Chapter 14, perturbed discoveries.
A/N
Sonic: Hi my Fans! I was told to tell you how thankful we are that you made it through the first 14 chapters.
Shadow: 13. They're about to read chapter 14.
Sonic: details. *scoffs* anyway, ahem, I didn't know this before but the reason Silhouette isn't here now is because she's in bed... asleep.
Shadow: *sigh* she's Jet lagged.
Sonic: that and writer's block.. That's no fun. Wait... I didn't know they could get Jet lagged.
Shadow: They? I Am The Ultimate Life Form, and I don't get jet lagged, nor do I like Jet very much.
Sonic: whatever, Faker! That's what I was told, so That's what I said. She also wanted to apologize for being late with this chapter, we just explained why...
Shadow: *evil grin*
Sonic: *scoot chair over* oh and the last chapter wasn't the only time you could guess what Tails' surprise from Knuckles is. we will announce the chapter before who got the closest guess. So keep guessing.
Shadow: uh huh. Can you give them a hint?
Sonic: umm it's for Tails. It's probably something he'd like.
Shadow: you don't know?
Sonic: neither do you so, you make a guess...
Shadow: I'd rather you read the script and get this over.
Sonic: then let's do it, to it! ON WITH THE STORY!

"Mighty?" Shadow asked, confused to why he was muddy.
"Yeah." The Red Armadillo said "I have a good reason for being Muddy..." He glanced around behind him. "But can I come in?"
Curiosity of how Mighty escaped from his captures' grasp, and if he was really being followed.
as the thought crossed the Ultimate Life Form's mind the breeze picked up outside, rustling the trees and bushes, and the whispers of his Friends inside slightly frustrated him.
He stepped aside warning him as he let Mighty in, knowing his other Friends could wait, this one couldn't.
"It's okay." He shrugged coming in.
he didn't see anyone except Shadow, but living with a Villain taught him a thing or two about seemingly empty rooms.
"Is there a reason their hiding?" He asked
Shadow jerked the table-cloth off revealing their hiding spot. "I told them too. Just for safety, if you were someone else."
"I was wondering..." he said as they crawled out. "But I kinda figured that they knew how to play hide-and-seek correctly."
"I thought you were kidnapped?" Silver asked realizing that it was Mighty under all the dirt.
the Former Chaotix member looked over at Shadow, and taken back by this question.
noticing the slightly panicked expression on his face Shadow said "Yes. I told him, But there's good reasoning behind it too.. He's Dating another one of the victims. "
Amy, and Crevice's eyes grew large as everyone in the room all stared at the embarrassed White(/slightly pink) Hedgehog "What?" He said defensively.
"Good luck with that, mate..." Mighty said crossing his arms over his chest. Feeling that it wouldn't go far with their mission.
Crevice whistled as he caught up with what happened with Mighty and what will happen. "You kidnapper... Must be a real jerk if he won't let you say his name."
Mighty stared at the Black and Grey 'Ultimate' life form. "You know who he is?" He asked terrified by this thought.
Nodding, Crevice explained that he wouldn't tell anyone, in three different ways, just so he would get it as they made their way into the living room.
"Okay." Mighty hesitatingly said, leery of the black and grey hedgehog he'd never seen before that knew a lot about him.
"And you arrreee?"
Shadow face palmed as Crevice introduced himself that seemed the only way he knew how to.
"He isn't my brother." Shadow said glaring at Crevice who was use to it by now.
"Whatever floats your boat, Shadow." Crevice said shrugging the denial off.
Amy, Silver, and Mighty exchanged awkward smiles as Shadow got a little frustrated.
Being annoyed by the little hedgehog that kept claiming to be related to him.
Just because they looked almost identical, and kinda sounded the same, (Crevice's voice is slightly higher than Shadow's and softer.)
Doesn't mean they're related.
Shadow reasoned in his head. Silence fell over the room, but Crevice heard a faint noise.
Turning to look at the other three Mobians as they did pretty much nothing, he listened intently to the noise as it did it again.
"Paranoid?" Shadow asked somewhat glad Crevice was.
Turning back to the Ultimate Life Form. "Do you hear that?"
