Why am I here?

chapter 1

" Why am I here?" Shadow asked himself. "Am I here to protect the humans…or…do I have a deeper meaning beyond my imagination?"

"You have a purpose that you haven't discovered yet."

"Who said that! " yelled Shadow while moving into a fighting stance.

"Relax Shadow. I'm talking to you telepathically."

"Who are you?"

"…Do you want the answers to your questions?"

"Of course!"

"Then follow my instructions. You must exit Station Square and run to Mystic Ruins. Once you arrive, you must find a yellow bird with a blue note attached to its leg. When you get the note, find the highest mountain and climb it. You'll find a temple and the only way in is if you use the note. I'll be there when you enter."

Curious, Shadow decided to follow the voice's instructions. He left Station Square and ran to Mystic Ruins. When he got there he tried to find the yellow bird. Unfortunately there were thousands of yellow birds and none of them had a blue note.

Shadow was exhausted. He searched for the yellow bird that had the note all day but he couldn't find it. He was about to leave when a blue bird landed on his nose.

"What the…"

He was about to let the bird go when he found out it had a yellow not on its leg.

"What the hell I've got nothing to lose." He took the note from the bird and went off to find the tallest mountain. After ten minutes he found a mountain that you can't see the peak of.

"This must be it," he said. He began to climb with hope he finds the answer to his questions.

Fifteen days later………….he was still climbing.

"Jesus, how tall is this mountain?" He finally found a ledge he could rest on. After two days, "I'm fully rested and ready to climb." Unfortunately he only got up two feet before falling down the mountain. While falling he saw a random red hedgehog climbing the mountain.

"HA HA! SUCKS FOR YOU!" yelled the red hedgehog. Except when he said that he fell too.

"OH NO!" he yelled falling into a lake. When Shadow landed on the ground he became unconscious. When Shadow woke up his whole body was aching by the impact of his fall.

"Ouch, that really hurt. I may hurt, but my determination to find my answer is stronger than my pain," said Shadow with determination in his eyes. He shot up the mountain and got to the same point where he fell he got even farther and saw that the temple was in reach. He was so close. Unfortunately he became careless and fell down the mountain…again.

Shadow growled. Frustration seemed to take hold of him. He gathered an enormous amount of energy and…leveled the mountain…four times. "DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT!"

After leveling the mountain he found the temple and busted in.

"Welcome Shadow."

"Stuff it! You know why I'm here!"

"Of course." An old white hedgehog stepped out of the shadows. "You're here for………BACON!"

"Ba-, ba-, bacon?"

"That's right! Bacon that is cooked to perfection and crisp…crispiness. That's right crispiness."

This just made Shadow scream to the top of his lungs. "BACON! YOU MADE ME TRAVEL OUT HERE FOR BACON! I CAME HERE TO FIND A YELLOW BIRD WITH A BLUE NOTE, TO REALIZE I HAD TO FIND A BLUE BIRD WITH A YELLOW NOTE…"

"Yeah…um…sorry about that."

"…THEN I HAD TO CLIMB YOUR FREAKIN' MOUNTAIN TO NOT ONLY FALL ONCE, BUT TWICE! THAT GOT ME SO MAD THAT I HAD TO LEVEL YOUR STUPID MOUNTAIN FOUR TIMES!"

"You leveled my mountain?"

"YES, I DID AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN IF I HAVE TO!"

"But…why?"

"IT'S BECAUSE I FELL OFF YOUR MOUNTAIN FOUR TIMES!" he yelled while holding up four fingers.

"You could've used the elevator."

This made Shadow go off the edge. "THAT'S IT I'M GONNA BLOW UP THIS PLACE RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!" Shadow gripped the chaos emerald he was holding and said, "CHAOS-" but before he could finish the chaos emerald he was holding…disappeared.

"HUH? WHAT THE-"

"Now, now Shadow. We can't bother ourselves with petty toys now can we?"

"But how did you?"

"Heh, my name is Ryu and I can teach you everything I know."
