Shadow had forgotten his tent on a camping trip for Amy's birthday. Of course the only reason he came was to find a choas emerald rumored to be nearby. But Shadow's plan failed as no one would leave him alone, or would catch him if he tried to leave camp.

At night, Shadow sat on a log overlooking a beautiful lake glistening in the moonlight. As he was planning how to sneak out of camp tomorrow, Sonic sat down next to him "What do you want, faker?" Shadow asked in an annoyed tone.
