Shadow's Intrusive Thoughts

Shadow stops running as he reaches the city

He walks with his head down

He wears a red and black striped t shirt and a leather jacket along with black jeans

His entire outfit is messy and tattered with tears and stains

He walks into a gas station and back out with a bottle of the hardest liquor he could find

He walks through the city streets in the pouring rain at night while sipping on the liquor

[Shadow's]
They're better off without me anyways, they're just extra things that I would have to worry about and I would become weak, I'm best on my own distant from any relationships

Shadow turns a corner and gets splashed by a car that speeds by

[Shadow]
Of course the one car that's out tonight manages to soak me

Shadow keeps walking, drinking and talking to himself in the empty streets

As he gets more intoxicated he gets more unsteady staining his shirt and pants with alcohol and tripping over his feet every once in a while

[Shadow's]
I already worry about them, I didn't have to lie and say I didn't care, and I didn't have to be such a dick either

Shadow growls loudly and kicks an empty trashcan down the sidewalk

He sighs and picks it back up

[Shadow's]
This is no time to get angry, I gotta stay calm and work my thoughts out so I can fix things

Shadow keeps walking along getting more and more irritated by his own mind

He smashes the liquor bottle over a stop sign and stabs himself multiple times

He let's out an angry yell and throws the bottle shank into a brick wall making it shatter because he's unable to harm himself significantly

He does puncture his skin however now having blood stains running down his shirt and dripping down his pants making trails of blood under his feet

He punches the sign denting it then he bends the pole it's attached to

He let's out a big huff of frustration and continues walking

Shadow stops in the middle of the street and sits down on the soaking wet asphalt

He stares down the empty street hoping to see a car turn down it

After a few minutes and then gives up laying down on the street feeling defeated

He lays there as his fur and clothes get soaked and then says in an angry deep voice

[Shadow]
I'm so fucking pathetic

He closes his eyes and continues to lay in the middle of the soaking wet street for several minutes until he eventually passes out

(2AM)

Sonic walks up to Shadow seeing him lay in the street
