Broken Promises:
Note: This is my first attempt at a Shadow drabble. I am well aware that my writing outside of RP is not the best. So feel free to give constructive criticism about what I have written. I need to better my writing. So yeah. Let's go for this I guess.
Concrete continued to crumble and fall as Shadow made his way through the streets of the ruined city. His own heart mimicked the disrepair and destruction, for his promise to Maria was broken. That promise that he made to her was that he would protect everyone on Earth. Those were her last words to him before G.U.N. shot her as she sent Shadow to earth in a pod.
Even though he didn't cause the destruction himself to this city, he still felt like he destroyed the city. He felt like he was no better than the disgusting humans that committed the destruction of the city by not protecting it.
Eventually he saw Sonic up in the distance. Anxiety filled his mind and body all of a sudden. Shadow did not always get along the best with the blue blur. Every time Shadow was in a ruined area, he always feared that Sonic would assume that he was a part of all of the destruction. His body started to tremble to reflect his anxious thoughts in his head. 'Damn. I better get out of here before he finds me here and accuses me of participating in the city's destruction,' he thought to himself.
He noticed a Chaos Emerald nearby. Seeing the Chaos Emerald nearby made him sigh out of relief and calmed him down a bit. If he was fast and quiet enough, he could hopefully get out of here before Sonic noticed him here. He walked over to it and picked it up. 'I got to get out of here and fast. Before Sonic notices my presence here,' he thought to himself. "Chaos Control..." he whispered. The power of Chaos Control then transported Shadow to Space Colony ARK.
When he got to Space Colony ARK, he felt a rush of relief go through his body. He was far away from the ruined city now. His relief feeling mimicked the peaceful atmosphere of the Space Colony ARK. He then walked over to the window to look down onto Earth. 'I'll go back down there eventually. But for now, I need some time alone up here. To forgive myself for breaking my promise to Maria...' he thought to himself.
