Breaking The Ice (SonAmy)

Chapter 12

"You're siding with an immortal?" Sonic said raising an imaginary eyebrow.

"Aren't you?" Shadow smirked they both made their way to the entrance of a bar.

Looking around, they saw a two empty chair and headed that way. As soon as they reach the seats, the bartender approached them immediately.

"What can i get you two?" he said.

"Two Long Island Tex. Less ice." Sonic answered.

"I heard you stopped toying around women. What an unexpected surprise." Shadow said not looking at him.

"After you left the clan. Grandfather forced me to lead the company, making me the new leader." Sonic said seriously as the bartender bring their drinks to them.

"Hmph. They all knew i never want to lead the clan." Shadow glared.

"You're 813 years old now."

"What did i tell you keeping this in private." Shadow said coldly.

"My apologies." Sonic said.

Flashback

"Shadow. I called you to pass the leadership. In my age. I don't think i can protect our clan like you can."

"We discussed this before, grandfather. I never wanted to be the clan's leader." Shadow growled.

"You are the eldest. It is your responsibility. If you refuse. You will never be acknowledged as part of the clan!"

"Then so be it!" Shadow growled out. The window glass cracked while the lights flicker above them. He left his grandfather behind while trying to decrease his demonic aura before he destroy more things.

Out of nowhere, a blue color caught his eyes. Turning his head, he saw his younger brother hiding in one of the curtain.

"Sonic. What are you doing here?" He asked calmly trying not to frighten his brother.

"Are you and grandfather fighting? I dont want you two to fight." Sonic quietly mumbled looking up at his brother.

At this time, Sonic was only 87 years old and Shadow was 300 years old.

"Its okay. We're not fighting." Shadow smiled a bit.

"Really?" Sonic said wiping away a tear.

"You shouldn't let anyone see you cry. It will make them think you are weak." Shadow chuckled.

"I'm not weak! I want to be strong like you!"

End of Flashback

Deep in Shadow's mind. He knew the left he left their clan, Sonic knew what was happening between him and their grandfather.

That is why when Sonic was throned to be the clan leader. He made sure he will never follow the path his brother did, but he also knew the he must stay and keep in touch with him for all he knew, Shadow could help when another clan attacked them.

We once offered him a life in luxury, but Shadow refused saying that this is his punishment.

"How's normal life treating you." Sonic stated as he glance to him.

"I realized. This life we have isnt worth it." Shadow said as he took a sip. "I watched how they spend every minute of their lives. Making every moment worth it."

"That is why you walked away." Sonic mumbled.

"Ah." Shadow replied. "I want to be normal. Like them. Grateful that grandfather disgrace me."

"Blaze." Amy called out from the kitchen of their dorm.

"What is it?" Blaze replied.

"Didnt you noticed Shadow and Mr. Sonic was acting a little weird earlier?" Amy frown.

"Yeah? Didnt noticed that." Blaze simply answered.

Amy absent-mindedly stared at the food she was preparing.
