"Project Shadow, come quietly and we won't hurt you! You are being decommissioned and sold to a wealthy businessman as an exotic pet." a G.U.N. Sargent says as he and a small squad of G.U.N. soldiers surround the black and red hedgehog.
"Give my regards to the General. I've grown tired of serving him anyway." Shadow says as he starts to Chaos Control. Before he can even raise his hand, the entire squad fires on him. As he vanishes, he finds that he has been shot full of darts.
Standing in a snow covered pine forest, he pulls them out, he begins to feel more and more tired, so he stops that and tries to walk, not caring where he winds up.
Eventually he collapses in the snow, right on the edge of a small town.
A kid and his family eventually find him and take him home.
