Attack on Station Square


(Shadow the Hedgehog - Intro HD)

(KC Undercover Theme Song)


(Ayla's POV)

*It's been a full month since me & my friends defeated the Metarex. Today, I was riding on my board, on my way to Floral Forest Village, where Cream, Cheese, Vanilla, & Gemerl live. Only I wasn't visiting them. I was on my way to visit Cosmo. It was just me. My brother was at Knotehole, spending time with Sally. I flew into the village, waved to Gemerl when past him on the street, & soon arrived at Cosmo's house, which was an old hollow oak tree. Cosmo was outside working on her garden, which had many tiny seedlings growing, when I arrived. I then jumped off my board & turned it into a cube*

Ayla: Hi, Cosmo.

*Cosmo looked up from her garden & smiled when she saw me*

Cosmo: Ayla! Oh, how wonderful to see you. Please come in and I'll make us some herbal tea.

*We both went inside her house & she made us some tea. She also brought out some cookies. We then sat down on the couch in her living room*

Ayla: So, how have you been?

Cosmo: Oh, I've been going just fine. Everyone in the village has been very kind to me.

Ayla: I'm glad to hear that.

*We spent the next few minutes talking. Just about life & such. This until Cosmo brought up a question about a topic I haven't thought about in a long time*

Cosmo: Um . . . Ayla?

Ayla: Yeah.

Cosmo: I've wondering this for a while. How exactly did Shadow get his Chaos powers?

*I was completely shocked when I heard her ask that. I put my cup down on the table & looked down at my feet*

Ayla: It's not really something I like to think about.

Cosmo: Oh, I'm sorry! If you don't want to talk about it -

Ayla: It's fine.

Cosmo: Well, it's just that, Chaos Energy is one of the most powerful things in the galaxy. So, I was curious how Shadow's creator got his hands on something so powerful.

Ayla: That makes sense. *I was quiet for a minute* Tell me. Have you ever heard of an alien race called . . . The Black Arms? *Cosmo froze just as she was about to take another sip of her tea* I'll take that as a yes. What do you know about them?

Cosmo: I've heard stories about them from my sister, Galaxina. She told me that they were a violent race of aliens who traverse space in a moving planet called the Black Comet. That they traveled from world to world consuming entire populations. They were as evil as the Metarex. But no one has heard any news of them for years.

Ayla: Probably because Shadow completely wiped all of them. *Cosmo looked shocked* I know. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't witness it myself with my own two eyes.

Cosmo: How did it all happened?

Ayla: It may have happened a long time ago, I can still remember it as if it were yesterday.


(Flashback - 7 Years ago - Earth)

*It all started a month after Valentine's Day. The city was having a festival that they held once every 50 years called the Fire in the Sky Festival. It was a lot of fun. There were games, food, & music shows. My band even performed a few songs. Half way through the party, as the sun was going down, I went looking for Shadow. I was planning on asking him if he wanted to hang out with me. Just the two of us. I found in just outside the city, standing in front of a tree*


(Shadow's POV)

*I stood on a hill, looking over Station Square as the sun was beginning to set on the horizon*

Shadow:*in his mind* What's going on with me? Why do I feel so uneasy? And why do I keep remembering that day? The day lost Maria.

*I closed my eyes & grimaced as those memories appeared in my head again*


(Flashback - 50 years ago)

*I was running down a hallway in the Ark, holding on to Maria's hand. Just then, a group of G.U.N. soldiers appeared behind us. Maria reached for me as a soldier raised his gun. Then I heard a loud "BANG"*

Shadow: Maria!


(Present Time)

Shadow:*in his mind* Maria . . . I miss you. I wish you were here with me.

Ayla:*off-screen* Shadow!

*I looked down & saw Ayla running towards me*


(Ayla's POV)

*I ran up the hill & panted when I got to the top*

Shadow: You alright?

Ayla: Yeah. You . . . Are . . . A hard hedgehog to find.

Shadow: I was trying to keep it that way. So, what brings you here?

*I could feel my cheeks starting to turn red*

Ayla: Oh, . . . Um . . . I was just wondering if you wanted too . . . You know . . . Uh . . . *suddenly, dark red clouds started to appear overhead. then they began to form a red light & a swirling vortex. thunder cracked as black terrifying monsters of different shapes & sizes fell out of the vortex & began attacking the city. I could hear people screaming down in the city* W - What are those things?

Shadow: I don't know. But we have to stop them. You ready to go?

Ayla: Ready. *in her mind* This isn't what I had in mind by us spending time together, but I'll take it.

*I got my board & we were about to head into the city, when I heard a dark, ghastly, & eerie voice*

?:*off-screen* Shadow . . .

Ayla: Did you hear that?

Shadow: Yes.

