Chapter 5: Shadowed Nightmares

He panted as they ran into the scientific lab, footsteps clanging off the metal flooring thanks to the anti-gravity boots that were keeping them stuck to the flooring of the walkway. He glanced over to the blue hedgehog beside him, who currently sported a serious face for once on his usually relaxed features. Stress and worry lines were cast upon his face, his emerald eyes focused on their destination.

He could feel his tongue sticking to the top of his mouth after running over-near enough the whole of the station at near Sonic speed, the other having forced him to go to his maximum for far longer than his body could tolerate. Even now, he could feel the tendons and muscle in his legs tearing, knowing that any minute that he would be in agony.

Looking back over his shoulder, blue eyes widened and ears laid against his head as a soldier ran into the room, skidding-with no gravity to hold him to the floor-and going over the side of the walkway to the Alter below where the 7 Chaos Emeralds were currently situated to power the station. He felt sorrowful for the fallen soul, as the monster below let out a defining roar at the intruder in its lair before the screams began.

His eyes became unfocused as he tried not to listen to the chilling sounds. Yes the monster may have been gentle and playful with the occupants of the station, but it was viscous to anyone/anything else.

Angerhurtworry-intruderhateattackdestroy-defendkillattack-notsamescentdifferentworry-wherewherewherewherewherewhere…He winced, the creature’s emotions battering into his mind; after all, he had a mental link with it-as did the anthros’-but his was special. He was able to communicate directly to it, calming it when needed and helping when necessary. But now, as a flash of anger ran through him, he decided something that would shape the future indefinitely.

As he felt the prodding of the creature in its attempts to find him, he then flung all his emotions down the bond, everything from his hatred of the invaders to the terrified feeling of being chased, the pain of being shot and his legs that were failing. In reaction, a blood-curdling roar shook the station just as the gravity slammed back on, showing that the invaders had succeeded in gaining control of the mainframe.

They ran through another door in the back of the lab into the escape capsule room for experiments to be transported in glass pods that would be undetectable to any technology. Behind them, the door hissed shut, sealing the outside from the room. The blue hedgehog finally stopped, allowing him to slump to the floor as he rubbed his legs, blood running from tears all over the skin.

Hissing he focused his energy and healed the damaged cells, glad for once that, being immortal, he would not grow old faster with the usage of his own life energy sped up to heal his wounds. Slowly, the green energy faded and he looked up, ears twitching as he heard murmured voices over by the pods. Pushing himself to his feet, he moved over to the hedgehog and the scientist who were both talking in soft tones.

Looking between the two, he then cleared his throat and was rewarded with startled looks, clearly indicating that they had forgotten his presence already.

“You called ……” The man nodded as he turned towards the blue eyed hybrid.

“Yes. Both of you give me a report of what has been happening in the second half of the Ark: G.U.N. have knocked out the camera system of sectors 23 to 46.” The hybrid’s eyes widened as he realised whose room was in that section.

“Did .…… get out ok? She wasn’t still in the…” The man shook his head, goggles reflecting the dim light of the room.

“Shadow got her out before the cameras failed.” He breathed a sigh of relief, as did the blue hedgehog, who had been tense when the question had been asked. The hybrid settled back on his heals as he began to list what had happened in their flight: from the training room all the way to the level 1 labs and the rest of the way to this room. His voice was hoarse by the time he had finished, but the report was done and he felt a weight off his shoulders; now his job was done for the moment.

Shoulders slightly sank, a sigh escaping him, the scientist, with a hand upon his chin, began to murmur to himself. Looking around, he spotted his anthro friend by the console, and began to walk over, getting as far as the round plates upon the floor-that were used to seal pods together-when a cold chill ran up his spine, hair standing on end.

Getoutgetout-trapruntrapgo-betrayerbetrayerbetrayerbetrayer… The creature’s mental voice screamed in his mind; groaning, he brought a shaking hand up to his head to clutch his aching temples, when a sudden force dazed him monumentally and sent him flying into the middle of one of the plates on the floor. Snarling incoherently at the sudden pain and dizziness from his crash landing, he slowly moved to get up when a sound made him stop and look upwards.

