In the coldness of the No zone prison, Zonic made his rounds. The solemn expression he wore masked his frustration and anger he held. The warden has been moving to make things "better" for the prison in his opinion. In Zonic's opinion, it was a horrible idea.

The idea of prisoners rehabilitated in a home of an officer was the worst idea he ever made. Not to mention the danger to innocent people if they got loose.

"Well, well, well~ Look who came to visit~," a voice purred. Zonic inwardly groaned. "Scourge...," he said, frowning slightly. The scarred hedgehog grinned from his empty cell, Smalls having been moved to another.

"You seem tense handsome, penny for your thoughts?~," he asked, gently leaning on the bars of his cell.

"No.," he said simply, continuing to walk along the catwalk. "Such a cold shoulder~," he smirked. Zonic broiled on the inside, wishing this hedgehog would stop flirting with him already.

He continued on, ignoring the soft sound of protest as he left the hedgehog behind.

Zonic slammed the door to the break room closed. Some place he rarely entered. "Rough day?," Zails asked, sipping some coffee he rewarmed. He grunted in response. Taking a seat silently. "Guess so huh?"

"Zobotnik is going to kill everyone.," he said, sliding off his visor and resting it on the table. "I know Zonic, but what can you do. His word is final."

"Doesn't mean I have to like it."

"Then you won't like the fact that he's making a cop and inmate pair up later tonight." "Seriously?" "Yep.," Zails said, taking a sip," Everyone's trying to keep on his good side so they won't be choosen."

"Whoo boy...," Zonic rubbed his face tiredly. "This is gonna suck isn't it?"

"Yep."

"...Zails..."

"Hmm?"

"Remember me before hell breaks loose."

"Don't be dramatic."

"Can't help it, it's in my nature."

"So fight your nature."

Zonic huffed as he leaned back more," Easier said than done." The emeralds closed for a moment."Don't tell anyone."

"My lips are sealed."

About an hour later, Zonic was startled by an alarm. Sliding his visor on, he got the radio call. Prison yard fight. Getting up, Zonic rushed to the prison yard.

"Status?," he asked a rushing guard," Fist fight, no weapons yet found.," the guard replied. Zonic frowned when he saw the inmates pulled off one being. Scourge was at the bottom. "I'll kill you!," a dangerous looking badger screamed at the green hedgehog.

Zonic grasped Scourge's arm, tugging him up to his feet. A busted lip," Got here just in time hmm?," he muttered, flicking his wrist and letting a leash form on the control collar. "We're moving hedgehog." He said, giving a tug.

Frowning, the green hedgehog followed. Zonic moved down the back ways to the medical bay. Few cameras were there. "Concerned hedgehog?" Green smirked slightly, ignoring the slight cringe of pain in his ribs.

"Just for your life. Nothing more."

"Oh you so you do care~," he purred, a soft chuckle leaving him.

Zonic glanced up, no cameras were present.

He gave a harsh tug on his leash, causing the other the gag softly. Shoving him backward, Zonic slammed him against the wall. His knee between his legs and his face centimeters away.

"You must think you're funny, hmm?," he asked quietly, the other's face flushing and groaning softly. "You seem to like it~" he retorted quietly.

Zonic let his fingers slide beneath the collar and tugged it forward. The other moaning from the treatment. "You're seriously getting on my nerves." Zonic growled lowly. Green ears lowered slightly, his breath coming out in soft pants as his face flushed a dark red.

"Could you be anymore obvious?"

"What? I missed you...," green admitted softly, the two recalling the first meeting they had. Which lead to a more...pleasurable outcome.

Zonic shivered from the shy hand," We can't. I told you." "Please~," he practically whined," That's why you brought me the back way right?"

Zonic's jaw clenched," We can't, it's not safe. Later."

"You always say later!" Green started to raise his voice. Zonic pinned him harder against the wall," Be quiet." "Make me."

A growl was heard before peach crashed against tanned, Zonic's free hand roughly reaching up and tugging his shortened quills. The other groaning in response at the treatment.

Orange sleeved hands grasped his back with need. His leg wrapping up and around his waist and roughly rubbing against him.

The kiss broke, a small trail of saliva between them as they panted. Zonic moved, his teeth roughly biting the soft green neck.

