Amber walked home from school alone. The young Thordyke was thinking about this hedgehog she had never met, Shadow. Her father and the others told her about him, but she never saw him. She would like too.

She felt a strong wind. Its probably Sonic.... she thought. The creature stopped. Amber got closer to it. "S-s-...." She could tell that this was NOT Sonic. The hedgehog was black and had red striped coming down its quills. "Shadow?" She said. Then she clamped her hand over her mouth. "Yes that is my name." Shadow said not turning around. Then he ran off.

Amber followed him on her skateboard. Even though he was running fast, her rocket boosters helped her keep up. The hedgehog rand through some woods, then over some water. She looked around. He ran to a rocket that had landed in the middle of an island. "Eggman's base.." she mumbled. She turned her Skateboard into a waterboard and zoomed tot he base.

Amber was able to catch up to Shadow without him knowing. He turned and walked into a room. She hid ih a nearby closet and pressed her ear onto the wall. She could only hear certain things, because the walls were so thick. "So.......the plan......bait right........."She was sure that the talking person was Eggman. Two robot voices called out. That had to be Bocoe and Decoe. A low voice grumbled. That was Shadow. "Yes.....I didnt see her......Im sure..." Her eh? Mabey Amy....but why her for a bait? Or Cream? Cosmo? nah.... ME??? Oh good lord no!!

She sank to the bottom where there was a crack of light. "Ow," She mumbled as she ran her arm into a stick. "Grrr, what does Eggman keep in here?" She wispered to herself. SHe crouched onto the floor so she could see if she could get out. She heard a door close and some footsteps. It stopped infront of the closet. She held her breath. Eggmans feet were visible. "Get the girl." Shadows skated were next to his. "How do i know which one is she?" Eggman sneered. "The red head who sings."
