K is for Kill

He swore he wouldn't do it. He swore only to the blue one that he'd never kill anyone again but…as much as he loved the guy, he hated him at the moment and seriously wanted to kill him. What pissed him off to that point? Well, let's backtrack a bit. From the start of the day he took his daily walk through hell- sorry. He went to work at G.U.N. which clearly signifies that his small chance of optimism was screwed. Upon returning home, Sonic pointedly avoided him to the point Shadow nearly questioned of he himself reeked of something or what to have the other stay away like that… That was at least the case…until he got to the garage…

"FAAAAAKEEEEER!"

"Oh damn…" the apparent faker winced inside his own room, knowing full well that the other had just found the problem. Right as he got to the door he was cut off by a streak a red that now formed into the pissed off hedgehog that is Shadow. "Knew I shoulda took the window…"

"What the hell happened?" he growled out, glaring an unholy fire into Sonic.

"It wasn't me…"

"I asked, what the hell happened. Not if you did it…"

"Well…when you were gone, um…we had visitors!" he smiled weakly. That only seemed to make the other angrier.

"…how many times have I told you not to let your friends in this house?" he ground out, causing Sonic's ears to flatten. At this point Shadow's fists were balled up and ready to punch something…he was refraining from picking the blue and peach target in front of him…

"Well, they forced their way in here and started goofing off…I couldn't help it…"

"They-…" now that he said that, the color that was painted on it made more since now… "…let me guess….the Chaotix decided to pay you an unwelcomed visit…"

"Yea-wait, how'd you know?" he blinked, raising an eye-ridge at the other. Slowly, the ebony was starting to redirect his anger to someone else.

"So…tell me…what were you doing when Charmy managed to get into the garage?"

"Trying to find Espio…I got Vector out easily but Esp went all ghost on me…when I found him, your bike was already a bumblebee on wheels." A sudden eye twitch came from that comment. "Um…Shadow?" The called hedgehog looked back only out of slight curiosity of the use of his actual name instead of the usual 'Shads'. "…do I have to remind you of something?"

"…like what? And could you make it quick? I just remembered I have to be somewhere…"

"Manslaughter is illegal…you know that right?"

"Of course. Your point is?" he scoffed, turning away from the other to face the door.

"Although we are sapients…it still counts…you know that too right?"

"Yes…" the calmness in Shadow's voice was slightly unnerving him, as you could tell from the pitch in his voice slightly rising with every question.

"Child murder is extremely looked down at…right?"

"Yes."

"…"

"Is that all? I really do have to be going…"

"…you promised you wouldn't kill anyone else…you promised Maria…" he threw in that last part, knowing he was pushing it but he figured it might just have been needed…

"Sonic…"

"Y-yes?" he stammered, slightly frightened at the hedgehog turning to face him. He had nothing less than a smile on his face. That was not normal nor expected.

"I never said I'd kill them…I'm just gonna pay them a visit and beat them all senseless while I'm there…that should teach them something…"

"Along the lines of 'fear', yeah! Shadow!"

"If you warn them, I'll come back and get you too…"

"…" that statement would've been just fine if he wasn't smiling. Sonic knew never to question that smile. Whenever it was there, death almost always followed…or something bad at the least. Before he noticed, Shadow was out the door along with the ringing of a sonic boom in his ears. "…they are so screwed…"

A/N: lol sorry XDD idk why I did this…I got bored, that's for sure. But just know the Chaotix didn't die…they were hospitalized for a month due to mass injuries, lacerations, bullet burns and traumatization (lol jk). Gah! Trying to write lately has slight infuriated me…it won't flow like usual ;m; someone help me…
