Shadow searched far and wide he held the three emeralds he had: The green, dark blue, and red. He closed his eyes and he absorbed the energy from them he floated in the air, he wasn't in his super form but had enough power to fly. He then leaped into the sky to search for the egg carrier. He looked around him and spotted nothing, but the time being was gone as a supersonic jet fighter formation flew over him, he had five F/A F-18 super hornets on his tail.

He sighed "I didn't want to do this.'' he said he used chaos control and he was flying backwards carrying a M-60. "Target spotted, fire AMRAAMS.'' the wing leader ordered as the barrage of missiles came to shadow he fired the powerful machine gun quickly at any opposing missile that came his way. He kept an eye on the F-18's "Damn, alright boys arm sidewinders and FIRE!'' the formation let the volley of missiles loose as they approached shadow at super speeds. They got closer, but at the last second he teleported away and was on top of one of the F-18's he fired in the engine as a fire erupted the pilot ejected. Shadow took a jump and fired more bullets into two more of the F-18's the pilots ejected as well.

"Forces pull back, we got other guys coming for him.'' one pilot spoke to the other squadron members. Shadow continued to fly forward at incredible speeds, he looked behind him and saw three F-22 raptors tailing him "They just don't give up.'' he said tiredly he turned around and opened fire, the wing leader did a barrel roll and fired its machine gun, shadow was hit by three of them, blood came from the wounds. He shook his head he came to a complete stop and the F-22's roared passed him, now he was on the chase. "Watch out boys that hedgehogs' behind us.'' the leader said into the headset.

Shadow let his M-60 fall and instead he carried a pack of C4's his hovershoes were on full blast as he caught up behind one of them he tossed one onto a F-22 the pilot saw it and quickly ejected before the jet exploded into flames. Shadow set his sights on another one he flew under it and planted it. He flew next to the pilots window and knocked on it, shadow pointed to his C4 and pointed to the underside of the jet then shadow gave a thumbs up, with that the pilot ejected and the C4 detonated destroying another one as well, now all that remained was the leader. Shadow used chaos control and made the C4 disappear, shadow got on the front of the jet, he then punched his hand inside the center of the jet and pulled out a couple of sparking wires.

The leader pressed the eject button and the pilot landed to safety. Shadow had other plans for the F-22 he got in the seat and commandeered it, he held the dark blue emeralds and put it to the control panel, the chaos energy made the jet stay in flight. Shadow grabbed the control stick and at supersonic speeds he spotted the egg carrier in the distance. "I'm coming my friends, I'm coming.'' he said to himself and with that being said he was intent on saving his friends no matter what.

Back in Station Square, the president came from his home in Westopolis. He strolled in with his limo, he had to be sent to the G.U.N. headquarters. The limo stopped in front of the tallest skyscraper in Station Square, above the entrance of had the G.U.N. symbol on it. He walked in with his agents at his side. He got in the elevator and headed to the top level. He exited the elevator and was at the command center. It had rows of consoles and men and women working the computers, and people walking left and right to different areas. The president walked to the end of the room and he saw General Richards. "Nice to see you general.'' the president said shaking his hand "Likewise Mr. President.'' he returned. "What's this all about anyway?'' the president asked, the generals expression changed to angry and he looked out the window. "You remember when shadow saved the planet from the black arms, right?'' Richards asked "Yes I do, shadow was a great hero to us in Westoplolis.'' the president replied. "Well were you told of the destruction of Fort Irwin then?'' he said. The president nodded "Well, the so-called shadow the hedgehog was the source of it.'' he said grimly. The president was shocked, but didn't show it. "Mr. President, he must be destroyed.'' he told him "General, I don't know what happened to shadow, but if that is the case then so be it, he must be taken care of.'' the president said it but didn't enjoy one bit of it.

The F-22 shadow commandeered flew across the skies, he had the Egg Carrier in his sights and pulled on the throttle at full speed. In the bridge of the mighty flying air fortress, robots were working on computers researching for Eggman's new robots that would soon be created. Eggman sat in a chair in the front of the large room, and in front of him was a large window. He got up out of it and walked over to a big metal cage holding, ash and friends. "Shadow will come and save us! You know that!'' ash shouted at the doctor. Eggman chuckled "Shadow may be the ultimate life form, but he can still be killed.'' he said evilly.

