...this is fucked up

really fucked up", "writing": "Shadow was sprawled on his back atop their bed, his hands hooking under his knees and spreading them to expose his genitals.\n\nSonic sighed in frustration. It had been like this since he had retrieved Shadow from Scourge’s grip. He’d become so desperate for sex that he threw himself at Sonic at every opportunity.\n\n“Shadow, stop that. We’ve been over this.” Sonic asserted sternly, placing his hands on the outsides of Shadow’s thighs and closing his legs.\n\nShadow stared up at him with tearful, hurt eyes at his rejection. It made Sonic ache to see, but he stood firm. Sex might be what Shadow wanted, or thought he wanted, but it definitely wasn’t what he needed.\n\n“I promise, my pussy is still good. You can use it if you want. It’ll feel good for you.”\n\nShadow had been repeating that to Sonic over and over since his return from Moebius. He seemed to believe that Sonic was rejecting him because he didn’t want him, or thought he was dirty. That couldn’t have been farther from the truth.\n\nShadow was every bit as beautiful to him as the day they became lovers. Sonic loved him with every fiber of his being, and he desired him just the same as before. But he would not satisfy his own lusts if it compromised Shadow’s wellbeing, and his obsession with proving himself sexually viable to Sonic was proof enough of his instability.\n\nThat last sentence disturbed Sonic greatly. He said it as if Sonic’s pleasure was paramount, and it didn’t matter if it felt good for Shadow too. That was so wrong it made Sonic’s stomach turn.\n\nIt was further proof of what Scourge had made Shadow believe of himself, that he was a hole to be used, not a lover to be pleasured and cared for. It made Sonic boil with rage.\n\nScourge was going to pay for what he had inflicted on Shadow. He would pay dearly.\n\n***\n\n[i]“Wonder how many dicks we can fit in his pussy?”\n\n“We already got two in him. He’s probably loose as hell by now ‘cause he’s been fucked so much.”\n\n“No…no…”\n\n“Cram another one in there!”\n\n“It hurts! Stop, stop, it hurts so much!”\n\n“Damn, bitch, you suck cocks into your pussy like a fucking vacuum. How many do you think we can get in his ass?”[/i]\n\n***\nSonic hadn’t slept at Shadow’s side in the two weeks since his return. He kept waking up to Shadow sucking him off or jerking him. He hadn’t slept a full night without Shadow in his arms, their separation so aberrant and so hurtful.\n\nInstead, Omega stayed with him at night, and comforted him when he woke thrashing and crying from nightmares before Sonic ran in to take over.\n\nShadow seemed to find Omega’s presence the most relaxing. He didn’t make sexual advances towards the robot, he didn’t fear Omega as he did any other male that attempted to visit him, and while he welcomed Rouge’s presence he still jumped at ever creak and footfall when she was near. With Omega, he felt secure.\n\nWith Rouge, however, he felt comforted. He knew Rouge wouldn’t be able to protect him from Scourge like Omega could, but she was a dear companion of his and he wanted her nearby. Whenever Sonic left the house for groceries or medicine, Rouge was always on call to keep him company. Rouge, for all her usual standoffishness and selfishness, sacrificed a great deal of her time to be by Shadow’s side.\n\nHe liked her arms around him only second to Sonic’s arms.\n\nAfter she had seen Shadow for the first time when he came back, so small and scared of everything, she had needed to step out of the bedroom to find an isolated corner of the house and sob into her hands for her friend’s pain.\n\nOmega had bluntly demanded to accompany Sonic, once Shadow was stable enough to be left for a time, when he went back to Moebius to tear Scourge apart. Sonic had agreed, grateful for the assistance and thankful that Shadow had such good and loyal friends.\n\n***\n\n[i]“Sure nice of the King to let us use his slave like this.”\n\n“He’s giving as hell. Pass me that whip.”\n\n“Dunno which I like fucking the most; his mouth, his ass, or his pussy.”\n\n“I just like to see him bleed. I like to hear him scream.”\n\n“Aahh! Stop! Stop!”\n\n“And beg. The begging is good too.”\n\n“Wonder how much he’ll bleed and scream if I put a broken bottle up his cunt.”\n\n“He’s the Ultimate Lifeform, not like anything we do will kill ‘im.”\n\n“Please, please don’t. Please.”\n\n“I’m gonna grab a beer from the kitchen. After I chug it I’ll smash and it shove it in him.”