The 3 Shadows, Episode 3 - Miles' Tail

Chapter 4 - Shadow vs Shadow

Shadow and Joz stood on top of the mountains. There was absolutely no sign of Miles or his kidnapper. Although a huge metallic building could be seen way off into the distance. They were pretty sure Gerald was the one who kidnapped Miles and it was the only thing close to a lead.

"Do you think he's there then?" asked Joz, "It does look like a Gerald base".

"Well it's all we got to go on", said Shadow, "Let's go"

Just then some sticky Mud bombs hit Joz's feet sticking him to the ground. Several more shots were fired and Joz was stuck.

"Miles? What do you think you are doing?" asked Joz. Miles appeared next to Shadow and took his green emerald.

"Let's see what you can do without your Emerald Shadow", said Miles running off.

"Hey, give that back", said Shadow running after him. Shadow was faster than Miles so quickly caught up with him. Miles fired some mud, sticking Shadow to the ground temporarily as he ran off towards Gerald's Base.

"I don't know what's gotten into you but if you don't give me my Emerald back soon you'll regret it", said Shadow Shaking free of the Mud.

Miles led Shadow inside Gerald's base and into a special arena made just for them to fight in. The only way in was now blocked and the only way out was Chaos control unless the door re-opened. Shadow stood still inside the dark room.

"Miles, come out and explain your actions", said Shadow angrily. Miles appeared from the darkness shooting more mud at Shadow's feet.

"Quiet, you fell for our trap", said Miles, "First I'll take you down then Joz. Let's see how strong you are without a Chaos emerald". Shadow looked at Miles and two things caught his attention, His second Tail and a metal crown on his forehead.

"Miles, what happened?" asked Shadow.

"Gerald made me stronger", replied Miles, "Let me show you exactly what I can do".

Miles flew over to Shadow and pulled him out of his mud as he flew higher and higher. Shadow was still in shock but then realised the only thing keeping him from falling back down was Miles. They were really high now and Miles let go followed by a whack of his tail. Shadow was falling headfirst to the ground quickly. Shadow smashed into the ground, right next to where Gerald was standing. Gerald placed a crown on Shadow's head.

"Shadow, who is your master?" asked Gerald

"You are Gerald Robotnik", replied Shadow.

"Excellent, both of you take down Joz now so I can give him his crown", said Gerald.

"Understood", said both of them at the same time. Miles handed Shadow over his chaos emerald. The two left to room and spotted Joz exploring a corridor. Shadow used Chaos control and punched Joz in the stomach.

"Not you too Shadow. What's going on?" asked Joz. He quickly noticed the crown on his head and looked over to Miles.

"Those weird crowns. They're controlling your minds aren't they?" asked Joz.

"Silence. It doesn't matter anymore, you too will fall and you'll be under Gerald's control too", said Miles, Shooting bullets at Joz.

Joz reflected each of the bullets and struck his sword at Miles. Miles flew above him.

"What the?" said Joz. He then noticed Miles' second Tail.

"Holy crap! Where did that came from?" asked Joz.

"If you must know it was Gerald", said Miles as Shadow Chaos controlled into his arms. Miles then threw Shadow at Joz, who had begun spinning. Miles fired some mud aswell, which made sure Joz couldn't get out of the way.

Shadow smashed into Joz who couldn't defend in time and Joz fell to the floor. Gerald had entered the room and as Joz tried to get up Gerald placed a crown on his head too.

"Who is you master Joz?" asked Gerald

"You are Gerald Robotnik", replied Joz.

"Yes! My plan worked perfectly. With you three under my command nothing can stop me getting my revenge on GUN", said Gerald before laughing maniacally.

Now it's time to put the final stage of my secret plan into action.