*Suddenly, a grey & red flying six armed starfish with one orange & red eye appeared before us. It's eye glowed red & then an image of a large black alien with a set of twin wide horns, spines on his scalp, three red bestial eyes, three-fingered paws, & no lips wearing a dark colored & gold robe with two drapes hanging from the back, a set of spiked ornaments, & having jewels adorned on a loose necklace. Shadow pushed me behind him*

Black Doom: As you can see, the day of reckoning will soon be here. Find the seven Chaos Emeralds and bring them to me as promised.

Shadow: Huh? Who are you? And what are you talking about? *instead of getting an answer, the image disappeared & the starfish flew away. suddenly, explosions happened all around us. Shadow held me close to protect me from them, making me blush even harder. soon, they were over* Are you okay?

Ayla: Y - Yes.

*We both then looked in the direction the starfish flew away in*

Shadow: Just what was that all about? Who was that? And what did he mean by "Day of Reckoning?"

Ayla: I don't know. But I don't think I want to find out.

Shadow: But I guess if I want to find out, I'll have to play his game.

Ayla: You're not really thinking of giving the Chaos Emeralds to that . . . That creature are you?

Shadow: It's the only way to get close enough to him and learn how he knows me. And I want you to help me find the Chaos Emeralds.

Ayla: Me? Why me?

Shadow: Because you can sense when the Emeralds are near. Which will make it quicker and easier

Ayla: I guess . . . That makes sense. Okay. I'll help you.

*He then put a small smile on his face & put a hand on my head*

Shadow: Thank you.

*I blushed again*

Ayla: Uh . . . No problem.

*Shadow then skated towards the city. I got out my board & went after him. When we got there, it was complete chaos. Those creatures were everywhere & parts of the city were on fire. The sight made me feel horrible. Parts of the city still haven't fully recovered from the flood Perfect Chaos caused*

Shadow: Hmm . . . "The Promised Time" huh? Well then, time to go and fulfill this promise.

*We zoomed through the city until we ran into my brother*

Ayla: Sonic!

Sonic: Ayla! *I jumped off my board & went to hug him. he hugged me back* Are you okay?

Ayla: I'm fine. Where are the others?

Sonic: Amy, Tails, Knuckles, and the Chaotix are helping citizens evacuate and Cream, Cheese, Gemerl, Chris, his friends, and your friends have all gone home and are going to stay there until it's safe.

*I sighed in relief*

Ayla: Thank goodness.

Shadow: If we're through with the pleasantries, we have a city filled with aliens that need to be exterminated.

*He zoomed away*

Sonic: What's eating him?

Ayla: It's a long story. One I don't have time to explain. But I'll explain once this is over, I promise.

*I got back on my board & went after Shadow. We zoomed through the city, passing G.U.N. soldiers & defeating any alien in our path. Once we got back on Main Street, I started to feel a headache & my heart was beating fast, which can only mean one thing*

Shadow: Is there a Chaos Emerald near us?

Ayla: Yeah. And I think it's right under us.

*Shadow looked around & then spotted a manhole. He opened, jumped down into the sewers, & soon came out with the green Chaos Emerald*

Shadow: Right on the nose.

Ayla: Great! One down, six to go.

*Just then, Death's Eye flew towards us. This time it spoke in Black Doom's voice*

Black Doom:*off-screen* Well done, Shadow. From now on, my eye shall follow and observe you for me. Now, start by finishing off these soldiers who dare to defy me.

*I started to feel nervous*

Ayla: Shadow . . . You're not going to . . .

*He ignored me & skated away. I went after him. Much to my relief, he didn't attack the G.U.N. soldiers. But he did attack the Black Aliens. Along the way, we passed red trees with glowing red fruit, that didn't look all that appetizing. Luckily, Shadow destroyed those too. With my help, of course. Just then, I felt another headache & my heart raced again*

Shadow: Another one already?

Ayla: Yep. *I looked around & spotted the blue Chaos Emerald* There! In that jewelry store window!

*Shadow smashed the window with his spin dash & grabbed the Emerald*

Shadow: And that makes two. This is going quicker than I thought.

Ayla: Well, with me helping you, was there ever any doubt?

*Shadow just smirked & ruffled my hair*


(Third-Person POV)

*At G.U.N HQ, a man with grey hair, peach skin, one brown eye (right), one green eye (left), wearing a G.U.N Commander uniform was looking over the people working the computers. Just then a soldier ran up to him*

G.U.N Soldier: The Black Aliens have hit six major cities around the world and every city is reporting significant damage and casualties. Among them, Station Square has received the heaviest casualties due to its weakened defense system. Downtown Station Square has been almost completely destroyed. Unconfirmed sources have also reported seeing a black hedgehog in Station Square.

Commander Tower: Shadow?

