The Next Morning...
-
Sonic and Shadow came out of their bedrooms at the exact same time. Both their eyes traveled to the clock, which read "8:20am". Then, they looked at the T.V. Then the new remote in place of the old one. Just then, both their eyes narrowed and they glared at each other.
"MIIIIIIIIIIINNEEEE!!!" they both shrieked, running and diving for the remote. Sonic caught it first, but Shadow was able to slap it out of his hands. It landed in the kitchen. Sonic scrambled up and ran towards it, but Shadow caught his foot and tripped him. He jumped over the blue hedgehog and to the remote, picking it up, and turning on the T.V. to Yu-Yu-Hakusho.
"YEEESS!! I WIINN!!" Shadow yelled. "Hah! You don't get to watch Dragonball Z!" he taunted to Sonic.
The green-eyed hedgehog lay on the floor stomach down, staring at Shadow. He drummed his gloved fingers on the carpet with his chin resting in his other palm. "Dragonball Z was rescheduled, moron."
"... Then why'd you try to get the remote?"
"So I can watch Soap Operas!!"
"o__O You watch Soap Operas?!"
"YOU DO TOO!!"
Suddenly, the rest of the Sonic Crew barged into their apartment room.
Sonic sighed. "Ack, Deja Vu from chapter 3..."
"Hey! We're going out today!" Rouge yelled.
"Where?" Shadow asked.
"To Church!" said Tails.
Sonic and Shadow blinked. "Church?!"
"But are we even Christians?!" Sonic asked.
"I dunno. But L-Gurl wants us to go to church. It's Sunday anyway." Tikal replied.
"Um... okay!" Shadow said.
-
Later...
-
"Why do I have to wear clothes?" Sonic grumbled in Knuckles' Chevy Suburban.
"Because it's CHURCH!" Rouge yelled. She was wearing a nice Sunday dress that didn't show much skin. (Phew!) Everybody, in fact, was wearing nice clothing. Tikal and Amy had on nice casual dresses and the boys were wearing smart-casual pants with polo shirts tucked in.
"I look like a geek..." Shadow muttered.
"Shut up Shadow, how do you think I feel?" Knuckles said.
Sonic, Shadow, and Eggman all fit in the second backseat. Tikal and Amy sat in the first backseat and Knuckles and Rouge sat at the front. He finally inserted the keys into the ignition and gave it a twist, starting the car. He entered the street, driving in a normal pace. Knuckles stopped the car at a red traffic light.
"Hey Shadow," Sonic snickered.
Shadow glanced at him. "What?"
"I dare you to profess your love to that girl walking there." he pointed at a teenage human girl with blonde-brown hair, waiting for the bus.
"No way!"
"How come?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Yeah!"
Shadow sweatdropped. "Fine. I'll take YOUR dare, and ask someone else to do it for me!"
"What?!" Sonic cried, "You can't do that!"
"Actually, he can," Rouge said from the front passenger seat.
The black hedgehog turned to Eggman. "Eggman, did you hear Sonic's dare?"
"OF COURSE I'LL DO IT!!"
"o__O;; Okay then!"
Eggman pressed the button to lower the window. He shouted a 'hey' to the girl.
"Me?" she replied.
"Yeah! I've got something to tell you!"
"What is it?"
Just then, he decided to confess his love for her that just developed in the past few minutes. "I LOVE YOU YOU'RE EVERYTHING TO ME YOU ARE MY WORLD WITHOUT YOU I'M LOST WITHOUT YOU I HAVE NO REASON TO LIVE YOU ARE THE LIGHT IN THE FOG YOU ARE MY ONE AND TRUE LOVE PLEASE TAKE MY HAND AND LEAD ME THROUGH A LIFE FULL OF HAPPINESS AND JOY I LOVE YOU PLEASE MARRY ME!!!"
Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles and Tails fell back laughing. Tikal, Amy and Rouge were giggling madly. Just then, the light turned green. Shaking his head, but still snickering, Knuckles pressed on the acceleration, making the car lunge forward. As the car started moving away, Eggman screamed:
"I LOVE YOOOOUUUU!!!"
The teenager fainted in shock. She ended up missing her bus.
-
-
"Okay, we're here!" Knuckles said as he put the car in 'park'. Everybody pushed open the doors of the SUV and climbed out. The girls fixed their dresses while the boys looked at the church.
"Hm. Pretty decent sized church."
::Yeah. Now go in! *faces the reader* Oh, and by the way, I hope you aren't offended by me making the Sonic Crew go to a Christian church. No offense!::
The Sonic Crew shrugged and decided to enter it. Quietly, they took silent steps into the church; the Mass had already started.
"How many minutes late are we?" Tikal whispered.
"15 minutes late," Eggman replied.
They found some empty pews somewhere in the middle and sat down.
"OUCH!!" Sonic screamed, breaking the silence, as he bolted out of his seat. "What the heck was that?!?!" Looking back at where he sat, he found several pieces of glass. "What the?!"
"Please sir! Please be quiet!" whispered a church volunteer. Sonic's hands flew to his mouth, and he looked at everyone in the church. They were staring at him.
"Um... I-I'm sorry..." he said quickly, then sat back down. The priest dismissed the interruption and continued with what he was saying.
Just then, everybody stood up and the piano began playing a song. The Sonic Crew whipped out a songbook out of nowhere, and Shadow sang along with his horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE voice.
"JEEEESSUUSSS CHRRRRIIISSSTT!!!" yelled the black and red hedgehog. The people around him shot him strange looks, but Shadow didn't see them. His eyes were closed happily and his lips were curled into a too-cheerful smile. "HEEE ISSS OUUURRR SAAAVIIOORRR!!" Shadow continued singing.
Sonic and Rouge, who were sitting on either side of him, covered their eyes and tried to ignore it, but the sound penetrated through anyway.
The maestro halted the music. Everybody relaxed and sat back down in their seats, glad that the uncivilized sound of Shadow's singing voice ended.
"Uh, erm, a-hem," the priest continued, and he continued addressing the Mass.
-
15 minutes later...
-
A light snoring sound echoed universally in the church. Turning their heads, they spotted where it came from; a certain evil genius had fallen asleep during the Mass. His body was slunk down in his seat, his legs spread, and his head titled to the left, a bit of drool oozing out. Tikal suddenly noticed a huge group of people staring at their spot, and then perceived the sleeping human beside her. Stomping *hard* on Eggman's leather shoes, she instantly woke him up.
"AAUGH!! OWW!!! OWOOWOWOWWWW!!" Eggman screamed, leaping out of his seat and hopping up and down in place. "OOOWWW!!! THAT FRIGGIN HUURT LIKE CRAP!"
"Crap hurts?" Tails snickered.
"Shuttup!!"
Suddenly, Eggman noticed everybody still staring at him. He looked left and right, and then sat down quickly, dismissing the aching of his foot for now.
-
15 minutes later...
-
"Now let us all grant each other a sign of peace." the priest said. All the people in the church turned to each other and shook hands, saying 'Peace be with you.'
"Um, uh, uh..." the Sonic Crew said, obviously sort of confused.
A female golden hedgehog grabbed Knuckles, pulled him towards her and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Peace be with you, cutie. ^_~"
Knuckles blinked. "P-Pe-eace b-b-be with y-yoou...." Then he fainted.
Sonic and the rest sweatdropped, but Rouge glared at the stranger.
"HEY! THAT'S *MY* BOYFRIEND!!"
"... So?"
"GRR!!"
