Shadow the Hedgehog

Rouge gave Shadow a look and made a kicking motion. He got the message. "Nn-no. Don't know what you mean there guys." "Dodged a bullet with that one.", he muttered to himself.

"I'm sure we will." said Rouge as she shook Red's hand.

Eventually Shadow turned her head to face his and got her attention. Once Rouge came back to her senses she talked to Red. "Hi I'm Rouge. Don't worry, I won't bite."

Rouge's gaze was transfixed on her counterpart, as if she were standing at the edge of an abyss looking straight down. For all his finger snapping Shadow couldn't break her astonished stare

"Hi there, I'm Rouge. Pleased to meet you... Melody, isn't it?"

Certainly. Have the silverware as it's a special occassion. One less block in the way of my victory.

Not close enough. I have brought great dishonour on my family. Seppuku is the only honourable path. *pulls out spoon* This is gonna be difficult. So I'll just regain my honour by taking the win.

That roughly translates as "I can also speak German if you want it" I'm a little rusty so that last part might be wrong.

"Locke I must admit I'm surprised you're up. You took one hell of a beating from your more evil counterpart."

"Sorry... it's just, I care a lot about my youthful looks. Probably more than I should."

Rouge shuddered and grabbed Shadow. "I'm not growing old! You must be able to help with that Shadow? Blood tranfusions or something. I'm not ending up like my mother!" "But I like having my blood inside me." Rouge's grip tightened "Would you prefer I drink it? I might not be a vampire bat but if that's what it takes to keep my looks..." "Ok, I'll help. Just don't sink your fangs into me." Shadow looked at Locke. "Thanks for setting her off. Now I won't hear the end of it."

Rouge took a long look at Red. "Sorta looks like my mother from 10 years ago."

"Locke. It's been a while, hasn't it. I hear you've been busy. Who's your friend?"

Rouge looked at Shadow and smiled. "I'm fine thanks. I'd feel bad if Shaddy did something over the top to you." Shadow was relieved at this and let out a tired yawn. "Wonder where Locke and Red are?" he asked.

Shadow gave Glen a stern look. "Oh don't mind him. He just worries about me.", said Rouge to Glen. "I didn't catch your name."

"Uh... hi there. Yes I'm Rouge, isn't that right, Uncle Shadow?", she said with a smirk. "You must be Skye. Aren't you a cute one?" Rouge had a big smile on her face, while Shadow was just looking embaressed.

"Thank you Skye. One moment. I need to do something." Crowley teleported off and appeared 2 seconds later with Shadow and Rouge, who jumped out of their embrace. "What, who, where!?" asked Rouge with a confused look on her face. Shadow just glared at Crowley. "You really can't let me have a moment's peace, can you?" "Of course not Shadow. You're my source of amusement."

"Hello Skye. You're up early." said Crowley with a grin. Shadow and Rouge had finished their breakfast and were now back at the apartment, watching TV. "Is this what you've been doing all this time Rouge?" "Yep. This and buying that beauty over there." She pointed to a huge diamond sitting on the coffee table. "It certainly gets your attention. Well look on the bright side, nothing's tried to kill you these past few days" Rouge just smiled. "Well at least you're back here now. What exactly happened?" Shadow then recounted the past few days events.

"I didn't see that. Oh well. Care for some breakfast?" Shadow and Rouge were now in a small restaurant, awaiting their food. "So what exactly did you have to leave for?" she asked. "It's long and complicated. I'll tell you later." At that moment their food arrived, and they began to eat.

Crowley's eyes bolted open. "You were rather inebriated I'm afraid. I teleported you here, and slept on the floor. I must say I've had worse places to sleep." Shadow was still fast asleep in his bed, clearly enjoying the comforts of home. Rouge stood by the bed for about 10 more seconds before walking over and calling his name. Eventually he awoke. and got up. "Finally we can go get some breakfast." she said. "Sounds good to me".

(OOC Fine by me).

Denied, ego sum victor!

(OOC The plot thickens. I like it).

(OOC Might as well tell us. Not like we're doing anything particularly important at the moment).
