Control (A Shadow The Hedgehog x Reader Story)

Y/n awoke, head pounding. She held her hand against it, feeling dizzy and nauseous. 

"Where am I?" she asked herself out loud, looking around. "Who am I?" she questionned shortly after. She looked around but didn't see much, some storage boxes with a logo of a face and a mustache, a couple of piles of metal parts. That was about it. 

After a few moments the nausea and dizzy spell subsided, allowing her to try and think straight. She looked down to see her wrists had been taped together and looked further down to see her ankles had also. Brilliant.

"How am I meant to move anywhere" she mumbled to herself. Slowly, she managed to angle herself against the wall and use it to get herself standing upright. She stayed still for a moment, the nausea returning briefly and fading again. She saw a door about a metre or so away, and she started shuffling towards it. 

Just as she got close to it, the door swung open towards her, knocking her back onto the floor and making her pass out again.

Meanwhile Shadow had crash landed into a building having missed the blimp by a landslide. "OMEGA" he growled into his earpiece "What sort of shot was that?!" he growl-shouted. "You missed by a landslide" he added after, watching the blimp go out of range. Omega didn't respond, and Rouge questionned if Shadow was planning on going after it. "It doesn't seem weaponized, can't you just track it for now?" he questionned, the feeling in the pit of his stomach getting worse. 

"That sounds like a plan, I'll get a team onto it" Rouge answered. 

"Great, I need to go and check on something at home" Shadow answered, turning off the communicator and speeding towards it. He was in the lift going up and something still wasn't sitting right, although he hadn't noticed anything yet. 

He arrived at his apartment door, and everything still looked... normal? But the feeling hadn't gone away. He put the key in the door and opened it, walking into his aparment.

His window was smashed open, a cardboard box on the table and pieces of metal and glass everywhere. He could feel the anger rising and he was trying so hard to contain it. 

So. Very. Hard.

His next thought turned to where the love of his life was. He dashed around the apartment looking for her, unable to find a trace.

And that just made him angrier. 

Next he went back to the box. It definitely was not something he had ordered. Someone must have known he ordered something and used this... explosion, to gain access to his living area. Maybe y/n wasn't their target. She just got caught up in something meant for him, maybe.

At least, he hoped she wasn't the target.

He looked closer at the box, noticing there were still bits in there. There was no name label on the sides or the top. And no company name or logo on the exterior. 

But at the bottom of the box he could see a logo, and he shuffled the parts out of the way to see it clearly.

"The doctor has signed his death warrant" he growled, jumping out of his broken window and speeding down the wall of the building he lived in.
