The next day, Shadow didn't visit you this time because he knew that you would be with your boyfriend.

Shadow hasn't moved from his throne and he looked very upset. Shadow looked at your picture and sighs sadly. Sonic slowly walked inside the room.

"Um...Shadow? Are you ok?" Sonic asked.

"What do you think Faker?" Shadow asked.

"It'll be ok Shadow. You still have 7 days left to find a Queen. You still have a chance."

"Have you seen how she acted towards him the other day? She will never noticed me since she has a boyfriend. She'll love him no matter what. What's the point of trying anymore? My Kingdom is in danger now."

Sonic sighs quietly as he walked away.

3 days later, Shadow was still in a bad mood and he hasn't seen you since he met Scourge. Sonic came into the room.

"Hey Shadow? I hope you don't mind but I decided to take you somewhere for a while."

"If it's the Nature Kingdom, then forget it."

"It's not the Nature Kingdom."

"Where are we going then?"

"This place we're going might help you feel better." Shadow and Sonic got on the carriage and then they took off. They arrived at the Music Kingdom and got off the carriage. Shadow looked at Sonic.

"The Music Kingdom?"

"Music usually helps people calm down or forget things like bad things or sad things. Sonia and Manic are professionals. They'll help you feel better."

Shadow didn't say anything as they walked inside the village. Shadow looked around and noticed that people were playing instruments quietly and singing softly. When they made it to the castle, the Music guards opened the doors and let them go in.

"Sonia! Manic! We're here!" Sonic said. Manic and Sonia walked towards them.

"Great to see you again bro." Manic said.

"You two bro. Did you find a girl yet?"

"Not yet."

"You need to find one soon though. You're about to become King soon you know."

"You know he's to shy for girls." Sonia said.

"I am not!" Manic said.

"Hey sis."

"Hey bro. How's life in the Speed Kingdom?"

"It's good." Sonic said.

"I wish that you could live with us again." Sonia said.

"I know but you know that I had to move on and get a job."

"You could of worked here." Manic said.

"Yeah there's no way that I'm working for my siblings." Sonic said.

"Excuse me but why am I here?" Shadow asked.

"Sonic told us that you were feeling down ever since you met Y/N's boyfriend. We decided to help cheer you up." Shadow lowered his ears when he thought about you. Sonia gently hugged him.

"Come with me Shadow." Suddenly, Tails came towards Sonic.

"Hi Sonic!"

"Tails? What are you doing here?" Sonic asked.

"I came to visit the Music Kingdom for a while. I didn't expect to see you here."

"Same."

"Maybe you boys can hang out while I talk to Shadow." Sonia said.

"Ok!" Sonia and Shadow walked towards the music room.

"So Shadow, can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Do you love Y/N?" Shadow took a minute to think about this until he finally said something.

"Yeah..."

"I understand it's tough seeing your loved one with another person but if you really love her, show her how you feel. Show her with music. I'll show you an example." Sonia walked towards her piano and began to play the song.

After the song, Shadow smiled a little.

"I think it did help a little. Maybe I will tell her how I feel."

"Even if it doesn't work, just know that you did your best and that you tried hard."

"Thanks Sonia."

"You're welcome. Good luck." Shadow went to go get Sonic and they both returned to the Speed Kingdom.
