    Summary

    In the aftermath of crashing back down to earth for a second time, Shadow has a horrible realization: he doesn't even know the blue hedgehog’s name. It's over two months later when they reunite that he finally gets the chance to learn it (among other things).

    ----

    Post Sonic 3 story based around the fact that, I kid you not, not a single person ever tells Shadow what Sonic’s name is that entire movie. Not one. Dude was just fighting him having no clue who he was. Now with a part two from Sonic's POV!

    Summary

    Desperation fills his being as the sounds get louder, indicating that GUN is drawing closer. He can pick out human voices, detached and monotonous commands, ordering a thorough search of the area. He needs to leave now.

    So Shadow reaches within himself, reaching for the remnants of his energy, trying to find somewhere, anywhere, to go. He tries to think of some place safe, something he knows.

    A vivid image pops into his mind. One with deep blue quills, green eyes and the most hopeful smile he has seen in a long time. Shadow reaches for it, for him, and allows himself to be pulled away. The air crackles around him, and he can feel the world twisting, turning, and the greenery disappears with a snap.

    Sonic, he thinks, and moves across the world, tethered by the only thing he still knows.

    Sonic.

    Having survived the explosion of the Eclipse Cannon, Shadow struggles to find his place in the world. But as determined as Sonic is to help him, GUN seems equally determined to take it all away...

    Summary

    And after he is out of breath, after his body aches for real, enough that he can focus on that pain rather than the one in his heart, Sonic goes to visit Shadow.

    Well, it’s not really Shadow. It’s more like his grave. A grave that only Sonic knows about, because he made it and didn’t tell anyone. A grave that only he visits, once the world is quiet and everyone is asleep. He fashions it out of a decently sized rock that he finds in the woods, and painstakingly carves the words “Shadow the Hedgehog,” onto it. There’s a picture frame leaning against the stone, the only picture he could ever find of Shadow, with his arm around Maria and a smile on his face.

    Sonic thinks that the picture is more Shadow than Shadow himself was, at least until the other hedgehog agreed to team up with him. That’s when Sonic saw the real Shadow; the lost, lonely soul who’d had everything taken from him, and still overcame his pain to sacrifice himself for the world. It’s only fair that someone should remember that, remember him.

    Sonic grieves Shadow.

    Summary

    The being currently known as the Doorman steps through a previously nonexistent door and behind the hotel lobby's front desk, and tilts his head at the sight.

    Mortals, guest and employee alike, lie scattered all over the room. All of them in deep slumber, lost in the land of sleep. Above the desk and on the floor and across various furniture—a bellboy even managed to lean himself against the hotel's front doors, propped up against the handles with his hat askew.

    A scene straight out of a fairy tale. Or a horror movie.

    Summary

    She turns to the hotel staff who helped them with their bags—a young red-headed man with blue eyes and freckles dotting his cheeks. Beautiful in the way men rarely wished to be. He smiles placidly.

    "Is there anything else I can do for you while I'm here?"

    "No. You are—" she inhales, attention sharpening as she realizes the man had just asked her a question in flawless Japanese. She thumbs at the hilt of her sword, mind racing to figure out which of their enemies has enough influence and motive to send someone after them across the ocean. Outwardly, she holds her face in the same stern countenance she always wears. "You speak Japanese?"
