A/N: Since today is National Tickle Day, I couldn't resist doing a Shadamy tickle fic either, although I had to throw Cream and Vanilla into the mix, too.
Shadow the Hedgehog awoke from a nap in his room at Rouge the Bat's mansion. While he technically didn't need to sleep, he felt relaxed after sleeping in a nice warm bed. However, as soon as he became aware that he was restrained to the bed, he became anything but relaxed:
"Hey, what the…WHO DID THIS TO ME!?"
Usually, being the Ultimate Life Form, Shadow could easily break out of any restraint or prison cell, but these…these were clearly no ordinary restraints. No matter how hard he tried, though, he couldn't break free of these.
"Whoever did this, let me go! LET ME GO!"
"Hello…Shadow."
Shadow looked over to the side of his bed and saw his girlfriend Amy Rose with a devious smile on her face. Also present were Cream the Rabbit and her mother Vanilla.
"Amy, why am I shackled to the bed, and more to the point, WHY can't I break free?"
Amy giggled. "Oh, Rouge had these special handcuffs from her job at G.U.N. that can subvert Chaos energy."
Shadow growled. "I presume you three have a good reason for this trickery."
"Don't worry, Mr. Shadow!" said Cream. "We're not going to hurt you!"
"Then why did you restrain me against my will?"
Vanilla smiled. "Amy, Cream, I think we'd better tell Shadow why we've restrained him."
"OK!"
Amy and Cream climbed atop the bed, while Vanilla moved in closer.
"Happy National Tickle Day, Shadow!" said Amy.
"Amy…AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"So you ARE ticklish!" Amy giggled. "Oh, this is going to be fun!"
"NO IT'S NOT! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"What's wrong, Mr. Shadow?" said Cream. "Don't you like being tickled by three girls?"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I DON'T LIKE BEING TICKLED!"
"But Shadow, doesn't it feel good to laugh?" asked Vanilla.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THIS DOESN'T FEEL GOOD!"
"Then why are you laughing, silly?" asked Amy.
"SHUT UP, AMY! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Mr. Shadow, it's not very nice to tell people to shut up!" said Cream.
"I DON'T CARE! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Then maybe we should intensify the tickles," said Vanilla.
"NO NO NO! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Wow, who knew you were so ticklish?" said Amy.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ROUGE, HELP!"
"Sorry, but Miss Rouge isn't here to help you, Mr. Shadow!"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHY!?"
"Because we love you, Shadow. Now Amy, Cream, please take off Shadow's shoes."
"OK!"
"Uh-oh!"
Amy and Cream proceeded to take off Shadow's Hover Shoes…or at least Cream tried to:
"Miss Amy, how do I get this shoe off?"
"Simple: you just twist the bracelet on his ankle like this."
"Got it! Thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
Shadow blushed. "Girls, please don't tickle my…AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Don't tickle your what?" said Amy.
"MY FEET! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"But Mr. Shadow, we have to tickle your feet!" said Cream. "It's part of the rules of tickling!"
"NO YOU DON'T! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Then perhaps you'd enjoy this." Vanilla began tickling Shadow behind the knees.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THAT'S SO TICKLISH!"
"Tickle tickle TICKLE!" said Amy.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! NO TICKLES!"
"Yes tickles!" said Cream!"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! STAHP!"
"No Shadow, we're not stopping until we feel like it," said Vanilla.
"I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Oh, will you…Tickles the Hedgehog?"
"I'M NOT TICKLES! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"But you sound like Tickles!" said Cream.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! PLEASE! I GIVE UP!"
Everyone stopped tickling Shadow.
"Now Shadow, we'll stop tickling you, but you must repeat these things…" said Vanilla.
"What?"
"First of all, you have to say 'I enjoy being tickled by pink girls'!" said Amy.
"WHAT!? NO! I'm not gonna say that!"
"OK!"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! OK! OK! I ENJOY BEING TICKLED BY PINK GIRLS!"
Amy and the others stopped.
"Now you have to say 'being tickled is one of my favorite things ever'!" said Cream.
"Being tickled is one of my favorite things ever."
"Now, please say 'a woman gets to decide if and when I should be tickled'," said Vanilla.
"A woman gets to decide if and when I should be tickled."
"Good boy!"
Amy, Cream and Vanilla undid Shadow's restraints, and he slowly sat up and then put his socks and shoes back on.
"I swear, if you three weren't among my favorite girls in the world, I would've…"
Amy hugged Shadow. "Would've what?"
"Oh…never mind. Still, as overwhelming as being tickled was, it felt good to laugh like that."
"See? Laughter is good for you!" said Cream.
Vanilla sat down next to Shadow on the bed. "If you ever want to do this again, please say so!"
Shadow shrugged and smiled. "Ah, I guess it was fun…"
Amy, Cream and Vanilla all hugged Shadow at the same time. Even if they had weird ideas about fun, he wouldn't have had it any other way.
Criticism is gold. Negativity and nitpicking are pyrite.
