(Shadow's POV)

I still wasn't sure what had happened but what I did know was that Silver, Amy and Sonic's friend from the future, was in my house and I was supposed to be keeping an eye on him to make sure he didn't get lost or something.

"Shadow, where's Amy going?" Silver asked. I couldn't blame him Amy was the only person he was really comfortable around and he should have been with her; in fact the only reason he wasn't was the Faker had gotten himself and Tails lost. Figures! Amy had then given me two options: help her find Sonic or stay here and watch Silver. There was no contest; an angry Amy was not someone you wanted to spend time with, so Silver had turned up this morning. Since he'd arrived he discovered: the coffee machine; a chao egg; a fake chaos emerald I thought I'd got rid of; the keys to my motorbike and some chocolate cake no-one wanted to eat. It was a pity Silver didn't know why no-one wanted to eat it.

"She's looking for Sonic" I sighed "Silver are you always so naive?" That was when things started to go wrong. To begin with Silver looked ready to cry when I asked him that, then he did start to cry when I asked him why. Apparently it had something to do with some girl called Blaze but I wasn't sure because of course Amy picked now to call and make sure Silver was still here.

"Hi Shadow I'm just calling to... what's with all the noise?"

"One minute Amy. Silver keep it down I'm on the phone!" I called to him "Sorry Amy I said something and now he keeps mention someone called Blaze"

I heard Amy sigh on her end of the phone "I was afraid of that."

"Of what?" why does Amy always mention things after they happen?

"Well Blaze was his friend but something happened to her"

I growled slightly "I figured that out but couldn't you have told me before he came over?"

"Sorry I forgot but I'm sure you'll be fine" Amy sounded distracted "I'll talk to you later Shadow bye!"

"well that was the most unhelpful phone call in history" I muttered but something about that name bothered me if I could just remember where I'd heard it before...Cream had a friend called Blaze!

Silver had apparently decided to listen to what Amy and I were saying as everything was quite and I could hear him on the other side of the door. I should teach him that it was rude to do that so I grabbed my chaos emerald and entered the room, shame I didn't need to use the door.

"Silver what are you doing?" I've never seen anyone look so guilty; it actually made me feel bad for sneaking up on him but he'd like where we were going.

"Come on Silver I think I know someone you'd like to meet"
