Playing time after Shadow the Hedgehog: After Shadow successfully defeated Black Doom, he is caught between chairs: go along with the rest of the Black Arms and try to be a good new king for them or stay and live out his newfound feelings for Sonic? Is the duty over the newly gained feelings prevail? Sonic can only hope ... Sonadow, don´t like it, don´t read it X3

Heya, folks! So first: This is Sonadow, so ... yeah X3 It plays after Shadow the Hedgehog, and quite honestly, I've always liked the Black Arms, the thought that they might all do AGAINST their will more than once there! So I thought, "Maybe they would have been with a other king quite different and I thought how it could be if Shadow would be king ... and if he would prefer that maybe, and I see ... I'll get it too far XD but yes, that's the basic idea, then a little Sonadow in it and we already have a pseudo drama ... I've always written easy things, this is my first drama .. so yeah, tell me if it maybe sounds ridiculous XD

„You-You can´t be serious…?” My voice resounded through the whole park, which was unusual empty for the time, unbelieving. Shadow, who was not long ago staring in my eyes, now dropped his gaze to the floor. He let out a sign and looked over to the black-red coloured spaceship that was a bit away from us. I liked that fact, because a few members of the Black Arms keep standing there, not looking to kind, and were waiting for their new leader to say goodbye and come with them, to rule a new kingdom, where everybody of them would be better threaten, more rights when Black Doom could ever offer them…
“I- I owe them, Sonic! I murdered their King and as his…rightful successor I am committed to replace him…!” His gaze was apologetic but still serious, as if he wants to make me understand that there is no way around it…
“But what´s with u-- with your friends? Rouge? Omega?” I forced myself to cut the first sentence fast, I don´t want him to get wrong ideas if I would use the word “us”…
I was… well…I was aware for a while now that I felt so much more for him than just a friend or even a rival. But I lost the hope long ago and now, when he was planning to go, I don´t even want to hope again. I could feel how my ears flatten themselves, when I could hear Rouge like for a demonstration whimper behind us. I turned back to them. My gaze was glued to the other standing there: Amy, Tails, Knuckles, Omega, Rouge and even Eggman bowed his head in Sadness. All of them were coming here, like me, after Shadow defeated Black Doom, with joy and astonishment, could not wait to congratulate him…
Soon Shadow really breaked through the clouds, in his superform, but when he told us about the Destruction of Black Doom something…was very fishy… and suddenly he gives the Chaos Emeralds to me and turned to the abandoned Black Arms: “I´ll go with them…”
He explained to us that the Black Comet was not the only home site of the Alien race, that it was just one main comets who was encircled by many much smaller comets and that they want to take him with them…miles and miles away through the universe.
The first few minutes I was shocked but then I somehow managed… to get used to the thought?  That sounded weird… after all, how you prepare yourself to lose a dear friend forever? My mind traveled back in time to the incident on the ARK, it was surely not easy to get over the pain when I was unable to save his life… and when I met him again almost 2 months later in Frog Forest. I couldn’t explain it to myself that he survived but anyway… I was…happy! Tried to hide it behind the fight I started in the first second, already knowing back when that IT would never work…but happy to know he was alright. And also now the thoughts come back: If he would go with the Black Arms…would he be alright? Would they treat him well? Perhaps, he was their prince after all…
His dark voice, that I always find pretty …attractive, got me back out of my fantasies that turned from “pretty good” this morning, to “I couldn’t be more worse” right now.
“They´re pretty fine by themselves, look…” He pointed to something behind me and when I turned around and my gaze laid itself on an pretty…relaxed Omega, who was having a …conversation with Eggman?! And Rouge, she had cuddled herself in the arms of Knuckles… Why the others always had such luck! Well, technical I was the one with luck, after all I survived 1000 things that should kill me for sure… but it looked like my luck doesn´t involved Shadow at all…
But it seemed he wasn´t done with his last sentence, as he was taking a deep breath: “I´m more worried about someone else…” His voice was a little sad, but when I looked in his face…there was a smile, I couldn´t remember when I have seen him the last time smiling…But if he was really going, I could understand he want to do it right, like me! I doesn´t want to make it more worse when it already was, so I swallowed the pain away and tried to force a little smile on my face, not something like these cocky grins that would be totally wrong now.
Even if I tried to sound a little confident right now and even a bit cocky, that I would always be alright…with or without him on my site.
“Hah, worried about Sonic the Hedgehog? Heh, don´t make me laugh, there will never be a reason for that!” I tried myself on a chuckle but when I noticed it would fail I got serious again. “If you go with them… when will you come back?” I hoped… but my prayers were crushed brutally on the ground, when he looked on my apologizing. And then I could swear a heartless bastard danced on the broken pieces to kick the last bit of it in the dust. He gave me an honest answer, TO honest for my taste…
“Probably never… these people always lived, from the beginning of time in an absolutist dynasty. They don´t know anything apart from receive commands from someone and full fit them…Even If I could hammer a little democracy and self-determination in them, it would take years…It is better I go with them as the new king and rule the kingdom, as my father never could, fair and trustful, he was never, you know ... And thanks to my immortality that's not a problem either… "
His immortality ... another painful fact of reminding me why I primarily a relationship with Shadow renounced ... We were just too different...While I would age, he would stay young and one day I would be old and frail and die ... Maybe ... now that I think back about it, it was maybe better if he went now, he could keep me in mind as I was now: young, agile and strong. And would not see how I would be weaker and divorced then one day... I thought it was better!
So I lifted my head back,  that was stuck on my chest for seconds and reminded myself that it was good the way it is ..!


