The next day after Sparx and Gem went on a walk.

Gem: when we get home we just barely dodged a flamethrower sent by Flare. "ALRIGHT WHAT IS GOING ON???!!!" I asked. Sylvia came to me and said. "Thank god you're here, they've been at this almost since you left, you've gotta get them to stop!" "Where's crystal?" I asked. "She's busy elsewhere." Sylvia said. "Alright, leave this to me." I told her. I used Hydro pump on Shadow and Flare when they used quick attack against each other. "Come on Flare you need to get your anger under control, everyone knows you've got anger issues. Just CALM DOWN!" Shadow said. "I'll make you pay fore scaring us." Flare said. "Whatever, I give up. I guess I've failed again." Shadow said as he began to walk away. Huh, normally that gets Flare to stop fighting, oh well, guess I gotta do it again. "DON'T YOU JUST WALK AWAY FROM ME!" He sent an ember at Shadow and it was a direct hit. "You've just made a grave error." Shadow said.

His eyes lit up as Flare got pinned to the ground. "Ya like that? No? How about now?" Shadow said. "UGH I'M SORRY JUST LET ME MOVE!" Flare yelled. "Good, glad we could come to an understanding." Shadow said as he let up. "Is it just me or are his rings darker than normal." I asked Sylvia. "It's not just you." She said.

Shadow:

DAMMIT, my anger got the best of me, almost like it did that one time, I mustn't let it happen again. In order to keep everyone safe I've kept a distance. But these problems are resurfacing, if it happens again, I am going to have to return to the way I was before after it happened.
