Wereshadmaria Chapter 1


one day, there was a blonde haired hedgehog. Her name is Maria, she didn't have a mother or a father. They both died in a car crash when she was only 2. She promised her parents that she would get a pet to help find her uncle. So Maria ran in the pet store to get a pet. She walked in she saw a man behind the desk.

" hello little girl! May I help you? " the man asked.

Maria walked up to the desk.

" Yes, um may I pick a pet to choose? " Maria asked.

" Yes, but you will have to pay after you pick. Choose wisely! " the man said.

Maria walked into the room and saw dogs and cats of many kinds. She looked and looked. After a couple mins. Maria found a black and red werehog. She saw the big werehog.

" Hello... My name is Maria. " she said.

The werehog turned back to see her. He had red glowing eyes, then he growled. Maria yelled for the man. The man came and saw Maria by the big werehog. He was scared.

" Y- yes little girl. " the man shivered in fear.

Maria pointed at the werehog and smiled at the man.

" I would like this one please! " Maria said.

" A-are y-you sure? " the man said. Maria nodded. The man walked out to get the key. Maria looked at the werehog.

" We will be great friends! I know it! " Maria said with a smile.

The werehog went to a mean face to a warming smile. Then he purred as Maria reached her hand to the side of his muzzle. The werehog rubbed his face on her hand. The man came back with big keys. One was as big as his feet. Maria was surprised! She never seen a key that big before. The only key she saw was as big as a pinkie.

" Wow! Thats a big key! " Maria said.

" This key is the oldest and the biggest key used in this pet store! Cool right? " the man asked.

" Yeah! " she responded as the man was unlocking the cage.

The door opened after he unlocked the cage. The man took a big chain and put it around his neck so he could not run off. Maria was confused why he did that. But, she knew he was a professional with animals. The man gave Maria the chain. And got out his papers. The man looked around Maria like he was looking for someone. Maria looked back to see what he was looking at. She didn't see nobody.

" Uhh. Where is your parents? " he asked.

Maria looked down and started to tear. The werehog noticed Maria was crying. The werehog licked her on the cheek. Trying to make her feel better. The man looked worried as Maria fell to her knees in tears.

" What's wrong little girl? Is something wrong? " the man asked.

" My mother and father is gone. They went to heaven! I promised them I would get a pet to help me find my uncle! Can I have to get a neighbor to sign it? " Maria cried.

" Uh, yes sure. " the man said.

Maria was still on her knees trying to dry her tears. The werehog looked at Maria as the man was looking for the neighbors. Maria didn't want to talk about her parents. She was afraid that the man would probably ask for them. The werehog was worried. He looked at her in worry. He made a sound to get Maria's attention. Maria looked at the werehog with dry tears.

" Oh, it's ok... (sniff) That reminds me. I probably need to get you a name. " Maria said.

she sat at the closes chair and thought. There was so many names. The werehog already knew what he wanted to be called. He gave her some hints on what his name wanted to be. He started giving her hints. First he started jumping on his shadow. Maria looked.

" Do you need to go to the bathroom? " Maria asked.

He nodded his head left to right as he was trying to say no. he got a flash light and put his paw in front of it as it made a shadow. He pointed at the shadow with his other paw.

" Bark! " he said To get her attention again. Maria looked at what he was pointing at. She lifted her ears as she realized he was giving hints to find his name.

" Shadow? " She asked.

He barked and nodded up and down as he was saying yes. He started to jump up and down in excitement!

" Shadow! That's going to be your name! Shadow! " she said in excitement!

The man came back with a signed paper With the name, Ted Shedstone.

" Alright, all we have to do is name this werehog. Do you have a name? " the man asked getting a pen getting ready to write.

" Yes, his name is Shadow. " Maria said looking at Shadow With a smile.

" Alright! Here you go, do you have the money? " the man said

" Oh Yeah! How much was he again? " Maria asked.

" $80. " he said. Maria pulled out her money. Her old parents money. She had $5,000 in total. She pulled out a $100 dollar bill. The man put the $100 in the cash register. Then he took out $20.

" There you go little girl. Have a nice day! " he said.

" You too thanks! " Maria said taking Shadow.


later


Maria and Shadow arrived to one little box and one big box.

" Well, boy. Here is where we are staying for the night. " Maria looked down with a sigh.

Shadow looked at her confused.

" I have been staying in here for almost a full week. " Maria said.

Shadow looked at the little box as Maria was crawling into it.

" This one is mine and that one is yours. " she said pointing at the big box. Shadow was worried about Maria being alone in her little box. Shadow picked Maria up with his mouth. Shadow then put Maria on his back.

" Hey! Shadow! What are you doing?! Shadow! " Maria yelled as Shadow carried her into the big box with him.

Shadow laid down after he entered into the box.

" Oh! ( giggled quietly ) You don't want me alone in that little box. Don't you? " Maria said with a smile.

Shadow nodded with his eyes still closed.

" Aw! You are so sweet! " Maria said hugging him.

Shadow purred in pleasure. He was happy. He would rather be with her anywhere than a dark and scary cage without her. When he was in his cage people would walk up to him and then run away quickly. He wanted to hate and dispose of all people on mobius. But, when Maria came, everything changed! Shadow felt amazing for once. He actualy felt like he was part of this world. He smiled as he was falling asleep.

" Good night Shadow! " Maria said in a sleepy tone.

Shadow purred again as he was imagining him talking in her language saying the phrase.

( I Love You.. )