Eggman held Rouge back while she tried to smack the girl hedgehog. "WHY YOU LITTLE!!"
"Peace be with ya too! XD!"
"Rouge, calm down, we're in church for God's sake!" Eggman said.
Rouge stopped struggling and hmmped, turning away.
-
When the Mass neared the end...
-
The priest raised a hand. "The Mass has ended."
"WOO HOO!!" Tails screamed, it echoeing all over the place. The people glared at him.
"SHHH!!" Eggman hissed, covering Tails' mouth.
"Mmpfhh..."
"o_O;; Anyway, may the Lord be with you!"
"And also with you!" replied the people in the church.
"In the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen!"
"Amen!"
"Go in peace!"
"YOU TOO!" Shadow yelled to him gleefully. Sonic whacked him upside the head.
"SHUTTUP!!"
Then, the music-that-plays-when-you-leave-the-church started playing. When the priest past the Sonic Crew's pew, they exited the church.
Amy looked at Tikal. "Tikal?"
"Yes?"
"Remind us never, NEVER, to bring the boys with us to church again."
Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles, Eggman, and Tails grinned.
"All righty, where off to next?" Sonic asked.
"OH!! OHH!!! I KNOOW!!" Shadow screamed, jumping up and down like a toddler.
"Where?"
"CHINAAAATOOOOWWNNN!!!"
"Why there?"
"ANIIMMEEEEEE!!!"
Everyone grinned. "Woo hoo!"
"Plus, we'll have our lunch there too!" Rouge said, grinning.
"Lunch?" Eggman asked. His eyes became blank, and drool started oozing out of his mouth. "LUUUUNNCCCHH..."
"Eww! Don't do that!" Tikal said, facing away from him.
"OFF TO CHINATOWN WE GOOO!" Knuckles screamed, ripping off his nerdy clothes and running towards his beloved SUV.
The boys stared at him. "WOO HOO!!!" they ripped off their nerdy clothes too - except Eggman, because then that would be just scary - and ran towards the SUV.
Tikal, Amy, and Rouge stared. "BOYS!!"
(A/N: Please, please don't be offended because I made the Sonic Crew go to church. ^^;; I mean, it came to me one day while I was in Mass! Ehehehe....)
-
In Chinatown...
-
"Woooow..." Shadow said as he looked around an anime store. "... HEY! A YU-YU-HAKUSHO POSTER!! WOO HOO!!" He grabbed the poster.
"HEY!!" yelled the owner, "YOU'RE PAYING FOR THAT, RIGHT?!!"
".... Duh.... "
"OOKEEEYY!!"
Sonic looked around. "Hey, where's Amy?"
Shadow ran up to his side and narrowed his eyes, smiling. "Eheheh.... you wanna know where Amy is, riiight?"
"... Um. Yeah."
"That means you LIKE her, riiiight?"
"What?!"
"YOU LIKE HER!! AH HA! I KNEW IT! YOU THINK SHE'S GORGEOUS, YOU WANNA KISSS HER, YOU WANNA LOOVE HER!! YOU WANNA--"
Shadow was cut off as Rouge covered his mouth with a hand. "He talks too much."
"I know."
Tikal's eyes widened as she spotted something perched on a shelf. "OHMYGOSH!! OOOAAAHH MAAAIIII GAAARRSSHHHH!!!"
Everybody stared at her.
"IT'S ALL THE EPISODES OF MAGIC KNIGHT RAYEARTH!!"
Eggman blinked several times. "What's Magic Knight Rayearth?"
"ONLY THE BEST ANIME EVVEERRR!!"
"NO!! DRAGONBALL Z!!" Sonic screamed.
"NO!! YU-YU-HAKUSHO!" yelled Shadow.
"DRAGONBALL Z!!"
"YU-YU-HAKUSHO!!"
"DRAGONBALL Z!!!!!!"
"YU-YU-HAKUSHO!!!!!!!"
"MAGIC KNIGHT RAAAYEEARRTHHH!!!" Tikal shouted.
"THAT'S IT!!! ALL OF YOU TALK WAY TOO MUCH!! GET OUT OF MY STORE!! GET OUT NOW!! GET!! OUT!! GETOUTGETOUTGETOUTGETOUT!!!" the owner growled, kicking the Sonic Crew out of the store.
-
-
Knuckles sighed. "See what you guys did now?!"
"Magic Knight Rayearth..." Tikal muttered.
"Yu-Yu-Hakusho..." Shadow whispered.
"Dragonball Z!" Sonic whispered harshly.
Three bricks came flying out of the anime store and hit the three anthropomorphs. "I CAN STILL HEAR YOU!!"
Tails grabbed the three bricks and threw them back into the anime store, making a huge hole in the windows. "AND WE CAN HEAR YOU TOO!!"
Amy gasped and went to Sonic's side, cradling his head on her lap and petting him like a dog. "Oh, my poor Sonikku! Are you all right? I must take care of you!"
Shadow snickered loudly.
"I'm so hungry!!" Eggman screamed. Knuckles smacked him with his boot.
"Shush!"
"Wow, your boot smells like crap!"
"SHUTTUP!!!"
Rouge stared at everybody who was yelling at everybody else, and sighed. "Am I the only sane one here?"
A small angel that looked just like Rouge, except with an elegant white dress, a halo, and angel wings, popped up on HER right. "My dear Rouge, have faith in your friends..."
Then, a small devil-like creature with red skimpy clothing with horns and threatening wings popped up on HER left. "Whaddya talkin' about, Good Rouge?" It asked the angel. "She's the only one that's sane!"
"Who are you two?!" Rouge screamed.
"We're your conscious!" They both announced.
"Rouge, ya might as well ditch them!" Bad Rouge snickered, and jerked a thumb towards the SUV. "See? There's the car! Go take it without 'em!"
"Bad Rouge, Bad Rouge, Bad Rouge," Good Rouge sighed, shaking a finger back and forth. "Did you forget that Knuckles has the keys?"
"Well then, Rouge, listen to Good Rouge and STEAL the keys from Knuckles!"
Good Rouge gasped. "I said no such thing!"
"Yeah ya did, goody-two-shoes!"
"No!"
"Yes! You even suggested it!"
"Why I oughta..." Good Rouge suddenly remembered her role as an angel. "... No. That would be the wrong thing to do."
Bad Rouge smirked. "What, are ya afraid, angel girl? Oooh, lookit me!" She then began to mock Good Rouge by prancing around. "Oh, I'm Good Rouge! I'm the good one! I never get into fights cuz I'm a chicken and I can't fight at all anyways!"
"THAT'S IT!!" Good Rouge shrieked, jumping from her side of Rouge's shoulder to Bad Rouge's side. They both disappeared in puffs of white and red smoke to have a match.
Rouge blinked. "... I guess I'm going insane too..." Shaking her head, she faced everybody who was currently shouting and fighting with everybody else. "Hey guys! Stop!"
No one stopped.
"Guys! Listen!!!"
No one listened.
"LISTEN TO ME, YOU STUPID PIECES OF CHICKEN POT PIE!!!!!!!!"
Everybody stopped fighting and faced Rouge.
"... Wow, that worked!!"
Knuckles rolled his eyes. "Hurry up and talk before we change our minds!!"
"Okay okay! Um, uh," she glanced at her watch. "It's already 2:36pm. Shouldn't we go find lunch?"
Everybody was silent for a while. "... OKAY!!"
