Stubborn Love: Lost In The Amazon (Sonadow)

Given Information

After a few hours of flying at 15,000 feet at high speeds of 267 mph, the beautiful rainforest of the Amazon could be seen from down below. Sonic couldn't help but gasp as he peered at the jungle beauty below them from out the window.

"Shadow take a look at this."

The ebony hedgehog rolled his eyes before looking out the window too. As he did so, he couldn't help but agree that the rainforest looked honestly breathtaking from above.

"Isn't it amazing?" Sonic's voice practically smiled over the radio intercom.

Shadow just shrugged his shoulders before leaning back in his seat, crossing his arms over his chest with his eyes closed. Sonic couldn't help but roll his eyes at the behavior of his companion.

"Seriously Shadow, sometimes you just gotta stop and enjoy the simplest things in life."

"Enjoying the simplest things are just a waste of time, especially if we have an important mission ahead of us."

Sonic frowned in annoyance before turning to look back outside. By now, he could see that they were coming up to a landing pad in the middle of a large village full of South Americans.

"Hey Shads, I think we're getting ready to land."

"Good, then we can finally get this over with. And don't call me Shads."

Sonic forced himself to hold in a growl. Seriously, what was wrong with that hedgehog?! Why was he being so bitter towards him? What has he done other than agree to work with him for a month? He sighed and rubbed a gloved hand over his face.

"Listen Shadow, if anything I don't wanna fight you during this." He sighed, bringing his hand back down to look at the onyx hedgie. "I'm just here to help you with the mission because Rouge is on her own and I know she took Omega with her, leaving you with no one else. I just wanna help."

Shadow kept his eyes closed and he sighed. Perhaps Sonic was right. He wasn't being very fair to the blue hedgehog in front of him. All Sonic wanted to do was help, so shouldn't he be grateful for that?

Besides... he had already told the Commander that he would try to make things work between them.

"Fine." He finally growled, opening his eyes to look at him. "I'll try to work with you, just as long as you do everything I say."

"No problem, Shads!" Sonic cried cheerfully, holding up a thumbs up.

Shadow just rolled his eyes and looked back out the window, watching as the helicopter lowered into the village.

At last, the 'copter landed on the helipad and the engine was turned off, slowing the swirling blades to a stop. Sonic and Shadow got up from their seats and exited the cabin, their bags snugged tightly onto their backs. As they stepped outside, a wave of humid heat hit them. It was the middle of summer in the rainforest.

"Great, that means it's the rainy season." Shadow growled.

"It's a 'rain'forest, what did you expect?" Sonic frowned.

Shadow humphed and ignored the azure hedgie next to him, adjusting the straps of his pack over his shoulders before continuing forward, Sonic following close behind. As they walked off the helipad, a tall human man with tan skin, green eyes, short blonde hair, and wearing a black South American G.U.N uniform approached them.

"Shadow and Sonic the Hedgehog." The man greeted once the three of them were standing face to face. The man held out a hand to them in an attempt for a handshake. "Officer Charles of unit 37 of the South American G.U.N Agency."
