Here is chapter four of Shaded Secrets, and only one person guessed, but got it really close, but it was unfortunately wrong :(
I will give hints so you people can guess. If you think it is something, also explain a little bit so I know why you chose it.
Hint: the creature is a blood creature.
Disclaimer: I only own Shade and the plot
Enjoy!
Shadow's point of view:
I stood in the professor's lab, waiting for him so we could begin on the other life form. It was going to be called 'Project: Shade', and it will be called 'Shade' (don't ask me why).
As if on cue, the professor walked into the lab.
"Hello Shadow. I have the creature's DNA, so we can get started on the life form." The professor greeted, pulling out a test tube filled with some crimson red liquid.
He walked over to a similar machine that I was in when I was created, and put the DNA in a small box. The DNA seemed to inject into the machine.
I turned to the professor, confused.
"The DNA can form into another being, and once the limp being is formed, I inject it with the same substance I put into you. It then lives properly, and then once it has fully formed, I release it, but I want you to release it as it will be a match to your strength." The professor explained.
"Sure." I nodded.
"In the meantime, I wish to help you harness your Chaos abilities, and enhance your ability." The professor suggested.
"Sure, then I can teach Project: Shade." I smirked.
"Yes... Now, do you ever wonder why we don't go to Earth?" The professor asked me.
"Yes... I do sometimes." I looked at the professor.
"Well, when Maria was born, her parents died, leaving her in my care. And we soon discovered that she had an awful disease: NIDS. Maria and I were sent up to space on this creation of mine: Space Colony: Ark. It is the second biggest satellite the Earth has, the Moon being the biggest." The professor explained gravely, and I could of sworn that I saw a tear in his eye.
"That is were you come in, Shadow. You are immortal, and invincible to all diseases I'm aware of." The professor added.
"Wait... Will Maria die from this disease?" I inquired.
"She will eventually." The professor sulked.
"What about it me and Project: Shade are successful... Could you make a body for Maria so she can live normally?" I asked, concerned for my best and only friend.
"I could... But it could take years..." The professor shrugged.
"And if something happens, I'll try my best to guard her until her body is fully formed, and she can look after herself." I vowed as I looked the professor in the eye.
"I am grateful by your concern for my granddaughter, but let's just get some training done." The professor said quickly.
"Somethings not right with him... He's hiding something." I thought to myself as I followed the professor out of his lab.
I walked into a huge white and green room, and in the centre, there was a glowing green gem.
"That there Shadow, is a Chaos Emerald. I got some scientists to collect one for me. Pick it up and see what happens." The professor told me.
I walked over to the glowing green gem and picked it up. I felt a sudden rush of energy, so I dropped it.
"Well done. Now, put on the simulator suit that should appear right about... Now." The professor said and a metal suit appeared.
I rolled my eyes and put it on.
I extended my hand and a spear of green energy erupted from my fingers, hitting a nearby wall. Loads of dummies appeared, so I jumped up, and thought of a name for my new Chaos attack.
"CHAOS... SPEAR." I bellowed as I swung my arm a whole 180 degrees. A barrage of Chaos Spears left my hand, destroying the army of dummies.
I landed on the ground, smirking at my triumph. I then felt red energy surround me.
"CHAOS... BLAST!" I bellowed, and multiple blasts of Chaos energy erupted around me, knocking away the scraps of the dummies.
I smirked as I saw the destruction around me. I picked up the Chaos Emerald and I felt my energy rush back into me.
"Well done Shadow! Now, Chaos Emeralds have been believed to of been used by the gods to cross dimensions, so try to manipulate time and space." The professor explained.
I raised my hand with the Chaos Emerald in and thought of Maria's room. I vanished in a flash of green light and I then reappeared in Maria's room, where I saw the girl sleeping. Well, she was sleeping as she now was wide awake looking at me.
"Sorry." I apologised quickly and I teleported back to the room, right behind the professor.
"CHAOS... CONTROL!" I shouted as I appeared in front of the professor, causing him to jump in fright.
"Don't do that!" He gasped, causing me to chuckle.
"Am I done yet?" I asked.
"Yes. In at least a few weeks we shall continue training, so can you please hand be the Chaos Emerald." The professor said. "I must go and check on Project: Shade." He added as he walked away, leaving me in the room.
"What is he hiding from me?" I wondered as I walked out of the room to find Maria.
And I am done with chapter 4! And if none of you know, I am already planning 'Shadow the Hedgehog 2'. It will be started when I can, but I am planning on rewriting Sonic Origins 1, 2 and 3, and probably going to change their names too.
Other than that, guess who the creature within the Master Emerald is; and Read and Review! The Prince Of Souls is out to hunt for souls!
