Not alone anymore: chapter 2

Shadow's POV

"no, please don't leave me!" I said and tried to bring him back to me through CPR. he was starting to turn cold. This couldn't be it. Not yet. He couldn't go yet. he couldn't leave me behind. He promised not to.

Much to my relief i heard the ambulance sirenes coming near. I heard someone knocking frantically on the door. I got up and ran downstairs quickly and opened the door. they looked paniced. Who wouldn't panic if you knew that the famous sonic the hedgehog was about to die? I led them upstairs to our bedroom. I walked out of the room and leant against the wall. I left sonic in their care for now. They took sonic out of the house on a stretcher. I followed them into the ambulance and they drove us to the hospital.

I was sitting in the waitingroom. Waiting for any news on sonic's status from the doctor. They were trying their best. I know they are. And i know that they would help him through all this. I know it. Cause sonic wouldn't leave me alone like this. He promised not to.

A few hours passed before the door opened. I was very scared. because i couldn't feel sonic's chaos energy anymore. I stood up and looked at him. "a-and?" I asked and felt my legs shake. he sighed and shook his head. My eyes widened in disbelieve. No, it couldn't be! He couldn't have left me! "n-no...no! this has to be a lie!" I yelled and ran out of the hospital. I needed some time alone.

I was running through the city. I wasn't running on my fastest. I may not have become older, but mentally i had become very tired and i couldn't keep up with my speed anymore. So i had no other choice then to walk on average speed. I was running through the city. I didn't want to stop because i wanted to keep running. As if i could run away from this. I wish i could.

I don't know for how long i had been running. But at some point i tripped over something and fell to the ground face first. "oh my goodness are you okay?" I heard a soft female voice say. She walked towards me, but i didn't pay any attention to her. "s-sonic...my...my sonikku isn't going to come back anymore." I whispered and leant on my hands and knees. I felt tears gather in my eyes and felt them fall down to the ground instantly because i was looking down. "h-hey, what's wrong?" She asked and held a hand on my shoulder. Some poeple were looking at me. But i didn't care. I sat down on my knees and started to cry out loud. "he...he's gone...he's gone!" i cried out loud. the woman, who was also on her knees next to me, was trying to comfort me. She tried calling me by my first name, but i didn't respond. I didn't bother to respond. because at the moment i didn't care anymore. All i cared about was the fact that i was completely alone now.

I didn' tknow how much time was passing when i had been crying my heart out in front of all these strangers. "s-sonic...sonic!" I cried out his name several times in despair. Hoping that this would all be a dream. A dream sonic himself would wake me up from and tell me that it was all over now. Tell me that everything would be okay.

I started feeling lightheaded. I was about faint. I started to become dizzy. Those strangers around me were noticing that i was losing conciousness. I didn't have anymore tears to cry. All i could do was sob. I was crying without tears now. I felt someone softly push me down to the ground. I felt something soft, like a jacket, beneath my head. I was choking a bit on my sobs. My eye lids were very heavy. I was about to close them when i felt a warm familiar presence around me. "don't worry. you won't be alone. i promise." I heard someones voice say as if it was in my head. But the voice comforted me a little. I was very gratefull to hear that voice before i closed my eyes.