The three others listened but didn't hear anything, but scared Mighty that there was someone else here.
"Shh..." Silver said pointing to Silhouette's door.
Shadow rolled his eyes, and went over to the door.
0000000000
Swallowing hard Loki backed up from Doom. "You not going to kill me." Loki scoffed
"I wouldn't place my life in that false sense of assurance." Doom snapped crossing his arms over his chest ready to end the stupid creature.
"Doom, this is the Asgardian, Dr Eggman brought here. Loki, this is the Leader of Black Arms, Black Doom, And I don't think killing each other would be very 'okay' right now, but since neither of you are listening to me, I don't care what happens to either of you." Issai tried intervening for them, but got nowhere with it.
"I wouldn't either." Loki agreed with Issai on the last part he heard "so let's just leave, and we can forget this place since we're not coming back." Loki rambled on his way towards the door Until a hand stopped him as he passed by the Black leader..
0000000000
"Hey!" Silhouette exclaimed as Shadow knocked on the door in her ear.
opening the doors she saw Shadow standing there, crossing his arms over his chest, very unimpressed with what she was doing.
Frowning, Silhouette was about to explain why she was listening when Shadow signaled for her not to say anything. mainly because he didn't want to hear it, much less any other unwanted people.
as terror-struck the Red Armadillo, Silver realized what was going on and why they started acting strange.
Quickly coming up with a diversion, he said "Hey, I just remembered, I wanted to show you something before it started raining... come on!"
holding hands, the two, headed for the door when Amy curiously asked what they were going to do.
"I know of a great place where the sun rise is beautiful, and it probably won't rain there so we kinda need to go before it starts here. Bye!" Silver told them quickly as they ran out the door.
"awww..." Amy silently moaned "I wish Sonic did that with me."
Mighty stood speechless, "Where did he come from again? Cuz he know how to work around this problem." He asked very impressed, but still worried that her bug picked up his voice and now he put them in more danger.
0000000000
"umm, What are you doing?" Loki wondered approaching Dr. Eggman outside his Egg-base, in his Asgardian form.
Issai stopped short of the army of robots. Over looking them.
"How's that for blueprints?" a deep voice asked from behind him, that Issai instantly recognized as Metal Sonic.
"it'll work, I guess." He shrugged.
the army of robots all turned around and started heading out.
"Metal Sonic, go with them, but only attack if Loki fails." Dr. Eggman ordered
with a nod, the Blue Robot followed behind the Asgardian.
Issai disappeared in the base again.
Eggman ran back inside and pulled out one of his older robots that looked like a ball. As its eyes flickered on its body separated
"Ah, what a relief it is, being fully charged again." Orb-bot said, stretching his mechanical parts.
"there's a foreign man heading into the forest called Loki. Follow him, watch him, don't let him see you. Now go!" Eggman ordered
the bot shrunk down into a ball again and rolled out the door.
"hey." Rouge said jumping up on the wall, and out of the robots way. "Where are you going?" She wondered
0000000000
"Do you think her bug picked up his voice?" Amy wondered as she went to drink her coffee again, but found her cup empty.
As much as everyone would love to admit that there could be no possible way that a mic that small could hear through a door, Mighty recalled some incidents in which he had to use his mic for the main purpose of going on a mission, and standing between him and his target was a group of loud Mobians, but his captor still got what he needed from him.
"So how do you know that your mud covered mic isn't still transmitting?" Crevice asked as thunder crashed the silence of the room.
Amy giggled at the perfect timing with the suspenseful question, and the weather.
"I really have no way of being certain, but I have this..." He said pulling a wireless ear bud out from his ear. "This is how I can hear him when he gives me orders, and when I've gone too far with something, he tells me through this."
Shoving the ear bud back in his ear "and so far I hear nothing from him..." As he hear a series of beeps in his communicator ear bud.
Shadow listened intently but could only make out some of the beeping.
"Why is it in Morris code?"
The terrified Armadillo shook his head "it usually isn't, and Espio translated that, I don't know what it means."
Amy gasped covering her mouth
"It's okay." Crevice whispered to her.
