Chapter 2: Wrecking Havoc

Deep inside Eggman's former base, a black hedgehog stood looking at all the equipment in the lab. Sonic grinned evilly, knowing that he could use these for his new evil plan. He growled angrily and punched the wall, breaking it.

"Shadow should have never taken the Chaos Emeralds; I need those to complete my plans! No matter; I'll take them eventually. No doubt G.U.N will keep looking for me, but I can't lay low forever. I think it's time to cause some mayhem upon the unsuspecting city. I've nearly destroyed Station Square anyway."

He let out an evil laugh as he sped out of the building and into the city, ready to cause more havoc. Unbenounced to him, two red eyes gleamed out from a hiding place near the base. Shadow walked out into the street, watching as the evil hedgehog ran towards his destination.

"I've finally found him," Shadow said, and ran after Sonic, eager to confront him once again.


Sonic stopped in Station Square and saw some people walking around. He laughed and immediately raised his hands, sending a huge blast of energy towards them. The humans screamed as the blast engulfed them instantly and exploded. When it faded, no one could be seen. Sonic immediately sent more dark energy balls into buildings, shattering them upon impact. Smoke and fires started, sending buildings toppling to the ground. Sonic grinned and hovered in the air, surveying the damage. He chuckled and formed massive amounts of power around him, causing his dark aura to increase. A ripple of energy surrounded him and then rippled outwards, sending shock waves across the city. The explosion was so massive it caused buildings to disintegrate and vanish instantly.

Sonic landed and looked around, surveying the damage. He chuckled and the laughed maniacally. Suddenly, he was knocked to the ground as Shadow the Hedgehog slammed his feet into Sonic's back. Sonic got up and looked at Shadow, an expression of anger forming on his face.

"So, decided to face me once again? You should know by now that it is pointless to defeat me! I have become stronger than you now."

Shadow said nothing and brought his fist down into Sonic's chest. The evil hedgehog flinched a little but stood his ground. Suddenly in a flash, Sonic ran up to Shadow and kicked him so hard that Shadow doubled over in pain. Shadow staggered to his feet and yelled, throwing another punch but Sonic blocked it in his hand and twisted Shadow's arm violently. The black hedgehog screamed in pain as he heard bones crack and fell to his knees in agony, clutching his arm.

"You...you broke my arm!" Shadow hissed.

Sonic walked up to him. "Have you had enough? Or do you want to continue this fight?"

Shadow growled and got to his feet, breathing hard. "You may have won this time...but I will defeat you one day!"

"I don't think so," Sonic told him. "You see, I've come up with a plan so foolproof that you and your friends will never be able to stop me."

"What is it?"

"You'll find out in time, faker. You'll never see it coming."

Sonic sped off, leaving Shadow in a state of confusion. Shadow stared after him for a few minutes then got up and skated off to his house, wondering what he was going to tell the others.
