Shadow's eyes began to refocus as he looked at the beast... it was him?! No,the creature was female...yet she looked very similar to shadows likeness...her quills were the same, her fur color was the same, everything was the same...she growled at shadow as she had him pinned down, shadow didn't move, he didn't want any sudden movements to cause her to attack, he looked for an opening, any way he could quickly subdue her. He noticed that she had a large wound on the side of her stomach, he couldn't move his arms, although his legs were free. Shadow wrapped his legs around her stomach and squeezed hard enough to hurt her but not enough to crush her stomach. She screeched in pain, loosening her grip on him. Shadow put his feet on her stomach and pushed his legs up, knocking the girl on her back. The force of the fall knocked the wind out of her lungs, all that was heard from her now was gasping as she tried to catch her breath. Shadow slammed his hands down on the ground, pinning her down."who are you and who sent you here?!" He raised his voice. She caught her breath and spoke," i am xx-013, i was sent here to revive the black comet and fulfill black death's commands..."

"I see now..." shadow said," they wanted to try this again but with a different me...well im not going to let this happen, the black comet will never return and i will make damn sure of it-" shadow raised his fist and punched her square in the face, just enough to knock her out. He stood up, picked xx-013 up and threw her over his shoulder,"you would think she would be able to handle a single punch to the face-" rouge said," are you alright shadow?"

"Im fine.." he responded coldly," lets get her to the doctor so we can properly contain her.." he said walking towards the door. Rouge followed and looked at the girl shadow," are you gonna kill her?" Rouge asked. Shadow shook his head,"not yet...i need to get some answers first... then ill think about what im going to do after that..."