G.U.N Soldier: Yes. And one of the blue hedgehogs is with him. The one called Ayla.

Commander Tower: Deploy the troops now! And if you find Shadow with the Black Aliens . . . Then kill them all!

Commander Tower: But sir, isn't Shadow on our side . . . Sir!? And what about Ayla?

Commander Tower: I gave you an order, soldier! He's evil and he's the enemy! Just make sure to get Ayla out of the line of fire! *the soldier ran out* You can't fool me, Shadow! This time, you're mine.


(Ayla's POV)

*Shadow & I were admiring the Emeralds we found when Death's Eye flew over to us*

Black Doom:*off-screen* We've found the third Chaos Emerald in this city. Our mission here in done. Now get going!

*Shadow growled at being given orders by the alien, but skated after Death's Eye. I got back on my board & followed him*


(Third-Person POV)

*In space, above Earth, inside a giant black rock (the Black Comet), Black Doom was watching Shadow & Ayla through Death's Eye*

Black Doom: It seems this hedgehog girl has a strong connection to the Chaos Emeralds. How intriguing. But she might also become a problem. It seems Shadow is beginning to show signs of disobedience.

?:*off-screen* May I make a suggestion, Father.

*Black Doom turned around & a male alien with dark gray/pale purple, red skin, a white muzzle, yellow teeth, & glowing gold irises with black sclera came out of the shadows*

Black Doom: Ah, Eclipse. My finest creation.

Eclipse: Father. *he went to stand next to Black Doom & eyed Ayla* I suggest that we leave them be for the time being. After all, finding the Chaos Emeralds is going much faster than we thought. At this rate, we will be ready for the Day of Reckoning ahead of schedule.

Black Doom: Hmm, I see your logic.

Eclipse: And once she has served her purpose to our plans, I'm sure she'll make quite a tasty meal for the eggs in the nursery. *in his mind* And perhaps a little snack for myself.


(Ayla's POV)

*We zoomed down an empty highway, which was kind of creepy. A big black ship flew above us*

Shadow: We've just gotta keep moving!

Ayla: Right behind you!

*We zoomed & I could hear Black Doom's voice all around us*

Black Doom:*off-screen* Shadow . . . My soldiers have already secured the Emerald.

*We just kept going & battled every Black Alien in our way. We have attacked the ship, but it had a force field around it. All of our attacks bounced off of it. Parts of the highway were broken, so we also had to watch our step as we battled. Soon, we came across a line of red goop. Shadow went inside & traveled through it, which was really gross. Eventually, we got through the force field & destroyed the ship. Just then, we ran into Death's Eye*

Shadow: Hand over that Chaos Emerald or else!

Ayla: You'll have to deal with the Ultimate Tag Team! *Shadow gave me as amused look* What?

Black Doom:*off-screen* So, Shadow, you and your little pet think you have a chance against me . . . Do you?

Ayla:*in her mind* He did not just call me a pet!?

Shadow: Look . . . I don't take orders from the likes of you. But I'm not here to fight you, either. We're collecting the Emeralds to find answers. So why don't you just back off!?

Ayla:*in her mind**blushing* Did he just say "we?"

Black Doom:*off-screen* You still don't know your place, do you? Black Bull! I summon you! *a large black & grey creature resembling a cacodemon came out of the ground. it had a blubbery body, black & red wings, spikes, one green eye, white fangs, & hands with pointy white claws next to it's mouth* Behold! The wrath of Black Arms!

Ayla: Whoa! Now that's ugly!

Black Doom:*off-screen* Come, Black Bull! Burn this entire city and it's inhabitants to ash!

*Shadow & I attacked the Black Bull. It spit out flying Black Arms. I sliced those up while Shadow took care of the overgrown worm. Most of our attacks bounced off it's blubbery body, but we soon learned that it's eye was it's weak spot. We followed it up & down city streets & battled it until it was destroyed. Once we did, we recovered the yellow Chaos Emerald*


(Third-Person POV)

*At the White House, the President was looking out the window of his office when the phone on his desk rang"

Christina Cooper:*on the phone* Mr. President. We've received a report from the Central Information Agency. Our ground troops have successfully pushed back the Black Aliens from Station Square. We also managed to suppress enemy forces in five other cities. There's also reports that the CIA's mainframe has been compromised. We're investigating the incidents now. It is a strong possibility that this was also committed by the Black Aliens.

Mr. President: Tell the Commanding Generals that the United Federation will never surrender to terrorists!

Christina Cooper:*on the phone* Yes, Mr. President.

*The President looked at a picture on his desk of Sonic, Ayla, & all their friends that was taken after the Tournament last month*

Mr. President: Our planet has been saved multiple times by you heroes. Now mankind must protect this peace . . . At all costs. *he looked out the window again* We must stand united to defend our world against these invaders!
