Role-Play Mania v2.0

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Of course. It's the last reminder of things before they went down the pan."

----

"You're more than welcome, Miles."

[Skye Prower 386]

"I didn't think of it like that," said Melody.

------------

"Thank you... and... um... could you read me another story tonight?" Miles asked.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"I know, that's why I seized the opportunity."

----

Zamy smiled. "Of course."

[Skye Prower 386]

"You never struck me as the kid of person who'd think that way," said Melody.

-------------

Miles grinned. "Thank's Zamy! It's really great of you."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"I was frozen in a tube for 50 years. I appreciate the pain of long journeys."

----

"It's my pleasure. What one do you want tonight?"

[Skye Prower 386]

"Oh, I'm sorry Shadow.... I didn't mean..."

-----------

"Uh, I'll have a look at the book," said Miles, heading to his room.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"It's fine Melody. If I were easily offended I wouldn't be in this line of work."

---'

Zamy followed him in.

[Skye Prower 386]

"Maybe you would be so you could be up people who do offend you!" joked Melody. She looked back on the screen. "I missed something... why is she in a space suit?"

----------

"Uh... this one," said Miles as he flicked through the book. He handed it to Zamy and climbed into bed.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"You also missed her in her underwear but that's besides the point. The alien got on board and I assume she's gonns blow it out of the airlock."

----

Zamy sat down and started reading the story.

[Skye Prower 386]

"Darn that things persistent," said Melody.

'I hope Shadow didn't mind missing that shot of the Rouge look-alike' she thought to Hope.

------------

Miles sat back, thoroughly enjoying the story.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Well at least it's not a quitter."

"I think he caught a glimpse of it. You'd think in the future they'd get something warmer than a vest and short shorts," thought Hope.

---

Zamy continued reading through, trying to do the voices the best she could.

[Skye Prower 386]

"Very few monsters are!" said Melody.

'Maybe it's special thermal underwear or something?'

---------

When Zamy did the voices Miles smiled even more broadly.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"True enough."

"Could be that,"

--

Eventually she finished the story.

[Skye Prower 386]

"Wow, there it goes! Ha, eat vacuum monster!"

'Is that also going on your 'to design' list? Super heated underwear?'

------------

"Thank's very much Zamy," said Miles. "That was great!"

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"And that's the end of the film. It was pretty good."

"Heh, maybe if I get bored,"

----

"My pleasure, glad you liked it."

[Skye Prower 386]

"Yeah, I can't wait to see the next one," said Melody, trying to hide a yawn.

'Heehee, knowing you you'd have a lot of projects to do first!'

-----------

"Yes I did. It's really great. It takes me back..." said Miles, eyes shining.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Shall we head to bed now?" asked a tired Hope.

"You can say that again. I've got a big backlog."

---

"That's wonderful. Makes me glad I took this job."

[Skye Prower 386]

"No of course not, we..." Melody yawned heavily. "Uh, okay. Bed!" she said laughing.

'I'm not surprised. First on the list, a device to stop time so you can get through it!'

--------------

Miles stared at Zamy for a second, then leaned forward and hugged her tightly. "After... after everything that happened... you're still glad..."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Not a bad idea," thought Hope. "Goodnight Shadow, goodnight Rouge," Hope said.

----

Zamy instinctly hugged back. "Of course, it's part of why I joined in the first place: to help people."

[Skye Prower 386]

"Goodnight you two. Might see you in the morning!" said Melody.

'You should be able to do it. After all, can't Shadow use Chaos Control to slow time?'

-----------

"I... I... I don't know what to say," said Miles, still holding on. "Just... thank you so much."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

Hope headed to her room.

"Yes but not for a long period of time,"

----

"It's alright."

[Skye Prower 386]

Melody followed, happy that her wheelchair was now motored.

'I suppose, it will take time to find out how to replicate it.'

-------------

"I know, it's your job and all that, but..."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"I doubt I'll ever replicate it."

-----

"I know Miles."

[Skye Prower 386]

'Maybe if you had a chaos emerald...'

-----------

"I'm..." Miles broke off the hug. "I'm really starting to feel.... like I belong here."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"No I'd still rather not mess with that. I'd probably end up making the ultimate bomb by accident," thought Hope as she jumped inti bed.

---

Zamy smiled broadly. "You've no idea how happy that makes me."
