I'm going to write another Shadow story but with him and Amy. Enjoy!
Shadow was left there cradling himself in loneliness, his only friends had died right in front of him and the one person who he loved more than Maria had just sacrificed herself in order for him to try and save the world. But as much as Shadow had the fight inside of him, he was in no mood to fight anyone. He wanted to crawl in a dark hole and never come out, to get lost in his thoughts and himself.
He had a moment of clarity in his manic mind; during the clarity he heard a laugh, a maleficent laugh. He looked up to see Super Scourge laughing at the power he had gained.
"Who would've thought that a loner hedgehog's weakness would be another loner hedgehog? That stupid girl was just like her mother, she could've had everything but instead chose that kitchen boy. Sacrificing herself for you was suppose to be an honourable act? She was worthless to me anyway, once she had destroyed you I would've killed her next and taken over with my real girl."
Shadow lifted his head up and stood to his feet so they were toe to toe.
"Starr was not worthless," Shadow said defending his dead love. "And her death will not have been in vain. CHAOS CONTROL!"
Before Scourge knew it, the Chaos Emeralds were swirling around Shadow now as they were being absorbed into him. Shadow had now changed into his Super form. Shadow used a Chaos Spears attack to knock Scourge back, in which he was successful. Shadow floated towards his dead friends and used the Chaos Emerald's power to revive his friends. They were consumed each by a bright light and when the light had cleared, there were standing on their feet and Sonic and Silver had changed into their Super forms as well.
"Let's do it!" Sonic said encouraging his Super team.
"For everyone we love!" Silver stated pumping a fist in the air.
"For Starr," Shadow finished. They turned around to see Scourge picking himself up. They each growled under their breaths as they stared at their schoolmate and enemy. Scourge was ready to fight them, and so it began. The four super hedgehogs flew at each other and started battling. Using Chaos Spears and Blasts the dutiful, gold hedgehogs attacked the super purple, corrupt hedgehog; however it was like trying to argue with yourself in the mirror. Super Scourge was more powerful than the three put together; they fought persistently but they were no match.
"It's no use!" Scourge cackled. "You three lights have no chance against me! I'm indestructible!"
"Three lights?" Silver thought our loud. "That's it!"
"What's it?" Sonic asked.
"Remember the prophecy Starr told us when we first met her? It said 'the seven powers will join the four lights, and the four lights will destroy the black mist when it leaves the original light.' Don't you see? The seven powers are the Chaos Emeralds and the four light are us!"
"But there's only three of us here! Who's the fourth one?"
"No," Shadow discerned. "Not the last light, the original light. Doom Mist was inside Starr and left her. If she's the 'original' light..." He couldn't finish his sentence for he remembered what had happened to her.
"We can bring her back!" Sonic said. "The Chaos Emeralds; if we concentrate on her return, she'll live again! It worked on me."
"You shall do no such thing!" They heard a sinister voice; Scourge had spoken and was coming right at them ready to attack again. Feet away, Scourge got a kick in the head... Literally. Scourge was on the ground, looking at a white boot with a pink heart on it.
"You think we're gonna take orders from you?" Rouge said pressing her foot into his face even more. She used her powerful legs to kick Scourge into the air. When he was coming down to fall on the ground, Scourge was hit with Amy's Piko-Piko Hammer and was sent across the playing field.
"We'll hold him off," Amy told the three Super hedgehogs. "You focus on getting Starr back!"
The Freedom Fighters had reunited, ready to show Scourge what the forces of good were made of. With Amy's hammer, Rouge's legs, Knuckles' fists, Tails' flying abilities and Blaze's fire abilities Scourge was outnumbered. Swinging of tools and fists and feet, the Freedom Fighters fought against the powerful purple hedgehog, giving him everything they had.
Meanwhile Sonic, Shadow and Silver were using this time to focus on reviving Starr. They stood three feet apart, in a triangular formation, and raised their arms where they were almost grabbing the other's hand. They closed their eyes and set their mind on Starr, they thought about how fun she was, how understanding, how loving. When the power of the Chaos Emeralds were at a high power, they yelled "chaos control" and the powers of good swirled around and through them. A bright light consumed their immediate area, blinding not only them but the others as well. When the light had cleared, in the middle of the boys's triangle, floated a gold hedgehog wearing a blue dress with white trim. Shadow was feeling overjoyed at what he saw; Starr was alive again as Super Starr.