-
-
"Jeesh, thank goodness that's over," Tikal said as she made her way inside the restaurant with the others. They were in a place called, "Hop Woo". The best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, Los Angeles!!! ^_____^!!
The Sonic Crew sat in a table for eight in the middle of the room. A waiter went up to them and gave them some menus.
"Hewwo, and welcome to Hop Woo!!" Then he walked away.
"Hhhmmm..." everybody hmmed while looking for something good on the menu.
"I want the fried hedgehog!!" Knuckles yelled. Shadow, Sonic and Amy glared at him.
"Weeell," Sonic started. "I want the CRISPY ECHIDNA. Mmm, sounds sooo scrumptious!"
Knuckles and Tikal's eyes widened, but then the red echidna glanced at the menu. "Actually, I want the skinned hedgehog with vegetables on the side and shrimp!"
Shadow and Amy gasped.
Sonic's jaw dropped. His eyes narrowed. "Hmm, actually, I change MY mind too! I want the oven-baked echidna with wonton noodles!!"
"I want the cooked hedgehog with mild barbeque sauce and fruits on the side!!"
"I want echidna slices!!"
Tikal and Knuckles gasped at Sonic. Knuckles pointed a gloved finger at him. "BARBARIAN!!! CANNIBAL!!"
"I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S THE CANNIBAL!!" Sonic screamed, leaping over the bus and onto the M.E.'s Guardian. "TAKE THIS!!" Sonic gave Knuckles a powerful kick to the gut.
"OWW!! WELL, GETTA LOADA THIS!!" cried Knuckles, giving Sonic a hard punch to his jaw. Both continued fighting in a little cloud next to the table.
Tails blinked several times but then looked to the floor. "Wow!! Five bucks!!" the kitsune said happily, bending down and picking up the five dollar bill underneath the chair.
"DIE, KNUCKLES!!"
"EAT MY FIST, SONIC!!"
"I *found* five bucks!!"
Eggman sighed. "Deja Vu..."
"YOU CANNIBAL!!"
"YOU BARBARIAN!!"
"I found five bucks!"
"GAAAAHH!!!"
"AAARGHGHHH!!!!"
"I found five bucks!"
"OWW!! GET OFF MY DREADLOCKS!!"
"I'M GONNA GNAW THESE OFF!!"
"I found five bucks!!"
"(bites)"
"OH GOD!! THAT WAS MY EAR!!! GET OFF MY EAR, YA STUPID ECHIDNA!!!"
Tikal gasped and slapped Sonic. "Thou shalt not insult echidnas! Fool!"
"I found five bucks!!"
The waiter from before came back. Knuckles and Sonic saw him and jumped in their seats before they got kicked out. "Hello! Whaddya wanna eat?"
Rouge sighed. "I guess I'll order for all of you--"
"WE WANT EVERYTHIIIING!!" Eggman yelled.
"WE DON'T WANT EVERYTHING!!" everybody yelled back to Eggman.
"Okay!! I'll order!!" Rouge yelled. "Fried rice, crispy chicken, deep fried squid, any kind of salad, chicken corn cream soup, and... uhhhh.... that beef thing with the broccoli!!" The bat swiped all the menus from everybody and handed them to the waiter. "That's it!!"
"How about drinks?"
"Oh... well, fruit punch for me."
"I want chocolate milk!" Amy and Tails yelled.
"Brisk, bay-bee!" Shadow said, jumped up on the table, winked, and gave a thumbs up to a camera nearby. Everybody scooted away from him.
"Orange juice!" Tikal said.
"Coffee!" Eggman said. Everybody stared at him. "What?! I need my caffeine!!"
"Coke!" Sonic said.
"Pepsi!" Knuckles said.
"All righty!" The waiter walked away.
"Coke is better..." Sonic muttered. Knuckles overheard him.
"What?! No! Pepsi!"
"COKE!"
"PEPSI!!"
"YAAARGHH!!"
"GAAAHHH!!"
They leaped on each other and began to fight once again.
"Is that all you do?! Fight?!" Amy asked.
"CCCOOOOKKEEE!!"
"PPPEEPPPSSIIII!!"
Tails got out of his seat. "I'll be right back!" then he sped out of the restaurant, money in hand. The waiter came back with trays of food. He put them down on the table, and another guy came by to drop off their drinks. Knuckles and Sonic stopped fighting and sat down on their seats.
Eggman's eyes widened. "... Food..."
"People! Hurry before Eggman takes all the food!!" Tikal yelled. Everybody began diving for the food and putting it on their trays, leaving enough for Eggman and Tails.
"Hey!" Eggman pouted.
"There's still some for you," Amy said as she stuffed some of her salad in her mouth.
"Deep fried squuiiiddd...." said Shadow. "So... wonderful... and the taste..."
Everybody stared at him.
"What?! It's good!"
Tails came strolling back into the restaurant with a plastic bag and something in it. He sat down in the table, took his portion of food, and began gobbling down while everyone stared at him. The kitsune looked up in annoyance.
"What?!"
"What's in that plastic bag?"
Tails blinked, and then hid the bag behind him. "O-o-oh, n-nothing!"
Tikal glanced at it. "It looks big. And bulky."
"It's nothing! Can we just eat our food?"
"... Oh fine."
Everybody continued eating while wondering about what was inside Tails' bag. After awhile, everybody forgot about it except Eggman. He sneakily snatched it while Tails wasn't looking.
"Hey!! Give that back!!"
"Nah ah ah, I wanna take a look." Eggman reached inside the bag and pulled out a huge Keroppi stuffed plushie. (A/N: Do any of you know who Keroppi is? ^^;; He's my fav Sanrio character! He's a cute widdle froggy, yes he is! I actually have a small plushie of him holding up the letter "N" for Nicole! It's so cute; my brother gave it to me... okay, now I'm rambling...)
"What is that?" Knuckles asked.
"It's a stuffed animal, duh!" Shadow said. Everybody gasped and faced him. "What?"
"OH MY GOD!! SHADOW SAID SOMETHING SMART!" Sonic yelled and pointed a finger at the black and red hedgehog.
"I know!! Isn't that great?!"
"But you usually don't say smart things."
"I know!! Isn't that great?!"
"... Nevermind."
"Eggmaaaan! Gimme it!!" Tails yelled while reaching for the plushie. Ivo handed it back, along with the plastic bag.
"Why do you have a Keroppi doll anyway?"
"I threw away Shelly, the anaconda, and ripped off Hello Kitty's head."
Everybody scooted away from him.
"Riiiight!!"
Soon enough, they were finished with their lunch and decided to go home. The Sonic Crew went into Knuckles' SUV and were on their way to the freeway.
A certain song started playing on the radio. Amy gasped and said to Knuckles, "Turn it up! Turn it up! I love this song!!" She began singing along...
"Whyyyyy!!!
Should I caaaaare!!!
Cuz you weren't there!!
When I was scared!!
I was so alooone!!
Yooouuu!!
You need 'ta listeeen!!
I'm starting to trip!!!
I'm losing my grip!!
And I'm in this thing aloooone!!!"
"Ack! Turn down the radio!" Sonic screamed. Rouge happily turned down the radio.
"What was that?! Avril Lavigne?!" Knuckles screamed. The red light turned green and they continued on.
"Yeah! She's great!" Amy beamed.
"Well..." Tikal muttered, "Yeah, she's a pretty girl and she has a good voice, but I hate the image she's giving... she's being someone she's not... pfftt..."
"Amy, don't tell me you like Britney Spears," Rouge said.
