Mutilated

The mob of mass citizens at the plaza is relatively overflowed, often on Saturday afternoon's which is excellent. The more growth of the mass, the fewer evidence that will be left behind, like the twisted assassin that Shadow was. He could not let himself get distracted, he had to be focused and determined to find the culprit.

Shadow waded through the citizens in groups and those alone who were walking below as he stood on the towering building up high. His gun facing down, ready to fire, pointing at clueless pass byers.

"Have you spotted him yet?"

"No." Shadow side-glances as his girlfriend as she places her hand on his arm. He stiffens, afraid for her to be spotted by the enemy, but she sinks into a squat and hides behind the ledge. "This mission is by far too dangerous."

"I've been on missions by far more dangerous than this." Amy raised her eyebrow at him. "Don't you agree?"

Shadow takes a few cautious steps towards her. His eyes tense, in search of an unknown movement. "You could get hurt." He warned.

Amy laughed humorously and patted her boyfriends head, "I think that I can handle myself." She added a playful wink.

The black hedgehog couldn't help but smirk, Amy Rose was strong-minded and fit to protect herself, always ending her missions glorious, that is why he loved her so deeply. Although, he couldn't help but worry for her since the job they had was extremely dangerous.

A sudden sound of joy draws the focus of the lovely couple. A child is playing with his father, such a tender moment, it makes Amy's heart swell with love. It made her go into dreamland about her and Shadow having a family one day. "He's here." Amy blinks and her gaze drifts to where Shadow is focused on, a skunk standing alone and speaking on the phone. "Get down."

Shadow aims and places his finger on the trigger when a group of teenage girls block his target. Damnit. He thinks to himself as he pulls away and sets his sniper rifle to his side and watches as close as possible he is able to what the enemy does with his actions.

The culprit seems young although also experienced. They watch as he makes his way to an empty alley. He's making himself seem suspicious, this did not seem right, it was as if he knew he was being watched.

Amy stands and says, "He's getting away, lets go."

She waited by the metal door that led them down, taking this opportunity, Shadow watched his girlfriend from head to toe. She wore a black body suit with a utility belt with thigh pouches, she looked hot.

"Do you kiss as good as you look?" Shadow questions with a smirk as he passes by her and traces his finger tips across her lips.

Amy laughs and shoves him forward as they run down the stairs. "Nice pick up line, stud." She comments as the two quickly make it down to ground level.

The couple slid past the crowd of citizens, now in the alley then walk slowly and their eyes wonder everywhere. "Where did he go?" Amy asked, barely at audio level through her whisper as she pulled out her gun. "He couldn't have gone that far so quick."

Shadow moves aside and stops her momentarily as he checks the sky and frowns. "It's getting late, but, something doesn't feel right here, Rose."

That was correct, even though the alley was abandoned, it was way too silent. Amy was starting to feel rather uneasy, the pounding of her heart competed with the flutters of her stomach. It was not a good feeling, she felt as if something was to happen.

"Stop right there." The clicking of a gun was heard and the couple froze on the spot. The culprit had them right were he wanted. "Foolish of you two thinking I hadn't noticed I was being watched since I walked by that hotel."

"Well," Shadow raised his hands up in the air and twisted his body around to face the evil skunk and glared, "if it isn't Geoffrey St. John, surprise seeing you here."

Geoffrey laughed bitter and raised his gun at him. "Cut the crap, Shadow. I know that G.U.N sent you after me, and it seems you brought me a gift." He said gesturing to Amy with his head.

Shadow growled and narrowed his eyes, "Don't you dare or I'll make sure to kill you." He threatened as Amy hid behind him, acting like a damsel in distress.

"She's a pretty looking thing." Commented Geoffrey, tilting his head and showed off his mischievous smirk. "Wouldn't mind having my way with her."

Disgust was all Amy could feel, she gritted her teeth wishing she had worn something less tight that would hide her body. She often dealt with this type of harassment yet this man made her feel dirty just by his gaze.

She felt Shadow's tail flick against her and smiled, she wasn't a rookie so she understood what he was trying to communicate to her, Geoffrey had not taken notice that she held a weapon.

"You are sickening." Shadow said, trying his best to cover his Rose as she sneakily slid her gun behind him. "No wonder you never are able to get women unless their prostitutes or you force yourself upon them."

Geoffrey beamed a cold stare at Shadow and got ready to pull the trigger. "Don't you know it's stupid to insult a man holding a fucking gun, Shadow?" He asked with a manic laugh that would make small children pee themselves.

"Exactly." Amy said as she leaned against Shadow's back and took a shot at the evil skunk. The bullet hit directly at Geoffrey and sank into his chest making him fly back from the impact made.

Geoffrey was sure caught off by surprise. His eyes had flung wide and his gun had slipped out of his hand and flown to and against the cold ground.

"That's my girl." Shadow smirked at Amy who blew the air off her gun and winked at him. "Getting better at your aim I see, almost as good as me."

"I was taught by the best." She flashed him her white teeth and slyly smiled at her man. "Shot him right on the heart." She gazed over at Geoffrey's lifeless body, she felt horrible killing, but if she hadn't he would have killed others.

"You bitch!"

Bang. Bang. Bang.

The resonating pain in Amy's back pulsed to the sound assaulting her ears.

The victory had been short lived as excitement gave its way to worry. She stared down, she had been wounded. Pain welled up in her chest. As cold hearted as she had been before and countless of times she had murdered, never had she been deteriorated with a gun.

It was a tremendous pain that her body mutilated, sweat surrounded her body and she dropped to the ground, unable to stand anymore, the world around her began to turn to a blur.

"Rose!" Shadow screamed as he caught his girlfriend in his arms, his eyes swelled up with watery eyes as he glared coldly at the one who shot her. "I'll kill you!"

"You killed my husband!" A female black cat held her own gun at Shadow. Tears fell from her eyes as she ran to Geoffrey's side. Her voice was shaky and uneasy as she spoke, "How dare you?"

"Your husband is a murderer as well," Shadow replied bitterly. "He runs a sex trafficking business, cheats countless of time, and yet you still love him."

The cat was silent as she shook Geoffrey's limp body, as if shaking him would bring him back to life. "Geoffrey!"

"Sorry," the cat looked up to see a pointed gun on her forehead and glared at Shadow who returned the cold glare.

The cat laughed like her husband had before and held the gun to her forehead. "If that shot doesn't kill her, I'll make sure something else will in my husbands business." She threatened.

"Go to hell." Shadow snapped and pulled the trigger which caused him to be splashed with her blood. "Rose..." He whispered, he ran back to her side and picked her up. "Wake up!"

Shadow checked her pulse to see she was still breathing and let out a sight of relief. He needed to take her somewhere safe, a hospital, no, he looked over at the dead couple and glared. He was sure their employees would be keeping her words and do whatever they could to find Amy.

G.U.N had had incidents of entries before. Amy needed a place where no one, not even the best of spies would suspect of finding her. Shadow's mind wandered as of to where as he covered Amy's wound with a ripped piece of his shirt. The pain had been so strong that it had made her go into unconsciousness.

Don't die on me. Thought Shadow as he carressed his girlfriends cold yet tender face. He hugged her and did his best to stop her bleeding, she couldn't die, at least this way. He always imagend the two of them dying of old age, happy and together. Don't leave me, Rose.

He couldn't hold back the tears and let them overflow his eyes as he stood and searched around for any type of help. He had nowhere to go, no, he did. His mind snapped to his blood.

Little brother, you've never failed me before, so, don't fail me now. Shadow thought as he ran down the alley with Amy in his arms.
