(Reader's P.O.V.)

I finally got better but my heart didn't. My symptoms seem to worsen whenever he's around. I'm already aware that I'm in love with him. I figured that out the hard way. The problem is trying to convey that feeling. I don't know how to. "Master (V/N)? Master Sonic asked me to check up on you." Pixie, the only remaining robot of my old army and servant to Sonic, enters the room. She applies a cold metallic hand to my forehead to check my temperature. "It seems you are no longer overheating. I will tell master Sonic the good news." I stop Pixie before she leaves. "Laptop... I need a laptop..." My voice comes out a bit hoarse but she understands perfectly. It's because the two of us are connected through my technopathy. Even if words fail me, she'll still understand. She exits the room, leaving me to my thoughts. The things I don't want to think about, like being in love. She finally returns with a laptop and I can finally do what needs to be done. I use a flash drive and access the program. Time to wake the bots. I initiate the wake sequence and begin giving them orders to make me a new base in Mystic Ruin, somewhere in the jungle. Once my new base is complete I will begin my newest scheme. For now, I'll just wait and let the bots do their job. (V/N)'s hiatus is over.

I decided to check on her myself after Pixie told me she no longer had a fever. A cute evil laugh is heard coming out of my room. She's probably scheming something. She's been here for a few weeks. I almost forgot she was still a villain. I guess I thought I could make her change. You can't change someone who doesn't want to change. It doesn't matter. I'll still love her regardless of which side she's on. I just hope we don't have to fight again. If that were to happen... I'd be torn.

*One week later*

(Reader's P.O.V.)

My bots are fast workers. Only a week and my new base is operational. It's still incomplete but it's better than living under the same roof as a twin-tailed mutant fox who hates you entirely. At least now I can sleep in my own bed and begin research for my latest scheme. I head to my computer and boot up the search engine. In the search bar I type, "How to date". Yes, this is my latest evil scheme, OPERATION: "DATE". My plan is rather simple. After doing lots of research on the internet, I've decided I'm going to kidnap Sonic... again. This time is different because I'm going to take him on a 'date'. I'm going to spruce up my new base, make things nice and pretty, and then confess my infernal affections! To make sure things run smoothly and so I don't have to worry about Sonic's nuisance friends, I'm building some bots specialized to fight against them. Using the Gizoid program, I've created elite fighters that copy their opponents' attacks. That should keep them busy for the duration of the 'date'. Now to figure out how to capture Sonic. The element of surprise is most important.

(Tail's P.O.V.)

I'm glad she's gone. Not to be mean or anything but there's something off about her. I know she's a villain and I know Sonic likes her but something just doesn't sit right with me. For a villain, her behavior is a bit strange. And it's not just that. I found out that she was part of a secret program G.U.N. created, the ESPer project. They were gathering humans with extrasensory powers and training them as agents. Apparently, (Y/N) or (V/N)'s parents left her with G.U.N. and she escaped. Then she committed her first act of villainy, destroying the ESPer project headquarters. No one was hurt but all ESPer data was lost and the ESPers that volunteered for the project were sent home. That's why G.U.N. has a file on her. With what data they recovered, they created a special file to make sure anyone who encountered her knew what they were dealing with. "Shadow, thank you for bringing me the file. I know it was a lot to ask." "Do you know where she is?" Shadow crosses his arms with a serious expression. I know exactly where she is but I'd never betray Sonic like that. "No idea. She just vanished." Don't worry Sonic, I may not like (Y/N) but I'd never let personal feelings get in the way of you being happy. That's what bros are for.
