Whispers in the Dark (A Sonic Fanfiction)

No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I'm never far
Hear my whispers in the dark

When Shadow the Hedgehog gets wind of a new faker imitating him, he goes on the hunt. No one uses his image and ruins his reputation.
Whisper the Wolf continues her battle against the shape-shifting traitor Mimic, who continues to open up old traumas. This time he's imitating Shadow, a painful reminder of her team's death at the hand of the Shadow Androids.
When their conflicts collide, Shadow and Whisper (along with Tangle) team up to take down Mimic and find out they have more things in common than they realize. Unfortunately, that includes dealing with trauma. And as Mimic tries to use their traumas against them, can they continue to be friends? Or will their memories end up tearing their friendship and themselves apart?

I'm creating a playlist for this fic so I will be putting recommended songs at the beginning of each chapter if you want to listen to help set the mood.
