A new person…0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
"Why does everyone run when they see me, I'm normal, there's nothing odd about me…" Chaos said to himself, looking around the white-blanketed town.
"Everyone run for your life the devil is coming for us!!"
People were running everywhere. Chaos looked at the humans with a sad look on his face.
"What and who the hell are you!?!"
Chaos turned around quickly to see what and who was talking to him. In front of him stood a black and red hedgehog-looking creature, but an aura of humanity emanated from him.
"… I'm Chaos Seraph… And I'm a devil…" He whispered.
"Great a new person I have to fight... Gah" Shadow muttered under his breath. "Chaos why are you here and what do you want?"
"I just want to make sure that humans have hope in their lives…"
'He could be lying... But how will I know...?' Shadow thought. "Where did you come from Chaos?"
"…I'm not saying another word till you tell me who you are, and what, as well!"
"...I'm the ultimate life form, Shadow the Hedgehog, I protect this world from evil and devastation"
"...Why are these people afraid of me!?"
As Chaos said that, more people in a large group ran past him in fear.
"Hmph, the people will never learn when to stay home out of…"
Shadow cut himself off, deciding not to say the last word.
"Chaos, now tell me where you came from!"
"I came from the underworld. I came to talk to these people, I don't want to harm, them I just…"
Chaos shuddered with sadness, jumping up into the air and spreading his wings, flying for only the second time in his life. The first time he had flown had been on the night he had lost his family in a fire. Unfortunately, his wings had been badly burned that night, an injury that had never properly healed, so he only managed to get a few feet before falling back down to the ground. If one managed to get a look at his face, you would see tears rolling down his cheeks.
'What the hell is wrong with him...? Hmph... He could be tricking me. Gah…' Shadow walked forward as he thought. "...Are you okay Chaos?"
Shadow remembered something that Chaos had whispered earlier.
"Chaos, tell me your full name. Without whispering it this time."
Chaos turned to Shadow, several tears rolling down his face.
"My name is Chaos Seraph, I'm a devil, and I was crying because of something that happened to me when I was younger… I may look evil but I'm truly good…" He said. 'I think Shadow stills thinks I'm evil. I looked at him as he looks at me with this smile on his face, which scares me a bit…' He thought. 'Well at least I'm a little ways away from him if I have to fly away or run.'
'I'll see what he's like first, then I'll make my move on him, hmm' Shadow thought. "Hey Seraph…"

-Chaos' POV-
I had looked away, then I faced Shadow as he said my other name. I looked at him with a surprised face.
"Say that again for me Shadow…"
"I said, 'Hey Seraph'…"
I looked at him with a small smile on my face, trying not to show him my fangs too much.
"You're the first person to call me that… I never used it because of the fire that my parents died in... I was blamed for it…" It looked to me on his face he knew how it must feel to lose a loved one…
"Come with me Seraph."
I nodded, and went along with him as he began to lead me through a thick forest. I glanced over my shoulder to see another group of people at the edge of the town looking at me, but when they saw me looking back at them they ran. They could be the same group from earlier but they're too far away for me to tell. I looked away and ran to catch up with Shadow.
"We should be there soon"
I looked at Shadows face, noticing that his eyes were red as with my eyes. It gave me chills. I decided to wrap my wings around myself, as I found it a bit cold. Shadow looked back at me and laughed.
"Heheh… are you finding it cold out here?"
"A bit… Where are we, and where are we going…?" I had a big chill down my spine by now, I wrapped my wings around myself tighter. Shadow still didn't tell me anything nor did he talk. I looked over to my side to see a floating white spot. I asked him what it was but he remained silent, so I stopped. In the corner of my vision I could see that Shadow was still walking. He obviously hadn't noticed I was no longer following him. A strange feeling washed over me, and I felt cold on my back as blackness consumed my vision.

Shadow turned, an odd lack of sound behind him, to see Chaos collapsing onto the ground. He ran to Chaos but the cold had caused Chaos to lose consciousness. It appeared that he had fallen on sharp rocks that had torn his wings. Shadow was surprised, and he moved a bit of Chaos hair to see if he was still awake, hopefully still alive. When he moved Chaos' hair, his eyes were closed.
"Seraph... Wake up! …Chaos… Seraph… Chaos Seraph! Come on, wake up! Guh… What am I going to do with him...? He's hurt bad, his wings are injured."

-Shadows POV-
I put a hand on Chaos' neck, checking for a pulse to tell me that he was still alive. I sighed with relief as I found the pulse of his beating heart...
"Good, he's still alive. But I need to get him out of this cold, if he stays out here he'll end up dead." I picked him up, putting his wings around him again. I glanced around myself to see were I was.
"We're close... Hold in there Seraph…" I muttered to no one, surprising even myself with my newfound kindness. But then, I thought, Chaos doesn't seem like a half-bad guy.
"I got to get you inside, and fast." I can tell that he's getting colder, as I can see him shivering. He can't seem to stand the cold for very long. I take well to the cold of course, I'm a Hedgehog. I have fur, but he doesn't. I have to get him to my house and fast!

