For things that were, things that weren't, as Shadow and Rouge unintentionally start something new.

"I'm empty. I spent it all." Sometimes cowardice looks a lot like courage.

The cost of affection.

In the dusted plains of the Wild West, Shadow the hedgehog wanders without purpose or past. Crushed beneath the tyranny of Robotnik and Metal Sonic, Westown faces daily terror and death, and a drunken, tired Sonic the hedgehog does nothing. When the mysterious stranger crosses paths with the town-drunk, the people know that all hell is about to break loose.

For him, she'd fight.

They couldn't call it a mistake.

Sometimes, people don't choose.

When cruelty looks like kindness.

After a mission to foil Robotnik's plans goes VERY wrong, Sonic and Tails find themselves in a strange new world, full of fascinating creatures...and kids calling themselves "trainers" hell-bent on capturing our heroes! But to get back home, they may need their help - which would be a LOT easier if they even spoke their language...(semi-Xover, no Pokémon knowledge necessary :)

At least they had each other.

He can outrun a missile. He can shoot a man at 100 paces. He just can't do calculus...In a world where Shadow, Maria and Gerald survived the ARK massacre, the Ultimate Lifeform now struggles to get used to ordinary life. Only people at his new school are clearly insane, the local hero 'Sonic' as well, and *someone* might still be after his family -welcome to the Robotnik household!

They have know each other as enemies, rivals, and eventually companions, but over time even the best of friends can forget that which brought them together. When a strange situation arises that may threaten Angel Island and its Guardian, can Sonic convince the echidna to trust in a friendship that was once strong, or will Knuckles insist on dealing with the situation alone.

The venom on her lips. Their bittersweet end.

Happy or sad.

Sometimes, words themselves are unnecessary.

Everyone wants to have their dreams come true, right? Well, in Shadow's case, them becoming real may cause his reality to morph into a living nightmare. His life was already hard enough with one Sonic, but now that another annoying speedster and a crafty chameleon had been added to the mix, slipping into another coma sounded less like a bad idea to him.

Werewolves. They were nothing but fantasy. They didn't exist separate from the intricate words written down on a page, or from the oral folklore that would leave children guessing at the world around them. There was no reason for Shadow to believe otherwise. Well...until he hit one with his car. Rated M for language and violence.

After reflecting upon her life, she might want a bigger slice.

Sonic was just an average fifteen year old dealing with school, bullies, homework, and the subject of his own death. No big deal. /A serious look at the high school AU/

The tide of Chaos is coming. Everyone is doomed unless Sonic and his friends destroy the source of their powers. Fear the emerald in the sky, for it feeds the monster inside you.

"You can't say we didn't try."

A mutually abusive relationship. This is just a warning.

Post-Unleashed. The Curse of the Werehog is over - or so Sonic had thought. But when the sun is eclipsed from the sky by a comet and Shadow undergoes a violent transformation of his own, the two heroes will now have to work together to save the world...

Greatness, in many labels. [P3S]

In a world conquered by Robotnik, living is a rebellion in and of itself. Marked for death after the slaughter of their village, Sonic and Tails struggle to survive on the streets of Robotropolis. The resistance offers sanctuary and retribution, but only if they can find them and stay alive in the meantime. One day, one step, one breath at a time. /Alternate Underground Origin/

"You're only a child once." One-shot.

At a price, an endless source of warmth. [P3S]

Those forecasts were never accurate, anyways. [P3S]

I'll do right by you. I'll try. [P3S]

No greater good. No just cause. United in body and soul, a pair of daring heroes battle a phantom from their momentous past. The turning wheel of fate drives them forward. This is the beginning of revolution. [P3S]

I can sing for you. Just ask. [P3S]

It feels like home, more than anything. [P3S]

It's okay to share a glass or two. [P3S]

Nothing abstract about it. [P3S]

No roaming charges. [P3S]

Lather for 20 seconds or more. [P3S]

Surprise! Maria is alive, and Shadow has to come to terms with the fact that she has been living her life fully for the past 50 years while he was stuck in suspended animation. Can Shadow reconnect with his old friend? But a haunting darkness is terroizing Maria... Will the power of the Chaos Emeralds be enough, or will our anti-hero have to look to greater means?

More than you thought, less than you knew. [P3S]

EDITED. Sonic tries to use Chaos Control without a Chaos Emerald. Of course, something has to go wrong. He gets transported into another reality that is not that different from his own. However, he is not aware of this fact and neither are the people of this world... [complicated Sonadow]

Here we are again. Same as always. [P3S]

You shouldn't have, but you did anyway.

She loves him. And he loves her. [Shadow x Rouge]. oneshot.

Die, dance, discover. You're guaranteed sharp for life.

And then there's nothing left to run from but time. Against all odds they had escaped their fate, but at what cost? Maria was dying, and not even the solace of Earth could fix that.

And it was enough.

Somebody's dying and they can't help but throw around their final thoughts.

Some scars never heal. The Space Colony ARK has a way of making sure of that. Maybe it's a good thing G.U.N raided the place.

Road Saga: Trapped in an ever changing world that belongs mostly to humans, Sonic makes his way with the one of the few real friend he's made. It doesn't really matter to him if he can't remember how he got on this road. He's here and the path ahead seems to have no end of possibilities.

