"S-3597 you are cleared for landing" a female voice said over the speaker in a f-14 pilot's helmet.

"Acknowledged, control tower," the man said as he slowly pulled back on the thrusters and let the jet desend onto the landing strip.

"S-3691 to control tower," another voice could be heard over the radio.

"Go ahead S-3691," the female voice replied as the f-14 pilot slows the plane to its taxi'ing speed.

"Requesting permission to land," the voice said as the pilot pulled the plane into its hanger.

"You are cleared to land," the female voice from the control tower said as the pilot shut off the jets engine and released his compression hose from the air pump near the bottom of his seat.

"Acknowledged," the male voice said as another jet prepared to land on the landing strip.

'Took him long enough,' the first pilot thought as he released the jets hatch and stood up to remove his helmet.

"Glad to see your flight sortie was a success," a female officer said as she looked the pilot in the face and smiled.

"Thank you, Phonix," the pilot said as he placed his helmet in the seat and smiled back at her.

"How many times do I have to tell you not to use my call-sign when its just to two of us!" Phonix said as she placed her hands on her hips and smiled a mischievious smile towards the pilot.

"You win, Mona," the pilot said as he threw both of his hands to the side and shrugged. "Didn't I tell you not to fly for a while in your condition," he said as he suddenly noticed that she was also in a flight suit and had her brown hair in a loose bun behind her head.

"Shadow," She said as she walked up towards the jets side ladder and helped the pilot climb down.

"Now who's using call-signs?" Shadow said with a slight tease in his voice as he finished stepping down and took Mona in his arms.

A sudden clearing of a person's throught made both people come to their senses.

'Its hard to believe its been 5 years since that eventful day that changed everyones lives, the event that turned them all human,' Mona thought as she watched Shadow yell at the other pilot that she recognized as Sonic. 'Those two will never get along,' she continued with a slight laugh as she looked over the two. They were both wearing pilot suits like hers that were meant for air force pilots and combat boots on their feet. Shadow had jet black hair that had the occasional red streak that ran through it and red colored irises in his eyes, while Sonic had dark blue hair with occasional normal blue streaks and greenish-bluish eyes. Not to mention that Shadow kept his hair slicked back and sortof spiky in the back area while Sonic combed his hair back but left it to lay flat.

Sonic the Hedgehog: Human factor

"As far as I know, your the only FAKER around here," Sonic said as he pushed on finger into Shadow's chest.

"I thought that you would be over that by now," Shadow snapped as he grabbed Sonic's finger and started to pull the way it was not suppose to go.

"ENOUGH YOU TWO!" Mona yelled as she saw the two starting to get into a real fight again. Here recently they have just been small arguements that end up as nothing but they have started to esculate into almost fist fights over the latest attack by Eggman. Both men stopped what they were doing and turned their attention towards Mona.

"You're both acting like children right now," She said as she let an angry look come to her face and she gave one of her many learned Shadow looks.

"Well, shes got your stare down pat," Sonic said with a nervious laugh while sticking out his other hand for a handshake, "Truce?"

"Might as well," Shadow said as he let Sonic's finger go and took his hand for a shake.

"Good now lets go get something to eat," Sonic said as he listened to his stomach rumble from his flight, "I'll buy."

"Sounds good to me," Mona said as she looked towards the C-Pad and licked her lips.

"I keep forgetting that your eating for two now, Mona," Sonic said as he slapped his head and reached for his wallet that he keeps in his left top sleeve pocket.

"You buying for me to?" Shadow asked as he turned his attention towards the flightline and watched another plane land.

"Sure, just come along," Sonic said as he started to walk towards the C-Pad dining facility and stopped when he noticed that Shadow hasn't left his spot that he was at.

"Something wrong?" Mona asked him as she noticed him looking over the flightline towards the open seas.

"I just hope they knew what they died for," Shadow said as he remembered the crew that he flown into battle with. Lt Giobardi, call-sign Geomancer, and Lt Kasimar, call-sign Sniper-one, were two of the many that didn't make it back.

"They did," Mona said as she placed her left hand on his right shoulder and faced out towards the setting sunset over the horizon of the seemingly never ending stretch of ocean that she saw before her.

"We won," Shadow said as he raised his right hand before himself as he looked down on it and when he closed it tightly, an angry look overtook his face, "but the price was just to high."

"I agree," Sonic said as he walked over to the other side of Shadow and placed his hands in the side pockets of the waist area of his suit, "Just remember, Eggman will pay for what he has caused once again and this time he might not be so lucky."

At the C-pad shortly after the group sat down to eat their meals

"It's hard to believe its been five years since that event occured," Mona said as she took another bite of her roast beef.

"Has it been that long?" Shadow asked as he sat back from finishing his meal and looked up at the ceiling as if thinking to himself, 'Has it really been that long.'

'Yes it has,' Mona replied though her mental link she shared with the man.

"Brings back a lot of memories," Sonic said as he took another bite of his third chili dog.

"What do you remember of it?" Shadow said with a angry face, "You didn't have to go through what I went through. That day was both heaven and hell to ME!"

"Woh Shadow, take a chill pill," Sonic said as he placed his hands out in front of him both defensively and apoligeticly.

"I'll show you a pill," Shadow said as he clenched a fist in front of his face, "Do you want to ingest it now or shall I force it down your throat later!"

"This is getting old, guys," Mona interjected as she sat down the mug that she was drinking her hot chocolate from. "I don't know whats got you two so uptight since October but its December now and I think you two should both chill out!" she said as she gave another one of her Shadow like stares at both of the men.

