While They were babysitting for her, Maria started being fussy because They wouldn’t give her another snack and started whining for her Fathers: Sonic and Shadow.... little did they both know they were standing outside the room door.

“I want my daddy and Papa!!” She whined, reaching out towards her Father.

“Looks like someone missed you're Presence!“ She Said Teasingly, Glancing at Sonic and Shadow for their Reaction.
