Twisted Views Chap 4

Unresolved Emotions Part 2

Sonic ran down the pathway to the end of the cannon as fast as he could with shadow beside him. The two hedgehogs were going beyond break neck speed. Only one would be able to win and neither of them were about to back down.

"Alright shadow let's finish this." Sonic said letting his serious side take over. This made shadow slightly nod his head in agreement.

"I think it's time I showed you the true power of CHAOS CONTROL!"

At that moment they both sped up doing a sonic boom in the process. Soon they were attacking each other. Punch after punch and kick after kick. If you were watching this fight from above all you would see is flashes of blue and yellow colliding with each other as if battling for dominance on this endless track, but once they collided one last time each hedgehogs fist connected with the others face forcing both of them off the pathway.

"This is the ultimate!" Shadow said as he used chaos control to get back on the pathway. Sonic, who happened to be watching remembered he still had the fake emerald. He quickly held it up and yelled.

"I'll use your move, CHAOS CONTROL!" He yelled teleporting back up. Both hedgehogs continued to run, neither of them backing down from this fight.

"Not bad hedgehog, but this is the end!" Shadow said as he sped up ahead of Sonic. Once he was far enough ahead he turned around and raised his hand as golden energy engulfed his hand.

"Chaos Spear!" he yelled sending spears of light down at the blue blur. Sonic had no choice but to dodge the onslaught of this attack. He knew as soon as he got to shadow he would have to end this fight. The countdown to the cannon firing was coming to an end and that would mean the earth would be gone, So without thinking Sonic came at shadow with a spindash. As he came at the ebony hedgehog, who was getting ready to block the attack, he made himself bounce and use his homing attack to make himself spin around shadow at high-speed. The blue hedgehog soon created a blue tornado that engulfed Shadow sending him upward into the air.

"Sonic Wind!" he yelled as he stopped spinning and landed on the blue hedgehog acted quickly and charged up a spindash and soon blue lights of energy began flowing into him. When he had enough energy he stopped his spindash and waited as if he was on a starting line ready to sprint at any second.

"Ready..." Sonic said as Shadow started falling back down. When the ebony hedgehog was in Sonics line of sight he launched forward in a super-charged spindash hitting his doppelgänger. "GO!" he yelled as he sent shadow sprawling across the pathway. The ebony hedgehog laid there unconscious on the ground as Sonic passed him.

"Heh, heh I have to remember those moves." he said as he sped to his destination. As he ran he couldn't help but hope his friends were ok; especially, his pink love interest. Oh how he loved her so much. At that moment Sonic heard a noise that made him freeze on the spot and make him look up.

"NO, DON'T TOUCH THAT!" Said a mysterious figure as he was pulling someone off a machine.

"What the..." the blue hedgehog questioned as he stepped forward. In front of Sonic was a static image of 2 mysterious figures. One figure quickly pushed his friend away and pressed something that made them disappear. The hedgehog couldn't believe it, but for some reason he could careless about it. He just had the feeling he needed to hurry and stop this cannon, so he kept running. He also kept a mental note to think about what he just saw.

-With Amy-

Maria, this girl must be made of something really tough because every time Amy tried to knock her block off, she would just stand there and shrug it off. The pink hedgehog, who was completely exhausted, continued to try and get to the core. She needed to finish this...for Sonic.

"You know, I think the blue hedgehog got lucky." Maria said as she dusted off her clothes. Amy reluctantly left her battle stance and her ears perked up slightly.

"What?" the pink hedgehog questioned hoping this would be an evil monologue so she could catch her breath.

"What I mean is, that hedgehog doesn't have to take any of the constant verbal and sometimes physical abuse from you. All that love wasted on you."

Amys anger reached its peak at this point. How dare she say that, What right did she have!

"SHUTUP SHUTUP SHUTuP!" Amy yelled as she pulled back and swung her hammer as hard as she could. Once her hammer connected with the blonde hedgehog it sent her flying into the core hitting a control panel that was near the computer. The computer started to spark and almost instantly a video popped up on the screen. The video showed a blonde haired human girl standing beside shadow as they looked down to the planet below. Maria got up slowly staring speechless at the screen.

