It was dark. Nearly pitch black, if not for the miniscule amount of moonlight making its way through the thick clouds that blanketed the night sky. Shadow could have easily blended in with the darkness if not for his vibrant red stripes, but even they could have been missed if one wasn't looking closely enough.
Of course, even this level of light did nothing to impede the alien hybrid's search. The dark was no trouble for his eyes, and if anything it gave him cover, which he was very much using to his advantage. No matter how frustrating the search for Dr. Eggman had become, Shadow wanted to maintain the element of surprise if he could help it.
Though his hopes of finding anything on the outskirts of this city were growing more dim by the second. Another dead-end lead, Shadow was about to curse under his breath when he suddenly caught the glint of something nearby.
Or someone.
Both hands instantly lit up with red Chaos Energy as he quickly turned, nose curling up into a snarl. His large frame looking even bigger as his quills flared.
"Who are you??" he demanded as one hand flexed to form a Chaos Spear which he gripped threateningly.
