Okay, just so you know, this is pretty much in Sonic the Hedgehog category due to the whole Werehog thing and that this is like Sonic Unleashed only my OC's are involved. I'll have a poll to find out if it should stay in this category. If you have any better suggestions, tell me in the reviews. Anyway, enjoy!
"So what are you planning on doing tonight?" a girl with shoulder length brown hair asked, looking from one person to another. "Probably head around the town," a girl with short, plum tinted hair, Shannon, said. "Maybe nothing," a boy with short brown hair, Jack, said, looking to a boy with fair hair, Stephen. "Probably the same," Stephen said, listening to a song on his iPod. "What about you Shadow?" Laura asked, looking to a boy with long black hair that had thin dark blue stripes in it, some of his hair coming down over his face, covering some of his right eye. "More than likely go around the town the same as every week, alone," he said, his dark blue eyes on Shannon. "Maybe I'll see you tonight," he said before the bell rang, heading off to class. "Anyone in particular you're going around the town with?" he asked Shannon as they walked to class. "Maybe, why?" she asked. "No reason," he said back, accidently bumping into someone in front of him, making them drop what they were carrying. "Sorry, let me help you with that," he said as he help the person pick up their stuff. As he handed the stuff back, he recognised the girl. Her name was Miranda, and had long black hair that went halfway down her back. She also had violet hue eyes and almost white skin. "It's okay," she said, her voice a little creepy as always, as she walked away.
"Smooth move," Shannon said as Shadow caught up to her. "Maybe we should hurry up and get to class," he said back, trying to change the subject. They walked quickly to chemistry class, sneaking in before the teacher noticed they were late. "Alright class, today, we will be mixing the chemicals in front of you together to see if we get a reaction. You will be working with the person next to you," the teacher said, walking around the room. "Late again you two," he said as he passed Shannon and Shadow. "I hate it when he does that," Shannon whispered as Shadow poured a purple liquid into a beaker. He then reached for a beaker of red powder, pouring it into liquid. "It just means we have to be on time next time," Shadow said as he watched the liquid bubble. "So what do you think will happen?" Shannon asked, watching as it bubbled more and more. "Hopefully, not explode on us," Shadow joked as the teacher looked over their shoulders. "Nicely done, now try adding something else into it," he said as he moved to the next pair. "So, which to add now," Shannon said, looking at the three beakers in front of them. "Maybe this one," Shadow said, grabbing a beaker of dark blue liquid.
"Now it's important you don't mix the blue liquid with the red powder in any solution," the teacher said as Shadow finished adding the blue liquid, causing the solution to bubble violently. "Oh that's not good," he said as teacher came over. "This isn't good, the gas these chemicals are making are unstable in an enclosed room. Who knows what'll happen if they're inhaled," the teacher said as Shadow's eyes widened. "Oh goody, double jeopardy," Shadow said, looking up at the teacher. "We need to get rid of these chemicals now," the teacher said, holding his breath as he poured the solution down the drain, washing any remaining liquid out with water. "Any idea what happens when that solution is inhaled?" Shadow asked, a nervous expression on his face. "It's still unknown what happens when it's inhaled in an enclosed space," the teacher said, making Shadow glance at Shannon while he walked away. "In other words, anything could happen," Shadow sighed as the teacher went on to explain some of the solutions that could be made.
"I really can't get my mind off that Chemistry class," Shadow said to himself as he ran his lap of the school. He was in PE class, but wasn't enjoying it as much as he always did after what happened earlier. "Then why don't you stop complaining," a girl said as she came up behind him. She had long blond and black hair and light blue eyes. Her name was Maria, and was a close friend of Shannon. "Mainly because I inhaled something that is unstable in an enclosed room," he replied as she caught up to him. "I doubt that it being unstable means anything that serious. It could be a rash or something," she said, jogging alongside him. "I hope you're right," Shadow said as they turned a corner, seeing some other people in front of them. "Oh great, as if my day couldn't get any worse," he said through gritted teeth as he saw two people in front of him that he didn't want to see. One of them was a boy taller than him, with dark brown hair and blue eyes. His name was Adam Young, and the boy with him was his friend, a slightly shorter blond haired boy called Steve Sloan. They had annoyed Shadow all day, and as they glanced back, Shadow could just make out grins on their faces, making him a little angry.