The pink hedgehog scrunched her face. "... Eww. No. I wouldn't go down to THAT level."
Shadow leaned on the seats of the first backseat. "Heh, Tikal, if you don't like the image Avril Lavigne's giving, imagine Britney Spears!!"
"Oh God Shadow, don't mention it. Please."
"Those pop stars are so full of crap," Rouge laughed.
Amy leaned against the front seat. "What kind of music do you like anyway, Rouge?"
"Well, a little bit of jazz... and rap. Lotsa rap. And rock."
"You, Tikal?"
Tikal tilted her head. "Um... some pop and rock."
"You, Shadow?"
"I like rock. A lot. DUUUR, lil' Amy!" Shadow said, giving Amy's forehead a poke.
"o_O Riiight. Eggman?"
"I don't listen to music much."
Everybody gasped. "YOU DON'T LISTEN TO MUSIC?!"
"Not much."
Amy raised an eyebrow and faced Knuckles. "How about you?"
"I like rap."
"You, Sonikku?"
"Uuuhhm.... rock, pop, rap, etc."
"Ooooaaah... sing me a song, Sonikku!" Amy giggled and petted his spikes. Sonic moved his head out of Amy's reach.
"No touchy the spikes!"
"Why?"
"Once, Kaiba poked them, and her finger started bleeding."
Shadow suddenly butted in. "So, you don't want her finger to be pricked?"
"Well, no."
"OOAAH, SO THAT MEANS YOU LIKE HER!! HOW CUUUTE!!"
Sonic pushed Shadow out the window.
-
-
"Hey! Wait!!" Shadow yelled at the retreating SUV. He scrambled up and skated beside the car, on the left side. "Knuckles!"
"Hehehe!" laughed the echidna. He pulled the car over and allowed Shadow to get in.
"DON'T PUSH ME OUT THE CAR!!" Shadow yelled to Sonic. "NOW I GOTS A BOO BOO ON MY ARM!!!"
"HAHA!!" Tails yelled.
"... Oh, can I see your Keroppi plushie?"
"No."
"Dangit!!"
"We're here!" Knuckles said as he put the car on 'park' in their apartment's garage. Everybody exited the SUV.
"Hey, wanna go over to our apartment?" Shadow asked the others.
"This apartment *is* our apartment," Tikal said flatly.
"No! I mean mine and Sonic's apartment."
"Oh okay!"
So, everybody went out of the garage and went to Shad and Sonic's apartment room, number 368, on the third floor. Shadow took out the keys and tried to unlock the door.
"Hey, it won't open..." the black and red hedgehog grunted as he tried to open the door.
"Ah, gimme that!" Sonic said as he snatched the keys and swiftly opened the door to their apartment.
Everybody entered and was greeted by the surprisingly clean room.
"With Shadow being insane and all, I thought this would be more messier," Eggman said. Shadow smacked him on the head with the T.V. remote.
"Shush! I may be insane, but I'm not a messy person!"
Sonic snickered. "You should see his room."
"SHUTTUP!!!"
Tails leaped in front of the GameCube, turned it on, and grabbed one of four controllers. "Super Smash Brothers Melee!! I'm playing as Fox!"
Sonic reached for a controller and picked a character. "I'm Mario!"
"I'm Link!" Shadow said.
Rouge grinned and took the last controller. "I'm Samus!!"
The boys looked at Rouge. "Hah! You're gonna loose, girlie!"
She snickered. "We'll see about that!"
-
-
"Hah!! I woon!!" Rouge screamed, dropping the controller and doing a victory dance.
Tails, Sonic and Shadow glared at her.
"REMATCH!!" Tails yelled.
And there was a rematch.
-
3 hours later...
7:15pm
-
Everybody had at least played SSBM once, and they were totally addicted to the game. There was a sudden knock on the door.
Tikal, Knuckles, Eggman and Amy were playing SSBM; Tikal as Zelda, Amy as Peach, Knuckles as Roy, and Eggman as Bowser.
"Get the door, Shadow!" Sonic said from the kitchen that was connected to the living room.
"Okay!" the black and red hedgehog walked up to the door and opened it. There was a red-brown fox there, holding a box. "Uh, hi! Who are you?"
"Hello, I'm David Chingaling, and I'd like to ask... would you like to adopt a baby?" the fox, David, opened the box and there was a small light blue female baby hedgehog wrapped in a green blanket.
Shadow's eyes widened, and he took the baby in his arms. "How cuuuute!!"
"Yes. Cute. Would you like to adopt it?"
"o_O Adopt it?! Well..." Shadow poked his head in the house. "SOOOOOONIIIIIIIIIIC!!!" he yelled.
"WHAT?!" Sonic screamed from the kitchen.
"THERE'S A BABY HERE!! WANNA ADOPT IT?! IT LOOKS SO MUCH LIKE YOU!!"
Amy overheard Shadow, gasped, dropped the controller, and then ran to the doorway where Shadow stood. She glanced at the baby hedgehog in Shadow's arms. "Oh my god! It's Floofyshnuff!!" She reached over and held the baby hedgehog.
The teenage blue hedgehog made his way to the doorway and saw the baby. "Wow. It does look like me."
"It's our future daughter, Sonic!" Amy giggled. "Floofyshnuff!"
Sonic fell over. "I DON'T WANNA NAME OUR DAUGHTER FLOOFYSHNUFF!! WE'RE NEVER GONNA HAVE A DAUGHTER!! I DON'T LIKE YOU IN *THAT* WAY ANYWAY!!"
Amy giggled. "You know you want me."
"WHAT?! NO!!"
Shadow watched as the two other hedgehogs battled verbally. Sonic screamed things while Amy responded cutely with flirty and witty phrases. He took the baby from Amy's arms and handed it back to the fox standing at the doorway. "No thank you."
David the fox smiled. "Okay then." He put the baby in the box and proceeded to go to the next apartment room.
Shadow shut the door and headed into the kitchen to get a snack. Amy and Sonic were still "fighting" near the doorway.
"MUAAA HA HA HA HAAA!!" Eggman screamed, leaping and dancing around. "I WON!! I KICKED YOUR B-U-T-T-S!!"
Tikal sighed. "Like, whatever!"
Suddenly, there was another knock. Sonic, since he was near the door, answered it. There was the mailman.
"Hello! Is this the Hedgehog Residence? Home of Sonic Hedgehog and Shadow Robotnik-Hedgehog?"
Sonic nodded. "Yeah."
"Here." the mailman handed Sonic an envelope.
"Why is there a mailman at 7:30pm anyway?"
"U-u-um, I-I have to go! Bye bye!" the mailman screamed, looking around frantically for a way to escape, but then finally decided to jump off the railing. And down three stories he went. o_O;;
Sonic raised an eyebrow. "Whatever. Hey Shad, we have mail!"
The black and red hedgehog came to him chewing a banana. "Yeah? From who?"
"I dunno."
Shadow peered over Sonic's shoulder as he opened it. It exploded in their faces.
"Ack!" Shadow cried, wiping his face. "What was that?!"
"Explosive mail," Sonic muttered.
There was a voice coming from the envelope. "NEVER GO INTO MY ANIME STORE AGAIN!!!"
Everybody in the room sweatdropped.
-----~*~-----
Okay! Yay! A long chapter, finally!
In the next chapter, should I start out in Tails and Knuckles' apartment room? Or how about the girls? Or maybe Eggman? You guys decide!
... Yeah, so this wasn't that funny...

