In a place upon the sky, there was a space colony called ARK which 50 years ago had an accident and two of the ones who were there was a black hedgehog called Shadow and a blond haired girl called Maria. When they were going to escape to the capsule, an agent shoot Maria in her stomach

Shadow: Maria!

Maria: Ow... it hurts...

Shadow: Come on! We are almost there!

Maria:(weak voice) I can't move... please Shadow... help me...

Shadow: Don't worry, I got you

And the two of them arrived to the capsules...

Shadow: Come on! Get in Maria!

Maria: Are you sure about this?

Shadow: I'm just protecting you

And then they heard footsteps of the agents coming for them...

Maria: They... they find us...

Shadow: We need to get out of here now!

Maria: No... you need to get out...

Shadow: What?!

And Maria pushed Shadow to the capsule...

Shadow: Maria! No! What are you doing?!

Maria: Shadow, you have to do this for me and all the people who live in that planet, give them a chance to be happy; and also try to be happy too when you find friends and someone who can love you

Shadow: Maria! NO!

And the agents appeared and they were going to shoot Maria at her chest

Shadow: No! Maria!

Maria: Sayonara... Shadow the hedgehog

Shadow: NO!

And the capsule get shooted to the Earth and also the agents shoot Maria in her chest causing her to die...
Now in the present time, Shadow is now a G.U.N agent and an alley of the hero Sonic the hedgehog, even if they used to be rivals before, but Shadow has become a little arrogant and emo since what happened in the ARK. One day, he and Sonic were walking and talking while they were visiting a place called Pensilvania

Sonic: So Shadow, how you been feeling now?

Shadow: Fine Sonic... but I'm still feeling lonelly after... you know what

Sonic: Hey! We should explore this city, that will cheer you up

Shadow: I just hope for it...

And the two hedgehogs started to explore Pensilvania and they were enjoying the places they saw on their way. That was untill something happened...

Sonic: Wow! Look at that school!

Shadow: Yeah... is great...

Sonic: And look! The students are coming out!

They saw how all of the students from different grades were heading home because of the winter break, and then the secondary students come out and they were screaming and shouting about their winter vacations with no homework to do

Shadow: They really scream too loud

Sonic: We are also just like them Shad, except they may be 2 years younger than us

Shadow: Tell me about it...

Sonic: Wait a minute... look Shadow! Those guys have guns, I think they are robbers!

Shadow: Robbers?!

Sonic: Yes, and I think they are about to steal to those three girls

And they saw the thieves were about to get the three girls. One had brown hair and was wearing a pink outfit and a pink headband

The other had orange hair and was wearing a pink t-shirt with a yellow shirt and glasses

And the other one had black hair and she was wearing a black dress with spiderweb prints, but she also has something else... she had sharp fangs, her ponytails were bat wings and she had blue skin. That was because she was a vampire girl

The three girls were walking very happy untill one of the thieves got the vampire girl and it was covering her mouth...

???(1): Mhhh mhhh! (Let me go!)

???(2): Vampirina!

???(3): Someone call the police!

Thief: Don't move! Or we will shoot you!

???(2 &3): AHH!

Vampirina: Mhhh! (Help!!!)

For good, Sonic and Shadow were spying at them and they were hiding so they can't see them, untill Shadow remembered something...

Flashback 50 years ago, in the ARK's accident...

An agent shoot Maria at her stomach...

Shadow: Maria!

Maria: Please Shadow... help me..

End of flasback...

And by that, Shadow went to stop those thieves and save that inoccent girl...

Sonic: Shadow! Wait!

Thief 1: If you wanna have your friend free, gave us all the things and money you have

Thief 2: Otherwise your friend will die

???: Poppy, what do we do?

Poppy: I don't know Bridget, I guess we have no choice...

Shadow: Hey! You stealers!

All thieves: What?!

Bridget: Huh? Who is he?

Shadow: You all, as an agent from G.U.N, you are all arrested from robbing to this girls. Now... let that girl go!

Thief 1: Never!

Poppy: Hey you! Do something!

Shadow: Sonic! I need your help!

Sonic: Coming right up!

And Sonic used his Spin Dash to hit the thieves onthe ground and also released the girl who was covered by the mouth

Shadow: Are you alright?

Vampirina: Yes... I'm fine...

Poppy: Oh my! Thank you, you two! You saved our lives!

Sonic: It was no problem

Shadow: I will call the police of this city to tell them about the rob

Bridget: Okay, and please call our parents so they can come, we were too scared about what happened

Sonic: I will call them, do you girls have any cell phones?

Poppy: No, but we know their numbers

Sonic: Okay, tell me the numbers and I will call them

Meanwhile, Shadow was checking on the vampire girl to see if she was hurt or something, bit he saw that she was stessed out after what happened. Then Shadow unexpectelly give the girl a massage at her shoulders to make her feel more comfortable...

Shadow: How do you feel now?

Vampirina: Fine now... thanks for that

Shadow: It's just my job

Vampirina: Can you... tell me your name?

Shadow: I'm... Shadow... Shadow the hedgehog, and the blue hedgehog is Sonic

Vampirina: Well... it was a pleasure to meet you Shadow, and thanks for saving my life

Shadow: You're welcome

Vampirina: Oh! And by the way, I'm Vampirina (streching her hand)

Shadow: Is nice meeting you (he and Vampirina do a handshake)

Vampirina: Maybe Shadow... we can be friends if you want...

Shadow: Friends?

Vampirina: I know is to soon, but is that... since you saved my life, I will want a bodyguard in my side

Shadow: Me? As your bodyguard?

Vampirina: Sorry... too soon, right?

Shadow: No... is that... I think I can have a friend like you on my side

Vampirina: Really, do you say so?

Shadow: Yes... besides, I wouldn't like that something happens to innocent persons like you or your friends

Vampirina: Okay, thank you Shadow

Shadow: Anything for a friend that I have now

Sonic: Wow Shadow! You really have found yourself a good friend now

Shadow: Is that she kind of reminds me of... Maria

Sonic: Well... I'm sure you two will be good friends...

Shadow:(to himself) I think... she is kind of cute... I think I want her more than a friend

Sonic: Is something wrong Shad?

Shadow: Nothing... do you know their parents are coming?

Sonic: Now that you mention it... they are already here! And the police is with them too!

Officer: We received the call, where are the thieves?

Sonic: Over there

Officer: Okay, and thanks for calling

The group of thieves were arrested and the girls went back to their houses, but Vampirina decided to invite Sonic and Shadow to her house since she was now friends with them, but... will they know her secret?
