"Heh...those guys think I'm all dead..."

Shadow the Hedgehog, following the explosion of the space station ARK and the prevention of another Eggman evil plot, was chillin' in South Miami Beach, pina colada in hand, and just taking in a little R&R.

"I think I'll go give those guys a little surprise," Shadow said to himself in his typical suave voice, "...but a little later. At the moment, I believe that I'm having a little too much fun. It's been quite a while since I've been able to be at peace. This beach offers me the perfect chance for it...ah, yes, nothing but peace and....", and Shadow began to doze off...

"THERE YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

...and that doze was quickly halted. Shadow startled awake, searching around fervently with his eyes to see who had just yelled. Finding no one, he returned to his nap.......

"SHADOW!!!!!!!!!!!"

...and again he was awakened. This time, Shadow did not have to search far to find the person he was looking for. She was, in fact, standing right in front of him. She stood tall, with blue jet boots, remarkable long blue hair, and six-foot scissors that were intimidating, to say the least. The fox girl stared at the hedgehog with a gleam and her eye. Shadow squinted his eyes in an attempt to block out the sun and get a better view of this fox girl.

"Um...may I...help you?"

"YES! I'M CRAZY POCKY AND YOU CAN HELP ME BY HOLDING STILL!!!"

"Ok, NOW I'm scared...," thought Shadow to himself as he sprinted off in whatever direction he could find.

"YOU CANNOT ESCAPE!!" shouted the blue fox girl in his direction as she began to give chase.

Shadow, several hundred feet ahead of her, reassured himself with the thought that she could not possibly keep up with him. "I'm far too fast for her," he thought Just then, he looked behind him to see a sight that filled him with much fear. Through the use of her jet boots, Crazy Pocky was RIGHT BEHIND HIM.

"I TOLD YOU YOU COULDN'T ESCAPE!!!", yelled the fox girl. At this, Shadow quickly hastened his pace. "I've gotta get outta here!!", said Shadow. At this moment, most conveniently, he found an airport. "Perfect!" said Shadow, "I'll fly somewhere where no one goes! Surely my stalker will not find me there!"

Little did Shadow know that not even a hyper hedgehog such as himself could endure the horrors of....

AIRPORT SECURITY!!!!!!!!!!! *dramatic music*

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO WAIT 30 MINUTES?!?!", shouted Shadow at the customs official.

"Sir, we are merely comforming to the new regulations. We are here to protect you," replied the official. All the while, the fox girl was approaching ever faster.

"Well, thanks, but no thanks, I will find another way to get where I mean to go!" Shadow reached into his pocket and whipped out a Chaos Emerald. "Good thing I picked this up the other day...", thought Shadow.

Shadow lifted the mystical gem in the air and shouted the two words that would get him far away......"CHAOS...........CON-TROOOOOL!!!!" With that, he disappeared in a brilliant flash of green light, much to the astonishment of his onlookers and the disappointment of Crazy Pocky.

"MISTER! MISTER! WHERE WAS THAT FOX OF A HEDGEHOG HEADED TO?!?!," inquired Crazy Pocky as she grabbed the collar of the nearest airport official. "M-m-miss.......that's classified information..." "CLASSIFIED INFORMATION, MY BLUE FOOT!! YOU WILL TELL ME WHERE HE WAS GOING OR YOU WILL SUFFER MY WRATH!!!!!!!!"

At this, the airport official broke into tears...."O-ok...OK! He was headed to......Norfolk, VA! Just let me go!!!"

Crazy Pocky went to the counter. "One round-trip ticket for Norfolk, please......."

**************************************

Shadow came out of his "Chaos Control" mode and found himself at a most peculiar place.

"A WAL-MART?...YES! This is perfect! I know few people who shop here. I can hide in here for sure..." Just then he saw Crazy Pocky running up towards him. "How did she..." Shadow cut off his thought quickly so that he could get inside the store and take cover.

"YOU'LL NOT GET AWAY FROM ME THAT EASY!!", shouted the fox girl as she ran inside after him. However, both were stopped by a disruption in the store. Several clerks were surrounding the electronics department. Both the hedgehog and the fox girl stopped to see what was going on.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MORE COPIES OF SONIC ADVANCE FOR NEON AND TEI?!?!?!" This cry came from a Jigglypuff-like creature, though certainly not of the cutesy-wootsey kind. This particular Jigglypuff.....thing...had a claw on his right hand.....a MENACING-looking claw. His name was DCTyrantPuff, and he was accompanied by two of his best friends, a lime green hedgehog by the name of Neon and a yellow two-tailed fox by the name of Tei Sama.

