked.
She suddenly burst out in tears, "Get away! Leave me alone!"
"What?" he was shocked.
"I-I...I'm breaking up with you!" she ran down the stairs sobbing and out the door.
She stumbled through the forest, not wanting to see his face. Soon she was just a red blur, until she reached a hiding place, and hid herself. Sobbing, she buried her face in her knees, and just sat there.
"I see you got the job done," she glared at the shadowy figure at the mouth of the cave.
"Where's Tails?" she demanded.
He threw something at her and she saw that it was Tails, "There."
She stood up, "I hate you."
He smiled his toothy grin, "Aw...don't be like that babe. Once I kill your boyfriend...or should I say ex-boyfriend, you'll be all mine, this planet seems nice for the picking too."
"Shadow," she gasped, "Don't you dare!"
He threw her back against the wall, "Yes, I think that his defenses will be a little down, don't you? After all, it's been fifty years since he loved."
She turned away, "Leave me alone! I'm going to apologize to him!"
"No, you're staying here," he grinned and she felt something cold and ciruclar wrap around her wrist.
"What!" she jerked against the shackle, "No!"
He chuckled under his breath and made sure Tails was locked up too, "Have fun."
With that he walked out and she jerked against the restraint, "No! Shadow! Ugh!"
She finally gave up and sunk down, with her arm above her head, "This is great."
"Ugh...where am I?" Tails muttered, waking up.
"Tails, are you okay?" she asked worriedly.
"Yeah I'm fine...Scourge broke into my workshop," he scowled, "What happened?"
"He made me break up with Shadow, now he's going to try to kill him," she began to cry again, "I didn't have a choice, he threatened to kill you."
He fumbled with something, "Hang on, I think I can get us out of here."
He pulled out a skeleton key that he'd fashioned and unlocked his shackle, "You have a key?"
"Yeah, we get in a lot of sticky situations," he unlocked her's, "You'd better hurry."
Without another word she ran off, looking for Shadow, and looking to kick Scourge to the moon.
I hate him, I hate him, I hate him...:( Gr...I'm going to hate him even more soon...Read, Review, and Enjoy!
