    Summary

    In another universe, Shadow was created by alchemists who dwelled among the stars. He now spends his days as a hunter, travelling the world to safeguard it from threats, whether they be human or monstrous. But when the hunters' guild asks him to investigate a case of suspected vampirism in a desolate, rain-soaked town, he is left with more questions than answers. Rumour has it that a vampire dwells in the castle above the town, and so begins a decadent, dangerous dance between a battle-scarred hunter and an alluring femme fatale, both of whom are willing to use any means necessary to survive this star-crossed encounter.

    Summary

    Shadow the Hedgehog has arrived to the gangs home on the run from G.U.N, but rather then having a infamous, neck-and-neck rivalry with the blue blur, the Ultimate lifeform seeks Eggman for a favor. But why?

    As the Black Comet slowly approaches Earth/Mobius, ready to cash in on a bargain made nearly 50 years ago, it is up to the rag tag Team Sonic and friends to stop a deadly alien invasion.

    AU version and canon divergence, obviously. Expect sibling shenanigans and tomfoolery. Also, Maria is alive in this fanfic because Shadow deserves happiness dang it!

    Enjoy!

    Summary

    His purpose was to murder. To kill. To destroy all organic life. He knew how to peel apart muscles from flesh and brain matter from thin craniums by fingers alone. He was the Vanguard – the Ultimate Lifeform – for the Black Arms-
    “Shadow! Have you finished plucking the chicken yet? Grandpa wants to eat it for dinner.”
    He handed over the empty husk of life.
    Her eyes narrowed at the sight; tongue flashed out of her mouth in jest. “Eww.”
    Red eyes watched her move towards the kitchen, the blood of the poultry dripping on the floor. Good. She had accepted his token. The two homosapiens required nourishment if he was to take them back home with him. It was only fair – they sheltered him from his pupa state. He will spare them. It was how things… worked.

    ----------

    50 years ago, in a field in Oklahoma, a farmer kept a meteorite.

    ----------

    A mostly wholesome story of a world destroying entity learning about emotions and life from his two humans. The Vanguard - this being called 'Shadow' - struggles to understand: what are hugs? What is individuality? What is... love?

    But what could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    He has felt... weird... this past month, for a lack of a better word.
    He's hungrier, he felt lethargic, more tired and a strange heaviness in his abdomen.
    He and Rouge chalked it up to his body adapting for the cold of winter, yes that must be it.

    ... He was so very... wrong...

    Summary

    Соник мог весь день издавать всевозможные звуки, пока Шэдоу был занят своими скучными делами и не получить ни единого замечания. Они и разговаривали редко; чаще всего Шэдоу хмыкал или закатывал глаза, но Соник всегда знал, что он слушал в такие моменты. Смотрел прямо на него, иногда даже отвечал, негромким голосом с едва заметной хрипотцой. Соник правда ценил такие моменты.

    Shadow the hedgehog hasn't slept in a very long time. He has been haunted by memories he can't fully recall and he is burdened by a purpose he no longer understands. He started having dreams again and that's the problem.
    The quiet is beginning to crack. Nightmares are beginning to bleed into reality and something is watching from the dark.
    In the silence of darkness, Shadow is unraveling— and even the unbreakable can come undone.

    Summary

    Shadow may have put his past behind him, but his past is also G.U.N.’s history ... and those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

    Shadow was created to be a cure and forced to be a weapon, but now he has to forge a new path beneath the shadow of Space Colony Ark and the spectre of White Space. Meanwhile, G.U.N. is suffering a dire public image crisis, and their actions force Shadow to reckon with his past and Maria’s legacy once again.

    Can Shadow find a new way to fight for humanity in spite of G.U.N.'s machinations, or was he destined to be a weapon all along?

    Summary

    The things Gerald cared about were hiding something. The Ultimate Lifeform was a quiet and pensive one [that drove Gerald into corners of his own mind that delighted and terrified him]. In the light, Maria was happy with a positive outlook on life [but in the dark, her eyes knew of a hushed secret]. It was not those, though, but the other things that made all feel... 'off': how Maria went mute when G.U.N. did their standard quarterly wellness checks; how his Project felt more a coiled weapon than a sentient being at those times; how Maria spoke of stuff not exposed to yet; how Shadow was lying to everyone - including himself. But... why?

    ---Arc 5---

    The end comes to everyone at some point. Mobians. Humans. G.U.N.. The ARK itself. But, it already had, right?
    What mattered when time itself was lost?
    When given a second chance?

    Gerald would fight on to the bitterness that lied. To the victory in his grasp.
    He will drag Maria behind him, even if she doesn't understand what must be done.
    He will prevent Shadow from falling further into delusion.
    He will stop others from interfering with his drive - his need - for his children's future.
    He will continue.

    Summary

    “Not so cocky now, eh, rodent?” Shadow felt that Dr. Deep would have been slightly more intimidating if he wasn’t bent over and speaking between wheezes.

    Shadow snarled as he fought against the iron grip of the mechanical hand. Nothing happened. Going still, he settled on leveling a scathing glare at Dr. Deep.

    “Okay, get on with it. Cut off my head or whatever you’re planning to do.”

    The baby shook him like a rattle. Humiliating, but he managed to maintain his glower through it.

    Dr. Deep smiled maliciously and stroked his chin. “Not so fast. We have some plans for you first.”
