So, uh, hi. This is my first decent fanfic and I might write some unintentionally OOC stuff as it is my first time after all, and I hope all you skeptical, flamethrowing, OC-bashing readers out there don't kill me. X-x Anyway, I'll just shut up and let you read it now.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Sonic, Shadow or any other official StH character that occurs in this fic. They belong to SEGA and/or Sonic Team. Game Locations such as Westopolis and Angel Island, etc. are also Sonic Team/SEGA's, I believe. And the song Almost Dead by Powerman 5000, of which the first part is featured in the prologue, is from the game 'Shadow the Hedgehog', therefore also belongs to, you guessed it, SEGA/Sonic Team. Otherwise, yeah, the rest is mine.

The ugly scrape of bone on rock.
No more gods
In the darkness, something shifts with a hollow, wooden clatter.
No more graves
The ages-old air reeked of death itself, death that had been defied, defiled… twisted apart from itself.
Are you friend or fiend?
Two dull points of poisonous, dim light glint ominously in the black. Watching. Waiting.
No more life,
As a cloaked figure approaches, the Thing shifts again, silently eliciting its' submission to its' master.
No more death…
The Thing steps out of the shrouding obscurity, into the dim moonlight, revealing itself to be a beast that looked as if it should be dead or have died long ago… but it isn't.
Something in between.

So that's the prologue, first chapter's coming soon, once I figure out what'll happen first...
