Shadow was a rather good looking hedgehog concidering his age, and everyone, including himself, knew it. The girls loved him, the boys envied him, his friends did both. Ever since he decided to live in town, not a day went past where a girl didn't look at him in awe. He thought he would never find someone who he could be in a proper relationship with. Shadow was losing the will to live. If only everything would change...
Amber Thorn was to Amy Rose as Shadow the Hedgehog was to Sonic the Hedgehog. She looked like Amy but was black instead of pink her eyes were red and her black hair had the red streaks just like Shadow. She wore a red dress with black net sleeves and tights. She wore small, flat, black shoe's. She was another creation of Professer Genrald Robotnik made the same time as Shadow, kept secret from even his own scientists and had finally awoken from years of sleep. Her awakening could only mean one thing, Shadow was under no command and was roaming free. Her mission was this, to capture Shadow and take him back to Robotnik.
Shadow woke up at 7:45 on a saturday morning. He got up and made himself a coffee while reading The Emerald Newspaper.
'Sonic the Hedgehog beats his last world record of running, hmm..."
He knew he could run the same speed as Sonic but he did not want anymore publicity than he did already. He was featured in nearly every local girl magazine. After reading the Newspaper and finding nothing of interest he strolled upstairs to have a shower. He got out, dried himself and got dressed.
"I think i'll go for a walk through Green Woods, i wonder if Amy would like to join me..."
He phoned Amy's mobile but there was no answer.
"How odd, she always picks up, she's probably in the shower or something."
Forgetting about it, he locked his door and started walking to Green Woods. As he walked, many girls turned and stared but he just ignored them, he was used to it by now. He reached the wood and started walking through admiring the scenery, a few minutes passed and he started to feel uneasy, like something that shouldn't be there was. The more he walked the closer this disturbance felt, on and on he walked. Somthing wasn't right, somthing was out of place. He stopped.
"Who is there, I demand to know imediatly!" commanded Shadow.
A black hedgehog emerged through the bushes.
"I am Amber Thorn and I am here to take you to Professor Generald Robo..."
Shadow was confused, why had she just frozen, what was the matter with her. She was beautiful, the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, his heart began to race and his eyes locked into hers. Shadow had never felt this before. He was in love. In love with a total stranger but she seemed familier.
