Disclaimer: I'm only saying it once, and don't flame me saying that i didn't have it in my story, because i do. I don't own anything that'd you reconize. Sonic and Co. belong to Sega and Archie comics, as far as i know anyways. I own Akima the Hedgehog, Megumi the Fox, Kurramo the Rabbit, and the story idea. I'm not sure if anyone has came up with an idea like this before, but i'm posting it. I also went over this chapter and fixed any and all mistakes that i could find, so enjoy! Also, i have went back, and have fixed some things in this chapter.

)( Chapter Start )(
It was a dark and stormy night. ((Aren't they always?)) A lone figure crept into the darkness of what seemed to be some hidden laboratory of sorts. The lights came on, reveailing the figure to be none other than Eggman himself. His hand reached up, and stroaked his mustache as he looked at two green liquid filled tanks that glowed with a slightly strange light, a darkened figure hidden within each tube.
"Well, well, well. Let's see what my grandfather left me." He said as he walked over to a control panel, and input a bit of data. A few moments later, the tubes would be heard as they were drained of their liquids, leaving the figures at the bottom. He pushed a button, and the wires that were attached to the figures dispatched themselves, and the tubes opened up.
"Shadow may have been a failure, but these two should do nicely." Eggman said to himself, his eyes hidden by a pair of dark glasses. "Come! Awaken! There is much to be done!" Eggman said as he watched the two figures step almost, uncertainly onto the floor, and looked around.
The smaller figure, which appeared to be a female chocolate colored fox, looked at the computer and equipment curiously, and almost excitedly as her four tails swished around behind her figure; her icey blue gaze attempting to asorb as much into her brain as she could of the lab around her. She looked a bit like Tails, with the exception that she was a dark chocolaty brown where he was yellow/orange, she had four tails instead of two, and her hair was a soft silvery white that fell about waist length.
The other, who crossed her arms and eyed Eggman, was definantly a hedgehog. She looked much like Amy, perhaps a little taller and curvier than the pink hedgehog; this hedgehog was a dark red, however, with black stripes along her quills, and a large patch of purple on her chest, in a star shape. Her long dark, almost blood colored quills shifted elegantly against her waist; her deep golden gaze, outlined by natural black, narrowing at the evil doctor. "Who are you, and why should we listen to you?" She asked coldly.
Eggman sputtered in fury as the red one dared to defy him. "I am Doctor Ivo Robotnik! Or Eggman as people like to call me. My grandfather, Professor Gerald created you, and left you to me!" He said, almost proudly as his own arms crossed against his chest. "You will do as i say! Or else!"
Akima, the red hedgehog, and Megumi, the fox, glared at Robotnick as they stalked towards him, cracking their knuckles. "We don't take orders from someone like you!" They both said, as they cornered Eggman within the lab. "What are you doing?! You're supposed to listen to me! No!" Screamed out Eggman as the two women pounced on him.
)( Emerald Beach )(
Sonic lay streatched out on a beach chair as he watched the waves roll against the white sands. "Sonic! Sonic!" Someone yelled, as he twitched an ear, glancing over to a winded looking Tails as he held up a newspaper. "You're not going to belive this! Someone got to Eggman and SERIOUSLY hurt him! He was on the verge of dying when he was dropped off at the Station Square Hospital!"
"No way!" Sonic nearly yelled as he grabbed the newspaper, looking at the headlines. "Eggman Found Early This Morning! Who Could Have Done it?!" It read, as it went off about how he was in I.C.U. and stuff like that, with a picture of him laying there and a couple G.U.N. Officers keeping watch over him.
"Well! You know what this means Tails!....Vacation time! Oh yeah!" Sonic yelled as he jumped up, running around the area a moment in joy. "But Sonic! What if whoever did this to Eggman, comes after us? What if they try to take over the world?!" Tails yelled to the blue blur as it finally stopped a moment, thinking. "Well, then, we'll go after them! I mean, how hard can it be? Just sit back and relax Tails, we're not gonna get another chance like this for a while." Sonic said as he grabbed his magazine from the sand beside his chair, and sat back down in it. Tails just shook his head as he slowly walked back towards the hotel, his mind wandering a bit.
)( Station Square Mall )(
Akima stood outside of a store at the mall, waiting for Megumi to hurry up. "Come on! You're taking too long!" She said, calmly, even though she felt like just grabbing her friend and yanking her back 'home'. Akima crossed her arms, a foot tapping in annoyance for a few moments, before Megumi walked out of the store.
"Allright, allright, i'm done. How do I look?" She asked, as she did a little twirl for her older friend. Megumi was well, very pretty looking, Akima refused to use anything other than that when complementing another girl, even if it was in her mind. Megumi stood there, her small sleek looking form clad in a pair of simple short blue shorts, a white tube top shirt with two intertwining cherries on the front, a pair of soft white gloves, and a pair of simple soft blue sneakers, with a white vertical strip down the middle of them. "You look fine." Akima said, rolling her eyes at her younger friend.
"Well, I wish that -you- would have went and got something." Megumi said, eyeing Akima. Akima wore a dark purple head band, to keep stray quills out of her eyes, a pair of white gloves, a pair of silver bracelets, and some jet shoes, which looked strikingly similar to Shadow's. Akima's shoes, however, were a female design, and where Shadow's was red, her's was black, where his was black, her's was red, also, where his was white, hers were dark purple, and where his was golden, hers was silver.
)(
Rouge blinked a moment as she walked through the mall, eyeing a red person. 'No clothes..it must be a guy...no girl in their right mind wouldn't not wear clothes...and...it looks like..Knuckles?! Who is that he's talking to?! Well, i'll show them..' She thought as a small smirk formed against her lips, walking over to Akima, failing to notcice the hedgehog ears, and the black streaks, as she reached out and slid her hand against Akima's ass with a small purr. "Hey Knuckles, missed me?"
)(
"I don't need clothes, their unimportant, my fur covers everything, and that's all that matters to me." Akima says with a roll of her eyes, before yelping loudly and whirling around to glare at a white bat. Rouge blinked alot in confusion. She had thought that Akima was her favorite red Echidna that she loved to torment; but now that she was closer, she could see that she made a mistake...a VERY big mistake. "I'm so sorry! I thought you were someone else." Rouge said, smiling a bit apologetically.
Akima just rolled her eyes, and crossed her arms once more. "Just be sure to keep your hands to yourself in the future....or you won't have one.." Akima said as she walked away from the bat, still a bit miffed that -someone-, and a female at that, had went and grabbed her ass. Megumi looked at Rouge, smiling softly. "I'm sorry, she's been a bit grumpy lately.." She said before she ran off after Akima, yelling for her to wait up.