His eyes widened when the glass began to descend; he tried to dart out from the tube, but the dizziness remained and he could only stagger a few steps as he looked helplessly as the glass then whooshed down at an incredible rate and clicked shut sealing him inside.

Glancing round in a growing panic, he began to bang on the glass shouting to the hedgehog to watch out, but the other-for once-was too slow. The scientist used a metal pole to whack the other cleanly over the head, making sure not to knock him unconscious, and threw the other to the metal plate beside his.

Though as he looked for a second longer, he realised that the pods were in fact connected, with part of one in the other. Looking upwards, he saw a part of the glass slide down and fix itself in place around the blue hedgehog. The hybrid watched as the glass on his side slid open much like the way it was in the other pod and moved over to the other, allowing him, for once, to take him into his arms so they both had comfort for each other.

They glanced outside at the man who was watching them; his emotions over flowing, the hybrid addressed the scientist with tears that had never before fell but were gathering in his eyes.

“Why do this? Please let us out!” The man shook his head as he sighed.

“I cannot do that, you both must be kept safe from the government and G.U.N. equally, I will not allow them to get a hold of years of research and turn it into weapons of mass destruction.” Blue eyes were wide with disbelief as he pushed back into the blue hedgehog, who slid his arms from chest to his stomach, holding the other tightly as he glared at the scientist.

“I don’t understand what it has to do with us being in this pod doc. We’d be of better use out there where we could kick some G.U.N. ass.” But the man shook his head as he removed his goggles and looked upon the two with weary red eyes that were dull with not only time, but also pain at what he had to do.

“I wish for that …… but I cannot risk it, I spent years on creating all three of you for specific purposes and if you are taken by them, I know none of you will succeed in your missions.” He felt his ears layback as blue eyes looked up into that weary face and knew the other would not change his mind.

“Doctor…” he muttered that under his breath as his spirits sunk.

“What about Shad’s?! He’s still somewhere on the Ark! You need me to bring him here…” The man held up a hand to quiet the ranting of the hedgehog.

“All is in hand; Maria is going to do it for me, as well as send you both off down to the planet below. I wish it did not have to be this way but I have no other options, they have taken everything from me in the past and I can’t allow it to happen again. You’re all my children and I will not let the government get a hold of any of you.” The man then sighed as he looked at the huddled younglings.

“I will keep you safe, and if that means sending you away, then so be it. Good bye both of you.” With that, the man, Doctor Gerald Robotnik, strode away towards a hidden door to a different lab altogether; not wanting the solders to find his creations just yet. Ignoring the calls of his younglings, he stepped through the door and was gone, unknowingly leaving the last memories of his living experiments, where he turned his back on them in their time of need and left them to suffer worse than he could have ever predicted.

The hybrid huddled with the blue hedgehog, taking comfort in the other as he stared at the place the man had left. The only father figure he had, had left them to now survive on a planet they really knew nothing about, and both shivered thinking about the trials they would go through on the planetary surface.

Standing up, he began to try and figure a way out, the other seeing what he was doing also began to search, not wanting to leave in the time of crisis. His thoughts at planning escape, however, were abruptly halted as blinding pain shot through his head. He screamed, his hands shooting to the base of his skull, and, the device that was now embedded into the flesh. The other raced over and, forcing his friend’s convulsing body to still, looked at the new feature.

Hissing at the apparent look of the thing and the wound it made, he reached out and tried to remove it, but had to stop as the other screeched and flailed; snarls, whimpers and keening was sent into the air from the hybrid’s throat.

His eyes were open as he pressed his hands against the glass; pupils were glazed as a fog began to overtake his thoughts slowly, covering his memories of his time at the Ark. For some reason, he could not muster up the panic he should feel as his eyes drifted over to the doors and saw them open, the blond girl and Shadow rushing in, not noticing the two of them in the far side of the room.

