Hehe, enjoy reading this one. Tissues are over there, and try to avoid killing me or Weirdo for this one. Also, I wanna know reactions please. (PS, this is straight from the log, nothing been edited and I didn't bother to erase the names cause both of us have our screenies up on here already. Ignore the timestamps as well. I did put spaces between the posts though.)
elekid090 (1:06:18 AM): *Shadow finally arrived at the destination described by Rouge...Keeping his head on a swivel, he searched the area, keeping a lookout for the batgirl*
JinAkago (1:14:10 AM): He would soon find her, but he was not the first. She had been in a small ditch, trying to hide herself. Now she had pressed herself against a tree, a gun pointed at her, in the hands of a soldier. ...
JinAkago (1:14:17 AM): Her eyes were filled with that fear that only grasped someone in their final moments of life. He would never make it in time to save her, as the GUN soldier unloaded the entire clip of bullets into her chest. ...
JinAkago (1:14:36 AM): Moments before he did, she pressed the button on her communicator to send her last message to Shadow. Each bullet made her body jump from the energy and after the clip was done, the soldier simply started to walk off. ...
JinAkago (1:14:43 AM): It wasn't his job to clean up the mess. He hadn't seen Shadow nearby as he sent a message to the base to say Rouge had been found and dealt with.
elekid090 (1:33:46 AM): *Shadow's fists ball up into rage, his hands shaking in the anger of what he had just witnessed, it only took seconds before he shot after the soldier that gunned Rouge down...
elekid090 (1:33:49 AM): ...sending his fist straight into the back of the grunt's neck, screaming to the top of his lungs as he swings*...YOU SON OF A BITCH!
elekid090 (1:34:05 AM): (I'm hoping he'll be conscious so I can punish heem!)
JinAkago (1:37:30 AM): He never saw it coming, and collapsed to the ground, though he was still conscious. Shadow's wrist watch was beeping, but he wouldn't likely notice at the moment.
elekid090 (2:28:25 AM): *There were hundreds, possibly even thousands of ideas running through Shadow's head on how to kill this bastard. He paused long enough to hand pick the most gruesome, painful one in his imagination...
elekid090 (2:28:30 AM): ...That was when the machete clipped onto the soldier's waist caught his attention. He deftly grabbed it, giving the soldier a nice hard kick to the side to flip him over, and after a single twirl in his fingers...
elekid090 (2:28:35 AM): ...drove it down inside his mouth, making sure to offset the blow just enough to avoid the spinal column. He wanted this bastard to feel every ounce of pain that was just installed into him*...
elekid090 (2:28:41 AM): ...*The soldier was only following orders, he had a family, friends, kids even, all of whom would have to lay witness the photos of his horribly mangled corpse at the climax of this slaughtering...
elekid090 (2:29:09 AM): ...but as of now, the killing was in the present, and the suffering was ever so in it's place as the knife tore through the gums, and mangled the flesh...
elekid090 (2:29:10 AM): ...spewing blood as he tried to scream, but was silenced by the wounds of cold steel and madness.*...
elekid090 (2:29:36 AM): ...*But was Shadow satisfied? Heavens no...he continued to force the blade downward, coming to an obstacale in the form of his jawbone...
elekid090 (2:29:44 AM): ...He continued to force the knife downward as he pushed on the other side of the jaw using his spare hand, eventually breaking the bone vertically down the center and removing the blade*...
elekid090 (2:29:55 AM): ...*The entire time, the soldier had his hands weakly grasped on Shadow's arms, fighting in vain to overpower the sadistic hedgehog. The more flesh that was rended by the machette, the more the soldier struggled...
elekid090 (2:30:12 AM): ...his legs kicking about wildly, sometimes pushing into the ground and causing him to arch...
elekid090 (2:30:14 AM): ...With his throat and jugular ruptured, the pain would become unbearable and unimaginable and lacking the ability to scream only made the suffering worse*...
elekid090 (2:30:32 AM): ...*And here, Shadow simply watched him, the way he squirmed and struggled, the way he fought desperatly for the lost cause of his own life...
elekid090 (2:30:34 AM): ... down to his every last breath Shadow watched him, and he fed off of this, all until the cretin's death...and even then, Shadow wasn't satisfied...
elekid090 (2:30:48 AM): ...he continued to take the blade and maul at the soldier's corpse until it was was almost unrecognizable, every inch of flesh rippling with terrible wounds...
elekid090 (2:30:53 AM): ...The hedgehog himself was covered in more blood then anything else, red streaks adorning his body even moreso then before It was only afterwards when he noticed the beeping on his wrist comm, and flipped it open*
JinAkago (7:51:52 AM): The message left behind for Shadow was of course from the now murdered bat. Along with the attachment of the stolen files, this small video contained Rouge's final thoughts and words shortly before her death. ...