)( Station Square Dock )(
Rouge sighed as she thought back to earlier that day, trying to figure out why she had sorely mistaken that girl for Knuckles. "Hmm...let's see...She was red, like him...only...darker...The way she was standing also reminded me of him a bit. I don't know -HOW- i missed those ears though.." She said with another sigh, sitting on the small boat dock near the water between Twinkle Park, and The Hotel.
"Who are you talking about?" Amy asked as she took a seat beside Rouge, nearly scaring her with her sudden appearance. "No one really. I was just thinking out loud." Rouge said as Amy nodded. "I met a couple of strange people today at the mall, and i think i might have angered one of them. Oh well.." Amy blinked, looking at Rouge. "What kind of strangers?" She asked, her emerald gaze looking out over the water as the sun started to set, making the whole ocean seem to be alilve in color.
"Well, they were like us....You don't really see many of us Furries around here, well, at least not that i know of. There's nothing but humans here." Rouge said as she continued to think. "Like us? Are they guys? Are they cute?" Amy asked, almost excitedly. "No, they were girls. One was red, with black streaks in her hair..she didn't wear any clothes that i saw of, and i mistook her for Knuckles.." Rouge said embarrassedly.
"Oh, i bet she didn't like that.." Amy said with a slight giggle. "The other one was a fox, strangely enough, she had four tails...She seemed kind of nice." Rouge stood up, and stretched a moment. "Wow! FOUR tails?! That must be cool!" Amy said as she followed Rouge's lead, blinking a moment as she sun settled down past the water's surface, the evening turning into night. "I guess i better head on home. See you later Rouge!" Amy called as Rouge waved back, taking to the air to go see if she could go find some information on the two girls from earlier.
)( Mystic Ruins )(
Shadow was walking through the Mystic Ruins when he stopped a moment. 'What was it..?' He thought and strained his ears to listen around him, blocking out all of the surrounding jungle sounds. 'I know i heard something..' He tensed a moment, as he heard it again, a faint scream, comming from the direction of the old ruins. His ruby gaze narrowed as he shot towards the area.
)(
"Argh! No! I'm sorry! Don't kill meeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!" Megumi yelled out, trying to contain her laughter at Akima's look of surprise that Megumi had actually been able to hit her with a paintball, and was now glaring at the younger girl. Akima held up what appeared to be some kind of laser cannon, but it was actually, a regular paintball gun, that Megumi had fixed up. She ran over to Megumi, tackling the girl as she held her down, pointing the barrel of the gun at her friend's head, a large, almost sadistic looking grin crossed her face. "Prepare to die..."
Megumi yelped and pretended to be as scared as a little rabbit in a wolf's gaze. "Oh no! Help! Someone help! She's gonna killlll me!" Megumi screamed out, trying to keep her scared look upon her face, and not break out into laughter as they played their usual game of paintball war.
)(
Shadow heard it again! He came upon the ruins, looking around a bit causiously for a moment before he caught the scene of a frightened fox girl under another, a red hedgehog, who had a laser pointed at her head. His eyes narrowed as he leap into action, tackling Akima off of Megumi who blinked in surprise. "I won't let you kill an innocent!" He growled out, taking up a fighting stance as Akima grumbled and stood up, pointing the 'laser' at her own head.
"Look, you idiot, we're only playing." She said as she pulled the trigger to the gun, and a large ball of neon green paint splattered across her head. "God, what IS it with people today?! First some annoying bat person grabs my ass, and now some guy trying to -protect- my friend." She said with a roll of her eyes, throwing her hands up in frusteration.
"Akima...I don't think he ment any harm....from what we were doing, and how it looked, someone who didnt know us, would have thought that you were really trying to kill me." Megumi said innocently, as Shadow continued to eye Akima cautiously. "Yeah, whatever.." She said and ran up the steps of the ruins at a slow pace, and climbing up to the top of the 'tower' there.
Megumi sighed as she watched Akima, shaking her head a moment, before walking over to Shadow. "Please forgive her, she's had a rough day today..and we were really only playing.." She said softly, in an almost childlike voice; her four tails swaying somewhat behind her. "I'm sorry as well. I guess i did kind of jump to conclusions. Are you sure you're alright?" Shadow asked, looking at Megumi, finally noticing the neon green paint all over her.
"Yeah, i'm fine. We have to go though. See you some other time!" Megumi said with a smile, as she rotated her four tails, and flew up over to where Akima was; grabbing her friend's arms as they flew off into the distance over the cliff, where one of Eggman's bases used to be. Shadow just stared off at them, before walking out of the ruins, going back to what he was doing prior, nothing.
)( Later )(
Megumi sighed as she looked around the old base, then at Akima who stood there with her arms crossed, not looking very happy. "Awww...come on 'Kima....he only thought i was in danger..." Megumi said with a small smile, looking at her 'sister'. "Hey! I know! Don't look so glum." Megumi started, before Akima glared at her. "Oh, right, that's how you're supposed to be.." She says, rolling her eyes a moment.
"As i was saying, we need to find Kurramo, god knows where these human idiots put him at. We need to find him before Ivo wakes up, don't want him to ruin our plans." Megumi says, as she looked through various files in the computer databank. "I mean, if he found us, he might know where Kurr is.." Megumi states as she glanced over at Akima, who was leaning against a wall with her eyes closed, either sleeping, or thinking.
"Have you checked anything under any of the files from Professor Gerald?" Akima asks, as she opened her golden gaze to look at Megumi's own icy blue. "Of course! Why didn't i think of that earlier?!" Megumi cried as she started to furiously type in commands into the computer at a fast rate, not taking her eyes off the data-filled screen.
"Hmmm.....says here that G.U.N. has him...you know what that means, 'Kima?" the chocolate colored fox asked, looking to the older hedgehog. "Yeah, 'Gumi...It means we get to have a little..fun.." She says in reply, a large almost evil grin sliding across her lips as she cracked her knuckles. "A whole lot of fun.."
)( G.U.N. Facility )(
"Allright, as much as we would like to have some fun, as you would call it. " Megumi says into her headset with a built in microphone, that sent her words to Akima. "But we need to get in, and out, as fast as possible, and as quiet as can be, we can always bust some robots another day." Akima grumbled something unhearable as she sighed. "Yeah, right, so Kurramo is in sector Zeta 3?" Akima asked as she darted quickly around the halls, keeping out of sight from the cameras and random robots that passed by.