The Next Morning...
-
Sonic and Shadow came out of their bedrooms at the exact same time. Both their eyes traveled to the clock, which read "8:20am". Then, they looked at the T.V. Then the new remote in place of the old one. Just then, both their eyes narrowed and they glared at each other.
"MIIIIIIIIIIINNEEEE!!!" they both shrieked, running and diving for the remote. Sonic caught it first, but Shadow was able to slap it out of his hands. It landed in the kitchen. Sonic scrambled up and ran towards it, but Shadow caught his foot and tripped him. He jumped over the blue hedgehog and to the remote, picking it up, and turning on the T.V. to Yu-Yu-Hakusho.
"YEEESS!! I WIINN!!" Shadow yelled. "Hah! You don't get to watch Dragonball Z!" he taunted to Sonic.
The green-eyed hedgehog lay on the floor stomach down, staring at Shadow. He drummed his gloved fingers on the carpet with his chin resting in his other palm. "Dragonball Z was rescheduled, moron."
"... Then why'd you try to get the remote?"
"So I can watch Soap Operas!!"
"o__O You watch Soap Operas?!"
"YOU DO TOO!!"
Suddenly, the rest of the Sonic Crew barged into their apartment room.
Sonic sighed. "Ack, Deja Vu from chapter 3..."
"Hey! We're going out today!" Rouge yelled.
"Where?" Shadow asked.
"To Church!" said Tails.
Sonic and Shadow blinked. "Church?!"
"But are we even Christians?!" Sonic asked.
"I dunno. But L-Gurl wants us to go to church. It's Sunday anyway." Tikal replied.
"Um... okay!" Shadow said.
-
Later...
-
"Why do I have to wear clothes?" Sonic grumbled in Knuckles' Chevy Suburban.
"Because it's CHURCH!" Rouge yelled. She was wearing a nice Sunday dress that didn't show much skin. (Phew!) Everybody, in fact, was wearing nice clothing. Tikal and Amy had on nice casual dresses and the boys were wearing smart-casual pants with polo shirts tucked in.
"I look like a geek..." Shadow muttered.
"Shut up Shadow, how do you think I feel?" Knuckles said.
Sonic, Shadow, and Eggman all fit in the second backseat. Tikal and Amy sat in the first backseat and Knuckles and Rouge sat at the front. He finally inserted the keys into the ignition and gave it a twist, starting the car. He entered the street, driving in a normal pace. Knuckles stopped the car at a red traffic light.
"Hey Shadow," Sonic snickered.
Shadow glanced at him. "What?"
"I dare you to profess your love to that girl walking there." he pointed at a teenage human girl with blonde-brown hair, waiting for the bus.
"No way!"
"How come?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Yeah!"
Shadow sweatdropped. "Fine. I'll take YOUR dare, and ask someone else to do it for me!"
"What?!" Sonic cried, "You can't do that!"
"Actually, he can," Rouge said from the front passenger seat.
The black hedgehog turned to Eggman. "Eggman, did you hear Sonic's dare?"
"OF COURSE I'LL DO IT!!"
"o__O;; Okay then!"
Eggman pressed the button to lower the window. He shouted a 'hey' to the girl.
"Me?" she replied.
"Yeah! I've got something to tell you!"
"What is it?"
Just then, he decided to confess his love for her that just developed in the past few minutes. "I LOVE YOU YOU'RE EVERYTHING TO ME YOU ARE MY WORLD WITHOUT YOU I'M LOST WITHOUT YOU I HAVE NO REASON TO LIVE YOU ARE THE LIGHT IN THE FOG YOU ARE MY ONE AND TRUE LOVE PLEASE TAKE MY HAND AND LEAD ME THROUGH A LIFE FULL OF HAPPINESS AND JOY I LOVE YOU PLEASE MARRY ME!!!"
Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles and Tails fell back laughing. Tikal, Amy and Rouge were giggling madly. Just then, the light turned green. Shaking his head, but still snickering, Knuckles pressed on the acceleration, making the car lunge forward. As the car started moving away, Eggman screamed:
"I LOVE YOOOOUUUU!!!"
The teenager fainted in shock. She ended up missing her bus.
-
-
"Okay, we're here!" Knuckles said as he put the car in 'park'. Everybody pushed open the doors of the SUV and climbed out. The girls fixed their dresses while the boys looked at the church.
"Hm. Pretty decent sized church."
::Yeah. Now go in! *faces the reader* Oh, and by the way, I hope you aren't offended by me making the Sonic Crew go to a Christian church. No offense!::
The Sonic Crew shrugged and decided to enter it. Quietly, they took silent steps into the church; the Mass had already started.
"How many minutes late are we?" Tikal whispered.
"15 minutes late," Eggman replied.
They found some empty pews somewhere in the middle and sat down.
"OUCH!!" Sonic screamed, breaking the silence, as he bolted out of his seat. "What the heck was that?!?!" Looking back at where he sat, he found several pieces of glass. "What the?!"
"Please sir! Please be quiet!" whispered a church volunteer. Sonic's hands flew to his mouth, and he looked at everyone in the church. They were staring at him.
"Um... I-I'm sorry..." he said quickly, then sat back down. The priest dismissed the interruption and continued with what he was saying.
Just then, everybody stood up and the piano began playing a song. The Sonic Crew whipped out a songbook out of nowhere, and Shadow sang along with his horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE voice.
"JEEEESSUUSSS CHRRRRIIISSSTT!!!" yelled the black and red hedgehog. The people around him shot him strange looks, but Shadow didn't see them. His eyes were closed happily and his lips were curled into a too-cheerful smile. "HEEE ISSS OUUURRR SAAAVIIOORRR!!" Shadow continued singing.
Sonic and Rouge, who were sitting on either side of him, covered their eyes and tried to ignore it, but the sound penetrated through anyway.
The maestro halted the music. Everybody relaxed and sat back down in their seats, glad that the uncivilized sound of Shadow's singing voice ended.
"Uh, erm, a-hem," the priest continued, and he continued addressing the Mass.
-
15 minutes later...
-
A light snoring sound echoed universally in the church. Turning their heads, they spotted where it came from; a certain evil genius had fallen asleep during the Mass. His body was slunk down in his seat, his legs spread, and his head titled to the left, a bit of drool oozing out. Tikal suddenly noticed a huge group of people staring at their spot, and then perceived the sleeping human beside her. Stomping *hard* on Eggman's leather shoes, she instantly woke him up.
"AAUGH!! OWW!!! OWOOWOWOWWWW!!" Eggman screamed, leaping out of his seat and hopping up and down in place. "OOOWWW!!! THAT FRIGGIN HUURT LIKE CRAP!"
"Crap hurts?" Tails snickered.
"Shuttup!!"
Suddenly, Eggman noticed everybody still staring at him. He looked left and right, and then sat down quickly, dismissing the aching of his foot for now.
-
15 minutes later...
-
"Now let us all grant each other a sign of peace." the priest said. All the people in the church turned to each other and shook hands, saying 'Peace be with you.'
"Um, uh, uh..." the Sonic Crew said, obviously sort of confused.
A female golden hedgehog grabbed Knuckles, pulled him towards her and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Peace be with you, cutie. ^_~"
Knuckles blinked. "P-Pe-eace b-b-be with y-yoou...." Then he fainted.
Sonic and the rest sweatdropped, but Rouge glared at the stranger.
"HEY! THAT'S *MY* BOYFRIEND!!"
"... So?"
"GRR!!"
