The rain poured down hard. She sat on a bench in the park getting soaked. He wasn't there anymore. She knew this, but she just couldn't accept it. Who was she suppose to squishy now? She wasn't sure. Everything was so muddy in her mind.
"Ah-Choo!" she sneezed. It was cold. But where could she go. The suppression squad took back the castle. There was nowhere for her to go. But it was so cold and wet here.
BOOM! BANG! The thunder sounded up above. She flinched slightly. Those sounds were starting to scare her more and more each day. She wanted him to come back. Yet he never will. He had been arrested and escorted to Zone Jail. She no longer had a purpose. She was nothing.
BANG! She flinched again. It was so cold. Maybe if she rolled up into a ball, she would be safe from the lightning. It was still cold and wet. The water just kept coming.
"Stop raining!" She ordered, throwing her head back to yell at the heavens. She laid her head on her knees. It was still raining. The thunder kept coming and she kept flinching.
"Ah-choo!" she sneezed again. She was freezing. She was unhappy. And she was probably sick from being outside too long. But did the sky care about how she felt? Nope! It just kept making her life so much worse. "Stupid rain." She mumbled to herself.
Then the wind began to pick up. Luckily for her it wasn't carrying the rain with it, but it was still icy cold. She threw her head back and screamed once again. "Would you stop being such a jerk to me, you stupid sky?" She yelled. Strange. She didn't feel the rain falling on her face. She opened her eyes to see an umbrella over her head. The wind was still blowing though. It was a little lighter. Her eyes followed the hand holding the umbrella to the shoulder it was connected to. Then she saw his face. The yellow fox was raising an eyebrow at her. "What do you want? Stupid." She hissed.
"You're only stupid if you stay out in the rain." He stated simply.
"I guess that makes you an idiot too." She retorted pointing out that he was standing in the rain.
He turned around and smirked secretly. "I came to give you an umbrella and dry you off some. If I'm an idiot for this. At least I'm a smarter idiot then you."
"Touché!" She said uncurling some.
"Way aren't you inside anyway?" He asked.
"Like you don't know Miles!" She said glaring at him. "I have nowhere to go." She stood up. "Ever since you and Sonic Prime made Scourgey go away to Zone Jail, I have had nothing to do!" She stomped her foot, causing mud to sling everywhere. Miles's hair stood on end as the mud hit his back. She covered her mouth. "I am so dead!" She thought to herself.
Miles took a deep breath. "I'm covered in mud aren't I?" He asked slowly. She nodded guiltily. "I can't read head movements Rosy." He said after a moment. He took another deep breath. He turned and glared at her. She was standing there twiddling her thumbs unsure of what to do. He shook his head. He grabbed her hand and placed the umbrella in her hand. Her head jolted up and looked at him.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"You claim to have nothing to do, right?" He questioned. Rosy nodded her head. "Well, you can hold the umbrella and walk with me home." He pretty much ordered.
Rosy walked beside him in silence as she held the umbrella. Though, Miles's hand was above her's. She did not feel comfortable. Miles grabbed his keys from his shirt pocket and unlocked his front door.
He lived in a workshop away from the castle. He wiped his feet on the mat and entered.
"There. I held the umbrella for you while I walked you home." Rosy said holding the umbrella up for him to take. "Here you go."
Miles shook his head. "You don't seem to get it do you?" He questioned.
"Get what?" She asked tilting her head.
"Where are you going to go stay when you leave here?" He asked. "Back to the park so you can just get even more soaked?"
Rosy looked down at the ground.
"You need to start thinking things through Rosy." Miles said as he grabbed her hand. "Crazy or not. You still have think things through."
She looked up at him. "Well, what do you suppose I do then?" She asked.
"There's a guest room here." He stated simply as he drug her inside. "It's that room right there." He pointed to a door.
"You're offering me a place to stay?" Rosy questioned. "Why?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Miles asked. "You're a valuable ally to have. If you're not on our side it could pose some problems for us."
Rosy laughed. "Will I be able to squishy things?" She asked feeling happy again.
"Of course!" Miles stated with a sly grin. "But you just can't squish anything, okay? You have to let me give you the say so before you squish anything or anyone. Are we clear?"
