Don't Even Try It
So this is…my first Shadamy on this site! Whew! -people cheering-
Okay. Enough of me playing around. It's been a while since you have seen anything outta me and I'm sorry! I went through a bunch of things including thinking my writing sucks (which I still happen to think xD But I'm gonna give things another go). This would've been up sooner if the site wasn't down for like EVER!
So Anyways, I don't know how often this story will be updated. Let me throw that out there. Believe me, you won't wanna rush me or my description won't be good. Because I dissect each sentence one by one and add more detail after I've written everything out the first time. So please be patient. I'm trying my best here!
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters in this story. Sonic Team does and blahh…
A column of fluorescent light deeply burned his eyes, blocking his view to the world around him. The sun was simply too much for the naked eye to handle during the scorching summers of Station Square.
Many times throughout the day, he would find himself blocking the view of the sun with the palm of his hand, or wiping off gallons of sweat from his body.
It was official. Shadow the Hedgehog loathed the sun.
It looked so much more desirable in space. The intensity of it did not harm one's eyes or interfere with his day. It looked nice enough to touch…
Although, the stars were much more of interest. The way they shimmered in every corner in the abyss of space. He spent his time talking to them, since there was no one else around to listen. They were like him. They would sparkle, as if acknowledging his presence, but never speak at all.
Since then he realized, no one cared about what he had to say, therefore he would not speak. No one was worth his breath.
"Where the hell is he?" Shadow growled, his teeth clenching tighter and tighter after each word.
Except him. He was a special exception.
Shadow moved to skate along the eroded sidewalk of Station Square, his skates humming and scraping loudly against it.
Shadow laughed to himself when he realized the noise was too much for the feeble humans and their delicate ears as they shot glares his way and muttered things under their breath.
"Hmph." A smirk etched its way on his face as his boxy white and red skates accelerated, making the noise unbearable.
'That any better?' Shadow thought to himself.
His small victory only lasted a few seconds before the sun's rays brightened and beat against his black fur, ignoring the red streaks running across his body.
Crystalline beads of sweat started to accumulate under Shadow's fur and slither down his body.
He didn't know what pissed him off more, the fact that he was sweating, or the fact that he would need another shower.
All of Shadow's heated thoughts drifted to Sonic. He would pay that much greater.
"The train for the Mystic Ruins will be departing soon…"

"Tails! Can you turn on the game? I'm tired of watching the news!" Knuckles complained. "Who cares about global warming anymore?"
"…Well I do," Tails muttered quietly and slightly rested his chin on his golden brown tail he had been playing with. Once he was sure Knuckles was done bothering him, his eyes averted back to the screen as if he was hypnotized.
Knuckles waved his bulky gloved hands in front of Tails face, causing a gush of wind to blow in his eyes and burn them.
Tails rubbed his aqua eyes vigorously with his gloves and frowned at Knuckles.
"Meh. You're not important," Knuckles muttered.
A series of pounds erupted from the main entrance to Tails' small workshop, making both Knuckles and Tails jump.
"Relax," Knuckles laughed nervously. "It's probably Sonic being an idiot and forgot something."
Knuckles dug his elbows into the arms of the La-z-boy recliner he was sitting in and pushed himself up; dragging himself over to the door.
"Whaddya wa-"
The echidna's sentence stopped abruptly when he realized it wasn't Sonic he was yelling at. His cheeks turned to the deep color red of his fur from embarrassment.
'No! I'm not embarrassed!' Knuckles thought to himself. He was the strong guardian of the master emerald. There was never time for embarrassment! It was probably just the sun. It was hot that day after all…
"Shadow?"
The coal colored hedgehog didn't look amused and huffed in response to Knuckles obvious question before brushing past him and going inside Tail's workshop.
With a quick shrug of his shoulders, Knuckles ignored Shadow's rudeness and followed him inside.
"You're just in time for a segment of save the rain forest with Tails the Fox," Knuckles teased.
Shadow completely ignored Knuckles comment and smirked. "Where is Sonic?"
"Shh!"
Knuckles' and Shadow's heads jerked towards Tails with the same glare on their faces for interrupting.
"Breaking news. It has been reported that 'Station Square's Silent Stalker has abducted another victim. We have no suspects or descriptions yet on this person or persons. The victim was, of course, another female. The female has been identified as seventeen year old, Samantha Lane. She was deemed missing after not making it home from school earlier the previous day. For more details…"
Tails muted the voice of the female reporter and turned to Shadow and Knuckles. "If its not one thing, it's another. When Eggman is quiet, the crime rate skyrockets."
