Wake Up Sonic

Chapter 11

Shadow leaned forward on what was supposed to be the back of the chair, but for his purposes it was the front.He laid his chin on his arms as he watched the sleeping blue hedgehog laying down in front of him miserably.

Right now they were in the suite that Amy used as the nurses office.He thanked God that She had been in here when he'd brought Sonic in; apparently the blue idiot had had the fever for at least a couple of hours until he'd fainted.

He glanced at Sonic out of his daze and he frowned in concern.
He looked so vulnerable...
Sonic was lying on his back an Ice-pack on his forehead to keep his head from heating up too much, and the heavy comforter was pulled up to his chin since he had been shivering when he first got in here.

Shadow sighed. Amy said he needed a lot of rest, but Shadow was getting impatient, wanting to know from himself that the blue boy was okay.

He looked up as the door to the room opened up and Amy walked in with a new crate of medical supplies.
"Hi Shadow, still lurking I see" She said cheerful.
Shadow nodded a greeting and made a face at her last comment.
"Actually I was about to leave. I just wanted to check up on him"
He mumbled as he looked down at the sleeping hedgehog
Amy smiled.
"Hey, don't worry: it's just a common fever. He'll be fine after he's gotten some rest."
He nodded and smirked "So You keep telling me."

He got up and stretched."Well, I'm off to check on the demons. Tell me if he wakes up" He said as he headed out.

As he got to the main Cabin Shadow waved to some of the students who greeted him until he got to the lunch table where Tails and Knuckles were sitting.
"Hey Shadow! How is he?" Knuckles asked as he sat down.
Shadow shrugged.
"He's fine; sleeping of course"

"Okay, good. Claymore was starting to get me worried: you know the way that guy talks everyone's getting the idea that the kid died or something!"Shadow sighed.

Claymore was becoming more of a problem than an annoyance.He continually harassed the group about where Sonic was, and he was starting to spread rumors that the three had done something to him.

"Speak of the devil" Muttered Tails angrily as the badger came over to their table.

"Where is he!" Claymore growled as he put both hands on their table propping himself up by his arms. "Where is my cutie-pie!"
The vein in Shadow's temple twitched angrily.
'He ain't YOUR cutie-pie bitch.'

"None of your effing business"Knuckles growled showing off his fangs and pointed knuckles for which he got his name for.

"It IS my business and I have a right to know!" He argued."Actually you don't! you aren't his family member, or a close friend, nor are you a legal guardian!" Tail's said, gritting his teeth.

Claymore gave them a glare and stalked off to his table where he started talking furiously to his table mates.
Not that any of them seemed to care in the slightest.
They didn't know the Sonic kid very well, and they had to agree that not only was Claymore getting annoying, it wasn't his business in the first place.

"Anyway, Thanks for looking out for him Shadow. I don't know what I would do if we lost Sonic!" Tails said miserably, and Shadow was reminded why Tail's was his favorite student. Besides Sonic of course."Yea. Thanks Shadow." Knuckles chimed in.
