Hey everyone, here's a new one! In this chapter, Blaze has a nightmare, but it has an old face in it. Who could it be?
Disclaimer: Shadow the Hedgehog 2 is being made, and will have Blaze as a playable character! No, not really. SEGA owns Shadow and characters. Shadow the Hedgehog 2 is something else...
Blaze's P.O.V
"Looks like we're evenly matched." Shadow said, trying to catch his breath.
We had raced quite a long time. Mostly to get to Central City. When we got there, Shadow decided to walk. He said Sonic's house is in Central City. I wonder why Shadow calls Sonic 'Faker'.
"How did you meet Faker?" Shadow asked.
"Well, an evil scientist that looked like my arch-enemy named Dr. Eggman stole the Sol Emeralds from me." I started, before Shadow interrupted.
"What are Sol Emeralds?"
"Sol Emeralds are jewels that grant unlimited power, similar to this world's Chaos Emeralds." I took a case containing the Sol Emeralds out and showed them to Shadow, who looked deeply at them. "I am the sole protector of them."
Shadow took out a green Chaos Emerald that had a strange insignia on it.
"I believe Sonic showed you the Chaos Emeralds, right?" He said. This is the only time I heard him say 'Sonic'.
"Yes, he showed me them. But why does this one have a strange red logo?" I asked, staring at it deeply.
My mind ached. My heart suddenly stopped. Suddenly I was surrounded in black. When I woke up, I was at Westopolis, but it was now in flames and explosions. The sound of screams from the people rang into my ears. I noticed why they were screaming. Black aliens were attacking the city. Huge ones were trashing buildings and throwing vehicles around. I noticed a group of them surrounding a taller figure. It had three eyes, two horns that looked like ears. It was also wearing robes, and had decorated chains on his neck. On one of the chains, I saw the same insignia from Shadow's Chaos Emerald. Then the figure said "Now, destroy the human race, and eliminate Shadow the Hedgehog. Failure is not an option." I heard Shadow's voice yell out, "Blaze! Blaze!" Then I woke up, but I was not there anymore. It was only a nightmare.
"Oh good, you're awake. I was saying it has a strange logo because..." He said before I cut him off.
"I had a nightmare about black creatures destroying Westopolis!" I yelled out.
Shadow then looked down, his face being dread. "You don't want to know who they are."
"Why not?" I asked. I wanted to know what Shadow was hiding.
"I don't want you hurt."
This left me speechless. It was romantic on how Shadow doesn't want me to get hurt. However, I still wanted to know.
"Now, back to Eggman. I was created by his grandfather to be the Ultimate Life-Form."
"So you're a robot?" I questioned while he was talking.
He smirked, then said in a fake robot voice, "Yes Blaze, I am a robot. I am a creation from Dr. Eggman's grandfather!"
Both of us were now laughing. As we were laughing, Shadow shifted his hand near mine. I smiled even more. Shadow then moved his hand. I tried to get it back into mine, but luckily, Shadow didn't notice.
"Of course I'm not a robot. I was created by him, along with someone else's DNA." He said, looking past me. He looked like he was lost in space.
"My creator's name was Professor Gerald Robotnik. He created me on the research facility called the Space Colony ARK. His granddaughter, Maria, was my best friend when I was created. She taught me about peace, and that violence was not the answer."
"That's sweet." I said, listening to his story and getting an image into my head.
"Life was sweet at the time. Then, GUN decided the Professor's experiments were far too dangerous for the human society, so they shut down the ARK, either taking away or killing those involved."
"That's terrible! What else happened?" I asked.
"Then, when me and Maria were trying to escape, one of them shot and killed Maria. However, she had a little bit of life left in her to send me off to Earth."
I never felt more sympathetic to Shadow. Is this what made him the emotionless being he is today?
"Shadow..."
"Don't feel sorry. I left the past behind me. I'm alright." Shadow said reassuringly.
We continued to walk, until I spotted Sonic's house. Knuckles was the first to spot us as he was leaning back on a tree, talking to Rouge and Omega. I don't really talk to those two much, because they're also in GUN with Shadow. When I do talk to them, they're okay. I get scared by Omega's remarks to either destroy Dr. Eggman, or just destructive things in general. Rouge is always talking about jewels, and sometimes asks me to give her advice on talking to Knuckles. You know, without stealing the Master Emerald.
"Hey Shadow, where did you run off to? Did Blaze calm you down, or heat you up again?" Knuckles joked, laughing his head off with Omega. Rouge stomped on Knuckles' foot, resulting in Knuckles howling in pain. Shadow chuckled.
"I ran off to my hill over at Westopolis. And yes Knuckles, she calmed me down." Shadow said.
I saw Sonic over next to Tails, Amy, and Silver. I went over to talk to him, but an red flash came up from behind. Then punched Sonic.
"I didn't appreciate that cold joke, Faker." Shadow said, emerging from the flash.
"Sorry I didn't make you laugh, Shadow." Sonic said.
"Sonic, what happened while we were gone?" I asked.
"Oh, we got done with the jobs, then did you guys' job while you were gone. Now we can call everyone and start the party tonight!"
We both said okay, then went outside to leave. Shadow got on his motorcycle and started it.
"See you at the party, Blaze!" Shadow smirked, then drove off.
"See you later, Shadow." I said.
Blaze has a nightmare about black aliens! Anyone who knows who they are, keep it to yourself or PM me if you want to guess. And Shadow's caring for Blaze a lot, since he doesn't want her to get hurt. Also, Shadow reveals his past to Blaze. MAJOR SHADAZE!
Originally, this chapter was supposed to be called "The Party". However, the idea of the black aliens struck into my mind. Blaze will reveal her past later.
And Shadow the Hedgehog 2 will be a fan-fic after I make this story. It will kinda be a sequel to this, but more of a romance/drama situation.
Finally, the Party will start! What will happen next chapter during the party? All I can say is a certain someone is going to ask another certain someone out on a date. Who could it be? If you know who, take a guess by PMing me!
Until then, I have Macaroni and Cheese! Seriously!
