Steam flowed beside my body, taking my first step I looked around myself. All I could see were capsules, some empty some not.

"Ah experiment 2463 awakens! Welcome to the real world, I hope you remember me."

To my dismay I did not remember him the mysterious man looked at me no.. stared at me.

"Who are you and what do you want from me?" I asked.

'Me? I am your father 2463, Dr Zinkovich. I created you and brought you into the real world."

" What am I then father?"

" You are a project, created to be a weapon, but I have given you the body of Shadow the hedgehog."

"What's my name?"

"Shade"

I looked at my crimson skin and I thought that shade was a fitting name for my looks. I felt my quills tense as I restlessly turned around looking for the cause.

"Shade come it's time for your training session, level 1: running."

I followed my father looking around not sure whether to be scared of the many people I see or not.
