The 3 Shadows, Final Episode - Ultimate Life
By Master hunter
It may seem odd to do the final episode so soon. Usually what happens with me is that I think of a start and an end and make up the middle as I go. I have some ideas on what the other episodes will be but I think it's important to do this first. It's through this you can see how my own 3 Shadows world merges with the normal SegaSonic world from the games. I originally wrote both this and the first episode as one so if you read my original version or are rather observant you may have already guessed the twist in this one.
This is a partial rewrite of one of my earlier fics, Sonic of the past: the shadow chronicles (as always you can find my fics at )
Since this is the final episode it will include new things that will be explained in earlier episodes that I will do later (i.e. explained in episode 5 or later).

The 3 Shadows, Final Episode - Ultimate Life
Chapter 1 - The Beginning of the End.
The 3 Shadows have been through a lot during their time together. Over the last 5 years many things have happened. The Deadly Gems challenged Joz, Miles got a second tail and Shadow, once created as a weapon, has become a world-renowned hero. However everything must end and this is the story of how the 3 Shadows ended.
We start in Joz's mansion in Miles' lab. He's not 17 years old, still with his second tail, still with his trademark Wrist Shooters. He working on a giant white biplane armed with loads of guns and labelled "Tornado F". Joz walks through the door to check on his progress. He's now 30, but he had learned a lot about himself and his trademark sword, The Annemuir.
"What ya working on Miles?" asked Joz.
"This is it Joz. The final version of my beloved plane, The Tornado F", said Miles.
"I suppose F stands for Final?" asked Joz.
"Yep. Even if this gets destroyed I'm not redesigning it. I'll repair or rebuild but this will be the final model created by me", said Miles.
"Cool, what can it do?" asked Joz.
"It's fitted with 8 machine guns and 2 giant lasers, shared amongst the two wings. The two pods at the back are for you and Shadow. You two will be in charge of shooting while I concentrate on flying", said Miles. Joz looked around the lab. The first tornado was still there, the red biplane the brought him and Miles to Angel Island, to where he first met Shadow.
"What about the Tornado?" asked Joz.
"Oh the first Tornado has sedimental value. It'll always be with me as long as I live", said Miles. There was a short silence before Miles got up.
"Is there any reason why you're in my lab?" asked Miles.
"Oh yeah! GUN wants us to meet with them. They're wondering why it's taken so long to bring in Gerald", said Joz.
"Well I'm ready to go when you are", said Miles, "The Tornado F is finished".
"Then let's take it for a spin", said Joz, "HEY SHADOW WE'RE LEAVING GET YOU BUTT IN HERE"
Shadow soon appeared. Unlike the other Shadows he had no aged a day. He was the same Shadow he's always been and will always be.
"Cool plane Miles", said Shadow, "Where we going?"
"GUN HQ", said Joz.
"Oh great! What do they want?" asked Shadow.
"I'll tell you on the way", said Joz jumping into one of the Tornado F's seats. The other two jumped into their seats.
"Get ready guys for the ride of your life", said Miles.
"You said that about the last Tornado, and the one before that", said Shadow smiling. Miles sighed and pressed a button, opening a door revealing a runway.
"Was I wrong then?" asked Miles smiling. The other two also started smiling as the Tornado F's Engine started up. The flames from the jets started roaring and the Tornado F blasted along the runway as an incredible speed.
"YAHOO!" Shouted Miles as the Tornado F lifted into the air.
"I shouldn't have doubted you Miles", said Shadow, "That was Great"
"Ok, next stop to Prison Island", said Miles.
It wasn't long before the Tornado F touched down on Prison Island. They had gotten used to being summoned by GUN, but that didn't mean they liked it. They still hated GUN but still needed them. The General had since retired and a new one took his place. This new one is still unimpressed by the 3 Shadows and is awaiting real results. The 3 Shadows walked into the office of the General and Sat down.
"Ok we're here. What do you want now?" asked Shadow.
"Shadow, Miles, Joz I would like to say it's always a pleasure to see you but…" said The General before being interrupted by Joz.
"Hey it aint no holiday for us either. We know you're getting impatient but you should know by now Gerald isn't a pushover", said Joz.
"Enough excuses. We didn't ask you to come here to discuss why you keep failing to bring him in", said the General.
"Then why did you summon us?" asked Shadow.
