"Whew. At least we got away from them," Kaushal said, bring Rita and Tails out of his dimension.

"You mean us?" Spike said as he walked up.
"I thought you may come here, Kaushal." Shadow said, walking alongside Spike.

"Well, looks like you've finally stopped your contest," Kaushal said. "Don't take it personally. We just have better things to do than stand around watching people compete and compare adventures."

Shadow and Spike both smiled at the comment, "I don't mind, I'm just competitive." Spike said, and Shadow agreed.

"Well, let's actually do something besides talking," Rita said, holding Kaushal's hand.
"Hey, when did you start opening up like this?" Tails asked.

"I don't know either." Spike said. "You used to be such a drag, complaining on how dangerous some adventure is."
"Really? That's insane. Adventures are the best, especially the dangerous ones! How else are you going to get stronger?" Shadow said, looking Rita over.

"I guess......I was just looking for someone to hold my hand," Rita said. "Someone I felt I could trust with my life. You guys are great, but you wouldn't risk your life for me. Kaushal would."
"So, you were looking for a bodyguard?" Tails asked.
"No. I was looking.....for a.....boyfriend."

"Wow, i wonder where Shade went. He should have heard that." Spike commented, looking at Rita.
"I know what she's saying. I used to have... a close friend." Shadow said. "She and I did everything together, until the day GUN attacked." He looked at Kaushal, "But you already heard this, Kaushal."

"Yeah. Maria. I know what it's like to lose someone close to you. My mother.....was killed."

"I didn't know." Shadow said, his eyes breaking from their usual hard look to soften a little.
"Oh, wow, don't go soft or anything, Shadow." Spike commented.
"Do I really have to beat you?" Shadow asked, more friendly than angry.

"Who said we were?" spike said, then added, "You wouldn't run off on him like you did Tails and I if we did?"
"I havn't heard that one!" Shadow commented, looking at Spike.

Spike just smiled. "I believe that." He put his hand on her back. "What kind of a brother would i be if I didn't tease you? I know you're going to put everything you have into this relationship, just like Tails puts everything he has in his mechines, and I my adventures."
Shadow looked around, bored.

Rita smiled a little, but not much. This relationship was one thing she really didn't want to joke about.

"If I find you didn't put everything you had into this, i'll personally kick your tails." Spike said, "Because i'm trusting you to keep him," He looked at Kaushal, "in line." And smiled at his joke.
Shadow was ready to stop Kaushal in case he tried to attack Spike.

"Please, just stop," Rita said. "I know you're just joking, but this is one thing I really don't want to joke about."

"Who said i was joking that time, Rita?" Spike said, looking at her sceptically. "I'm totally serious. I will kick your tails if you mess this up. It's your one chance at happiness."

"I understand. All I am saying is I want you to be happy. And the best chance you have is to make this work." Spike said, then looked to the right quickly as he noticed a large, blue, spectral light in the distance. "Oh, no, Shade's secret attack! He only uses it when..." He cut off, afraid for the safety of whoever had iratated Shade. "Shadow, you have to get me there NOW!"
"Is it really that important? After all, what's it going to do?" Shadow said.
"That attack is of such power it could, if it gets out of control, destroy a planet in a single hit. There is only one way to end it without severe damage, and that's for one of his allies to get in it's path. I must stop it."

"I'll get you there," Kaushal said, pulling a hoverboard from his dimension. "Hold on tight. This is going to be a rough ride."

"Hey!" Shadow complained, although it was too late. "He asked me to, Kaushal!"

Shade appeared after them, having flown. he nodded, back to his silent self.
"Kaushal! Spike asked me to get him there!" Shadow said, obviously iratated with the other person's leaping in.
"Shadow, it's ok, i got there in time, and that's all that matters." Spike said, trying to diffuse the situation.

"I just thought Spike might like a ride back on the hoverboard."
"Speaking of which, I so want one of those," Tails said.

"Hey, Tails, nothing's stopping you from making one." Spike commented.
Shadow just looked away from Kaushal.

"I need to study the design," Tails said. "It's obviously gotta be Al Bhed tech. I haven't managed to concentrate flight like that."
"Well, it is Al Bhed tech, but you're welcome to take a crack at it," Kaushal said, giving it to him.

"Hey, Kaushal, you know, I've been thinking." Shadow said, looking over at Kaushal. "I'd like to test your strength."
Spike looked at Shadow. "Bet you wouldn't be a match." then smiled mischieviously.

"Hm, just like Tails. He and mechines are usually inseperable." Shadow mused, looking around.
"We could fight again, Shadow, then i could win." Spike said, looking like he wanted a fight.
"Not in your life, Spike." Shadow said, just as interested.