"Those poor girls," Knuckles whispered to himself absent-mindedly.
A heavy silence set uncomfortably in the room. Knowing they were only heroes, not crime investigators, limited the things they could do for situations like this.
Shadow's teeth clenched together and he cleared his throat loudly after a minute to get the other's attention. He hadn't forgotten why he came.
"Well…"
Tails turned his attention to Shadow and nodded, "Oh, right! I don't know where Sonic is, but we can help you look for him while we're out informing people about this man. Sonic can help spread the word as well."
'If Sonic isn't a body bag himself.' Shadow thought to himself, smiling evilly.
Knuckles grunted impatiently and stretched his pencil arms, "Sounds good to me."
"Hmph." Shadow nodded at the others before skating off out the door.
"I think that's a yes," Knuckles said uncertain.
Tails shot Knuckles a "ya- think?" look. "Better catch up to him."
His furry tails began to rotate over his head furiously as his red and white sneakers lifted off the old wooden floor of the workshop before he shot off in the direction Shadow went, with Knuckles closely behind.
Xoxoxoxoxox
His pink tongue wriggled slowly out of his thin lips, swirling around them as the he inhaled the smell of chllisauce through his black button nose.
"Mmm," He breathed before opening his mouth.
"Sonic!"
Sonic's eyes shot open at the sound of his name, and before he knew it, his backside connected with the cement of Walter's Chilidog House.
Not even caring about being knocked to the ground, Sonic's gaze shot up to his chilidog freefalling in mid-air.
With every ounce of energy he had, Sonic pushed himself off the ground and launched himself into the air. His hands outstretched like a crane, almost touching the chilidog, only to have it smacked out of his reach and litter across the ground.
"What the hell, Shadow!" Sonic yelled. "You'd better be buying me a new chilidog."
"Hmph. In your dreams. As soon as you explain to my boss the fucking voicemail you set up on my work phone," Shadow growled.
Sonic gulped and tried to think of something to say, but wasn't quick enough for Shadow's liking and got snatched up by his short blue chest fur.
Another gulp…
And another…
"Well-"
"What's going on?" Tails shouted as he ran up, with Knuckles close behind him.
Sonic relaxed and pried Shadow off of him since he was distracted. Thank God for Tails. He was always there to get Sonic out of sticky situations. Whether it was with Amy, Shadow, or even Knuckles.
His little brother had a way of showing up when he needed him most.
"Yeah, Shadow. What's going on?" Sonic asked innocently.
"How about you tell everyone how you set up an inappropriate message on my voicemail? Better yet, I'll play it for them," Shadow shot back.
He reached into his quills and pulled out a hi-tech looking phone.
The sun light deflected off the touch screen. It was a very sleek black phone. The keyboard wasn't even noticeable until Shadow slid it out and swiftly ran his fingers across it.
"It's beyond me how he even figured out my password," Shadow said sharply.
"That's easy," Sonic laughed, "Six, six, six because-"
Sonic stopped talking and backed away before Shadow could lunge at him.
"Well, Sonic is pretty crafty when he wants to be," Knuckles admitted.
Shadow hushed everyone and put his phone on speaker. "Hi! This is Sonic the Hedgehog," Sonic's voice said cheerfully. "Shadow can't get to the phone right now. He's busy…or avoiding you because he's an ass. Feel free to call back anytime. Especially at night…Shadow gets lonely and his hotline is always open for loners like him…you can run your fingers through his sexy white chest hair-"
Shadow took the phone off speaker but you could still hear Sonic's moaning coming from the phone.
Sonic's cheeks were crimson by the time everyone looked at him. "Uh…heh heh. Gotta run!"
A cloud of dirt stirred up from Sonic's feet as he took off running down the busy streets of Station Square, dodging oncoming traffic along the way.
"You get your ass back here!" Shadow bellowed and immediately gave chase.
"Wait you two! What about warning people!" Tails yelled desperately.
And there it is! The prologue to my new story! Review and tell me what you think! Reviews are part of my motivation. It lets me know people are reading and, of course, it gives me joy! So you know what to do! (This would've been up sooner if I didn't keep getting that error message!)
