Chapter Eleven
Ok, ok recap. I had supper that was very tasty, sat up with a book for a couple of hours and went to bed after changing…so how the hell did I end up waking up on this table in a room made of metal? Shadow you need to just calm down, this is probably some screwed up nightmare made by your anxieties of being alone for three and a bit days. Yeah that has to be it, I will simply wake up any minute now and find myself in my nice cosy bed.
"Ah Shadow it is good to see you are finally awake." Or not and the Dr found a way to me and kidnapped me.
"Really and what is so good about it? This room isn't all that appealing to me and you could do better." I don't want an answer so just get to the reason why you kidnapped me.
"You are probably wondering why I have taken you from your home and strapped you down on a table in the middle of this room. I have a very good reason and I am sure even you could appreciate a well thought out plan." I swear he loves the sound of his voice.
"Clearly you either plan to use me as a hostage or you want to do something to me. I of course do not care for whatever the reason, it will not go accordingly." That's it just put up a front, act like you are not concerned and just play along with a bored uninterested expression, nailed it.
"Actually using you as hostage does sound tempting so I will also do that. Sonic will surrender if he believes you are in danger. The true reason I have brought you here is so I can make sure you will never get back up. I would rather have one spiky pest than two so eliminating you from the equation is worth all the diamonds in the world." Yeah he really loves his voice, so sad really.
"You know all I heard was bla, bla, bla…oh and for the record you are wasting your damn time. I am permanently paralysed and showing no signs in healing. Go take a look at my hospital records if you don't believe me." So much for being a genius, even Sonic would know to check things out and do some research before making a move, heck Knuckles would and that really is saying something since he does tend to just run head in without thinking…Sonic does to so again it says something about them both.
"Say what? Are you telling me I have done all of this for no apparent reason? I have kidnapped you, sent your boyfriend and friends on a wild goose chase with a rushed-and-quickly-put-together robot to get you alone, only to find out you are never going to heal and walk again?" Yeah way to rub it in Dr, I so appreciate it greatly.
"Like I said you should have done your homework then no time would have been wasted. I would still be at home struggling with my new life and you could be planning something better to fail at." See totally not worried…ish.
Sonic will realise that he was tricked, find me gone and come get me. He will kick the Drs butt back into hiding, take me home and then we can get cosy with each other like planned.
"Well I might as well do what I planned to do, I did after all go through a lot of trouble setting all this up and modifying this old electroshock machine." Huh he is still going to go through with this?
Oh dear sweet Maria he wouldn't, surly he wouldn't hook me up to that thing and shock me non-stop? Ok I take it back, I am totally shitting myself now maybe even literally. Oh no he is approaching me while wheeling that thing, Sonic help me, I don't wanna get shocked, I don't think I would survive without there being some kind of damage to my head.
"No stop putting that over my head…this is pointless don't you see? W-why waste all this time and effort, hey don't turn the machine on, I am talking to you!" It is no use the stupid fat human wont listen to me.
"Before I press this button I think you need to know that I fixed up the machine so it will send ten thousand volts into your body. You will feel pain, you will feel burning and you will end up a mess…in more ways than one too." Oh shit this is the end of my life for sure, not even I can stand that many volts for so long and still come out unaffected by it.
"Anything to say before you go mushy in the head?" Mock all you want, I will not give you the satisfaction in intimidating me and scaring me.
"Yeah I do actually, Gerald will not be proud of you for what you are doing to his son." Yeah that hit home didn't it Dr and I probably should of kept that to myself.
"You will regret saying that." And here it comes, like in slow motion and…
"AHHHH!" Oh shit the pain, make it stop.
"That's right Shadow scream!" Shut up and stop this insanity, I have never done anything this bad to you.
"STOP IT PLEASE!" I am reduced to begging already? Don't care, hurts too much.
"Nope sorry cannot hear you, scream louder, beg more, hoo, hoo, hoo." His voice is barely a whisper to me but I know he is shouting over my cries and the eclectic sounds.
It feels like it is getting worse and he has upped the voltage or something, I am even starting to smell burning. Am I being cooked from the inside out? I hope not.
"STOP IT, I CAN'T…I CAN'T, TAKE MUCH…." It's so painful and I seriously cannot believe I am giving him what he wants, this must be screwing up my brain, I can feel it.
This is worse than what Black Doom did to my head all those years ago, worse than getting shot at and a bullet embedded into my body while having it dug out with no pain relief, worse than that buzz saw slicing through my lower back before all went numb…No more please no more…
Laughing I can faintly hear laughing as I suffer this shocking pain, my head feels numb, my body…my body I can feel jerking from the electricity, it too going numb…how long am I to suffer this, how long until the Dr has had his fun? I can barely let out any cries as my throat feels like it has been burned raw, I feel hot in places and numb in others…when is this going to end?
The room is spinning and dimming out, almost dark now, am I dying? Am I falling unconscious? Will I ever see Sonic again? I…I…hope…I hope…so…
Sometime later…
Beeping, I can hear beeping. Why can I hear beeping? Oh no everything is dark, I cannot see…I can be really dumb at times, my eyes are closed. Ok open them slowly, you do not know what awaits you. Huh not the Dr's little metal room but someplace nice and clean, fresh with disinfectant and…no wait I am in a hospital. Yes I am saved, thank you Sonic, I knew you would come.
