Hours seemed to pass until Sonic finally gave into his guilt and collapsed to the floor, holding his head and whispering to himself, forcing himself to stay strong and not have a mental break down, especially not in front of Shadow anyway. He could feel Shadow's glare cutting through him and he now knew that this was a big mistake. Shadow himself had done unspeakable things in the past, but even he had morals and probably intended on keep to them.
"I didn't know what else to do" Sonic's words were now nothing but whispers trailing off into the silence. He pulled his knees to his chest, offering himself some sense of comfort and hiding himself from Shadow's view.
"You came to me?" Shadow was now blinking madly, he had to admit he wasn't expecting Sonic to open up to him, and the fact that he'd came to him instead of Tails or even Amy was beginning to play with his mind. What exactly had he got himself into? And why did Sonic believe that telling him was going to make everything go away!
"I had to" Sonic blinked, he hadn't even thought of the words and yet they had still managed to leave his mouth. 'Maybe it was time to go...' Giving a slight sigh of disappointment Sonic rose from the floor and walked heavily past his rival, attempting to get to the door. After all it was clear he was annoying Shadow and that he really wasn't interested. Why should he stay there and possibly get into another fight over nothing? Sonic growled at himself, getting more flustered with the constant questions blocking up his mind; anyone would have thought he was going mad if they could hear what was going on inside his head, alas they couldn't. "I'm sorry to have troubled you Shadow, I don't even remember why I brought myself here but it's obvious you won't help me".
Shadow closed his eyes in frustration. He was trying to guilt trip him into helping him, sorting out HIS problems. Though maybe it wouldn't be so bad if he did help... No he couldn't he wasn't going to help his rival out of the hole he'd basically dug himself. No he had to do this himself!
However it didn't matter how much he fought with himself, at the end of the day he'd probably end up dealing with it himself. Sighing Shadow lifted his arms in the arm as if surrendering to him "Fine!" Sonic's ears pricked up as soon as those words left his mouth. Had he heard him right? "Just tell me where this thing is..."
"Down at the park!" Sonic snapped, but then immediately regretting his words. Raising a brow Shadow rolled his eyes and left the apartment "You stay here. Okay?"
The moment the door slammed shut a wave of relief swarmed over his body, now feeling that everything had been lifted from him. His mood was quickly shifted however when he felt suddenly empty. That something was missing. Why was he missing the guilt? Why did he feel that he needed that adrenalin rush again? NO! Sonic screamed out in anger. Had he secretly enjoyed the feeling that the murder and left on him... His heart sank the more he thought of the answer. He now wished that Shadow had beaten him up, it was what he deserved after all.
