Alrighty, I finally can post this(got Microsoft word again^.^). Enjoy.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Sonic crew, nor do I intend to, but I do own Kayli. (A/N: Beginning is a lil' bit of a cliché, but I just couldn't find a way around it!)
Finding A Way: PROLOGUE
Shadow was falling through space; soon he would enter the Earth's atmosphere. He had just saved the world and succeeded in giving his only promise to Maria. But, the best part was he may soon be with her once again. Soon.
He smiled. It was so many years ago that he had enjoyed life, now he hoped to enjoy afterlife. Maria had told him about Heaven once. She said it was a place for good people after they died. She was there, he knew it. But was he going there too? He was. At least he thought so. Saving the world was a good thing, and he was only hours away from seeing Maria again.
It was such a long way down, it may take a while before he burns. He had wished the moment was now. Now because there was only one thing he could do.
He could think.
He didn't want to think. It would only hurt him more, but he couldn't resist. So, losing a fight with himself, Shadow the Hedgehog thought. What did he think about? Sonic. Not just Sonic though, all the others. And he was right, it hurt.
What if he could have befriended them? It would have been nice. They were going to accept him. Sonic seemed like a nice person, well, in the few moments they had gotten along. And he never found love, something he was hoping to do. Shadow started to regret this. This was practically suicide. He tumbled towards the Earth after the defeat of the Biolizard on purpose.
And what about what Rouge said? Were his memories fake? What if he never knew Maria? All this seemed to go through his mind at once. He Purposely passed up a chance to join up with new friends, and he was regretting it. The only reason it pained him so much, was because there was nothing he could do about it. He was going to die no matter what. He forced open his eyes to see how close he was to the Earth. Still a couple hours left until he hit it. But he didn't want to hit it, he wanted to burn. He didn't know why, but that was his choice of death.
Why wasn't he burning up? He didn't even feel any heat, except he could feel his shoes starting to warp. He was approaching the ocean fast now. /No. Not the water./ he thought. Like Sonic, he couldn't swim and it was one of the only things he feared. He didn't want to drown to death, but only a miracle could save him now.
So, Shadow did the only thing he could do. He closed his eyes and waited for impact.
