Shadow know's his purpose, his kind– and it was not the hero type.
So if had to bleed a little, hurt a little, sacrifice a little... then at least let it be for naught.–
Or, Shadow makes a secret deal with G.U.N– sacrificing his freedom in exchange for the safety of the Wachowskis and the rest of Green Hills. To absolutely nobody's surprise, the Wachowskis are NOT on board with this.

Summary
She said one day the lyrics would come back to her, how they were just on the tip of her tongue, familiar, yet so far away. He wondered what words could go with the chords she strummed and the rhythm she played them at.
The notes repeat on an upwards scale, then fall down. Up. . . up. . . up. . . down, down, down, down, down. Up. . . up. . . up. . . down, down, down, down, down.
All of a sudden, a strange feeling came over Shadow.

Summary
His eyes trace the lines they run through the flowers, sprinting in curving S shapes and ending whenever one of them touches a tree on the boundary of the meadow. They race back and forth like this. The condition of victory is exhaustion or concession.
Shadow watches from his chosen vantage point. The sky is clear and the weather sunny. Perfect for observing the hedgehogs below.

Summary
When Sonic falls to a weapon capable of harming even the ultimate lifeform, the universe seems to split in silence. Shadow watches his death unfold like something that was never meant to happen, an echo that follows him for… far too long. Long enough to wear down even what shouldn’t break.
And in that stretched-out emptiness, a desire takes shape. A wish never spoken aloud, yet somehow heard.
Suddenly, Shadow wakes up in a past that shouldn’t exist. A past where nothing has happened yet. A past where something might still be saved.
Or maybe it’s just a late reflection of everything he lost.
No one knows if this is a miracle, a temporal glitch, an inevitable collapse… or simply the last dream of someone who refused to accept his own grief.
All Shadow knows is this: this time, he won’t let the story repeat. -

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.
