Lifeless life without you

TW: suicide, character dead

Shadow the Hedgehog

What a suitable name for someone people knew barely anything about. He was quiet and reserved and didn't really have a liking for people. Can't blame him. G.U.N. tried to kill him. Thrice.
Why couldn't it be me that died? It should've been me who died. He didn't deserve this. He may have been messed up, but he was trying to be a good person. I should've been paying more attention...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Poor Sonic now has too much on his plate is it?" Eggman cackled in evil delight.
We were up against an 8ft robot with deadly lasers and the tightest grip in the world and I was busy trying to protect Tails and Amy.
Tails' tails got torched by the laser and Amy almost had the life crushed out of her by the robot's deadly claws. I was tending to both of them while Shadow distracted it.
"Take this you furry brat!" Eggman cried before aggressively smacking a button on his control panel. Out of nowhere, I felt a body crash into mine.
I spun around from where I sat crouched in front of my friends and saw Shadow with a hand over his heart. At first I wanted to yell but then realization struck me like lightning and my heart fell into my stomach where it began disintergrating.
Blood dripped from the hole and Eggman sat in complete silence. I couldn't breathe. My entire world felt like it had ended while I was still in it and I hated it.
I whimpered subconsciously and knelt near his near-dead body. I felt for a pulse on his neck and found a very faint one. So faint that with each second, the gap between beats grew larger and larger.
"Sh-Shadow?" My voice is only a whisper. I can't bring myself to talk louder. I feel like I'd drained the life out of him quicker if I did. Tears stung my eyes and covered my cheeks in a matter of nanoseconds.
Shadow wheezed before coughing up a cupful of blood and attempting to speak.
"So-Sonic," he muttered in a breathy voice. I leaned closer so he would use less effort in speaking loudly.
"I... L-Love... You..." He spluttered again but much harder as his entire body lurched forward and fell back but into my arms now.
"Always have... Always will..." He forced the eyes that he'd been keeping closed to open and what those ebony eyelids revealed broke my entire soul.
Ruby red eyes were fading, growing glassy and reddening all at the same time. Shadow wanted to cry but he didn't want to do it in front of me.
"End this," he mumbled. "For... Me..."
And with that, he went limp in my arms, my tears staining his lifeless face. His soul literally slipped through my fingers and there was nothing I could do about it.
I caressed his face and prayed that it would somehow bring him back to life but nothing happened. He just remained inanimate.
I choked on a sob before resting him down on the floor and rising up from the ground with my eyes still trained on his still figure.
"I-... I didn't think that- I'm so sorry--" Eggman was stumbling over his words but I wasn't listening.
In the time it took for him to put together a coherent sentence, I'd already jumped up to where he sat in a command room in the wall and stood in front of him menacingly.
I put both my hands on his face and looked at him with a neutral expression before frowning and snapping his neck with a gentle yet firm flick of my wrists.
He died instantly and painlessly but I felt no shame whatsoever. He killed a hero. He killed my hero. Now he'll get to pay for his sins.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I will never forgive myself for Shadow's death. He died protecting me. Me. I didn't deserve his love but yet I still loved him just as much. If I could've somehow gotten him help quick enough I would've but we all knew from the moment we saw the hole that we'd never make it in time.
Time
Everyone said it would get better with time but it hasn't. It's been 3 damn years and I'm still sitting here waiting for you to jump out of somewhere or something and shout "Surprise!" but it hasn't happened. It never will, will it?
I love him too much to accept the fact that he's gone. I refuse to believe that he's really not here anymore. I love him. With every little piece of me and I'll do anything to have him back.
"Please... Give him back to me... Please... Take me instead just--... Bring my hero back..." I was tempted to wail in pain and sorrow but held back by biting at my lower lip.
He lost the only family he knew, he had his memory stripped from him, he's been used as a murder weapon twice and he had to be Eggman's lackey. He suffered through all of that but still put others' needs before his own yet somehow, by some manner of folley, he was still a bad guy.
Well if he was a bad guy, he was the worst bad guy ever but the best good guy ever. He was a badass (bad boy) sure, but beneath that was a strong yet fragile person who cared a lot about things. He was a dark angel. He just didn't know he was my dark angel.
I breathed deeply and blinked rapidly to get rid of any tears that felt courageous enough to escape my eyes. He had to be strong. For Shadow's sake.
I can't go on like this. I want to be with you, in your arms, whispering sweet nothings and spicy somethings into your soft furred ears as they twitch at the feel of my hot breath against them. I want to-- No I need to be with you.
But I can't. So many people depend on me to protect them and I can't just leave them.
But what's the point of me fighting when I've nothing to fight for? Giving when you've never gotten anything in return? Caring when clearly no one feels the same?
You'd most possibly be disappointed in me for being selfish enough to take my life but maybe it's time for me to think about myself for once. What's one more death in a world filled with billions of people? No one checks on me anyway so it'd be a while before anyone actually found my rotting corpse.
What's stopping me?
Without further hesitation, I clambered off my bed and headed towards my dresser. I pulled out a key from my quills and unlocked the only locked drawer there was. In it was a pistol with a silencer already attached.
"It's yours... It was yours..." I state to the empty room in hopes that he actually hears me.
I stare at it with all kinds of things flooding my brain.
Is this really a good idea? What about Tails and the others? But what about what I need as well?
The last thought is what motivated me to raise the pistol to point against my forehead. I stared in my mirror and remembered the words you said when we fought for the first time together and went our separate ways.
"Sayonara Sonic the Hedgehog."
I chuckle, but with no humor in it.
I continue to look at my reflection before giving it a meek smile of acceptance.
"Sayonara Sonic the Hedgehog," I whispered and pulled the trigger as everything went black.
Sayonara Hedgehogs. Sayonara indeed.

Shadow. Shadow The Hedgehog...

Why did you do that, why, why are you still doing this to me. You could live now and I will be in your place...

I don't know how long ago you left, but I know why you left, me, your friends. Don't know if you could say that he had some friends, but still he had at least me...

He faded away when we were fighting Eggman, that was our last fight. We were fighting a big robot that was at least 5 meters big. He charge at me with his deadly laser, I was too focused to protect Amy and Tails that I didn't spotted the laser that charge at me. But sadly, Shadow did...

The last thing he said to me before he died was:

"I loved you all the time we went trough and will always love you, Sonic The Hedgehog..."

These was the last words of Shadow The Hedgehog...

And he didn't even know that I loved and still love him.

Everyone is asking me if I'm fine, but I'm not...

But I'm right here.

Here at the cemetery.

Near your Grave.

And you are still doing that to me. You are still waiting for the right moment that you can scare me to death, when you come out of these bushes right there, but it's more then 3 years that you're gone and you think that this is funny... I think it's not.

That's all I'm asking you for, just come back to me, that's all I'm asking for, just, please.

Please.

PLEASE!!

No, there is nothing that can take you back...

Or

Is it?

*sigh* Well I was waiting for you very long time, but I think that it's time for me to come along with you.

Well the last think that I should say now is.

Sayonara lifeless world...

*bang*
