Summary: Okay in this story Shadow will take Sonic's place as hero although he will be happier and Maria will be alive and Sonic will take Shadow's place and Sonic's a girl so if you don't like gender benders (or whatever you call them) don't read this story.

Okay this is my third fanfic and please review and has a lot of chapters and also there are a few Sonic games I haven't played and I also haven't read the comics or the comics with Sally and the others in it but I have watched the show with Sally in it and I don't like her so she and anyone else in the comics with her in it and the show will not be in here so there will be none of those characters there will only be the characters from Sonic Adventure DX, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Sonic Heroes, There may be a small chance the Babylon Rouges may be in it, There also may be Silver, and Blaze (but don't count on Silver being in it a lot for I hate him so sorry for those who like Silver) Okay anyway I'll shut up and get the story started.

Oh also here are the couples Shadonic (Shadow and Female Sonic), Knuxouge (Knuckles and Rouge), Taiream (Tails and Cream), and one-side ShadAmy (Shadow and Amy) and 4 of my OCs and now I will shut up and get the story started now and also two OCs of mine will take Prof. Gerald (actually Prof. Gerald won't even exist in this story) and Maria's places on the ARK and I will have a few other of my OCs in this.

This " used when talking and underlined words will be thinking

*Shadow's POV*

Sonic's been quiet since I told her about mine and Maria's parents and grandparents wonder why she also looks like she's off in her own little world "Sonic?" she doesn't answer she's just staring "Sonic?" I snap my fingers in front of her face and she looks at me "Huh what?" I almost sighed "You go off into your own little world all the time you know that?" "No I didn't know." Hmm something's wrong with her "Alright Sonic what's wrong?" "What do you mean?" "I can tell something's wrong with you Sonic now answer the question." "I don't know exactly." "How can you not know?" "I'm feeling these strange feelings for some reason." strange feelings? "When do you feel them Sonic?" "When I'm around you." when she's around me? wait does that mean that she? "When I told Rouge this she said that I liked you but I don't know what she meant and I still don't." well if she told Rouge and Rouge said she likes me then I guess that's good right but I don't know.

*End of Shadow's POV*

*Sonic's POV*

He's not saying anything I get up to go into the kitchen and put my stuff away when Shadow grabs my arm "Put the plate down." I put the plate down and Shadow stood up and I looked him in the eye and he did the same and then our faces got closer and closer and then our lips touched and then I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his arms around my waist and we both had our eyes closed and then a few minutes later we pulled away and both opened our eyes and looked into each others eyes again and we stood there for a few minutes and then Shadow asked me a question "I don't you have anything to do on Monday night right?" "No I don't why are you asking?" I think I knew why he was asking "Would you like to go out then on Monday night?" I smiled "Of course Shads." Shadow smiled at that "It sounds a lot better with you saying it and not Amy." "Really?" "Of course it does."

Okay please review and by the way this is the end of this fanfic but I'm going to make a sequel I promise also I will accept anyone's OCs if they want them in the sequel so bye and please review.
