Amy and Tails' ears perked up when they heard Knuckles calling out for them.

"Hey Tails! Ames!" Knuckles opened the door. Amy and Tails saw Knuckles with Rouge beside him who are both holding hands.

"Hello hun~" Rouge winked at the two in which both of them ran to greet their friend.

Rouge never knew the existence of Sonic. Nor did Sonic knew the existence of Rouge. He just wants to be left alone. He only goes out of his house whenever he goes to buy something or hang out with Tails. All of Sonic's friends knew that he was still as aggressive as ever. But much more friendlier to them than before. Tails did mention that he had a big brother but he was a hedgehog though. Rouge was dying to meet him but it wasn't recommend. Sonic doesn't want to meet other people. So Rouge just gave up her curiosity and respected the boundaries. But... She did saw him one night last year. She only saw a blue blur, running so fast that a blue trail followed behind him. She knew that was him but never got the chance to meet him and she also forgot to ask Tails last year too.

"Anyways. Knux! Do you remember my partner back at my place who doesn't really want to be here?" Rouge turned to Knuckles as they both were sitting in the living room along with Amy, Tails, Silver, Blaze, Espio, and Cream (and Cheese).

"Do you mean the grumpy one that you always talk about? Yeah I do, why?" Knuckles glanced at her.

"Well~ I did manage to finally bring him here! He finally accepted after years of convincing" she chuckled

"His name was Shadow right?" Amy looks at Rouge but then suddenly remembered something

"Where's Sonic?" Amy looked around.

"Why are you looking for him?" Silver tilted his head.

"Oh! Just asking..." Amy laughed. Rouge felt like she knows that name. But where? This name felt familiar...

"Anyways~ He is still sleeping near a hotel from here. I just dropped him off there because he needed sleep really bad since I kind of woke the handsome up at 3 am." Rouge explained.

"He's a hedgehog as well?" Blaze looked at her.

"Yep~ he is!" Rouge smiled.

"What a surprise." Blaze said blankly.

Sonic's POV

"Ughhhh..." I felt a stinging pain like my brain is being poked by a thousand needles.

I got up and looked at the time. Isn't Knuckles' girl by visiting again? Ugh. I wanna go to Tails' house so bad. I got up and took a quick bath. After that, I looked at the mirror and combed my quills back in place.

I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth. Everyone knows I have a very short temper. But I started practice being nice to kids and other people. But every time I see a Mobian asides from the ones I'm familiar with, I just wanna... Sigh. Let's calm down and not go deep into that thought.

I sighed and looked at the sunny weather. Great time to go to Tails' house though. Let's stop acting like a bitch and don't be afraid! Yeah! Let's not be... Calm down calm down....

Sonic doesn't want to meet anyone from outside of the island. He barely managed to be nice from everyone here. The first few months that Sonic was here, he always raised his quills, hissing and growling to every Mobian he sees. He even caused the scar on Scourge's stomach.

Them having an argument, then suddenly, Sonic launched at him, they were camping near the mountain with his friends for fun. But, when Scourge got launched off, he barely hanged on to the cliff.

Clinging on to dear life, when Sonic realized this, he quickly pulled him up and Scourge got hurt by the two sharp rocks near his body and when Sonic suddenly pulling him up, it got scratched. No mobian wanted anything to do with Sonic the troublemaker.

But, 2 years ago, he swore that we will change. And after that, he started to become a tad bit nicer. Which leads us today. Sonic fighting the urge to not punch anyone who is not friendly like Scourge, Jet, and Storm. So, Knuckles decided to help, training with Sonic so that he will get off some steam.

Sonic approached Tails' house that looks like his friends was in. Sonic slowly opened the door.

"Uhh, guys?" Sonic looked around and he heard them in the living room.

When Sonic walked inside the room he saw Silver, Amy, Tails, Espio, Knuckles, and a white fruit bat.

Blaze and Cream just came from the kitchen.

"Oh hey Sonikku!" Amy got up and grabbed Sonic's arm and clinged to him.

"Hey Ames." He smiled.

"Hey Sonic! This is Rouge! Knux' girlfriend!" Tails pointed at the couple. Rouge then got up and held out her hand.

"Hey Hun~ I'm Rouge, an albino Fruit bat." Sonic shook her hands.

"Sonic The hedgehog." He then lets go and sat down.

Rouge then received a call from Shadow. She picked it up.

"Where the fuck are you?" Shadow seemed to be awake not too long ago.

"Did you enjoy your beauty sleep handsome?" Rouge played with Knuckles' fingers and Knuckles just blushed.

"Fuck you. Just. Come here."

"Alright alright! Geez! I'll be picking you up there." Rouge then hung up.

"I'll just be picking up Mr. Grumpy if you don't mind Knux." She sighed as she puts a hand in her hips.

"Oh, sure. Don't be too late. Lunch is almost here." Rouge then gave Knuckles a peck on the cheeks as she then blew a kiss before flying off and closing the door behind her before she did.

"Wow, that's the first time I saw you greet someone so calmly and not attacking them or show any signs of aggression before, Sonic" Amy looked surprised.

"Very funny, Ames." Sonic rolled his eyes.

Commander POV

"Say what now?" Towers looked at his secretary.

"Yes. They both are now currently on vacation. So unfortunately, they will both not be able to intake their daily meal here." The secretary stated

"Well, that's not a problem either way. They have been consuming the pills for 5 years consecutively, correct? They must have forgotten everything regarding the second project by now. So, instead of daily, let them take the custom pill maybe once a week, after a month, make them intake it per month. After it is done. Then we will now officially make them take it yearly. Same applies to those who had witnessed the second experiment. Got it?" The commander intertwined his hands and instructed all of these to the secretary.

"I understand." She then bowed down and exited the room.


After the secretary left. The commander sighed and leaned back at his chair. This is for the best, right Maria?

Commander looked at his side with a picture of him and his best friend. Maria Robotnik. I need to do this. To save Shadow his worries. To make Shadow forget and to not dwell on the past with another... I already forgot my reasons on why I wanted him to forget the other project. Or in other words... Sonic... Ah right. I hated him at that time and blamed him for everything. Maria's death. That's why, I need to make him forget his friend, and blame himself for the cause of Maria's death. But, now, all I want for him is that he will just forget everything. And maybe never really knowing that I made him forget it. Now I want to forget everything. Why is my mind so complicated the older I get? Strange.

Commander closed his eyes In hopes he will just fall asleep and maybe wake up thinking this is all a dream. Wake up, with Maria playing with him like always.


No wonder Shadow forgot
Anyways, looks like Commander is the cause of him forgetting Sonic.
