Year: Mobius- 3056
January 2 6:36pm
Shadow stood in a middle of a hallway, waiting for something he didn't know yet. Why? He didn't remember. After all, everything he could remember was his name and the fact that he worked for N.O.V.A. Gerald created him, but Gerald worked for N.O.V.A. It was so sad. And now he stood there, in a middle of an empty hallway. Boring. He was interrupted by a soft voice behind him- "Excuse me, Mr. Shadow, but its time for your examination". So, that was the reason he stood there. He turned around to see a blue fox, is a lab coat. The fox had blue eyes, and three tails. "Fine, let's go then", Shadow replied in a low voice. The fox nodded and started moving down the hallway. Shadow followed. The fox stopped in front of a door. He reached inside his pocket and pulled out a keycard, swiped it, and entered the door. Shadow followed him inside. There was a small bed with only a mattress, and a bunch of machines he didn't know about. "So, let begi….." he couldn't finish the sentence, because somewhere in the building an alarm sounded. The fox instantly run out the door, only to be killed by a piece of glass that flew through the air. Shadow got up and run out side the door only to see…. Light. But wait…. At the end of the light was a figure of a hedgehog. "Omega…."- Shadow whispered. The next second he was thrown by a force so powerful, he hit the wall. He was lifted again and thrown, this time at the Transport Machine Ring (TMR). The machine hummed softly and suddenly he realized that he turned it on. And suddenly he was sucked into the portal. He never saw Omega destroy the space station, and teleport to Mobius. He saw nothing.
Authors Note: Omega a.k.a Project O.M.E.G.A- A hedgehog with power so great he could destroy planets. Looks like Shadow, except he has indigo fur and yellow stripes.
N.O.V.A – An intergalactic evil organization. More explained throughout the story.

June 3 10:59pm
Across the night sky, a star was falling down. Except it never was a star. It was hedgehog, surrounded by golden glow. It was Shadow. He crashed through the woods, braking branches and destroying trees. When he reached the ground, he crashed through it, causing a small crater to appear.
Butler's eyes snapped open, as he heard an extremely loud crash that shattered a window. He got up and run downstairs, only to see Artemis staring outside, at the woods. "Artemis, you ok?"- He asked. "Yeah. I'm fine"- Artemis replied, - "But something isn't right about that crashed object. Shall we check it out?" "Hmmm maybe we should…"- Butler replied in a low voice. "Well, what are you waiting for?"- Artemis said, as he stepped out of the front door. Butler followed.
Shadow's eyes snapped open. He was in the woods; but where? Not on Mobius, that's for sure. He tried to get up, but found out he couldn't. Suddenly he heard something. One… No, two voices close to him. "I hope they find me". That was the last thought he had before falling unconscious.
Artemis moved his flashlight forward. There! The hole in the tree tops. And below it… A crater. He slowly moved next to it, and looked down. Inside lay something he never saw before: A humanoid hedgehog, all black with red stripes lay in there. And he was alive.
(Sorry for the short chapter. Chapter two will be longer.)