Akima made it into the area where Kurramo was, her golden gaze narrowing as she looked around. She walked over to his stasis tube and keyed in the release sequence, golden eyes watching as dark Emerald colored orbs gazed back at her a moment, before blinking. Kurramo stood up out of his tube, his sapphire blue colored furr dripping from the liquid that had been inside of the tube.
Kurramo was a tall furrie, taller than Akima was. He had dark blue furr, and even darker blue spiky ish hair that fell to about his waist, ending just above his fluffyesque rabbit tail. He wore nothing, not even gloves or shoes; one of his rabbit ears stood straight up..ish..and the other flopped over, almost like one of those playboy bunnie insignias.
"What the hell took you so long?" Asked Kurramo, his voice deep with a hint of a Russian accent to it. Akima rolled her eyes at her big 'brother' shrugging. "Megumi wanted me to go all stealth.." She says, looking him over. "Common, let's blow this place..Blow it sky high.." She says with a large grin as she tossed a detonater type thing up and down in her hand as Kurramo nodded. "Yes, let's get the hell out of here."
Both Kurramo and Akima ran their way out of the base, destroying any robot that got in their way as they made their way out. Kurramo was fast, but not as fast as Akima was, and she only went as slow as she did, to make sure he got out of the base. Once outside, and a hell of way from the base, Akima grinned as she sat back in a tree, watching as the base blew up with a resounding 'BAM!!' sound.
"Come on you guys, let's go before any more G.U.N. people, or those 'hero' people show up." Megumi says, as she sat in a jeep, watching as Kurramo and Akima jumped in as well. "'Kima gets off on blowing things up..doesn't she?" Kurramo asked with a grin, looking at his flusteredish looking sister. "I do not." Akima said emotionlessly, with a slight red tint to her face. "Surreee you don't, and i'm the queen of the universe." He says with a roll of his emerald eyes, watching the trees zoom by. "Then you're one UGLY queen." - "Hey!"
)( Abandoned Eggman Base A.K.A. 'Home' )(
Kurramo looked at himself in a mirror, emerald eyes narrowing slightly as he inspected his reflection. He wore a pair of plain white shoes, and white gloves, but instead of the rings around his wrists and ankles, like Akima and a few others had, he had studed anklets and wrist bracelet thingys. Also, around his neck, there was a spiked collar, and on his right arm was a regular collar type thing, only studded instead of spiked; in his right rabbit ear, was a single golden hoop type earing.
He wore a pair of skintight, or furtight, black leather pants, that allowed his blue rabbit tail to poke through in the back, and a black also skintight tanktop netshirt that showed off his muscular figure; an oversized tooth poking out of his mouth, in a rabbit sort of way, that made him look irrisitably cute. "Aww, stop worrying Kurr, you look fine." Megumi says as she glomped onto her older brother, hugging him for all she was worth, having missed him. He chuckled and hugged her back, looking around a bit. "Hey, i have an idea, let's go find Akima and tell her.." He says, picking Megumi up and setting her on his shoulder.
)( Emerald Beach )(
It was a bright sunny day, not a cloud in the sky, and boy, was it hot as hell. Nope, nothing could break Amy and Rouge's spirits as they dragged the boys off to the beach for the day, without much complaint from them. Amy laughed as she splashed at Tails in the water, said younger boy waving to Sonic who was glaring at the water like it was Eggman, or worse. Knuckles sat up in one of those palm trees, watching out incase of some enemy, and Shadow, he sat under the shade of said tree, while Rouge sunbathed out on a beach towel.
Not like the boys wore any clothes, much less swimming trunks, so Amy and Rouge were the only ones who wore swimsuits, Rouge a small pink bikini, in hopes of catching Knuckles' eye, and Amy, a red bikini as well, but with white dots scattered around on it. Tails laughed and dunked Amy, watching her sputter back up and glare playfully at him "Ohhh! Just you wait Tails! I'll get you back!" She yells at him, smiling and waved to Sonic. "Hey! Sonic! Come on in! The water's fine!" She laughed at the look he gave her, which seemed to scream out 'Are you crazy?!' and went back to glaring at the water.
)(
Meanwhile, a little bit aways from the group of friends, Megumi, Akima, and Kurramo were at the beach as well. Akima sat under a tree, a book in hand as she quietly read, golden gaze looking up over her book to watch her siblings a moment, before going back to her story. Megumi and Kurramo were chasing each other around with super soakergun things; Megumi wearing a red tube top bikini styled top, with two white cherries in the front intertwined, her bottoms, were like spandex shorts, and were white, with red cherries all over it. ((Megumi has a thing for cherries.)) Kurramo had ditched his other outfit, collar and all, as he ran around, wearing a a pair of black swimtrunks with red shimmery planets, and blue shimmery cresent moons on it.
A bit later, Kurramo and Megumi came and sat down beside Akima, looking bored. "There's nothing to do..Oh! I know! We can have a race?!' Megumi yelled out loudly with excitement, causing Sonic and Shadow to look over at them with a somewhat interested look at the word 'race'. Akima smirked as she saved her page, and closed her book, setting it down. "You know..you won't win.." She says, her thin form stretching out as she did a few warm ups, she didn't want to pull a muscle, now did she?
"Allright, first one to the ice cream man, and back, wins!" Megumi says with a large smile, drawing a line in the sand as she, Akima, and Kurramo settled behind it. "Allright, when the book falls, we start." Kurramo says with a grin, ignoring Akima's glare as he tossed the book high into the air.
All eyes were on the book, even Sonic and the others, before 'SMACK!" it fell onto the ground, Kurramo and Akima darting off, leaving Megumi in their dust. Akima snickered almost evily as she turned to look back at her sister, taunting her. "How does it feel to eat dirt?!" She yelled out as they ran, Akima keeping a slow, yet somewhat fast pace, as she didn't like reveiling her fastness to anyone she didn't know.
Kurramo frowned and sped up, matching Akima's speed as they ran neck and neck, well, as Akima let them. "Hey Kurr, hope you like dust, because you're going to eat it!" she yelled as he grinned at her. "Ha! As if! you won't win this time!" He yelled back at her and ran as fast as he could, passing up Akima a moment.
Akima smirked as she let him think he was winning, before she sped up herself, zooming past him and to the ice cream man. She quickly bought an ice cream cone, and started back towards the finish, waving almost cheerfully at Kurr as he made his way to the ice cream man a few moments later. She also passed up Megumi, who by now knew she wasn't going to win, and was walking the rest of the way.
