Glaring holes through the red echidna's back, Shadow's eye twitched furiously at Knuckles's comment. Averting his gaze from the retreating pair, he glanced his eyes back down at the wolf who was currently looking up at him in interest. Shadow found himself rather on edge, he had somehow ended up doing exactly what he had been trying to avoid. Being alone with the blue hedgehog in his current state. Twitching awkwardly, the dark hedgehog looked into the green eyes. Knuckles had beaten the living daylight out of him, causing the wolf to seem woozy and not as intent of having his way with the dark hedgehog as he did on their last encounter.

Clasping his hands between his thighs and leaning forward, Shadow considered his options. He could either tell Sonic about what happened, and potentially ruin every bit of dignity the dark hedgehog had left, orrr- forget about it and go back to normal. He definitely preferred the latter option. After all; Sonic would never treat him that way in his normal form. Plus even if Sonic were to... Shadow's muzzle turned a dark red. He wouldn't- Sonic would never intentionally hurt someone. Shadow flinched- Sonic would be caring... or Shadow liked to think he would be.

Realising that he was contemplating the way in which Sonic would make love to him left Shadow suddenly reeling and convulsing at his own thoughts.

Standing up violently in grandeur speed; Shadow lurched toward the door, his body and mind wanting to be as far from Sonic as possible, tried to leave, only to be knocked over, landing directly onto his still sore rump. Gritting his teeth, desperately trying to ignore the pain shooting up his backside, Shadow glared straight at the blue wolf who was clearly angry and confused at the dark hedgehog for attempting to leave him alone in the cold bunker. The heavy paw that had swiped Shadow of his feet, quickly retreated. Shadow was just about to move, however once again was stopped by a blue body. This time, Sonic tried to curl up into the dark fur of the hedgehog next to him, clearly looking for comfort in his current woozy state.

Letting out a frustrated exhale, Shadow found his hand once again rummaging through thick wolf fur, scratching the peach skin that was hidden underneath. This was an interesting revelation to learn. His muzzle was still burning beetroot red. Shaking his head at his rival, he simply quickened in his actions, hoping on soothing the almost puppy-like wolf to sleep.

Watching intently as the blue lids slowly slid down over the wolfs eyes, Shadow moved to the side, to get up from underneath his heavy mass. After managing to free the rest of his torso, both his legs were still stuck under the werehogs muzzle and chest. Kicking back the furry body, Shadow attempted once again to make his escape, in hopes of exiting the base to finally receive the long rest his body deserved. He'd done his part for the time being, leaving now wouldn't hurt anyone.

Groaning in desperation, he noticed the wolf had once again began to stir from his constant movements. Trying to sit up and pull his legs out, Shadow realized with shock that his dark skinny leg was currently being gripped tightly by Sonic's sharp taloned paw. Tugging more and more on his legs that the the wolf was so persistent in holding, the dark hedgehogs body gave up. He was too tired to even care, he was sick of constantly being woken up each day to someone new, whether it was Sonic or Tails, and lack of sleep had finally taken its toll, Even the ultimate life-form needed a proper eight hours sleep at some point. His Chaos hold was critically low from using a Chaos blast earlier. Shadow begrudgingly admitted that he maybe, just maybe, didn't need to put that much power into the blast. His powers were once again diminished annoyingly enough, a small whisper of energy escaping his fingers and then fizzling away softly as he tried to form a small hint of threatening power.

Rolling his eyes for what felt like the umptieth time today, Shadow huffed. "Fine! Fine- have it your way." Growling deeply to himself and accepting his fate, he allowed his body to fall against the blue wolf, deciding that he could most definitely afford to lose his privacy for one night if it meant him actually getting a proper sleep.

Shadow wriggled back closer towards the hairy beast next to him and attempted to get comfy in the thick mass of fur. The dark hedgehog yawned softly into the warm plumage of fur that was acting as a blanket and allowed his body to be absorbed into the heat next to him as he gently felt his eyelids lower. Okay- so Sonic was definitely comfy, causing Shadow to nod off rather quickly in terms of how long it would usually take Shadow to fall asleep. But Shadow decided to blame that on his weeks exertion and lack of a good nights sleep.

Snorting happily to himself as he felt his 'mate' fall asleep next to him, he carefully licked the hedgehog's head in appreciation, watching as the long trail of slobber travelled down Shadow's forehead and collected in a pool under his head. He was glad the hedgehog had finally settled down to sleep next to him, he hadn't wanted to sleep alone. Not tonight. Everything was... New... And unsettling to his over-sensitive nose. The only thing familiar here was his black 'mate'. Growling at the thought of the other two unfamiliar creatures, he had a strong feeling they were up to no good and were planning on harming his 'mate'. A low rumbling sound emitted from his throat. He would not let anyone get near his 'mate', even the thought alone caused him to get distressed. Giving a tentative lick to the thick red stripe adorned on Shadow's head, Sonic continued to 'groom' the hedgehog, noticing his fur was dishevelled in places. Wrapping a heavy paw protectively around the oblivious hedgehogs head, the blue wolf finally fell asleep against Shadow's lithe body. Neither of them noticing the snickering echidna and grinning fox watch over them as they slept, observing the strange display of affection towards one another.

Finally regaining consciousness, Shadow groaned slightly, his back ached harshly against the hard metal flooring he had been lead on all night. Shivering, realizing he wasn't as warm as he had been last night, and his head was extremely damp, he glanced up at where the werehog once lead.

Only to come face to face with a sleeping peach muzzle. 

A far less furry version of the form that had been there the previous night, a blue, averagely sized hedgehog now lay in its wake. Or more specifically, was laying on top of Shadow.

Freezing in his position, Shadow stared at the hedgehog. The blue mobian had his arm wrapped tightly around the dark hedgehog's head (placed carefully in the gaps where his spines were not) and had manged to create an extremely awkward situation between the two. Shadow found his muzzle was far too close to Sonic's muzzle, much to his distaste, and reeled back swiftly, trying not to wake the sleeping other. Scowling at the blue speedster who had been snoring way too loud in his ear, he slipped Sonic's hand off of the the back of his head, pushed the other's lithe form off him gingerly and stood up. 

Briskly walking away, his trademark scowl and angry march appearing in his stride, Shadow wiped his face, clearly trying to ignore the blush that had been slowly crawling onto his face as soon as he had laid eyes on Sonic.

Finally making his exit across the large room towards the door in hopes of finding the other two mobians, he left a snoring Sonic to continue sleeping.
