Me: Whoohoo! I get to continue this!

Sonic: *rolls eyes* Oh, joy.

Me: oh whatever.

Tails: Sega owns us!

Cream: Please enjoy!

Sonic flew as quickly as he could back to the house. All of his friends were unconscious so he didn't care that he was in his dark form. Or at least he thought. Shadow was still somehow conscious. But just barley.

Shadow's P.O.V

My head is pounding and my vision is so blurry,I can barely see. Everything hurts. I guess it does when you get FREAKING ELECTROCUTED! Chaos, when I get my strength back Eggman's toast! That is... if Sonic doesn't kill him first. Man he's angry, I don't even think I get that pissed. So this is his dark form huh? Not very scary if you ask me... but then again he's not trying to rip me to shreds like he probably wished to do to the doctor. Does he even know I'm conscious? I tested my theory by slightly moving my foot. A sharp pain shot up my leg and I had to bite my lip to stop from swearing. I took that as a " don't do that again". It seemed to have worked though. Sonic instantly stopped and turned his head to face me. A relieved sigh passed through his lips and I noticed his green eyes lighten and his natural fur and quill colors slowly coming back. But instead of a light sapphire, it was more of a dark blue. It was a sign that he still wasn't very happy.

Sonic: I see you're awake Shadow..

Even though I heard it back at the base, I was still shocked by his tone. Instead of the light-hearted, cheerful tone, it was low and dripping with both anger and... sadness? Why was he sad? We've been through worse than this before, haven't we? Of course not you idiot... even after a dangerous battle, he was always the one who had taken the most damage. And there was always one of the girls to help him. This time he used threats to basically win. Hmmm... I never thought I'd see the day where he would do that..

Before long we arrived back at the mansion. Rouge kicked me in the back as some sort of reflex, once again I had to bite back a swear. Although I probably could have seen this coming, instead of simply turning the doorknob and getting in the non-violent way, Faker had to kick the door so hard it flew off it's hinges and crashed into the back wall, causing several cracks to appear. After that he rushed inside and carefully laid all of our friends out on the couches. Great, Faker get's mad and now we have to fix a wall and get a new door... It did make Amy shoot up from where he laid her on the couch, her skull crashing into a unsuspecting Faker's. I had to stifle a laugh, though I couldn't help but smirk. Then it faded off my muzzle. Though it wasn't much, I could have sworn that his fur turned darker as if he was angered. Gee... if he's angered this easy I wonder how he's been putting up with the rest of his annoying crew without clobbering someone in the head. Like the poor door... Of course my thoughts switched back to the pink hedgehog who was staring at the older used-to-be-sapphire hedgehog. She spoke in a shocked, and slightly scared tone.

Amy: S-Sonic?! W-What happened to you?! Why are you dark blue?! Why are your eyes darker?!

Instead of answering her multiple questions, he simply shot her a glare and ran off to his room. Amy looked shocked at his actions before her attention turned to me. Her lips parted as she was going to speak. I simply shrugged before the words could leave her mouth. It wasn't long before the others slowly but surely woke up. Each of us having the same scene play over and over in our mind like a broken record. Sonic crashing into the base, looking ready to kill the fat human in front of him. Tails, who had known him for the longest and was practically his brother, was switching from being scared of him, to being angry for not telling him. I know each one of them was desperately searching for answers of any kind. But they didn't want to ask. They were too scared. Scared of the truth. Scared of the so-called "hero" turning out to have a murderous dark side that could easily kill all the lives he has saved. Though I would never admit it, I was scared to. Believe it or not, Sonic had helped me back on Space colony Ark. He showed me the good of life. And now here he was, hating every second of it. A loud crash from upstairs made nearly everyone jump or cry out.

Nobody's POV

Everyone cautiously looked at the stairs. Expecting a completely black hedgehog with dark grey fur to come tearing down them looking for them to kill. But no one came. The house was silent. Their expressions changed from being relieved, to being extremely worried. Though he might seem to be angry and dark he was still Sonic. He was still there friend. They went up the steps to the second floor where all the boy's rooms were. They went to the end of the hallway were a blue door was. With slight hesitation, they opened it. The lights were off and the smell of blood hit their noses. Without hesitation Amy and Tails ran in ignoring the other's protests. Broken glass was scattered everywhere from possibly a glass full of water (for there was the clear substance covering the tiny bits of glass ) simply dropped, or knocked off the night stand or something. Sonic was on the ground clutching his head and muttering words that were unclear to anyone. Had he gone mad? No, this was something... different. Without thinking Amy made her way toward the now shivering blue hedgehog. As soon as she laid her hand on him, his head snapped up to look at her. What made her and the other's gasp was that now his left eye was blood-red and his left side was completely black. One his muzzle he wore something between a devilish grin, and begging for help. When he spoke, his voice kept switching from menacing, to the shaky, real voice of Sonic the hedgehog.

