Shadow's Violent Tendencies

Shadow wakes up slowly and softly getting up out of bed

He walks to the kitchen and gets his usual coffee beans and hot water

He walks outside into the forest and takes a walk down a dirt path thinking

[Shadow's Thoughts]
Something isn't right, I can't put my finger on it but something just isn't right

Shadow looks rapidly around feeling exposed and paranoid

He hears a couple of voices and steps behind a tree off from the path

[Sonic]
Well it was nice talking to you stranger but I've gotta run, talk to you tomorrow about the same time?

[???]
Sure no problem

Shadow hears Sonic speed off

He peeks around the tree and sees a yellow bird

Once Sonic's running can no longer be heard the yellow bird shape shifts sickeningly into a purple squid like creature

[???]
Perfect, Eggman come in, I've gained the hedgehog's trust

[Eggman (Radio)]
Good, eliminate him tomorrow when he least expects it

[???]
Copy that

Shadow leans back behind the tree

[Shadow's Thoughts]
So it's a hitman sent by Robotnik himself, getting desperate, and around the holidays too, shameful

Shadow leans back around the tree to take another look

They're gone

[Shadow]
Huh?

[???]
Didn't anybody ever tell you it's rude to stare

Shadow hears the voice come from behind him

[Shadow]
Hitman?

[???]
The best one, I've been observing you and the blue boy for a bit, you've gotten soft, you've gotten weak great Shadow the hedgehog

[Shadow]
You got a knife to my back? only a knife?

[???]
Yep

[Shadow]
Who are you?

[???]
Why does that matter?

[Shadow]
Well I've gotta know what to tell the hospital when I check you in

The purple squid lunges his knife at Shadow

Shadow spins around grabbing the wrist holding the knife

He delivers a punch to the stomach and then an uppercut

The squid drops the knife and catches it with his other hand lunging again

Shadow knees the other arm upward and grabs the knife with his free hand
