Summary: Humanity was not only jealous of his power, they feared it. So much that they wished to terminate the Ultimate Life Form…what they got was a mutation, far worse than ever imagined.
Skippy's Words: I think I may be playing a tad too much Sonic. I just got done playing a few hours of Sonic Unleashed, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Sonic and the Black Knight, Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle…and my friend just bought me the Olympic Games with Mario and Sonic and my ma just bought me the Winter Olympic Games! I am having so much fun! Even with little to no sleep! Yay for my Sonic induced coma!
Added Words/Warning: The very beginning takes place in the game Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 so it could be a little confusing to those who have never played the game, but I don't think you necessarily need the game seeing as how I…don't have it at the moment anyway but have Shadow's story on my computer thanks to my friend who is a total fangirl of yaoi-I am a fangirl of couples who belong in my mind-yaoi often being the result.
Disclaimer: Me no own. Sonic Team does. And I ain't on that team…reality sucks…that's why it's called reality.
Prologue
Too much. There is too much, yet nothing goes on. Time is useless to me. Nothing is happening, for I am the Ultimate Life Form; I cannot die like the many mortals I use to befriend. I am forlorn in my prison, perhaps forever no matter how much my desire for it to end grows. So long as time ticks by, I am to remain alive and well…cursed in such a way. Anyone who is affected by death is afraid of it, where as in myself, I am afraid of living. Everyone I knew is gone as of now, except for one who unlike me, thrives in being immortal. It is a pattern I cannot break. Even if Maria had not been shot down by G.U.N. I would have been forced to stay by her side until she left me. Perhaps it was best that way. The way things went. Or else I would have suffered more.
Like I was forced to with my only love, Sonic.
I remember him so clearly, even after over two hundred years of his death. I knew I should have just left him. Knew I should have walked away with my pride and dignity. My sanity and heart. I also should have know that he would have ruined me. I over looked everything he had done to me in the past. Not that I can even blame him. He doesn't even know he tortures me so much. He has no clue of the possibility. I believe he knew it when he was alive. He knew, I knew, and everyone around us knew. They all knew that one day, they would all pass away, and I could do no such thing.
I watched as my friends were called away from this world one by one. I treasure every moment, every memory of such times. Even the time I shared with the one I loved so dearly. It never bothered him in the slightest bit that as the years waved past, he aged while I did not. We had our fair share of odd looks from those around us, those who did not know us. As I said, none of that mattered to my blue love.
If only I had stayed away. Before and after his passing.
I only loved once. I have no desire to go through that pain again. I am alone, and I will be forever alone so long as these cuffs bind me down. And so far, I see no end.
There is no hope.
And I'm beginning to believe that there never was for me.
This is partly Sonic's fault, for if he never died, none of what happened would have existed.
However, he could not help it.
I could not stop it.
So my destiny could not be changed.
And I am forever doomed.
And I can tell by two simple facts.
Two simple facts that grind at my sanity-one that was just brought to my attention just moments ago by a soft blue glow. An all too familiar glow I had triggered centuries ago.
One-I cannot talk. So I cannot warn myself to stay away. I am currently bound down by this force field with the power to hold me down. G.U.N. had created some containment unit to hold me down, fusing the Master Emerald with dark energy to counteract my own chaos energy to the point to immobilize me. Rendering my body entirely useless. All I can do is remain still as I look at my surroundings through a purple fused pink aura that Mephiles seems to be able to control. I never managed to figure out how he got a hold of my prison.
Two-I wish for nothing more than to tell myself to stay away. To warn myself to not be so foolish and do something like try to change my fate. That can never happen at this rate. It has happened before. In order to stop myself from become imprisoned, I must warn my past self to stay away from Sonic. That he is why I am here. Why I have been captured.
But then my life with Sonic could no longer be…then…
…I could never…
It does not matter.
I see myself…only…I am just so tired of living as it is…I have no energy…
I know why as well…I am being drained. They had insisted on killing me though with fail. Only now they-and myself-are forced to live like this. My only hope is that my past self will see this, and change it, like I had failed. However, if this had already happened, it was happen again for that is how fate works.
If only he knew that which I cannot do.
Knew what must be done.
