Y/N and Sharad are back in the rehearsal. Rotor noticed her and smiled.

"Y/N! Welcome back."

"Thank you for taking care of the show, Rotor."

"No problem. So, any luck with Monty?"

"No, but let's just hope he'll come around. I did my best to convince him."

"Okay."

"Alright, folks! Tomorrow we have our first run through so let's get this show in ship-shape-shaft!"

Sharad was about to get to his position when Y/N stopped him.

"Hey, Sharad. I wanted to give this to you from the start. So you won't forget that you're not alone anymore."

She hands him a photo of himself, the wisps, Y/N, and everyone else with smiles on their faces. He looks amazed.

"Is this... us? Do you really mean it?"

"Of course. You're my friend after all."

Sharad looks like he's about to cry and hugs her tight, surprising her. She eventually shook off and hugged him back. They pulled away and she gave him a light punch on the shoulder.

"Good luck out there."

He nodded happily and ran off as everyone quickly settles up the show as all of their creativity were put into reality as everything is all setup and spectacular. Costumes, makeups, materials were good and well-made. Planets and galaxies were shown. Bunnie, in a glittering armory dress, puts up a pose on the moon planet. Freddy in his war costume with black and white makeup on his face and besides him in each are the dark warriors as they stomp their staff against the ground. Sally, in her blue hooded sparkling dress, and Sonic, in his white outfit, are in their chemistry position as their auras are filled with love. Chica, in her friendly alien costume, jumps up high from the bouncer smiles at them. Sharad and his wisps, aka Dark Arms, are in their black armored outfit. Then goes to the final performer as the ship flies down and lands on top of the planet.

"And... cue Roxy!"

The ship opened for Roxy to reveal her in a space outfit as she walks down and get into her fighting position, holding up her gadget.

"Captain's log. I must take care... for I landed on... the Planet of War."

Roxy's acting was... bad. Very bad, leaving everyone in silence.

"Ohh. Okay, so uh, let's just hold right there, folks. Uh... everyone take five." Y/N awkwardly said.

The bell rings as the show was cut short.

"What the heck is the captain's log anyway?" Roxy asked, feeling so embarrassed.

"Um... Roxy? Can I have a word?"

Y/N and Roxy are now alone in the dressing room.

"Roxy, you know I dreamed to believe that this show it's close to being fantastic, maybe even perfect."

"Thank you."

"Yeah, but you see to make it the best it can be..." Y/N took a deep breath and spoke. "Um... I gotta make some changes."

"Uh-huh."

"Like... I have to give the lead role back to Chica."

Roxy's eyes widened in surprise.

"Huh?"

"I'm just offering you the option to switch roles."

Roxy stared at her for a moment, looking back at the helmet she was holding earlier. She then sighed, knowing what she need to do.

"You're right. When I was... terrible at acting, I realize that this is not my role. My role is to be the best and be beautiful."

"So... you're switching?"

"Yeah, I'd rather sing than act. Do you still have room for me to be the friendly alien? You did promise me to look pretty. Plus, Chica deserves this lead role more than me."

Y/N sighed in relief. She was glad that she understand.

"Thank you, Roxy. This will mean the world to Chica."

"By the way, is Monty willing to perform?"

"I... I'm not sure."

As if on cue, her phone rings. Y/N gestures her to wait for a second and answers it.

"Hello??"

"Hey, it's me, Monty. You're even more annoying than your Sharad friend. I'm heading to your rehearsal right now. The letter you wrote... you're right. I even listened to Bonnie's music. I think it is time for me to shine and be the rockstar I've always meant to be."

"Th-That's great! I'm so glad you came around! We're just about to start for the final rehearsal before the show! Be there on time!"

"On it. See ya."

Y/N hung up and turned to Roxy with a biggest smile on her face.

"Monty's coming! He's coming for the show right away!"

Roxy shot up and pulled Y/N into a tight hug.