After Rouge has mysteriously gone missing, Shadow sets foot to find her only to find himself trapped in a world where his inner demons and nightmares come to life. Would he ever make it out alive and find her or would he end up trapped in that world forever? (AU fanfiction) (Rated M for language, violence, gore, suggestive themes, etc.)

What if Shadow were indestructible, as well as immortal?

Shadow had never been so confused in his life. Tails painfully shy? Knuckles apathetic toward the Master Emerald? Sonic...less pleasurable to be around than normal? Shadow expected a lot of things waking up from his concussion induced sleep...this was not one of them. Rated T for language.

A contemplation of humans and monsters, Death and Life.

The whole issue of "I might wake up from a horrible nightmare and tear out my fur until I bleed or otherwise become violent toward myself and/or anything in the same vicinity as me in a panicked and partly unconscious state" is only one reason among many for why Shadow doesn't want to share a tent with Sonic.

When you've been built on a foundation of power and high expectations, how painful will the fall off that pedestal be? Will you ever move or speak again? TEMPORARY HIATUS

A Shadouge (romantic or platonic) One-Shot: Sometimes, when things are cold and dark, you just need a good friend to come alongside to add a bit of warmth.

Evil doppelgangers of Sonic and Shadow are on the loose, forcing two rivals to overcome impossible odds to save their friends and themselves. With a mysterious villain determined to drive them to madness, they must form a connection greater than anything they could have imagined in order to survive. [Sonadow]

Escape. A dream as old as time; a whisper echoed through space. But for these two friends, their getaway is about to get complicated. A murder, the military, and suddenly Maria's world is turned upside-down.

A lot can happen in thirty days, especially in this agency. Every day, it falls deeper and deeper into the mysteries and horrors of the webs of its past and the rising threats of the present...and here I am to write about it all in the midst of the elite. Here I fall...and so will they.

You are in a loop, Shadow. A purposeless loop, and it's all on display, just like those bottles up there. We drink to forget, you see. But you? You're the reason why we drink.

Even the ultimate life form can become addicted. Can overdose. The question is, who will be there to pick him up when he finally falls down?

I am dead.

Come closer, Shadow. You worry me so. Don't you envy my life behind the glass? Compared to yours, it does surpass. Become the shadow of my shade, rusted tool. Learn what it's like to be played the fool.

Someone has died and Sonic finds himself unable to pick up the pieces. But when Mobius has already given up on its hero, Shadow drops in from a storm, intent on finding out whether there isn't a bit of spirit left. To coax Sonic out of his shell, the black hedgehog starts to tell him about his past...and what REALLY happened aboard the ARK. Shadow's childhood, now COMPLETE.

Don't look at me like this. I'm not that useless, I just... have this one tiny flaw in me. What do you think it feels like, being unable to tell memories from reality? I wish I didn't know, too.

Sequel:Not all of Apophis is gone,forcing Ryou and his friends to flee.Accompanied by a reluctant Minkah,they find there are things about the Egyptian that will decide who he protects and who he kills...But do all the assassins truly have the same goals?

SatAM, very dark. Never doubt what Robotnik is capable of, as a mother and her child learn first-hand.

After the Black Doom incident, Shadow has finally moved on and begun a normal life. Sadly, this soon comes to an end. He is contacted by a killer who has a game for Shadow to play. Shadow must seek the help of his friends as The Countdown ticks life away.

This will only hurt for a second. Then everything will be okay. Trust me, it's for the better.

Yami Bakura, Ryou Bakura, and Mr. Bakura are whisked away to a parallel dimension by an old enemy. A case of mistaken identity leads the trio to be targeted by a zealous vigilante.

Fully restored from his last defeat, Yami Marik's reign of terror continues as he traps Marik Ishtar in a nightmare of darkness six feet below the ground and taunts his loved ones as they attempt to find him while the clocks ticks down their only hours.

Yami Bakura is abducted and tortured by Yami Marik, who survived his defeat at the end of Battle City. Meanwhile, Bakura fights to find his friend before time runs out. Pendulum Swings verse.

Bakura is being stalked by a serial killer he met as a child, the memory of whom he blocked out. To make matters worse, Yami Bakura knows the person too---from a time period of unsolved mysteries and foggy, shadowy nights....

Follow-up to The Pendulum Swings. Bakura and Yami Bakura are barely getting used to their odd situation when a new problem develops: Bakura's father comes home unannounced and they are completely unprepared for him to meet the Thief King.

Thief King Bakura, Zorc, Yami Bakura.... After three thousand years of being infused with part of Zorc's spirit, the spirit of the Ring is no longer certain who he is upon being freed. Nor is he certain why his torn spirit is suddenly in Bakura's room.

W h a t ? !

What?

Ryou's life seems to finally be turning out for the better. Then a cousin he didn't know he had akaBakura comes from Egypt to live with his family. But what else comes to Domino from Egypt? And whose side is his cousin really on? Not RyouKura AU

This is a reprinting of a removed story and a monument to Sega's failures as storytellers. It's the reality of what happened to Shadow at the end of Sonic Adventure 2.
