Hey, sorry I haven't updated for a long time, I've been tied up latley


EGG CARRIER

"Shadow, do it for me…"

Shadow awoke from his sleep in a cold sweat his looked around to see that he was in a jail cell. There were metal bars and a steel floor in his cell. A light shone in from a small bared window, judging from the sun, it was around noon .

Shadow also heard the sounds of jets, and to his surprise when he looked out the window, he saw that he was in a ship and it looked like they where miles above the ground!

Shadow jumped away from the window and made a faint little squeal.

"What's the matter, surely you're not afraid of heights…" said a robotic voice.

Shadow turned to see E-102 standing behind him. Shadows anger boiled inside of him and he lunged at it, but the cold metal bars stopped him. He started waving his hands through the bars attempting to smash it.

"Cool it…" E-102 said.

E-102 pressed a button on the wall that sent a shock through the bars, and Shadow was violently electrocuted.

"Gah!" Shadow squealed jumping away from the bars. E-102 made a noise that sounded like a robotic laugh. Shadow turned away in disgust.

"For what purpose did you take me here…" Shadow said, still refusing to look at him. "I took you here because Master Eggman wishes to see you" it replied.

"What if I don't want to speak with him?" Shadow said stubbornly.

E-102 pointed its gun at Shadow, "You don't have a choice"

Shadow looked at the robot frowning. "What are you gonna do? Knock me out for another 2 days!" Shadow yelled. "Negative. You have been unconscious for 12 hours."

Shadow walked closer to the robot, "You said that Tazer would nock me out for 2 days."

"I lied"

"Hmpf!" Shadow said again refusing to look at E-102.

E-102 kept its gun pointing at Shadow but did not shoot. Shadow kept his gaze away from it. There was a long silence… but it was finally interrupted by Shadow. "What is your name?"

"What?" replied E-102

"Your name" Shadow repeated, "tell me your name"

"Oh, you wish to know my code number, it is E-102" it said proudly.

"No! You're real name!" Shadow said in frustration

"E-102…" it repeated

"Your name, like how my name is Shadow!"

There was another long silence until E-102 finally said: "I used to have a name before I was reconstructed."

"Reconstructed?" Shadow turned to look at it.

"Affirmative I was rebuilt by the doctor after I turned on him"

"Turned…on him? Can you still turn on him" Shadow asked hoping it would say yes and let him go free. After yet another long silence it finally said: "Negative I am incapable of error"

"So," Shadow started once again turning away, "you lack free will"

There was a long silence and I mean LONG it was like three minutes, and over that whole time neither of them budged or even moved.

"It was…," it started to hesitate "…Gamma"

Shadow faced him. "So… when he rebuilt you he left you without a real name?" The robot nodded.

"Well then," Shadow started walking up to the bars, "take me to your master… Gamma"

Gamma… I like it, the robot thought.

Gamma pressed another button on the wall that made the bars slide up into the ceiling. Shadow walked out of the cell and walked down the hall to Eggman's chamber, Gamma following close behind. As soon as they left the prison chambers, they entered a long hallway. Shadow walked along it, his arms gently waving back and forth. Gamma was surprised that Shadow made no effort to escape.

"I thought you said you did not want to see him?" Gamma said

"I lied" Shadow smirked

As soon as they exited the extremely long hallway they stepped into another hallway that was exactly the same as the one they were in before. Shadow stopped for a moment and raised one of his eye brows but a nudge from Gamma told him to keep moving.

After they were about halfway down the hallway Shadow decided to question Gamma about when he turned on the Doctor.

"So… why did you turn on him?"

"It was a girl?" Gamma said

"What?" said Shadow

"A girl by the name of Amy Rose made me realize that the doctor was using me to get what he wanted, he even made me destroy my brother, Beta." Gamma replied.

"And?" Shadow asked, "What happened after that?" Gamma was silent for a moment then said: "Error. Information is beyond my knowledge."

"What do you mean by that?" Shadow asked

"I do not remember anything after the point where I left the Egg Carrier when it was crashing." Gamma replied

"You mean this is the second Egg Carrier?" Shadow exclaimed, "And why did it crash?" before gamma could answer the door slid open revealing a large dining room. The dining room had a GIGANTIC window on the side wall. The floor was made of stainless steel and it was so shiny that Shadow could see his reflection in it. There was a long table that stretched out all across the room; the table appeared to be made out of the same stainless steel that the floor was made out of. At the far end of the table was a chubby fat guy dressed in red and he had a long orange-brown moustache. "Ah, Shadow come, take a seat" he said pulling out the chair to his left. Shadow walked over to the chair and sat down while Gamma stood behind him.

"E-102… leave us" the man said pointing to the door.

"Aye, aye Master Eggman" Gamma said walking out the door.

So… this fat ass is the Doctor? thought Shadow.