"Hey, all right! So ... Shadow "I mustered the last self-control that I had to finish this quick here, because I honestly did not know how long I would hold out.
So i picked up my hand for a handshake, probably the last physical contact we would have before I would dig myself, in the coming weeks and months in packs of handkerchiefs, do not feel like doing anything, as it was back then, when I lost him right after the fight with Biolizard.

"You were the best rival that you can imagine ... believe me, I had a lot, heh! And ... even though I was not always fair, please remind yourself that ... you still always were kind of a friend to me, even if you were not very happy about it ...!” I smiled briefly. "But it was still always great to fight by your side ..." He stared at my hand, as if he thought about something really hard... Then he whispered almost too quiet that I could hear ... "Sometimes ... you've got a very stupid habit  that everything you say appears far too cheesy ... "
He grabbed my hand, but with far too much power and when he pulled it, I could not stand on my feet anymore. I was drawn forward by him, but his second hand that had laid itself on my back, just below my shoulder blades, stopped me and gave me back a degree of security
So I laid in his arms, my flushing only in the color levels exceeded, when, a few seconds later, he uttered a sentence while I was deeply staring into his eyes: "But you have so much more habits that are consistently good: not to judge people by their looks or prejudice, to help everyone you can, your developed sense of justice ... a good-hearted person, what is the saying? Beautiful from the inside ... But also your appearance is not to underrate... I just wish I could do THAT more than just now ...“
My breathing was fast, as his face was pushed closer to mine. Could it be ...? However, I rejected the idea at the next moment, as it turned out to be true! Shadow's soft lips laid on mine and my entire body tensed, as if I would face the latest killing machine from Eggman! The various noises behind us said that I was not dreaming: A squeak from Rouge, a gasp from Tails and a growl from Knuckles... finally an angry cry from Amy...

It did feel sorry for her, I knew how it was with her feelings, but at the moment I was in my own pleasure too caught up, to feel bad for her... Yes, I felt good and closed my eyes ... but I did not return the kiss or put my hands on his body ... not doing anything ... I knew that, no matter what I would do, Shadow would 100 percentage go with the Black Creatures and I swore I would not begin to hope, not now, but I realized that the longer it took, the more I enjoyed it and it would be even worse when he goes...

But since I would not like to push away from him …I made ... just nothing. Later, I cursed myself for that 1000 times, but right now, where everything depended on, I was too cowardly ... A little while later, Shadow´s grip on my back became a lot stronger, almost as he asks me a unspoken question. That and the fact that he started to open his mouth and began to lick my lower lip, was making me nervous! No ... No, not that! ...

I tried to hold myself back, not to fall for the temptation, but it was vain... Just as I was about to start the stormy kiss of my life, he pushed me so far away from himself as he could, his expression blank. He shook his head slightly as he tried to get himself back under control, like a guilty dog, what exactly knew he had done something really wrong ... His voice was quiet as he then began to speak:

"I-I'm ... sorry ... I did not ... I should not react so emotionally, I'm sorry, Sonic. I'm sorry for this miserable presentation of an emotional overreaction with I humiliated you and forced you to something you´d never... I'm just sorry for everything that ever happened between us! But, thank you…that you have made my decision so much easier to go, for both of us...I will now go and never bother you or anyone else on that damn planet ever again! ...
My eyes widened as he looked at me with so much emotion in his eyes, now again 1 meter space between us. Wait, wait ... I just wanted to raise my voice and tell what was just going through my head, but he turned his back on me!


"Wait, Shadow! I just wanted ... "But he just raised a hand, not stopping in his walk to the spaceship," It's okay, I've got it ... Let's not make this even more embarrassing as it already is! Farewell ... Sonic the Hedgehog. "

"No! NO "I cried the soul out of the neck, but I doubted that he could hear it when he entered the ship, and the two aliens behind him shut the door from the inside.

"No, Shadow ..." I only managed to whisper, my throat already exhausted, as the spacecraft ignited the engines and slowly rose into the air ... It seemed like hours as the ship disappeared over the horizon, which in the reality was probably only a few minutes. The sea blue sky engulfed the black and red vehicle perfectly...

A few moments of Silence past. The wind that swept through the park contributed to the mood ... If I could improve myself from before ... now was gloom and doom! I knew that I was crying, but did not know how long ... well ... he was gone forever, and I had missed the last chance ... if I had returned the kiss ... maybe I could have been with him right now?
I knew the idea was ridiculous: I do not think the aliens would have someone else accepted from the earth except their new king, and also to leave my friends was impossible, but the new, unknown, sad situation let overreact me so much…also when I heard soft footsteps coming towards me.

“Sonic ...? I ... "No, it was Tails, I didn´t wanted to see him, did not see anyone in this situation! Without even turning around, I started running. I ignored their calls, as I could feel the tears keep running down my cheeks, in the horizon disappearing, swallowed by the clear blue sky, like Shadow moments ago...
