## History of Shade The Echidna (Mobius-777)

### Past

Shade was raised in Nocturne, she was trained by her father, who loved her very much. Shade just wanted to join the Nocturnus Clan, not get smothered with love and affection via her family. Eventually, she got into a Nocturnus Military School. There she learnt how to use weapons, and even furthered her martial arts skills. Shade really loved the school, she even got her homework done before it was even drafted. The generals really loved her commitment to the Nocturnus Military, she even caught the eye of Imperator Ix, who would keep a close eye of her.

During classes, a male echidna grew interested in Shade, a bit too interested. For years, the male echidna become close friends with Shade, she bonded with him at the time. They would share secrets after school, and during teachings. One day, when Shade walking home, she was approached by her friend. He begin to make moves on her. Shade, instinctively knew something was up. The male echidna told Shade that he loved her. Shade didn't respond, and ignored him, she didn't know how to react in that very moment. Until, he forced her against the wall and leaned in for a kiss. Shade pushed him away, and telling him she wasn't interested in romance, but it fell on death ears. The male echidna tried to touch her in places she didn't like, but when enough was enough, she punched him in the gut and pushed him aside like a doll.

Her mother was waiting for her at the door, Shade ran into her arms and told her everything. She distanced herself away from the concept of "Love" for the majority of her life. The next day, the male echidna tried to frame Shade for cheating during every test. The teachers did find it kinda odd that she knew most of the answers to the theory side. Before she could be kicked out by the principle, Imperator Ix just happened to be in the hallway going to a meeting at the school. Imperator Ix busted through the door and demanded that they prove that she cheated, and it wasn't just a fabrication. The principle couldn't prove it. Shade was confused about the whole ordeal.

Imperator Ix asked Shade if anyone could have caused this, and Shade replied with a male echidna. Imperator Ix would hunt this echidna down and brought him to the principle. There, the male echidna was demoted from all ranks and positions, he was left to find another place in life. Imperator Ix ranked up Shade as his personal body guard, and there she would train underneath Imperator Ix. Shade would join the Marauder forces soon after.

### Meeting Chronos The Hedgehog

One day, two hedgehogs landed in the middle of Nocturne, Shade was doing her studies, until she saw them and confronted them. She told them that hedgehogs are not welcome here. Chronos and Shade fought through the city. It ends when Shade is sent through a house, holding a Echidna family. Chronos checks up on the family, who seems very scared of what just happened. He stops the fight and convinces Shade to stop this. Shade introduces herself to Chronos and they seem to get along very well, they even shake hands. Gaea returns and sees the damage. She questions the two, and is surprised to hear that her son was almost killed by this Echidna. Gaea turns her eyes to Shade and gives her a very serve glare that creeps Shade out. Gaea tells Chronos and Shade that the battle will begin in a few days.

Shade prepares for the upcoming battle in the next few day. When the day comes, Shade gets into her position among the many Nocturnus clan soldiers. They are called by Imperator Ix, the army line up and await their foes. The Knuckles tribe appear over the hill, and they charge down the hill. The Knuckles tribe line up just like the Nocturnus Clan have. Imperator Ix and Pachacamac go back and forth, before Ix throws a slur at Pachacamac, which causes the battle to begin. Shade lights her blades and cuts down multiple echidnas. She gets pushed down, but she always gets back up. She watches as her new friend is being stepped on by Pachacamac. She thinks about saving him, until Gaea comes in and kicks the echidna. Shade's shoulder intensify as she sees how powerful Gaea is.

Shade continues to fight the Knuckles Tribe, and smiles as she defeats her foes one by one, their spears falling to the ground. She quotes how annoying the echidnas are, all they want to do is run forward anf smash something. Suddenly, Uranus appears, and attacks Gaea. Shade is taken by surprise as another Hedgehog appears. She watches as the mad hedgehog runs through the echidnas like a knife through butter. The battle continues as Shade is surrounded by these mindless echidnas. Chronos comes flying in and slams into the two echidnas, inducing Shade.

Shade questions Chronos on who that dark blue hedgehog is. He gets up and tells her that he is his father, and he's completely evil. Shade and Chronos talk for a bit, until he rushes in to save her mother. Shade smiles and continues to fight, but the Knuckles tribe is fleeing. Shade yells at them, calling them mindless cowards. She walks over to Chronos and lifts him up. Imperator Ix demands that Uranus surrender himself. He refuses while teleporting away to a nearby hill and begins to chant a evil word, 'Aɾɠυʂ!'. The sky goes dark and the wind changes direction. The wind begins to circle above the clouds. Gaea and Shade have bad feeling, Gaea grabs Chronos' arm and drags him away from Shade. Chronos yells her name out and lets his arm out for her. Shade looks at him, but then she turns away with a tear going down her cheek. She apologises to him for the rough meeting. A wormhole appears, and tentacles drift out of the portal. She watches on in fear as the massive tentacles tears circle around the Nocturne. The ground beneath begins to rumbles and crumbles around then. They're slowly sucked into the Twilight Zone.

### Sonic Chronicles : The Dark Brotherhood

Shade assisted in the capture of the final Chaos Emerald and took Knuckles the Echidna prisoner while doing so, nearly able to overwhelm him on her own. She makes her first appearance in the Blue Ridge Zone, revealing herself and the Marauders as echidnas of the Nocturnus Clan. Upon being defeated in combat, she tried to stop Sonic and friends from entering Metropolis by causing an avalanche. After she believes to have fulfilled her duty of stopping Sonic, she goes to Angel Island and meets up with Imperator Ix, unaware that the team made use of an alternate route constructed by Dr. Eggman. While on the island, Sonic and Knuckles confront her and Ix, and Ix reveals his plan and true intentions to the heroes. After she discovers Ix's plan to conquer Mobius, Ix attempts to kill Shade, who is saved by Knuckles.

Shade then becomes Sonic's ally for the rest of the journey. She joins with Sonic and friends only because she wanted to bring the Nocturnus Clan back to Mobius not to take over it as well. She also says that she's impressed by the courage and strength of Sonic and Knuckles, and that she's hard to impress. This reminds her of Chronos all those years ago, she wonders if he might still be alive. Soon, Shade forms a team with Knuckles on the Nocturne in an attempt to return the Nocturnus Clan to Mobius, but fail when they are drawn into battle by Imperator Ix. After Super Ix is defeated at the hands of Super Sonic, she flees in the Cyclone with Sonic and his friends, making her the only Nocturnus Clan echidna to permanently escape the Twilight Cage into Mobius.