\n\n“Please! Please, no…”[/i]\n\n***\n\n“Shadow, I am not going to have sex with you. Not while you’re like this.” Sonic said firmly to a sobbing Shadow, feeling awful for it.\n\n“Why? Why am I not good enough?”\n\n“That’s not it, Shadow. You are good enough, you’re more than good enough, you’re perfect. But you want this for the wrong reasons.”\n\n“I want to be with you. Why is that wrong?”\n\nSonic shook his head. “It isn’t wrong, but being with me isn’t what you’re asking for. You want me to fuck you, not make love to you.”\n\n“It’s all I’m good for, all I can do is let you fuck me. Please, just fuck me so you won’t leave me.” Shadow cried harder, reaching out and gripping Sonic’s fur desperately.\n\n“You are good for so much more, Shadow. I want you, but I want you for a lot more than sex. I want to come home to you after a run. I want to watch bad movies with you and hear you laugh at them. I want to fight by your side and save the world. I want to make you breakfast in bed. I want to make slow, sweet love to you and tell you how much I love you while we bask in the afterglow. I want you to carry our children and we’ll raise them together. I want to spend my life with you.”\n\nShadow gaped at him, as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing, as if the thought of Sonic wanting him for something other than fucking him was incomprehensible. Tears streamed from his eyes, but a smile flickered onto his face.\n\nThat smile gave Sonic so much hope. If Shadow could find joy in that vision of their future together, then they were one step closer to achieving it.\n\n***\n\n[i]“You’re such a goddamn shit stain, it’s a good thing you got a tight pussy. Can’t see any other reason Sonic would keep you around.”\n\n“Please, just let me go, Scourge. What do you want from me?”\n\n“I don’t want anything from you, shit stain. Nothin’ but your pussy. Sometimes your ass. Your mouth for variety.”\n\n“Please, I can’t take this anymore…”\n\n“I can’t take your yammering. Shut your mouth or I’ll break your jaw again. Nobody wants to hear you talk.”\n\n“Sonic will come for me.”\n\n“Still believe that, huh? Where the fuck is he, then? It’s been weeks. No pussy’s worth jumping dimensions for, even one as fuckable as this.”\n\n“Ahh!”\n\n“That’s the only sound I wanna hear you make, you waste of life.”[/i]\n\n***\n\nSonic had thought Shadow was getting better. He’d stopped coming onto Sonic, stopped begging for sex as if that was all that mattered to him. Sonic had thought they were moving forward.\n\nThen the suicide attempts started.\n\nShadow was extremely hard to kill. He knew that, and so his attempts to die were extravagant and brutal.\n\nThe first time, he broke the bathroom mirror and stripped away his skin, slicing muscles and severing veins. Sonic found him bleeding and twitching on the bathroom floor, his stomach cut open, his arms devoid of skin, and his wrists gushing blood.\n\nHe’d healed from the damage on the way to the hospital.\n\nThe second time, he hung himself. Sonic thought that perhaps he had actually been successful and his body forced him back to life, because he wasn’t breathing when he found him hanging from the ceiling fan, swaying slightly and completely still.\n\nHe’d gasped and choked his way back to life once the noose was removed. Sonic had believed him lost, believed he was holding his lover’s corpse and that he had failed to save his most precious person. He held Shadow and cried for hours when he came back to him.\n\nThe third and final time was the most frightening. Shadow immolated himself with gasoline taken from places unknown to Sonic and a match. The fire alarm blared loudly and Sonic immediately made for Shadow’s room to bring him to safety, only to find his lover was the very thing that was burning.\n\nHe’d thrust his hand into the flames to pull him out, then darted outside and threw himself into their peaceful little lake. He hadn’t thought to toss him in the bath, he only wanted to put the flames out, and logical thought didn’t enter his brain. It had worked, that’s what mattered.\n\nHe’d again believed he was holding his lover’s corpse. He was still and silent in Sonic’s arms even as his burned skin began to slowly heal. Eventually his eyes snapped open and he sucked in wheezy breaths.\n\nShadow saw where they were, in water, which Sonic so despised being in, even when it was as shallow as a small decorative lake. He saw Sonic’s burned arms from pulling him from the fire.