                                                          The Shadow

It was quiet this night.  The moon was just beginning to rise over the grassy hill.  The sky was a mixture of black and purple filled with stars.  Nearby in a small city one young man was sitting near the way out.  However if you looked more closely you could see he was barely sitting still and constantly looking towards the moon.

“He will be here, I know today he will...”

“Give it a rest!”  With that our watcher jumped and looked towards the street.

“Don't scare me like that, you know how jumpy I am Vincent!”  He yelled.

“Sorry, but you are wasting your time, he will never come here.  You could be enjoying yourself but instead you wait here for a creature that may not even exist Matt, your hopeless.”  That made Matt angry.

“He will come and he does exist!  He is a hero to Mobius and has saved countless lives!  How could you even say he doesn't exist?!”

Vincent sighed.  “If you are not going to listen you will be here forever.”  With that the anthropic mouse walked away.  As he left Matt sighed too.

“Please, if you do exist, please come tonight.  I will finally be able to show you exist.  No one even knows your name for Mobius' sake!”  With that the dark blue hedgehog sighed again and was about to give up hope when he saw something.  It was a streak of white followed by what appeared to be a tornado.  Except this tornado was traveling on it's side as if following.  Matt was awestruck.

“C-could it be...”  With that the hedgehog ran to follow the white blur.  He didn't have to run for long.  What he saw amazed him.  It was a glowing white fox.  Sparks of energy kept escaping his or her fur.  It was staring at the moon while standing on the hill.  Matt could only gasp but that was enough to catch the fox's attention.  When he turned Matt saw the creature's eyes kept changing colors.  It was changing into each color imaginable but tended to stay on blue and orange longer then the rest.  As soon as the fox laid his eyes on Matt he felt like he was hit by lightning, but it was painless.  The fox rose an eyebrow and said it's first words since meeting Matt.

“Sonic...?”  Matt suddenly snapped back.  “Huh?  Who's Sonic?  My name is Matt.”

The fox's head lowered, as if in disappointment.  “Oh.”  With that he prepared to take off.

“WAIT!”  Matt yelled.  “Please don't go!  I have been waiting for years to finally meet you!  At least tell me your name!”

The fox once again looked at him and said said five words.  “My name is Miles Prower.”  It was then that Matt noticed that the fox had two tails...