The blue hedgehog slipped his arm around his neck and helped him stand, a tight grip around his middle as they both watched the happenings. The blond girl placed a hand upon Shadow’s arm to get him to let go, then when free moved over to the console that was facing the windows overlooking the planet below.

That was when he felt panic: as her hand reached for a button that would seal another pod, he realised where Shadow was standing. Hell, he may have been mad with the cocky anthro but not even he deserved this.

“SHADOW, MOVE NOW!” Said anthro looked startled over at the hybrid’s voice and his eyes widened at the sight of them trapped. But before he could move, the pod had slid shut with a hiss, trapping the black and red hedgehog inside.

“Maria what?” Shadow’s voice was disbelieving as he pressed gloved hands against the glass, wanting to go to her and demand answers like he had in the past.

“It’s safer this way. You can help the people and the government won’t get a hold of you.” All blinked disbelievingly at the girl as she moved towards the lever for the first set of pods. Shaking his head, the hybrid began banging on the glass as her hand rested upon the red handle. She looked over at them and gave a smile, making chills go down his back as the he stopped momentarily, his memories clouding even more.

But what happened next would haunt him for years to come, even when he could not remember names, faces or even the reason why they made him scream and cry out for the person that smiled so sadly at him.

The far door opened, the lock on the other side smoking from the gunshots’ used to access the room. The soldier-a young fellow-taking no notice of the other inhabitants, levelled his gun upon the girl, who had turned to grip the leaver with both hands.

“Take your hands away from the lever girl.” She gave a stubborn frown that she was known for and all felt a chill run down their spine, as though something was going to happen that would scar them all.

“Step away girl, I don’t want to have to do this.” She gritted her teeth as she still didn’t move and the soldier, beginning to sweat slightly, pulled the safety off his gun.

“I won’t warn you again, step away from the lever or pay the consequences!” But she did not listen, with a cry of glee(a cry of glee?? Why a cry a glee? Just wondering, lol) she forced the lever down and the flooring beneath the two capsules began to open. But in that short time they opened, a gunshot was heard.

Everything slowed down and they all saw blood blossom from her chest, the soldier had a horrified look upon his face as his gun slipped from his hands. Shadow roared in anger and terror, the blue hedgehog gave a squeak as he near enough crushed the hybrid’s body against his own, but said hybrid’s own reaction was more severe and tore through all hearts, leaving the soldier in guilt, Shadow in hatred, the blue hedgehog in pain, and his own self in grief.

“MARIA!!!!” It was a scream as the capsules ejected, his last view of her falling from the panel as blood spread across the floor.

He was still, all emotions tearing themselves to pieces, tears tracked their way silently down his face; so great was his grief. Turning, he looked up into the green eyes of the other, who also was crying silently, and they curled together, taking comfort from the only one of their family left in immediate reach. But fate was not finished in tearing them all apart.

Suddenly, both hedgehog and hybrid were torn from each other by bands of rubber. They held on to each other’s hands for as long as possible, but it became too much, and, with a scream from both parties, they were flung into their respective pods; the glass that once lifted in order for one to get to the other now whole in both pods. The hybrid scrambled to the glass and looked out at the hedgehog, who, after getting up to his own feet, gave the Halfling his classic smirk and thumbs up, cheering the hybrid slightly at seeing the other still being himself.

Then the pod began to spark; sapphire-blue eyes went wide as panicked emerald-green eyes looked to both sides of the pod in a frantic motion. Resigning to his fate the green eyed one locked eyes with blue and gave a sweet smile that only once had the hybrid seen before, when the other had nearly died in a training simulation. Then, with a flash of white light, the pod was gone and nothing was left except empty space.

Staggering backwards, the hybrid slid down to the floor and began to rock himself as his mind began to fracture and the cloudiness began to lock away his memories. In a final act of desperation, and hoping that the other might hear, he screamed as loud as he could before falling in unconsciousness, tears streaming down his face, each one tuning into a pearl of the purest white.