Akima made her way over the finish line, and looked around a moment, grabbing her book and dusting it off with a grumble, and sitting back down to read it. "What? No rants and raves about how you're the best?" Kurr joked as he and Megumi walked back over to her, eating their own ice cream cones. "Why should i, when you -KNOW- i'm the world's best." Akima says with a smirk, watching the group of furries not to far away, one which she noticed was that male who had the nerve to tackle her the other day..and the bat girl too..who had...touched her.
She visibly twitched at the memory, of another female touching her ass like that, and she was hoping that it would never happen again. "Oh come on, i live to see your rants and ravings at the end of the end of a good race?!" Megumi says, grinning at her older sister. Kurr smirked and grabbed his super soaker, which was filled with ICE cold water, and squirted Akima with it, getting her good and wet.
Akima froze, as she looked at her once dry fur. Her golden eyes narrowed dangerously as she glared at her brother, who saw her look, and started to back up. "Uhm...whoopse?" He says, before turning and fully started to run for his life, which he just got used to having again. "You are SO DEAD!!!" Akima yelled as she jumped up, shaking the water off of her.
Visible black flames surrounded her as her eyes glowed a dark blood red, and in an evil voice stated "Run, puny mortal! For i will KILL you when i catch you?!" She says, fist rising up. ((Think of those animeish women who get all pissed off like, and that's how Akima is?)) Kurr gulped, and ran faster. "Gah! Why did i shoot her?!" He asked himself, before a cold voice yelled out "Akima Daggers!!" Large dark purple energy spear type things circled him from every angle, before the converged on his form, leaving him to lay on the ground twitching.
"Ow..that...seriously fucking hurt.." He mumbled into the sand, looking up to find a pissed off Akima standing over him, slamming her foot into his back. She wasn't really mad or anything, she was just playing around, like she and Megumi did all the time, only, she wasn't afraid to hurt Kurr with her power like she was with Megumi.
Megumi snickered and laughed as she watched her two older siblings, blinking as Sonic and the others started towards them, because they thought she had gone crazy or something. "No! Leave them alone! you'll ruin everything!" She yelled out to them, as Sonic looked at her as if she was crazy too. "You kiddin'?! She's gonna kill him of we don't stop her!" Sonic yelled as he pinted over to them, only to find Akima sitting on Kurr's back, tickling the hell out of him as he laughed and screamed, begging for mercy.
"Ha! Pledge your allegance to me, and you wont die as soon as you would if you weren't?!" Akima yelled with a large grin, Kurr squirming and trying to get her off of him. "But your supremeness! I already AM loyal to you!" He laughed out, sighing in releif as she got up and dusted herself off. "Ha! That's right, you better. No one is greater than i am! For i am the SUPREME lifeform, and no one is my better or equal!" She stated, her foot on his back as she crossed her arms, a smirk upon her lips as she reached up to scratch the end of her nose. "At least that i know of."
"Ah, well, enough fooling around for now.." She says, as she reached down, and helped Kurr to his feet, helping him dust off. "Ha! Supreme lifeform, that's rich. What's next, Goddess of the Universe?" Kurr joked, rolling his eyes. "Geeze, she has a bigger ego than Sonic, Shadow, AND Knuckles combined..!" Amy stated as she got a "Hey!" from Sonic, a "What do you mean ego?!" from Knuckles, and a slight glare from Shadow.
"Well, it is true, boys." Rouge says with a small smile. "Hey, i know you. You're the one i met at the mall the otherday, aren't you?" Rouge asked as she moved closer, to look at Akima. Akima blinked and arched a brow, her arms crossing over her chest as she glared a bit at the bat. "So what if i am? What's it to you?...You're not going to attempt at grabbing my ass again, are you?" She asked, glaring even more at Rouge as she blushed brightly. "Hey! That was an accident! I thought you were someone else!" She says, turning away from the strange hedgehog girl, and "Hmph!"ing as she walked away.
All eyes were on Rouge as she walked away, Akima's more of a glare as Kurr looked at his sister. "So...a girl touched your ass, hm?" Kurr asked, looking back to Rouge a moment. "Kurr..." Akima started warningly, though he didn't heed the warning as he continued. "Did you like it? Or did you shove your foot up her-" "KURRAMO!!!" Akima intterupted, slamming her fist upside his head with a growl. "I'll take that as a no.." Kurr said weakly from the ground, twitching.
Sonic and the others, with the exception of Shadow, sweatdropped as they watched the scene; Shadow just arched a brow in amusement. Kurr stood back up, dusting himself off again, blinking as Amy looked up at him. "Hey, you know. You're kinda cute! Maybe even cuter than Sonic!" She stated, giggling as she looked up at the tall Rabbit. Sonic blinked, and looked at Kurr, and then Amy, and then Kurr again. He had mixed feelings about that comment of hers. Sure, he didn't like her to hang around him all the time, and chase him, but no one, NO ONE was 'cuter' than he was, and it made him jealous that Amy, a fan, would up and start liking someone over him.
Kurr blinked, and blushed slightly. "Uhh, thanks..I guess." He says, ear twitching as his emerald gaze glanced over at his younger sister, well, the baby sister really, as she kept sneaking looks at Tails. "You, have such pretty fur.." She started shyly as she and Tails stood off a little from the others, talking quietly with small glances at one another, and little blushes. "Wow! I didn't know anyone had more tails than i did!" Tails exclaimed as he eyed Megumi's four tails with curiosity.
Akima grumbled and wandered away from the group, well, not too far away, as she leaned against a tree, looking out at the sea, but listening to the conversations going around. "What's the matter faker? Jealous that your fangirl has an interest in someone else?" Shadow teased as Sonic growled and huffed out a "No way!" but still glaring somewhat at Kurr.
'Hmm...that dark hedgehog...he reminds me of project Shadow...' Akima thought, her gaze dulled a moment as she went back into memories, grumbling and mumbling a few words every now and then. Kurr and Megumi blinked as they watched Akima, and wandered over to her, shaking her shoulders to get her from her 'trance'. "What's wrong with her?" Tails asked, as Sonic nodded and Shadow stayed quiet, Amy looking on with worry.
"She'll be ok, she get's like this every now and then when she gets into thinking too much.." Kurr stated as he sighed and slapped Akima across the face, hard. Akima shook out of her deep thoughts, growling and glaring at Kurr as she spit a bit of blood from her mouth. "Did you -have- to do that?" She asked annoyed, before glaring at all the people around her. She didn't like it, she felt like they were trying to close in on her, which they weren't, but Akima had a slight clostrophobia, as she growled and pushed pass her brother and sister, stomping/running away from the group.