Shadow took to the clouds and flied above the egg carrier he flew over it and lowered the jet far away from it and aligned his jet with the bridges large window. "Shadow will never find me.'' he remarked, the jet approached, "Shadow is too weak, for my metal copy.'' The jet was a mile away "Shadow is doomed.'' after Eggman said that the jet shattered through the window and skidded across the floor of the bridge, it destroyed many robots in the process. Eggman was laying on the ground covering his head, he got up and walking through the cloud of smoke was Shadow. He walked to make himself seen, ash and the gang erupted into cheer. Shadow smirked and crossed his arms. "Shadow will you ever stop!?'' Eggman yelled angrily. "No Eggman, I'm the ultimate life form and you better do what is best and let my friends go!'' he said clenching his fists and in a fighting stance. "Tell that to him.'' eggman showed his hand over to a door it exploded and walking out was Metal Shadow. "Try and beat him.'' Eggman commented, and Eggman ran like coward and made another escape. Shadow and metal stood their ground, shadow teleported and was gone. Metal used his sensors and radar to try and spot him, he felt a tap on the shoulder and he saw the fist of shadow impacting his face. Metal fell to the floor, shadow quickly ran over to the cage with his friends locked up, he grabbed the bars and pulled the cage door of the hinges and he tossed it aside. The gang ran out of the cell and shadow followed them, he looked back at metal shadow recovering from the punch he gave.

"Keep running!!'' shadow ordered, he used chaos control and an AT4 was in his hands, he aimed and fired the rocket, metal jumped forwards, but was hit by the rocket and he slammed to floor. He followed his friends they kept running and with luck the came upon the hangar bay. They went down the stairs and shadow spotted a drop ship, "Everyone in the ship!'' he exclaimed. When entering it, they gathered at the controls, "I'll fly it.'' ash said, "Are you sure?'' Brock asked. He nodded, so the rest got in the back of the drop ship and got in the seats and fastened the belts around them. Ash grabbed the control stick he pulled up and the engines fired up and the ship hovered above the ground, and he pushed forward and the ship flew out of the hangar.

Shadow got beside him, "Fly to station square.'' shadow told him. Ash raised an eyebrow, shadow closed his eyes half way looking disappointed, shadow went to a console and found station square on the radar, shadow then slammed a red button. "The ship is on auto pilot, and we'll be there in no time.'' he said. "Alright.'' ash nodded. The ship was left alone, for a while until the ship shook. Shadow opened the drop ships doors and spotted Eggman's robots firing upon the vessel. Shadow closed the doors, he went to the back of the ship, and on a small balcony was a mounted chain gun. He grasped the firing mechanisms and reloaded the ammo and bullets sprayed from the barrel. The robots dropped like flies and he kept turning the turret and continued to fire. The robots ceased he looked out to see nothing left, he then spotted metal shadow jetting to their location. Shadow reloaded the ammo and fired shadow went left and right and went in circles and barrel The robots dropped like flies and he kept turning the turret and continued to fire. The robots ceased he looked out to see nothing left, he then spotted metal shadow jetting to their location. Shadow reloaded the ammo and fired shadow went left and right and went in circles and barrel rolls, dodging the bullets that came his way.

Shadow ripped the turret of its spot and jumped off the safety of the drop ship and went straight forward to metal shadow firing the bullets, metal shadow was being beaten by pure lead as the bullets continued to fire. Shadow kept firing then no more bullets, he threw the gun away. The two were still following. Shadow grabbed metal by the neck and punched him left then right then left, all very powerful punches too. Shadow used chaos control and was on top of the drop ship, the wind blew against him, he was breathing slowly and looked around him and no sight of metal shadow. Then metal dived down at him and they plunged through the roof of the ship and out of the bottom, the pokemon trainers saw it happen in front of them because that's where metal and shadow crashed through.

The two went down through the air, and below them was Station Square. Shadow kicked across the face then gave the faker an uppercut. Metal went swirling flying down and he crashed in the middle of the largest intersection the cars in there stopped in their tracks. Metal rose from his crater, shadow however gave down landed on top of him with his feet first into metals cranium. Shadow did a backflip and stood in a fighting stance, metal got up and instead he fired into the sky using his jet rockets on his back. Shadow watched him get away, but he let it go. He saw behind him the drop ship land the doors opened and his friends came out and they ran over to him all happy that he made it out alive. They gathered around him, dawn hugged him and then may, then the rest of were in a group hug. When shadow finally had room to breathe he smiled at his friends "Thanks you guys.'' he thanked them. Together they left the incident and walked down the street.
