This is what Fun is?
"Yes. Wait, you know them? Where are they?" Shadow asked.
"They are on Angel Island, guarded by Knuckles the Echidna. They are only allowed to be used in danger around the world. The one who uses them becomes powerful. But the Master Emerald keeps the Island floating in the air, otherwise it will crash" Nebula tells him about the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald.
"My father wants them....to make Planet Doom beautiful" Shadow lied.
"Well why didn't you say so?" Nebula asked.
"Well because the planet doesn't look so well as I told about it has no sun to make better life there" Shadow said.
"Hmm.... Better hope it would have a sun" Nebula said, "I don't know much about the chaos emeralds but I do know they can transform a mobian to something super. It never happened before because they are kept safe from the guardian on Angel Island"
"Okay then. I better go there with you. I better hope my father won't use them for something else" Shadow said.
"Excuse me?" Nebula asked.
"Nothing, let's go" Shadow said.
While walking in the park that is filled with trees and bushes, Shadow looks at the kids playing in the grass field while the family watches them.
He smiles a bit at seeing them play but he never had it like that as a child, "Kids these days have fun" he said. Then a ball fell near his shoes and a human kid came over.
"Sorry mister" the kid said to him. Shadow picked up the ball and gave it to him.
"It's okay" Shadow handed over the ball to him.
"Thanks Mr. Hedgehog" the kid cheered and ran back to play with his siblings.
"Now that's very nice of you, Shadow" Nebula said.
Much to Shadow's confusion he has not done anything good his whole life, "Thanks. First time I do something for an earthling" he said.
"But you are not evil are you, Shadow?" Nebula asked him.
This got hard for Shadow to explain if he's good or bad, "No, of course not" he said.
"In our world, good things bring happiness and people smiling. Bad things bring sadness and disaster in life" Nebula said.
"I see. It seems that it's not very right in my life" Shadow said.
"How come?" Nebula asked.
"Hard to explain. My father trained me for battle mostly" Shadow said.
"He never brought happiness to you?" Nebula asked.
"It's hard to think of it. No he hasn't. He only taught me about courage and destroying enemies" Shadow said. Nebula got worried, Shadow has killed induvial on his planet.
"No, have you...killed someone?" Nebula asked him worried. Shadow did not want to say this in public; he grabs her and runs to somewhere to tell her in private. He ran to an alley and made sure no one will know.
"Nebula. It's hard to say this but in my training on my planet my father tells me to slice some opponents" Shadow said.
"What? Your father is kind a mean" Nebula said.
"That's what I think too but I don't know what to believe anymore. Your planet is like.....beautiful. No war, no evil monsters, and no killing innocent beings" Shadow said.
Nebula placed her hand on his cheek without making him mad.
"Shadow, I believe it's because you got no happiness and joy. Something that you've been missing" Nebula said in a calm comforting voice.
"I guess so" Shadow said.
"Well I'm gonna bring you happiness. We can go to the arcade hall to play some games or even go to the amusement park" Nebula said.
"Now that sounds something fun. What's an amusement park?" Shadow asked.
"It's a place where you have fun and get happiness. Like you can ride a rollercoaster, going into the ghost house, tunnel of love, bumping carts and even test your strength" Nebula explained to him.
"Show me. Sorry if I ask too much questions about Earth. But let's go" Shadow said.
"It's alright. Let's go to my car so I can show you" Nebula said. They both get to her car that was parked down the park. But Shadow carried Nebula to it with his super-speed.
Once they found it, Nebula unlocks the car and they got in, driving to the amusement park.
When they arrived, they saw the whole place and Shadow was surprised.
"So this is Station Square's amusement park?" Shadow said.
"Yup, let's go to the ticket stand" Nebula said and they both go to get their tickets.
"Two persons please and armbands for the rides" Nebula said to the ticket guy.
"Okay, 8 dollars then" The ticket guy said. Nebula took out 8 dollars and handed it over to him, they soon got their tickets and ride-armbands.
