New story!
I don't own the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.
So, read, review, and enjoy!
Jumping across the rooftops of the city at midnight, Shadow savored the silence. Midnight was usually when the city was at its quietest and when it was quiet, he was able to think...especially for the last few months. Six months ago, he discovered that Sonic the Hedgehog, his arch-rival, was a Lycan or a creature of the Moon Curse and Sonic knew he was a vampire. As a result of their curses, he and Sonic were now Blood Rivals, sworn enemies of each other. However, both of them were able to put their differences aside to fight off a group of vengeful hunters after he had killed one and eventually, came face-to-face with Katherine, the female Lycan that bit Sonic and changed him into a Lycan. During the confrontation, they discovered Katherine had sent the hunters after them in order to test Sonic and when the blue hedgehog failed the test, she came to finish him personally. Eventually, Katherine tortured him and was ready to finish him off and would have succeeded if Sonic did not break his Pack Loyalty to Katherine and freed him. Then, Katherine and Sonic fought and Katherine was ready to deliver the final blow to Sonic, he intervened and stabbed Katherine in the heart with a silver knife, killing her. As a result of how he killed Katherine and Sonic's sacrifice, he now felt he had a debt that needed to be repaid. Seeing the azure hedgehog he was thinking about on a nearby rooftop, Shadow headed towards his arch-rival. Noticing Sonic's back was turned to him, Shadow smirked as he went to metal vent and hit it three times, resulting in Sonic to jump from the echoing bangs. Scowling as he saw Shadow's smirk of satisfaction, Sonic snapped, "Quit doing that! You're gonna give me a heart attack!"
"Heh. I'm just making sure you're alert," shrugged Shadow as he went up to Sonic, "besides, a heart attack wouldn't kill you...well, maybe for a minute or two."
"Which gives you enough time to stab me in the heart with something silver." Retorted Sonic and Shadow's smirk turned into a scowl as he crossed his arms.
"I told you. The only reasons I would kill you is if you tried to kill me first or if you became out of control," Shadow firmly stated, "I have a debt that needs to be repaid."
"Shadow. I said you don't have to do anything. You killed Katherine because she was going to kill me and she was going to kill you afterwards. We're even. You don't owe me anything."
"Hmph. So you say."
"Man, you're stubborn. Well, if that's the case...Up for a little friendly competition?"
"Hmph. Don't waste my time. We both know I could easily take you down."
Obviously annoyed by the comment Shadow made, Sonic coldly asked, "Then why are you here?"
"Hmph. The only reason I'm hanging around is because I have a debt that needs to be repaid." Shadow bluntly answered and Sonic rolled his eyes with a disapproving sort of scoff at the response.
Starting to ignore Sonic as Sonic started to ramble about something he did not care about, Shadow heard a female voice talking from the street below them and he turned in the direction of the noise. Looking down over the edge, he saw it was a blonde teenage girl and she was tightly holding onto the arm of a muscular teenage boy. "Oh my gosh! That movie was so scary! Did you see how that monster just attacked everyone?! I've never been so scared in my life!" he heard her rant and Shadow scowled as he turned back to face Sonic.
"Hmph. These humans are so pathetic. Imagine if they saw a REAL monster." Shadow remarked with disgust in his tone.
"Well, not many people know we exist." Sonic replied.
Shadow continued, "Hmph. They should be more concerned about the monsters that could kill them in a second. Take you and me for example. We could probably-"
"I get the picture," Sonic cut off, "but like I said, not many people know that we exist. And those who do, they try to kill us. So, it's a good thing that not many people know we exist."
"Well, I'm just saying that they should learn not to be afraid of something as trivial as movie monsters when monsters really exist, but this is getting boring. I'm leaving." Shadow declared before he jumped off the ledge he was standing on into an alley below and Sonic rolled his emerald eyes before doing the same in the opposite direction.
Meanwhile, both of the hedgehogs had been oblivious to being watched by a man from down below on the street. In fact, the man had camouflaged so well into the surrounding area, someone walking right past him would not notice him. "So, the rumors about those two working together and not being typical Blood Rivals are true." The person watching the two hedgehogs muttered to himself. He gave a malicious grin as he began to walk away. "Looks like if I want this to cause more havoc and destruction than I originally planned…I think it's about time I found my real double."
Okay, so there's the first chapter!
Hope you liked it and don't forget to leave a review!