Megumi smiled apologetically as she watched Kurr run after their sister. "Heh, sorry about that, gotta go. Maybe we'll see you again. She always get's like this when she's been thinking too much about 'him'." Megumi stated before waving, taking off after her brother and sister before anyone could ask who 'him' was.
)( End Chapter )(

)( Chapter Start )(
It was a dark and stormy night. ((Aren't they always?)) A lone figure crept into the darkness of what seemed to be some hidden laboratory of sorts. The lights came on, reveailing the figure to be none other than Eggman himself. His hand reached up, and stroaked his mustache as he looked at two green liquid filled tanks that glowed with a slightly strange light, a darkened figure hidden within each tube.
"Well, well, well. Let's see what my grandfather left me." He said as he walked over to a control panel, and input a bit of data. A few moments later, the tubes would be heard as they were drained of their liquids, leaving the figures at the bottom. He pushed a button, and the wires that were attached to the figures dispatched themselves, and the tubes opened up.
"Shadow may have been a failure, but these two should do nicely." Eggman said to himself, his eyes hidden by a pair of dark glasses. "Come! Awaken! There is much to be done!" Eggman said as he watched the two figures step almost, uncertainly onto the floor, and looked around.
The smaller figure, which appeared to be a female chocolate colored fox, looked at the computer and equipment curiously, and almost excitedly as her four tails swished around behind her figure; her icey blue gaze attempting to asorb as much into her brain as she could of the lab around her. She looked a bit like Tails, with the exception that she was a dark chocolaty brown where he was yellow/orange, she had four tails instead of two, and her hair was a soft silvery white that fell about waist length.
The other, who crossed her arms and eyed Eggman, was definantly a hedgehog. She looked much like Amy, perhaps a little taller and curvier than the pink hedgehog; this hedgehog was a dark red, however, with black stripes along her quills, and a large patch of purple on her chest, in a star shape. Her long dark, almost blood colored quills shifted elegantly against her waist; her deep golden gaze, outlined by natural black, narrowing at the evil doctor. "Who are you, and why should we listen to you?" She asked coldly.
Eggman sputtered in fury as the red one dared to defy him. "I am Doctor Ivo Robotnik! Or Eggman as people like to call me. My grandfather, Professor Gerald created you, and left you to me!" He said, almost proudly as his own arms crossed against his chest. "You will do as i say! Or else!"
Akima, the red hedgehog, and Megumi, the fox, glared at Robotnick as they stalked towards him, cracking their knuckles. "We don't take orders from someone like you!" They both said, as they cornered Eggman within the lab. "What are you doing?! You're supposed to listen to me! No!" Screamed out Eggman as the two women pounced on him.
)( Emerald Beach )(
Sonic lay streatched out on a beach chair as he watched the waves roll against the white sands. "Sonic! Sonic!" Someone yelled, as he twitched an ear, glancing over to a winded looking Tails as he held up a newspaper. "You're not going to belive this! Someone got to Eggman and SERIOUSLY hurt him! He was on the verge of dying when he was dropped off at the Station Square Hospital!"
"No way!" Sonic nearly yelled as he grabbed the newspaper, looking at the headlines. "Eggman Found Early This Morning! Who Could Have Done it?!" It read, as it went off about how he was in I.C.U. and stuff like that, with a picture of him laying there and a couple G.U.N. Officers keeping watch over him.
"Well! You know what this means Tails!....Vacation time! Oh yeah!" Sonic yelled as he jumped up, running around the area a moment in joy. "But Sonic! What if whoever did this to Eggman, comes after us? What if they try to take over the world?!" Tails yelled to the blue blur as it finally stopped a moment, thinking. "Well, then, we'll go after them! I mean, how hard can it be? Just sit back and relax Tails, we're not gonna get another chance like this for a while." Sonic said as he grabbed his magazine from the sand beside his chair, and sat back down in it. Tails just shook his head as he slowly walked back towards the hotel, his mind wandering a bit.
)( Station Square Mall )(
Akima stood outside of a store at the mall, waiting for Megumi to hurry up. "Come on! You're taking too long!" She said, calmly, even though she felt like just grabbing her friend and yanking her back 'home'. Akima crossed her arms, a foot tapping in annoyance for a few moments, before Megumi walked out of the store.
"Allright, allright, i'm done. How do I look?" She asked, as she did a little twirl for her older friend. Megumi was well, very pretty looking, Akima refused to use anything other than that when complementing another girl, even if it was in her mind. Megumi stood there, her small sleek looking form clad in a pair of simple short blue shorts, a white tube top shirt with two intertwining cherries on the front, a pair of soft white gloves, and a pair of simple soft blue sneakers, with a white vertical strip down the middle of them. "You look fine." Akima said, rolling her eyes at her younger friend.
"Well, I wish that -you- would have went and got something." Megumi said, eyeing Akima. Akima wore a dark purple head band, to keep stray quills out of her eyes, a pair of white gloves, a pair of silver bracelets, and some jet shoes, which looked strikingly similar to Shadow's. Akima's shoes, however, were a female design, and where Shadow's was red, her's was black, where his was black, her's was red, also, where his was white, hers were dark purple, and where his was golden, hers was silver.
)(
Rouge blinked a moment as she walked through the mall, eyeing a red person. 'No clothes..it must be a guy...no girl in their right mind wouldn't not wear clothes...and...it looks like..Knuckles?! Who is that he's talking to?! Well, i'll show them..' She thought as a small smirk formed against her lips, walking over to Akima, failing to notcice the hedgehog ears, and the black streaks, as she reached out and slid her hand against Akima's ass with a small purr. "Hey Knuckles, missed me?"
)(
"I don't need clothes, their unimportant, my fur covers everything, and that's all that matters to me." Akima says with a roll of her eyes, before yelping loudly and whirling around to glare at a white bat. Rouge blinked alot in confusion. She had thought that Akima was her favorite red Echidna that she loved to torment; but now that she was closer, she could see that she made a mistake...a VERY big mistake. "I'm so sorry! I thought you were someone else." Rouge said, smiling a bit apologetically.
Akima just rolled her eyes, and crossed her arms once more. "Just be sure to keep your hands to yourself in the future....or you won't have one.." Akima said as she walked away from the bat, still a bit miffed that -someone-, and a female at that, had went and grabbed her ass. Megumi looked at Rouge, smiling softly. "I'm sorry, she's been a bit grumpy lately.." She said before she ran off after Akima, yelling for her to wait up.