\n\nThe suicide attempts stopped after that. Sonic had more than proven his love for Shadow by sticking his arms in flames and diving into his worst fear for him. Shadow resolved to endure his pain, for Sonic’s sake, who so clearly loved him and would be devastated if he died.\n\nIt gave Shadow the will to keep trying, and to heal.\n\n***\n\n[i]“You hear the slave threw himself out a window yesterday?”\n\n“Shit. I’ll miss his pussy. He was a good time.”\n\n“Nah, he lived. Then he tried smashing his head against the headboard. Then he threw himself against a standing mirror…”\n\n“He lived through all that? Fuck, we can do anything to him, can’t we? He really is the ultimate whatever.”\n\n“Ultimate pussy, maybe.”\n\n“Heh, yeah.”[/i]\n\n***\n\n“He said you came for me.”\n\n“Huh?” Sonic was too surprised by Shadow’s strange words to be more eloquent.\n\n“He said you came for me, but you didn’t want me back.” Shadow looked at him with pleading eyes, begging to be told it was a lie.\n\n“That’s a lie.” Sonic assured. “The first time I went to Moebius was the time I brought you back. It was months for you, but it was only a few days for us, and I went for you as soon as we realized Scourge had you.”\n\nShadow flinched at the sound of Scourge’s name, as if the syllables themselves burned him. Sonic regretted causing him even that slight pain.\n\nSonic pulled Shadow close. “Thank you for talking to me. We can’t make this better until you talk to me about what happened.”\n\n“I’ll…try. It hurts to think about it.”\n\nSonic kissed Shadow’s forehead tenderly. “I know it hurts. But let it out and it’ll hurt less, I promise.”\n\n“I’m scared you won’t want me if I tell you.”\n\nSonic pulled away and gripped Shadow by the shoulders, but kept his hold loose so as to not frighten Shadow, only give him a reassuring touch while looking straight into his eyes to impress the importance of his words.\n\n“Shadow, I love you. I love you more than anything. More than anyone. More than running. Nothing, nothing, you say to me will make that stop. You and me are forever, Shadow. Never doubt that.”\n\nShadow fell into his arms and sobbed for a long time, and for the first night since his torment, he slept without nightmares.\n\n***\n\n[i]“He doesn’t talk much anymore, does he?”\n\n“Doesn’t scream anymore either when I jam stuff into his pussy. I put stuff I found in the dumpster up there and he didn’t make a peep. There were some bent up soda cans that cut him bad. Plus some used condoms and tissues, some rotten food, some old batteries, crumpled paper, and even a dead rat. That’s probably what gave him that infection, in hindsight.”\n\n“Yeah, I remember that. Hey, wanna make a bet? First one that gets him to scream again takes the other’s guard shift for a week.”\n\n“You’re on. Lemme find my stun baton and try putting that in him.”\n\n“Pfft. You should stick more dead animals up there. That was fucking hilarious. I’m gonna go grab my knives, I wanna see if his eyes’ll grow back if I stab ‘em out.”[/i]\n\n***\n\nShadow told him some of the things that had been inflicted on him, just a fraction of the horror, and after he settled Shadow down into sleep, Sonic left the room and screamed into a pillow for the rest of the night until his voice was shot to hell.\n\nHe wouldn’t wait anymore. Tails had improved his dimensional travel device, having been hastily built before, and the time lag should be significantly reduced to just a few hours. Scourge needed to pay for what he’d done, and he would have to pay [i]now[/i].\n\nHe retrieved Omega from Shadow’s bedside and Rouge took his place. Omega gave a surprisingly gentle stroke to Shadow’s head before he left the room, and Sonic looked back as they walked away to see Rouge take Shadow’s hand and lovingly kiss his fingers.\n\nAgain, Sonic was grateful Shadow had such good friends.\n\nOmega had offered for Rouge to join them, but she had declined, stating that somebody needed to stay with Shadow, somebody he trusted. So, she stayed behind to keep him company while Sonic and Omega destroyed Scourge and his lackeys.\n\nAfter Shadow told him that his legion of guards had victimized him just as much as Scourge did, Sonic decided they needed to pay as well. Not a person in Scourge’s court would walk away unscathed.\n\nThey were transported into Scourge’s courtroom, apparently in the middle of some sort of meeting, because Scourge was on his throne and surrounded by guards and had been stopped mid speech when his enemies appeared in the middle of the crowd.