"Sure," Shadow said as he leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms in front of his chest and drooped his head down a little and closed his eyes.

"Alright," Sonic said in a huff as he scooted the chair back some and placed his right leg uptop his left knee and started to place his hands behind his head when his right elbow hit something.

"Hey do you mind?" a female Sergeant said as she took his elbow to the ribs. She was currently wearing a violet full body business suit with pants and a dark pink shirt that had its top two buttons open at the neck area. Her snow white hair was hanging loosely behind her head as it was held back by a violet hairband behind her ears. Hers iris's shined greenish in color.

"Sorry about that, Rouge," Mona said as she kicked Sonic in his shin so he would get out of her way.

"Ouch," Sonic replied to the kick as he leaned forward to rub his shin, "I'm sorry, Rouge. I really didn't see you there."

"Thats okay," She replied back, "Mind if I sit with you all?"

"Not at all," Mona said as she started to get up but was pushed back down by Shadow's arm.

"I'll get the chair," He said as he raised himself from his seat accross from Sonic's to retrieve another chair.

"He can be sweet sometimes," Mona said as she leaned back and rested her hands across her lap.

"Yeah, sweet as rat poison," Sonic said as he started to snicker at Mona's remark.

"Care to take that remark back!" Mona growled from behind her teeth as she took an angry look to her face.

"Leave the faker to me," Shadow said as he returned with the seat for Rouge to sit in and flashed an angry look towards Sonic.

"Something you said has been bothering me Shadow," Sonic said as he started to finish off his third and last chili dog.

"And whats that?" Shadow said as he turned his attention towards completely towards his rival.

"You never told us what happened to you on that day," Sonic replied back as he took a napkin from the napkin holder on the table and began to wipe his face off.

"I don't want to," Shadow said as he sat back down with the group and immediately crossed his arms accross his chest.

"Sonic's right," Rouge said as she took sat her tray down and took a seat accross from Mona, "What really happened?"

'I REALLY don't want to tell them,' Shadow thought to Mona as he took in everyones requests.

'It will make you feel better,' She thought back as she pretended to take a drink from her hot chocolate but instead turned her eyes to look into his, 'It might also end your nightmares, that your plagued with.'

"Fine," he said with a huff as he turned his head towards Mona and placed his eyes onto hers, "If you really think it will help."

"I really wish you two would stop that mental talk with each other," Sonic said with a cring and a shiver, "It creeps me out."

"Maybe me and Knuckles should start doing that then," Rouge said with a slight smile as she placed her fork down to take a drink of her soda.

"You might give him a heart attack," Mona said with a giggle as she turned her attention towards Sonic and smiled, "Besides, if you and Knuckles could learn how, then whats stopping Amy from learning."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sonic screamed as the thought got placed in his head. Everyone at the table just burst out laughing.

Meanwhile at the control tower

Two people can be seen sitting up in the Airfield Control tower monitoring incoming jets and surface to air radar signals. The first was a female Staff Sergeant dressed in a military issued BDU complete with combat boots and a BDU cap off to the side of her chair. She had pink hair and greenish colored eyes. The other was a male Senior Airman that was dressed the same as the Staff Sergeant exept his hat was hung up on the hat rack by the entryway. He was sporting a short style hair cut, dark brown in color, and his eyes were dark brownish in color. His skin was also a little tan.

"My ears are ringing," the female seargent said as she removed her headset and placed it around her neck.

"That usually means someones talking about you, Sergeant Rose," her partner said as he started to smile mischieviously towards her.

"Would you cut that out, Airman Stronheim," Sergeant Rose said as she turned her attention towards her partner, "You know I'm only intrested in one man."

"But he's an officer and your enlisted," Airman Stronheim said as he also removed his headset from his ears and turned completely around to face her.

"I don't care," she replied back, "I've been chasing him for over 8 years and I will get him eventually."

"Don't you think 8 years is to much?" he said as he sweatdropped at the mention of her words.

"I will chase him for as long as it takes for him to be mine forever," Sergeant Rose said as she started to act as if she was in another world of her own imagination.

"Whatever," Airman Stronheim said as he shook his head while turning around and placing the headset back on his head and returned to his work.

To Be Continued...

"Hello, I'm your author, WFCBarly, and we are going to take a trip to see how our actors are coming along after the script," I said as I turned on the camera and started to walk towards the set.

Sonic is still screaming at the thought of Amy being able to talk to him through thoughts.

"Hey Sonic you stop now," I said as I walked up behind him and knocked him on the head to no prevail.

"Will you stop screaming now," Shadow pleaded as he places his hands over his ears.

"This will calm him down," Rouge said as she picked up a bottle from the table and walked over to him and poured its contents down his throat.

"This will hurt," I thought as I looked at the bottle in Rouges hand, "You do know that tobasco sauce, right?"

This scene has been edited outdue to mass cussing and violent sounds and mostly because it would take to long for me to write it out, I'm sometimes lazy

"Good thing to or you would have heard all cussing and Sonic hitting himself in the head with his tray, trying to cool his mouth off," I said trying to surpress a laugh, but like above, to no prevail.

"Hits hot hunny," Sonic said with a burnt tongue and an angry look on his face as he looked at me with his arms crossed accross his chest.

"Oh well folks," I said trying to stiffle a laugh, "Please read and review. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH"

More scenes edited from view go here along with some edited out sounds of punishment

"Owie," I said in pain as I layed on the ground, beat up, while the camera's battery gave out.