"Is it?" Shadow asked his brother's motives. "From what I hear, the bug is a multi-purpose device fitted with a tracker, and whoever is behind this is hunting him now."
"Y-you mean he'll kill him?" Amy asked hoping she was wrong.
To her disappointment she was right, but Crevice continued in being persistent that everything will be fine.
"I know you didn't want to be dragged into this, I'm sorry.." Mighty said and started leaving when Shadow stopped him.
"I was already involved, even before Sil was. And if his intent is to track you down and kill you and/or whoever you told this 'privet info' to, being us, then you two hid will hid somewhere..." He said pointing to Crevice and Amy typing the site you where they will be hiding in his cell phone and showing them.
Crevice and Amy nodded as Amy turned light pink as most of the color left her while she tried not to hyperventilat.
"I'll be out for a long time if this mission ends here." Shadow continued as he pulled out the gun Crevice gave him from the armrest of his couch.
He froze as he saw an inscription on the barrel. Maria
He checked the firearms weapon over making sure nothing was wrong with it, and opened the door as rain began pouring outside.
Looking back at everyone determined to finish this.
Mighty watched the rain fall. "I'm not much help to you if it gets washed off."
Sighing, Shadow tried remembering if he had anything to help. "I think there's a plastic rain coat in the closet, and an umbrella."
Opening the closet, Mighty pulled out a black rain coat with the G.U.N logo on it, and a pink umbrella.
Slipping the coat over him, he then opened the umbrella.
Mighty laughed as he saw it was a pink and white poke-a-dot center umbrella.
"Umm..." Amy and Crevice said in unison, but Amy was about to laugh where as Crevice sighed slightly embarrassed.
Slapping his hand over his face, Shadow let out a low growl. "I take no responsibility for anything in this house that isn't mine. It was given to me by G.U.N and decorated by Rouge." He said leaving the room.
Shadow was going out when Amy asked how they were going to leave without getting drenched.
0000000000
"are you afraid of heights?" Silver asked as they stood in the middle of the rain, but under Silver's psychokinetic umbrella.
Silhouette giggled recalling several times when she'd stand next to the Byfrost and watched the water fall off the land into the under the island in the sky, Asgard.
"not that I know of, I haven't been in the past."
Silver smiled as he enclosed them in a bubble and lifted them above the clouds.
She sat Watching in wonder as he rested the bubble in a cloud.
Sitting with her they both watched as the sun rose, and turned the clouds and sky brilliant colors.
"It's beautiful." She said resting her head on his shoulder and holding hands.
not able to hide his smile from getting bigger, Silver leaned his head against hers, "it sure is."
0000000000
Rain poured on the Ultimate Life Form's head as he and Mighty ran through the forest on their way to the base where Mighty was held captive.
"Ya know..." Mighty said jumping to the ground off a tree that fell. "This rain coat has a hood if you want the umbrella."
Shadow remained quiet as he tried listing through the rain for anyone or anything. He didn't mind the rain, it was better than having a pink anything to stay dry.
Glancing behind him, Shadow saw that Mighty was still standing by the log staring into the woods in a trance.
"Hey."
He called out to Mighty
"I- I can't take you any further."
Shadow had a very good idea why, nodded, and continued in the way they were going.
When he got hit with a rock.
Freezing in his tracks, Shadow didn't move as Mighty told him he couldn't let him continue either.
"He'll kill you when you get there." He warned.
"Lots of people tried to kill me, tell him that he can shoot me till there are no bullets left in his gun, but if he points it to you, Sil, or anyone else who doesn't want to work with him, and is unprepared, then he can consider himself as dead meat." Shadow said angrily.
Mighty stood there dreading what he was given to do next.
"He heard you." He said swallowing as he listened to his communicator.
Shadow watched as Mighty got tense. "And..."
"And he's not going to kill you..." Mighty said closing the umbrella.
Thunder rolled in the distance. The silence was all Shadow needed to know That it wasn't going to end well. "He told you to do it, didn't he?"
Mighty nodded and hesitantly raised his fists.
"Before we go any further, are you sure you want to do this?" Shadow asked making sure that he wasn't about to do something that is completely unnecessary. "Cuz if I fight him. I'll win, and you'll lose your best pawn."
