CHAPTER 3-4

Shadow slowly arose from the floor with sadness and hate. "Sonic..." He then clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Damn it. Silver, you bastard. You're one dead hedgehog." He slowly walked away from Sonic's dead body and began to look around the room until he heard a girl from below him. She sounded like she was trying to get out of something. "Who's that?" Shadow looked down at the first floor and saw a pink hedgehog trying to break free from the shackles that was holding her against the wall. He smiled a bit, "Amy!"

The pink hedgehog started to look around the room until she spotted a black hedgehog above her. She made a wide smile, "Shadow, you came!"

"Hang on, Amy. I going to free you." He took out his rifle and loaded it with bullets.

Amy's eyes widened, 'He's not going to shoot me free...is he?'

After when Shadow finished reloading the gun, he pointed it at the shackles around Amy.

"Hold on, Shadow!"

"Don't move or I just might miss."

Amy was then completely still so Shadow wouldn't shoot her by accident.

Shadow pulled the trigger to his gun and started to shoot the shackles off of Amy.

Amy screamed as the bullets knocked the metal shackles off of her body. She was only screaming because she was exaggerating. She then stopped screaming when she was no longer against the wall. She looked up at Shadow with a small smile laughing a bit.

"What was with the screaming? I thought I actually killed you or something."

"I guess I got a little scared." She then heard a door open beside her. She looked over and saw men with black robes approaching her. She looked back up to Shadow, "Shadow!"

"Use this!" He threw his machine pistol at Amy.

She caught it and pointed it at one of the ganados. She then just threw it at his head knocking him out cold on the floor.

Shadow took his hand and hit his forehead with it, "Dumb broad." He took out his rifle again, "I guess I'll have to do it. Get down, Amy!"

Amy kneeled to the floor with her head down in her knees.

Shadow began to shoot the ganados that were approaching Amy. Afterwards they stopped coming for a short time. "Amy, get up and check that door beside you."

Amy got off the floor and ran towards the door beside her trying to open it, but it was locked. "It's locked. I can't open it." She then saw more ganados coming after her through another door. She saw one ganado wearing a red robe with something shiny hanging from his neck. She looked up at Shadow, "Shadow, kill the one wearing red."

He nodded and shot the man wearing the red robe in his leg killing him. He also shot the rest of them.

Amy ran over to the man wearing the red robe and took a key that was around his neck. She ran over to the door and inserted the key in the key hole. She opened the door a bit. She looked up to Shadow, "It's open."

"Go on. I'll see you later."

She nodded and went through the door. She was now in a room with one ganado walking around until he spotted her. She just stood there not knowing what to do. 'How am I going to beat these guys. I need Shadow. Oh, Shadow I need you.'

The ganado came closer to her.

Amy stepped back and began to run away from him. She then went into another room where another ganado had spotted her. She began to back away from that one as well until she was grabbed around her neck by the one behind her. "Leave me alone!" She used her foot and stomped on his foot making him let go of her. She began to run out of the room and saw a door. She went through the door and saw that no ganados were in that room. It was nothing but a weird device setting in the center of the room. She looked at it for a moment then tried to turn it because a handle was sticking out of the side, but it wouldn't turn. She then noticed a round hole on top of the device. "It looks like something fits there, but where am I going to find it." She looked around the room more but she didn't find anything round that could fit into the hole. She then decided to leave the room and beside the door she came out of, she saw another door. "Maybe it's in there." She walked into the room and all she saw was a pathway leading to the next door. While she was walking through the room, she saw a square stone tablet on top of the fireplace beside her. She took it off the fireplace and studied it, "Where could this go to?" She then made it into the next room and the room was very dark. She could barely see anything, but she did see a long line of shiny suits of armor down the narrow dark hallway. She continued to walk down the hallway until she came into another room and it was full of suits of armor. She saw some kind of puzzle that had stone tablets for pieces on a table but she didn't mess with it because she saw another door ahead of her. She didn't know how to open it because it had no doorknob or hole in it. She looked over to the puzzle on the table and walked over to it. "Great puzzles. I hate puzzles." She began trying to arrange the stone tablets in order until they were arranged into some kind of different insignia. She also noticed that a piece was missing. She took out the stone tablet that she found and placed it in the puzzle. Afterwards the door opened and she went through the door and saw a blue chest in front of her. She opened it and saw a stone shaped like a snake. "I think this goes to that wall." Then the door closed behind her. "What the-" Then the chest that she had gotten the stone snake from had turned over to the other side revealing a red chest. She opened the chest and saw a weird round object with a weird insignia to it. "This must go to that..." She was cut off when the door had reopened and was shocked to see what had came out of the door.

About four suits of armor came from the door holding axes in their hands were walking towards Amy. They raised their weapons in the air ready to strike them down at Amy.

She quickly moved out of the way and began to run out of the dark room. When she made it out of the room, she was about to go out the door and head into the room with that weird device that required a round object until the suit of armor that was near the door held its axe in the air struck it down towards Amy. She jumped back and fell on the floor making the suit of armor miss and afterwards it broke down into pieces. She got off the floor and ran out of the room and went into the room with the strange device. Once she got in the room, she saw the device and placed the round object in it. She then saw the handle to it and started to turn it making a picture in front of her rise up revealing a ladder. She climbed up the ladder and was in a small passageway that led to a door. She went through the door and saw a black hedgehog with his arms crossed waiting for her. She smiled, "Shadow!"

The black hedgehog faced her and smiled as well, "Amy, you made it."

She ran over to him and hugged him.

Shadow hugged her back and patted her head, "You did good."

She broke away from him, "This is great. Now that we met up with each other, we can go look for Sonic and see if he found that plasma sample."

His ears then flopped down and faced Amy with sadness.

Amy was wondering why he was so sad, "What's wrong, Shadow?"

He said nothing and took her hand leading her to Sonic's dead body that was still lying on the floor.

Amy's eyes widened and looked at Shadow.

He still had his eyes on Sonic's dead body, "Silver did this and took the plasma sample as well."

Amy did nothing but cry into Shadow's chest.

Shadow took his fingers and stroked through Amy's pink hair, "Stop crying. Crying doesn't make things better."

"But Sonic..."

He took Amy's head away from his chest and made her look into his red eyes, "I know but if we want to help him, we have to get the sample back from Silver. That's what he would have wanted."

Amy broke away from Shadow and wiped her tears away from her eyes.

"Come on lets get going."
