Epilogue: Stories

(Celestials POV)

That had been five years ago, when they'd reappeared Dad had dragged them to the nearest cafe, and Molly and me had proudly told the heroes that he knew were everything was on the planet, EVERYTHING. Then they had exchanged stories of what had happened.

Flashback:

Sonic smiled weakly at Shadow after finishing a meal that made it seem as if he had been expecting a sixty year famine. "Heh heh, sorry about that." Rouge smiled at Shadow and twirled her finger around in his chest fur. "Will someone tell me why you look so damn thin?" Growled Shadow, trying to hide his pleasure at seeing them.

"Silver?" Silver shook his head, "No thanks. There's a pizza slice calling my name." They laughed as Silver started on the aforementioned food, "Amy then?" She shrugged, "Sure." She leaned closer to Shadow, who smiled at her, "Well..."

They had protested at leaving Shadow on the earth, and when it became apparent they weren't going to stop trying to go back to get him, they were put in suspended animation capsules. And when they awoke on the planet Xstrasa, they tried to steal a spaceship to go get Shadow, but they were caught and put in a facility that none of their powers could penetrate, none, and they were given little food, in the hopes that this would weaken them, sweet, lovable, stupid Big had died from this, and Cream had cried for days, which brought a slight increase of the amounts of water they were given.

And they'd been moved to another facility were they had to pull heavy loads and to make this worse, they were given very little food there too, so they were exhausted every day. They had lost track of how long it had gone on, but one day the humans came and took them into a ship and locked them in a cell, they'd been too exhausted from pulling the heavy weights to ask why. At least it had been a break from the labor, they were also given a little more food, but there was now the space of days between the meals, for all except Cheese, who really needed the food, the chao had been set free, but he'd continued to follow them, he had had no bow when he came back.

"... And that's what happened." Finished Rouge, who had taken over the story so that Amy could drink something. Shadow's jaw had tightened, and he'd tensed when he heard what they went through, "So what did you go through Shadow?" Asked Sonic. Shadow blinked, then looked away, "Celestial." "Yes Dad?" "You explain please."

(Celestial's POV)

So I did, I explained everything that had happened to him and us. And how he had made the Earth a prosperous planet again. I told of the enemies he'd fought to keep the planet safe, how he'd been injured many times, Shadow frowned at how much detail I went into.

"It wasn't that hard to destroy them." He said, I smiled, "Ah then how do you explain the times your spine was broken or you broke your arms? And you had to be in the hospital for MONTHS, Molly and I got so bored during those times! You weren't allowed visitors, and they thought we were fans, until you told them we're your daughters." I said, hugging him, Shadow smiled and patted my back. "You got MARRIED Shadow? The Ultimate Life-form got MARRIED?" Asked Sonic tauntingly. "No."

"Then why do you have two daughters?" Asked Silver, Molly and I smiled, "He adopted us. My Mother died and he took care of me."

End Flashback:

And now, five years later they all look healthy and are older versions of the photo versions. We are one big happy family, Sonic and Tails worked together and created a kind of vehicle that would teleport you to wherever you wanted to go in seconds, you would seem to disintegrate in one place, and reassemble in the other, but what was really happening was you were traveling through the air on the other side of the sound barrier. It is one of my favorite kinds of travel.

Knuckles and Rouge married and have kids, and now I must leave my room and go downstairs, for we are all going to pick up my mother, Amy, wait, did I neglect to write that? I can't believe it! Before I go farther I must inform you, dear reader, that Shadow and Amy married five years ago, as soon as Amy and the others were healthier, I have one baby brother, Dash the Hedgehog, who is the exact replica of father except for his green eyes, which are like mother's, and today, we are all going to pick up mother, who has just given birth to another child, a girl this time, and strangely enough, she is a seedrian child.

And I'm allowed to choose her name! I am so excited.

(End Celestial's POV)

When they were all in the car Amy turned and smiled at Celestial, "What shall we name her?" The tiny seedrian she held in her arms was a light red, with black rose buds in her hair, Celestial thought for a moment. "How about... Dusk?" Amy smiled, so did the baby, Dash gasped excitedly, "She smiled Mom she smiled!" Molly pulled him back down onto the seat, "Yes, it's nice she smiled but you have to follow the safety rules!" "To hell with the safety rules!" Said Dash, sounding very much like his father.

Shadow chuckled, "I agree, but Dash, if you don't want to wear a seat belt at least sit down." "Alright." Dash listened to anything Shadow said. They headed home for the party they had set up. So Celestial and Molly were big sisters, Shadow and Amy were husband and wife, and they had two new children, everything was perfect.

Author note: Sorry for taking so long with that, I might do oneshots of some of the battles Shadow had, if you have an idea for one, send it to me. By review or message, I don't care which. Good day/afternoon/evening to you!
