The Stone

The Stone

An ebony hedgehog was walking alone in a meadow. He could see the city. It was a faint white line from the horizon but it was there. He walked around thinking. A pink female hedgehog was in his mind. She always seemed to appear in his mind every time he was alone. He smiled at the thought of her. Something about her made him smile. He kept walking till something shined in the afternoon sun. It was a red gem. Shadow cautiously went over and looked. It was in a small stream. He picked it up. It dripped with water. He looked at it closely. He noticed a hoof mark on the strange stone.

"Hmmm….a hoof marking? What would a hoof be doing imprinted on this stone?" He asked himself.

It them began to glow bright red.

"What the heck!?" He yelled as he drooped it. It continued to glow. He looked at it began to hover in the air. He gasped as it landed upon his hand and disappeared into his palm.

"What's going on!?" The confused male said. Then he began to feel dizzy.

"What is happening….I feel strange and tired….all of a ….sudden……" Shadow passed out onto the moist green grass. A broken heart appeared upon his palm. It was split down the middle.

Amy's Home

"Sonic come back here!" She yelled. Sonic was running for his life.

"Amy chill! Let's talk about this!" Sonic said cowering in a corner.

"No way! You will marry me Sonic the Hedgehog!" Amy laughed.

"Nooooooo!" Sonic yelled running around the female's home. The whole house was pink. It was creepy in Sonic's eyes. Amy dragged him over to her house. He thought they were just going to talk but she began talking about marriage!

"Sonic give up! This time you're mine!" Amy laughed chasing her blue hero.

"Amy nock it off!" Sonic yelled. He reached the front door and ran outside. Amy followed.

"Sonic! Sonic sweetie! Where are you my soon to be husband!?" Amy laughed as she searched the park.

Back To Shadow

(Ohhh….my head. What happened?) He asked getting up. He shuck and went over to the stream to wash off his face. He yawned and looked to the sky. It was dark with millions of stars visible. He sighed and went closer to the stream. He put his face near the water. His reflection showed a horse!

(What the heck! How…what I'm a no it can't be! Okay Shadow just close your eyes and take a deep breath. Must be your mind playing tricks on you). Shadow closed his eyes and opened them slowly. He still saw a horse. A black horse with red stripes on his back, head and long four legs. He mane had a long red streak on it and the bottom part was black like his new coat. His tail was bushy with a red streak.

(Holy …..) He neighed the final word. His eyes widened.

(I can't talk! I CAN'T TALK!) He thought to himself. He looked at himself. He was going crazy.

(I'm a horse! A horse! I'm Shadow the Hedgehog! Not Shadow the HORSE! I'm GOING CRAZY! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP SHADOW!WAKE UUUUUPPPPPP!) Shadow went crazy he tried to splash water onto his face but his hooves wouldn't let him. He spun around and saw that he had to walk on all fours. His tail was long and frankly annoying! His mane was long too. He was a pitch black horse with red stripes.

(I think I'm going to just lie down and wake up from this nightmare. Yeah. I'm having a bad dream that's all.) Shadow reassured himself. He laid down with his legs going under his belly. He placed his head on the grass and shut his eyes tight.

)Okay. I'm a hedgehog…right about…NOW!) He shot his red eyes open. He was still a horse.

(Okay Now. Now. NOW! NOW! NOWWWWW!) Shadow yelled in his mind.

(Oh it's no use. I'm a horse. What do I do? How do I change this?) Then he noticed something on his right hoof. He turned it over and saw half a heart?

(Wonder where that came from? What does it mean?) He asked himself. He sighed. He looked and saw that he had a long snout. He rolled his eyes and tried to talk again.

"Neigh…neigh." Was all he could say.

(Terrific. Just what I needed. To be a forsaken HORSE!) He yelled. He got up and began to walk. He headed for the city.

(Wonder what would happen if I go to the city?) He thought.

He sighed then the stone came to mind.

(Did that stone cause this?) He asked himself still walking. He sighed and went on.

Whoa! A horse! Yeah strange I know! But cool! Shadow get's to see what a horse sees. Review it and another chap is coming! Don't be mean about the whole horse thing okay.
