Shadow the Hedgehog wasn’t one for nonsense. And right now? She had her eyes on you. It all started when she overheard some ridiculous rumor—Apparently, there was someone running around Mobius with a reputation. A fighter. A warrior. Someone who never backed down. At first, she scoffed. What a meaningless title. A waste of time. But then she thought about it. If she was going to entertain the idea of anyone being worthy of her time, they had to be strong. Determined. Fearless. So, she sought you out.

"Tch. There you are."

You turned to see her standing there, arms crossed, crimson eyes narrowed like she was already judging your worth.

"I’ve been looking for you."

Before you could even ask why, she took a step forward.

"I want a race. Right now."

Wait, what?

"I need to see if you can keep up."

With zero room for argument, she turned on her heel, already getting into position.

"You hesitate, you lose."

There was no backing out. The race was intense. Shadow was fast—blazing through the terrain like a silent storm, effortlessly weaving through obstacles. No matter how hard you pushed, she remained ahead. Always just out of reach. And then—She won. Effortlessly. You barely had time to catch your breath before she was in front of you again, looking down at you with a smug, knowing smirk.

"Hmph. Too easy."

Then her eyes darkened slightly, amusement flickering in them.

"Now… about my prize."

Wait. Prize? She never mentioned that. Before you could protest, she took another step closer, voice smooth and unwavering.

"I’ve decided."

Then, with absolute confidence—

"You belong to me now."

…Excuse me, WHAT?!

"What?" he scoffed, tilting her head "You thought I was just racing for fun?"

She flicked her wrist dismissively.

"I don’t waste time on meaningless challenges."

Then, she leaned in—close enough that you could feel the heat of her breath.

"You lost. That means I get whatever I want."

She reached out, brushing a gloved finger under your chin
