The warrior's confession / Shadows of a dark creature…………
It took Sonic and Tails three hours to finish their checkup on the Tornado walker without Shadow to help them. That made them regret that they laughed at him like that, But it didn't matter now that they were finished. "I still can't believe you built that complicated ass thing by yourself." Sonic said wiping the oil from his hands. "Well believe it because it's true." Tails said with a smile. Sonic smiled back and turned to look out the main door of the hanger. "You think Shadow is still pissed?" Sonic said putting his gloves back on. "Let me put it this way Sonic. He didn't like you now he doesn't like you or Amy." Tails said with a smile. "Amy……" Sonic said looking at the ceiling. "Sonic…." Tails said looking at his young mentor. Tails paused and then continued. "You once told me that you live by your feelings. So why are you making an exception now?" Tails asked looking at the floor. "What do you mean?" Sonic said cocking his eyebrow. "Amy……you're in love with her aren't you?" Tails said as he stood up. Sonic had started walking toward the door but stopped when he heard Tails. Sonic turned his head and looked at him. "Tails, I've never lied to you before and I'm not going to start now….." Sonic paused and tails looked at him harder waiting for an answer. "…Yes…I' am." Sonic said now looking out the main hanger door. "Then why are you trying to hide it from her? She already knows." Tails said facing the living room. "And she feels the same way toward you." Tails said turning around. "There's still someone else….." Sonic said walking away. "I understand." Tails said in agreement. Tails turned and started walking in the opposite direction. He turned to face Sonic one last time. "But is she still waiting for you?" Tails asked walking out the hanger. Sonic sat motionless. It only seemed like yesterday when Tails was just a fun loving kid looking for adventure. He matured so much over the years. It seemed like everyday he grew wiser. Sonic looked out the main hanger door to see Shadow and Rouge sitting on the edge of the cliff. He sighed when he saw them together. Then he turned and walked toward the living room.
Rouge sat with her hands holding her head. She watched as the waves rolled up against the cliff side. Her leg still hurt like crazy but she managed to ignore it. She thought about the G.U.N. and how they would kill anyone that got in there way of Shadows capture. She knew how they operated….and she knew they would soon learn of her and Shadow's whereabouts. She knew that the others knew this as well, but strangely they didn't seem to mind. G.U.N. would label them as targets just like they did her. "Shadow, can I ask you a question?" She said watching the waves hit the cliff side. She waited for a response but one didn't come. She looked over at him to discover that he was asleep. She didn't try to wake him. She just smiled at him and continued to watch the waves.
Shadow was running. Running very fast Through darkness. He heard screams as he ran by. The screams sounded like people calling out to him for help. He ignored them and he just kept running. He was running from something but he had no idea what. The darkness he was running in seemed endless. He stopped running and turned to see what it was he was running from. He couldn't see a thing. It was too dark. He squinted his eyes to see but he couldn't see a damn thing. The screams started to get louder. It seemed like the longer he sat there the louder the screams got. And then to his shock one of the screams sounded familiar. That scared him and without hesitating he turned and kept running. But the familiar scream kept getting louder, so loud that it drowned out the other screams. "SHADOW! TURN AND FACE ME!" The voice screamed. Shadow kept running he didn't want to face the person that the voice belonged to. "SHADOW, DON'T BE ASHAMED! FACE ME!" The voice continued. "I CAN'T!" Shadow yelled adding on to his already amazing speed. "SHADOW PLEASE! DON'T BE ASHAMED TO LOOK AT ME!" the voice shouted. Shadow could feel tears rolling down his cheeks. He could not face this person. His shame was too great. "SHADOW STOP!" the voice begged. But he kept running. He did not want this person to see the cold hearted person he had become. "SHADOW! IF YOU TRULY CARE ABOUT ME, YOU WILL STOP NOW!" The voice shouted. And that did it. Shadow came to a screeching halt. He didn't turn to face the person. He just stood there. He felt a small hand touch him on the shoulder. He turned and faced what he had been running from. "Maria….." He said with tears in his eyes. Stood before Shadow was a beautiful young woman about his age glowing with a blue light. Her hair was waving like wind was blowing through it. Shadow held hands with her and he began to cry even more. "Shadow, don't cry. You did all you could." She said as she put her arms around him. Shadow was trying to hold back his tears but he couldn't. "Don't grieve for me. You've done it long enough." She said also starting to cry. "NO! I could have done more!…." he stopped right when he said that. He hugged Maria even tighter and continued. "Why…..why did you make me leave you to die alone? Why didn't you let me die with you?" Shadow said with his eyes closed and tears coming from them. "Because it wouldn't have been fair to you. I loved you like the brother I never had. I couldn't let you die. You never even been outside the ark." Maria said as she embraced Shadow. "Shadow, listen to me. Evil is approaching an evil so great that even the power of the Chaos Emeralds can not match it." Maria said. Maria put her forehead on his and said. "You have no choice but to trust him…" Maria said with her eyes closed. She pulled away from him and put her hand on his cheek. She kissed him on his opposite one and started to cry with him. "Maria…. I'll make them pay for what they did to you………" Shadow wiped the tears from his eyes and continued. "I SWER IT! I'LL MAKE THEM SUFFER!!!" Shadow shouted still crying and putting his hand on Maria's. "Follow her….." Maria said with a sad look on her face. "Follow who?" Shadow said with tears still coming from his eyes. "I have to go now…..I'll be waiting for you on the other side…goodbye my friend." And with that last word Maria took her hand from Shadow's face. Shadows eyes got wide when he saw her fade into little blue specs of light and disappear. "MARIA! COME BACK TO ME! DON'T LEAVE! MARIA!" Shadow shouted crying hard. Shadow was heartbroken to see his friend leave him again……this time for good. He fell to his knees put his hands on his eyes looked up and shouted at the top of his lungs. After that he stood and looked down at the ground. And suddenly he felt a very large cold hand grab him by the throat and lift him up off his feet. He put his hands on the hand and struggled to break free. And in the darkness he saw two bright red eyes staring at him. He started struggling even harder but what ever this thing was it was much stronger than he was. He felt the hand squeeze his neck cutting off his air. He then felt a pain right in the center of his neck. He tensed in pain as he felt his neck snap.
