1:35 A.M.: somewhere over earth's orbit

Sonic the hedgehog was flying toward earth, clutching 3 chaos emeralds in one hand and 4 in the other, and giving off a strong yellow aura. Tails had offered him a ride back from the space colony A.R.K. in the tornado, but sonic thought he would rather fly back alone. With all 7 chaos emeralds, he could stay in his super form for as long as he wanted. No matter how much he tried, sonic could not shake the thought of Shadow from his head. Not two hours ago shadow had been Sonic's arch-nemesis. So why should he even regret Shadow's death, he told himself. Well let's see, he did sacrifice himself to save the world, he thought aloud. He remembered how when he had returned to the space colony A.R.K. they had all had a moment of silence for Shadow, even Eggman. Sonic then noticed how clearer the stars looked from outer space. He wondered if by some freak chance, Shadow could still be alive out there somewhere in the huge cosmos. "Ahh stop it damnit, you're getting way to emotional", Sonic told himself. And with that, he burst off toward the green surface of the earth at near-light speed.

Unknown time: Somewhere in the universe

On the surface of a strange planet, in an unknown region of the universe, a burnt and charred black figure opens one blood red eye. "Where am I, what am I doing here, WHO AM I!!" he asks himself. Then suddenly a name, some vague memory of a name at the tip of his memories comes to him. "Shadow", he says softly. Then another memory, him falling, falling looking back at a strange space station, and him grabbing something, a jewel of some kind. He looked at his palm, he was still clutching this jewel. Chaos emerald, his mind tells him, but no, a chaos emerald looks different from this, his
mind also tells him. This jewel had a fantastic look inside of it, it seemed to be made of all of the different colors at once, almost as though
you could picture anything inside of it. Shadow finally takes a look around him, he is laying on the steps of some giant temple, surrounded by a
lush forest. "Where the hell am I", Shadow mutters. "Well no time to
waste, better find out" he says as he gets up. Shadow then discovers
something else about himself: he can run. Fast. He streaks through the
jungle, causing trees to blow over as though a hurricane had passed
through. Animals dodge to get out of his path as he speeds by. Shadow then thinks "Something tells me this place is familiar", and speeds off in
a black blur.

Where is Shadow? What is the strange jewel he now possesses? What will Sonic do now that he saved the world again? Well anyway that's the end of the first chapter. Don't worry it will get more actiony slash adventury. I'll try to have the next part posted very soon.
