When class ended Shadow was by Rouge locker ready to meet her ...But the white bat never showed up.
Something wasn't right, he just had that feeling. And that feeling was heading his way!
Glory smiled as she approached the dark furred hedgehog " hello Shadow" she greeted " my ,my where you girlfriend?" She asked.
" That's something I liked to know" he said while giving her a glare " out with it I know you're behind this!" he accused.
The brunette hedgehog gave a fake gasp " I never" she told him " you accuse me of doing something so horrible" she turned away covering her face " I thought we had something special between you and I" she took off crying making Shadow looked like a horrible jerk.
Glory didn't get far for she hid behind the corner and looked back to see the students glare and say rude remarks about Shadow.
" Well I know one thing Shadow" she watched the students called him hurtful names " you're never going to see that slut ever again!"
...
Perci was heading to her next class when she was pushed harshly by some other students making her drop her books.
As the purple bandicoot got to her knees to pick them up Glory came over to her " you do know why they push you right?" she asked
Perci ignored her and got back to her feet " sorry don't have time for such trivial matters" she responded as she walked past her.
"There you go acting all smart and knowing... No wonder Knuckles is getting tired of you".
That made the bandicoot drop her things again. What did she say? The lavender fur female turned now facing the brunette hedgehog, Glory smirked as she approached the bandicoot.
" It's a shame really" she continued " I overheard him talking about you, saying how you not pretty and too smart form him to handle"
The brunette hedgehog patted Perci on the shoulder " don't feel to bad, at least you knew what it was like to feel fake love".
With that the hedgehog walked away leaving the lavender bandicoot to feel hurt by what she said about her relationship with the red echidna.
...
" Hey Silver have you seen Perci?" Knuckles asked the grey hedgehog who was with Blaze " I've not seen her since the start of the day".
" No sorry buddy" Silver told him " normally she in math class with me but some reason she didn't show up today"
" I'll go check the nurse's office" Blaze offered and gave Silver a kiss on the cheek before heading off.
" I'll go see if Shadow has seen her" Silver told the red echidna and took off in the opposite direction.
Knuckles was about to go in a third direction when Glory snuck up on him. " G..Glory?" the echidna asked feeling confused. The brunette hedgehog smirked.
" Hi Knuckles" she spoke " how are you today?"
Knuckles knew Glory was bad news, his friends told him countless of times not to talk with her, but he found it to be very strange that she was here speaking with him.
" I..I got to..."
" Go where? See Perci?" She asked, her smile turned into a frown " I don't think you should" she turned away from him " you may not believe this but... Today i overheard her say how she's tired of babysitting you".
" She what?" Knuckles asked, This wasn't the Perci he knew " What do you mean?"
" I'm sorry Knuckles but your girlfriend is annoyed by you, constantly asking her to tutor you, you understanding anything even after going over 2 hours a day, she exhausted from it.
she turned back facing him and patted him on the shoulder.
" Try to understand you need to give her space, if you keep hovering all over her she going to explode, so I watch out if I were you".
The brown furred hedgehog walked away form him, under her fake empathy face she was grinning like a cat. That should be enough of a distraction among them to make Shadow forget all about Rouge!
yup! Glory is stirring trouble to distract them from Rouge's sudden disappearance.
Now for Perci. We don't know much about her character aside that one episode with Sonic boom but in this I'm writing her as a insecure bandicoot who's also a smart student but not confident in her looks.
As for Knuckles... He's gullible... And that is all.
Next chapter... Will the group realise it was all a set up?
