Shadow stood silently as he watched Tails ask for help over his watch. Shadow twitched his ear and looked over his shoulder as he could barely see the beginning of the sunrise. At the very beginning of dawn as a very faint orange glow came from where the sun would soon rise.
Shadow huffed softly as he let his shoulders relax as his body was still tense from the fight. Closing his eyes Shadow took a deep inhale before exhaling slowly as he stood there. Once Tails was able to get in contact with Amy she told him that she was on her way to help. Tails closed his watch and looked over at Sonic's body. Tails' heart was still racing as he felt awful. His eyes couldn't look away from Sonic as his mind was racing as he seemed shell-shocked from what happened.
Shadow walked over and knelt down next to Tails then looked down at Sonic. he didn't look at tails however his tone was a bit softer than usual ".. I'm not great with comfort. So don't expect me to help much. However, I will acknowledge the fact you did something that was brave and difficult for you."
Shadow closed his eyes and huffed softly as he opened his eyes again before he looked over at Tails. Tails didn't look at Shadow as his eyes were glued onto Sonic. His voice was barely a whisper as he quietly thanked Shadow before he carefully sat down next to Sonic. Bringing his legs to his chest and seemed to just quietly wait for Amy to come.
Shadow stared at Tails for a while longer before looking over at Knuckles who was still out cold. Shadow thought quietly before he looked at Tails again. " I need to contact someone. "
He spoke as his gaze was serious and his voice was very monotoned he held his hand out looking at him. Tails looked at his own wrist and nodded quietly as he unhooked his watch from his wrist and placed it carefully in Shadow's hand. Tails then mumbled explaining how to call someone on the device for him.
Shadow nodded quietly and slowly stood back up and walked away from Tails and the others. Once he was far enough away Shadow used the watch and contacted Rouge. The two talked briefly before Rouge hung up on him Mid him explaining something. Shadow exhaled annoyed but closed the watch once Rouge ended the call.
He walked over to Tails again and set the watch next to him before he walked away. Gaining some distance Shadow stood looking over at the sun barely peaking over the horizon. It didn't take long for Amy to appear.
Amy ran over to Tails and Sonic and Shadow looked over at the two. He was out of earshot but watched Tails seem to start getting teary-eyed and watched Amy hug Tails to try and comfort him. Shadow watched for a little bit longer Amy tried to calm Tails' down. Shadow looked over back at the sunrise and gave the two well-needed space. A few minutes passed and Shadow flicked his ear hearing the sound of wing flaps.
He looked over his shoulder and Rouge carefully landed near Shadow. She walked over to him and huffed softly. " How are you holding up?" She asked placing a hand on her own hip.
Shadow huffed harshly as he spoke honestly to Rouge as he knew he was out of earshot from everyone else. " Tired. And soar, but nothing I can't handle." He spoke as he shrugged his shoulder.
Rouge frowned as she narrowed her eyes noticing Shadow's other arm not moving as much as his other arm. " did you seriously hurt yourself again? Give me your arm."
Shadow turned his body away from her. " I'm fine."
She angrily huffed. " Excuse me?- your arm. Now." She spoke holding her hand out. She stood there getting annoyed by Shadow's stubbornness.
Shadow rolled his eyes and after a while, he slowly turned to face Rouge. He narrowed his eyes sneering at Rouge.
She ignored Shadow and carefully grabbed his arm. " can you feel me touching your arm?" Shadow calmly said he can before Rouge nodded and would slowly bend his arm. " does it hurt for me to bend it?" He calmly said no and Rouge nodded softly. " okay, it looks like it's just a dislocation." She spoke as she gripped Shadow's shoulder. " I'm gonna count to three and pop your arm back into place, take a deep breath when I say 3 got it?"
