And now...

Chapter 2

Amy Rose was in a bad mood. First Sonic acted like a first class

snob, then he actually yelled at her. He had gotten mad before, but

he had never been such a jerk. He was her hero, but now he refused

to pay attention to her at all. And when he did, it was just to insult her.

"What is with that hedgehog lately?" she thought aloud, pacing in her

apartment that was once cluttered with the Sonic commodities that

now lay in a ripped up heap in the garbage can, "He doesn't even

remember Shadow..." She thought back on that day on the ARK,

when Sonic and Shadow had confronted FinalHazard in their Super

forms. It was Shadow's act of selflessness that had saved Mobius

from the demented dreams of Gerald Robotnik. It resulted in Sonic's

fame and Shadow's demise. Sonic showed his first sign of a craving

for fame when they had got back. Sonic had changed the story when

the journalists and reporters questioned him. As far as they new,

Shadow was a menace that Sonic had stopped. Dr. Eggman had

tried to tell the real story, but no reporter was going to listen to a

maniac like him. In fact, when they noticed he was there, they had

tried to arrest him, which resulted in a big, gaping crater and more

than a few injured police. Eggman had gotten away. Amy was glad in

a way. It seemed fair that the mad doctor should be free after he tried

to save Shadow's reputation. Sonic had been glad as well, although

Amy didn't know. He had been glad because if Eggman had been

caught, he wouldn't be able to show off. Later that day Sonic had

hunted him down and sent him to prison. The doctor was regrettably

facing charges to numerous and well proven to deny, and it didn't

help that he did nothing to rebuff taking part in schemes for world

domination and the destruction of Station Square, and in fact he had

boasted in court that it was pure genius and he would manage to win

next time. He was sentenced to hard labour and life imprisonment.

Amy sat down on a fluffy pink couch and sighed. She almost felt sorry

for that Eggman. Just then, she heard the sirens wailing. She ran to

her window and looked outside. The cops were chasing a hedgehog.

One with red and black quills. Amy gasped. "But how?"

Meanwhile, in a cell in Prison Lane, Dr. Ivo Robotnik, the very

Eggman that was now banished to his cell for a lifetime, was

watching on the monitor that he had hooked up during his public

service yesterday in the front of Route 205. Normally he used it to

plot a way out of this detestable cell, but now he stared at it, his jaw

wide open and his eyes widening behind his tinted glasses as he saw

police in close pursuit of the very same hedgehog he had seen burn

in the atmosphere. He regained his composure but still had a

shocked look on his face. "Shadow is alive?"