"H-hah!~," he gasped, clinging onto him with need. His hand trailed from his hip to firmly grasping his tail and squeezing.

The excited mewl gave him shivers. "You've been really bad...," he said quietly against his neck. "Constantly making it difficult to work with your needs...reminding me every minute of everyday."

"Yeah?~" the green hedgehog tried to capture his lips again.

But Zonic smirked and scooted away. A whine of protest was heard. "To the medical bay," he said simply, continuing on his way down the hall with the hedgehog in tow. "Why do you punish me like this?," he whined slightly, hissing at the pain in his neck as he tugged again. "Well this IS a prison. There needs to be some form of punishment.," he said simply.

He huff of anger left him. Zonic just smirked on the inside. "Maybe I'll reward you for good behavior later~," he whispered softly.

Later, Zonic sat in the meeting room. Disinterested about the whole thing. But, internally he was at least glad he personally got Scourge to the medical bay without further...interruptions.

"And now...the moment I know all of you have been dying for," warden Zobotnik grinned, the guards and policemen shifting slightly," The guard and prisoner pair that will lead way to a new, experimental rehabilitation program!," he said with false cheerfulness.

"This is a load of barnacles...," a guard muttered to his partner. "Shh!," the partner said back with muffled laughter.

Zobotnik paused, purposely shuffling paper for effect. " Now then," he grinned slightly," The pair will be...," he paused again. "Zonic...and...Scourge," his grin seemed to grow. Zonic stared at him coldly.

Wonderful.

"There isn't an issue is there?," the warden asked, his grin seemingly growing wider.

"None at all.," he said through gritted teeth.

Walking angrily to the familiar cell, Zonic paused at that barred door. Scourge glanced up in surprise. "Miss me?"

" .," he ordered, Scourge sighing and slowly getting up," My, my...moody are we?~," he said smoothly.

The leash appeared, giving harsh tug out of the cell.

Yelping, Scourge had to jog to keep up with the angry hedgehog.

"What's up? You're never this rough.," he asked, slightly fearful. Zonic slowed his pace," You're a part of a new experimental rehabilitation program the prison is doing." Scourge blinked," R-really?," he asked cautiously, since previous programs were...twisted. "You'll be living with me and I will make you a model citizen."

Scourge stared for a moment before he grinned," Oh~ Really now?~," he purred softly. "Don't talk."

"Oh, yes sir~," he purred softly.

Zonic shoved him in the back of his cruiser, slamming the door shut as he angrily got into the driver's seat. Grumbling, he started the engine.

"So, what do you need to do with me?"

"Record your progress and send in a report weekly."

"Can you leave out intimate details."

"Sure, why not?" He said dully before it clicked.

"...You literally have no off switch."

"I can't help it if you turn me on so much."

A groan," That was horrible."

"Thank you~"

Scourge leaned forward, his grin never wavering," I look forward to what you plan for my punishments when I misbehave~ ROOMIE~," he purred into his ear.

"I'm going to destroy you."

"Kinky~ I love it~"

"Stop."

"Make me~"

"Oh you're just asking for it."

"You can't handle subtle."

Zonic sighed in response.

Scourge grinned," Will I be rewarded for good behavior?~," he asked. "Keep up the smart mouth up and I will actually destroy you."

"Maybe I want you to."

Zonic rolled his eyes," You'll be saying different when you can't move without limping or scooting around."

Scourge shivered visibly," I look forward to it~"

A hum was heard as Zonic turned into his home. "You'll be bed ridden when I'm done."

Scourge's eyes light up in excitement," Please do!"

Zonic frowned," Stop encouraging me."

"No. Fight me."

He roughly grasped the leashed and pulled him forward, the hedgehog flopping into the front seat. The car parked in the driveway. "You'll do as I say, won't you?"

"I guess~"

Zonic pulled again, tugging him out of the car. "Be a good pet and go up the stairs to the bedroom. Or else I'll manhandle you up there."

Scourge clung to his side immediately," DO IT."

Barely managing through the door, Zonic slammed it shut and scooped the other up. "You're going to regret this." He said as he marched up the steps to his room with the other in his arms. "No, I won't~," green purred softly.

And he didn't.~
