Shadow's POV

Me and the others jumped as Knuckles came running in, yelling "Tails is alive", I looked around and saw everyone but me and Eggman looked at Knuckles crossly, thinking that he was joking. Probably noticing this, Knuckles quickly handed me a note as he said, "Read this, I found it by the cliff, its from Tails" upon hearing this I started to read the note "Dear Sonic," I read out loud "You may never find this note, but if you do, I just want to say thank you. You helped me in ways you'll never know, and it's too hard to explain. Your unconditional hatred has led me to see that I need to start over, find a new life. I hope you've learned something from this. Miles Prower". Amy, Cream, Rouge and Big nearly jump for joy after hearing what the note said (me and Eggman didn't join in the jumping about as we had the image of an evil mad scientist and the anti social loner to maintain).
"We should go tell Sonic" Knuckles said, causing the others to pause to think about this. After all, if I know Sonic, he'll get all worked up and would try and find Tails, only to lose hope again if we can't find him. Just then Eggman said, "I think we should talk to Tails first", I turned around with the others to look at Eggman, who was staring at something on the TV. I saw that it was the Mobius news that was on and, being awarded medals by the mayor of the city, was the group who I remember Knuckles telling me were called Team Chaotix, and standing there with them, was Tails.

I looked at the medal in my hand. There have been a number of times that I have got a mention in the news as something other then a sidekick, but they are nothing compared to this medal, for I did it without Sonic or Knuckles and the others, but me and Team Chaotix. After the news, we headed back to Team Chaotix's house and threw a party to celebrate; I chuckled as Vector, Ray and Mighty convinced Espio to sing "It's raining men" while Charmy and our chao were dancing. I looked at how different me and Team Chaotix have become and, after setting a cam-corded to record Espio's singing for future viewing, joined in on the singing.

It took some time but we all managed to get seats on the next train to Mobius. As I downed the last of my coke, I overheard two Armadillos returning from a business trip talking.
"Have you heard the latest about Team Chaotix?" the blue Armadillo asked the green one
"You mean how they saved the Green Hill Zone from that mad scientist, Dr Baconman?" replied, hearing that Eggman didn't know whether to be insulted that someone has copied his name or puzzled as Dr Baconman sound like some one you would want to meet at breakfast.
"Yeah" the red Armadillo continued, "He built this giant robot that was smashing everything in its path and then Team Chaotix came on the scene and began fighting it. And then Tails, the new member of the team, blew it up by leading the heat seeking missile the robot fired straight back at it and then they got medals for saving the day". With their conversation over, I looked over to see how the others are faring. Cream was staring out of the window, looking at the wonders of the Special Zone, Big was holding his fishing rod tightly as he stared out at the fish that were flying past the window, Rouge was trying to steal Knuckles' Master Emerald again (Why he's carrying it in his pocket, I don't know) and Shadow was asleep muttering "Maria" in his sleep.
"Eggman, how are we going to find Tails?" Amy asked as I began to read the newspaper, "Simple" I answered, "We'll just find Team Chaotix and ask them" Just then Shadow woke up with a jump and a yell of "MARIA"

I look up at the table as I open the door. After Shadow, Knuckles and Eggman left, they came to see about bandaging up my cuts, I decided to go to Tails' workshop. The place was a mess, but it's always been like this. As I picked up the tool that was lying on the floor, I remember the time Tails had redesigned the Tornado. I stared at myself in the mirror and could only think one think over and over again in my mind, "Your no hero, Tails was more the hero then you were". As I clean the workshop, I looked out of the window and wondered, "Why don't I just jump off that cliff myself and be done with it." The thought seemed to have a good point, but then I decided that was the easy way out of this guilt. After I finished tidying the workshop, I headed back to the station I turned and faced the place one last time and said, "Bye Tails, guess I'll be seeing your soon little buddy".

