Chapter 2 - Insanity takes hold
Miles Prower isn't usually one for adventures. With his mechanical skills and paintball tournaments taking his time, he feels he has enough excitement in his life. How wrong he was. He lives near Green woods, normally quiet, disturbed by a loud crash noise. Miles was a fox, coming up to his 12th birthday. He was mostly orange but with Tiger like Black stripes, which was unusual for one of the Prowers.
He investigated the crash site to find a black hedgehog with red stripes lying unconscious on the grass floor. He tried shaking the hedgehog but he didn't move. He was breathing though so he couldn't be dead, unless he was some sort of Alien, he did fall from the sky.
Doesn't matter, I have to get him to a nice warm bed for some rest anyway.
Miles picked up the strange being and began his short journey back to his house. For the next few days nothing happened. The Black hedgehog wouldn't move at all and Miles began worrying about it.
Meanwhile on ARK Gerald Robotnik had heard news of GUN's attack. Searching desperately on ARK for some sign of life, desperately seraching for Maria, his Granddaughter. He himself has been distracted by GUN while the attack took place. He found out that Project shadow hadn't gone the way they wanted and decided to scrap the project altogether. Unfortunately that meant killing all that worked on it to prevent word getting out.
Project Shadow was the design and creation of the Ultimate life form. He invisioned it to be something benefitial to mankind. He looked to the Ancient echidnas, a once proud race destroyed by a judgement day style disaster. DNA was hard to come by but he saw some similarities with hedgehogs. He created Shadow the hedgehog, a black hedgehog that could run at the speed of sound and use the power of "Chaos" to his own advantage.
"Chaos" being the life force of everything on Earth. Usually represented in Golden rings scattered across the world, legends say that there are seven gems of pure chaos energy. These gems have power to rival their rarity, known as the Chaos Emeralds. Shadow was designed to use them. Much more effectively than his prize find the Gizoid. The Gizoid was an ancient weapon created by the echidnas, however they didn't realise just how powerful it could be. He decided for the good of the world that the Gizoid would remain in storage.
Anyway back to Shadow. It seemed GUN wanted something powerful and destructive.
I didn't become a scientist to destroy, I became one to help.
However his once noble thought would soon twist with insanity as he discovered Maria. She had been shot, she had been everything to him, and she had been his only real family after disowning his second son and the death of his other child. He soon discovered Maria was more than just a family member. Her death, no her brutal murder, was what set him off. What was once a proud forgiving scientist became one that ironically GUN wanted. One that would plan to destroy the world, to avenge Maria's death.
Holding Maria in his arms he began to cry and the empty ARK orbited the blue round gem of Earth. He eventually got the strength to keep looking and surveying the damage. He found many of his colleague's dead, and worst of all next to Maria's death was the absense of Shadow. He began wondering if Shadow had escaped, if the last thing that mattered in his life existed.
He piled the bodies up, everyone he found was dead. He jettisoned the bodies into space in metal coffins he created. He cried as he fired Maria's off.
She was just a child, she didn't deserve that, no one did. For that GUN I'm going to take away what you say means the most to you, the people of Earth. For Maria, as long as I live I will get my Revenge!! The world will soon learn to fear the name Gerald Robotnik!!
