Om nom nom nom om nom nom...
Oh yeah, that fight with Sonic was interesting, huh? My neck is healing.
I'm worried playing 'Jump Around' was like mocking him. What would I do if he killed Destiny?
Om, nom...
Maybe Shadow can help. Until then, Merry Christmas-so-far!
Chapter 4Shadow woke up, but refused to open his eyes. He was terrified he would wake up in that G.U.N holding cell again.
After a while he accepted that he couldn't stay like that forever, and opened one eye slowly, followed shortly than the other. He was in a room, red paint on the walls along with half of posters of Sonic that looked like they had be torn off.
Spark was sat in the corner munching away on a piece of toast with Destiny next to him. She was talking to Amy, who was the first to notice Shadow wake up. She walked over to him slowly, for she knew his vision was blurry, and good lord it was.
Shadow looked at Amy as his senses (and memory) returned to him. He had been walking to Amy's house to ask her a very important question when there was a sudden, screaming pain in his leg and he had passed out into the cold snow.
Then his nerve signals kicked in and then pain in his leg was finally realized by his brain. It was excruciating, to say the least. The sudden pain made him sit straight up, pushing the pain further. He was close to yelling, but he grabbed his leg and held it tight. Within an instant Spark had finished his toast and was by his bedside.
"Hey, hey." Spark said, "I can make it better."
"H-how?" Shadow groaned.
"It'll hurt," Spark replied, "But definitely work."
Spark put the palm of his hand on Shadow's wound.
"You ready?"
"Depends what for."
"Good enough for me."
Spark ran a weak electric shock into Shadow's leg that stung at his nerve signals. Shadow let out a bloodcurdling yell and gritted his teeth as Spark let go. The skin around the wound forged in and covered it up.
"Your nervous system won't be able to detect pain in your leg for the next 30 minutes." Spark said proudly.
For once, Spark was right. Shadow pressed on the wound and felt nothing.
"Poor Shaddie. What would lead Sonic to do that?" Amy said, looking straight at Shadow's eyes.
"Don't you worry, hun." Destiny said to Amy, "My Spark will protect us, right?"
"If he lays a finger on either of you," Spark said, "I'll play the opening theme to 'Happy Tree Friends' in his ear for the rest of eternity."
"See?" Destiny said, "Spark is prepared to commit to the worst kind of torture for us."
Amy couldn't help but laugh off some of the tears.
Shadow got up and felt is head. He had the strangest headache.
It was then he realized he couldn't remember what he planned to ask Amy.
Wasn't it something about... Mistletoe?
"Whoa, whoa." Spark said, pushing Shadow onto the bed, "You need rest, mister."
"Are we not forgetting about your injuries, Spark? The neck?"
"No, we aren't. But I've got a pregnant lady and a love depleted lady to protect."
Spark turned and walked with Destiny out of the room, hand-in-hand.
Leaving Amy and Shadow alone.
"So.. Shadow..."
"Yeah?"
"Why were you headed for my house in the first place?"
"I needed to tell you something, but I can't remember what it was."
"I feel like... It's somehow my fault."
"Don't think that, Amy."
"But you were coming to MY house. I'm to blame."
She put her head in her hands and started to cry. Shadow sat up and held her head up with his hand.
"Everything will work out," He said, "I promise."
"No, it can't..."
"Amy," He said, running his hand down her cheek, "Everything will right itself, I promise with all my heart."
Amy Rose smiled, tears still halfway down her cheeks.
