Mystic Ruins Hotel

Rei: Shadow, try to calm down. It's not like he hasn't said more idiotic comments.

Shadow: True.
Amy: Would you like to join us for chocolate cake Rei?
*Shadow's ears twitch at "chocolate"*

Rei: *face gose copletely blank for half a second* Sure, *gives a small smile*

Sonic: Any idea where's the Knucklehead?
Amy: He should've been here by now... Along with Tikal. Huh. Where are they?
Tails: No way... He didn't take her out on a date immedietly after he lost that bet with Rouge did he?
Shadow: *eyeing chocolate cake* Hmph. They're late, they're at fault.
Sonic: I'm thinking faker just doesn't want anyone else to see him pigging out on the chocolate cake. *eyes glint*
Shadow: *glares at Sonic as if he's saying, "Shut up before I kill you"*
Sonic: *smiles mischieviously as if he knows something*

Rei: *Eyes the cake as well.* I know, why he's not here.

Sonic: ? Really? Why?

Rei: It's not my place to say.... *Is still eyeing cake secretly*

Sonic: I'm sure I can run a quick sweep of the place to find Knuckles. *about to take off, when something stops him forcefully, causing him to fall back down* Woah!
Amy: Oh no you don't! You're staying here for the celebration.
Sonic: What do you take me for Ames? Faker? The only reason he hasn't tried to go is because of the chocolate cake.
Shadow: I'm warning you hedgehog. Watch yourself, or my gift for you will end up being your head on a silver platter. *glare*
Cream: But that wouldn't be a good gift because Mister Sonic wouldn't know you gave him his head!
Sonic: ...
Shadow: ...
Amy: ...
Tails: ...
Cream: ...Did I say something wrong?
Tails: Uhh, I think I'll just hack into the security cameras and look for him.
Amy: Thanks Tails!
Shadow: *eyes the cake again*

Rei: When are we getting some cake!? Hopefully the they're still working.

Amy: ? What does that mean?
Cream: *gasp* Does that mean Mister Knuckles if fighting someone?
Sonic: What!? He started the party without me?!
Tails: Well, it turns out there are a few cameras down, but I think I see him and- Oh.
Sonic: What is it Tails?
Tails: He was fighting against Whip I think.
Sonic: Well, that makes me feel better.
Shadow: The fact that the Echidna wasn't getting much of a battle? *smirk*
Sonic: *thumbs up* Exactly!
Amy: That's a little mean Sonic...
Tails: Wow... Mana seems angry...
Sonic: How angry?
Tails: I'd say on the level of Amy's temper.
Sonic: Wow, that's kinda scary.
Amy: What did you say?
Tails and Sonic: Nothing, nothing.

Rei: Hmpth, maybe she'll finally get him to pay us back for some of his damages.

Tails: Well, he seems like he's busy, so I guess we'll just have to start the celebration without them.
Sonic: Alright! Chilidogs here we come! *heads to the table with all the food*
Amy: *giggles* I thought so! *follows Sonic*
Cream: Wait! Amy!
Amy: What is it Cream?
Cream: I think we should start with the cake.
Amy: What are you talking about? The cake is for desert, Cream.
Cream: But it's ice cream cake.
Shadow: *ears twitch*
Cream: And it'll melt. Plus, both Mister Shadow and Miss Rei have been looking at it a couple times.
Amy: ??? *looks at both of them*
Shadow: Cream is just seeing things. But she's right about the ice cream cake melting. And about starting with it first. Don't you agree Cream?
Cream: Yup!

Rei: Yeah, it'll melt if we don't start with it soon. I'd hate a chocolate mess on our hands.