"Shadow." Yes and he is here too, walking in and looking...worried? why, I am fine aren't I?
"S-Sonic." Wow my voice sounds very rough and croaky, must be from all that electricity.
"Try not to talk babe, you took on a lot of electricity for a long time. When we found you I wasn't even sure you were still alive after Eggman said what he did to you. Knuckles was the one who got you out as I took on Egghead with Tails. You looked dead in his arms love, you were lifeless and lump. I thought, I thought you were gone." Oh Sonic please do not cry, you will set me off and we will both end up crying.
That's it, take a deep calm breath to calm down. After all I am alive and still here with you. It is nice to know I am able to heal the rest of my body, I know there is nothing wrong there at least.
"You were unconscious for five days and had all kinds of tests done, mostly on your brain, spine and nerves. Good news is you are not in any way brain damaged or have further damage to your spine and nerves down there. The bad news, and I know you are seriously not going to like this, the electricity kind of burned your fur and you have bald patches dotted over your body. Your chest fluff will grow back, the Doctors here say it will so don't freak out."
WHAT?
"Knew you wouldn't want to hear that." Oh so I look pissed? I am outraged.
Damn right Sonic this is the worse possible outcome to all of this ordeal. My precious chest fur is…oh he is not kidding, it's not there anymore. That's it, life is over and there is no point in continuing any longer.
"It will grow back love, it will just take a week or two that's all." I refuse to leave the house until it is back with all of its manly glory.
"Why?" And cue the tears.
"Shadow don't cry, it will be ok." Shut up and let me cry damn it.
"This is, is so unfair. Out of all the things to happen this had to happen." I am such a child or a girl…a girl-child….keeping that name to self.
"You really shouldn't talk so much…ok ok no need to give me the glare, man even when you are crying while glaring it is scary looking. Just stick to a whisper babe." Good still got that and yes whispering will stop my throat from hurting, good call.
"I want to go home, go to bed and stay there until my fur is back." Don't care if I am being dramatic. Fur to Mobians is like clothes to humans, without it you are like naked and showing the world everything.
"You know I do have some more good news for you, it will make you feel better." Yeah the only thing that could possibly put a smile on my face and stop my tears is everything going back to the way it was before I was immobile.
"There is nothing that could possible…" Hey don't go putting your finger on my lips to shush me.
"I think this will…it is almost dinner time here and they are serving steak pie with a side of chips followed by a nice helping of cherry crumble accompanied with either custard or a scoop of vanilla ice cream." Ok I retract my statement that has made me smile, faintly but I am smiling.
That's right move you finger away so I can talk again.
"Custard and lots of it." What I like my custard, don't give me that amused grin Sonic, you know I love me some custard on my puddings…well hot puddings…well cake and pie like puddings.
"I'll have a word or two with the cook." Yes things are looking up now…well until my custard is gone and I get thrown back into reality…not going to think about it.
An hour later…
So good, this custard just melts on your tongue and just…so, so good.
"See I told you this good news will make you very happy." Agreed I am very happy right now.
"What, you think it's the custard that is making me happy?" It is, it very much is but you being here is too.
"Yep." So proud you look for figuring that out, but you are only half right.
"It is not the only thing that has put a smile on my face Sonic." And now for another spoonful…So good.
"Yeah you love cherries too." True, this is true.
"You being here with me is making me happy. The custard and cherries are simply a bonus." A damn good bonus.
"Is that so, well maybe when you get the all clear to leave we could share cherries and custard together." Wow how does he do that? How is it that he can turn any item into a hot sexy thing? I suppose the seductive look he is giving me, and the smooth yet slightly deep tone, helps in the equation of sexy food talk.
"Yeah and will there be spoons involved?" No I just can't do it without wanting to just laugh at how silly this is sounding.
"Oh I plan to spoon ya babe." Shit, I want him now, such a damn tease with his whispery deep voice and his half lidded sexy look. I bet I am not allowed to go home for days and he is making promises like this to me now. I want him close right now regardless if I have no major benefits from it apart from seeing his goofy dazed expressions.
"I…have nothing to add and, I really hope I get to leave tonight. It feels like weeks since we were that close." Please oh mighty chaos above, please allow me to go home tonight so I can have some very nice sex with my boyfriend.
I don't even care that I cannot feel him inside of me I just want to be that close to him, to have him above me and give me tender sweet kisses and touches where I can feel it. An orgasm would be nice too but I know that is probably asked too much. I do miss that feeling too but I am ok with what I am able to do. I'm just glad sex is still doable and Sonic is careful enough to not break my legs or something when he is working down there. Not that it really matters and it is not like I can feel anything if he had before.
"Are you ok babe, you have gone quiet?" I have, damn once again got lost in my thoughts.
"I was just wondering if it would be possible to try different positions." That is a lie but now I am wondering so it is not, lie loophole.
"We could experiment and see what works and what doesn't." Ha now I have him thinking about it.
"First I need out of here, go talk to the Doctor and tell him I am fine." Yes the quicker we get home the faster we can experiment.
(Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed the chapter and story so far. So no further damage and no changes to Shadows situation…or was there? All that high voltage, raw electricity could have done something…Anyway until the next update…)
