It was Tuesday morning and Shadow drove his Ducati Monster motorcycle to school; and of course he always wears his motorcycle helmet when driving his bike. He went to the school entrance and parks his ride in the parking lot, removing his helmet and puts it in his backpack.

He walked to the entrance through the hallway to his locker. He unlocked his locker and put his backpack in it. On the locker he had a picture of him and Nebula together. He smiled a bit and closes it.

"Hey, goth boy. I can't wait for us to dance tomorrow" Fiona leaning on the side of the lockers with her arms crossed.

Shadow didn't say anything; he closed his locker and glares at the red fox, "Hmph, you're not my date for the dance. I suggest you stay away from me"

"Come on, Shadsy. I'm a lot better than that creepy new girl" Fiona growled, trying to get him to be his girlfriend again.

"You're wrong! Nebula is a lot nicer and caring. You are just selfish and a slut. You only care about popularity, not me!" he hissed angrily.

"Oh, yeah? How long are you gonna protect her? She'll simply lose control of her anger like last time. Just like Sonic" Fiona chuckled evilly.

"Hmph, Nebula is different from him. Also, Nebula is not a damsel in distress too. So bye Fiona" Shadow said and walks away.

Fiona glared at him as he walks away, "Just wait until tomorrow, I will get you"

Shadow was having algebra class and his friends were there too, even his friendly rival Sonic. Tails happens to be a genius in algebra. But Shadow has his own mind on math. He focused on figuring out answers on the numbers. He marked some with an X if it's wrong answer.

"Okay, The square root of 6561 is.....81" Shadow said quietly.

He then goes to next one.

"Divide 7x2 + 5x - 9 is....7x - 9" Shadow wrote down the next one.

"And Divide -255x3 + 81x2 + 283x - 25

17x - 2 Is... -15x2 + 3x + 17;" he marked it with an X in case it's wrong answer.

After he was done, the algebra teacher collects the classmates' work to correct them all later on. The bell rings and Shadow is on his way to music class.

Once he was there he was gonna practice on playing the electric guitar this time. He picks it up and plugs it to the speakers. The class had earpieces as well did the teacher along with Shadow. He fiddled with the strings for a moment until he starts to play 'Simple and Clean' Hikari rock version.

With each tone on the guitar, he swings his quills around like a rock-star. He played it harder and harder and then less harder. He really seems to feel the music flow through him. He even glides on the floor on his knees, finishing the song.

The classmates cheered wildly for him, even Nebula did too.

"Thank you guys. Who's next?" Shadow asked his classmates.

"I am" Sonic said, taking out his Underground guitar and stands in front of them, ready to play. He began to play the song 'Slow Ride' with his guitar and did some awesome moves like swing his head and tapping his foot on the floor.

Amy was too overjoyed to see her blue boyfriend acting like a rock-star.

He even spins around with the guitar as he played and finished doing a Gene Simmons by sticking out his tongue.

"WHOOOHOOO!" he howled and stops playing the guitar. He walks back to his seat which is next to Amy.

"You did well Sonikku" Amy smiled at him.

"Thanks Amy" Sonic said.

It was now Silver's turn and he takes out his electric guitar to play. He played the song version of 'Blow Me Away' by Breaking Benjamin.

Silver bowed and swings his quills while playing the guitar and rapidly played on the strings making a loud tone on it. He then hit the strings with a swipe and the tones of the music got louder or lower.

Blaze was too overjoyed like Amy, watching her boyfriend playing the guitar.

"Oh man, he's so awesome" Blaze said in her mind, watching him play until he was done playing after the final tone. He walked up to his seat and placed the guitar aside.

"Good work, Silver. You're getting better I see" the music teacher said, "Now class. Today you'll be in partners and I want you to choose any songs you like and put it into your own music tones. Good luck"

Shadow and Nebula were partners, too bad for Fiona she wasn't quick so she partners with her boyfriend Scourge.

"So what songs do you like best?" Nebula asked.

"Well.....'Bring Me To Life' by Evanescence. And I was also wondering if you're good at singing" Shadow said.

"Sometimes" Nebula said.

