Falling in love with a shadow... ( A ShadAmy story)

Love is selfless, love is caring

Shadow's POV:

What just happened? Okay well I saw flames in the park, so I ran in the direction they were, when I got there and realized... This is Amy's house. How did I know? Amy was laying, in the grass out cold with a suitcase next to her. I ran over to her and picked her up bridal style, grabbed her suitcase, then chaos controlled to the old house in the mountain I called home. I actually had to move some branches from the doorway and that messed up my quills. After I laid her on my bed, I sat down on a chair I found in a yard sale. Sleep came over me in a matter of moments. And the dream I had was nuts.

I woke up on a iceberg wearing a tux surrounded by penguins, then the fat man from the flying ship started stealing them. So I told him "No that's my penguin give it back!" That's when the dream changed, I was in paradise! A world made of chocolate! I was about to enter my chocolate house, when Sonic started to eat it, "No that's my chocolate house!" Dream changed again. This time I was in a tux, in a church standing next to the preacher, that's when music started to play... And Amy started to walk down the isle in a dress of white... She approached me and turned to face. "Amy I love you." She smiled and mouthed the words 'I love you too.' That's when she started to fade, I tried to grab her but it was too late she was already gone.

I woke up to see an empty bed... I almost started to panic, that's when I looked out the window and saw her moving leaves... It almost looks like she's looking for something... Maybe I should go out there and help her. I tuned around and almost laughed at my reflection. I look horrible. I quickly fixed it, then went outside to see Amy falling on her knees crying... I was confused what is she looking at? So I walked over and put my hand on her shoulder, she looked up sadness, anguish, and a small sliver of fear were in her eyes.

I knelt down and put a arm around her shoulders... She leaned against me the tears still streaming down her face, I was confused by her, that's when I noticed the grave. She looked back at me, and pointed at the grave, "That's my Mother..." A racking sob left her body. Then a few pieces started to click together, she knew these graves were here because she used to live here the question is when?

"It says on the grave she died fourteen years ago... How old are you?" I said looking back at her.

"Shadow, tsk tsk, you never ask a lady her age." I felt cheeks reddened, I should have thought before I asked. "But since I know you I guess I'll tell you... She died when I was four, I barely remember anything about her, but I remember her smile... And her screams that she yelled the day she died..." Her screams??? Amy saw her mother the day she died? "I'm eighteen, I ran away from here when I was six... It's my fault she's gone now... It's my fault." Another sob escaped from her, and the tears increased, her body shaking from the sobs.

"It's not your fault Amy." I said pulling her into a hug hoping to at least comfort her. She pushed away from me and pushed away the last few leaves reveling the last few words: Killed by her own creation. Omg... She... She...

"No Shadow it is my fault! I killed her! I killed all these animals and her!" She indicated to the other stones, she killed all of them... "I had a very twisted childhood. Now answer me when I say this... Do you still love me?" I was shocked, how did she know I loved her? She got up and ran into the forest that was on the mountains... I should be running the other way, I should be scared of her, I should be afraid of her...

But instead I'm strangely... Impressed by her... I know I shouldn't be. But who tells youe that they killed their own mother when they were a kid? Shadow you need to get out of here she could hurt you... But somewhere deep down I know that she isn't a monster, she wouldn't hurt anyone on purpose. She won't hurt me. "Amy! Wait!" I got up and ran after her. She didn't stop she literally spun around trees and hurtled over logs. She was agile, but she wasn't fast, which means I can reach her in a matter of seconds. "Amy! Stop!" Suddenly I noticed her fur get darker trees started to close around her making it harder for me to catch up to her. "AMY!" She kept running.

Shadow your an idiot, your the ultimate life form, just chaos control to her. Sometimes I really hate the little voice in my head that keeps giving me advice.

"Chaos Control!" I appeared right in front of her, and she in turn ran right into me. We both fell to the ground, I grabbed her arms, as she tried to struggle, she wasn't doing it to hurt me, but to get away from me to protect me. "Amy, please stop struggling." I pleaded.

"No! I don't want to hurt anyone anymore, including you!" Tears started to stream down her face again. "Please. I'm a monster..."

"No Amy! Your not a monster!" I interrupted.

"Yes I am!" She yanked against me again.

"No. Amy your not." I said as gently as I could. "Please listen to me... Your not a monster..." Her struggling lessened and she looked into my eyes as I looked into her. "Please, your kind, you are caring, your amazing, not to mention beautiful," she blushed and looked away, I smirked, "You put others needs before your own, you do everything in your power to help others in need, you even helped a stranger like me." I slowly let go of one of her arms, to lift her chin back up so she was looking into my eyes again. "You asked me if I still loved you, and I do, I do love you, even if you killed me I would still love you. Because that's what love is putting others needs before your own. I would put aside my own pain to protect you. Now will you answer me when I say this, will you go to the dance with me?"

Her eyes clouded in tears, tears of joy. Her head started to nod rapidly. "Yes, yes I will go with you." She hugged me and I hugged back.

"I love you..."

"I love you too."

Two months later

The dance

)()()()()()()()(

The time me and Amy spent together at her old house, felt like days rather than months. Amy had got a job at the Karaoke place, so she could buy us food. She's been avoiding her friends lately. And hasn't talked to them since the day she broke up with Fakers team. She seemed happier that she could do as she pleased without someone taking her as hostage. Sometimes while she was shopping for food she would bring home an extra bag or two, no idea why.

And if your wondering if we ever had our first kiss or even stared to date, the answer is no. No we haven't.

But tonight I planned to change that. And as I walked her from the alleyway that we chaos controlled into, I finally figured out what Amy brought home in those extra bags. Materials to make a dress.

But as we approached the dance dancing not fifty feet from the entrance was the eight people I didn't want to see, Fakers Team.

I will post the answers next chapter, promise. Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye.