Eggman held Rouge back while she tried to smack the girl hedgehog. "WHY YOU LITTLE!!"
"Peace be with ya too! XD!"
"Rouge, calm down, we're in church for God's sake!" Eggman said.
Rouge stopped struggling and hmmped, turning away.
-
When the Mass neared the end...
-
The priest raised a hand. "The Mass has ended."
"WOO HOO!!" Tails screamed, it echoeing all over the place. The people glared at him.
"SHHH!!" Eggman hissed, covering Tails' mouth.
"Mmpfhh..."
"o_O;; Anyway, may the Lord be with you!"
"And also with you!" replied the people in the church.
"In the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen!"
"Amen!"
"Go in peace!"
"YOU TOO!" Shadow yelled to him gleefully. Sonic whacked him upside the head.
"SHUTTUP!!"
Then, the music-that-plays-when-you-leave-the-church started playing. When the priest past the Sonic Crew's pew, they exited the church.
Amy looked at Tikal. "Tikal?"
"Yes?"
"Remind us never, NEVER, to bring the boys with us to church again."
Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles, Eggman, and Tails grinned.
"All righty, where off to next?" Sonic asked.
"OH!! OHH!!! I KNOOW!!" Shadow screamed, jumping up and down like a toddler.
"Where?"
"CHINAAAATOOOOWWNNN!!!"
"Why there?"
"ANIIMMEEEEEE!!!"
Everyone grinned. "Woo hoo!"
"Plus, we'll have our lunch there too!" Rouge said, grinning.
"Lunch?" Eggman asked. His eyes became blank, and drool started oozing out of his mouth. "LUUUUNNCCCHH..."
"Eww! Don't do that!" Tikal said, facing away from him.
"OFF TO CHINATOWN WE GOOO!" Knuckles screamed, ripping off his nerdy clothes and running towards his beloved SUV.
The boys stared at him. "WOO HOO!!!" they ripped off their nerdy clothes too - except Eggman, because then that would be just scary - and ran towards the SUV.
Tikal, Amy, and Rouge stared. "BOYS!!"
(A/N: Please, please don't be offended because I made the Sonic Crew go to church. ^^;; I mean, it came to me one day while I was in Mass! Ehehehe....)
-
In Chinatown...
-
"Woooow..." Shadow said as he looked around an anime store. "... HEY! A YU-YU-HAKUSHO POSTER!! WOO HOO!!" He grabbed the poster.
"HEY!!" yelled the owner, "YOU'RE PAYING FOR THAT, RIGHT?!!"
".... Duh.... "
"OOKEEEYY!!"
Sonic looked around. "Hey, where's Amy?"
Shadow ran up to his side and narrowed his eyes, smiling. "Eheheh.... you wanna know where Amy is, riiight?"
"... Um. Yeah."
"That means you LIKE her, riiiight?"
"What?!"
"YOU LIKE HER!! AH HA! I KNEW IT! YOU THINK SHE'S GORGEOUS, YOU WANNA KISSS HER, YOU WANNA LOOVE HER!! YOU WANNA--"
Shadow was cut off as Rouge covered his mouth with a hand. "He talks too much."
"I know."
Tikal's eyes widened as she spotted something perched on a shelf. "OHMYGOSH!! OOOAAAHH MAAAIIII GAAARRSSHHHH!!!"
Everybody stared at her.
"IT'S ALL THE EPISODES OF MAGIC KNIGHT RAYEARTH!!"
Eggman blinked several times. "What's Magic Knight Rayearth?"
"ONLY THE BEST ANIME EVVEERRR!!"
"NO!! DRAGONBALL Z!!" Sonic screamed.
"NO!! YU-YU-HAKUSHO!" yelled Shadow.
"DRAGONBALL Z!!"
"YU-YU-HAKUSHO!!"
"DRAGONBALL Z!!!!!!"
"YU-YU-HAKUSHO!!!!!!!"
"MAGIC KNIGHT RAAAYEEARRTHHH!!!" Tikal shouted.
"THAT'S IT!!! ALL OF YOU TALK WAY TOO MUCH!! GET OUT OF MY STORE!! GET OUT NOW!! GET!! OUT!! GETOUTGETOUTGETOUTGETOUT!!!" the owner growled, kicking the Sonic Crew out of the store.
-
-
Knuckles sighed. "See what you guys did now?!"
"Magic Knight Rayearth..." Tikal muttered.
"Yu-Yu-Hakusho..." Shadow whispered.
"Dragonball Z!" Sonic whispered harshly.
Three bricks came flying out of the anime store and hit the three anthropomorphs. "I CAN STILL HEAR YOU!!"
Tails grabbed the three bricks and threw them back into the anime store, making a huge hole in the windows. "AND WE CAN HEAR YOU TOO!!"
Amy gasped and went to Sonic's side, cradling his head on her lap and petting him like a dog. "Oh, my poor Sonikku! Are you all right? I must take care of you!"
Shadow snickered loudly.
"I'm so hungry!!" Eggman screamed. Knuckles smacked him with his boot.
"Shush!"
"Wow, your boot smells like crap!"
"SHUTTUP!!!"
Rouge stared at everybody who was yelling at everybody else, and sighed. "Am I the only sane one here?"
A small angel that looked just like Rouge, except with an elegant white dress, a halo, and angel wings, popped up on HER right. "My dear Rouge, have faith in your friends..."
Then, a small devil-like creature with red skimpy clothing with horns and threatening wings popped up on HER left. "Whaddya talkin' about, Good Rouge?" It asked the angel. "She's the only one that's sane!"
"Who are you two?!" Rouge screamed.
"We're your conscious!" They both announced.
"Rouge, ya might as well ditch them!" Bad Rouge snickered, and jerked a thumb towards the SUV. "See? There's the car! Go take it without 'em!"
"Bad Rouge, Bad Rouge, Bad Rouge," Good Rouge sighed, shaking a finger back and forth. "Did you forget that Knuckles has the keys?"
"Well then, Rouge, listen to Good Rouge and STEAL the keys from Knuckles!"
Good Rouge gasped. "I said no such thing!"
"Yeah ya did, goody-two-shoes!"
"No!"
"Yes! You even suggested it!"
"Why I oughta..." Good Rouge suddenly remembered her role as an angel. "... No. That would be the wrong thing to do."
Bad Rouge smirked. "What, are ya afraid, angel girl? Oooh, lookit me!" She then began to mock Good Rouge by prancing around. "Oh, I'm Good Rouge! I'm the good one! I never get into fights cuz I'm a chicken and I can't fight at all anyways!"
"THAT'S IT!!" Good Rouge shrieked, jumping from her side of Rouge's shoulder to Bad Rouge's side. They both disappeared in puffs of white and red smoke to have a match.
Rouge blinked. "... I guess I'm going insane too..." Shaking her head, she faced everybody who was currently shouting and fighting with everybody else. "Hey guys! Stop!"
No one stopped.
"Guys! Listen!!!"
No one listened.
"LISTEN TO ME, YOU STUPID PIECES OF CHICKEN POT PIE!!!!!!!!"
Everybody stopped fighting and faced Rouge.
"... Wow, that worked!!"
Knuckles rolled his eyes. "Hurry up and talk before we change our minds!!"
"Okay okay! Um, uh," she glanced at her watch. "It's already 2:36pm. Shouldn't we go find lunch?"
Everybody was silent for a while. "... OKAY!!"