Shadow and Nebula walks up to the stage and takes out their instruments; Shadow his electric guitar and Nebula with the electric keyboards. They began playing 'Bring Me To Life' in instrumental.

Nebula starts out by playing the music notes from the song. Shadow loved that music tone from the song that is playing by Nebula.

He then began playing on his guitar when the music in the song gets more epic. Nebula liked how good Shadow was at playing the electric guitar. They then began to sing the song together with Nebula starting.

Nebula: How can you see into my eyes like open doors?

Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb

Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold

Until you find it there and lead it back home

Shadow plays his guitar and says, 'Wake Me Up' along with Nebula.

Nebula: Wake me up inside

Shadow: I can't wake up

Nebula: Wake me up inside

Shadow: Save me

Nebula: Call my name and save me from the dark

Shadow: Wake me up

Nebula: Bid my blood to run

Shadow: I can't wake up

Nebula: Before I come undone

Shadow: Save me

Nebula: Save me from the nothing I've become

Nebula: Now that I know what I'm without

You can't just leave me

Breathe into me and make me real

Bring me to life

They sang together. The classmates were impressed but not Scourge and Fiona. They really want to make their lives miserable.

Shadow: Wake me up

Nebula: Wake me up inside

Shadow: I can't wake up

Nebula: Wake me up inside

Shadow: Save me

Nebula: Call my name and save me from the dark

Shadow: Wake me up

Nebula: Bid my blood to run

Shadow: I can't wake up

Nebula: Before I come undone

Shadow: Save me

Nebula: Save me from the nothing I've become

Nebula: Bring me to life

Shadow: I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside

Nebula: Bring me to life

Nebula: Frozen inside without your touch

Without your love, darling

Only you are the life among the dead

Shadow: All this time I can't believe I couldn't see

Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me

Nebula: I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems

Got to open my eyes to everything

Shadow: Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul

Don't let me die here

There must be something more

Nebula: Bring me to life

The song was getting more epic and intense as they sang together. The Teacher noticed their singing voices suits together.

"They are great dude" Silver whispered to Sonic.

"Yeah they sure are" Sonic agreed.

Shadow: Wake me up

Nebula: Wake me up inside

Shadow: I can't wake up

Nebula: Wake me up inside

Shadow: Save me

Nebula: Call my name and save me from the dark

Shadow: Wake me up

Nebula: Bid my blood to run

Shadow: I can't wake up

Nebula: Before I come undone

Shadow: Save me

Nebula: Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life

Shadow: I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside!

Nebula: Bring me to life!

Shadow and Nebula finished singing the song. The class applauded and they bow for them.

"That was fantastic, Mr. Shadow and Ms. Emerald! Well done!" the teacher clapped.

"Thank you" both said in unison and got down the stage. Their friends were very happy at this.

"You two are awesome!" Amy cheered.

"Thanks, Amy" they both said.

After music class was over, they head to the cafeteria to have lunch. Shadow simply has a hot dog with ketchup; Nebula also had a hotdog too. She prefers to have ketchup on it since she hates mustard.

Knuckles was having his sandwich; that was until he got something hit on the back of his head, "Ow! What the!" he saw that it was Rouge's wing.

"Sorry" Rouge smiled nervously.

"Hmph, don't flap your batty wings on me, Rouge!" Knuckles scoffed.

"I said sorry okay" Rouge shook her head and sat next to him. Tails was sitting with his best friend Sonic and had a talk about Wednesday.

"Are you really gonna dance with Amy, Sonic?" Tails asked Sonic.

"Yeah, but I'm kinda too shy still. It's the very first time" Sonic said with a slightly pale face.

"Sonic, you'll do just fine. Don't stress yourself" Tails said.

"Okay I will Tails. I guess you're with Cream"

"Cream and I are just friends right now, I need to know the time I can confess to her" Tails said. Then Amy came to their table with her food-tray.

"Can I sit here?" Amy asked.

"Yeah sure Ames" Sonic said and Amy sat in front of him. She flickers her green eyes with love for a moment and Sonic sighs in love.

Nearby Sally was watching them with jealously, "You damn pinky" she said to herself quietly.
