    Shadow carefully maneuvered around a huge tree, cautiously stepping on the soft snow-covered moss. He had no recollection of entering these woods, hell he couldn’t even remember he had chosen to go on a walk during this torturous snow.Why?That was a question he asked himself a lot.Why did he have to be created an omega? Why did he have to hide it to become something more? Why did he have to go on a walk? Why did he have to be angered so easily? Why did he have to lose everything he loved?Why? Why? Why?He scowled deeply, curse his intrusive thoughts.Just as he was on the verge of snapping at something, a certain blue hedgehog popped in his head. He halted, shocked at how easily he let his mind wander to a fool of a Hero.Flashes of the times they fought coursed through his brain, Sonic pinning him to the ground with a challenging glint in his green emeralds. Shadow remembered that day vividly, he could still pick out the details of his cobalt fur. The smell of citrus and grass filled his mind on each inhale.Shadow felt his face heat up, as he remembered. He shoved the thought away and continued his walk through the snow.“Knock it off” he grumbled to no one.An ache coursed through his heart and once again he froze his careful pace.It had been years since he saw the beloved hero of Mobius. After an intense fight with Dr. Eggman, he went missing. The Doctor was charged for the possibility of the worldly hero’s disappearance.Many have tried to find Sonic, but eventually, after months of searching, they assumed that he didn’t want to be found. Lazy @ssh@l@… thinks he can get out of it so easily? He stopped his thoughts from becoming more biased toward the blue rat.SNAPShadow’s ears flipped backward, his quills puffed out in a warning.“Show yourself ” he growled. Shadow’s dark fur stood on end, his mind screaming for him to back away but a tantalizing scent had caught his attention.He unconsciously walked forward, possibly putting his life at risk but he loved the thrill. He had always been best chums with adrenaline. A true junkie, indeed.“Shadow?” a deep voice asked. He didn’t recognize it, but at the same time, it sounded vaguely familiar.His heart was racing, pounding against his chest.“Who the hell are you?” he asked calmly, although he was becoming more and more unnerved as the voice took a few minutes to respond. Suddenly the figure stepped into the light of the moon and Shadow gasped.Sonic?No, this could not be Sonic, not the Hero of Mobius, not his long-time rival. No. No. No. No.“Shadow, it’s me” The beast came forward, as slow as possible. Shadow stepped back and tripped on a frozen stick. Curse his uncharacteristic nervousness.The beast stepped forward more and Shadow could tell the resemblance. His fur was a bit paler and poofy. Great for colder weather, like tonight. Not to mention how big he was. He towered over the dark hedgehog easily, sharp fangs caught his attention as they gleamed in the light. “Sonic? W-what happened to you?” his voice shook as the huge monster sat on the floor next to where Shadow had fallen.“I don’t really wanna talk about that right now… but- What are you doing out so late? And while it’s snowing?” The beast- no Sonic, looked at the moon and huffed, clearly annoyed.“I was- nevermind that” he grumbled. As the words left his tan lips, a gusty breeze passed through and chills spread throughout his body. Snow whipped his face, making sharp prickles of pain spiked his vision.In an instant Sonic wrapped his arms around Shadow, easily scooping him up. “Sonic” he snarled, “Put me down right-” but he paused as Sonic pressed him close and was surrounded by his body heat, enveloping him in that familiar smell. Although it was now toned with a bit of dog smell. Gross. Shadow was not going to complain about the warmth, he felt much better now being out of the harsh snow.“C’mon, stay with me, please? Just until the storm passes?” Sonic’s voice was laced with absolute longing and loneliness. Shadow nodded, he felt a tad bit sorry for the hedge- uh- thing.“Just for tonight”-“I know, I know… it’s not much but- It’s home for me.” Sonic stood in the middle of the huge cave, proudly showing off his humble home. Shadow’s nose recoiled at the smell, a heavy potent wet dog scent. There was a small firepit in the middle next to Sonic, and behind him was a plethora of blankets and furs piled in the corner. Forming a makeshift bed and in the other corner was a little pond.Shadow winced, Sonic had been alone for years and years. How had he not gone insane? Especially as extroverted as Sonic was, he was most known for his wayward mouth and smooth talk. Poor thing.“ Are you tired?” asked Sonic quietly, and just as Shadow was going to say no a huge yawn escaped his muzzle. Sonic chuckled “I'm going to take that as a yes?”Shadow wanted to protest, but he couldn’t help it, warily walking to the pile of furs and collapsing on it. Sonic’s scent wrapped him in a comforting blanket, relaxing his confused nerves, letting him close his eyes. The last image he saw was Sonic settling on the ground next to him.-He awoke as he whispered a name, “Sonic” he mumbled. He shivered helplessly, what he would give to be home in his million blankets on his plush bed. Not that the pile wasn’t comfortable but Shadow slept with 4 or 5 thick blankets every night.Instantly a brush of semi-soft fur and warmth covered him, and he grunted contently. Shoving his face in a broad chest. “Shadow… what are you doing?” he heard Sonic’s voice ask nervously. He could hear his breath quicken, Sonic almost seemed pained.“It’s f@ck@ng cold” he answered, pressing himself impossibly closer to Sonic, his scent once again filling his mind. The familiar grassy-citrus smell coated his mouth on each inhale, and oh Chaos- how he missed the blue pest.He would never admit it aloud but Shadow had always been infatuated with the stupid hero. The way Sonic took a challenge and never backed down, how he sought to help those in need. His slim athletic frame, and that d@mn perky tail that waved in greeting every time they met.Although Shadow would never do the same it didn’t matter, he was the Ultimate Lifeform for f@cks sake.-'