I looked over to the sound interrupted my work and saw that it was Charmy playing his game, most likely practising for the rematch was going to have with Tails tomorrow. The game Charmy was playing was called Tails Adventure, after saving the world a number of times; People were making computer games about our adventures against Dr Baconman. In fact I can still remember our very first adventure

Flashback to two weeks ago
()()()
Tails and me were just hanging around when suddenly the ground shook as a flying fortress over the Green Hill Zone.
"FOOLS, BARE WITNESS TO THE BIRTH OF A NEW EMPIRE" a voice boomed as a machine that Tails recognised as the Egg Walker Eggman used, however it was red instead of grey. The guy sitting in it looked like Eggman only he was wearing a blue jacket, wore square glasses and had a goatee along with the handle bar moustache, "I am Dr Baconman, the greatest scientific mind in the world" the now named person continued speaking, "I have chosen Green Hill Zone as the starting ground of my new Baconman empire" Tails simply replied "An Eggman wannabe, this shouldn't be to hard". I however just stood there, a puzzled look on my face and a raised eyebrow, as I said in puzzlement, "Baconman?" Just then the rest of Team Chaotix arrived in Tails' new plane, The Chaotix Tornado and as we stood together I yelled, "Since your new here, allow me to introduce ourselves, we are Team Chaotix and we're here to whoop your big butt"
"If he looks like Eggman then his butt probably is big," Ray added jokingly.
Baconman growled as he turned his weapons at us and said, "I knew would encounter some resistance, but not so soon," he pushed a button and a bunch of robot came out, "Still, my robots will defeat you and even if you destroy them your are no match for my Bacon Walker". Deciding to not waste anymore time talking to him and started pounding away at his robots. As he saw his robot's getting pounded, Dr Baconman tried to make a run for it while yelling, "This isn't the end, and once I have all the time stones I will rule the world" Tails then chased Baconman off by jumping into his plane and switched it into it's battle robot mode.

Of course after we beat Baconman the first time he came back again and again, he even made robot versions of us. I hear a knock on the door and go to see who it is.

As I sit up, rubbing my jaw, I glared at Vector and yelled, "WHY DID YOU PUNCH ME!?!" Vector smiled as he replied "Sorry Knuckles, though I'm glad to see you again, you did deserved that punch after what you and the others did to Tails". Just then the rest of Team Chaotix (exceptTails) showed up, after a quick introduction (Charmy kept calling Shadow "Sonic"), Eggman asked, "Vector do you know where Tails is?"
"Why?" Vector asked
"We want to talk to him and apologise"
"Well… I suppose if these lunkheads," Vector said as he pointed to me and the other "have learned their lesson, I could let you stay as Tails is coming to visit soon."

As I stepped into the room, I couldn't believe my eyes. Knuckles, Amy, Cream, Big, Rouge, Shadow and Eggman were talking to Vector and the others, I noticed the bruise on Knuckles' jaw and grinned knowing that Vector most likely did that, as they noticed I was in the room I asked, "What are you guys doing here?" Knuckles then said, "Tails, after you left, we thought that you were dead, and in the past few weeks, we realised that we were wrong. We should have never said any of those things and when we found you were still alive, we've come to say we're sorry" I saw Cream, Big, Amy and Rouge nodded as well, seeing that they were being truthful, I smiled and said "I accept your apologies" After this we all (except for Team Chaotix, Eggman and Shadow) had one big hug as a sign that we're friends again, it was then I finally noticed it,
"Where's Sonic?" as I saw Knuckles frowned, I began to worry, "Tails," Knuckles started, "when we thought you were dead, Sonic took it the hardest".

I stared at the knife I was holding in my hands. I'm sure that the others would flip if they found out that I used this knife to cause those previous cuts. I wasn't thinking about to killing myself, I just did it to punish myself some more for what I did to Tails but now I wonder. Should I just do the final stab and end this now?
Last chapter next, thank to Sonic-lover3 for help with the editing. As for the name of Dr Baconman, I was trying to think of a villain of Tails to fight and when I was having some breakfast, then I thought of it, a mad scientist that looks like Eggman but named Baconman. I think he could be used in a future story.