)( Station Square Dock )(
Rouge sighed as she thought back to earlier that day, trying to figure out why she had sorely mistaken that girl for Knuckles. "Hmm...let's see...She was red, like him...only...darker...The way she was standing also reminded me of him a bit. I don't know -HOW- i missed those ears though.." She said with another sigh, sitting on the small boat dock near the water between Twinkle Park, and The Hotel.
"Who are you talking about?" Amy asked as she took a seat beside Rouge, nearly scaring her with her sudden appearance. "No one really. I was just thinking out loud." Rouge said as Amy nodded. "I met a couple of strange people today at the mall, and i think i might have angered one of them. Oh well.." Amy blinked, looking at Rouge. "What kind of strangers?" She asked, her emerald gaze looking out over the water as the sun started to set, making the whole ocean seem to be alilve in color.
"Well, they were like us....You don't really see many of us Furries around here, well, at least not that i know of. There's nothing but humans here." Rouge said as she continued to think. "Like us? Are they guys? Are they cute?" Amy asked, almost excitedly. "No, they were girls. One was red, with black streaks in her hair..she didn't wear any clothes that i saw of, and i mistook her for Knuckles.." Rouge said embarrassedly.
"Oh, i bet she didn't like that.." Amy said with a slight giggle. "The other one was a fox, strangely enough, she had four tails...She seemed kind of nice." Rouge stood up, and stretched a moment. "Wow! FOUR tails?! That must be cool!" Amy said as she followed Rouge's lead, blinking a moment as she sun settled down past the water's surface, the evening turning into night. "I guess i better head on home. See you later Rouge!" Amy called as Rouge waved back, taking to the air to go see if she could go find some information on the two girls from earlier.
)( Mystic Ruins )(
Shadow was walking through the Mystic Ruins when he stopped a moment. 'What was it..?' He thought and strained his ears to listen around him, blocking out all of the surrounding jungle sounds. 'I know i heard something..' He tensed a moment, as he heard it again, a faint scream, comming from the direction of the old ruins. His ruby gaze narrowed as he shot towards the area.
)(
"Argh! No! I'm sorry! Don't kill meeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!" Megumi yelled out, trying to contain her laughter at Akima's look of surprise that Megumi had actually been able to hit her with a paintball, and was now glaring at the younger girl. Akima held up what appeared to be some kind of laser cannon, but it was actually, a regular paintball gun, that Megumi had fixed up. She ran over to Megumi, tackling the girl as she held her down, pointing the barrel of the gun at her friend's head, a large, almost sadistic looking grin crossed her face. "Prepare to die..."
Megumi yelped and pretended to be as scared as a little rabbit in a wolf's gaze. "Oh no! Help! Someone help! She's gonna killlll me!" Megumi screamed out, trying to keep her scared look upon her face, and not break out into laughter as they played their usual game of paintball war.
)(
Shadow heard it again! He came upon the ruins, looking around a bit causiously for a moment before he caught the scene of a frightened fox girl under another, a red hedgehog, who had a laser pointed at her head. His eyes narrowed as he leap into action, tackling Akima off of Megumi who blinked in surprise. "I won't let you kill an innocent!" He growled out, taking up a fighting stance as Akima grumbled and stood up, pointing the 'laser' at her own head.
"Look, you idiot, we're only playing." She said as she pulled the trigger to the gun, and a large ball of neon green paint splattered across her head. "God, what IS it with people today?! First some annoying bat person grabs my ass, and now some guy trying to -protect- my friend." She said with a roll of her eyes, throwing her hands up in frusteration.
"Akima...I don't think he ment any harm....from what we were doing, and how it looked, someone who didnt know us, would have thought that you were really trying to kill me." Megumi said innocently, as Shadow continued to eye Akima cautiously. "Yeah, whatever.." She said and ran up the steps of the ruins at a slow pace, and climbing up to the top of the 'tower' there.
Megumi sighed as she watched Akima, shaking her head a moment, before walking over to Shadow. "Please forgive her, she's had a rough day today..and we were really only playing.." She said softly, in an almost childlike voice; her four tails swaying somewhat behind her. "I'm sorry as well. I guess i did kind of jump to conclusions. Are you sure you're alright?" Shadow asked, looking at Megumi, finally noticing the neon green paint all over her.
"Yeah, i'm fine. We have to go though. See you some other time!" Megumi said with a smile, as she rotated her four tails, and flew up over to where Akima was; grabbing her friend's arms as they flew off into the distance over the cliff, where one of Eggman's bases used to be. Shadow just stared off at them, before walking out of the ruins, going back to what he was doing prior, nothing.
)( Later )(
Megumi sighed as she looked around the old base, then at Akima who stood there with her arms crossed, not looking very happy. "Awww...come on 'Kima....he only thought i was in danger..." Megumi said with a small smile, looking at her 'sister'. "Hey! I know! Don't look so glum." Megumi started, before Akima glared at her. "Oh, right, that's how you're supposed to be.." She says, rolling her eyes a moment.
"As i was saying, we need to find Kurramo, god knows where these human idiots put him at. We need to find him before Ivo wakes up, don't want him to ruin our plans." Megumi says, as she looked through various files in the computer databank. "I mean, if he found us, he might know where Kurr is.." Megumi states as she glanced over at Akima, who was leaning against a wall with her eyes closed, either sleeping, or thinking.
"Have you checked anything under any of the files from Professor Gerald?" Akima asks, as she opened her golden gaze to look at Megumi's own icy blue. "Of course! Why didn't i think of that earlier?!" Megumi cried as she started to furiously type in commands into the computer at a fast rate, not taking her eyes off the data-filled screen.
"Hmmm.....says here that G.U.N. has him...you know what that means, 'Kima?" the chocolate colored fox asked, looking to the older hedgehog. "Yeah, 'Gumi...It means we get to have a little..fun.." She says in reply, a large almost evil grin sliding across her lips as she cracked her knuckles. "A whole lot of fun.."
)( G.U.N. Facility )(
"Allright, as much as we would like to have some fun, as you would call it. " Megumi says into her headset with a built in microphone, that sent her words to Akima. "But we need to get in, and out, as fast as possible, and as quiet as can be, we can always bust some robots another day." Akima grumbled something unhearable as she sighed. "Yeah, right, so Kurramo is in sector Zeta 3?" Akima asked as she darted quickly around the halls, keeping out of sight from the cameras and random robots that passed by.
Akima made it into the area where Kurramo was, her golden gaze narrowing as she looked around. She walked over to his stasis tube and keyed in the release sequence, golden eyes watching as dark Emerald colored orbs gazed back at her a moment, before blinking. Kurramo stood up out of his tube, his sapphire blue colored furr dripping from the liquid that had been inside of the tube.