"Thank you Shadow," Starr said to everyone. "It's time to end this thing once and for all!"
They turned around to see the others on the ground like dead files, with Scourge floating over them laughing at their defeat. He looked over and was shocked to see the girl that he just killed alive and breathing.
"You don't get to win Doom Mist," Starr said to her nemesis. Starr flew fast at Scourge and pounded herself against his chest, he cried out in pain at how powerful she was. Starr threw Scourge on the ground and used her new Chaos powers on him. The other super hedgehogs joined Starr in her fight against Scourge. With four against one, the Four Lights were winning and Scourge was on his hands and knees.
Starr raised her hand ready to give the coup de grĂ¢ce when Scourge raised his hand to her. Starr froze where she was and started to scream, she naturally grabbed her chest from the pain. Scourge squeezed his hand into a fist, which made Starr scream even more; she fell to her knees and her breathing became staggered. Shadow flew over to her and asked, "what's wrong?"
"I still have control over her," Scourge answered for her. "She accepted me into her. That was her choice, she knew this would happen. I'm a part of her now, I control her. She's mine!"
Scourge continued to literally squeeze the life out of her, she couldn't fight him much longer.
"We have to destroy him now!" Sonic said to her.
"No," Starr said. "This is my fight that you guys shouldn't have fought for or with me. But if you want to help me, I need all your powers."
The three Super hedgehogs gathered around her and used Chaos Control on her. The intensity of the force was so strong both Starr and Scourge disappeared. Everything was in a blur, everyone was knocked out from the blast. After a couple of minutes of calmness, everyone woke and found themselves still in the strange dimension. Sonic, Shadow and Silver were out of their Super forms; they looked around for Starr but she was gone. Then they saw something was different: there was a giant purple, fire-like globe in the middle of the area. While staring at the strange globe, Tails noticed something coming out of the sky; it came in sparkles. The sparkly particles gathered to make a person; they had a sleeveless dress on with puff on the collar, it was tight from the top to the knees, where there it flailed out, they had angelic wings and wore a sliver crown.
"My friends," the angel hedgehog said.
"Princess Starr," Blaze whispered out loud.
"Thank you for saving me. I was able to save Scourge from Doom Mist, he and Fiona know know nothing about me or Doom Mist. As princess, it's now my duty to destroy this evil from this world, Doom Mist has absorbed all the power he got from Scourge and is in this globe in his ultimate form."
"Let us help you," Shadow said to her. "Let me help you."
"No. In your state you cannot pass through the globe, however if you were Super Shadow you might have been able to destroy Doom Mist with me."
"What will happen once you destroy Doom Mist?"
"Being in my princess form, killing is a sin so once I destroy the evil of him and me, I shall die."
"NO!" Shadows started to run towards Starr to try and stop her, but he was stopped. He looked down and saw water flow gently around his torso, she was stopping him from moving forward.
"Goodbye Shadow. Goodbye everyone."
Starr jumped into the air and flew into the globe with ease. Shadow ran towards to globe to try and follow Starr to help her, but the globe was too powerful. He screamed in pain and fell back on his back. The others saw him, not saying anything, as they watched him relentlessly get up and go at the globe again, getting the same results. He tried summoning Chaos Control but it wasn't working. Everyone felt terrible for Shadow.
"Chaos Control!... Chaos Control!...Chaos... Chaos... Why? Why isn't it working?" Crying and slamming his fist in the ground, angry at the whole situation, Shadow felt no hope for Starr's safety. Everyone was thinking the same thing: wishing they could help Shadow save Starr. Feelings in sync with each other, everyone that had a Chaos Emerald inside of them, their hearts started glowing the colour that their Emerald was. The glows turned into bright lights of hope as Shadow absorbed the light and was turned back into Super Shadow. Now more confident in rescuing Starr, he walked into the globe ready to fight for Starr.
Almost done! Final parts coming up then writing the next story. Stay tuned!
