Chapter 29
Both hedgehogs looked very magnificent indeed. Knuckles and Tails smiled, knowing that their two friends could do this no sweat. Amy stared in wonder at Shadow, for she had never actually seen him in his super form properly before.
Sonic and Shadow nodded at each other.
"I'll be there in 2 seconds" Shadow said and Sonic disappeared in a sparkle of light.
Shadow floated to Amy and put his hand on her cheek. Amy smiled and grasped it in her own.
"Good luck…Shadow the Hedgehog." She said, her eyes melting into Shadow's.
Shadow smiled. He didn't say anything but Amy knew the care Shadow was showing toward her. He backed away slightly and disappeared in the same sparkly fashion as Sonic.
Shadow appeared by Sonic, who had been patiently waiting for him.
"Let's do it!" Shadow yelled and the two hedgehogs raced toward the DX 100 at full speed.
As they flew, Sonic was looking for a weak spot, almost like a scanner. He saw the compartment where the DX 100 put the chaos emeralds, to absorb their power.
"That could be his weak spot! Let's give that a try!" he yelled. Shadow nodded and they increased their speed, so that they were now hurtling toward the DX 100's body.
Suddenly, one of the huge metal tentacles rose up and swung at the hedgehogs. Luckily, Sonic and Shadow moved apart so collision was avoided.
The two of them shot at the DX 100's middle. They hit the compartment, which smashed a bit, and the DX 100 screamed in pain.
"Yes!" Sonic shouted.
The two flew back, hovering in the air, and watched the DX 100 squirm in pain. However, a few seconds later it recovered and began to fire huge laser beams at the two heroes.
"You'll pay for this!" it yelled, frantically firing the laser beams.
Sonic and Shadow quickly dodged them, by zipping too and fro. They, once again, zoomed at the DX 100's middle and hit it, with such a force that they broke through and out of the other side.
A distant cheering could be heard from the building. Knuckles and Tails jumped up and down and cheered on their friends. Amy watched the two hedgehogs in their battle.
"Shadow…" She thought to herself.
Once again, the DX 100 yelled out in pain and began to fire the lasers again, but a lot quicker, in it's aim to get rid of the two hedgehogs for good.
Shadow began to feel a bit like he did at the ARK incident. His breathing became heavier and could feel sweat running down his forehead. Sonic noticed this and became concerned.
"Shadow, are you OK?" he asked
"I'm fine…" he said, a little breathlessly.
Suddenly, a laser shot at them. It was heading toward Sonic, who didn't noticed as he was too concerned with Shadow's rapid energy loss. But Shadow noticed it.
"Sonic, look out!" he yelled and shot in front of Sonic. Sonc blinked in surprise and turned to see Shadow taking the hit of the laser. It hit him in the shoulder, which pushed him backward slightly. Shadow clenched his wound and screamed.
Then the DX 100 saw it's chance and whacked Shadow with one of it's huge metal tentacles. Shadow hurtled to the ground and landed on a pile of rubble. Dirt and dust flew from it and Shadow made impact.
"Shadow!" Sonic yelled. The DX 100 laughed evilly, waving it's tentacles about itself. Sonic growled and clenched his fist.
Knuckles, Tails and Amy saw Shadow fall and gasped.
Amy yelled out "No! Shadow!" Tears began to dwell in her eyes.
"Please don't let it happen!" she said aloud, almost as if it were a prayer. "Please, let Shadow be OK!" she fell on her knees and began to cry slightly.
Tails knelt by her and Knuckles put his hand on her shoulder.
Just then, a bright glow could be seen from the ground. The pile of rubble burst upward and a the glow hovered up.
Amy looked up, wiping away her tears.
The glow, in fact, was Shadow. He was breathing heavily but looked very angry and full of a new kind of power, as it were. Growling, he shot past Sonic, who blinked with surprise, and flew at The DX 100's head. Using all of his strength Shadow burst through the mechanical beast.
A horrible scream could be heard and the DX 100 began to jerk and sparks flew from it. The red glowing in it's eyes stopped and it began to fall apart. It's limbs fell to the ground. It's body collapsed and broke as it hit the ground. More dirt and dust arose and became a curtain, surrounding the two hedgehogs and making them blind to their friend's view.
The DX 100 lay in a heap on the ground. It was no more.
Shadow was hovering just behind where the DX 100's head had been. He was panting heavily. Just then he began to sway and his glow slowly vanished. His eyes closed and his body began to fall, from exhaustion. But then he felt a grip around his torso and he stopped falling.
The other waited anxiously on the building roof.
"I can't see them anymore!" Knuckles said "There's a cloud of dust."
"But they beat the DX 100!" Tails yelled out in happiness
"Please be ok…" Amy said quietly to herself.
Just then two figures emerged from the smoke, one carrying the other by the chest.
Knuckles, Amy and Tails smiled.
"Sonic! You're OK!" Tails yelled.
Sonic landed by his friends and changed back to his normal form. He lay Shadow on the ground and Amy ran to him.
She put her hand on his cheek.
"Shadow?" she whimpered, tears coming to her eyes again. "Please wake up…"
There was no reply.
Sonic looked away and shut his eyes with grief. Knuckles and Tails stopped smiling.
"Shadow, please…" Amy said, a little more strongly but becoming more entangled by sadness. A tear fell from her eyes and it landed on Shadow's face, falling from his cheek, as if it were his own. Amy hugged Shadow and began to break down.
The atmosphere became very awkward. None of the others thought that anything they could say would help so they stayed silent.
Amy went to Shadow's ear and whispered.
"Shadow…I love you."
"…I love…you too…Amy…" came a croaky voice.
Amy gasped and sat up. Shadow opened his eyes weakly and smiled.
The other gasped too.
Shadow pulled himself up, so that he was on his knees. He looked up at Sonic and smiled.
"We did it Sonic." He said, his throat obviously sore. Sonic nodded and gave a thumbs up.
"You saved my life Shadow." He said.
"...the other half...of my debt repaid..." Shadow replied
Shadow turned to Amy and put his hand on her cheek.
Amy's eyes sparkled, amongst her tears (which were now of joy).
The two leant forward and kissed.