-
-
"Jeesh, thank goodness that's over," Tikal said as she made her way inside the restaurant with the others. They were in a place called, "Hop Woo". The best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, Los Angeles!!! ^_____^!!
The Sonic Crew sat in a table for eight in the middle of the room. A waiter went up to them and gave them some menus.
"Hewwo, and welcome to Hop Woo!!" Then he walked away.
"Hhhmmm..." everybody hmmed while looking for something good on the menu.
"I want the fried hedgehog!!" Knuckles yelled. Shadow, Sonic and Amy glared at him.
"Weeell," Sonic started. "I want the CRISPY ECHIDNA. Mmm, sounds sooo scrumptious!"
Knuckles and Tikal's eyes widened, but then the red echidna glanced at the menu. "Actually, I want the skinned hedgehog with vegetables on the side and shrimp!"
Shadow and Amy gasped.
Sonic's jaw dropped. His eyes narrowed. "Hmm, actually, I change MY mind too! I want the oven-baked echidna with wonton noodles!!"
"I want the cooked hedgehog with mild barbeque sauce and fruits on the side!!"
"I want echidna slices!!"
Tikal and Knuckles gasped at Sonic. Knuckles pointed a gloved finger at him. "BARBARIAN!!! CANNIBAL!!"
"I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S THE CANNIBAL!!" Sonic screamed, leaping over the bus and onto the M.E.'s Guardian. "TAKE THIS!!" Sonic gave Knuckles a powerful kick to the gut.
"OWW!! WELL, GETTA LOADA THIS!!" cried Knuckles, giving Sonic a hard punch to his jaw. Both continued fighting in a little cloud next to the table.
Tails blinked several times but then looked to the floor. "Wow!! Five bucks!!" the kitsune said happily, bending down and picking up the five dollar bill underneath the chair.
"DIE, KNUCKLES!!"
"EAT MY FIST, SONIC!!"
"I *found* five bucks!!"
Eggman sighed. "Deja Vu..."
"YOU CANNIBAL!!"
"YOU BARBARIAN!!"
"I found five bucks!"
"GAAAAHH!!!"
"AAARGHGHHH!!!!"
"I found five bucks!"
"OWW!! GET OFF MY DREADLOCKS!!"
"I'M GONNA GNAW THESE OFF!!"
"I found five bucks!!"
"(bites)"
"OH GOD!! THAT WAS MY EAR!!! GET OFF MY EAR, YA STUPID ECHIDNA!!!"
Tikal gasped and slapped Sonic. "Thou shalt not insult echidnas! Fool!"
"I found five bucks!!"
The waiter from before came back. Knuckles and Sonic saw him and jumped in their seats before they got kicked out. "Hello! Whaddya wanna eat?"
Rouge sighed. "I guess I'll order for all of you--"
"WE WANT EVERYTHIIIING!!" Eggman yelled.
"WE DON'T WANT EVERYTHING!!" everybody yelled back to Eggman.
"Okay!! I'll order!!" Rouge yelled. "Fried rice, crispy chicken, deep fried squid, any kind of salad, chicken corn cream soup, and... uhhhh.... that beef thing with the broccoli!!" The bat swiped all the menus from everybody and handed them to the waiter. "That's it!!"
"How about drinks?"
"Oh... well, fruit punch for me."
"I want chocolate milk!" Amy and Tails yelled.
"Brisk, bay-bee!" Shadow said, jumped up on the table, winked, and gave a thumbs up to a camera nearby. Everybody scooted away from him.
"Orange juice!" Tikal said.
"Coffee!" Eggman said. Everybody stared at him. "What?! I need my caffeine!!"
"Coke!" Sonic said.
"Pepsi!" Knuckles said.
"All righty!" The waiter walked away.
"Coke is better..." Sonic muttered. Knuckles overheard him.
"What?! No! Pepsi!"
"COKE!"
"PEPSI!!"
"YAAARGHH!!"
"GAAAHHH!!"
They leaped on each other and began to fight once again.
"Is that all you do?! Fight?!" Amy asked.
"CCCOOOOKKEEE!!"
"PPPEEPPPSSIIII!!"
Tails got out of his seat. "I'll be right back!" then he sped out of the restaurant, money in hand. The waiter came back with trays of food. He put them down on the table, and another guy came by to drop off their drinks. Knuckles and Sonic stopped fighting and sat down on their seats.
Eggman's eyes widened. "... Food..."
"People! Hurry before Eggman takes all the food!!" Tikal yelled. Everybody began diving for the food and putting it on their trays, leaving enough for Eggman and Tails.
"Hey!" Eggman pouted.
"There's still some for you," Amy said as she stuffed some of her salad in her mouth.
"Deep fried squuiiiddd...." said Shadow. "So... wonderful... and the taste..."
Everybody stared at him.
"What?! It's good!"
Tails came strolling back into the restaurant with a plastic bag and something in it. He sat down in the table, took his portion of food, and began gobbling down while everyone stared at him. The kitsune looked up in annoyance.
"What?!"
"What's in that plastic bag?"
Tails blinked, and then hid the bag behind him. "O-o-oh, n-nothing!"
Tikal glanced at it. "It looks big. And bulky."
"It's nothing! Can we just eat our food?"
"... Oh fine."
Everybody continued eating while wondering about what was inside Tails' bag. After awhile, everybody forgot about it except Eggman. He sneakily snatched it while Tails wasn't looking.
"Hey!! Give that back!!"
"Nah ah ah, I wanna take a look." Eggman reached inside the bag and pulled out a huge Keroppi stuffed plushie. (A/N: Do any of you know who Keroppi is? ^^;; He's my fav Sanrio character! He's a cute widdle froggy, yes he is! I actually have a small plushie of him holding up the letter "N" for Nicole! It's so cute; my brother gave it to me... okay, now I'm rambling...)
"What is that?" Knuckles asked.
"It's a stuffed animal, duh!" Shadow said. Everybody gasped and faced him. "What?"
"OH MY GOD!! SHADOW SAID SOMETHING SMART!" Sonic yelled and pointed a finger at the black and red hedgehog.
"I know!! Isn't that great?!"
"But you usually don't say smart things."
"I know!! Isn't that great?!"
"... Nevermind."
"Eggmaaaan! Gimme it!!" Tails yelled while reaching for the plushie. Ivo handed it back, along with the plastic bag.
"Why do you have a Keroppi doll anyway?"
"I threw away Shelly, the anaconda, and ripped off Hello Kitty's head."
Everybody scooted away from him.
"Riiiight!!"
Soon enough, they were finished with their lunch and decided to go home. The Sonic Crew went into Knuckles' SUV and were on their way to the freeway.
A certain song started playing on the radio. Amy gasped and said to Knuckles, "Turn it up! Turn it up! I love this song!!" She began singing along...
"Whyyyyy!!!
Should I caaaaare!!!
Cuz you weren't there!!
When I was scared!!
I was so alooone!!
Yooouuu!!
You need 'ta listeeen!!
I'm starting to trip!!!
I'm losing my grip!!
And I'm in this thing aloooone!!!"
"Ack! Turn down the radio!" Sonic screamed. Rouge happily turned down the radio.
"What was that?! Avril Lavigne?!" Knuckles screamed. The red light turned green and they continued on.
"Yeah! She's great!" Amy beamed.
"Well..." Tikal muttered, "Yeah, she's a pretty girl and she has a good voice, but I hate the image she's giving... she's being someone she's not... pfftt..."
"Amy, don't tell me you like Britney Spears," Rouge said.