Amy: Okay, okay. Sonic!
Sonic: *comes back with several chili dogs on his plate, and one in his mouth* Meah?
Amy: We're eating the cake first.
Sonic: *swallows chili dog* Great! I'll get the candles!
*takes off somewhere, and comes back and plants the candles on the cake*
Shadow: ...
Sonic: What?
Shadow: 18...
Sonic: Yeah. What about it?
Shadow: Slash 68!?
Sonic: Well, see, 18 is my age, and 68 is yours.
Shadow: *eyes flash dangerously* Change it.
Sonic: But we only have these two candles. Unless you want to share one.
Shadow: What would be the problem with that?!
Sonic: The blowing proccess.
Shadow: *hits Sonic on the head and chucks the 68 candle out the window*
Sonic: Ow! No hitting the birthday boy!
Shadow: *glares*
Sonic: Alright, alright. Jeeze...
Amy: Well, if you two are done arguing, *lites the candle* Happy birth-
Shadow: No way. Absolutely not!
Sonic: Oh come ON Shadow! You already messed up the candle proccess! Let them at least sing the happy birthday song!
Shadow: *puts head down* Can't we just blow out the candle, and eat the damn cake already?
Sonic: No.
Shadow:

Rei: *rolls eyes in annoyence* The sooner we finish the song, the sooner we cut into the cake.

Cream: So will you be joining us in the song, Miss Rei? *innocent smile*

Rei: Um.... *Eyes dart quickly to the side trying to think of an excuss not to.*

Cream: If you'd prefer not to sing, you don't have to force yourself Miss Rei.
Sonic: I'm sure it would save Shadow some embarrasment.
Shadow: *head down*
Sonic: So I'll just blow out the candle Shadz?
Shadow: *hits Sonic*
Sonic: Ow. I'll take that as a yes.

Rei: *nods*

Amy: Okay! Happy happy birthday~
Shadow: Oh sweet chaos, why this one!?
Cream: Happy birthday to you!
Tails: I wish it was our birthdays~
Amy, Cream, and Tails: So we could party too! Yeah!
Shadow: That was rather short. Well, at least we can eat the cake now.
Non celebrants: Happy birthday to you!
Shadow: *bangs head on table* I hate you too Chaos.
Sonic: *elbows Shadow* Cha cha cha!
Shadow: *glares*
Amy, Cream, Tails: Happy birthday, to you!
Sonic: Cha cha cha!
Shadow: I will kill you hedgehog.
Everyone: Happy birthday, dear Sonic and Shadow!!!
Sonic: An sixty eight happy birthday to you Shadow, a cha cha cha!
Shadow:
Everyone: Happy birthday, to you!
Sonic: Cha cha cha! *blows out the candle, and slams Shadow's face into a portion of the cake*
Shadow: ...
Amy and Tails:
Cream: Ah! The cake! Mister Sonic!
Sonic: Oh don't worry! It was only a portion.

Rei: *eyes widened when Shadow's head hit the cake.* Eh....

Shadow: *lifts head out of cake*
Sonic: *uses finger to take off part of the cake that stuck to Shadow and tastes it* Yeah, that's some good cake!
Shadow: *wipes cake off and seems like he's going to throw his portion*
Sonic: Yikes! *grabs plate as defense*
Shadow: *lowers hand and takes plate from Sonic and puts the cake on the plate* I can't waste this good of a cake... Cut the cake already Amy.
Sonic: You better do it Amy. The Ultimate Party Pooper Life Form demands it.
Shadow: It's going to a good cause. *smooshes cake onto Sonic's face*
Everyone: ...
Sonic: ...*gets up, dashes off, and returns with water balloons* Prepare to be wet Faker! *chucks water balloons at Shadow*
Amy: Ah! Wait Sonic! *accidently gets in the path of the water baloon and gets soaked*
Sonic: Oops.
Amy: ...*picks up a water balloon that wasn't popped and chucks it at Sonic*
Sonic: Uh oh... *gets hit* ...You asked for it Ames! *chases her around with water balloon*
Amy: Ah! *runs around*

Tails: *laughs* I guess it's more cake for us, huh Shadow?
Shadow: *already has a large piece and eating it somewhat in a civilized manner*

Rei: *Is already eating a fairly large piece of cake herself*

Tails: I guess we should get some too, huh Cream?
Cream: *getting a piece for herself* What was that Tails?
Tails: ^^' Everyone's beating me to the punch *gets some as well*

Rei: *Finishes what's on my plate.* It's pretty good.
