After I got back home, I sat Tails on his bed, Knuckles on mine, and Shadow on the couch. Then I went in my room to get a pair of gloves that aren't blood covered. As I was slipping on a fresh pair of gloves, I walked into the living room to see Shadow awake. He was watching Television as if nothing ever happened. I looked at the television, and saw Shadow had tuned into a death metal concert. Usually I would shut off the Tv, but….I found the Music good this time around. I actually caught myself starting to tap my leg to the beat. I had no idea Dark Sonic was so much like Shadow, then again this is the first time I was actually living as him, When I battled with him I never really stopped to notice my taste have changed.
(Shadow's P.O.V)
I was enjoying the music, but I felt like someone was behind me.. I looked back, and to my surprise I saw Sonic. I thought he would yell at me for turning on death metal, but he was just staring at the television. Was Sonic enjoying this music? I saw he was sitting down on a stool, at a table. I saw under the table his finger was tapping to the beat. Sonic was enjoying death metal?!
"Well faker, It's about time you changed your tastes." I said. Sonic looked at me with shock
"How long have I been sitting here?" He asked. I thought for a moment.
"Let's see, You walked in five minutes after this started, and it's just ending, so around two hours." I said
"Two hours?!" Exclaimed Sonic. "I didn't even realise I was sitting here for that long."
"That will happen when you're listening to good music." I said.
"I'm going on a run, see you later faker." Said Sonic
"Don't kill anyone." I said, smirking. He gave me a cold stare, and it seems to become more intense when a slight smoky aura came around Sonic. As if Sonic noticed the aura, he took a deep breath, making the aura disappear. He walked out the door, and slammed it behind him. Obviously I struck a nerve.
(Sonic's P.O.V)
I ran as fast as I could. Not stopping, not looking back. As I was running through the thick forest near town, images started popping into my head, images from another life i didn't have. It brought pain, Major pain, like migraine times five. What was wrong with me? I ran even faster, breaking the sound barrier in the process, These fake memories just keep invading my head, giving me a fake past and a fake name. With every false memory received, I go faster. It's propelling me forward, like it's leading me somewhere. That's when it hit me.
"Robots! Activate plan B!" Shouted Eggman.
"Plan B?" I asked, then I felt something stab into my arm
"He isn't Sonic anymore Shadow….He is Dusk now!" Said Eggman.
I came skidding to a hault. THIS was plan B. Plan B was to change me entirely, and I'm not sure how much longer I got. I looked around to see where i ended up. Lush trees, tall grass, I was at some kind of cliff. I looked down, to see some loops. The grass was light green with dark green stripes, the dirt had an brown and orange checker pattern, I was in Green Hill Zone.
"Why would Eggman bring me here?" I asked myself. I looked around, all saw was the beautiful scenery of Green HIll Zone. I ran home as quickly as I could, hoping Tails was awake. He'd be able to figure out how to stop "Plan B". I ran straight into the house, and made it half way up the stairs before everything faded to black.
(Tails' P.O.V)
I woke up, and looked around. I got moved to my room.
How did I ge- My thoughts were interrupted by a crashing noise coming from the steps. I quickly hopped off my bed and ran into the hallway. I looked at the steps and gasped. Sonic had rolled down the steps because he fell unconscious. I saw Shadow staring at Sonic, and Knuckles tiredly walk up to me, still half asleep.
"What was that noise?" Asked Knuckles
"Sonic falling down the steps." Said Shadow. I stood there for one more moment, before taking action. I picked up Sonic, and started running to the lab. Knuckles and Shadow followed close by. Once I was in the lab,I laid Sonic on a table. I ran over to my chemistry set and began work.
"So, what's going on with the faker?" Asked Shadow
"That electrical current was rewriting his memories in his head." I said as I worked. "And unless we do something soon, we'll lose the Sonic we knew and won't be able to get him back very now, all his real memories have been removed, so if we're lucky, he may just end up with amnesia." The lab fell dead silent. It was that way for one hour.
"FInished!" I exclaimed, breaking the silence. I held up a sapphire blue chemical. I put the chemical in a syringe, and walked over to Sonic. His eyes were squinted shut, and sweating while unconscious. I injected the serum into him, and by the looks of it that eased the pain a bit. I picked him up again, and laid him on his bed.
"Now we Wait, and hope for the best." I said.