"W-who is-" she tried to ask but was interrupted by the girl.

"Shadow" she asked.

"Yes Maria?"

"What do you think it's like on Earth"

The blonde hedgehog shook her head in disbelief in her confusion she hit the computer again freezing the video. "A-arent I...the...the". she said not wanting to finish this question. Of course she's the real Maria, there's no doubt she was. Amy, who had been watching, really didn't know how to go about the situation. She had a mission yes, but seeing how this girl was distressed, the way she stared at the video made Amy feel sorry for her. Her thoughts were interrupted by Tails on the Walkie Talkie.

"Amy, come back and don't try to destroy the core! It may-" The pink hedgehog interrupted him.

"Explode...I know. I'm coming back Tails, so we can come up with a better plan." She said this reluctantly. Her heart was still plagued with revenge but her rational thoughts had broken through to her. Good thing too or she would've died and she knew that if sonic saw this he would instantly be against it. The pink hedgehog slowly walked back to where her kitsune friend was looking back at Maria, who was still staring at the screen as if she was looking into a mirror. She just shook her head and continued out of the room deciding not to interfere with what was going to happen next.

-3 Mins later-

As Amy walked back into the room where Tails was she saw Eggman on the floor defeated and Tails breathing heavily.

"I did it...Sonic" she heard him say. At-least the kitsune did something to honor her blue friend, but her on the other hand didn't even come close to what she intended to do. Amy knew she was selling herself short, but she didn't care. A sigh escaped her lips as she walked to her friend, but something she thought she'd never hear surprised her.

"Hey guys" a cocky voice said over the Walkie-Talkie.

"Sonic!?" they both said in unison.

"Take a look outside!" he said sounding pleased with himself.

Tails and Amy both looked out the window. The watched as the cannon started charging and energy gathered in it. Soon the energy looked ready to be released, but as it tried to escaped the cannon started to explode with several other explosions signifying that it had failed and the Eclipse Cannon was never going to lay waste to the earth. They squinted their eyes and saw a blue hedgehog hanging on to an antenna and smirking as he did a thumbs up to his friends. He added a wink for good measure just for his hero, his love, his rose.

unbeknownst to them Eggman had grabbed the real Chaos Emerald and went to the core and placed it. He could've sworn Maria was there protecting it, but it didn't matter to him as he just laughed in victory not noticing the warning sign on the screen.

-30 Minutes later outside the Ark-

There they were 3 golden hedgehogs. Sonic, Shadow, and surprisingly Amy. This time around the Chaos Emeralds were actually working for her, but how did these three end up out here in the vastness of space. Well, to explain, Proffessor Gerald (the creator of shadow and the ark) had been working on Project shadow and he was releasing the original Shadow Prototype. His reason for doing this is because of one thing...Revenge. He wanted revenge on the people who killed his granddaughter Maria. The blonde human girl, not the hedgehog. This in turn made Maria the hedgehogs snap. She couldn't take that she wasn't the real. She was just the creation of a man who probably thought she was destroyed after the incident.

After her breakdown the blonde hedgehog seemed to be called off by something and left to find out what was uttering her name. The others didn't have time to worry about her because as the message ended the Ark started hurling towards Earth. Thats when Eggman Tails came up with a plan that everyone would have to work together to stop the behemoth station. Shadow wasn't included as he was nowhere to be found at the time, but Amy found him on her way to help her friends. Somehow she convinced the ebony hedgehog to help and he teleported himself and the pink hedgehog to a specific destination.

The two appeared to where Sonic and Knuckles had arrived only to see a giant biolizard in front of them. What else they noticed was that a certain blonde hedgehog was attached to the lizard with nothing but a blanklook in her eyes. She had become one with the creature as it was her duty from the beginning. Shadow took it upon herself to take the creature on giving Amy time to catch up with Sonic and Knuckles. The red echidna wasted no time in saying the chant for the Master Emerald. Within an instant the emeralds appear before them making the Ark stop, but the biolizard roared and used chaos control to teleport away. To the 4's surprise Eggman told them that the Ark kept hurdling towards the planet and the lizard had attached itself to it. Sonic looked to Shadow and Amy. All 3 nodded in unison as they gathered energy. The chaos emeralds encircled them as they transformed into their super forms and head outside to stop Maria and the biolizard.