“SONIC!”

He grunted as he slipped back a few meters, arms held in a blocking manoeuvre. Gritting his teeth, he brought his arms swiftly into an attacking position: one in front of him and the height of his head while the other was down by his hips to catch any attacking moves that could damage him for a long time.

His sapphire eyes were fixed on the other’s body, calculating what moves the other would take as he shifted slightly in both directions. Finally, the right side tensed minutely and the other leaped at him, his one hand thrown foreword in a punch while the other hand drew back, feet shifting as once he got ready to trip the other’s attack up and use it to his advantage.

Chris reacted immediately, moving at the same speed and dodging around both attacks, instantly the other’s hand reached out to snag his arm, but the training had paid off and he swerved with his body out of the way and got his foot up into a kick that caught the other under the chin and sent him flying into the grove of trees around the shrine.

The cracking of branches and wood was heard before an almighty CRASH and BOOM shook the island. Chris squeaked in shock and horror as all the trees in the wide circle fell, the island shaking again from the impact of over 100 trees all falling from being uprooted and/or broken.

Feeling ashamed of himself, Chris dashed off to the hole in the forest and began moving down the new tunnel. He looked around in dismay at the damage that was done as he searched for the Echidna who was nowhere to be seen. Calling out for the other, he soon got a groan and tore towards the sound, eyes becoming even wider as he saw the other trapped under several trees.

“KNUCKLES!” He began to tear the trees off of his red friend, hoping against hope the other wasn’t hurt too badly. Finally able to slide the other out, he moved him onto his back and began making his way back to the Alter. Not noticing the trees moving back into place from where they had been toppled over, uprooted or broken-soon enough looking like nothing had been touched, as was the way of the forest of the island.

As he walked he never felt or heard the soft groan of the Echidna as said other awoke. Amethyst purple eyes blinking open, Knuckles lifted his head slightly to shake his quills and get rid of the dizziness that pounded through his skull; hissing under his breath, he took in his surroundings and the very interesting place he was held against since the other had never let him near his back after the incident where he had very nearly lost control.

Though seeing that bared neck, the hair braided to the side, it certainly took his mind off track. Eyes narrowing in a feral manner, he slowly pushed up and clamped his teeth into the back of the hybrid’s neck. His fangs sank in, drawing blood-which sent him up on a high and his instincts right out of control again. The body carrying his tensed as it came to an abrupt stop; a snarl lit the air as sharpened claws reached back and went to pry the teeth out of his throat.

Instantly a snarl came from the Echidna’s throat and the Chris’s body shivered in reaction, making Knuckles give a smirk, as he knew the other could not hold out that much longer from the urge to mate. A deeper growling caught his attention and the warning embedded into it and he felt a glow of satisfaction that he had driven the other this far down into his primal instincts, making it both harder and easier to subdue him all the more.

But he also knew the other was not ready yet, even though his scent said so and drove him wild, the way his body reacted was the real clue into the hybrid’s true mating schedule and he knew it was close. So close in fact that he could most of the time, feel himself having to stop his own body from taking the lad before the time was right.

So with an internal sigh he released the hybrid and boosted himself off his back onto the ground at the best distance he could get at this moment of time. At the same time as the other released his fangs from the pale white neck, blood running down to his chest and beyond, he swung round and missed decapitating the other with his claws, his anger shimmering beyond what he was used to.

Another growl escaped his throat in a threatening way, and the Echidna responded, the lower growl telling him to back off before he made the situation worse. Snarling in response, he ran off into a different part of the forest, needing some alone time before he submitted to the other like he had wanted to. Knuckles watched him go, his lips sliding back over his fangs, as Chris disappeared back into the grove on the other side of the Alter; he had looked around when he had landed on his feet to see where they were. Smiling slightly to himself, Knuckles moved up the steps to the Emerald and lay down upon his back, hands behind his head.

The other would return when ready and when he did they would talk.

End Chapter 5
