And, we're back!
With school, and basic stuff, I may not be able to update as much as I'd like.
But I know most, if not all, of you are in the same boat as me.
So, to brighten up your busy school days, I will do my darndest to get these chapters up quickly.
And now to the fic! I do not own Sonic, blah blah blah, Shadow POV (Just so you don't forget!)
ALSO! In this chapter I shall at last reveal WHY THIS FIC IS NAMED CROSS-WISE!
But forget my ranting, onward troops!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Having Sonic to talk to was nice. It gave me something to do besides examine my
rather unpleasant memories. Unfortunately, I think I really freaked him out that night with
my nightmare. But, nightmares aside, he was able to give me an update of things happening
in the outside world, and how he'd found me. Apparently, he had received an anonymous tip
in the mail about the GUN fortress's location. It had said to tell no one, but before he
left Sonic had shown it to Tails and told not to tell anyone unless he didn't come home in
two days. It was three days after Sonic's capture when Vox came again. He ordered the
scientists away for the rest of the day, and stood in front of us. [Who's baldy?] [The guy
in charge. Vox.] Vox sneered. "At last we meet, Sonic the Hedgehog. I am General Vox,
Commander in Chief of the GUN Organization. I speak with you now to assure you that your
captivity is nothing personal. We merely required more data for our work. Our Project
would never have been the success it has been without your presence. Of course, I speak of
Project Cross. As you can see, we only intended to use Project Shadow-" he gestured to me
and I made a snarling sound in the back of my throat, "-But due to the insufficient data it
gave us, you were required. I hope you understand." With one final sneer, he marched out
and we were alone.
I then began franticly trying to get out, not caring whether the nanos were active
or not. I had to get out! [Shadow! What are you doing?] [I have to stop him! He has no
idea what's done!] [Is this about Project Cross? What is it?] I sighed. [You know I was
Project Shadow, and the Biolizard was Project Biolizard, right?] [Yeah, so?] [The good
doctor had one final Project he never got to complete. Project Cross. I found the file
once. It involves crossing his two 'ultimate life' projects to create something that truly
was the ultimate being.] [Oh, man. Did he ever do it?] [No. He made a test egg of it,
but the thing's DNA was too unstable for it to develop. And there wasn't enough DNA samples
to run a comparative study. That's where you come in.] [Oh shit. And Vox wants to use
Project Cross to control the world, right?] [Yeah, but that's where he's miscalculated.
With the Biolizard's DNA, Project Cross is doomed to a similar fate. It'll go insane and
try to destroy everything around it. It won't care if it destroys it's own creators or
not.] I had to get out now! As my brain focused on that one fact, I felt myself begin to
glow slightly. [Uh, Shadow? What are you doing?] [I don't have the faintest- wait!] I
mentally slapped myself. I concentrated on being outside and free as much as possible and I
glowed brightly and suddenly I was out. "Hraugh!" I vomited up some of the green fluid I
didn't know I had swallowed. [What just happened?!?] "I think the Chaos Emerald Chaos
Controlled by itself. Try concentrating as hard as you can." Sonic tried, and he glowed
and appeared on the floor next to me. He threw up the fluid too. "Hey, I can move! Man,
that stuff's nasty." I stretched. "I think we just got rid of the nanoprobes. Now, lets
get out of here." Our Emeralds appeared with a flash. "Why not?" He said with a shrug.
"Chaos Control!" We shouted together and were gone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And the plot moves forward! By the way, I don't know if Chaos Emeralds can do anything I have mentioned or will be mentioning in future chapters.
I've been told that no one knows everything they can do. Is the same true of the Master Emerald? *GASP* Oh no, a spoiler!
Heh heh, Review why don't ya!