JinAkago (7:52:09 AM): It was addressed to him and him alone as the person she cared about the most while in her mortal coil. ...
JinAkago (7:52:11 AM): Being so close to death, not even the bat was immune to the slight fear that effects almost everyone right before the final plunge. ...
JinAkago (7:52:23 AM): This small fear of the unknown that she could be very soon forced to experience could be spotted in small signs as she composed the video. ...
JinAkago (7:52:38 AM): "Shadow, I decided to go ahead and make this... just in case... I don't plan on sending it unless it starts looking like I won't survive this, so chances are if your actually hearing this, something likely happened. ...
JinAkago (7:52:53 AM): I just... I just wanted a chance to tell the truth before it was too late. A small part of me was always trying to get me to tell you this, but I just refused to. ...
JinAkago (7:53:03 AM): Before... before we met, I had tried to keep everyone at a distance thinking it would make the job easier if I was never close to anyone. ...
JinAkago (7:53:12 AM): Even on the ARK the first time we had met, even then the wall had started to give way. I wouldn't admit I felt some sort of connection to you though, reminding myself of my mission over and over. ...
JinAkago (7:53:23 AM): It wasn't until... until I saw you fall and thought that you had died that I finally started to admit I had begun to care for you. I was a lot worse then, then I ever thought it would be. ...
JinAkago (7:53:31 AM): But, I pushed it out of my mind and tried to continue as nothing had happened. Then you showed back up. I had rebuilt the ability to stay distant from people, but it seemed to vanish again the moment you came back. ...
JinAkago (7:53:42 AM): I finally had to admit to myself I cared so much about you. But even then it wasn't the whole truth. ...
JinAkago (7:53:51 AM): It's almost funny... A fearless and skilled treasure hunter like me who faced life and death on an almost daily basis couldn't find the courage to face fact and tell you how I felt. ...
JinAkago (7:54:04 AM): That somewhere along the way, I wound up... falling in love with you... Even now its hard to say, and if I live, a week later I'll probably want to go live under a rock for a while. ...
JinAkago (7:54:13 AM): But it's the truth, and I didn't want to waste my last chance if this was it. Good-bye Shadow, and I pray its not the last time..." ...
JinAkago (7:54:14 AM): With those last words, the recorded message to him ended and the last words from Rouge ended as simply as that.
elekid090 (8:40:16 AM): *Every single word of this message felt like a knife to the heart for Shadow...the more he listened, the more it began to sink in all he had just lost...He hadn't even noticed that his eyes had begun to tear at this point...
elekid090 (8:40:21 AM): ...as his palms developed an uncontrollable tremble. When it was finally over, he quickly slammed the communicator shut and fell to his knees shortly after, gripping his wrist tight to try and force his hand to still...
elekid090 (8:40:26 AM): ...It was no use, however, and furthermore, the hedgehog's emotions and feelings began to run out of control, his mind now just as unsteady as his body...
elekid090 (8:40:30 AM): ...Thoughts of hatred only led him to despair...even delusion, which was shown as he spoke to himself with a tone broken with fear and sadness.*...N-n-no...t...th-this...c...can't be...c-can't be happening...
elekid090 (8:40:34 AM): ...*He then began to look over the small blade which he had just used to take the life of Rouge's murderer, contenplating using it to end his own next, under the belief that it would wake him from this nightmare...
elekid090 (8:40:41 AM): ...An ounce of sanity returned to him, however, as he dropped the weapon, returning to his feet in haste so he could take several frantic steps away from it and look over his quivering palms...
elekid090 (8:40:47 AM): ...With a shout of reason, he screamed at himsef..."What am I doing!?"...This sanity was only temporary, however, as delusion stepped into the process once more at the sight of his close partner's corpse...
elekid090 (8:40:51 AM): ..."Maybe she's still alive!?" he thought, unable to come to terms with the truth of matters, and began to approach the body, examining it's lifeless form as he knelt down and slowly lifted her head...
elekid090 (8:41:00 AM): ...all the while, he used his other free hand to feel for a pulse, anything that could take away the mental torment of what in the back of his mind, he knew to be true*...R-rouge!...Please...say...say something!...
elekid090 (8:41:09 AM): ...P...please...you can't...can't die on me...I...I need you!
