Sonic was very firm on wanting to explore further into this Work in Progress game that Mephiles seemed to be working on. You hoped it was his will to solve the problem at hand rather than his ego of wanting to be the main character that made him this interested. However, you trusted Tails and Knuckles to focus on the presented issues.

You let them argue, and went back outside the room to stare out into the fiery openness. From Sky to soil, it was no surprise... That nothing had changed. A deep sigh escaped your lips as you rested your head on a piece of concrete, and continued to look out at fire danced in the distance.

A quick glance downwards, nothing. Another upwards, ehh...

"God I just want To LEAVE." You threw your hand out into the air expecting to punch something. A wave of dust flew past you, giving some motion to your punch. Your eyes narrowed at your extended fist, watching as the particles fell. (E/c) eyes adjusted to the light and focus in front of you. A small dot, that soon fell... But beyond you, it seemed to now be moving.

"What the..." You proceeded to look past your arm, unfocusing your vision on the dust and on the distance.

Those dots were moving. It was a mix of black, red, and white.

Shadow and Rouge.

They were still on the ground level, patrolling the streets. Perfect.

Twisting around, you noted that Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails were still captivated with their own conversation. Surely Team Dark would be more serious about getting home.

With a fake cough, you yelled out to your lost trio and prepared your sarcastic voice, "Oh wow! Would you look at that? Rouge and Shadow are right below us?! I'm just going to go see what thEy FoUnD."

And of course when nobody seemed to notice, you shrugged and jumped onto the railing.

"Fastest way down? DOWN!"

You threw out your arm and extended your claws, racking into the concrete as you plummeted down from the high building. Hot wind raced across your face as the distance between you and a crushing death came ever so rapidly closer.

. . . . .

"Hmm... got a nice green glowy thing you got there, Rouge?" Shadow would say off camera. But, was still pacing close by to his ally.

For you see, within the bat's delicately gloved hands was (definitely not actually) an emerald green weed gem. It slowly pulsated with high energy as Rouge held it.

"It's weed, obviously." She devilishly smirked, admiring the previous item in her possession. "I was hiding it from Knuckles. He wanted it soooo~ bad. Did you see the look on his face?"

The sneaky bat continued to gawk and adore at the weed gem, even raising her arms up as if praising it to the sun.

"I'd like to see the look on your face >:)"

In an instant, the chaos (weed) emerald disappeared from her hands! Rouge frantically looked around as it was snatched from her weary possession, until finally, she looked up.

You had snatched up her precious item, and stayed suspended from a downed and broken powerline, one foot and one arm on the pole itself for balance as your other leg hung loosely and your free hand held the emerald.

"Well well well, I'm glad to see you again (Y/n)~-"

"EWW, NO. If I give you your stupid weed back will you stop simping or whatever you're doing?" You cut her finished sentence short as your face contorted into a discomforted and annoyed expression.

The bat nodded, suspiciously, in agreement and caught the gem that was tossed to her. Jumping down the final 5 or so feet to the ground, you were met with Shadow.

Unamused as always and not interested in this little romance that emanated from Rouge. Speaking of emanating.. He would add that, "Probably good to give it back anyways, it might be irradiated. So you might be slowly developing death."

Now paired up with Shadow, you walked wise by side in silence as Rouge continued to talk to herself and reassure her love for this weed, this one in particular, was justified to have in her possession. "That's fine- we're all going to die anyways."

"What is that?" Your attention was soon brought to layers of scrap metal, a unique change of color lay beneath it. Rustic red and a surprisingly yellow. A robot.

"Looks like a weird cow or something-"

"Dumbass, it's a robot." You walked up to it, placing a hand on the main chassis and swiping off the dirt and dust covering its surface. You had uncovered a nameplate, with symbols and letters that even made Shadow surprised.

"That's not any robot- that's Omega. He's alive and well back home." The dark hedgehog approached and knelt down as well, as if searching for more information on what had happened to their Team Dark ally.

"I'm sorry..." you couldn't help but say, feeling for the solemn sadness that came from learning of your loved one's death. If he even called Omega that- you know what, you didn't think Shadow even loved anyone.

"Well, what if we, like, put weed in it- we can make it wood good?" Rouge would now be standing over the corpse of Omega, having stashed said weed away somewhere somehow.

Both you and Shadow slowly turned to the bat, your eyes half closed in irritated in how absolutely observed that sounded...

"No."

"Also what the fuck is that grammar, Rouge?" You added.

"You won't even try it?Just try my idea for once Sonic! Oup- Shadow. Fuck." Rouge threw a hand over her face and twirled around to shield herself from the rising backlash coming her way. She had realized her mistake, but it was too late. "I'm sorry that I'm bad with names."

Shadow slowly rose from Omega, and refused to turn to Rouge. His eyes burned like the hells fires of this world, and you could tell, he was agitated as fuck. As the confrontation began, you couldn't help but smile at the thought that, if Rouge was about to get her ass beat, you would laugh.

"This is the last time you confuse me with that blue asshole-" A fist formed in Shadow's hand as he looked to the ground, agonized. "You did it once before, you did it again.. You did it at our wedding, Rouge!"

You. audibly. gasped. Shadow really was capable of love. What the fuck. Rouge continued to stand around embarrassed while you laughed hysterically, as the dark hedgehog rapidly stomped away.

Will they find a way back home? Will (Y/n) ever let Shadow live down the fact he almost got married!? Finds out on the next NOW.