"I guess." Rosy said pouting. "Can I always squishy Scourgey though?"
"Yes." Miles nodded. "You'll always be allowed to squish Scourge." He placed the umbrella on the hat rack by the door. "But first, you need a shower." He waved his hand by his noise. "You haven't had a good one in a while have you?"
Rosy shook her head.
"Well, you're going to start taking one every day here. Got it?" Miles ordered. "The bath is right here." He walked to it and opened the door for her. "Go take one now please."
"But what will I wear?" She asked. "This is my only dress."
"I'll find you something to wear." Miles stated. "Just go take a shower this instant."
"Okay!" Rosy saluted as she went to bathe.
"This is going to take a while." Miles sighed. "But molding her into a good soldier will be worth it. At least she's gotten a little bit saner since Scourge has left." He searched through his house looking for clothes for her to wear. "Great. I don't have any girls' clothes. I probably should've thought of this." He grabbed a pair of his PJs and walked back to the bath room. "Rosy!" He called as he knocked on the door. "I brought you some clothes."
"Okay." Rosy answered. "Just bring them in."
"Okay." Miles opened the door and placed the clothes on the water closet of the toilet. "They're on the water closet." He said as he looked up. Expecting to see a shower curtain, he was surprised to see that she hadn't drawn it and that he could see her very well. His eyes darted to the floor and picked up her dirty clothes. "I'm going to put your dirty clothes in the wash." He said as he walked out and closed the door behind him.
"Thank you!" Rosy replied.
"You're welcome!" Miles answered. He was losing his composer. He threw in a load of clothes in the washer and turned it on. "I didn't see that." He told himself. "I didn't see that at all." He went and picked up the phone. He dialed a number quickly.
"Bonjur!" a French male voice responded.
"Hi, Patch." Miles said.
"Bonjur, Miles! What ez up?" He asked.
"I recruited Rosy." Miles stated.
"Why did you get zat looney moster?"
"Because Patch, if she can cause trouble for us, it's best to have her on our team."
"Very well, how ez it going?"
"Training her is going to be very hard." Miles placed his hand over his chest, hoping to slow it down.
"Really? What has she done?" Patch asked curiously.
"Um…" Miles thought about how to word it properly. "Well, she's taking a shower. And apparently doesn't know that when you take a shower you should draw the curtain."
"What?" Patch screamed. "Explain zis more."
"She needed something to wear. I brought her one of my PJs. She told me to just bring it in. I presumed that the curtain would be drawn. So I placed it on the water closet. And when I looked up I saw… well." Miles voice ran off as he sat on the floor.
"Wooow." Patcha said. "Miles got himself a little show."
"Shut up!" Miles ordered. His face was a bright red now.
"Well, aren't we touchy?" Patch teased. "Zough she is nuts. You should've expected zis."
"Apparently I'm an idiot." Miles stated. "But where am I suppose to get clothes for her?"
"Well, let's see. You can let her wear your clothes or you can take her to sometzing called ze store and let her blow all your money." Patch laughed.
"Hardy har har." Miles said. "I hate stores."
"I know. Well, I've got to get some shut eye." Patch said. "I suggest zat you try to do ze same."
"Yeah." Miles said after hearing the click. "If I can survive the night with Rosy." He said getting up and going up to his room. There was a private bathroom in there. He really wanted to get the mud out of his fur.

08.08.2011 Deathy: I finished this chapter. I'll try to write more soon. I know, you guys probably don't see a lot of fics starring these guys. I'm also working on an animation medley right now. So it'll be a long time in between chapters. Please READ & REVIEW!
27.08.2011 Deathy: I just edited this. I did finish the animation medley, simply because I've transferred schools. I have a family reunion today, but I'll start writing chapter 2 on the car ride there in between saying the team rocket motto with my sister. We're having a pokemon kick. So you may see some of that. Also, I'm thinking about doing a comic and/or animation of these too. And in other good news, my letter in Sonic Universe #31 was answered in the sonic grams! So happy! You can all tell it's me! I have claimed Miles Prower #1 fan slot! I have claimed it!
