Author's note: With the story drawing to a close, any ending remark reviews will be appreciated! I love to take criticism for my writing.
Last time on Shadows and Chaos:
Place: A little behind Comrade.
Time: 1507
Shadow was catching up, but the rate was slower than he liked since he was also carrying Rouge.
Suddenly Comrade's arm just flew off and wacked Rouge in the head, knocking her out of Shadow's loose grip.
"Rouge!" Shadow yelled as he made a U-turn and ran up to her body.
"Ughh… I'll be ok Tiger, you go get 'em." Rouge said pointing to.. was Comrade flying?!
Shadow zoomed off to investigate.
Rouge called G.U.N base. "We are going to need back up….. And possibly a clean-up crew." "Rodger that Agent Rouge." The operator responded.

Shadows and Chaos
Final Chapter
Same place,
Time: 1510
Comrade rode up the scaffolding ramp with human workers jumping out of the way. As calculated he jumped off of the end of the ramp flying towards Vlad.
Vlad was shocked seeing his robot rival come at him on a overheating bike. It was too late to jump out the blast range, so he sent a quick good bye email to Dr. Robotnik, who would read it days later and break down in tears, and prepared to die.
Comrade pushed off of the bike and slammed into Amy, hoping someone would catch her and she would live to fight another day. Amy sailed off of the roof screaming. Comrade landed and looked towards Vlad. Their eyes locked for a split second before the bike landed and exploded.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! The roof exploded roasting the bots into melted mush. Amy was still falling though… who would save her?
Place: Outskirts of Station Square heading inside the city.
Time: 1513
Sonic gasped at the sight of the huge explosion. He hopped off of the spare Tornado he and his friends, Tails and Knuckles, had been racing in back to the city.
Sonic hit the ground running and zoooooooooooomed towards the blast area with a sonic boom. (A/N: Anyone notice how convenient that is? Maybe that's why his name is Sonic)
A few seconds later upon arriving, Sonic nearly ran over Rouge as she stood there stuck in shock.
"Ahhh, watch out Sonic!" Rouge screeched.
Sonic screeched to a halt and said; "Sorry." Then he asked "What the heck happened here?" Rouge responded "I'm not totally sure, Shadow raced after Comrade, who was riding my boss's bike… not sure beyond that. Let's go have a look around."
Sonic nodded at the idea and both heroes walked into the wrecked part of the block.
Rouge was scanning the area when she saw something shining amongst a pile of debris.
"Look, that's the chaos emerald the boss used to power his new motorcycle" Rouge explained, picking it up.
"Hmm, maybe this caused the explosion…?" Sonic theorized.
"Sonic! Sonic help!" Amy's unmistakable voice rang out. Both Sonic and Rouge ran towards the voice. The sight that greeted them wasn't pretty.
Warning: This next part isn't the greatest. If you don't like bloody scenes, it's best to skip this next part.
Amy stood above Shadow pale. The reason was obvious; Shadow had a long piece of glass stabbed into his back and came out of his stomach. Along with a growing puddle of blood.
Sonic and Rouge gasped and ran up to the other duo. "Shadow can you hear me?" Rouge demanded checking for a pulse, it was there. Shadow cracked open his eyes and shifted around a little bit before landing on the chaos emerald that Rouge still had in her hand. Drawing power from it he moved in a smooth motion, both tearing the glass chunk out entirely and grabbing the emerald from Rouge only to press it to his chest doing all of this with mild grunt of pain. The added chaos energy healed the wound quickly until it was only a scar.
"One of many…" Shadow thought sadly while looking at the new scar.
Amy, Sonic, and Rouge could only sit in shock. Just what had Gerald Robotnik created all of those years ago?!
Shadow ignored the stares and stood up fully and strode over the collapsed building. Shadow stared thinking, what could have Comrade been thinking, just about blowing up an entire building?
We be good now :) B) :D
This was when both the G.U.N Commander and his squad showed up. Then Tails and Knuckles landed the Tornado next to the Commander's transport. The newcomers took in the destroyed building, the chaos emerald, Shadow, and was that blood ?
Shaking it off, the G.U.N Commander turned to Tails and said;
"You there, you are good with machines right?" Tails nodded while Knuckles walked over to Sonic and the two quietly discussed what had happened.
"Good," the Commander continued. "I have a favor to ask you, I need these blueprints to vanish and for something to go right around here. Can you safe keep these and build the Cyborg again?" Tails nodded again. The Commander handed him the blueprints.
"Thank you Kid, now. Soldiers! Set a perimeter and let's get reinforcements to clean up this mess." His men saluted and ran around to their assignments.
Tails walked over to Sonic and showed him the blueprints, "Look, I have a new project to work on!" Sonic nodded. "Cool bro, wonder if you could do better with the design." He said nudging Tails. "I'll do it, maybe figure out how Comrade turned out the way he did. Where is Comrade anyway?" Sonic frowned and pointed to the pile of rubble. "He apparently died both killing Vlad and… saving Amy. By pushing her off the building no less, but he's one of the reasons she's still alive." Tails frowned sadly, "I'll never be able to build anything like him." He said on the verge of tears. "Why did he have to die Sonic? Why?" Sonic was took back by the sudden outburst, but understood since Tails didn't like anyone to die after the space fiasco on the Ark. "He was saving the day bud, he understood what it took to do so and did it." The two hugged with Sonic quietly comforting Tails.
Shadow and the G.U.N Commander both stood side-by-side in silence. Then, the Commander broke the pause; "Shadow, I want you to come in first thing tomorrow so that we get your side of the story. And we want to know… where you've been." He added, turning to Shadow. Shadow stood quiet, then responded;
"I'll be there sir."
A/N: Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewww.. it's over. All over. Months of thinking, typing, and staring a blank screen are over. For now, I need to pop in a one shot for Shadow. Then maybe a sequel.
Review any ideas or comments. Till then, later
