Wow. I have not updated this story in a long time. Okay, so here's a new chapter.

I don't own Sonic the Hedgehog.

Read, review, and enjoy!

Strolling through the city's park the next night, almost blending in with the darkness completely, Shadow was surprised. Although he was not complaining, the park was unusually dead. Normally, he could find someone, mostly joggers, he could quickly feed on, but there was no sign of anyone being in the area. He just came from another pointless meeting with Sonic; this time, continuing their discussion about how he thought humans were pathetic when it came to monsters while Sonic stood up for them. Hearing a slight noise, Shadow stopped in place and kept his mouth shut as he let his fangs extend, ready to attack who or what caused the noise. Seeing a silver hedgehog come rushing towards him, Shadow's muscles relaxed and his fangs retracted as he started, "Silver? What are you-"

"Shadow. I don't have much time to talk. I know what you are and I came back to warn you." Silver cut off as he stopped in front of Shadow and the onyx hedgehog raised an eyebrow as he crossed his arms.

"Warn me? About what?"

"It's Sonic. I know what he is too."

"What about him?"

"You know how you keep saying if anyone's going to kill him, it's going to be you?"

"Of course. So?"

"Well, it's not going to happen."

"Why not?"

"Because he's going to kill you first. On the next full moon, which is two nights from now, he's going to turn and he's going to bite you and then stake you."

"How does that concern you?"

"That part's not important. Look, you have to kill Sonic before he kills you."

"If you know so much about what's going to happen...why don't you do it?"

"Because I'm not fast enough. He could take me down before I even move to attack. You're just as fast and strong as he is...maybe even faster and stronger than him. You're the only one who can do it," Explained Silver, "trust me Shadow. You have to do it. You have to kill Sonic now or he's going to kill you first."

Thinking about the grey hedgehog's words, Shadow stated, "If what you say is true...I'll have to decide where my loyalties lie."

Watching Shadow as he raced away, Silver gave an evil smile before he casually strolled away.

Jogging down the street, Sonic enjoyed the silence of the street. It proved to be a perfect night for a good run a couple of nights before he left for the full moon. He just finished an argument about humans with Shadow while he advocated for the humans and their fears of monsters while Shadow argued how trivial the fear was when it came to the bigger picture. Suddenly, Sonic skidded to a stop as he heard a noise and got ready to attack. Normally, he was not an attack first, ask questions later kind of guy, but when it was as silent and still as it was right now...it was better to be safe than sorry. Relaxing as he saw a silver hedgehog race towards him and questioned with confusion, "Silver? What's going on? Why are you-"

"Look. I don't have much time. I know what you and Shadow are and I came back to warn you." Silver interrupted and Sonic gave a slightly surprised look as he crossed his arms.

"What?"

"Look, between right now and the end of the full moon two nights from now, Shadow said he'd be the one who's going to kill you and he's going to do it now."

"What? Why? And what does it matter to you?"

"None of those things matter. What does matter is that you have to kill him before he kills you."

"Why me? Why don't you do it yourself?"

"Because I'm not fast or strong enough. He'll kill me before I get the chance to even try to get him...and you know he will. You're the only one who can get close enough in to kill him," Explained Silver, "trust me Sonic. You have to kill Shadow before he does kill you."

Considering what the psychokinetic hedgehog said, Sonic declared, "Well, if what you're saying about Shadow is true...I'll have to think about it."

Watching Sonic as the azure hedgehog hurried away, Silver gave a malevolent grin before casually strutting away.

Finally reaching his home after what seemed like hours and just as the sun was about rise, Shadow grabbed a blood pack from the refrigerator, tore the top off as he sat on the couch, and began to slowly drink the blood as he fell into a deep thought. He was being bothered by Silver's statement of Sonic intending to kill him. He only partially believed what Silver said about Sonic was planning to do. Sonic had openly admitted to him that he would not be able to kill someone. However, when he saw Sonic's aggression while he was fighting Katherine…he changed his view. He now believed that under the right circumstances…Sonic was more than capable of killing someone. Glancing at the dartboard to see the silver knife in the bull's eye point, Shadow quickly thought of the best strategy to confirm Silver's story. Getting up, Shadow grabbed the knife and examined it. He would be able to find out if Silver was indeed telling the truth about Sonic when he went to meet his Blood Rival tonight.

Okay, so there's the chapter.

Hope you liked it and leave a review!
