A TALE OF SHADOW.
Chapter 1:My Story Begins....
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I've got this while I was playing Sonic Adventure 2 on either the Dreamcast or the
GameCube. The entire story will be from Shadow's point of view as he went through SA2. Sonic,
Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Robotnik, Shadow, Rouge and everyone else belongs to SEGA and Sonic Team.
Life....... What does it mean? What is it all about? Do they have a purpose? Do I have a purpose?
My name is Shadow... Shadow the Hedgehog. While other organic creatures are created from a mother
and a father through a phase, I was created to become the Ultimate Life Form created by one of
the worlds leading scientist, Prof. Gerald Robotnik.
Everything was so perfect..... I was the Ultimate Life Form and I had a good friend, Gerald's
grandaughter, Maria.... She was beautiful.
But, then.... something happened.... Something that turned my life around.... Before I blacked
out and had voices in my head, Maria said something that I forgotten.... We lived in a place
called the Space Colony ARK and, it was attacked... My last memory was of Maria, pushing me into
a tube, saying something before she pressed the button and everything blacked out..... Maria was
in a funny positon. She was.... dying.... Maria, NO!
Voices.... Sounded like... Gerald. The Eclipse Cannon, ARK, Ivo Robotnik, Chaos Emeralds... That
what he said to me before I fell asleep for the next 50 years....
I woke up in the middle of an underground lair that was part of a secret military base known as
the GUN. I stood on top of my 'bed', looking down at the person that freed me from my sleeping
prison. There was an old man, sitting in a walking machine. This was Gerald's grandson, Ivo
Robotnik or, Dr. Eggman.
Eggman growled when he first saw me, "Agh! Is that you, Sonic? Are you trying to spoil my plans
again?" he complained. But, as soon as he took a closer look at me, he realized that I wasn't
this 'Sonic' person. "Wait...you're not Sonic! This is impossible!"
"My name is Shadow." I said to him, in a calm voice. "Since you were so kind as to release me, my
master...I will grant you one wish."
I heard the alarms going off, nearly making Eggman jump out of his Egg Walker.
"NOW what?!" he groaned.
I looked up and saw a military robot known as the Hot Shot, flying towards us. I activated my
air blades and flew towards the robot.
"Behold, the true power I posess!" I said to Eggman, before facing the robot!
The huge robot landed before me and I could hear the pilot of the robot saying, This is Scorpian
Troop's Hot Shot! Enemy movement has been detected. En route to intercept and destroy!"
"Copy that, B3," the operations communcator answered.
Hot Shot leaped into the air, activating it's booster pack, and started strafing, showering the
floor with bullets. I dodged the barrage as Hot Shot landed, and fired four missles at me. When
the missles were fired, I leaped up and took a dive at the cockpit of Hot Shot, damaging it.
Hot Shot leaped into the air again and powered up a laser, firing it at me. A miss. Hot Shot
circled back and fired off its bullets again. I was just too fast since I was on my air blades.
Hot Shot landed and this time fired 6 missles at me. No hit. I attacked the cockpit again.
This particular attacked continued, hoping to tire me out. Ha! No dice as I attacked again.
"This is Scorpian troop's Hot Shot. The enemy is stronger than expected. Request additional
support!" the pilot radioed in, frantic. One more hit and Hot Shot's done for. Excellent.
Hot Shot leaped into the air and powered its laser again. Firing not once, not twice, but three
times. It missed, but came pretty darn close. Hot Shot landed and fired 10 missles at me. As
always, I came out, unscathed, and attacked Hot Shot.
"He is too strong!" the pilot radioed, as he ejected from the fallen robot.
"Hmph! Pathetic humans!" I said, folding my arms.
"Destroying that guard robot was spectacular!" Eggman applauded to me. "So Shadow, YOU are the
military's top secret weapon! What what did you mean when you said you would grant me a wish?"
I looked over my shoulder and said "Bring more Chaos Emeralds." And I started to leave.
"Shadow, WAIT!" Eggman called after me. I whirled to face Gerald's grandson.
"I'll be waiting for you....in the central control room, on the space colony ARK." I said to him,
walking away.
I could hear Eggman slamming his fist against the side of his Egg Walker saying "ARK?"
But, he was getting no more out of me as as I walked away, leaving Eggman gaping...
TO BE CONTINUED...
How was that? Pretty good, huh? I don't want any flames, clear?