Kurramo was a tall furrie, taller than Akima was. He had dark blue furr, and even darker blue spiky ish hair that fell to about his waist, ending just above his fluffyesque rabbit tail. He wore nothing, not even gloves or shoes; one of his rabbit ears stood straight up..ish..and the other flopped over, almost like one of those playboy bunnie insignias.
"What the hell took you so long?" Asked Kurramo, his voice deep with a hint of a Russian accent to it. Akima rolled her eyes at her big 'brother' shrugging. "Megumi wanted me to go all stealth.." She says, looking him over. "Common, let's blow this place..Blow it sky high.." She says with a large grin as she tossed a detonater type thing up and down in her hand as Kurramo nodded. "Yes, let's get the hell out of here."
Both Kurramo and Akima ran their way out of the base, destroying any robot that got in their way as they made their way out. Kurramo was fast, but not as fast as Akima was, and she only went as slow as she did, to make sure he got out of the base. Once outside, and a hell of way from the base, Akima grinned as she sat back in a tree, watching as the base blew up with a resounding 'BAM!!' sound.
"Come on you guys, let's go before any more G.U.N. people, or those 'hero' people show up." Megumi says, as she sat in a jeep, watching as Kurramo and Akima jumped in as well. "'Kima gets off on blowing things up..doesn't she?" Kurramo asked with a grin, looking at his flusteredish looking sister. "I do not." Akima said emotionlessly, with a slight red tint to her face. "Surreee you don't, and i'm the queen of the universe." He says with a roll of his emerald eyes, watching the trees zoom by. "Then you're one UGLY queen." - "Hey!"
)( Abandoned Eggman Base A.K.A. 'Home' )(
Kurramo looked at himself in a mirror, emerald eyes narrowing slightly as he inspected his reflection. He wore a pair of plain white shoes, and white gloves, but instead of the rings around his wrists and ankles, like Akima and a few others had, he had studed anklets and wrist bracelet thingys. Also, around his neck, there was a spiked collar, and on his right arm was a regular collar type thing, only studded instead of spiked; in his right rabbit ear, was a single golden hoop type earing.
He wore a pair of skintight, or furtight, black leather pants, that allowed his blue rabbit tail to poke through in the back, and a black also skintight tanktop netshirt that showed off his muscular figure; an oversized tooth poking out of his mouth, in a rabbit sort of way, that made him look irrisitably cute. "Aww, stop worrying Kurr, you look fine." Megumi says as she glomped onto her older brother, hugging him for all she was worth, having missed him. He chuckled and hugged her back, looking around a bit. "Hey, i have an idea, let's go find Akima and tell her.." He says, picking Megumi up and setting her on his shoulder.
)( Emerald Beach )(
It was a bright sunny day, not a cloud in the sky, and boy, was it hot as hell. Nope, nothing could break Amy and Rouge's spirits as they dragged the boys off to the beach for the day, without much complaint from them. Amy laughed as she splashed at Tails in the water, said younger boy waving to Sonic who was glaring at the water like it was Eggman, or worse. Knuckles sat up in one of those palm trees, watching out incase of some enemy, and Shadow, he sat under the shade of said tree, while Rouge sunbathed out on a beach towel.
Not like the boys wore any clothes, much less swimming trunks, so Amy and Rouge were the only ones who wore swimsuits, Rouge a small pink bikini, in hopes of catching Knuckles' eye, and Amy, a red bikini as well, but with white dots scattered around on it. Tails laughed and dunked Amy, watching her sputter back up and glare playfully at him "Ohhh! Just you wait Tails! I'll get you back!" She yells at him, smiling and waved to Sonic. "Hey! Sonic! Come on in! The water's fine!" She laughed at the look he gave her, which seemed to scream out 'Are you crazy?!' and went back to glaring at the water.
)(
Meanwhile, a little bit aways from the group of friends, Megumi, Akima, and Kurramo were at the beach as well. Akima sat under a tree, a book in hand as she quietly read, golden gaze looking up over her book to watch her siblings a moment, before going back to her story. Megumi and Kurramo were chasing each other around with super soakergun things; Megumi wearing a red tube top bikini styled top, with two white cherries in the front intertwined, her bottoms, were like spandex shorts, and were white, with red cherries all over it. ((Megumi has a thing for cherries.)) Kurramo had ditched his other outfit, collar and all, as he ran around, wearing a a pair of black swimtrunks with red shimmery planets, and blue shimmery cresent moons on it.
A bit later, Kurramo and Megumi came and sat down beside Akima, looking bored. "There's nothing to do..Oh! I know! We can have a race?!' Megumi yelled out loudly with excitement, causing Sonic and Shadow to look over at them with a somewhat interested look at the word 'race'. Akima smirked as she saved her page, and closed her book, setting it down. "You know..you won't win.." She says, her thin form stretching out as she did a few warm ups, she didn't want to pull a muscle, now did she?
"Allright, first one to the ice cream man, and back, wins!" Megumi says with a large smile, drawing a line in the sand as she, Akima, and Kurramo settled behind it. "Allright, when the book falls, we start." Kurramo says with a grin, ignoring Akima's glare as he tossed the book high into the air.
All eyes were on the book, even Sonic and the others, before 'SMACK!" it fell onto the ground, Kurramo and Akima darting off, leaving Megumi in their dust. Akima snickered almost evily as she turned to look back at her sister, taunting her. "How does it feel to eat dirt?!" She yelled out as they ran, Akima keeping a slow, yet somewhat fast pace, as she didn't like reveiling her fastness to anyone she didn't know.
Kurramo frowned and sped up, matching Akima's speed as they ran neck and neck, well, as Akima let them. "Hey Kurr, hope you like dust, because you're going to eat it!" she yelled as he grinned at her. "Ha! As if! you won't win this time!" He yelled back at her and ran as fast as he could, passing up Akima a moment.
Akima smirked as she let him think he was winning, before she sped up herself, zooming past him and to the ice cream man. She quickly bought an ice cream cone, and started back towards the finish, waving almost cheerfully at Kurr as he made his way to the ice cream man a few moments later. She also passed up Megumi, who by now knew she wasn't going to win, and was walking the rest of the way.
Akima made her way over the finish line, and looked around a moment, grabbing her book and dusting it off with a grumble, and sitting back down to read it. "What? No rants and raves about how you're the best?" Kurr joked as he and Megumi walked back over to her, eating their own ice cream cones. "Why should i, when you -KNOW- i'm the world's best." Akima says with a smirk, watching the group of furries not to far away, one which she noticed was that male who had the nerve to tackle her the other day..and the bat girl too..who had...touched her.