Amy: S-Sonikku?

Sonic: A-AMY?! G-get out of here! ugh! NOW!

Tails: SONIC! WHAT'S WRONG!

Sonic: I-I can't control-

His sentence was interrupted as he went into a fit of both snarls, and cries of pain. His fur began to switch back and forth. Darker, lighter, darker... lighter, darker. It stayed a shade so dark you could easily mistake it for black. Now his muzzle, arms, ears, and stomach were completely dark grey with no hint of peach fur left. A menacing, chaotic laughter escaped the hedgehog's fanged mouth. He stood up and faced the group, who were somehow even more shocked at his eyes. Both were blood-red and were filled with hatred, anger, and most of all the murderous "hint" at it's full extent. Shadow and Tails stood protectively in front of the girls, who would have protested if they weren't frozen with both fear and shock.

Rouge: S-Sonic?

Though the hedgehog didn't respond. Instead the formally "sapphire" hedgehog let loose more of his bone-chilling laughter. He suddenly stopped and deviously smirked at the group. Causing a few of them to back away in fear. What was by far the most terrifying was his voice. It was no longer the cheerful, somewhat annoying, tone, but the exact opposite. It was darker, perhaps even insane.

Dark Sonic: Ah, free! Free at last!

Rouge: W-Who or w-what are you?!

Dark Sonic: Ah, you know me very well... bat. After all, you were just calling my name a second ago...

Amy: Impossible! You can't be my Sonic!

Amy's POV

I watch as this evil, cruel monster who looked like my boyfriend but yet wasn't, chuckle as he did before. His haunting laughter echoing in my head. I watched in both horror and shock as he vanished into the shadows of the unlit room. I felt his warm breath on my neck and spun around. No one was there. I turned around and he was right there behind me. I was so surprised I lost my balance and crashed to the floor. My breath was knocked from my chest and I stared a bit dazed at the dark figure. I felt his gloved finger lift up my chin. I was shocked at how cold he was... how... lifeless. My jade eyes locked onto his ruby ones. He looked at me and smiled. But not that cruel smile, the sweet, warm smile that Sonic gives me. I resisted the urge to smile back at him and mentally slapped myself. No! He's not Sonic! Stop thinking it's him! But his eyes... I was completely mesmerized by them. They were almost comforting. It was the same look Sonic gave me to calm me down if I was angry, or to reassure me. I felt myself completely lost in his gaze. When he spoke, I expected a calm, assuring voice. His voice was calm, but cold and devilish.

Dark Sonic: Stupid girl... did you ever just wonder... even for a second if this "Sonic" you love is just an actor? Ha! He never loved you. Why do you think he kept running away?

Amy: I-I... How would you know?!

Dark Sonic: Because I AM him!

I couldn't find the words to respond. He couldn't be Sonic! Could he? Before I knew it, I felt his finger leave my chin and his hand tighten around my neck. His sharp claws pierced my skin and I felt my blood dripping down my neck. I was raised from the ground. I felt my neck burning. But nothing hurt more than my heart. I felt tears well up in my eyes and my vision go blurry. He never loved me. M-My true love... hated me. I felt myself go completely numb, I couldn't... feel. Everything was blurry, and seemed to be distant, and move in slow motion. I watched as Shadow attacked him. Sonic...Bah-thump... He let go of my neck and I fell to the ground slowly and landed painlessly. Hates... Bah-thump I heard what seemed like distant shouts from Rouge and Cream as they grasped my shoulders. Me... Bah-thump Tails joined in with Shadow and the two seemed to over power the dark being, who... was once my boyfriend. Now I heard nothing. I felt dizzy. My vision went even more blurry. The last thing I saw... was his piercing red eyes. Before I closed my eyes. Sonic! Bah-thump I silently whispered in my head. I listened to my heart beats. Bah-thump,Bah-thump...Bah-thump...Bah-thump...Bah-thump, And drifted off into an endless sleep...