"Whoa" Shadow was surprised to see how big the rides are.
"So, wanna start on the roller-coaster?" Nebula asked him.
"Yeah sure, it seems to be like the spacecraft I had" Shadow smirks. They go to the roller-coaster and got into the first cart.
"Please hold onto the cart and fasten your seat belts" the computer voice said to the riders of the roller-coaster.
"Better do what he said" Shadow fastens his seat belt and so did Nebula.
"Ready?" Nebula smirks at Shadow.
"Ready!" Shadow grinned. The carts of the roller-coaster go up for the lane and come higher up, giving them a brief view of the whole amusement part.
"Wow" Shadow was impressed by the view.
"Here it comes" Nebula said and they feel the track going down.
"Alright. WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" they both screamed as the cart drives in high speed on the tracks.
A while later after riding on the roller coaster, Shadow was feeling the energy flowing in his body which he never felt before. Was this the feeling of having fun with an earthling hedgehog?
"Wow! That was a blast!" Nebula giggled.
"Yeah. I wanna try something else here now" Shadow chuckled.
"Okay, let's try the shooting range" Nebula said.
Shadow grins and they head for the shooting range, where the price was a plushie UFO.
"Ladies first" Shadow allowed Nebula to play first.
Nebula picked up the air-gun and held it steady.
"Get 50 points for the middle in the point, 10 points at the edges and zero if you miss, you need 150 points for the UFO plushie" the man near her said.
"Alright, let's do it" Nebula smirks and fires, but she only managed to shoot the edge. She shook her head and fires again, shooting almost to the middle but not even close enough.
"Ah, man. I'm not very good with this" Nebula sighs.
"I got this" Shadow steps in and takes the air gun to fire. He shoots it twice in the middle and then hit the edge.
"Whoa" Nebula was amazed by this.
Shadow then fires again at the target and hits the middle target.
"Congratulations sir, you just got 150 points for the target. So here's your UFO plushie" the man gave Shadow and Nebula their plushie.
Nebula squeezed the UFO plushie, she giggled cutely and they keep going through the place.
A while later; they decide to have lunch at the food court of the amusement park. Nebula ordered French fries and two soda drinks. Shadow doesn't know much of this earth food; on his planet their food is made of alien slimy pudding-like and sometimes they usually move.
He picks one French fry up and tastes sniffs it just to be sure it's safe to eat it.
"Hmmm" he then stuffs it into his mouth and eats it, it did taste well but not as the chips he took from the machine.
"Not bad, Nebula. I like it. But you would love the food on my planet?" Shadow said.
"How is it like?" Nebula asked.
"Slimy, pudding like and it moves" Shadow tells her. By hearing it, Nebula got a disgusting picture in her head.
"Uhh.....I don't eat anything that's alive. No offense though" Nebula said shyly.
"I understand. You don't like slimy living food?" Shadow asked her.
"Nope, if I ate those I would throw up" Nebula said.
"I see" Shadow nodded.
After being at the amusement park, they drove to Nebula's place which is a luxury apartment. Shadow was amazed how it looked and follows Nebula inside. He saw many decorations and a picture of Nebula with Silver and a lavender-colored cat.
"You wonder who the cat is. It's Silver's girlfriend Blaze" Nebula said.
"Cool. Silver must be lucky" Shadow said.
"Yup. And I'm happy for him too. Sometimes he's a little naïve most of the time" Nebula said.
"Okay. So, you got anything to watch on the TV. I do watch TV on my planet but not this type of TV" Shadow said.
"Wow. So you do have TV on your planet. Does it include movies, sports, cartoons, and stuff?" Nebula asked.
"Well, mostly sports and movies" Shadow said.
"Okay, how about we watch Jurassic World, it's about recreated dinosaurs that lived on earth 65 millions of years ago but thanks to DNA they got recreated" Nebula said.
"Wow, let's watch it" Shadow said. Nebula inserts the disc and they both sat on the couch.
