Third Person POV

Shadow sat in his team's office. His feet were up on his desk as he read through a lengthy file.
The only sound that could be heard in that room was the occasional page flip from Shadow and the click of the keyboard as Maria typed nonstop.

"Any more information on the suspect, Mar?" Asked Shadow, glancing over at the blonde hedgehog who was reading the information on the large desktop at a mile a minute.

"Not yettttt...." She mumbled, reading through lines and lines of information. "HAH! I FOUND SOMETHING!" She exclaimed, jumping from her chair.

Shadow stood up and leaned over to read the information Maria had highlighted.
"You remember that this dude, Merth, is suspected to target people who are going through immense pain like after-surgery or something?" Said Maria, giving Shadow a full run down of what she had figured out. "But he never went to prison or trial because most would assume that the person committed suicide from the immense pain. He was sent to prison for a year since someone finally got on his tail and saw him kill their cousin, and now we just got him again as a suspect since he's been released for three years. And I was looking into the file of the person who was just killed that we suspect him for, and guess what?"

"What?" Shadow always loved seeing his sister excited and passionate about her investigation skills, reminded him of simpler days when they lived on the ARK.

"The dude he killed was left-handed! The gun was in his right! He couldn't have shot himself that clean through the head with his non-dominant hand!" Exclaimed Maria. "And our man is a rightie and I was looking into the gun model and it's specifically built for people with right hand dominance! HAHAHAH! I FUCKING SOLVED IT!"
She then covered her hands with her mouth.
"Oops, sorry, language!"

Shadow patted her on the back and clicked print on the information she had dug up.
"Good job Maria, I'll go tell Rouge and Midnight and Omega they can stop looking in the dusty old file cabinets." He chuckled. He grabbed his radio off his belt and called Rouge.
"Agent Rouge, Agent Maria has found incriminating information that proves our man guilty, you can tell Agent Midnight and Agent Omega they can stop looking through the files."

The radio was static for a minute, and then Rouge answered.
"Thank chaos, I already got three whole papercuts from this, Hey! Omega! Midnight! We can stop looking through files." He heard her say.
"FUCKING FINALLY!" He heard Midnight yell in the background.
He chuckled lightly and then put his radio away.
He grabbed the files off his desk and stacked them up as the other three walked in.

"Woo, good thing we're getting a break soon, I'm getting hungry." Said Rouge.

Then Shadow just remembered, it was almost lunchtime.
"Oh by the way, Team, I'm having coffee and lunch with a friend. You are all welcome to join, he'd be very happy to have your company." Shadow said, as he grabbed his phone and wallet.

"Having coffee with a friend? And inviting the other three of us? Who are you and what have you done with Shadow?" Giggled Rouge.

"I'm still the same, but I have been taking Maria's advice in trying to be more polite to people who aren't children and her." Shadow said.

"Well, I guess I'll come, got nothing much better to do." Said Rouge.

"I'll come too, I didn't know you had friends other than us Shadow! What's his name?" Asked Midnight, the panther's ears flicking in curiosity.

"Sonic." Stated Shadow.

"Hmm, I don't know any Sonics.... do you Maria?" Asked Midnight.

Maria pulled the now finished information of the computer and then looked up.
