Rememberance
Shadow & rouge in:
Remembrance
Rain was pounding on the roof tops that day. Everyone was now leaving from work including Rouge the bat who works for the president. She was exhausted from all the missions she had to do that week, she barely got any sleep since her mind has been on a hedgehog named Shadow. 2 years ago he gave up his life to save earth from the SCA. He used the rest of his energy on the chaos control him and Sonic had performed. Ever since then she always thought about him but the others seemed to have forgotten about him. Rouge frowned at the thought. Why would they forget about him? Rouge thought, he gave up his life to save us all and they forget about him.
Once she made it to club Rouge, she opened the door and walked in. she shivered from the cold that greeted her when she entered the building. 'I seriously gotta get Tails to fix that stupid heater, it's freezing in here,' she said throught gritted teeth. She threw her keys her on the nearest table and walked into the kitchen to make some coffee. She opened a cupboard that contained the coffee beans. She scooped some of the beans and stuck it into the coffee maker. She turned it on and waited for it. Her mind filled with thoughts of Shadow. She liked him even though he was created by Eggman's grandfather, there was something different about him compare to all the villains she faced. She wasn't sure what it was just that she cared for him a lot. More then jewels which was a miracle for her.
After a few minutes the cup of coffee was done. She pulled it out and poured it in cup. She blew on it and took a sip. It was nice and hot for a very cold day. She walked out into the living room and turned the TV on. She changed it to channel 3 and sat down and took another sip of coffee. They were talking about Eggman's escape from jail...again. What else was new. Rouge suddenly felt a chill. Someone was watching her. Who? And why? She stood up, walked to the fire place and picked up a poker that was still hot from earlier. She turned the hallway light on and walked down the hallway with the poker ready for anything. She turned to her bathroom and opened the door slowly. She stuck her hand through the door first, turned on the light and walked in slowly. "Hello is anyone here?" Rouge called. No answer. She turned around slowly and before her eyes she saw a figure of a hedgehog in front of her. She gasped, swung the poker and hit the figure in the face square in the face. "ow Rouge that hurt, jeesh you can't even give a friend a hello just a smack across the face!" the figure said. Suddenly it occurred to Rouge that the person she smacked was the person she thought was dead. "Shadow?" she asked, tears forming in her eyes.
"Who'd you think it was? The milk man?" Shadow asked sarcastically.
"No, you're suppose to be dead," Rouge said, lowing the poker down. "Yeah that's what I thought," Shadow said.
"Until?" Rouge asked.
" I noticed I had enough energy for one last Chaos Control so once I hit the atmosphere I used it," Shadow explained.
"So how long have you been hanging out here?" Rouge asked raising an eyebrow.
"2-3 weeks."
" YOU IDIOT WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME EARLIER?" Rouge shouted, wrapping her hands around his neck and shook him hard.
"OW Rouge that hurts." Shadow said pushing her off.
"Well answer the question!" Rouge demanded, stepping on Shadow's foot.
"Ow, alright fine just don't do that again!"
"Spill!"
"I didn't want to bug you, you seemed busy."
"No fake. I've been working on missions so I could keep my mind off you and your stupid plan."
" Hey my stupid plan saved this planet from the SCA!"
"Yeah and it worked. Earth is now saved from Egghead's stupid plan but what about me?"
"I don't understand. What are you talking about?" shadow asked.
" Shadow..I..well I was worried about you. I thought you were gone forever," Rouge said.
"Hey so did I but I'm still alive, right? I'm still skin and bones. I'm not dead... not yet anyways," Shadow said, "I'm up and walking around." Shadow got up and ran past Rouge then stopped in front of her, "See told ya," Shadow said facing her. Rouge walked up to him and kicked him in the shin. "OW what the ..."
" That's for not telling me 3 weeks ago you little hedgehog!"
"Little"
"Ok medium you know I'll stick with jerk. You are a jerk, a brat and a liar!"
"But...but..but..?"
"No 'buts'!' Rouge shouted, " I missed you Shadow. Ever since that day I haven't been able to concentrate on my work. The only thing that I thought about was you!" tears formed in her eyes again " and you hide from me?"
Shadow looked at her. Was she saying that she liked him? " Rouge I don't understand why are you crying?"
" Shadow it's because I love you!"
Shadow's eyes widened, " Huh?"
" I love you. I love you more then any of those gems that I own. The day you saved me from prison island I couldn't keep my mind off you. You were all that I ever thought about,"
Shadow continued to stare " Um Thanks I guess,"
Rouge's ears flattened " You mean you don't feel the same way about me? she asked. Shadow smiled a little
"Yeah I guess it's just that I don't want anyone to get hurt because of me," Shadow answered.
Rouge frowned, " I see, so I guess I've been praying for nothing then?"
" Rouge, I.."
"No Shadow I understand your love for Maria is to strong for a thief like me."
" No Rouge I didn't mean that!"
" It's ok you love Maria. I guess there isn't a place in your heart for me to be a part of." Rouge said " You better go before Knuckles sees you walking around."
Shadow nodded, smiled and left the room.
Once Rouge Knew for sure that he was gone she smiled " You'll always hold a spot in my heart and my memory. I'll remember you for who you are not what you are," Rouge said looking out the window.
Shadow stopped, turned around and smiled' Good bye bat-girl I'll always remember you' he thought and continued walking. As Rouge took one more glimpse at Shadow she blew him a kiss and winked before shutting the blinds and closing the whole world from her view.