Eggman didn't say anything until Gamma had left the room, "So Shadow how are you feeling"

"Can the small talk Doctor! And, how do you know my name?" Shadow yelled standing up. Eggman chuckled a little then said: "I know who you are Shadow the Hedgehog… the ultimate life form."

"Me? The ultimate life form…?" Shadow said confused

"Yes… if you weren't the ultimate life form how else could you have survived falling from outer space." Eggman said. "Outer space…" Shadow repeated, "Why did I fall from outer space?" Shadow asked confused."

"Do not worry yourself Shadow, all will be revealed… in time…" Eggman said leaning back in his chair. "NO!" Shadow screamed pounding the table with his fist. "I WANT EVERYTHING TO BE REVEALED RIGHT NOW FATASS!"

Eggman chuckled again then said: "Okay, lets make a deal you do you something for me and I reveal everything to you…Agreed?"

Shadow thought for a moment about this, "It depends what you want me to do." Shadow replied. Eggman sighed then pressed a red button that was on the table. Upon pressing it a small hologram appeared. It was a hologram of a blue hedgehog that looked exactly like him except it had emerald-green eyes instead of red eyes that Shadow had.

"This is Sonic the hedgehog…" Eggman started, "he is a great enemy of mine and has foiled my schemes one too many times and enough!"

Shadow stared at the blue hedgehog; Sonic the Hedgehog… that name… it's so… familiar…

"I want you too kill him!" Eggman yelled

Shadows looked at Eggman, "Look, Doctor I am not interested in your troubles if you want this Sonic guy dead… then kill him your self!" Shadow started to walk away, "Don't worry I'll let my self out…" he muttered as he walked off. "Sorry Shadow but I'm afraid I don't take no for an answer!" Eggman said pushing another button.

As soon as he pressed it Egg Pawns swarmed into the room they all had laser guns. Shadow stopped and looked back at Eggman who was now standing up.

"This is your last chance…" Eggman said.

"No." Shadow replied frowning.

"THEN DIE!"

The Egg Pawns all shot at Shadow at once but he easily jumped away, landing on the table then he destroyed ten of them using a series of Homing attacks. The Pawns kept shooting at him but they could never get him, he was to fast and before long they were all destroyed. Shadow looked at the ruins of the Egg Pawns, "Hm, maybe I am the ultimate life form!" Yes, he thought, I must be…

Shadow looked over to see that Eggman had fled out of the room. "He's so pathetic… I don't have time for this!" Shadow said walking out of the room. Shadow found himself in a lab, there was computers everywhere some drawings of new robot designs, and a door marked:

DO NOT ENTER. Shadow slammed through the door. "Does he really think a sign will stop someone, that door wasn't even locked!" Shadow laughed. Shadow turned around to see something shocking, Shadow froze and his jaw dropped.

Shadow was staring at countless capsules, and inside the capsules was… him surrounded by a green liquid.

"So…" said a robotic voice shadow looked to see Gamma standing on the other side of the room, "You know about the robot clones…"

"Gamma… please tell me… am I… a robot… too?"

Before Gamma could answer Eggman appeared over him in the Eggpod, "Yes" Eggman said, making Shadows heart sink. "You and Gamma are my creations! It's your purpose, your destiny too serve me!" Shadow fell to his knees and didn't say anything he just stayed there staring at the ground.

The Eggpod slowly hovered over to him.

Me! A robot I can't believe it…Shadow thought. Suddenly Shadow remembered when that Egg Orbs struck him and he bled. That's when Shadow realized it…he had blood, he couldn't be a robot! He looked up to see the Eggpod right above him a claw came out of it and started to grab him. Shadow got up grabbed it before it could grab him, then he ripped it out of the Eggpod.

"What?" Eggman said. "I am Shadow the Hedgehog…I am not a robot, I am the ultimate life form…you can't tell me what to do!" Shadow said.

Suddenly, Shadow disappeared in a bright yellow flash it was so bright Eggman had to shield his eyes. When Eggman could see again he looked around frantically, "Where'd he go!"


MOUTIAN OUTSIDE STATION SQUARE

Shadow reappeared on a mountain there was a few small patches of grass but mostly dirt. "Whoa… what happened?" Shadow asked himself. He felt a strange energy around him, and when he looked down he saw a green emerald at his feet. Shadow reached for it, and as soon as he picked it up he felt power following through him.

"A Chaos Emerald…" Shadow said, "I remember these… I remember this power…"

Shadow looked over to see a large city. Shadow started to walk toward it hoping to find answers there.


SPACE

A comet surrounded by flames was heading towards earth. On the comet was a dark-figure. The figure was not human it had only 3 fingers and its skin was black. It had three eyes all of them glowing red. The figure had no legs and it just kinda floatedthere.

"There," it said in a deep voice. It was pointing at earth.

"That is the planet we have been looking for…"