"Well.." Mighty relayed what his threatener said through His's ear piece. "I never have considered myself 'dead meat' but this is taking you a long time to solve, and I'm not intimidated by your threat. You might want to try a little harder."
He paused "he's laughing."
Shadow rolled his eyes.
"If you can disable him, me, then I'll, he'll send someone else. Someone of equality, and... It probably Sil." Mighty told him.
"Sil won't do anything else for him. Are you sure you can handle it?" Shadow asked tossing his gun aside.
Nodding with an assured "Yes" a gleam of hope was in the red Armadillo Mobian.
"Okay." He said as Mighty threw the first punch towards Shadow's head. To which he just stepped aside and caught his arm.
Pulling him towards himself, Shadow stepped aside and Mighty face-planted into a tree.
Watching Mighty make a quick comeback, Shadow ducked under Mighty's arm blocking his right fist with his left arm, he punched him in the chest, sending him back into the mud.
Lightning streaked across the sky as Mighty picked himself back up "just to let you know. I'm not doing this for him."
Throwing punches to the Ultimate Life Form's direction. Shadow caught his fists as Mighty finished saying "this it for the Chaotix."
"I know." Shadow said "but that won't stop me."
Jumping up, he spun around kicking him in the chest sending him in the mud again covering him completely.
Picking up his gun again he pressed it against Mighty's head before he stood up.
Writing a message in the mud, the armadillo nodded, cringing as he heard the gun shoot, but the bullet impacted the mud.
mighty fell face first in the mud as well, pretending he got shot, as Shadow told him to do in the mud.
"you're gunna have to do better than that, cuz when I find you, it'll take a miracle for me NOT to release a Chaos Blast from within your tiny finite brain, and smearing you into the pavement." Shadow said his peace
then blasted the device with Chaos Energies damaging the communicator and rendering it useless.
The blast also knocked out Mighty and he laid in the mud barley breathing.
Shadow listened to Mighty's ear piece as more Morris code beeping came through it
"Impressive. As crazy as it sounds I look forward to meeting you so I can prove how easy this will be for me."
tossing the communication device aside Shadow glanced around the area.
He's near.
Shadow thought to himself as thunder rolled in the distance.
0000000000
a mysterious, Shadowy figure moved through the forest stealthily, cautiously avoiding the Ultimate Life Form on his tail.
Hiding in a tree. Extremely next to the trunk, piping his collar up and sitting really still, he really didn't know how he didn't get spotted.
as Shadow blasted through the Forest in the direction Mighty was leading him before, a flash of lightning illuminated the sky and the silhouette of the trench coated figure jumped from the branch landing on the ground.
watching intently as Shadow left, going toward his base, he turned facing the direction Shadow's house is and took off running.
0000000000
"Sooo..." Silver wondered as he and Silhouette wandered through the rocky terrain near the sea. Silhouette was slightly ahead of him, and he had no idea where they were going. "What is it you wanted to show me?"
Silver stopped when Silhouette stood on top of a boulder, and helped him up. "It's up there." She said pointing to the top of the cliff.
"Ooh huh." He stuttered. Even though climbing would be an interesting experience he preferred flying, and thinking it would be a new fun memory for them he held her hand and lifted them with his mind element.
A wide smile spread over her face as she held on to him as they ascended up the cliff, and landing on the top.
There stood a sleek white building with Eggman's logo on it. "Umm. This place?" Silver asked pointing at the building, confused, as Silhouette pulled him along towards the shiny building. "I'm not so sure we'll be allowed... in." Silver said nervously as Silhouette phased them through the front door.
Silver froze releasing Silhouette's hand "whoa." He commented surprised they got in so easily.
"Eggman built this base for when his other one gets destroyed." Silhouette explained as she guided the nervous hedgehog.
"I remember him talking and designing it, last time I was here. I know it's not as nice as the sunset you showed me, but just incase you can't find me because of Eggman, you might want to check here."
"But he has so many of them." Silver commented following close behind Silhouette as she walked in a room with a glass wall over looking the panoramic view of the planet. "That's a nice view." He said.
Silhouette placed her hands against the glass. "It's pretty. Look there's Tails' workshop." She said pointing to a wooden house in the trees several miles away.
