My Promise (Shadow the Hedgehog x Maria's Sister! Reader)

Chapter 1: Sisters

I noticed I made a few mistakes after I watched the whole story of Maria on YouTube. 

For example, she was born and raised on the Ark while I typed she lived on Earth for small few years before catching NIDS and being sent to the Ark. 

--------------------------------

A 9-year-old girl stood in front of the window. She had H/C hair and blue eyes. She kept herself quiet while staring out through the window. The view was so beautiful if you were in my place. It was space. There were so many stars in the universe. There was also a moon, a big rocky ball that made circles around Earth, that was down below where you can have a good view. But if you were born and raised on the Ark like me and my twin sister, then you're mostly used to it. It was quite sad we couldn't be down on Earth and live like every normal human being GG told us.

My cute small hands were behind my back. I wore a cute F/C dress and a headband too. I wore also comfy flat shoes to match the color of my dress. The year was (choice). That's why I wore clothes from the 20th century. I was busy thinking things in my head. 

My name is Y/N Robotnik. Nice to meet you. I'm currently 9 years old and I lived on the Space Colony ARK or just Ark for short. I was born here with my twin sister, Maria Robotnik. I loved her to death. She was a kind and gentle human being ever. She had blond hair and the same blue eyes as I had. We matched. We weren't the only ones here. I mean, wouldn't you be suspicious if you saw little girls like us being alone on the Ark with no adult at all? We lived here together with Grandfather Gerald or just GG for short. He was a dorky and kind grandfather ever! He was also a great scientist at the time! He was bald with a funny grey long-looking mustache and wore always experimental glasses. He was our guardian.

You probably have questions about me, my family, and our lives. Well, as I said, I and Maria were born and raised on the Ark. I actually had no idea about the history of our family. I had also no idea who our parents were, but they weren't alive, sadly. Ever since their deaths, GG took care of us like a true grandfather should do: love and take care of his grandkid(s). 

From what I know, I was born first and Maria came a few minutes after. I was proud to be the oldest. My job was to love, help, support, and protect my family, especially Maria. Even though, GG's job was to protect and take care of us. But that wasn't the only job he was busy on. You see, Maria had Neuro-Immune Deficiency Syndrome or N.I.D.S (NIDS) for short. It was of course a condition but also sadly incurable and fatal disease. Not much is known about Neuro-Immune Deficiency Syndrome, although it appears to render its victims physically weak, a condition that only worsens over time. Victims of N.I.D.S. thus require constant medical attention. Or other words, playing rough games can make you weak that it will eventually kill you. Poor Maria... It was out of nowhere when she caught NIDS. It was unexpected! She was perfectly healthy and we were almost ready to visit Earth for the first time! However, when GG found out about Maria's disease, he forbid us to go down. He wanted to find the cure first for my twin so that she can play freely with other kids around our age. Sadly, that would never happen... At least, like living flesh. 

I believed and still do in the afterlife. I mean, there had to be! You do not live forever in your body like I am but your soul lives in the afterlife here. Space was pure and magical heaven. You were around and connected to stars. You can watch over your loved ones who were still alive. But I'm sure that some spirits were desperate to touch, heal and help their loved ones, especially when they were mentally sick. From what I noticed, physical pain was very different from emotional (or mental) pain. The physical was feeling pain in your bones, muscles, you name it. 

But emotional pain was far worse than physical. Everyone has emotions. We feel them every day. But some events can change you forever and damage your emotions badly. Depression was the most common and worse mental disease in the world. When you had it, it felt like you had demons inside your head. It wasn't fair at all that humans could catch depression fast by not having a social life or much worse stuff... But depression came a lot when a person lost someone. The pain was so unbearable that it was very difficult to win the battle. Half of the people sadly don't survive when they experience the loss of a person for the first time. Others managed to survive and move on but the pain will be always a part of you... forever. But I learned that barely a few countries allow this to happen: euthanasia.
