Protection, And Family: The Sonadow Sequel
Chapter 4:
"I've been here three days. Shadow this is horrible, so I'm comming home."
"-Onic...it's...you...stay..." (Sonic don't come home. It's fine over here. You should stay.)
"Shadow speak up. The reception out here is terrible! Can you even hear me at all?"
"Yes -onic...hear you. I'm -eaking...oud as I can...waking Sara."(Yes Sonic, I can hear you. I'm speaking as loud as I can without waking Sara.)
"I see...look Shadow, that letter was a complete lie. The plane landing was rickity, no one knows where they are, and my guide is terribly creepy...I want to come home."
"...I under-and -onic,...r-... but you need a -reak from work. Plus Sara's -etting along great. I think -e've fin-lly -onded...-omewhat (...I understand Sonic, really! But you need a break from work. Plus Sara's getting along great. I think we've finally bonded...somewhat.)
"That's fantastic Shadow! I'm proud. But I really miss you two, so you aren't going to persuade me to stay."
A sigh is faintly heard on the other end of the phone.
"Oh quiet. You miss me too, admit it." Sonic teases, smiling a bit
"...I -ss ou..." Is Shadow's crackly reply (He said, 'I miss you')
"Hehe, hang on Shads, I'll be home by tomarrow evening." Sonic says, before closing his cell-phone and sighing, turning and heading back to the airport, only to find nothing but an empty lot. "What?" he asks himself, running all around the area to find the airport to be completely gone. "Please please tell me I don't have to run all the way home..." the cranky cobalt exhasperates, taking off at break-neck speed for a motel.
O-O
Ring! Ring! Ring!
"Hello?" answers a sleepy Shadow the Hedgehog at 3:30 AM.
"I know Sonic is gone. And soon you will be too, Shadow the Hedgehog, Ultamite Lifeform." rasps a very squeaky voice from the other end
"...Who is this?" Shadow asks, now fully awake and very curious. "If this is a prank, I swear I will-"
"I assure you, it is no prank Shadow." the voice cuts in. "Tomarrow morning Sonic will be home, but you and your child will be long gone. Unless you think you can stop me..." it continues
"How did you-...Sonic isn't comming home until tomarrow night." Shadow recalls, his ear flicking slightly. "Who are you? Tell me now." he demands
"You will know my name soon enough, Ultamite Lifeform." is the squeaky reply, followed by a hideous laugh
"Why do you keep calling me that? Stay the hell away from me and my family alright? Or else you'll end up losing your creepy voice altogether!" the ebony hedgehog threatens, before abruptly hanging up and walking back upstairs, taking Sara into his room that night.
O-O
"Shadow! Sara! I'm home!" the exhausted blue colbalt says, plopping his way upstairs and opening the door to his and Shadow's bedroom, to find said ebony to be gone. "Hm?"
After searching the house, Sonic finds himself to be completely alone. Not even Sara is home!
"Eh, I shouldn't worry. Shadow probably took her out to eat. Though they could've cleaned up a little bit...this ketchup is pretty crusty." he says, plopping down on the couch and looking at the big blotch of what looks ike ketchup on the table and floor. Though after inspecting it closer, Sonic finds it to be something that made him wish dearly that it WAS ketchup.
"...Blood? Shadow! Sara! Where are you!" Sonic suddenly starts to call, frantically searching the house and streets for his family. "Shadooooow! Saraaaaaa!" he shouts
O-O
"I'll ask you again. Where is my child!" demands an angry Shadow, pinning a zombie-looking stranger to a wall by his throat, bearing his canines and growling deeply
"And I'll reply again, I don't know!" squeals the zombie stranger, beads of sweat rolling down his neck. "My master has her somewhere here! That's all I know!" he rasps
Shadow just growls again, throwing the man to the floor and storming out of the room to look for said 'master'.
He enters another room to find the only source of light to be a tiny red speck in the midle of the small space. Slowly the ebony nears it, suddenly becomming blinded by a wave of red. And then he was out cold on the concrete floor, his appearence completely changed. Shadow the hedgehog looked demonic, and that was a very bad thing, considering what was about to come...
To be continued...
Short chapter I know, but I really don't feel like typing any longer!
My dad died, so that's why this seems so low key and bad.
Can't really even believe I'm on right now.
So...later I guess.
