Shauna was sitting on the couch in her apartment, just watching some TV. It was a fine summers day and Shauna couldn't imagine a better day to be lazy in, as her job had been working her to the bone lately. However, Shauna couldn't help but feeling that something was missing.

Perhaps she was out of milk? Shauna walked over to the fridge to check, but alas the milk was there and with 3 weeks until the expiration date. Shauna couldn't feel happy with this nagging feeling in her gut.

It was just at that point that Shauna heard a knocking at the door. Shauna couldn't help but wonder who it could be. She wasn't expecting anybody at this time... perhaps this is what she was forgetting? She opened the door with a sense of mystery, wondering just who could be there.

When she opened the door she was greeted by 3 incredibly sexy women. Of course, being a pansexual, trangendered, anthropomorphic hedgehog made this quite the pleasant surprise for Shauna. It would be quite the red letter day if Shauna could somehow convince this trio to participate in a foursome. Nevertheless, she decided to talk to the people instead of just staring at them.

"Hello ladies, what can I do for you this afternoon?" said Shauna, with a wink.

"Are you the one they call 'Shauna'?" asked the big and green lady in a shrill sort of voice.

"Uh, yeah, of course I am hero and famous icon Shauna the Hedgehog!" said Shauna, trying to show off. However, admittedly, the shrill voice of the green one was definitely a big turn off.

"Great, we understand that you are the current legal guardian of a certain Miles Prower." said the smaller and purple one.

Suddenly Shauna remembered what had been nagging her brain for the day. It seemed all too obvious to her that she couldn't help but slap her forehead. Her drivers license was about to expire in a week. How could she get to work without a car? She immediately made an effort to leave.

"Hey, all this stuff is interesting and all, but I really need to jet!" said Shauna, trying to push her way past the ladies.

"Miss, this kid of yours went missing 3 months ago. Our detective agency, the Chaotix, has been hired to investigate the missing child. Are you sure you can't spare some time? After all, the police put you as their biggest suspect." said the big green one, whose name was Victoria, by the way (not like you asked)

"What do you mean Tails is missing? I thought he went to college?" said Shauna, still trying to move out of the doorway.

"Um, Miss, the child was 8 years old. How could he have possible gone to college." said Victoria.

"Look, I have no time for semantics. Can I just go?" said Shauna, who had finally managed to pry her way out of the crowd of women.

"Quick, she's making a break for it!" said Ester, the purple one.

They tried to give chase, but thankfully Shauna was still the fastest thing alive, so long as she had decided to wear her running shoes and not the high-heels. Unfortunately, she had not planned that one of them was a ninja and was jumped unexpectedly.

"Yeah, and don't even try to resist, unless you liked being stung!" said the small bee.

Now that Shauna had been captured, she was taken to the police station to be interrogated.

"Shauna the Hedgehog, huh? I never would've thought a person of such acclaim would be criminal scum... you make me sick." said the police officer.

"What are you talking about? I had nothing to do with the disappearance of whats his name." said Shauna.

"Well, you were the one responsible for his well being and now he's gone! Plus, we have no other suspects." said the police officer.

Shauna knew she wasn't responsible for Tails' disappearance, for she would've remembered something as big as that. However, she hadn't cared enough to remember what actually did happen to him.

"I don't know what to say officer. All I know is that you can't prove I had any involvement in Tails' disappearance, so I'm as good as free!" said Shauna with an arrogant swagger.

How wrong Shauna was. She was pinned in court later that day for extreme child negligence and sentenced to 3 years in prison.

Later that day, now in prison, Shauna was filed into her cell like an animal. She feared for the worst. Shaking and cold, she entered the cell. Now, sitting on the floor she began to cry. But this sad session soon ended as a cruel and dark voice rang out from the corner.

"So, I see the greatest rivalry in the world has come to this..." said the voice.

"E-eggwoman?" Shauna whimpered in a weak and trembling voice.

"What? Are you serious? You really think that you and her are greater rivals than us?" said the voice, getting angrier.

"Uhhhhh." Shauna stalled, trying desperately to think of something to say.

"No? Nothing?" said the voice.

"Nope, sorry." said Shauna

"Dammit, its me, Shadia!" said Shadia, stepping out of the shadows (pun intended).

"Oh yeah, how have you been?" said Shauna.

"Obviously pretty terrible since I'm in prison." said Shadia

"Oh yeah, what for?" asked Shauna

"Drunk driving, and you?" said Shadia

"Child negligence, all just because that stupid fox child i was supposed to take care of." said Shauna

"Haha! That is too rich. So that kidnapping I did really paid off didn't it?" said Shadia

"What? You were the one who kidnapped Tails?" said Shauna

"Are you serious? You didn't even remember that I kidnapped him?" said Shadia

"Sorry, I only remember things I care about really." said Shauna

Just as they were talking, footsteps could be heard from down the hallway.

"Hey you two, keep it down! Its after hours and you should be in bed ladies!" said an incredibly buff man. Shauna instantly recognized the man before him.

"Eamon, is that you? What are you doing here?" said Shauna

"I became a prison guard because it pays well and puts my incredibly muscular body to good use. After all, I have a family to feed." said Eamon.

"Look, can you help me out? I know how crazy you are for me so I'll give you a smooch if you just give me a mulligan on this one, please?" said Shauna, on her knees.

"Tough luck, wimp! After all the years of being brushed off by you, I finally decided to live my own life. Now I've settled down with a wife and our son!" said Eamon

"Are you sure you still won't let me out, just as friends?" pleaded Shauna

"No way madam, now go to bed." said Eamon

With Shauna's plan thwarted, she crawled into her uncomfortable bed. Looking for comfort, she turned to Shadia.

"Hey Shadia, is prison really as bad as they say?" said Shauna's

"No, not at all" said Shadia, and Shauna breathed a sigh of relief.

"Its actually way worse. In fact, I'd even prefer hell to this." concluded Shadia

"Darn it. I can't spend 3 years here, I need to be free! I can't believe I'm saying this, but we need to work together to escape!" said Shauna.

Shadia had to weigh the odds. Shadia only had one more week left on her sentence before she was free, but on the other hand she didn't know if she could handle one more week of the awful glop they called food in this prison. After a lot of deliberation, she had made a decision.

"OK Shauna, I'll do it. But its not because I like you or anything, lets not get mistaken here, faker!" said Shadia while blushing.

So they decided to begin their escape plans in the morning, although they may find a lot more than just freedom in the process...
