Shadow and Espio

By Streak The Chameleon

Chapter 11: Streak's True Self

I do not own any of the Sonic characters. Sega does.

Shadow stood in the main hallway of GUN, occasionally fighting GUN troops that wandered into the hallway.

He'd been waiting for Streak for ages.

"Where is he?" he wondered.

His cell phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Espio here."

"Espio? Where have you been?"

"Well, I got knocked not by Sonic, got chained in a warehouse, and nearly got killed by Cream."

"By Cream?"

"She was throwing daggers."

Shadow whistled.

"So, where are you now?"

"Right behind you." Espio hung up.

Shadow looked behind him. Sure enough, there was Espio.

"How did you get here so fast?"

Espio showed Shadow his wrist. On it was a bracelet similar to Streak's.

"Do you know where Streak is?" Shadow said.

"Yeah. He's being held somewhere below here."

"Okay. Let's go."

15 minutes later…

Streak had managed to knock off the chains holding him. He walked over to Rouge and pulled out a knife from his backpack.

He tapped Rouge on the side of the head. "Wake up."

Rouge slowly opened her eyes. She gasped.

Streak raised the knife over his head. "This is goodbye…Rouge!"

Before she could move, Streak had brought the knife down.

At that same moment, Espio and Shadow burst in.

Espio saw Streak raise the knife. His eyes widened. "Streak, no!"

Streak turned his head and gave an evil grin. He brought the knife down.

Espio and Shadow just had time to move out of the doorway.

There was a sickening cutting sound. Espio looked in the small room. And gasped.

Blood covered the room. The walls and the floor. Streak was covered in blood from head-to-toe. He was licking blood off of his knife.

Streak walked out of the room. "We're done here…" he said quietly.

Espio ran up to him. "What did you do that for!" he yelled. "You didn't have to kill her!"

Streak looked at him. "She deserved it." He started walking to the door.

Shadow walked up and put a hand on Espio's shoulder. "Relax. There's nothing you can do."

Espio sighed. "I can't get over the fact that he's so bloodthirsty…"

"Let's just go."

They followed Streak down the hall.

Meanwhile, Sonic and Amy saw the whole thing.

Amy shivered. "That was…gruesome."

"It seemed that he enjoyed doing that." Sonic said.

"He's worse than Eggman."

"Maybe."

They walked down the hall that Streak, Espio, and Shadow were just in.

"Do you think he's strong?" Amy said.

"He's not as strong as we are now."

"I guess so."
