Chapter 11
The cell Sonic paced in was cold. That was how he could describe it. Almost like you were placed in the medieval times except you don't have an Iron Maiden, a thumb screw, or a sado-masacist in a black mask wanting to chop your head off. He had a sink, a WC, a bed, and a desk which he had no idea why there was a desk in his cell when he saw none in the other cells while he was being brought in by the two guards and Shadow. The walk over here was quiet and uneventful unless you count the belching the guards were doing along the way which made the air around Sonic smell like pickles and donuts. When they reached the cell, Shadow unlocked the gate with hast which caused him to miss the lock a few times before making the insertion and opening the door of the cell which the guards pushed Sonic in and Shadow slowly closed the door and he mumbled a few words to Sonic shallow enough for the guards not to hear. "Stay awake." was all he said before the gated door closed completely shut and locked. Shadow handed the keys to one of the guards and told him that he was on guard duty tonight. But the guard's answer was,
"But I'm too tired." Shadow made a face that seemed to be too dramatic to be annoyed.
"You are going on guard duty you won't even have to do the walk you can just fall asleep in the chair!"
The two guards just walked down the hall and Shadow turned to Sonic. He stared at him for a few seconds until hr too exited. The moment Sonic heard the gate at the end of the hall slam shut he sat down on the chair at the desk to start thinking about what he would do but he couldn't think of anything. The hours ticked by and all he could think about was what Shadow said, "Stay awake." it echoed in his mind like a hammer striking metal.
So now,Sonic was alone with only the light to help him see. But as the hours went by, the moon itself started to shine through the window adding a white glow to the cell like a transparant sheet that made the dust particles visible and seemed to dance to and fro in an endless cycle till it ether leaves the light or falls to the ground. Sonic was pondering. He really ever just stopped and pondered about himself and others or the past of even the future. But this was one of thoughs rare times he does so.
Mostly, he thought about the two tailed fox that was part of what got him landed here. What really got him was her sparkling blue eyes. Like the sea. That's what Sonic remembered most about the fox, not the two tails.
"How long are you gonna just sit there and stare off into space?" A deep voice questioned Sonic who quickly looked up to see non other than Shadow.
"What are you doing here?"
"Nothin', just talking."
"I don't wanna right now." Turning around away from Shadow.
"Trying to figure out an escape?" Sonic's head quickly looked at Shadow. "You aren't that sneaky with your expressions."
"So! How can you stop someone going faster then the speed of sound?"
"Because I can still keep up with you. Remember, I am the Ultimite Lifeform," Suddenly, Shadow whips out a blue crystol of some sorts and gives his usual smirk. "I would step back if I were you."
Sonic gave the most stupid, yet confused look he had wet to give. "What are you going to do with that hunk of rock?"
"I will show you." Was all he said before he yelled, "CHAOS SPIER!" and suddenly, bolts of something that looked like lightning, at the bars and they just exploded with a titanic roar.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!" Sonic yelled as he tried to stand but the shock wave made his joints turn to jelly. Shadow held up the crystal and Sonic covered his head expecting another blast but Shadow just answered,
"This is called a Chaos Emerald. Just having one give you infiident power but only for a short time because one's body can't handle that much power. It belongs with six others and if you bring them all together, a miricle is suppost to happen."
"A miricle? I don't believe it."
Shadow just laughed in his throut.
"Come one, you don't wanna stay here, do you?" He asked while turning and walking away.
"Why are you breaking me out?" Sonic asked after he caught up.
"Because, I know you're innocent." Was all Shadow answered.
