SuperSonicSpeed: Hello everyone and welcome! Before getting started, I'd like to say, this is an adopted story. The original was written by the one and only, claws the tiger! *Applause* So if you want to check out the original, please feel free! Claws the tiger, thank you so much for letting me adopt your story and I'll do my best to not disappoint!
Shadow: Enough hold ups.
Sonic: She doesn't own us!
Tri colored shoes clicked against the concrete floor while red eyes pierced through a few of the unlit streets of Soleanna. Shadow the Hedgehog had walked around the city after hearing rumors that downtown had recently opened some new shops.
'New shops...' He huffed, 'More like overpriced junk in a shack.'
As Shadow headed back to home, he walked by an alleyway and heard an echo of a soft whimper. He paused and debated with himself before he followed the source of the sound. After a few seconds, he reached a dead end and found nothing.
'I could've sworn I heard...'
Through the corner of his eye, he caught sight of something hidden behind a few trash cans.
'A basket?' He moved one of the cans to the side and noticed an odd shape was being covered by a light blue blanket. Shadow's curiosity got the better of him as he reached for it.
He hesitated a bit before he peeled back the blanket slowly and was surprised when he found a sleeping tiny, baby blue hedgehog. He peeled the blanket out a bit further and looked over the baby's body. His eyes widened as he dropped the blankets edge and gasped, the baby was so thin that its ribs were showing.
'It's been a long time since this baby has had a descent meal.' Shadow saw the baby stir and slowly open his emerald eyes.
He looked around the alley confused, but when the baby hedgehog took one look at Shadow, he started to cry and beg for food. Shadow couldn't help but feel sorry for the baby hedgehog.
'If I leave him here, he'll die...,' He shook his head, 'What kind of ungrateful mother would abandon a kit?' Shadow picked up the basket and carried it out, 'Figures, I go out for a few things and instead I'm coming home with a baby.'
He sighed and began to race through the city, wanting to get something into the baby's system. He slowed down when he realized something,
'He doesn't even have a name yet,' He checked the baby's gender, 'A boy.' Shadow already had a name in mind, 'Sonic. Sonic the hedgehog.'
The baby began to cry again making Shadow run at a high pace once more.
"Don't worry Sonic, you'll have something to eat in no time. I promise."
SuperSonicSpeed: A few changes (or a lot), but other than that, what did you all think?
Shadow: Hmph...
Sonic: Leave a review and give your opinion. *thumbs up and wink*
SuperSonicSpeed: Til' next time!