"Alright you 2! Let's stop this monstrosity before it reaches the planet." Amy yelled as she summoned her hammer.

"Yes Ma'am!" Sonic said eagerly. He was ecstatic that Amy wasnt mad at him anymore but he had to focus.

"Alright" Shadow said being utterly serious. He knew that Maria wasnt the real one. It was obvious but he was about to just let her destroy planet and herself. After all she did still have her memories and had her personality even if it was rough around the edges.

The 3 hedgehogs rushed at the biolizard and started to attack it. Tails even pointed out that the red energy orbs on its body may even be power that it's trying to find a way out. Our 3 heroes aimed for the orbs desperately trying to stop the enormous station and creature from crashing into the planet.

Soon the biolizard roared as shadow launched an attack him, in turn detaching Maria from it. The hedgehog quickly caught her and looked to his new comrades. Sonic looked ready to finish it and Amy, well Amy looked exhausted. It's been awhile since she was super and she slowly losing power.

"Amy! Shadow and I can handle this! go back to where everyone else is." Sonic said trying to reason with her.

"N-no, I-I can't fail again!" she yelled as she was about to charge at her enemy. Sonic sighed and knew he was gonna get in trouble for this later but he had to do it.

"Chaos...Control!" He yelled teleporting Amy back on the ark where everyone else were.

"Dammit Sonic! I-i'll g-get you!" she tried to say as her super form dissipated turning her back into her normal self. She watched as shadow and Sonic tried holding back the behemoth. Both of the hedgehogs nodded to each other as coming up with the same idea.

"CHAOS!" Sonic yelled

"CONTROL!" Shadow finished.

Within a bright light the Ark was transported back into its orignal orbit. Sonic was about to celebrate until he looked back to see neither shadow nor his blonde companion were around. The super powered hedgehog decided to look for them; Meanwhile, Shadow was desperately holding maria as they hurtled towards the planet. As the she opened her eyes, all she saw was shadows.

"I did it...I fufilled my promise to you Maria. You and the people of this planet" he said with a slight smirk on his face. The blonde hedgehog held him tightly as she started to cry. He really considered her Maria even though he knew she was just a false copy. He honestly and truly cared for her. Both hedgehogs accept their fate as they hugged each other tighter.

-In the Ark-

Everyone was happy, even ol' Eggman was giving a smile or two. The only one who wasn't happy was Amy. Don't get her wrong she was glad this whole incident was through with, but Sonic had no right to take her out of the battle. She was ready to stomp her foot in frustration when she heard the automatic door slide open revealing the blue hedgehog with a not so happy look. This made Amy keep her anger from being unleashed upon him. After all, she was happy to see him, she was even hoping to see him come in smiling and apologizing. She was gonna forgive him anyway.

"Sonic!" she said.

The blue hedgehog looked at her and slightly nodded making Amy get slightly worried. That's when she noticed that 2 hedgehogs were missing.

"W-wheres Shadow and Maria." she asked. Sonic just walked up to her and put a gold ring in her hand. The pink hedgehog stared at the ring already knowing what this symbolized. She kept her head down silently mourning the 2 hedgies. Everyone else did the same and after a while they decided to go home. Sonic watched as everyone else left the room. He would usually be right after Amy but he couldn't face her. He wasn't able to save Shadow or Maria. As he watched Amy leave she suddenly stopped and turned her head to meet his gaze. She was smiling at him which made the hedgehogs heart flutter.

"Sonikku how about when we get back we actually start that date." she said sincerely. She had to giggle when he gained a goofy smile. She walked out of the room signalling him to follow which he happily obliged. Before he completely left the room he stopped and turned back to give one last look.

"Sayonara...Shadow the Hedgehog and Maria Robotnik"
