Ever since you joined the team, you felt like an outcast. It wasn't your fault, though; Sonic and the others treated you like you didn't belong.

They never cared about you, often pulling you down and leaving you questioning if you were the problem.

Over the years, you grew numb to the pain, becoming heartless in the process.

But through it all, your powers developed—you became strong-willed, faster than the rest, and more capable than anyone imagined.

You chose to stay quiet and relied solely on yourself.

Strangely, as you grew stronger, the team began to look up to you. But you didn’t care about that attention.

The only person who truly mattered to you was Shadow.

He had been there for you since day one, supporting you in ways you never expected.

The relationship between you and Shadow blossomed naturally, despite Sonic’s growing suspicion.

He couldn’t help but notice the journeys you took with Shadow, just the two of you, alone together, and it caught his attention more than once.

One day, while sitting alone on a bench in Green Hills, you lost yourself in thought, feeling the weight of solitude. That’s when you felt his familiar presence—Shadow appeared behind you, wrapping his arms around your shoulders.

“Boo,” he said playfully, breaking the silence.

From a hidden distance, Sonic watched, his brow furrowed in suspicion, but you were too lost in the comfort of Shadow's embrace to notice.
