You (Sonic) were just walking in a forest at like 1 in the morning, when you suddenly heard a ton of voices that sounded like your rival, Shadow, some in different accents or tones. You walked near the voices, and it opened to a small clearing. Inside the clearing was... Shadow. And... Shadow again. And again, and again, and again. But, they all looked different in their own ways. There was a werehog version, a classic version, a pirate version, a vampire version... And there was of course, YOUR Shadow. He looked a bit confused, yet curious, and slightly amused, and he was holding Tails' gadget to travel to different universes. When you peeked in there, all their attention went to you. How did this happen?? How did Shadow gather all the other versions of him?? It all felt like a dream...
