~With Rouge and Shadow~
Rouge swiftly flies ahead of the knights, charging toward the Broncos men. She slashes at any incoming knight with ease and precision. The allied knights watch her in shock and awe.
The King of the Herpestes' kingdom steadies his horse as he watches Rouge clear through a multitude of the Broncos' men. He looks at her in confusion, "W-Who is that woman?" One of his knights approaches him, "According to the news spreading through the nation, I believe she is the one who is part of that Mobian rebel group, my King! Renegades, I believe they call them!"
The King frowns, "Renegades...That knight Fenriz spoke of them at length. Why is she fighting this war?!" One of the knights charges at the King, but Shadow suddenly appears before them and slashes the Broncos man.
Shadow bows to the King, "My apologies for the vulgar tone, your Majesty, but we have a pressing matter at hand. As it stands, she is fighting by our side, per the King's orders. So I suggest you get your men to do the same." The King flinches, "Ah, yes, w-well...I suppose. I-If you think t-that's best, sir Shadow."
Shadow rolls his eyes and chases after Rouge. The King blushes as his knights stare at him in confusion, "D-Don't just stand there! Assist the bat, close them in!" The knights spread out, creating a wide circle formation. The King of the Reynard kingdom instructed his knights to do the same.
Meanwhile, Shadow does his best to reach Rouge, calling out to her as he does. "Rouge! Stop and listen to me!" Rouge ignores him and continues plowing through the men. Through her blind rage, she didn't realize one of the Broncos' men was approaching her from the side. Shadow's eyes widen, "Rouge!"
Rouge snaps out of her mind and quickly does her best to dodge the man's attack. She tries to roll out of the way as he attacks, and as a result, he slashes her wing, knocking her to the ground. He goes to attack her again, but Shadow quickly grabs his arm, breaking it, and slashes him down his side, knocking him to the ground.
Shadow rushes to Rouge's side and raises her head, "Rouge, are you okay?" Rouge gasps in pain, doing her best to spread her wings. "Stop. You're obviously injured. You need to be patched up." She grits her teeth, "...No, I can't stop...!" Shadow frowns, "Ease yourself, Rouge." She shoves him away, "Get off of me!" "If you do not calm yourself, you will die!"
Rouge glares at him, "I will not calm until I see this ground covered in Phobus' blood!" Shadow grips her shoulders, "Rouge!" Her eyes flash, "No! He will pay. I swear to you...he will pay! He has to..." He frowns, "You're being ridiculous. This anger you are carrying will get you nowhere. You will die behind this anger, is that what you want?"
She slaps his hands away, "What I want...? I want to know that Phobus is dead, and I want to be the one who sees it through." Shadow sighs, "Rouge, I know what you're feeling, but–" Rouge scowls at him, "No, you don't! You don't know anything about me! You didn't even know I was a renegade. Now, you can make up whatever wild assumption that explains what they may have done to wrong me." She shakes her head, "But I assure you...it won't even be halfway close to the pain they caused!"
