A/N: Yay! Reviews! I didn't expect so many. I took some advice and edited the very end of the last chapter. I'm trying to make this story in different POVs instead of just Amy's because I can't see Shadow being open about what happened to him. Also, this chapter introduces one of my fan characters. Even if you don't like the idea please read now and review soon!
SHADOW POV
My head was hurting more than ever. I don't know why I even tried to use Chaos Control on myself when I was so weak. I feel more tired than I ever have and I feel weak. I don't even know where I am. I can only see large, leafy trees and tall blades of grass.
Just a few minutes before I tried to stand up but I collapsed. Instead of trying again like I'd usually do I just laid my head on the ground and tried to rest. It was peaceful wherever I was. I didn't hear any loud noises or people. Though I needed be alone and rest I couldn't stand it. I hoped that somebody would hear me call.
"Help…" My voice was little louder than a whisper. "Please?" It seemed too useless to me. I didn't want to bother anymore but I didn't want to die…I heard a few rapid footsteps. They seemed to be close. I did try one more time to call for help.
"Ugh…" I mumbled. My head was aching so much as I talked. "Somebody please help!" I wondered how long it would be before anyone came to help me. I felt pathetic having to call for help but at least it'll save me.
"Shadow!" My train of thought was broken when I heard my name called. I looked up and saw that pink hedgehog girl staring at me, pure shock on her face. Ann? Amy? I couldn't remember her name too well. I didn't listen to her talk that much until I heard what I was expecting to hear.
"How did you survive?" I didn't answer her at first; instead I just stared off into the distance as if the hedgehog didn't exist. The truth was I didn't really know. However, I saw her stare at me so I just answered her.
"Does it matter?" I was sure it did, but I really had nothing to say. The girl was nice enough, I knew she'd understand. She seemed like she was waiting for something more, so I added, "I really don't know…Amy, is it? It just happened…"
That seemed to satisfy the hedgehog girl. The surprised look on Amy's face turned to a more gentle, caring one. The only reason that she came to me would have been because I called for help, which she offered me.
"Are you all right, Shadow?" I couldn't help but get a little annoyed. Of course not! Why else would I be lying on the cold ground instead of walking around? Instead of being rude I just shook my head. "No? Well," she continued, "I guess it would be best to get you somewhere to rest, at least. Wait here!"
Amy scurried off somewhere, leaving me alone. I took the time to close my eyes and rest for a while in a calm, peaceful sleep.
"Hey! You! Sleepyhead! Wake up!"
I grunted as I woke up, putting a hand on my head. I wasn't expecting to be shouted at by somebody I didn't know. Instead of seeing somebody familiar like Sonic I ended up staring into the olive green eyes of a cat.
"Glad to see you're finally awake," the cat mumbled. I noticed that she had dark gray fur. She was leaning on a tree, her chin resting on a white gloved hand.
"Kali!" Amy shouted at the cat, "Why can't you be nice for once?" The cat, Kali, just smiled at Amy. I watched the two argue with each other for a while.
"You should at least be glade I came, Amy."
"Well, you don't have to be rude about this!"
Kali glared at Amy and crouched down over me, putting a temporary stop to the argument. For such a thin cat she was pretty strong. She lifted me up without much struggling. I assumed she had to do a lot of work for whatever reasons.
"So, Amy," Kali said, "Where do you want me to take this hedgehog anyway?"
A/N: Thanks for reading this! Sorry to all you OC haters but there's going to be 1 more OC at this point. Anyway, thanks again to all reviewers, I'm going to try to get another chapter up tomorrow! Don't worry, the chapters are eventually going to get longer. I'm just not used to writing long stories.