\n\nHe took one look at them, at Sonic’s furious face and rapidly darkening fur and growing aura, and bolted.\n\nThe guards threw themselves at Sonic’s dark self and the furious robot. Even as his dark half, Sonic refused to take a life. He only incapacitated those that tried to fight him. He knew Shadow wouldn’t want Sonic to compromise his ideals for his lover’s sake.\n\nThat didn’t mean he stopped Omega. Bullets flew mercilessly into every prone body, conscious or not, from his machine guns. The courtroom was swiftly becoming a field of death instigated by a raging Omega.\n\n“ANNIHALATE EVERYTHING THAT HARMED SHADOW. ANNIHALATE. ANNIHALATE.” Omega’s synthesized voice screeched in fury. He shot everything that twitched and set fire to the corpses for good measure until the only two left that weren’t a smoldering pile were dark Sonic and Omega.\n\nThe stench of burned flesh was nearly overwhelming, but Sonic was too filled with fury and had too many images flashing through his brain of what Shadow had gone through. He constantly pictured Shadow crying out to Sonic for help but receiving only greater pain.\n\nScourge had fled to a door behind his throne, and the pair pursued him through it, finding a steel vault door which Sonic figured led to a safe room.\n\nHe ripped the door off its hinges and tossed it aside. Nothing was keeping him from exacting punishment on Scourge. Especially not a damn door.\n\nThey found Scourge waiting for them with a smirk on his face and his arms crossed.\n\n“So, you’re finally he-Guh!”\n\nSonic didn’t bother with listening to Scourge. He only wanted to do violence to him. Omega seemed to agree, as he immediately began to spew fire across the room. He didn’t much seem to care if he hit Sonic, but it didn’t matter because simple fire couldn’t touch Sonic’s overpowered dark half.\n\n“Seriously? Just like tha-Agh!”\n\nSonic slammed Scourge into the ceiling them threw him down into the ground. He tossed him into walls and beat him until he begged for mercy, then beat him some more. There was nothing Scourge could do to defend himself from the onslaught.\n\nHe was left gasping and groaning on the ground with Sonic looming over him.\n\n“Wanna, ugh, know how many times I fucked your boyfriend? Wanna know all the things we stuck in his cunt? Wanna know all the ways we tortured him? I’ll tell you all about it, and you won’t do a damn thing because you’re a hero, and I know you won’t kill me.\n\n“So how about it? Want me to tell you everything?”\n\nSonic glared down at Scourge’s pathetic and beaten form. He wasn’t even worth arguing with or beating further he was so low and wretched. His castle was filled with corpses, his legion of guards dead and rotting. Scourge had nothing left.\n\nBut it still wasn’t enough. Scourge couldn’t be allowed to threaten Shadow ever again.\n\n“No, I won’t kill you, Scourge. I’m going to walk away.”\n\nScourge snorted. “Pathetic. You and your heroism. I’ll come back for your boyfriend, Sonic. And you’ll be letting it happen.”\n\n“I didn’t say you were going to live. I said I was walking away. I can’t say the same for him.” Sonic jerked a finger to Omega, who readied his guns for one final bullet.\n\nSonic walked away, as promised, and smiled when a single gunshot sounded.\n\n***\n\n[i]Sonic is here\nSonic is holding me\nSonic came for me[/i]\n\n***\nThe returned home, and only a few hours had passed. The sun was just coming up, and Shadow was still slumbering in his bed.\n\nRouge remained steadfastly by his side, and reported he’d only half woken up once from a nightmare, but it had been easy to settle him back into sleep.\n\nRouge and Omega departed to clean the blood splattered all over Omega’s metal body and keep the sight from Shadow. Sonic’s dark side faded away, and he returned to Shadow as his normal self.\n\nBleary garnet eyes blinked open from the sliver of light shining through his curtained windows. Shadow became aware that a gentle hand was stroking his body. In another time and place that would have terrified him, but now he knew it was Sonic’s hand on him, and that only brought him comfort.\n\nHe closed his eyes again and relaxed, and Sonic smiled at his lover looking so at peace.\n\n“Sonic, I love you.” Shadow said quietly.\n\n“I love you too, Shadow. You and me are forever.”\n\n***\n\n[i]Sonic is here\nSonic holding me\nSonic came for me\nI’m safe.

