Oh writers block, oh writers block, how I hate you so. Yea, I'm back! Sorry for the slight delay, I've been busy what with going back to school and all.

Anywhoo, onward!


- Black Doom's point of view

2 weeks earlier

I arose from the soft ground beneath me, doubling over instantly. A stream of blood dribbled from my mouth, each drop resulting in a small splatter on the dirt below me. My tattered robes billowed around me as I whipped around, looking for the menace that had somehow evaded me. It was then that I finally found where I was, although the result surprised even me. Around me stretched a golden field of wheat and corn, going off as far as the eye could see in any direction. I looked around the strange place, and to my excitement, saw a small black shape on a nearby hill.

I floated toward the shape, a smile filled with no happiness stretched across my face. I flicked a finger upward and Shadow was lifted in the air, twitching uncontrollably. I could have killed him right then and there. I should have. But something in my dark and twisted mind clicked, and I decided to let him live. Wherever I was, I could still have a little fun while I was here, toying with that hedgehog.

I scooped up the inhibitor rings off the ground, sliding them onto his wrists. They made a small click as they locked in place, and Shadow relaxed as his body loosened up. I stepped back, admiring the wreckage that one hedgehog could do. Chunks of smoldering metal lay smoking in random places, causing me to cringe in anger. Shadow had ruined my plans once again. But this time, I knew that this was the end. One of us would die, the other live. And I didn't plan on dying anytime soon, I knew that the one to fall would be him. It had to be. And so there I left him, awaiting for the one thing I craved most.

The ultimate battle was drawing near.


I wandered for days and nights, not knowing if there was any civilization in this strange land, or if my search was in vain. I came across roads, long dwindling roads that never seemed to end, but no one was walking along them. As I was brushing past stalks of corn, I came across something rather odd. A large circle of crops had been flattened, and now I stood in the very middle. This is where I met G.U.N.

They came from ropes that seemed to materialize from nowhere. The agents landed silently, all pointing the barrels of their guns straight at me. I whipped around, only to come face to face with a burly man, obviously the leader of this group.

"What do you want?" I hissed at him, but to my surprise the man didn't even flinch at my strange voice.

Instead, the man smiled. "You." Was his short and simple answer.

He raised his hand and at once four needles found their way into my abdomen, making me gasp in pain. Before long, I had passed out, landing in the middle of the circle. The last thing I heard was the man speaking into a small radio on his side.

"Roger that, we'll keep him alive. But just barely." The man sneered as he said this.

My lucky day.


Yes, I do realize that this chapter is extremely short. This is because now that I'm explaining the story from Black Doom's point of view, I find I know a lot less about him than Shadow. So excuse the short chapter or two in the upcoming continuation.

Please, I run on reviews! Sooo, R&R!
