Shadow's Past Chapter 1

Shadow'S Past Chapter 7

--Earth, Prison Island--

Shadow had gone into a state of deep sleep while he took his long fall from the ARK. The capsule had fell still with out disturbing the hedgehog and was taken under G.U.N hands. Professor Gerald now a deranged mad man had been locked away in a cell under water. He managed to scrape things in the wall with the edge of his cuffs. Numbers and DNA symbols, letters and terminology in different languages.

"Alright, look old man. Just shut him down and for ever put the rodent to rest in peace." A guard pushed him in the cell where they had kept Shadow in his sleeping state.

"This might take... a few months..." Gerald said sadly.

"You don't have months. Just get it done as fast as you can." The guard left the professor to his work.

"Shut him down..." He mumbled, "he isn't some robot. This is living flesh and flowing blood. Your cruel waist of a human. You just wait, you'll all suffer from my revenge." He still grumbled as he opened the pod to where shadow slept.

Shadow awakened just as he had the very first time he opened his eyes. He looked at the familiar face of the professor and felt relieved, "Professor!" He quickly sat up reaching out ready to grab him in a hug.

"I had the most terrible dream! A, a night mare is it? It was awful."

Shadow was pushed back down with out a word from the professor. Confused Shadow looked around at the strange place and saw where he resided in. The escape capsule from the ARK, his night mare wasn't over yet.

"Oh...oh professor it's all my fault!" Shadow began. "I wasn't thinking straight, I should have carried her. I shouldn't have listened to you behind that door I'm sorry!"

"Hush Shadow!" Gerald yelled. Shadow jumped at his tone but did as he was told. As the professor typed codes on a machine next to him Shadow sighed.

"Just shut me down Professor. My reason of life is no longer here. I've failed. Let me be with her or go to hell. Where ever I belong!"

"I can't do that." Gerald looked over at Shadow, "As I said Shadow you are my son. I can't lose a grand-daughter, and be expected to kill my own son. If it were possible. Your DNA just doesn't allow it."

"You mean... I am an alien spawn!?" Shadow gasped.

"Call it what you will..." he kept on at work, "Now listen Shadow, all that you have learned, it's time to put it to use."

"What?"

"The fighting, gun training, everything, also there are a few abilities I couldn't teach it to you my self. There is chaos spear, chaos lance, chaos nightmare, chaos control and many others, you will know how to do them when I'm finished with you. Now just hold still." he held out a long needle with a clear solution in the syringe.

"W-wait!" Shadow squirmed and tried to escape, "What do you mean? I don't understand."

"Revenge Shadow! Those heartless creators killed Maria."

Shadow had a knot at his throat at the word.

"She didn't deserve to die. Did she..."

"No..."

"NO! Of course not! She was a nice sweet girl, with her whole life a head of her! School, marriage, children, a career of her own! And they just put an end to it all!!!" The professor now yelled. Shadow's ears went down and bowed his head to the enraged creator afraid of his hostile behavior and a needle in his hand.

"That's why you Shadow, YOU are going to kill every last one of these people! I don't care if you have to chaos blast the whole world!! None of them deserve life after what they do!"

"B-but Professor, Maria said not everyone is-"

"I know what Maria said! I've taught her that way! But being that way get's you know where! That's why I'm teaching you now, revenge Shadow! It's what I want! And if you don't then your going to lose me too."

"Professor, I understand your angry. But the whole world doesn't-" Shadow winced in pain at the sting and pinch of the needle. "O-OW!" Shadow looked up at the professor who was blocking all reason.

"Wha-what was that?" Shadow asked nervously. He was always told what injection did what and why he was getting them. He didn't get an answer and soon he felt his body go numb and his head made him feel like he was floating.

"Whoa! Professor, this feels weird!" Shadow tried to speak with out tripping over his tong.

"Relax Shadow. Stay quiet." He ordered.

Shadow did as told only hoping his eyes that fell heavy would never open again