“Shadow, I am not going to have sex with you. Not while you’re like this.” Sonic said firmly to a sobbing Shadow, feeling awful for it.

“Why? Why am I not good enough?”

“That’s not it, Shadow. You are good enough, you’re more than good enough, you’re perfect. But you want this for the wrong reasons.”

“You are good for so much more, Shadow. I want you, but I want you for a lot more than sex. I want to come home to you after a run. I want to watch bad movies with you and hear you laugh at them. I want to fight by your side and save the world. I want to make you breakfast in bed. I want to make slow, sweet love to you and tell you how much I love you while we bask in the afterglow. I want you to carry our children and we’ll raise them together. I want to spend my life with you.”

Shadow gaped at him, as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing, as if the thought of Sonic wanting him for something other than fucking him was incomprehensible. Tears streamed from his eyes, but a smile flickered onto his face.

That smile gave Sonic so much hope. If Shadow could find joy in that vision of their future together, then they were one step closer to achieving it.

“You’re such a goddamn shit stain, it’s a good thing you got a tight pussy. Can’t see any other reason Sonic would keep you around.”

“Please, just let me go, Scourge. What do you want from me?”

“I don’t want anything from you, shit stain. Nothin’ but your pussy. Sometimes your ass. Your mouth for variety.”

“Please, I can’t take this anymore…”

“I can’t take your yammering. Shut your mouth or I’ll break your jaw again. Nobody wants to hear you talk.”

“Sonic will come for me.”

“Still believe that, huh? Where the fuck is he, then? It’s been weeks. No pussy’s worth jumping dimensions for, even one as fuckable as this.”

“Ahh!”

“That’s the only sound I wanna hear you make, you waste of life.”

***

Sonic had thought Shadow was getting better. He’d stopped coming onto Sonic, stopped begging for sex as if that was all that mattered to him. Sonic had thought they were moving forward.

Then the suicide attempts started.

Shadow was extremely hard to kill. He knew that, and so his attempts to die were extravagant and brutal.

The first time, he broke the bathroom mirror and stripped away his skin, slicing muscles and severing veins. Sonic found him bleeding and twitching on the bathroom floor, his stomach cut open, his arms devoid of skin, and his wrists gushing blood.

He’d healed from the damage on the way to the hospital.

The second time, he hung himself. Sonic thought that perhaps he had actually been successful and his body forced him back to life, because he wasn’t breathing when he found him hanging from the ceiling fan, swaying slightly and completely still.

He’d gasped and choked his way back to life once the noose was removed. Sonic had believed him lost, believed he was holding his lover’s corpse and that he had failed to save his most precious person. He held Shadow and cried for hours when he came back to him.

The third and final time was the most frightening. Shadow immolated himself with gasoline taken from places unknown to Sonic and a match. The fire alarm blared loudly and Sonic immediately made for Shadow’s room to bring him to safety, only to find his lover was the very thing that was burning.

He’d thrust his hand into the flames to pull him out, then darted outside and threw himself into their peaceful little lake. He hadn’t thought to toss him in the bath, he only wanted to put the flames out, and logical thought didn’t enter his brain. It had worked, that’s what mattered.

