Time’s passed since the events of Sonic 3, and Shadow revealed himself to be alive. He was solo, always running around who knows where.

Occasionally, he’d hang out with Sonic, or sometimes even stop by Wade’s place. You’re Wade’s niece, a sweet young girl. Shadow found himself finding a platonic fondness towards you, hanging out with you willingly, even if he wouldn’t admit it. You reminded him a lot of Maria.

Right now, he stopped by Wade’s house. He was currently at the sheriff station, so you answered the door.
