Mrs. Sonia the Hedgehog equals not happy. She had heard from Tails that her children had been found on the Enterprise and the droids had already begun to search the other ships for stowaways. So far Lucas, Sonia, Hurc and Emily had been found on the Enterprise, Storm, Alana and Whirl had been found on the EPS Valiant. The other parents had already scolded their children via video COM. But Sonia hadn't been a single parent for thirteen years for nothing. She knew that her kids would never listen to any parent on some stupid video COM. She knew how to make her children squirm. Of course, Shadow . . . They would be utterly terrified if she would call him to 'interrogate' them like he had after the horrid St. Petersburg incident. But he wasn't here right now, so she would serve.
The memories brought a familiar pang to her heart. She was worried for him. Extremely worried. She had fought Umbra and he had almost killed her without breaking a sweat. They had never faced such an indomitable foe before.
As she walked through the halls for a 'Scolding Session', she uttered an almost inaudible prayer for her husband. And just incase, for the rest of the world, that they might find their way through the night.

Shadow ran faster than had ever run before. His injured left leg had just barely been disintegrated. Umbra had launched a huge blast, even larger than the blast used on the Doctor. It could have easily take out that Church in Russia where they had made the trade.
The blast lasted at least for five minutes. It was as though he was trying to make sure he had gotten rid of that 'troublesome hedgehog.'
Even though he didn't want to, Shadow did see what had happened to his left leg. All this time, even when he was running with it, he didn't know what bad shape he was in. Turns out, a good portion of the skin had been ripped off and the wound had penetrated to the bone. Blood flowed out of it and spread all over the dark corrupted ground. His jet boots were crimson.
If he had been a lesser man—hedgehog—he would have either screamed in pain or let his breakfast go. As he was Shadow, he did neither, though on the inside there was this 'little' voice that was howling and screeching.
The dark light vanished from view and Shadow could see his adversary again through the dust, rubble and smoke in the air. Umbra had used all of the energy to hold his stronger form and once again reverted back to his 'normal' structure. He was panting heavily. Though Shadow could tell Umbra couldn't see him, he had a very satisfied smirk plastered on his scaly mug.
Shadow looked behind him to see if his plan had worked. He couldn't see, but he could hear rumbling. That could be a good sign. He thought. He stood still for a few more minutes. He needed to let Umbra think he had been obliterated in the blast. Making that alien son of a ^%!&#$* build his hopes and then crash them would be SWEETLY cruel.
Then laughter. Shadow smirked. Umbra was laughing, very much so. That meant that he thought he had won. "YES!" Shadow heard him yell at the top of his lungs in triumph. "I WIN! I AM THE TRUE ULTIMATE LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE! EVEN WITH YOUR SO CALLED IMMORTALITY, I WON!"
Shadow knew this was perfect. This was the point he where Umbra's joy would crash down like the thing behind him would soon enough.
"Hey, Umbra!" Shadow yelled, his voice full of very-'unShadow'-cockiness, as he emerged out of the rubble. "Never turn you back on an opponent!"
