The ragged breath in his ear was the painful reminder of why Sonic even forgave Shadow for this kind of behavior in the first place. He was suffering, clearly suffering, and the blue hedgehog was a loss as to what to do. He wanted to help him so badly; he may’ve not returned his feelings, but he was still a friend…or was he anymore? He didn’t know, honestly. They were playing a sick game with each other, and he didn’t know how much longer he would be able to take playing it.

He let out a sharp cry when he felt the bite and gritted his teeth when the black and red hedgehog clawed his back mercilessly — but there was something to it that made Sonic swallow hard and realize this wasn’t just some random act, some random desire for maliciousness. Unlike the times before. He was crying, he was crying, he was suffering.

He’d panicked while Sonic was away.

And it was this knowledge that made the blue hedgehog draw his own arms back around him and try to hold him, ignoring the pain and the prickling sensation at his own eyes. I’m back, I’m back, he whispered. I’m sorry for leaving. I’m back. Despite how much he wavered internally, those were the most stabilized sentences he’d said in a long time.

Back, back, back you’re back you’re back of course you’re back you’re here and your scent your voice Sonic sonic sonic sonic christ I missed you I need you I sonic sonic…

He gasped again, biting his lip to try and stifle his tears. I can’t I can’t control I cannot control my head is spinning he’s here he’s here and he

won’t

get away again.

He suddenly brought Sonic away from him to look directly at him, breathing heavily and digging deeply into his shoulders. “You won’t run a-away again, y-you understand? Not…no. Nngh.” He grit his teeth as he stared at him. “I want to…see you. I want to see you. I need to, I need to…have you. Yes. Have you. You’re, you’re mine…”

Shadow’s voice was shaking as well, and he suddenly became rigid, overwhelmed with the temptation of ripping his claws all through the blue hedgehog’s flesh, making him writhe, making him scream, scream for mercy—

—but that would mean I am hurting him…

Making him miserable…

His eyes shook and began to water openly, and he yanked him close once again, showering his head with uneven kisses. His hands still clawed down his back, shaking. “I-I’m…S-ssonic, Sonic I l-love…I n-need…nngh…y-you’re mine…!”

Oh, no.

In…in a sense.

Sonic gave Shadow a weak smile.

Please don’t hurt me again…

He swallowed thick, then took a step forward, eyes darting all over his body. Slowly, he put his hands on his shoulders, muttering “Sonic” under his breath and bringing his face closer to his ear. As he was close enough, he gave it a bite, then without warning, he clawed his shoulders, gasping and shuddering. His eyes squeezed shut.

“S-s-s-sssonic…”

OB!Shadow

silverthehedgie:

-Was this the Shadow that Silver was warned about? Either way, he certainly gave Silver and eerier feel. Almost making him nervous enough to begin trembling.-

Well, I’m sorry for being sorry then. H-haha.

You’re needed elsewhere? Right now? I don’t mean to keep you if I am?

-Oh, Silver was getting slightly confused, this was probably his worries over powering him.-

 You’re certainly protective of Sonic.

-Dear lord, Silver, don’t go into the subject that you wanted to kill him at one point.-

(sorry for sorry for sorry red would look nice on that fur I bet he would scream and scream)

Nngh…

He shook his head, trying to rid the thought from his mind. “No, I have not been called in today. I work for GUN, as their top agent. I do some of their…dirtier work, hrm.” His lip curled just slightly. “I have time to socialize, for the time being.”

“Although, I am looking for my Sonic. Have you seen him?” His eyes began to dart, searching for a coat of blue. “I am protective of him. He is mine, after all. My Sonic.” His gaze grew hazy. “He is precious to me, very precious, my Sonic. I prefer to keep him in my sights at all times, yes, all times. I haven’t seen him today, however, and it puts me on edge, nngh.” He blinked rapidly, then narrows his eyes on him. “Have you seen him? Tell me, have you?”

silverthehedgie:

-Well, at least he had met someone who recognized him today. Still, this was just as embarrassing.-

I’m sorry. I’m Silver the Hedgehog, I’m a time traveller so I’ve come across other Shadow’s before. So… I kinda of jumped the gun then, haha. Sorry again.

He tilted his head. “Time travel?” he inquired, and then an ear twitched. “Stop apologizing.” You are making it too easy, to easy to imagine the sensation of your quills clenched in my fists. He sighed through his teeth. “Understandable, understandable. I have never gone into the topic myself. I am needed elsewhere, yes. Elsewhere.”

Sonic. That is who he reminds me of, Sonic. Sonic sonic sonic.

“If you have met other Shadows, then you certainly must have met other Sonics,” he said, almost a little eagerly. “I as well have met a few other Sonics, but none can compare to my own. No, none. None.” His eyes widen briefly, before he focuses back on Silver.

Hey Shadow! It’s nice to see you too!

“Hrm, greetings. I am afraid we have not met.” He looked him over, eyes scanning over his fur, his eyes, his quills. Something about him is familiar, but it is hard to place. The way he holds himself. “You seem to know me well enough, but it would be kind of you to introduce yourself.” Shadow himself stood stiff, arms folded across his chest.

WHERE IS HE.

I will find him. I will find him. Anything to calm this…

…panic.

It’s bright…

Am I asleep? Am I awake? Am I alive?

…am I dead?

I open my eyes.

There is white, white all around me. It nearly blinds me. I do not know where I am, or how I got here. I am afraid I’m afraid where where

(“Shadow.”)

I hear a voice, a voice so sweet, like a bell a bell a bell a female voice. And when I hear that voice, when I recognize it, my chest feels like it will burst. There is too much light, too much pain(?) too much and then

I see her.

