Character(s): Shadow and Maria Robotnik

Location: Out in town eventually!

Rating: PG?

Open/Closed/Finished: Closed

Summary: Shadow had promised to show Maria the town once she got better.

Shadow sat beneath a tree near the girls dormitory, arms crossed behind his head as he waited for Maria to show up. Her health had gotten a lot better in comparison to when she first arrived, which was a relief to him. It seemed like the medicine in this world worked a lot better than their own.

His eyes were closed, focusing his other senses to detect movement around him. It was so much easier to hear the soft rustle of leaves or the chatter of passing cadets and SeeDs like this. His features twitched as he heard light footsteps approach him, knowing who they belonged to.