"WHAT?!", inquired the creature. "You were saying something...what?!"
"WHAT!?", shouted Neon, Tei, and the onlookers in unison.
"You say you're sold out?!," said Neon.
"WHAT!?"
"You say you're sorry?!?", said Tei
"WHAT?!"
"WELL, THAT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH! WHAT?!", shouted the three companions in unison, as they began to whoop up on a Wal-Mart store clerk. With every stomp of the feet to the clerk, the onlookers chanted a resounding, "WHAT?!"

"EXCUUUUUUUUUSE MEEEEEEEEEEEE!", shouted Crazy Pocky, startling all, including Neon, Tei, and DCTP.

"YOU GUYS KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND A DARK HEDGEHOG?!?!?"

"Uh...you mean that one?", replied Neon, pointing to the figure standing directly beside the fox girl. "D'oh!", thought Shadow as he took off in the direction of the food stand.

"THANKIES!!!" shouted CP as she began her chase once more.

"YOU'RE WELCOME!", shouted Neon, as he went back to stomping a mudhole in the clerk.

**************************************

The chase continued throughout the store, as Shadow proceeded to knock over several food trays, cans of hair spray, nasty discount beverages, and other such commodities.

As they headed around the sports department, Crazy Pocky noticed several large fishing nets in a stand outside one of the many aisles.

"Well, if I can't catch him by hand....", thought Pocky, as she grabbed one of the nets and continued her chase.

"YOU'LL BE MINE SOON!", the blue-haired fox yelled after the dark hedgehog as they rounded the toy department.

Shadow, on the other hand, had tried all too many a method in his attempts to delay his "stalker". He threw "Rollback" signs, rubber balls from the toy department...everything. Nothing worked.

"This is growing tiresome...", thought Shadow, beginning to run a little out of breath. He once again brought out the magical jewel known to all as the Chaos Emerald. "CHAOS.....CONTROL!", yelled Shadow lifting the gem in the air just as he had done earlier. Before his transportation, Crazy Pocky grabbed onto Shadow and was transported as well, but did not appear in the same place.

**************************************

When Shadow materialized again, he found himself in the great town of NYC.

"Now THIS is more like it...", murmured Shadow to himself. "I've definitely lost her now...there is no way I'll see her here in NYC...this has got to be the LAST PLACE she could be."

Feeling renewed confidence, Shadow marched up and down the streets of NYC and Times Square, taking in all the sights and having a good time. He suddenly began to feel a pang of paranoia.

"Oh, how silly I am. I'm far away from her now, she can't get me."

"Why do you run from her?"

Shadow traced the voice to a nearby figure wearing a trenchcoat and brimmed hat.

"How can you be so sure?", inquired the dark hedgehog.

"Because, Shadow...", and with that, the figure threw off the coat and hat to reveal herself to be the very one Shadow had sought to evade...

"I AM her." Crazy Pocky quickly threw a net over Shadow, entrapping him, and took the Emerald away.

"We'll have no more of that from you," she said, "now, let's go!" The blue-haired fox began to drag off Shadow into a secluded area.

"Where are you taking me?", inquired Shadow.

"You'll see." Crazy Pocky used the Emerald to transport them............

**************************************

"Why....why....we're back at the beach where we started!" Shadow indeed found himself back at South Miami Beach.

"Yes...and now I get to do what I planned to do ALL ALONG!", said the fox with a high-pitched laugh.

Shadow became concerned, even somewhat frightened. However, this soon changed as the fox wrapped her arms around the hedgehog and kissed him.

"So that's all you wanted?", said Shadow, feeling silly for thinking her a stalker. The fox nodded in reply. "I love you."

On that remark, the dark hedgehog couldn't help but blush. He offered his arm to the fox. "Sorry about before...lemme make it up to you." The fox blushed in a way not that different from Shadow and took his arm. She nodded as they walked off into the sunset..."So what was going on back at that Wal-Mart?"
