Here I am again. Finally decided to write another story after my other got deleted a few years back. So I'm trying my hand at another story. I'm going to do my best to continue this story. Reviews and critisism are welcomed. Please no flames. Also, I'm depicting the characters as humans. So please no reviews that say something complaining that they need to be what they are.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Sonic the hedgehog series. The only thing I own is parts of the story plot and the character "Nightshade".

----------

A boy lay asleep with no blanket to keep him warm. Not that he needed it. His chest slowly rising and falling as he breathed silently. He had various and notable features as he slept. Black hair with natural gray highlights covered his eyes, though it seemed to style on it's own as it spiked backwards, seeming to curve at the edges. The hair went around his ears, to reveal his pointed ears. He wore a plain dark gray shirt as he slept, with black jeans to go with it.

On the floor by where he slept, a pair of peculiar shoes lay, with a dark gray interface with it's notable features black. Beside it, a black longcoat hang on a doorknob.

The boy stirred lightly, his facial features remaining the same as it had: of an innocent boy dreaming. His facial expression had no strain from anger or sadness. His face seemed unreadable.

A seemingly sinister voice echoed through the room from an intercom beside the boy.

"Wake up, Nightshade, and report to the main chamber." The voice of Dr. Ivo Robotnik rang in the boy's ears.

The boy named "Nightshade" opened his eyes. His opening eyelids revealed eyes with a black iris, with ominous white pupils.

"Yes." Nightshade said. He then sat upright, his eyes unaffected by the morning sun. He slipped on his shoes and properly put his longcoat on. He headed towards the main chambers of the vast laboratory.

He arrived within the minute. He soon saw his creator. "Robotnik." Nightshade said.

A man seemingly in his late thirties turned to Nightshade. He had a long, red mustache and his eyes were covered with goggles. He had another set of thicker, darker goggles atop his bald head. His nose it's usual tinge of red. He wore a strange red lab coat that had large, yellow circles as a design, with his gut visible. He wore black boots with silver fasts and black pants. He smiled with a sinister laugh upon seeing Nightshade. "I have found another Super Emerald for you to retrieve." The doctor proceeded to motion to the screen that normally showed his plans. It showed coordinates along with a picture of a large red emerald. Nightshade nodded.

Robotnik then went to a holding case and opened it. Inside, lay a seven emeralds, though noticeably smaller than the emerald shown on the screen. He picked up a red emerald and handed it to the boy. The boy accepted it, and held it in his hand. He closed his eyes as he muttered under his breath.

"Chaos Control."

In an instant, the boy vanished in a red light. The doctor watched the screen as the boy appeared near the emerald on the screen. Robotnik watched as Nightshade reached for the large red emerald.

As soon as Nightshade made contact with the emerald, red flames emerged from the emerald. Nightshade's hand that was now holding the emerald was being burned, though his young face showed no pain. The flames of the emerald intensified as seconds passed. Soon, the emerald ceased to repel Nightshade. His burned hand soon healed in a matter of seconds, with no trace of any previous injury.

"Hey!" A voice yelled.

Nightshade turned to see a man in purple wearing a brown top hat, with a black belt that had an empty gun holster. He aimed his gun at Nightshade. He smirked, revealing his large canine tooth.

"I'd drop that if I were you." The man smirked.

Nightshade said nothing. He just looked at the man. After observing, Nightshade pulled out a gun from his longcoat. The man blinked.

"H-hey! I don't think that we need to bring weapons into this…" The man said nervously.

Nightshade said nothing as he readied the gun. He pointed it at the man.

"Hey! Wait!" The man panicked. It was his personal policy that he didn't kill kids.

Nightshade said nothing as he pulled the trigger.

A loud bang was heard throughout the area, and the man fell, red blood emerging from his chest. He screamed in pain.

Nightshade said nothing and his face didn't change as he was engulfed in a red light again, and appeared back at Robotnik's lab.

The doctor grinned as he took both emeralds from Nightshade. "Good work. Return to your cell. I'll call again when I find another Super Emerald." Robotnik told Nightshade.

The boy looked at Robotnik for a second, and walked back to the room where he had been previously sleeping. He walked over to the window. He looked at the area. It was barren, with little life. He was in a high, protected room. He could easily see for many miles, though saw no other life than the near-dead plants and critters. He had been confined in this room for most of his life, going out whenever The doctor needed him. He blinked as he saw a cloud of dust, with a cobalt blue streak leading it.