"Yes!! I knew you could bring him around!"

"I know! Come on! Let's go tell Chica that she's back in a role!"

Roxy nodded and her and Y/N bursted out of the doors to give Chica and the others the news when they stopped to see everyone frozen. They were confused on what was going on until they saw a group of G.U.N. Soldiers with their guns loaded. Commander is also here, along with Shadow and the Dark Team. This made Y/N feel nervous about this as she took a step forward. She glances at Sharad and the wisps, who're looking pale.

"Um... Can I help you guys? We're kinda in the middle of the show."

Commander stepped forward and faced her.

"We don't mean to interrupt your rehearsal, which I look forward to seeing it, we have been informed about the danger that's been roaming around your city."

"Danger? Is it Eggman??" Y/N asked, looking a little nervous.

"No. There's this dangerous alien called Eclipse, who's part of the ultimate life form like Shadow and a kind to Black Doom."

This caused everyone, except for Y/N, Sharad, and the wisps, to gasp in horror and shock.

"And we believe we have found the spy that's amongst you." Shadow said, glaring straight at Sharad, who flinched. "Isn't that right, Sharad?"

Everyone looked straight at Sharad. Sharad quickly denied it.

"What? No! I'm not Eclipse. I'm in no harm!"

"Really? Then what about those wisps? The Dark Arms?"

This caused the wisps to be scared and hid behind Sharad.

"I'm not Eclipse."

"Yeah, how do you know he's this Eclipse alien person? He's like a cool guy." Sonic defended, making Y/N feel relieved that he's on his side.

"Are you trying to convince us that there's danger among us when there's nothing bad going on around here?" Roxy asked, crossing her arms.

Just then, Monty came with a guitar in hand when he noticed the crowd.

"Um... what's going on?"

Freddy, who's close to him, leans over.

"They're saying they found this Eclipse person, whose supposed to be the most dangerous kind for all of us."

"Huh..."

"Look, we're not trying to bother you, we just need to simply have Sharad and the wisps come over to them peacefully." Commander said.

Suddenly, someone stepped forward.

"And it's for your own good and safety."

Y/N's eyes widened to see Geoffrey, who had a smug look.

"Sorry that I stopped your show. But I did what I have to."

"You called them?" Freddy questioned in confusion.

"Why?" Chica questioned, looking just as confused as Freddy.

"I noticed something suspicious about that guy. So I knew that I need to act now before it's too late. You're welcome."

"He saw us!! That lying, sneaking skunk bastard!!" Y/N thought angrily, clenching her fists.

Shadow and the Dark Team headed straight towards Sharad and wisps, who're looking ready to defend themselves while others are confused and concerned for their friends. Y/N immediately went in front, blocking their way.

"Don't you think this is a little too far? He's just a friend."

"I'm afraid you're mistaken. He's not your friend anymore. He's a monster." Rouge sadly said.

"AND I CAN SEE THROUGH THEIR DISGUISE." Omega said, already got out his armed cannon.

"Please move aside, Y/N. This is for your own safety." Shadow said, hands glowing green.

Y/N knew that they won't back down until they get what they wanted. She glances at her friends with a frown.

"Sorry, guys."

They were confused on what she mean by that until she threw a smoke bomb on them. The smoke covered up the room as everyone coughed out. Once it finally disappeared, they find not only Eclipse and the Dark Arms gone, but Y/N. Commander looked over to where they've gone and angrily shouted.

"Find them!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At Y/N's treehouse, Y/N and Eclipse rushed to their rooms to pack their stuff with the help of Dark Arms and Kirby, who noticed the commotion.

"We've got to move far, far away!"

"You know, you don't have to do that. They're after me, not you."

"I did what I have to. I can't stand of letting you get yourself hurt."

Eclipse smiled in appreciation. Their moments was cut short when they heard a loud knock on Y/N's door.

