The Lubriem Alternate Universe (LAU) is a Lubriem-confirmed alternate universe canon to an existing franchise. Shadow was only protecting Earth to conquer it himself someday. That day has arrived. "I love you, Alinta" were Shadow's final words to his girlfriend before he and their friends battled Black Doom and his Black Arms. He has gone missing for now five days, along with Mobius' hero, Sonic, and the other heroes and anti-heroes who accompanied them. The Mobius council cannot contact the blue blur or his friends. Neither can G.U.N. with the Ultimate Life Form or Team Dark. Worried that the Black Arms defeated them and possibly killed them, with the exception of Shadow, who was likely forced to join the Black Arms, Alinta Emerald stays at G.U.N. headquarters, awaiting Shadow and their friends' return. Early in the morning on the sixth day, Alinta is awakened by a familiar hedgehog. Shadow has safely returned home. Or has he? As the couple is hugging, Alinta realizes that Shadow is different. The black cape ripped at the end. His eyes lacking irises and pupils. The two Black Arms soldiers standing behind him. After defeating Black Doom, Shadow established himself as the new leader of the Black Arms. He finally revealed his true intentions to their friends before he and his new army overpowered them and imprisoned them. He will rule Earth with a gloved fist on behalf of his best friend Maria and his girlfriend Alinta. But first, Shadow must convince Alinta to join him. To be his queen. Since that she is a corrupted emerald, he will simply corrupt her. He has not given her a reason to not trust him. Why should she not trust him now? "You were mine the second that you were born.~ You will be mine until our worlds end.~ Even if you betray me, you will always be my little emerald.~ That is how much I love you.~ I cannot breathe without you.~" Sonic the Hedgehog by Sega Alinta Emerald, the Lubriem, and Other Forlot Characters by Forlot_Forever Music by Audiomachine
