Chapter 13: Not The Shadow I Know

The next day, Amy was about to check out from the hospital. Sonic was with her, because he stayed the whole night with her after she asked him to. But Amy didn't got much sleep. She was thinking about Shadow and had a bad feeling about what happened to him.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the entrance. Amy and Sonic looked at what it was and they saw a pink hedgehog, a young rabbit with a Chao running towards them.

"Sam?" Amy asked in confusion.

"Amy! Amy, thank God! You are ok!" Sam yelled as she hugged Amy tightly.

"Miss Amy! I'm so glad to see your alright!" Said Cream as Cheese made happy noises.

"Sam.. Can't... breath..." Amy said with as Sam let her go.

"Amy, I was so worried! When I heard you where kidnapped by Eggman, and when you lay in the hospital, I didn't knew what to do! I thought I lost you!" Sam said with tears in the corner of her eyes.

"Oh, Sammy, you'll never lose me! We have so much to do together!" Amy said as he wiped the tears away with he thumb.

"Who saved you?" Sam asked.

"Shadow, the one we found in the park, and..." Amy turned around. "Sonic. He stayed with me the whole night." Sam went suddenly quiet. She didn't saw Sonic when she came inside and hugged Amy. But now she did... The memory came back.

Sam looked at Sonic, while he looked at Sam. He knew what she thought, because he thought the same.

"Sam? Sonic? Why so quiet all of a sudden? Come on, let's get out of here. I want to go home." Amy said as she walked together with Cream and Cheese outside. A few seconds later, Sam and Sonic also went outside.

"I'm so glad you are ok, miss Amy." Cheese said as she and Amy walked in front of Sonic and Sam.

Amy smiled down at Cheese. "Yeah, me too, Cream." Amy then looked sad at the sky. 'I just hope Shadow is ok.'

Sonic and Sam stayed quiet while walking next to each other.

Sam walked closer to Sonic. "Sonic, we need to talk." She whispered so that Amy didn't heard them.

Sonic looked at her, a bit startled. "What? Here? Now?"

"No... tonight, at the park. We really need to talk. About... what... happened... you know."

Sonic blushed a bit. "Yeah... I think that's a good idea."

"Hey, what are you two doing? You aren't saying something about me, aren't you?" Amy said, laughing.

Sam and Sonic looked startled at Amy with a tiny blush. "No! Of course not!" They both said and laughed nervously with they're hand behind they're heads.

Amy giggled and walked on, to the apartment.

:Eggman's hidden base:

"Are you ready to go out and 'play', Project Shadow?" Eggman asked the black hedgehog.

"I am, master." Shadow said with an evil grin.

"Perfect. But first, you must get rid of that blue hedgehog, Sonic."

"I won't let you down, master." Shadow said, and chaos controlled himself from the base with his new red emerald.

"This time, Sonic, you can't win!" Eggman said, as he laughed.

:Amy and Sam's apartment:

"What a mess..." Amy stated as she saw the living room.

"I'll say..." Sonic said as he scratched his head.

"Well... Since you were kidnapped, there wasn't much time to clean up the mess." Sam said.

"Well, time to clean this up, no?" Amy said as she picked up the papers that were scattered on the ground.

"Should we help, Miss Amy?" Cream asked Amy.

"Chao, chao!" Cheese said, ready to help.

"That's really nice of you, Cream and Cheese. But you should go home. Thank you for picking me up at the hospital."

Cream giggled. "You are welcome Miss Amy! Well, then Cheese and I should be going."

Amy smiled. "Be careful on the way home!"

"I will!" Creams said as she closed the front door.

Amy sighed. "Well, let's begin, shall we?" Amy said as she turned to Sam and Sonic. Sam nodded and went to work. Sonic just stood there, looking at the mess on the ground.

"Sonic? What's wrong?" Amy asked as she saw him just standing there. Sonic snapped his head to Amy.

"Ah, nothing wrong Ames..." Sonic said, as it went quiet. Amy frowned and sighed.

"Fine, you can go too..." Sonic's face brightened.

"Thanks, Ames!" Sonic said as he sped outside.

Sam sweatdropped. "Sonic isn't really much of a cleaner, huh?"

Amy sighed again and shook her head. "Mh, let him be, let's get this cleaned up." Amy said as she grabbed a refuse sack, but she noticed, they had only one left.

"Sam, didn't you do the groceries the other day?"

"Yeah, but I didn't bought refuse sacks."

"So I can see... Never mind, I'll get some at the nearest store. Be right back." Amy said as she went outside and closed the door behind her.

When she was only a few meters away from she store, she heard a lot of commotion. A lot of screaming and yelling. Amy rushed to where it came from.

Suddenly she stopped, but she didn't see anyone. Anyone except for a black hedgehog. Amy gasped, she knew who it was.

"Shadow! Shadow!" Amy ran towards Shadow who was standing with his back towards her.

"Shadow!" Amy said as she hugged the hedgehog from behind. (A/N: Just the same as SA2)

"Shadow, I'm so glad to see you again! I thought something terrible had happened. I'm so glad you are alright!" Amy said as he hugged Shadow tight. But Shadow didn't moved an inch, nor did he say anything. Amy felt something wasn't right. She let go and looked at Shadow. (A/N: Well, his back XD)

"Shadow, what's wrong?" Amy asked in a concerned voice. She touched his rms, but he slapped her hand away.

Amy gasped. "Shadow? Why did you do that? What's wrong with you?" Amy asked as she now put both her hands on his arm, turning him around. When he looked at her with a cold stare, Amy shuddered.

"Get away from me." Shadow said with a emotionless tone. He pushed her away, which caused Amy to lose her balance, and she fell hard on the ground.

"Ow! Shadow, what's wrong with you? That hurt, you know!" Amy stood up again, rubbing her back.

"How do you know my name?" Shadow asked her.

Amy gasped. "What? Shadow, it's me, Amy Rose! Don't you remember?" Tears started forming in her eyes. How can he forget? He had saved her from Eggman.

"I do not know anyone by the name Amy Rose. I must eliminate you. Those are the orders of my master."

"What? Who is your master? What happened to you?" Amy asked as she closed her eyes, trying to stop the tears, but no luck. She began sobbing softly, and Shadow looked at her with disgust.

"My master is Professor Robotnik, also known as Doctor Eggman."

"No, no, no! I can't believe that! The Shadow I know wouldn't work for Eggman... Never again! This isn't the Shadow I know..." Amy said as the tears came faster down. She ran to Shadow, hugged him, and cried in his chest. She felt Shadow tense a bit.

"Please, Shadow... Come back... What did Eggman do to you?"

"The doctor gave me new life. I am reborn. This is the better Shadow, better than the one you speak of."

Amy held Shadow tighter. "No, no! That's not true! The old Shadow must be still in you. He cannot be completely gone."

"Spare me your sobs and pleas, this is the new Project Shadow. I am created to carry off my new masters wishes. To destroy all humans on this planet to build my masters Empire over the whole world."

"To destroy... You can't do that Shadow! Don't you remember Ark? Don't you remember Maria?"

Shadow's eyes went wide a bit. "Ark?" Amy felt Shadow tense more.

Amy looked up. "Shadow? Do you remember?" Then, Shadow's evil smirk went back on his face, and he pushed Amy again on the ground.

"I will spare you this time, but the next time, you won't be so lucky girl."

Amy slowly stood up as she watched Shadow skate away. She had still tears on her face, but she had a determent look.

"I will get you back Shadow... I will get you remember. I promise you."