"Y/N! I know you're in here! Open up!" Shadow shouted through the door.

"It's him! Quick! To the window!" Y/N whisper shouted.

Quickly as possible, Eclipse unlocked the window and opened up wide. He lets the Dark Arms go first as they fly out. Eclipse was about to leave when the door was kick opened. Shadow finds Eclipse and Y/N, who's about to push him out.

"Shadow, please! Don't do this!"

Y/N gets between Shadow and Eclipse.

"Y/N get back!" Shadow demanded as he pushed her behind him, causing her to topple onto the floor.

Kirby tries to stop Shadow as he launches him towards his face when he easily grabbed him and tossed him aside. The ultimate lifeform summons his Chaos Spear, attempting to attack when Eclipse whistles to his Dark Arms. Cyzer rushes in and flies into him as his form begins to change. Dark Arm Power: Laser. His forearms are cyan, with an eye on each palm. He immediatedly started firing lasers at Shadow from each eye, which he quickly dodges that. Y/N would've been mad right now that they're messing up her home if she wasn't so worried for Eclipse's safety. Lasers and spears were tossed or blasted everywhere as her, the Dark Arms, and Kirby take cover. Just then, the laser is heading straight towards Kirby! Without thinking, Y/N deflected the blow by placing herself before the lasers impact.

"Agh!"

Shadow and Eclipse turned to see Y/N hurt with a bad burn on her back that they could see.

"Y/N!" they cried out.

She holds her sides in pain as Kirby and the Dark Arms rushes to her aid. Eclipse angrily punches Shadow and slams him against the wall. He stood over at the downed hedgehog and brings out his eye palm, ready to finish him off..

"Eclipse!" Y/N wailed out.

He gasps and stops at what he was doing. Eclipse turns to her as she looks him. Realization hit him as he gazes in horror at what he had alnost done as Cyzer removes itself from him. His breath hitched at the sight of the burn mark on Y/N's back. Y/N manages to get up and notices his gaze turn from Shadow to her burn on her back.

"It's alright, I'm alright! It's nothing! It's just a little burn! You managed to stop yourself."

"N-No... Stay away from me."

Ashamed, Eclipse at his sudden display of violence calls out to Cregal as it fly into him and his arms changes to wings before flying off the window with the Dark Arms following him. Shadow groans out, getting up now awake. His eyes landed on one thing. Y/N. He rushes over to her aid.

"Y/N! Are you alright?"

"I'm fine! But please, don't hurt Eclipse! He's a good friend! He's gentle!"

"You're talking nonsense! That monster was nothing!"

"It's the truth! I just thought he could change just like the rest!"

"Friend or not, he's not getting away with this!"

He lightly grabs her by the arm and marches up to her room and releases her and locks the door on her.

"And I'm not letting you get hurt by him ever again!"

Y/N tries to open the door.

"Listen, you can't! Please! Shadow!"

Shadow grabs all the furniture and barricades the door so she won't escape, patting out his hands.

"Sorry, Y/N. This is for your own good and safety."

He turns to Kirby, who flinched.

"Don't let her out."

"Pootee--"

"Just stay put!"

Gulping, he nodded. Shadow then walked away as he called the G.U.N.

"This is Shadow. Eclipse has escaped. Track him."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile in Y/N's room, Y/N began to grow desparate. She grabbed a nearby chair and launched it at the locked door. It does nothing. She grabs a poker and stabs it at the door's hinges, but nothing happens. She then shoves the poker in between the gap of the door, she attempts to push it open only for the iron rod to bend in half.

Growling in frustration, Y/N races to one of her windows that's thankfully here and opened to see Eclipse was caught and chased by Shadow and his Dark Team, and the G.U.N. soldiers as he attempts to fly away followed by Dark Arms.

"ECLIPSE!!" she wailed. "No... no..."

Defeated, she collapsed on the floor and curled herself into a ball, sobbing.

"What have I done?..."
