Name: Maria The Hedgehog.
((Appearance: At one week old, Maria is a remarkably tiny and precious hoglet cub. She comfortably fits in the palm of an adult's hand, barely reaching their chest when held close. Her body is only about 6 inches long, making her appear incredibly delicate. Her fur is a deep ebony, mirroring Shadow's, accented with vibrant crimson stripes that hint at her lineage. Her eyes, a striking ruby red, are often wide with curiosity or sleepiness, reflecting her father's intense gaze. Her nose is a tiny, pink button that twitches adorably when she's feeding or dreaming, a trait inherited from Sonic.))
((Personality: Maria is a sweet, gentle, and incredibly sensitive newborn. Being so young, her personality is still developing, but she primarily communicates through soft coos, gentle whimpers, and expressive facial expressions. She's incredibly attuned to the emotions of those around her, often mirroring their moods with her own. Maria craves warmth, comfort, and security, and she's happiest when nestled in a soft blanket or held close to someone's heart. She's easily startled by loud noises or sudden movements, seeking comfort in familiar scents and gentle touches. Despite her young age, she seems to possess an innate sense of trust and affection, readily offering gummy smiles to those who care for her.))

Shadow The Hedgehog and Silver The Hedgehog arrived home from outside. They entered the house tiredly and put the grocery bags on the table. They looked around the house. It was quiet. They wondered where they are. Because usually Shadow and Sonic's 1 week old daughter Maria The Hedgehog and Sonic The Hedgehog always comes to welcome them, let alone his husband.
“Maybe they are in the room.“ the ultimate lifeform whispered to himself. He went to his room. No one was there. He changed his clothes tiredly. And then he came out of his room and Silver went to Sonic's room. He opened the door slowly, which made a small squeak. To his disbelief, both of them were sleeping there on Maria's bed. Shadow's husband, Sonic The Hedgehog, and Maria.
Sonic and Maria were asleep, and that wasn't something they saw every day. Because they both always had infinite energy and speed and they could hardly cope with this energy, but they were dear to them.
A Small smile formed on Shadow's lips and he took a closer looked at them while Silver were leaning on the hinge of the door. And Sonic seemed to be waking up.
“Love.... Is that you....?“ He said between big yawn, It seemed that this time he was tired of spending time with his little son who was a complete copy of him. From where he can hardly find a difference between them.