Looking at the buildings beyond the trees in the clearing of land. "It looks so small from here." He stated. hearing another deep voice behind them say
"you look small too from a distance."
Silver spun around to meet a gloved fist in his face that hit with extreme force sending him to the other side of the room, and into the shelves that collapsed on top of him.
all he heard in that split second he couldn't see anything, was Silhouette's squeal before he caught everything in his mind element and burst out of the pile of wreckage.
Keeping some of the boxes of technical equipment in his Psychokinesis peering through the dark sheet of hazy darkness that swirled on the walls and covered the windows.
He saw nothing, except for Silhouette lying on the floor unconscious.
"SIL!" He exclaimed hoping she would've heard it and woke up. Sadly it didn't happen.
Rage built up inside him. "SHOW YOURSELF!"
"it's almost funny. You... And her... Together..." Doom casually said, strolling in from a shadow on the wall.
making his way over to the White Hedgehog, he said. "Reminds me of another couple, you might've heard of them, Romeo and Juliet?"
"We're still alive." Silver snapped narrowing his eyes, obviously ready to kick butt.
Doom scoffed "I'm expecting that to change very soon." And with that he blurred behind Silver as he released a series of Mind blasts.
catching the Black and Yellow Hedgehog in a mental grip, Silver slammed Doom into the ground.
Spearing the ground with his mind element, barely missing The Black Leader.
Summoning Chaos Energies in his hand, Black Doom found it nearly impossible to release it while being held with Silver's Mind Element.
"It's no use. I won't let you do any farther harm here!"
A smirk spread over Dooms lips as he vanished in a sweep of red light.
and everything went bright for them.
000000000
thunder crashed in the distance as lighting streaked across the sky.
Shadow found an abandoned house/base. It appeared safe from the outside.
opening the door, He tossed a stick inside incase it's appearance from the outside was deceiving, it wasn't.
walking in now, He saw nothing at first, because it was dark.
as he flipped on the lights, he was actually surprised they worked, but no that big.
all he saw was a normal house. Checking the back rooms, they were the same.
"Someone's defiantly been here." Shadow said going back in the main finding a knife on the table, with a little green stain on the handle next to the blade.
Raising an eyebrow, curiosity struck him for some odd reason. Shadow picked up the knife.
feeling that this kidnapper/murder didn't like leaving much of a trail for him to follow... "Maybe, I wonder if Tails could tell me what it is. this could give me something to work with."
finding a cover for the blade. Shadow blurred back through the forest...
0000000000
"HEY! THAT'S NOT FAIR!" Silver shouted as he went head first into the floor of a metal room.
"what make you think I care if I play fair with you?" Doom chuckled waving his hand manipulating the darkness around forming spears out of the black ooze directly under where Silver was before he rolled out-of-the-way.
Jumping back up, He caught himself in his psychokinesis, floating there He summoned a mind spear and shoved it in the dark leaders direction.
pulling up his hands a wave of black ooze blocked the spear from reaching him, or at least that's what he lead him to believe.
catching the darkness in his mind element, Silver fought against the strong darkness.
Pulling his self together, grunting with effort as he gave it everything he had as he landed on the ground next to the passed out Silhouette, pushing it forward with all his might!
the room lightened greatly and Doom laid on the floor a few feet away.
"Nice, not bad, ...for an amateur!" Doom Mocked slamming his fist down.
darkness swerved, and swirled around them in the form of black sand.
Silver kept him and Silhouette in a protective bubble.
A massive cloud of darkness swirled above them and all around.
"Let's see just how good you really are with that power of yours" Doom mocked knowing that there is no conceivable way that him being that weak could withstand this attack.
Silver held the bubble as the darkness began pounding him. "AAAAAAAHHHHHH!" He shouted as it collapsed down...
"HEART!"
Silhouette yelled as she woke up to the devastating scene. Grabbing Silver and shouting, the element in her strengthened the white hedgehog, giving him leverage to burst out from their collapsed cave in of darkness.
as the dark sandy stuff settles Silver notices that they weren't in the room anymore, or with Doom, they were... in the wet forest.
