Chapter 1
"WHY?" screamed Shadow, who was sitting atop a car that was vertical with its front end, smashed into the ground.
"ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE!" He screamed again. The city around him was in utter ruin, car were flipped, buildings had flames billowing out their windows, and some cars had slash marks running down their sides. Some buildings had collapsed; others had trucks jetting out the sides.
"THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENCE!" He buried his face in his hands. Dead bodies of G.U.N. soldiers were scattered here and there. The one closest to Shadow had a large pole protruding out of his stomach. Others were half buried under cars and pieces of rubble from the surrounding buildings.
"I WITNESSED ALL OF THIS MADDNESS BUT I COULD NOT STOP MYSELF!" Shadow looked at a large tree lying in the middle of the street. Its leaves were being blown across the street by the wind. "It's time to go…" He got up and picked up his green emerald and hopped off the car. He looked left and right for a vehicle and he did he found a motorcycle that had been spared for the most part. The motorcycle sped of as he pulled on the throttle. He noticed the giant red sun setting in front of him. He felt the wind blow through his unkempt blood stained hair.
Several hours later while he was speeding down an empty road surrounded by fields of wheat he noticed a large plane fly over his head very fast and very low. It was blue but to shadow it was hard to tell because of the darkness of the night. It had lights on the bottom of it. For the split second it passed over, Shadow saw that the lights illuminated a name on the side of the plane. "Tornado II" read the words.
"Bingo!" yelled shadow as he pulled out his emerald. The emerald was glowing, Shadow knew what that meant. An emerald had to be in that plane also. He rose up on the motor cycle and shouted "Chaos Control!" He was gone and the motor cycle wobbled and slowed down as it sped on rider-less until it hit a power pole and blew up in an explosion of flame and smoke.
He appeared on top of the wing of the plane that had flown over him. one hand was clutching the emerald the other was holding onto the edge of the wing. He watched as the wheat field turned into buildings and houses. The Tornado was descending to a small patch of land on the outer limits of the city. The plane touched down on a runway as the tires screeches on the cement as they slowed to a stop.
Shadow hoped off as the pilot exited the plane. Shadow knew who it was without a doubt, it was tails. A second figure emerged from the plane, the figure was Knuckles. Shadow turned to see a giant dust cloud speed towards them. Sonic was the one the dust cloud belonged to as he came to a stop next to Tails.
"So Tails did you know we have a guest?" sonic used his thumb to indicate that someone was on the other side of the plane. "Come on out Shadow, you were never very good at hiding." Shadow emerged with a look of annoyance on his face.
"Why are you here any way?" Knuckles asked when they were all inside tails' lab.
"Why would I tell you, you red idiot?" Knuckles tried to grab shadow but Shadow began to speak again. "I'm here for Tails. I need his help."
Sonic stood there mouth open and so did knuckles. "I have been having periods in which bad things happen that I have no control of and I need Tails to help get to the bottom of th…" Shadow was cut off mid-sentence. Shadow's eyes started to go blue and his pupils disappeared in the sea of blue. "NO!" shouted Shadow as the red streaks in his hair disappeared and black took their place. His normally perfect spikes became jagged and disorganized.
"Oh Crap!" Sonic shouted as he shoved Tails and Knuckles through a door and prepared for the worst.