The pink hedgehog scrunched her face. "... Eww. No. I wouldn't go down to THAT level."
Shadow leaned on the seats of the first backseat. "Heh, Tikal, if you don't like the image Avril Lavigne's giving, imagine Britney Spears!!"
"Oh God Shadow, don't mention it. Please."
"Those pop stars are so full of crap," Rouge laughed.
Amy leaned against the front seat. "What kind of music do you like anyway, Rouge?"
"Well, a little bit of jazz... and rap. Lotsa rap. And rock."
"You, Tikal?"
Tikal tilted her head. "Um... some pop and rock."
"You, Shadow?"
"I like rock. A lot. DUUUR, lil' Amy!" Shadow said, giving Amy's forehead a poke.
"o_O Riiight. Eggman?"
"I don't listen to music much."
Everybody gasped. "YOU DON'T LISTEN TO MUSIC?!"
"Not much."
Amy raised an eyebrow and faced Knuckles. "How about you?"
"I like rap."
"You, Sonikku?"
"Uuuhhm.... rock, pop, rap, etc."
"Ooooaaah... sing me a song, Sonikku!" Amy giggled and petted his spikes. Sonic moved his head out of Amy's reach.
"No touchy the spikes!"
"Why?"
"Once, Kaiba poked them, and her finger started bleeding."
Shadow suddenly butted in. "So, you don't want her finger to be pricked?"
"Well, no."
"OOAAH, SO THAT MEANS YOU LIKE HER!! HOW CUUUTE!!"
Sonic pushed Shadow out the window.
-
-
"Hey! Wait!!" Shadow yelled at the retreating SUV. He scrambled up and skated beside the car, on the left side. "Knuckles!"
"Hehehe!" laughed the echidna. He pulled the car over and allowed Shadow to get in.
"DON'T PUSH ME OUT THE CAR!!" Shadow yelled to Sonic. "NOW I GOTS A BOO BOO ON MY ARM!!!"
"HAHA!!" Tails yelled.
"... Oh, can I see your Keroppi plushie?"
"No."
"Dangit!!"
"We're here!" Knuckles said as he put the car on 'park' in their apartment's garage. Everybody exited the SUV.
"Hey, wanna go over to our apartment?" Shadow asked the others.
"This apartment *is* our apartment," Tikal said flatly.
"No! I mean mine and Sonic's apartment."
"Oh okay!"
So, everybody went out of the garage and went to Shad and Sonic's apartment room, number 368, on the third floor. Shadow took out the keys and tried to unlock the door.
"Hey, it won't open..." the black and red hedgehog grunted as he tried to open the door.
"Ah, gimme that!" Sonic said as he snatched the keys and swiftly opened the door to their apartment.
Everybody entered and was greeted by the surprisingly clean room.
"With Shadow being insane and all, I thought this would be more messier," Eggman said. Shadow smacked him on the head with the T.V. remote.
"Shush! I may be insane, but I'm not a messy person!"
Sonic snickered. "You should see his room."
"SHUTTUP!!!"
Tails leaped in front of the GameCube, turned it on, and grabbed one of four controllers. "Super Smash Brothers Melee!! I'm playing as Fox!"
Sonic reached for a controller and picked a character. "I'm Mario!"
"I'm Link!" Shadow said.
Rouge grinned and took the last controller. "I'm Samus!!"
The boys looked at Rouge. "Hah! You're gonna loose, girlie!"
She snickered. "We'll see about that!"
-
-
"Hah!! I woon!!" Rouge screamed, dropping the controller and doing a victory dance.
Tails, Sonic and Shadow glared at her.
"REMATCH!!" Tails yelled.
And there was a rematch.
-
3 hours later...
7:15pm
-
Everybody had at least played SSBM once, and they were totally addicted to the game. There was a sudden knock on the door.
Tikal, Knuckles, Eggman and Amy were playing SSBM; Tikal as Zelda, Amy as Peach, Knuckles as Roy, and Eggman as Bowser.
"Get the door, Shadow!" Sonic said from the kitchen that was connected to the living room.
"Okay!" the black and red hedgehog walked up to the door and opened it. There was a red-brown fox there, holding a box. "Uh, hi! Who are you?"
"Hello, I'm David Chingaling, and I'd like to ask... would you like to adopt a baby?" the fox, David, opened the box and there was a small light blue female baby hedgehog wrapped in a green blanket.
Shadow's eyes widened, and he took the baby in his arms. "How cuuuute!!"
"Yes. Cute. Would you like to adopt it?"
"o_O Adopt it?! Well..." Shadow poked his head in the house. "SOOOOOONIIIIIIIIIIC!!!" he yelled.
"WHAT?!" Sonic screamed from the kitchen.
"THERE'S A BABY HERE!! WANNA ADOPT IT?! IT LOOKS SO MUCH LIKE YOU!!"
Amy overheard Shadow, gasped, dropped the controller, and then ran to the doorway where Shadow stood. She glanced at the baby hedgehog in Shadow's arms. "Oh my god! It's Floofyshnuff!!" She reached over and held the baby hedgehog.
The teenage blue hedgehog made his way to the doorway and saw the baby. "Wow. It does look like me."
"It's our future daughter, Sonic!" Amy giggled. "Floofyshnuff!"
Sonic fell over. "I DON'T WANNA NAME OUR DAUGHTER FLOOFYSHNUFF!! WE'RE NEVER GONNA HAVE A DAUGHTER!! I DON'T LIKE YOU IN *THAT* WAY ANYWAY!!"
Amy giggled. "You know you want me."
"WHAT?! NO!!"
Shadow watched as the two other hedgehogs battled verbally. Sonic screamed things while Amy responded cutely with flirty and witty phrases. He took the baby from Amy's arms and handed it back to the fox standing at the doorway. "No thank you."
David the fox smiled. "Okay then." He put the baby in the box and proceeded to go to the next apartment room.
Shadow shut the door and headed into the kitchen to get a snack. Amy and Sonic were still "fighting" near the doorway.
"MUAAA HA HA HA HAAA!!" Eggman screamed, leaping and dancing around. "I WON!! I KICKED YOUR B-U-T-T-S!!"
Tikal sighed. "Like, whatever!"
Suddenly, there was another knock. Sonic, since he was near the door, answered it. There was the mailman.
"Hello! Is this the Hedgehog Residence? Home of Sonic Hedgehog and Shadow Robotnik-Hedgehog?"
Sonic nodded. "Yeah."
"Here." the mailman handed Sonic an envelope.
"Why is there a mailman at 7:30pm anyway?"
"U-u-um, I-I have to go! Bye bye!" the mailman screamed, looking around frantically for a way to escape, but then finally decided to jump off the railing. And down three stories he went. o_O;;
Sonic raised an eyebrow. "Whatever. Hey Shad, we have mail!"
The black and red hedgehog came to him chewing a banana. "Yeah? From who?"
"I dunno."
Shadow peered over Sonic's shoulder as he opened it. It exploded in their faces.
"Ack!" Shadow cried, wiping his face. "What was that?!"
"Explosive mail," Sonic muttered.
There was a voice coming from the envelope. "NEVER GO INTO MY ANIME STORE AGAIN!!!"
Everybody in the room sweatdropped.
-----~*~-----
Okay! Yay! A long chapter, finally!
In the next chapter, should I start out in Tails and Knuckles' apartment room? Or how about the girls? Or maybe Eggman? You guys decide!
... Yeah, so this wasn't that funny...
~L-Gurl
