Title: Shattered Love

"Hey you guys there's a note here!" Chip announced to his team. Blaze was the first to walk over, her heels clicked across the floor. Chip gently slid the creased note out of a crack of the window with his small fingers, making several more shards break off. "Hey watch it!" snapped Rouge, shaking the pieces of glass of her shoes. Shadow who was still looking threw the wallet of photos stopped at a rather disturbing one. There was a tear threw the middle, the same lady that was alive was the only person you could see on the other half, Shadow couldn't help but wonder who the other figure could have been.

He took the photo out and turned it around in hopes of seeing a written name but all he found were bloody fingerprints. He gazed at it for while, then shot back to reality when he heard Chip landing on a wooden table. Everyone watched as he started to unfold, then read it out loud:

I long for her. I long to see adoration in her eyes.

I long to see the pain in them.

I long to feel the peace and love in her arms.

I long to feel her blood in my hands

I long to feel the blessing in her kiss.

I long to see the hurt in her soul.

I will hold her close and never let go.

"That's all there is." They all shifted their eyebrows in confusion. Chip scratched his head, "well what the heck does that mean?" "Just another one of Scourge's dumb tricks, I say we ignore it" said Rouge crossing her arms.

Blaze noticed some officers outside the house putting emergency tape around things, she sighed. "Perhaps we should head out to town and make sure everyone makes it home safe." Rouge and Shadow nodded. Chip stopped then before they could leave, "Wait a minute, there's more on the back!" they turned fast.

"What is it?" said Shadow, he was still holding the ripped photo in one hand. "He wrote something else on the back, and it has your name on it Shadow." Shadow's eyes widened when he heard his name, he snatched the note from Chip and began reading it in his head.

It breaks your heart to see the one you love with someone else.

Its more painful to know that they're unhappy with you.

But you wanna know what's even worse?

To see the one you love in pain and know there's not a thing you can do about it.

Ha! You'd better hurry up and save her Shadow, the clocks ticking and I'm not much of a waiter.

Shadow froze when he finished reading, the note fell from his hand and fell to the ground like a feather. He heard his friends yelling out to him. "Shadow? What's wrong? Shadow!" but he couldn't here then anymore, all that rung in his ears was a loud heartbeat that increased each millisecond.

Amy? No, it can't be. I just spoke to her on the phone half an hour ago, she was shopping with her friend, then came back home…….then……then?

Blaze put her hands on her hips, "Shadow is there something wrong?" his eyes began to water, as though he would cry. They all saw the scary look on his face but instead of answering them he raced out of the house knocking down the already half broken door. "Shadow wait!" cried chip trying to catch up. Before he left he had dropped the piece of photo and Rouge picked it up, "how long did he have this?" Blaze shrugged.

Shadow sped past several houses until he finally came to Amy's lovely pink home. Chip was a few feet away, flying as fast as his wings would take him. Shadow stopped and stared at her house for a bit then walked up to her front porch trying to stay calm.

Chip came tumbling behind him trying to catch his breath, "Geez shadow, what's the hurry?"he landed on his feet still exhausted. Shadow rang the door bell then tapped his foot impatiently. He didn't wanna just barge in just in case Amy really was in her home.

Too much time passed away and Shadow had no other choice, he kicked the entire door down and flicked a nearby light switch on. Everything seemed normal, no dead people, no mess, no Amy. "Upstairs," he told Chip, who nodded and flew up the long stack of steps. Shadow quickly searched around the downstairs area in any sign of his love.

No luck

He cursed in his mind and continued searching, she had a pretty big house so he didn't want to miss a single spot. A dozen door slams could be heard from up stares as Chip also stopped at nothing to find the pink hedgehog. "She's not in here either" he said slamming it shut.

Shadow finally came to a stop as he finished tracing every inch of the house, all he hoped was for Amy to be walking downstairs with Chip right now. But that hope faded away when he heard Chip yelling she wasn't there.

Shadow was furious, he couldn't believe this was happening. His love, the girl he was suppose to protect, was taken. Probably far away from where he was by now, with a murderer. Shadow didn't know what to do. What could he do? How could he save is precious Amy now? Or worse.

What if he was too late?

He dropped to his knees, tears flowed down his cheeks, traveling to his chin and pouring to the ground. He clenched a tight fist and punched the floor with massive force. He was so angry, the angriest he's ever been in his life, not at Scourge but himself.

He stared at the deep crack he made on the pink tiled kitchen ground and looked at his hands. All fingers where bruised and his bloody knuckles thrived in pain but he ignored it. The words in the note ran threw his mind again. "I guess there's only one thing I can do now," he whispered. Chip flew downstairs seeing Shadow on him knees. "Now I see why you were upset….I'm so sorry Shadow. But hey! Don't worry cause we're ganna find here! We'll all help find her okay?"

Shadow smirked at Chips attempt to comfort him. He stood up, "No, you're all ganna stay here and I'm going to go catch Scourge." He spoke in a serious tone. He turned his eyes in Chip's direction and saw a note in his hands. "What's that?" Chip looked at the note he was holding, "oh this? I found it upstairs in a bedroom. I didn't open it" Shadow took it and unfolded it.

We're having such a wonderful time together

And I'd hate for you to miss all the fun

So why don't you join us

You still remember where Sugar St. is right?

That old building they shut down 3 years ago?

It's a pretty nice place to hang around, oh and..

Don't forget to bring all your little friends

You wouldn't try and face me alone now would you Shadow?

Shadow balled up the note and threw it across the room in anger as he finished reading it. "Just wait till I get a hold of that basterd, I'll have his head in my hands!" Chip gulped. He turned around heading for the door but Chip grabbed his leg. Shadow looked down, "wait Shadow, I'm definitely coming with you! You can't just go alone, who knows what kind of pranks he'll pull on you!" Shadow smirked while shoving Chip off him. "I wouldn't worry about me if I were you."

"Just get back to the team and tell them I went out for a cup of coffee." With that Shadow was on his way, he wouldn't turn back, not for anything. Amy please forgive me, his eyes flashed in depression. I was suppose to protect you. Please be safe…please be safe….please be safe.

Okay my fuel ran out -.- I know it's not a long chappy! Don't be angry with me! but did you like it? Next chapter will show what Scourge and Amy are up to while Shadow is finally on his way to save her…..that is, IF he saves her. Muhahahaha!! So what do you do now? You REVIEW that's what!
