The Ruby Eyes of Affection

Orders must be followed under all circumstances

Sonic quickly rushed through the forest as he followed the exact directions of the Chaos Emerald Locator. His mind and soul were committed to arriving at the destination as soon as possible. However, for only a second, he decided to take a tiny break as he was still exhausted from whatever happened a couple days before.

(Shadow needs me. I have to keep going... Why do I feel so damn tired though...?) He leaned against a tree while panting, desperately desiring more air, before the snap of a twig startled him to attention.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't the egotistical blue peasant. Looking for Shadow, I assume? Don't worry he's safe." The brown hedgehog pestered mockingly as he folded his arms and rolled his eyes in complete insolence.

"Rob... What the hell have you done with him?! You CANNOT keep us apart. You do realize that right?! Love will always prevail over evil." Sonic exclaimed as he growled at the uninterested hedgehog while clenching his fists in assurance.

"Oh Chaos. Do you even realize how lame you sound? It's no wonder Shadow likes you. You're downright precious." He replied cleverly as he wrapped his arm around the cobalt's waist before yanking him way too close for comfort.

"Get your hands off me!!!!!" The sapphire hedgehog yelled furiously as his body felt especially violated before aggressively shoving the brunet hedgehog against the tree.

He dropped the Chaos Emerald Locator to the side as he got into his normal fighting position.

"You wanna dance pretty boy?! THEN LET'S DANCE!" Sonic exclaimed as he forcefully thrusted his fist into the brown hedgehogs gut, glaring in pure cruelty.

Quickly, the pinkish eyes of his enemy became serious as he rammed his leg against Sonic's knees causing him to collapse in pain.

"HAY! That's cheating!" The azure shouted as he tried to regain his stance like nothing happened even though he knew the brunet hedgehog pretty much won the fight.

"You really want to play this game?! I told you Shadow IS safe. You think I would ever let a stupid scientist hurt him?! NOT A CHANCE IN HELL!" Rob bellowed in complete ferocity as his face became slightly red with frustration and wrath.

"How can you be sure?! You probably don't even love him and are just using him!" The cobalt spat as he didn't realize the mine field he just walked into.

There was a long pause as Rob's face became especially demonic.

"I love him... More than you ever could love... I've work harder then you have ever worked and I will not let a stupid kid like you tell me what to do! I EARNED his affection... I..." The brown hedgehog's voice became slightly emotional as it trailed off in sheer outrage.

"You don't get it......... You'll never get it..." He added as his face started to turn malicious while his body filled with rage and disgust.

"You... Don't... Deserve... Him." Rob spoke clearly as he reached out and pointed his finger at Sonic with sheer pain and slight guilt sparkling in his rosy eyes.

"Shadow... He means everything to me and you're getting in my way of protecting him. I am ending your life right now..." He finished as his he looked down at the ground in regret.

"You and what army bro?!" The cobalt hedgehog yelled sarcastically as he got into his running position.

"CHAOS SPEAR!" He belted as a flash of Chaos energy was released from his finger tips and aiming straight for Sonic's head.
