"Well, here we are. Back for another night in the Kingdom of Nightmares," Sonic commented as they had arrived in front of the Prince's dormitory again. A part of him was nervous as hell about sharing the bed with Shadow again, yet another yearned for his closeness...

"Yes. Dinner should have been delivered here, in case you're hungry," Shadow replied, opening the door to enter, but looked up in mild surprise when Sonic didn't follow his tugging at the leash. He jabbed his thumb behind him.

"Yeah, I'll be coming right in. Just gotta go for little hedgehogs."

"Ah," Shadow managed, but then again, he shouldn't be surprised. Just because he had denied himself food and drink for six days now, it didn't mean Sonic had. And the exhaust had to go somewhere...

"Well, er, be quick," he said hurriedly, unhooking the leash from his good-natured slave who only winked.

"Hey, who do you think you're talking to?" he asked, grinned, and vanished in a blink. Shadow only shook his head.

Sonic whizzed through the corridors of the castle in seconds. The next lavatory – or the hole in a stone bench that qualified for one around here - wasn't very far, anyway, and at this time of night (they had wandered around in the garden until late after dark) there was hardly anybody about. Sonic opened the door to the room that contained the drop-off with a chute leading down to the moat of the castle and his snout crinkled in disgust at the stench.

Urgh. Whoever invented plumbing and modern sewage systems is the greatest person ever to live. I'll never make fun of Mario's job again, I promise...

Finishing his business, Sonic sighed once more. These people didn't even know toilet paper. He was often living in the wilderness on his adventures but at least there would be leaves or something.

He was glad to be leaving the room again and made for the door. With no one about anyway, he probably wouldn't even have to use his super speed for invisibility on his way back.

Or so he thought until Lord Drago stepped into the room.

Sonic froze.

"Oh dear. Look what the night delivered to me."

The blue hedgehog's eyes narrowed. The cleverest thing to do would be to run away, but the large bulk of the dingo was blocking the doorway. And then his leg shot out to close the wooden gate with a loud thud.

Trapped.

For a brief second, the paralysis of his nightmare tried to overcome him again, but Sonic shook it off. This time he wasn't half-sedated by drugs but fully awake and if Drago tried anything, he would regret it.

The white dingo advanced with a swagger.

"Well, well, pleasure slave...still out and about breaking rules, I see."

Sonic didn't say anything. He was well aware that Black Doom had placed the death penalty on his head if he was to disobey again. If it became known that he had wandered about freely, then they would be left with no option but to flee from the castle, making obtaining the Emerald so much harder.

And I would have disappointed Shadow...shot through Sonic's head in a flash, emerald eyes subtly widening. He didn't want this to happen. If he could escape from this room before Drago could get his paws on him, then he'd be back in the dorm within another second – and the canine lord would be left with no proof he'd ever been free at all.