I can see her and yet I cannot focus on her. She is unattainable, unreachable, as she has always been. I know for a fact now, in this crystalline plane, that she was the only source of reason on that damned place, on the ARK. Did I want to protect her? Or had I been so warped that I wanted to destroy her, for all the purity that she possessed? Did she see that I was not what they had made me to be?

I can feel her presence around me and I think she speaks

(“It’s all right, Shadow.”)

to me, I can still hear her voice amongst the roaring sensation in my chest and all around my face, all around me, this blankness, this whiteness, her soft hands

(“You’re safe here. You can’t hurt anyone here.”)

and her gentle smile, I can hear her voice and it sounds like a choir, I can see her eyes and they’re

they’re

green?

I blink and her image starts to fade. No no no I can’t lose you again no I can’t hurt you here please stay please stay

Maria don’t

don’t leave me

She fades into a darker blue and the green eyes grow emerald and I see what has happened for Maria is no longer here but

he is

Sonic

and this time I can’t contain myself, I lunge for him and the pain grows deeper, but he doesn’t run away. He does not look afraid here, and he takes me in his arms and strokes my back.

(“Shadow.”)

His voice his voice how could I have forgotten it? It sounds like angels and yet it feels like I’m at the end of the world the end of everything with him here. I am crying and screaming but it is hard to tell, it’s hard to feel the dampness on my face and the vibrations in my chest. And even as I look at him, I cannot focus, but he is ever changing

one second he is happy, unmarked, as I met him

the next his eyes are heavy and I can see the swirls on his shoulders and I can feel the rips in his gloves

and back

and forth

and back

and forth

he does not let me go but it is now that I realize in this haze of white and clarity that I

I have broken him

My heart sinks and I don’t think I could ever express to him how much I love him, how much I just wanted him to be mine and that no, I cannot control myself I can’t it hurts how much I crave for the pain of others and how I was built this way, I was created this way, and that this safe haven can only last so long

only so long

and I am sorry I am so sorry

I think he hears me because

(“I know.”)

he doesn’t let go of me and he just holds me as his body shifts and I continue to cry, and the noise and pain assaults my ears and my mind

(“I think I’m sorry too.”)

is chaos, everything is chaos and I am made of Chaos and pain and anguish and insanity and I can only hang on to this moment where I know that even though it is too late, that here I can be safe, here I can’t hurt him, my Sonic my precious Sonic sonic sonic Sonic Sonic sonic sonic I

I am so…

sorry

I’m sorry…

for everything…

Shadow’s eyes opened as the images of his dream faded. He sat straight up, holding his head, now truly able to feel the dampness on his face. And with each passing moment, everything faded, and he was left with nothing but the image of white, and the sound of a single piano arpeggio in his mind’s ear, amongst the silence.

He broke it with a dry sob.

“Ghk…”

It has been quiet, things have been quiet. He has been obedient, yes he has. He has. My precious Sonic. It was his birthday yesterday, I let him do what he wanted. For a short amount of time. I kept watch though, yes. I have to keep watch, I can’t let him get away. If he runs off I don’t

I don’t want to

no

no no no no no NO NO NO NO

“Nngh…”

No.

He will not run away. Steady

steady

He came back at night, I kept him here at night, Chaos bless the day he was born, my precious delicate life form. I washed him so his blue fur would shine, shine just for me. Then I kept him here, I made sure he would stay, stay. He will stay here for me, because he’s mine, my Sonic sonic sonic Sonic my Sonic. I love him I love him I will do anything to keep him here he is mINE no one else’s mine mine MINE he will only have happiness from me only feel pain from me no one else mine mine mine Sonic sonic sonic Sonic Sonic sonic sonic

Beep beep.

ah

“Agent Shadow?”

“Yes.”

“Your assistance is required.”

He grit his teeth. I suppose it is time to engage in an activity I do best. Pity I will have to leave him here. I will make sure he stays I will make sure he will stay because he is mine mine mine Sonic sonic sonic sonic sonic sonic SONIC sonic Sonic

“Shadow?”

“Hrm, yes. I will be there shortly.”

He backs away from the hedgehog a bit, deeply disturbed by his attitude. “I, um… yes.” He clears his throat. “Yes, I suppose whatever makes you happy must be a good thing but—” In realizing the sort of intimidation that the hedgehog is radiating, he stops himself, listens to the rest of his words, then lets out a breathy sigh.

“I… understand. Listen, Shadow, you’re… how do I say this nicely,” he groans. “You’re scaring me, mate.”

You’re scaring me.

Somehow, this remark brings a strange glow to his eyes, and a shot of adrenaline courses through his veins, mixing with his Black Arms blood. It made him see red. “Scaring you? Hm,” he muttered, taking a step forward, not taking his eyes off the skunk. “I wonder if you know what fear is. I wonder if you know what pain is.

“I know what both of those things are.”

He tugs his glove off to reveal sharp claws, and he flexes that hand, staring at it with a tilted head. “I have seen it before. I have seen it in the eyes of many. I have heard the shrieks and the crying, I have heard the begging.” Shadow’s deep eyes glow with that maniac light, and his lip begins to twitch. “I know what it is like to be pushed right to one’s limit, so that one will do anything for it to stop. I have seen individuals broken down completely. They will do what you ask, at that point.”

He stares at his clawed hand for a moment, then flicks his eyes back to Geoffry, slowly lowering his arm. He does not put his glove back on. “Are you scared now?” he said, his lip curling upward.
