Shadow the Hedgehog

Hope just laughed. ---- "Yes, but where?" ---- Crowley left with a flash.

"Someone's getting into it!" ---- "Don't be like that. It's a last resort." --- Crowley picked up the crate. "Thsnk you Skye. I'll be off now."

"I think she nearly has it." ---- "I'd get driven insane and could bring whatever did this there." --- "Thank you again."

"But it'd at least slow it down!" --- "Maybe. I just don't know where." --- Crowley smiled at Anna. "Well I'll know if it doesn't work."

"Yeah. No glass in that thing at all." --- "Unfortunately. It may be best if we head out somewhere." --- "I appreciate your confidence."

"Darn right." --- "No idea. I always think it'll be me." --- "Thank you Anna."

"That power loader." --- "Yes. The question is who or what set it?" --- "I'm afraid so. It's for work."

"Tell me about it. But it looks like the heroine has a plan." --- Zamy opened the door to see everything as she left it. "It could be a trap." --- "Excellent. I'll get going then."

"I don't think it cares." --- "I need a raise," she muttered as she approached her door. --- "How long until the crate is ready Skye?"

"It's going after the kid!" ---- "This is starting to freak me out. I should check my room next." --- "Ok. Thank you."

"It must've been. What are they gonna do now?" asked Hope, now rather tense. --- "No, I could make out the desk in the darkness." --- "Likewise."

"That thing hid on the landing gear!?" ---- Zamy opened the door carefully only to see the curtains were open and everything was clearly visible inside. "Ok.... that's disconcerting." --- "Perhaps. I can't be absolutely certain."

"I guess they all do survive. The dropship is back on the main ship and- what the!?" ---- "Not now they're not," she sighed. "Ok, stay there. I'm gonna open it slightly to look inside." --- "I doubt it will take too long."

"They're on the ship now. Looks like they'll escape the blast after all." --- "I can't see anyone inside, it's pretty dark though." ---- "I appreciate that, I just need some time to get things straight."

"I guess she's a bit too wide to pick up speed there." ---- Zamy grimaced and carefully snuck over to the door and peered hrough the keyhole. ---- "It will just be easier for me. I've already been through all this once, with Red. People who support inevitably move on, it's just how it goes it seems."

"At least they can run faster than that thing." --- "Yes that- Miles, did you have your door shut before we left? I could have sworn you didn't." ---- "Put simply you are in a relationship. It would make any praise you give me based on your enthusiastic fandom seem... hollow. It'd only make things difficult for all involved."

"That's an understatement!" --- Zamy teleported them back to the apartment. --- "Because I feel it best in light of current events that we did not see each other for a while. I appreciate it's selfish but it's best to rekove myself from the situation," he replied, prepared for any backlash.

"Exactly. Looks like the queen's getting angry." ---- "Shall we head back now?" ---- "Yes, I can imagine. Which makes this all the more awkward."

"Yeah. Plus having someone who looks so much like Shadow would be a bit odd." --- "You're doing good so far." --- In hos mond, Crowley cursed, hoping he'd have been able to get his job done before dealing with anything else. "Hello Anna," he replied calmly.

"Yeah. I think he just gets assignmemts sent to him." ---- Zamy laughed. "Good boy." ---- "No idea. Probably one of your sisters."

"I don't think I've ever really seen him around here." ---- "So don't misbehave." ---- "Agreed."

"Not even I'm that harsh." --- "That only works on unruly suspects. But boy does it work!" ---- "If you insist. Let's hope my plan actually works."

"That'd be one nasty omelette." ---- "I can be quite persuasive. Well, I used to be." ---- "I'll make this up to you somehow."
