Chapeter 7- The Two Partish thingy
Shadow was once again sitting on his hill watching the quiet village below him. He sighed and turned to the sky with a bored expression. He suddenly felt an unknown presence looking at him.
"Who are you?" he asked not bothering to look.
"Your sister." a voice replied cheerfully.
Shadow sat up and looked at Haze. He didn't say anything really, he just stared. Then he shook his head and laughed slightly.
"You're not gonna give that up are you?" he asked with a hint of amusment.
Haze shook her head. "I really am your sister Shadow. Don't you want a sister?" she asked.
"It's not really that its just..." Shadow sighed. "I just never really thought I had any family somewhere in this world... or any other world come to think of it."
Haze tilted her head a little. "Well... I haven't ever met you before. and it would be a little hard to believe, so I understand." she whispered.
Shadow looked up at the sky again. "Hmm... well yeah, you're right... but I don't mind having a sister at all."
Haze's eyes brightened. "Really?"
Shadow shook his head and smiled in her direction. Haze laughed and hugged him. After they sat and watched the stars together, Shadow and Haze went back to the village and went to his home.
Meanwhile...
Sonic on his bed thinking. He kept replaying what he saw in Midnight's bedroom eariler. He was mad, oh yeah he was MAD! He liked Midnight and everything but she wasn't Tails. Tails wasn't dark and mysterious. Tails wasn't an angry person. Tails wasn't even the same color as Shadow... Sonic blamed Shadow for everything now. He hated him.
It was all Shadow's fault that Tails had been turned into Midnight. It was all Shadow's fault that Tails attacked him and Knuckles at the Chaos emerald base. It was Shadow's fault that the base was destroyed. It was especially Shadow's fault that they were all in Eggman's base and Metal Sonic nearly killed them all. And more importantly, it was Shadow's fault that Tails got caught in that final blast, BOTH times.
Sonic scowled angrily to himself. Shadow to him was nothing but another villian. And that wasn't about to change. Just as he was about to stand to leave, there was a knock on the door. He answered it to see Amy looking hysterical.
"Sonic come quickly! There's trouble!" she screamed.
"What? What's wrong?" the blue hedgehog cried.
"It's the Chaotix detectives! They're all hurt!"
Sonic ran down the stairs with Amy and saw all of the Chaotix detectives wounded badly. Hope and Cream were trying to help them but it wasn't doing too much.
"What happened?" Sonic shouted.
"It w-was... T-Tails..." Espio muttered it a halted voice.
Everyone gasped. Just then Shadow and Haze ran in followed by Rouge.
"We heard what happened!" Haze exclaimed.
"We came as quckly as we could." Shadow stated, worried.
Sonic glared at Shadow angrily. "It's your fault!" he hissed.
"Me!" Shadow repeated, obviously shocked.
"Its your fault Tails is the way she is!" Sonic shouted angrily.
"My brother would never do that!" Haze cried coming to Shadow's defense.
"Did you know your 'brother' used to work for Eggman too?" Hope snapped.
Haze quieted. Shadow's eyes hardened as he glared back at Sonic.
"You think I have anything to do with this now?" he growled, his voice sharp and threatening.
Sonic scowled. "That's not what I said. I said its your fault she's like this at all."
"You can't blame me. You upset her in the first place. If you hadn't upset her, she wouldn't have came willing to the darkside." Shadow said in the voice he hadn't used for a year.
Sonic clinched his fists. "You are really starting to bug me..." he muttered.
"You wanna make something out of it?" Shadow challenged in a dangerous tone.
"You want to fight me?" Sonic said feigning suprise. "That's a laugh." he added with a careless shrug.
Shadow's eyes glinted with the familiar fury and anger he had once felt. His were balled into tight fists as he stared with hate at Sonic. His shoulder was twitching as if he was trying not to hit the blue hedgehog that stood before him. Haze touched his arm softly.
"Shadow don't." Haze warned.
"Or what?" he snapped.
Haze backed away slowly. "Shadow what's wrong with you?" she asked, horrified of the way Shadow looked. His eyes were filled with hatred and anger, they seemed to have some what of a dark haze in their color.
"I'm sick of acting!" he hissed in a low tone. "I'm sick of all of you!" his voice raising as he looked at Hope. "I'm especially tired of you. You and your fake anger. Ha! I tried acting like I liked any of you, but this..." he paused and smirked in Sonic's direction. "This really makes me wish I killed you when I had the chance."
Haze gasped as she stared at her brother. She couldn't believe how strange he was acting. Shadow had never acted like this in front of her. To her knowldge he couldn't act like this. Sonic on the other had was frowning and angrier than before.
"I knew it!" Sonic yelled as he charged at Shadow, fists raised.
Shadow simply raised his hand and grabbed Sonic's arm, twisting it behind his back. He began to laugh a horrible laughter as Sonic began to scream. Knuckles suddenly jumped towards Shadow, ready to hit him. Shadow let go of Sonic and disappeared. Knuckles looked around in confusion.
Haze's eyes were filling up with tears. She looked around for any trace of her brother. All of the sudden Shadow appeared at the top of the stairs with something in his arms.
"Forgive me dear Haze." He said with a fakely sweet tone. "I didn't mean for you to see me like this, but these idiots just really pissed me off."
Knuckles, Sonic, Vector, Espio, Charmy, Hope and Amy were all standing now, reasdy to fight Shadow if he tried anything else. But Haze stepped in front of them.
"Shadow what are you doing...?" Haze whispered.
"Something I should have done a long time ago." He hissed.
Shadow raised one of his hands to show the red chaos emerald. He smirked as he saw all the shocked expressions on everyone's faces.
"See ya 'round Sis." he said as his body began to glow. "Oh yeah and Sonic? NExt time you see me... I'll kill you. CHAOS CONTROL!"
Shadow began disappeared in a flash of light. Sonic ran towards the stairs and dove towards him and disappeared along with the dark hedgehog.
"SONIC!" Amy screamed.
"Shadow..." Haze whimpered as she fell to her knees.
-Meanwhile in the forest...-
Midnight was watching the moon without a care in the world. She shook her head and smiled deviously. Shadow Fox climbed up next to her.
"What are you doing?" he said in annoyed tone.
"Thinking of a plan, don't bother me." Midnight replied shortly.
"Why can't we just barge in and kill them all?" Shadow Fox screamed.
"Because that's not all we're trying to do. Besides, I want to give them time to prepare..." Midnight said with a smirk.
"FOR WHAT?" Shadow screamed throwing his hands up.
"Fighting all of them at the smae time would be fun. And I especially want to see Sonic suffer. I want him him to die, slowly and painfully. I want to be able to hear his screams of mercy and beggin my forgiveness. I want to watch his life slip away from him with so much pain, I'll be able to remember ever single moment of it." She said in an almost dreaming tone.
"Okay... he's your nemesis..." Shadow fox said looking away. "I just want to get my hands on that red guy. He's really annoying from what I can tell." he added with a laugh.
"Hmph... whatever." Midnight smiled at her brother.
Phantom appeared in front of them. "There has been a slight falling out in the enemy territory."
"Do tell." Shadow Fox said with intrest.
"Shadow the Hedgehog left with the Chaos emeralds. Sonic disappeared with him. I imagin their fighting as we speak." Phantom said with a chuckle.
"Good." Midnight said with a smile. She then jumped down from her tree and walked deeper into the forest. "I want to see how badly they try to kill each other..." She stopped and looked back at the two. "Before I step in."
With that she disappeared within the balckness of the forest without a trace.
