Chapter Thirteen: Doomed
Shadow gasped in surprise. Then it started to rain, along with thunder and lightning.
"What did you just say, Sonic?!" Shadow asked in shock.
"Shadow, you've got to kill me! I can't fight this!" Sonic stated in his normal voice.
But Sonic's aura keeps forming around him.
"Ha! Don't be fooled, Shadow! You can't kill us! We are invincible!" Sonic says in his dark voice.
"Sonic, no! There has to be another way!" Amy shrieked, as sad tears fell from her eyes.
She tried to rush towards Sonic, but the three girls held her back, preventing her to do so.
"Amy, it's too dangerous!" Cream shrieked.
"She's right, Amy! Too risky!" Tikal added.
"Don't be a hero, Amy! There's nothing more we can do! I knew this was a stupid idea to attend here!" Rouge shrieked.
"Sonic, I can't kill you!" Shadow exclaimed in fear.
Sonic shook his head again.
"Shadow, please! You have to! Otherwise, I'll kill someone else, or even you guys!" Sonic pleaded.
"Sonic, we are not going to kill you!" Knuckles snarled.
"Not a chance, Sonic! We can't! Please, there has to be another way!" Tails sobbed.
"Are you people idiots, or something?! Super Dark Sonic is invincible, wake up, and smell the coffee! It doesn't matter if he remembers you or not, or even if you could kill him, the darkness will always overcome him, and you can't kill him!" Scourge laughs evilly.
"What would you know?!" Knuckles snarled.
"Yeah, shut the fuck up, Scourge, you prick!" Tails yelled.
"He's right though! You can't kill me, or force him to fight me! Because I'll take over his mind, and you can't kill him, because he's immortal!" Sonic stated with an evil smile.
Sonic then shakes his head, and a sad tear fell from his eyes.
"See? I can't control this, Shadow! I'm trying so hard to fight it, but he keeps taking over my mind again! That's why you have to kill me! I know it's tough for you to swallow your pride, but this is the right thing to do! So please, for fuck's sake, Shadow! JUST FUCKING KILL ME!" Sonic yelled.
Sonic dashed towards Shadow's motorcycle, and grabbed the Shadow-Rifle hanging on the handle. And then he aimed the rifle towards his head.
.
(Sonic singing)
Put this gun into my head!
.
"SONIC, NO!" Shadow yelled.
After that, he then ran towards Sonic, and grabbed the rifle away from him. Everyone screamed in fear, but sighed in relief. Sonic has sad tears falling from his eyes.
.
(Sonic singing)
The candle burns itself tonight
Keep the cold away tonight
Keep them safe tonight
Once all is said and done
I'll turn around, and hang my head
.
Sonic placed both of his hands on his head, and groaned in pain from his head throbbing. He for some reason was thinking about Amy in his mind.
"Amy!" Sonic yelled.
Amy has a shocked expression on her face.
"He remembers me!" Amy exclaimed, as sad tears fell from her eyes.
.
(Sonic singing)
I've made this promise for eternity
But now it's burning me
.
Black aura formed around Sonic's body.
.
(Dark Sonic singing)
Promise is broken
World is ripped opened
Burned it alive
.
Sonic shakes his head, and the aura dies down. He looks on towards Shadow, with tears falling from his eyes.
.
(Sonic singing)
Now put that gun to my head
I will not turn and run
The wounds tear me open
Should've just shot me instead
But now, I'm done
My promise is broken
.
Sonic falls to all fours, and looks at his reflection in the pool. Tears filling his eyes.
"You sure you want to die, Sonic?! Look at yourself, you know you love this power as much as I do!" The Darkness told him.
"LEAVE ME ALONE! GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HEAD!" Sonic yells, as black auras formed around him again, tears filling his eyes.
.
(Sonic singing)
I'll burn within the flames tonight
I'll dance in the dark tonight
All by myself inside my head
.
"Come on, Sonic!" Knuckles pleaded.
"You can do this, Sonic!" Tails added.
"Remember who you are, Sonic!" Shadow called.
You got this, Baby-Blue!" Rouge called.
"Don't give up, Sonic!" Cream added.
"Remember your destiny!" Tikal added.
"Remember how much I love you, Sonic!" Amy finished.
"Huh! Don't be fooled by them, Sonic! They're trying to turn you into weaklings like them!" Scourge snarled. Sonic sheds tears from his eyes.
.
(Sonic singing)
We've made this promise for eternity
But now it's burning me
.
Dark black aura forms all over his body once again.
.
(Dark Sonic singing)
Promise is broken
World is ripped opened
Burned it alive
.
Sonic once again shakes his head, and the black aura fades away.
"I can't take this any longer!" Sonic yells.
He then made his way towards Shadow. He lifted Shadow's gun, and placed the tip of the gun on his forehead, eyes still filling with sad tears.
.
(Sonic singing)
Now put that gun to my head
I will not turn and run
The wounds tear me open
Should've just shot me instead
But now, I'm done
My promise is broken
.
Now put me down
With this bullet in through my head!
.
"Shadow, you have to do this!" Sonic pleaded.
Shadow shook his head, and he sheds sad tears from his eyes.
"No, I can't!" Shadow whimpered.
"You'll be safe now, Shadow. With me, all you have to do is wait until his super form fades, then you can stop him. Please, Shadow, it's the only way." Sonic explains. With that statement, everyone besides Scourge started crying.
"No!" Knuckles exclaimed.
"You can't!" Tails whimpered.
"Baby-Blue!" Rouge said.
"I can't watch!" Cream buried her head on Tikal's chest.
"I'll tell you when it's over." Tikal sobbed.
"No, Shadow! Don't do it!" Amy pleaded.
Shadow, with eyes filled with tears slowly placed a finger on the trigger, and began to slowly pull on it.
"I'm sorry, Sonic. Please, forgive me." Shadow sobbed.
Scourge however looked on, and laughs evilly.
"They're a lot more stupid than I thought!" Scourge stated.
.
(Sonic singing)
You put that gun to my head
I will not turn and run
My promise is broken
.
Suddenly, Sonic grabbed the gun, and smashed it. He then punched Shadow in the face, and Shadow falls to the floor. Everyone gasped in shock. Sonic chuckles evilly.
.
(Dark Sonic singing)
I'll put that gun to your head
You should turn and run
The wounds tear you open
Should've just shot me instead
But now, you're done
Your promise is broken
.
Put this bullet through your head
I'll overcome
.
"You really fell for that, faker?! So fucking gullible! I knew you would go soft! I'm Super Dark Sonic! That wasn't even your Sonic Speaking to you, that was all me playing possum!" He chuckles, as he threw multiple punches and kicks to Shadow.
"SHADOW!" Rouge shrieked.
Sonic then grabs Shadow around the neck with both hands, and startled strangling him.
"Now, time to die!" Sonic snarled, as he tightened his hands around Shadow's neck.
Shadow grunted in pain.
"Yes, Sonic! Kill the Ultimate Lifeform!" Scourge encouraged.
"That's it, I can't take this any more!" Amy cried.
Amy's eyes were filling with tears, and she ran towards Sonic and Shadow, the girls gasped in terror, and the guys saw Amy running towards them.
"AMY, NO!" everyone yelled.