-Chaos' POV-
-Flashback-
I see my house, then see myself. It was the night of the fire. I was in bed, asleep, like my parents. I walked outside to see something. It was Jeff, a friend of mine back then. He had a carton of gasoline and some matches. I looked back at my house to see it blazing, on fire. That's when the smaller me wakes up to the smell of smoke, I remember. My parents, though, woke up too late. I was outside, and I had seen them in the doorway. I had felt happy, we were all going to survive. That's when the house fell in, crushing my parents, and any hope I'd had of us all making it out. They were gone... I had blamed myself for their deaths. Everyone else blamed me for starting the fire, which wasn't true. Now though, I know who had really started it, but I couldn't tell anyone. No one would believe me. All I felt now was pain… I didn't hear or see anything. I stared at the ground as everything faded to black.

Shadow had Chaos at his house, he had arrived there a little while ago and had Chaos put in bed. Shadow was hoping that Chaos was going to be okay. Shadow put a hand on Chaos' forehead to see how warm he was, because when he got him to the house Chaos was barely alive… Shadow could tell.
"Ill see how you're doing in the morning, I should go to bed now. I hope you'll be okay. Good-night Chaos."
Shadow went over to bed, leaning against it, just in case something happened overnight.

-Chaos' POV-
Another memory, if it was one, started up. This one I didn't do in my life. I could see someone... A person that looked like me, but I couldn't really tell. It was someone being mean to the children. I looked closer, and gasped as I saw my own face. I felt some pain if like my wing or arm was broken… I hear something but I'm not sure. It sounds like someone was saying my name. I feel like I had been asleep for hours but I just couldn't wake up…

The next Day
"Chaos are you awake?"
Shadow checked Chaos forehead to see how he was,Chaos was still a bit cold to Shadow touch. Chaos was starting to regain consciousness slowly.
"Chaos can you hear me?!" Shadow asked.
0o0o0o0o0
I know I heard something that time… It sounded like Shadow… Pain is all I can feel. My wings feel like they're broken. I wanted to saying something but I can't… Even open my eyes…
0o0o0o0o0
-Shadow' POV-
'I believe hes gaining consciousness . Hes trying to talk or open his eyes, he's in a lot of pain right now.' Shadow thought.
"Chaos if you can hear me make a noise or move one of your fingers if you can!"
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
-Chaos' POV-
I tried to make a noise but I'm just in too much pain to say something. So I moved my hand which was a bit easy at least… my whole body is in pain so I moved my hand…
"Yes you're alive that's good… are you alright? If so move your hand two times if not one time"
So I moved my hand one time, in alot of pain…
"Are you in pain from your wings… You have three holes in them two in the left, one in the right wing…"
I move my hand again but two times now… at least I know now why im in pain. The last time I was in this much pain was the fire, I burnt my wings it took forever for them to heal… I could tell by Shadows voice he was sad for me he seems to be a caring Hedgehog, well I think that what he said was… I can't remember a thing that happen to me and right now i don't know were I am. At least now I'm warm. I hate the cold I don't know why. Shadow told me to open my mouth so I did, he dropped something in my mouth.
"There in a few hours the pain should be gone."
I had hope, hes like my mother when I was young and she was still alive. She was always there o make me feel better when I was picked on in school… I want to tell him but I was still in so much pain. blackness consumed the bit of shit I had...
Lather on that day…
"Chaos are you awake now?"
I heard Shadow vioce and I woke up immediately and to my surprise I saw him looking down at me…
"So you are awake now, I told you you'll feel better soon, try saying something."
So I tyred"…thank you…you remind me of my mother when I was younger…"
I had to look away, I bet by now he thinks im a weakling…
"Chaos, I know myself how it feels, I lost someone I knew well 53 years ago."
I looked at Shadow, right in his eyes, I could see the hate, pain, and his sadness, there was a fire burning in his eyes…
"I lost Maria to the gunsoldiers. Her last words ill never forget."
"If you don't mind, what were Maria's last words?"
"They were 'bring hope to humanity' those words were the last words, before she sent me to earth"
"…What happen to Maria?"
"The gun soldiers shot her, she moved to send me down to earth. That was the last tine I saw her alive and the last time I heard her voice, besides in my memories…"
"I'm sorry for you Shadow..."
"There's nothing to be sorry for, Humans 53 years ago didn't understand then… now they left me a part of their city… they just think you're evil and are here to destroy this plant, like three years ago blackdoom tried to destroy this world but me and that blue Hedgehog saved the world."
"Well how can we show them im not like blackdoom?"
