Shadow's Remorse
We woke up Back on Angel Island. Shadow Looked frighteningly scared into his reflection. I felt him. He thought he was giving just Blame, and then the truth slapped him in the face. That happened to me before. I thought the news cast that day was lying when they said that South Island was destroyed. Then I actually went there to find only family and a few friends had survived.
"Knox… How accurate is this recording?"
"A hundred percent."
Shadow let out a gruesome howl as the reality sunk in.
"Sonic… Can you help me Join G.U. N.?"
"I don't see why not."
Shadow had been brought into G.U.N. and his greatest fascination seemed to be the Firing Range. Shadow asked that a letter be sent to our father Lionel that he would not be going back. I have a friend among the South Island Guys that is pretty good with technology. I explained that the message should be sent to my buddy Miles Prower III A.K.A. "Tails Jr." A.K.A. "Tj."
I guess I should explain where even a special-looking, talking animal gets a hold of the required education to handle heavy machines of the age? Well the humans helped set up institutions, such as schools and colleges on South Island after the Repopulation, and they educated us in ways that would help us achieve greater advancement in technology. In high school, I was an outcast, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. I had tons of friends, but they almost all fell under different groups than I did, Knox's son, Kid was a jock. Tj was a techno NERD! There's a distinction between geek and nerd and he makes that clear. Shadow was an Emo kid, and Amy was an enthusiastic cheerleader.
Then the purge happened and not all the kids survived. Kid did, thank god, but he went to another country in the Northlands after the Purge.
Agent Natasha Lincoln got the message and sent it to Tj. A week later we got a response from my dad. An agent had been kidnapped. The terms for his release were that I be returned to the South Island Survivors. The thing that made me consider it when normally I wouldn't was that the agent was Adrian.
