MOVE FORWARD 3

Shadow was the first to wake up. He did a mute awakening so as not to disturb the little blue and hairy thing that was one nose away. He stretched out in all his volume like he never remembered doing. With his arms extended over his head he looked out over the field and the sun that was high in the sky, it was already noon. A couple of little birds were jumping on the grass looking for seeds to eat. Shadow's movement did not frighten them nor did it seem that the peace that covered what the sun touched was alterable.

The sun's rays gave the hedgehogs back all the heat they needed in the night. It penetrated their skin and bones restoring their health and eliminating the possibility of any eventual cold. Shadow's tortuous or taciturn disposition went along with everything else, all the affection of the previous day pierced his heart, he was overflowing with a sweet languor. He rested his head on his hand, determined to see him until he woke up. His hands felt overloaded with the most patient and goody caresses in the world.

He changed the way he held his head several times while waiting for Sonic to wake up till he finally saw him open his eyes. Sonic smiled and Shadow automatically smiled back at him, showing his teeth.-I´m hungry.-said. Shadow responded by insinuating that he would attend to his need-Oh-and he began to think for a moment as Sonic yawned foolishly throwing a roar to purposely disturb all the tranquility of the valley and the fluttering of the birds echoed through the trees. The looseness of the blue hedgehog hit Shadow's chest hard, its lack of rectitude dazzled him as when at night and on the road rabbits are paralyzed by car lights.-What are you looking at?-asked Sonic, causing Shadow's eyes to stop scanning his body and focus on his face, which was savvy and tricky. On an impulse he stood up and kissed him on the mouth to seduce him and make him fall in love. He felt him totally surrendered, he made him moan from the depths, Shadow´s mouth followed him when the kiss was over.-Pup.-he said pleadingly. But Sonic went back to rest because he knew that the situation merited six of one and half a dozen of the other. Shadow gave him a ghostly caress on the side of his head and joined his forehead with his own.-I know where to get you food, wait here.-he whispered to him in his most loving voice and Sonic with his taunted mischief answered sweetly:-Fine, wolfie. I´ll wait for you.

He then teleported to the village. And by the vagaries of fate the first animal he saw after walking a little was the rooster that had spoken to him. He greeted and asked him about the food that was left over from the previous day's celebration.-Are you around?-asked the rooster.-No, we are far away. Through the whole forest.-he answered.-And you came all the way here to look for food?-I have the ability to appear and disappear anywhere.-...You heroes and your weird powers.-said the rooster as he took him home. It had a strong but slightly crooked way of walking-The name's Sid, my friend.-Well, Sid, tell the friends of... that is to say my friends that we are fine.-I can see that. Everything is in order here. No threats.-Sid's wife prepared all the food she had saved from the party and wrapped it up in a blanket.-Thank you, ma'am. You are very kind.-My name's Freia.-she said, looking at how the sullen hedgehog had sensibly changed his expression with which he was known to all. Shadow intentionally watched the two of them and said goodbye. In front of their eyes he disappeared.