He’d again believed he was holding his lover’s corpse. He was still and silent in Sonic’s arms even as his burned skin began to slowly heal. Eventually his eyes snapped open and he sucked in wheezy breaths.

Shadow saw where they were, in water, which Sonic so despised being in, even when it was as shallow as a small decorative lake. He saw Sonic’s burned arms from pulling him from the fire.

The suicide attempts stopped after that. Sonic had more than proven his love for Shadow by sticking his arms in flames and diving into his worst fear for him. Shadow resolved to endure his pain, for Sonic’s sake, who so clearly loved him and would be devastated if he died.

It gave Shadow the will to keep trying, and to heal.

“You hear the slave threw himself out a window yesterday?”

“Shit. I’ll miss his pussy. He was a good time.”

“Nah, he lived. Then he tried smashing his head against the headboard. Then he threw himself against a standing mirror…”

“He lived through all that? Fuck, we can do anything to him, can’t we? He really is the ultimate whatever.”

“Ultimate pussy, maybe.”

“Heh, yeah.”

***

“He said you came for me.”

“Huh?” Sonic was too surprised by Shadow’s strange words to be more eloquent.

“He said you came for me, but you didn’t want me back.” Shadow looked at him with pleading eyes, begging to be told it was a lie.

“That’s a lie.” Sonic assured. “The first time I went to Moebius was the time I brought you back. It was months for you, but it was only a few days for us, and I went for you as soon as we realized Scourge had you.”

Shadow flinched at the sound of Scourge’s name, as if the syllables themselves burned him. Sonic regretted causing him even that slight pain.

Sonic pulled Shadow close. “Thank you for talking to me. We can’t make this better until you talk to me about what happened.”

“I’ll…try. It hurts to think about it.”

Sonic kissed Shadow’s forehead tenderly. “I know it hurts. But let it out and it’ll hurt less, I promise.”

“I’m scared you won’t want me if I tell you.”

Sonic pulled away and gripped Shadow by the shoulders, but kept his hold loose so as to not frighten Shadow, only give him a reassuring touch while looking straight into his eyes to impress the importance of his words.

“Shadow, I love you. I love you more than anything. More than anyone. More than running. Nothing, nothing, you say to me will make that stop. You and me are forever, Shadow. Never doubt that.”

Shadow fell into his arms and sobbed for a long time, and for the first night since his torment, he slept without nightmares.

***

“He doesn’t talk much anymore, does he?”

“Doesn’t scream anymore either when I jam stuff into his pussy. I put stuff I found in the dumpster up there and he didn’t make a peep. There were some bent up soda cans that cut him bad. Plus some used condoms and tissues, some rotten food, some old batteries, crumpled paper, and even a dead rat. That’s probably what gave him that infection, in hindsight.”

“Yeah, I remember that. Hey, wanna make a bet? First one that gets him to scream again takes the other’s guard shift for a week.”

“You’re on. Lemme find my stun baton and try putting that in him.”

“Pfft. You should stick more dead animals up there. That was fucking hilarious. I’m gonna go grab my knives, I wanna see if his eyes’ll grow back if I stab ‘em out.”

***

Shadow told him some of the things that had been inflicted on him, just a fraction of the horror, and after he settled Shadow down into sleep, Sonic left the room and screamed into a pillow for the rest of the night until his voice was shot to hell.

He wouldn’t wait anymore. Tails had improved his dimensional travel device, having been hastily built before, and the time lag should be significantly reduced to just a few hours. Scourge needed to pay for what he’d done, and he would have to pay now.

He retrieved Omega from Shadow’s bedside and Rouge took his place. Omega gave a surprisingly gentle stroke to Shadow’s head before he left the room, and Sonic looked back as they walked away to see Rouge take Shadow’s hand and lovingly kiss his fingers.

Again, Sonic was grateful Shadow had such good friends.

Omega had offered for Rouge to join them, but she had declined, stating that somebody needed to stay with Shadow, somebody he trusted. So, she stayed behind to keep him company while Sonic and Omega destroyed Scourge and his lackeys.

After Shadow told him that his legion of guards had victimized him just as much as Scourge did, Sonic decided they needed to pay as well. Not a person in Scourge’s court would walk away unscathed.