"Hey Shady, having a good day lately?" Steve asked mockingly as Shadow and Maria caught up. "No, get the heck out of here!" Shadow shouted, trying to pass them. "Aw, little Shady's been having a bad day. Maybe we should help make it better," Adam said as the two of them blocked Shadow and Maria. "Get lost you two! What's your problem anyway?" Maria shouted, slowing down as Adam cut in front of her. "What, we're just trying to help out little Shady," Steve said, faking innocence. "For the last time ever, the name's Shadow and you can help yourselves by leaving me alone!" Shadow shouted as he grabbed Maria's arm and sprinted on the grass past Adam and Steve. "I think he wants to play," Adam said to Steve, the two of them already starting to speed up. "Yeah, let's play catch me if you can!" Maria shouted back, barely keeping up with Shadow. "I guess we'll win easily," Steve called out, him and Adam closing in on the two of them. "You ready to ditch them?" Shadow asked, a dark smile on his face. "Do you even need to ask?" Maria said, grabbing Shadow's arm as he ran faster, turning the final corner and climbing the last hill, finishing the lap at least a minute before Adam and Steve came up the hill, panting like a dog on a hot day. "I thought I'd thank you for making my day," Shadow said as he and Maria threw Adam and Steve's bags at them, making them fall backwards, while Shadow and Maria walked away, trying not to burst out laughing.
"So, you doing anything tonight?" Shadow's twin sister asked as Shadow sat back and watched TV. She was the same height as him, with long, light brown shoulder length hair and blue eyes. Her name was Amy. She sat down on the sofa next to him, watching the TV. "Is it just me, or is it cold in here?" Shadow asked, a little shaky. "No, why would it be? It might be freezing outside, but I feel pretty warm in here," she said, seeing him shivering a little. "Are you okay?" she asked, moving away from him slightly. "I feel like....like something's about to grow out of my back," Shadow said, his voice now a little lower. "Okay, just make sure it doesn't grow right now," Amy said, getting up and answering the door. Shadow sat there as Amy let in a tall boy with light coloured hair and a girl who was a little shorter with long dark brown hair. They were their friends Gale and Sean. "Where's Cody?" Amy said as a boy dashed in. He had light brown skin, short black hair and wore glasses over his brown eyes. "Where did you.....?" Amy asked, seeing the puddle marks on his blue jeans. "Don't ask," Cody said, a grin on his face. "Well, hope you guys enjoy yourselves while I........" Shadow said, clutching his chest. "Are you okay?" Gale asked, her eyes widening as Shadow yelled in pain. He fell to the floor, looking as if someone had kicked him in the stomach. "What.....what's happening to m....." he groaned, shaking violently.
"What in the world is......?" Sean said as Shadow's skin seemed to change colour. In a few seconds, Shadow's skin started to sprout dark blue fur. A pair of downward curved spikes grew on his back, also covered in fur. His trainers started to change too, small spikes appearing on the bottom while a half-ring of them appeared in the middle of the shoes. His hands grew larger, the nails on his fingers growing fatter and sharper, while his hands turned a lighter shade of blue from the fur and fur on his wrists turned white. Six large slightly downward curved spikes came out of the back of his head, also covered in fur that was mostly dark blue, while the tips of the spikes were white. A pair of fangs grew in his mouth while his eyes turned bright green. As the transformation finished, what Shadow had become let out a large growl, causing everyone in the room to hide behind something.
"What the heck was that?" Sean shouted, peaking at what was now in the middle of the room. "I don't know, but do you think it wants to eat us?" Cody asked, also taking a peak. "What are you guys hiding from?" a voice said, sounding like Shadow, only it had a noticeable growl to it. "Shadow, is it still you?" Amy asked, her voice nervous and shaky. "I know I've changed but come on, you guys saw me change into this........thing," Shadow said, giving an annoyed look in Amy's direction. "Are you sure you're not going to eat us?" Cody asked, slowly coming out of his hiding place. "Of course not, why would I even want to?" Shadow asked, slowly getting to his feet. Everyone looked at him, noticing he was a little taller, while his arms had grown bulkier. "What have you turned into anyway?" Gale asked, cautiously eyeing over him. "Well, it's a were-something, and it does look like Sonic the Hedgehog so, just call me Shadow the Werehog," he said, smiling a little so his fangs showed. "It does look pretty cool," Sean said, a grin on his face. "But how did you even become this thing? Do you think it has something to do with earlier in Chemistry?" Amy asked, still having a nervous look on her face. "Well, however you got it, you do look pretty cool," Cody said, backing into a table with an ornament on it, making the ornament fall. Without thinking, Shadow reached out, his arm stretching out and catching the ornament before it hit the floor. "Okay, that was awesome," Sean said, his eyes wide as Shadow's arm stretched back. "By the way, are you still heading out tonight like....that?" Amy asked, seeing Shadow smile. "Of course, but I think I'm going to have to be careful who sees me like this," Shadow said, heading to the door without saying anything.
