It was late afternoon in the forests of Soleanna. Amy strolled from where she was writing and met Shadow at their current training grounds. When she arrived, she wondered why he sounded so urgent. "What's up, Shadow?" she asked. He answered, "I must admit, Amy, you've come a long way since you first started. So, I believe it's time to show all that you have learned." Amy looked puzzled at first, until it hit her. "You mean...?" Shadow nodded. "Yes. A no-holds-barred duel. I shall attack you with full force, using all my power." This statement drew an unbelievably happy response from her. 'Yes, finally!' Shadow continued, "Since I will be using full strength, you will be expected to put all your training to the test if you want to, at the very least, survive."
"Ok," Amy said, literally shaking with excitement. "Can...can I attack now? Please?" Shadow looked at Amy strangely. "What's your problem?" he asked. "N-Nothing!" she replied. "I'm eager to get started!" Shadow still looked a bit concerned, but he put it aside. "Hm. Very well, then, let's go. Come, Amy!"
'Not without you, Shadow...' Amy thought perversely.

Shadow began by warping behind Amy and tripping her. Before she could fall, she was knocked back with his Chaos Magic technique. Amy bounced and was back on her feet. Shadow warped behind her again, but this time, she twirled around with a kick, anticipating at attack. When Shadow blocked her kick, he snapped his fingers and BAM! Chaos Magic was used once more, and Amy was sent flying, losing quite a bit of Rings as a result. But, she landed on her feet once more and dashed toward him like a girl on a mission. She could hardly believe this has happening! Her, Amy Rose, facing the Ultimate Lifeform at full power, throwing everything she had at him. This is was what she had been waiting months for, the rush of battle, the surge of adrenaline...as far as she knew, this was what being a woman felt like, and she didn't want it to end.
The battle went on with both combatants giving their all. Amy had suffered multiple wounds and more than a few cuts. She felt none of it, however and just kept charging at Shadow until finally...A HIT! Amy leapt and struck Shadow with a sudden axe kick to his right shoulder. The hedgehog leapt back and was surprised by the sudden sensation, and that it cost him nine Rings. 'What the hell?' he thought, 'That actually hurt??' The fact that Amy actually got a decent shot in was enough for Shadow to confirm that Amy was indeed benefiting from the training. Regaining his composure, Shadow said to her, "Well done, Amy. You've certainly gotten stronger."
Amy heard him, but at the same time, she didn't. Her mind was focused on one thing: She hadn't peaked. Her limit was not yet reached. She was not...yet...satisfied. "More, Shadow."
"Huh?" Amy elaborated, "I...I want to fight more. You're stronger than this. Fight me..."
Shadow looked at her with a confused expression. "Amy?" The girl looked back with a glazed look in her eyes, determined to be satisfied. "Fight me, Shadow!" She then rushed him, attacking fiercely while somehow retaining the grace and skill she had learned thus far. Not knowing what to make of this turn of events, Shadow defended himself while watching her. "More...more...keep going!" she kept repeating. It then dawned on him that Amy was taking a great amount of pleasure from this fight! He didn't understand why, but his impatience would not allow him to figure it out, so he decided to end this. He grabbed her by the shoulders and kneed her in the stomach. He then threw her into the air and nailed her in the back with a powerful Chaos Spear!
Amy screamed in pain - At least, Shadow thought that was pain - and her remaining Rings exploded from her as she fell to the ground, exhausted. Shadow tentatively walked up to her. He knelt down and saw that she had a blissful, content smile, despite her injuries. "Well?" she asked. "How did I do?" Shadow answered, "You...did very well, Amy. I haven't been pushed that far in a while." Miss Rose smiled wider and said, "Thank you. You've made me...so happy, Shadow..." She then wearily reached up and kissed him on his cheek.
Shadow quickly backed away at this staring at her with shock for what must have been the eighth time that day. Before he could demand an explanation, however, Amy fell asleep, smiling all the while. Shadow was truly confused. No one had ever dared to do something like that to him. Ever. So many emotions tumbled inside him.
He eventually chose the one he was most familiar with: anger. "Damn it, Rose," he muttered with a glare. "What the hell has gotten into you?"
