Free as a Bird in a New World

*Cancelled unless my interest is reignited* Shadow left the past behind him, and he's lived in the in the present ever since, but the most important part of his past made an unexpected yet welcome return. (Takes place after Generations or Lost World. Meaning looooong after the events of the Shadow The Hedgehog, of which most plot points will be ignored.)

3. Exchanging Note

Before proceeding with this chapter we would like to to know that Professor Gerald's notes have been paraphrased for the layman to understand. And what that means is that the writer is a layman.

Project [blank] entry 1: After studying the Black Arms alien blood injected into Project Shadow, I couldn't in good heart inject my beloved granddaughter with the same thing. I've doomed the planet, with my hasty decision with that alien. But I'm certain Shadow can and shall take care of it, he's exceptionally strong, he's possibly the ultimate life form. But for now he's Maria companion. I'm getting off-topic, I need to start from scratch with Maria. The cure for N.I.D.S. still eludes everyone, I'm all out of options now, I will have to resort to liquidizing some Chao… I'm not happy that I will have to resort to that.

The mystical energy within them kept them alive for thousands of years. It's the only way for Maria to live longer. There one problem, it doesn't work on Humans, so she'd have to become an animal. My previous experience with animals haven't been so great.

The Biolizard had grown too large and needed life-support, Shadow went a little too well all things considering, needed inhibitor rings to not accidently destroy everything in sight. I need a more harmless animal. Maria likes canaries, I'm going with that. Project Freebird. I need to work on this in secret in my spare time.

Project Freebird entry 2: I've made some amazing progress. The screams of the Chao was a reminder that I do this for the good of all kind. The Chao would become extinct if we were to use them to cure diseases. For Maria's sake I'll continue this just for her. Her new body has been completed and the memories have been uploaded.

Project Freebird entry 3: Something hit me; I may be overestimating how well the canary Maria clone will take her new body once she awakes. It might be a little traumatizing to her once she learns she's actually dead. I cancel this project, back to finding the cure, worst case scenario I use Shadow's blood.

This pod was built to be indestructible as it's supposed to be launched to earth once the ARK is in a critical condition. So once goes something horribly wrong, Maria will live on.
