DISGUISE

Previously...

Rouge and Shadow arrive at G.U.N. Fortress, where they find Ceejay (Rouge's father) distraught over his missing wife, Rain.

The team is discussing their next move. Rouge offers to make hot drinks for everyone, which Colonel Abraham Tower agrees to, suggesting they prioritize strategy and coordination.

Vinson reveals that he and Arien have hacked into CCTV cameras and located Rain, who is being held captive in a jail cell.

The team reacts with shock, anger, and worry.

Colonel Tower instructs Rouge and Shadow to prepare hot drinks while the team develops a rescue plan.

"This has gone from bad to worse, Dad is the team Strategist but he's useless at the moment when he's sulking like that." Rouge crossed her arms as she and Shadow were walking towards the Officers' Quarters.

"Isn't there like two more special operations teams? Where are they?" Shadow asked.

"Uncle Vinson said 'Arien' right? That guy's from Team P.A.W.S." Rouge hummed. "They're already asking help from the other teams." She clenched a fist. "I just hope Mom could hold up."

Shadow looked at Rouge. Worry was very visible on her face.

"I'm going with them. Because you, Uncle Erickson, and Sonic have a different mission." Rouge says. "You still have to catch that Hedgehog fraud, don't you?" She grinned at her partner.

Shadow sighed and crossed his arms. "Why does our mission have to conflict?" He huffed, his ears folding back showing a vulnerable side of him.

Rouge looked at him and smiled at him sympathetically.

"This is the first time Shadow, don't worry about it." She told the older and gave him a side hug. "I like this side of you."

Shadow's ears perked up as he looked over at her before rolling his eyes, before he shoved her off.

"Don't get used to it."

Rouge just laughed as they arrived into Captain Lucas' chambers. She smiled as she located the said coffee maker and got to work, she also found a kettle nearby.

"Perfect."

Every chamber has a small kitchen for convenience so they don't have to go to the lounge room to heat up water for the tea.

"Come Shadow, I'll teach you how to make good tea." She smugly says while Shadow rolled his eyes again.

*****

For the next four days, Erickson, Shadow, and Sonic have polished their plan, with a little twist that only Erickson and Shadow know about.

While the rest of Team E.C.H.O. with Miles' tech expertise, they are trying to locate who took Rain and where she was taken.