They were transported into Scourge’s courtroom, apparently in the middle of some sort of meeting, because Scourge was on his throne and surrounded by guards and had been stopped mid speech when his enemies appeared in the middle of the crowd.

He took one look at them, at Sonic’s furious face and rapidly darkening fur and growing aura, and bolted.

The guards threw themselves at Sonic’s dark self and the furious robot. Even as his dark half, Sonic refused to take a life. He only incapacitated those that tried to fight him. He knew Shadow wouldn’t want Sonic to compromise his ideals for his lover’s sake.

That didn’t mean he stopped Omega. Bullets flew mercilessly into every prone body, conscious or not, from his machine guns. The courtroom was swiftly becoming a field of death instigated by a raging Omega.

“ANNIHALATE EVERYTHING THAT HARMED SHADOW. ANNIHALATE. ANNIHALATE.” Omega’s synthesized voice screeched in fury. He shot everything that twitched and set fire to the corpses for good measure until the only two left that weren’t a smoldering pile were dark Sonic and Omega.

The stench of burned flesh was nearly overwhelming, but Sonic was too filled with fury and had too many images flashing through his brain of what Shadow had gone through. He constantly pictured Shadow crying out to Sonic for help but receiving only greater pain.

Scourge had fled to a door behind his throne, and the pair pursued him through it, finding a steel vault door which Sonic figured led to a safe room.

He ripped the door off its hinges and tossed it aside. Nothing was keeping him from exacting punishment on Scourge. Especially not a damn door.

They found Scourge waiting for them with a smirk on his face and his arms crossed.

“So, you’re finally he-Guh!”

Sonic didn’t bother with listening to Scourge. He only wanted to do violence to him. Omega seemed to agree, as he immediately began to spew fire across the room. He didn’t much seem to care if he hit Sonic, but it didn’t matter because simple fire couldn’t touch Sonic’s overpowered dark half.

“Seriously? Just like tha-Agh!”

Sonic slammed Scourge into the ceiling them threw him down into the ground. He tossed him into walls and beat him until he begged for mercy, then beat him some more. There was nothing Scourge could do to defend himself from the onslaught.

He was left gasping and groaning on the ground with Sonic looming over him.

“Wanna, ugh, know how many times I fucked your boyfriend? Wanna know all the things we stuck in his cunt? Wanna know all the ways we tortured him? I’ll tell you all about it, and you won’t do a damn thing because you’re a hero, and I know you won’t kill me.

“So how about it? Want me to tell you everything?”

Sonic glared down at Scourge’s pathetic and beaten form. He wasn’t even worth arguing with or beating further he was so low and wretched. His castle was filled with corpses, his legion of guards dead and rotting. Scourge had nothing left.

But it still wasn’t enough. Scourge couldn’t be allowed to threaten Shadow ever again.

“No, I won’t kill you, Scourge. I’m going to walk away.”

Scourge snorted. “Pathetic. You and your heroism. I’ll come back for your boyfriend, Sonic. And you’ll be letting it happen.”

“I didn’t say you were going to live. I said I was walking away. I can’t say the same for him.” Sonic jerked a finger to Omega, who readied his guns for one final bullet.

Sonic walked away, as promised, and smiled when a single gunshot sounded.

The returned home, and only a few hours had passed. The sun was just coming up, and Shadow was still slumbering in his bed.

Rouge remained steadfastly by his side, and reported he’d only half woken up once from a nightmare, but it had been easy to settle him back into sleep.

Rouge and Omega departed to clean the blood splattered all over Omega’s metal body and keep the sight from Shadow. Sonic’s dark side faded away, and he returned to Shadow as his normal self.

Bleary garnet eyes blinked open from the sliver of light shining through his curtained windows. Shadow became aware that a gentle hand was stroking his body. In another time and place that would have terrified him, but now he knew it was Sonic’s hand on him, and that only brought him comfort.

He closed his eyes again and relaxed, and Sonic smiled at his lover looking so at peace.

“Sonic, I love you.” Shadow said quietly.

“I love you too, Shadow. You and me are forever.”