JinAkago (9:43:24 AM): But nothing he said nor did could draw a reaction from the corpse. Her pulse was null, and her body as cold as ice. There was nothing that could be done for her, and nothing to call her back to life. ...
JinAkago (9:43:47 AM): Nature's unsympathetic rules were as clear as day; death only works one way. Rouge was just that, dead, and there was no way to get her back. Her wings were no longer folded neatly as she normally kept them, but limp and spread. ...
JinAkago (9:43:57 AM): The left was badly tattered from where branches had ripped the hole in the thin membrane wider. Small cuts in her arms and legs could be seen from the same source. ...
JinAkago (9:44:06 AM): She had tried hard to escape them, shown by the fact that she had went as far as disregarding the idea of being cut up to go through the most difficult path she could possibly take to try and shake them. ...
JinAkago (9:44:16 AM): Even so, she had fallen short of her goal and her life had been snuffed out by the same soldier who now lay mutilated not far away. A full clip had been unloaded into the bat's chest and internally shredded her. ...
JinAkago (9:44:23 AM): Many of the entrance wounds could be seen where they pierced through her skin, but most of the bullets had no exit. Worse yet, her eyes had not closed upon her death. ...
JinAkago (9:44:30 AM): Half way open, they stared into nothing absent with the look that eyes of the living possessed.
elekid090 (10:28:18 AM): *The frigid feeling that she gave was unbearable, it felt as if the cold was almost burning through the hedgehog's flesh. With one last surge of desperation, he shook Rouge's corpse, begging her to return*...
elekid090 (10:28:25 AM): ...No...NO!...GODDAMNIT, SAY SOMETHING!...*But when she refused to reawaken, the twisted truth of reality finally began to sink in. Rising to his feet, Shadow held the bat's body in his arms, still crying freely over her death...
elekid090 (10:28:31 AM): ...He sat her down next to a nearby tree, leaning against it...As much as he hated to leave the body like this, he knew now was not the time for a funeral, as there was still much death to be dealt...
elekid090 (10:28:36 AM): ...The outpost which ordered such unthinkable deeds was nearby and it would have to serve as an example, a testament to the end of days in which this one sole being was now beginning to seek out yet again...
elekid090 (10:28:42 AM): ...Oh yes, it would be a genocide...a neverending fire to consume the world. Why should anyone be spared from this anguish if not even he could avoid such great loss?...
elekid090 (10:28:45 AM): ...Even the littlest of children were a target in his mind now. After all, they would simply evolve into the same knuckle dragging barbarians that held rule over this world today...
elekid090 (10:28:52 AM): ...Yes, even they had to die now, else the cycle would begin again...It was only assistance, really...Mankind was damned by it's on destructive path...what's a little push to hurry things along?...
elekid090 (10:28:56 AM): ...These thoughts of madness and unjust insanity roared through the hedgehog's mind as he set off once again, seeking blood in redemption for the sins committed against him...
elekid090 (10:29:00 AM): ...So much did these vicious thoughts consume him that he nearly forgot of the attachment that he had been sent along with Rouge's final words...so as he traveled, Shadow grudgingly flipped the comm device open...
elekid090 (10:29:01 AM): ...looking over these files as he ran, as time was of the essence and he did not plan to have the first of many deaths by his hand to be discovered and ruin the chance of a sneak attack*
JinAkago (10:48:40 AM): The information contained with in the data would likely only ignite the flames of anger he felt worse. The treachery which the highest members of GUN had planned to commit would be now laid in front of him. ...
JinAkago (10:48:55 AM): Though she had failed at saving her own life, she had succeeded in warning him of the betrayal that would have likely taken his. ...
JinAkago (10:48:56 AM): They still thought him only a weapon, and this thought wouldn't ever be ended in these crooked leaders. ...
JinAkago (10:49:04 AM): The sad irony of this was that much like Maria before her, Rouge's life had only been taken because of these overgrown children who believed it was their right to do with him what they pleased.
elekid090 (11:00:43 AM): *This was, indeed, the final nail in humanity's coffin. If loyalty only resulted in betrayal from these monsters out of their petty greed, then there was no point in trying to save them...
elekid090 (11:00:44 AM): ...Armed with the very rifle that took his beloved's life, Shadow loomed in upon this nearby GUN base, his thirst for vengance growing with every step*
Edit: Quick word in SEGA's direction: Now THAT is a death scene if I do say so myself.
elekid090 (1:06:18 AM): *Shadow finally arrived at the destination described by Rouge...Keeping his head on a swivel, he searched the area, keeping a lookout for the batgirl*
