Disclamer: I don't own Sonic The Hedgehog at all, please read and review
It shouldn't of happened...

Yet it did, years of fighting and then it happened...

Sonic stood on top of a broken piece of metal sticking out from the hard earth, the uneven surface of the metal made it hard to stand on but Sonic didn't care.

A salty tear fell down Sonic's right cheek, 'how could I of let it come to this?' Sonic turned around, the battle damage he had was nothing compared to his friends, Sonic sighed and looked at the messed up tangle of the Blue Typhoon, one of the wounds that they had during the final battle with Dr. Eggman was that the Blue Typhoon had crashed right into Dr Eggman's flagship and exploded almost to complete pieces.

"Sonic" Sonic looked over and spotted Shadow, his friend looked at Sonic with regret in his eyes, "I'm sorry Sonic, but I think he's..." Shadow trailed off as Sonic noticed a tear run down Shadow's cheek.

"There's more over here!" Amy came up the wreckage of the place where Sonic was standing and pointed towards the other many ships with people crawling out of them. "Any news?" Amy shook her head, "none Sonic, it would appear that Eggman was killed in that last hit" Sonic slightly smiled and then looked out to the ocean, 'Were are you' Sonic's thought rolled in his head until Cream started to walk up to Sonic as well, "What next Mr Sonic?" Knuckles having just punched his way out of the wreckage of the Blue Typhoon growled, "I couldn't find him"

Sonic looked down and his hands balled into fists as he closed his eyes, "he must be somewhere...Keep...Keep looking" Knuckles nodded, "I'll try Sonic but I don't mean to sound pessimestic but..." Shadow then looked to Sonic, "what if Tails is dead?" Sonic then looked at Shadow tears where now freely falling down Sonic's face and his eyes were bloodshot, "Don't talk like that, he's alive...he just has to be"

Amy then walked toward Sonic and wrapped her arms around him and Sonic just burst into tears, "It's not fair amy!...why did it have to be him...why?"

Shadow looked to Knuckles, "It would be fair just to have one last check" Knuckles nodded, "okay" Shadow then grinned, "If I find him, I get the chaos emerald" Knuckles then jumped down as Shadow jumped into the hole and smirked, "that's if you can find him before me" Shadow nodded, "Okay..." Shadow and Knuckles then ran off into seperate directions.

Team Chaotix's ship

Charmy opened one eye and looked out of the ship from where he was sitting, Charmy was looking at all the collateral damage that had happened, "man" Charmy rubbed his head, "That was one nasty battle...ugh, get off of me Vector" Charmy then pulled hard and managed to get his foot out from underneath Vector's body, "ahh that's better...now" Charmy then flies up and all he can see out of the window is, Machine pieces, Aircraft, blood, and all kinds of horrible things on the battlefield, as well as a nasty smell, "Ugh!" Charmy put his hands over his nose and mouth and flies downwards, "owch"

Blue Typhoon

Shadow searched harder and harder, "Tails...Tails!" he called down the empty corridors with no-responce, "damn it" Shadow then speeds off down one of the many corridors heading for the bridge.

Knuckles ploughed through another wall, "He's got to be here somewhere"

Shadow then tapped on the wall panel next to the bridge doors, "Damn Machine, I said open!" Shadow had obviously forgotten that when a ship has no power, it cannot open anything, "I'll make you then" Shadow then punches the door clean off it hinges. Shadow grinned, "I never did like those doorways...to slow" Knuckles appeared behind Shadow, "hello Shad" Shadow jumped, and then span around and growled, "do NOT call me Shad, I get enough of that from faker" Knuckles then smirked, "Whatever"

Shadow and Knuckles went around the bridge, and then Shadow started walking up the already destroyed steps, "Shadow, why are you going up there?" Shadow then rolled his eyes, "Because Tails might of been in the captain's chair when this thing crashed, dummy"

Shadow reached the top of the stairs and gasped at what he was seeing, "Knuckles...call the medical team...NOW!"


The one shot may continue...