She visibly twitched at the memory, of another female touching her ass like that, and she was hoping that it would never happen again. "Oh come on, i live to see your rants and ravings at the end of the end of a good race?!" Megumi says, grinning at her older sister. Kurr smirked and grabbed his super soaker, which was filled with ICE cold water, and squirted Akima with it, getting her good and wet.
Akima froze, as she looked at her once dry fur. Her golden eyes narrowed dangerously as she glared at her brother, who saw her look, and started to back up. "Uhm...whoopse?" He says, before turning and fully started to run for his life, which he just got used to having again. "You are SO DEAD!!!" Akima yelled as she jumped up, shaking the water off of her.
Visible black flames surrounded her as her eyes glowed a dark blood red, and in an evil voice stated "Run, puny mortal! For i will KILL you when i catch you?!" She says, fist rising up. ((Think of those animeish women who get all pissed off like, and that's how Akima is?)) Kurr gulped, and ran faster. "Gah! Why did i shoot her?!" He asked himself, before a cold voice yelled out "Akima Daggers!!" Large dark purple energy spear type things circled him from every angle, before the converged on his form, leaving him to lay on the ground twitching.
"Ow..that...seriously fucking hurt.." He mumbled into the sand, looking up to find a pissed off Akima standing over him, slamming her foot into his back. She wasn't really mad or anything, she was just playing around, like she and Megumi did all the time, only, she wasn't afraid to hurt Kurr with her power like she was with Megumi.
Megumi snickered and laughed as she watched her two older siblings, blinking as Sonic and the others started towards them, because they thought she had gone crazy or something. "No! Leave them alone! you'll ruin everything!" She yelled out to them, as Sonic looked at her as if she was crazy too. "You kiddin'?! She's gonna kill him of we don't stop her!" Sonic yelled as he pinted over to them, only to find Akima sitting on Kurr's back, tickling the hell out of him as he laughed and screamed, begging for mercy.
"Ha! Pledge your allegance to me, and you wont die as soon as you would if you weren't?!" Akima yelled with a large grin, Kurr squirming and trying to get her off of him. "But your supremeness! I already AM loyal to you!" He laughed out, sighing in releif as she got up and dusted herself off. "Ha! That's right, you better. No one is greater than i am! For i am the SUPREME lifeform, and no one is my better or equal!" She stated, her foot on his back as she crossed her arms, a smirk upon her lips as she reached up to scratch the end of her nose. "At least that i know of."
"Ah, well, enough fooling around for now.." She says, as she reached down, and helped Kurr to his feet, helping him dust off. "Ha! Supreme lifeform, that's rich. What's next, Goddess of the Universe?" Kurr joked, rolling his eyes. "Geeze, she has a bigger ego than Sonic, Shadow, AND Knuckles combined..!" Amy stated as she got a "Hey!" from Sonic, a "What do you mean ego?!" from Knuckles, and a slight glare from Shadow.
"Well, it is true, boys." Rouge says with a small smile. "Hey, i know you. You're the one i met at the mall the otherday, aren't you?" Rouge asked as she moved closer, to look at Akima. Akima blinked and arched a brow, her arms crossing over her chest as she glared a bit at the bat. "So what if i am? What's it to you?...You're not going to attempt at grabbing my ass again, are you?" She asked, glaring even more at Rouge as she blushed brightly. "Hey! That was an accident! I thought you were someone else!" She says, turning away from the strange hedgehog girl, and "Hmph!"ing as she walked away.
All eyes were on Rouge as she walked away, Akima's more of a glare as Kurr looked at his sister. "So...a girl touched your ass, hm?" Kurr asked, looking back to Rouge a moment. "Kurr..." Akima started warningly, though he didn't heed the warning as he continued. "Did you like it? Or did you shove your foot up her-" "KURRAMO!!!" Akima intterupted, slamming her fist upside his head with a growl. "I'll take that as a no.." Kurr said weakly from the ground, twitching.
Sonic and the others, with the exception of Shadow, sweatdropped as they watched the scene; Shadow just arched a brow in amusement. Kurr stood back up, dusting himself off again, blinking as Amy looked up at him. "Hey, you know. You're kinda cute! Maybe even cuter than Sonic!" She stated, giggling as she looked up at the tall Rabbit. Sonic blinked, and looked at Kurr, and then Amy, and then Kurr again. He had mixed feelings about that comment of hers. Sure, he didn't like her to hang around him all the time, and chase him, but no one, NO ONE was 'cuter' than he was, and it made him jealous that Amy, a fan, would up and start liking someone over him.
Kurr blinked, and blushed slightly. "Uhh, thanks..I guess." He says, ear twitching as his emerald gaze glanced over at his younger sister, well, the baby sister really, as she kept sneaking looks at Tails. "You, have such pretty fur.." She started shyly as she and Tails stood off a little from the others, talking quietly with small glances at one another, and little blushes. "Wow! I didn't know anyone had more tails than i did!" Tails exclaimed as he eyed Megumi's four tails with curiosity.
Akima grumbled and wandered away from the group, well, not too far away, as she leaned against a tree, looking out at the sea, but listening to the conversations going around. "What's the matter faker? Jealous that your fangirl has an interest in someone else?" Shadow teased as Sonic growled and huffed out a "No way!" but still glaring somewhat at Kurr.
'Hmm...that dark hedgehog...he reminds me of project Shadow...' Akima thought, her gaze dulled a moment as she went back into memories, grumbling and mumbling a few words every now and then. Kurr and Megumi blinked as they watched Akima, and wandered over to her, shaking her shoulders to get her from her 'trance'. "What's wrong with her?" Tails asked, as Sonic nodded and Shadow stayed quiet, Amy looking on with worry.
"She'll be ok, she get's like this every now and then when she gets into thinking too much.." Kurr stated as he sighed and slapped Akima across the face, hard. Akima shook out of her deep thoughts, growling and glaring at Kurr as she spit a bit of blood from her mouth. "Did you -have- to do that?" She asked annoyed, before glaring at all the people around her. She didn't like it, she felt like they were trying to close in on her, which they weren't, but Akima had a slight clostrophobia, as she growled and pushed pass her brother and sister, stomping/running away from the group.
Megumi smiled apologetically as she watched Kurr run after their sister. "Heh, sorry about that, gotta go. Maybe we'll see you again. She always get's like this when she's been thinking too much about 'him'." Megumi stated before waving, taking off after her brother and sister before anyone could ask who 'him' was.
