Okay! New story! Sorry I haven't done anything sooner. I've been really busy over the last couple of months with barely any free time.

So, this is the fourth story in my Blood Series.

I don't own the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.

So read, review, and enjoy!


Shadow raced through the streets, pumped full of energy and adrenaline. He did not know the source of this rush, but he loved the feeling of it. Skidding to a stop in an alley, Shadow scaled the wall to the roof and crossed his arms as he looked over the city. Despite it being so hectic and noisy in the city, he grew to appreciate it. This gratitude was due to his time he had to spend fighting for his life in a barbaric competition called the Sanguinem Elit. The Sanguinem Elit was a tournament between the creatures of the Sun and the Moon Curses; vampires like himself and the Lycans. These creatures were forced to fight each other to the death and he was one of the competitors and ultimately, the victor. However, he still had to continue fighting against the Champion Lycans and eventually, the Game Master himself. Managing to prevail against every single one of his opponents, he led a massive bloodshed on the rest of the Lycans who contributed to the barbaric sport and put an end to the Sanguinem Elit, but at a cost. Hearing a howl, Shadow closed his eyes and shuddered. Even though he won the Sanguinem Elit six months ago, he was still haunted by the horrors of it; the massive slaughter was burned into his memories forever. Snapping out of his thoughts as he heard the howl a second time, Shadow's fangs extended and his senses jumped up to full alert. That howl was not like the rest he heard since he won; this was a real howl. Catching a slightly unusual scent moving away at an intense speed, Shadow jumped from rooftop to rooftop as he began to follow the smell. There were some familiarities in the scent, but he could just not figure out why. The scent he was following got stronger and Shadow pushed himself harder. He was not going to let a Lycan come and wreck havoc on the city. Not after he saw the damage that could be done during his experience in the Sanguinem Elit. Noticing his target had come to a stop in the next alley, Shadow skidded to a halt and peeked down over the edge. Not seeing anything, Shadow cautiously leapt down, landed without a sound, and scanned the alley, ready to attack anything that came at him. Hearing some slight rustling noises behind him, Shadow whipped around and hissed to give a warning. Retracting his fangs as he saw Sonic casually stroll towards him in the alley and Shadow crossed his arms as he commented, "Going for a late night stroll Sonic?"

"Can ask you the same thing." Replied Sonic. He smelt the air and Shadow's crimson eyes widened slight as he realized why he was able to find similarities in the Lycan scent. "Well, from that look on your face, you probably figured out that I'm a Lycan…just like I know you're a vampire."


Okay, so there's the first chapter.
