How could he be so carefree and relaxed all the time when it feels as if all of Mobius relies on him? Shadow struggles to find peace as he has constant nightmares and thoughts of his past. He lost his only purpose, Why was he even here? Why did he have to be created if all he's ever brought is pain and suffering to those he loves? Things start to change after his friends force him to stop fighting with Sonic for the good of the team. Shadow and Sonic are as different as can be...but is that really so bad?

Stay - The Rain
Sonic was always the light - the unshakable, untouchable hero. But beneath the speed and the smile, he was breaking. Years of buried trauma, unspoken hurt, and Shadow's relentless words finally push him to vanish in silence, leaving the team behind. When he returns, he's different. Quieter. Precise. Smiling too widely and speaking only when necessary. He deflects every question, absorbs every insult, and lives like he's trying to be what everyone wants - even if it's killing him inside. Shadow notices first. And slowly, painfully, he realizes the damage his own words carved into someone already drowning. As missions cease and the world quiets, the team watches Sonic spiral deeper - refusing food, hurting in silence, breaking piece by piece. But through quiet gestures, sleepless nights, and tender moments in borrowed hoodies, Sonic begins to heal - not by erasing the pain, but by letting someone stay with him through it.

Where Madness Lives (Sonadow)
You think your life is crazy? Or maybe just dead boring? Sonic has grown tired of playing the hero - everything feels cliché, meaningless, and hollow to him. He feels lost, as if something or someone is missing. He longs to escape his familiar life. He has friends, who are also his family, yet he still feels empty, like there's a piece missing inside him - a void that no one and nothing can fill. Dates, battles, saving the world - none of it feels real anymore. But he's about to learn the hard way what it truly means to be careful what you wish for. In the realm of madness, a wave is set in motion - one neither he nor his rival can understand or control. Their shared, deranged, and chaotic adventure has no escape. It's a place where the Chaos Emeralds come at a steep price, where logic doesn't exist, where up is down, and nothing makes sense. But within this madness lies a chance - a chance to uncover the deepest, most hidden parts of themselves and of each other, parts even they didn't know existed. What is reality? Does normality exist in the swirling pit of madness? Does it even matter what's normal? What are norms, anyway? What truly matters? Is the world really what's gone insane? Or have they just never been able to see things clearly until now? The truly mad are those who act by their own convictions, who see things others cannot. This journey opens a door between those who've clung to a life and self they believed to be normal. So what comes out of all this? 😘Complete

Dark Legacy
From weapon to warrior to reluctant hero, Shadow the Hedgehog thought he had finally outrun his demons. The Ultimate Lifeform who once grappled with cosmic threats and his own existence now faced a different kind of challenge: normalcy. Trading chaos emeralds for coffee dates, he built something he never thought possible - a future filled with love, laughter, and the promise of forever with the one who saw past his scars. But destiny has a cruel sense of humor. The very blood that makes him extraordinary now betrays him, as Black Doom's sinister return awakens the dormant alien DNA coursing through his veins. With each passing day, the carefully constructed walls of his peaceful life crack and splinter. The darkness he once conquered whispers seductive promises of power, threatening to drag him back to the solitary existence he knew before. Now Shadow stands at a crossroads, caught between the warmth of love and the cold embrace of his heritage. As the shadow of Black Doom looms ever larger, he must face his greatest fear: that the very power that makes him unique could destroy everything - and everyone - he has grown to cherish. Takes place a few years after the last chapter of "Crossfire" (not the epilogue). I would love it if you all read that first, but it is not needed to understand this story :)Complete
