Shadow the Hedgehog

"Ok. If you do feel scared you can always stay in my room tonight." ---- "Good luck with it, I'm sure you'll pick the right time for it," replied Hope.

"Yep. Are you sure you want to watch it?" ---- "When are you going to do your act?"

"Smaller ones so they can hide and drag you off when you think you're safe." ----- "Of course, we're the height of orderliness down here," joked Hope.

"It's some kind of trogladyte I reckon," replied Zamy. ----- "Not a bad idea. These people seem even weirder."

"The adverts look like something set in a cave. Nothing more than that was shown," said Zamy. ---- "That sounds crazy. I don't think I could handle all these people showing up to where I live."

"I'm sure they did," smiled Zamy. --- "How's everything over at Haven?" replied Hope.

Zamy let out a laugh as "The End?" appeared on the screen. "A bit presumptious to put a question mark in there. I wonder if there ever was a sequel." ---- "I'm fine. Just trying to build an AI to help with measurements and the like. Have you ghosted up yet?" replied Hope.

"Hehe very true." ---- Hope picked up her phone and sent a message to Melody. "Are you getting this?"

"That'll teach him."

"Maybe the eggheads got something right."

"We'll just have to see."

"I doubt slowly was what they were aiming for."

"I actually think the octopus will win at this stage."

"Bah. They call themselves men of science."

"Oh dear. Hope they have a plan b."

"Give it a little time."

"It's a start."

"It's what he signed up for unfortunately. Ok there's the gas."

"Yes. I'd hate to be the guy who has to clear up afterwards."

"Not necessarily. It could work."

"Gas is rarely used as a solution in horror films, more often the problem."

"That's original at least."

"Thanks."

"I should hope so," laughed Zamy.

"Remind me not to pick you to rescue me," laughed Zamy.
