Mansion 2: chapter 19
James' POV
I sighed and laid my hands on my eyes and closed my eyelids. I felt the irritating stinging in my eyes when staring at a computer screen for to long. I wouldn't normally use the computer since the only ones using it were either Lea or Andreas, but i had no other choice now. I had no leads as to where Shadow was being held and where Sonic was going to currently. So i had decided to use this thing called the internet. And, to be honest, it was a big dissapointment. I had no idea for what and where i had to search for any information. And the more i searched, the less i found. There were moments when i thought that i fianlly had a lead, but they seemed to be leading me to dead ends afterwards.
I felt like giving up for the night as it was getting very late and i, once again, found nothing that could be of any use to me. I wondered if i would ever find something that could be off any use to me.
I scrolled down another page of the search results and decided to call it a night and join my lovely wife in bed. After all, i didn't feel like searching for more and i had promised her that i would go to sleep on time. I went with the cursor on the small cross of the internet window. I was about to click on the left button, untill something caught my eye. I clicked on it to find a news paper article. I quickly started reading it. What i read shocked me.
Sonic's POV
"i can't attack it." Shadow said all of a sudden when we heard the creature coming closer. "huh?" I said in confusion of not Shadow not being able to attack it despite having such a big blades stuck in his arms. At first i guessed that the blades hurt him to much, but Shadow brought another good point up in the conversation. "if we attack it we might allarm it's master. if we don't attack it, the master will not find out that we escaped from the prison cell block." He said. "good point." I replied.
"so what do we do?" I asked. "we hide, of course!" Shadow said and looked around. The moaning was nearing. And it was nearing fast. Shadow walked further and looked around. "Sonic!" He yelled and i quickly made my way over to him. I was glad that the thing that was nearby hadn't heard him. "there is a closet here. hide in it and wait for that thing to be gone." He said and opened the closet door with difficulty. "what about you?" I asked and stepped in the closet. Shadow didn't answer. he just closed the door with his right 'arm'. "shadow!" I whispered loudly as i heard him walk away. "come back!" I whispered, but i didn't hear his steps on the hard ground anymore. 'where is he going?' I asked myself mentally. I was about to go out and check, but that sound of that monster had stopped me. It was close. It's footsteps were walking in this direction, preventing me from getting out and search for my fiancee. I could go out, but that would mean certain death. And i don't think anyone would appreciate that. Certainly not Shadow. So i stayed in the closet and hoped that he would be okay, but my hopes turned into doubts as i heard the monster let out an allerted growl.
