There was no reason to continue. Even when the world had become a peaceful place, Amy Rose couldn't find a reason to keep going. The days were long and the nights cold, not like it matter anyway, she couldn't feel anything. Ending it wouldn't make a difference, she perfectly knew that the last thing Shadow wanted for her was to have suicidal thoughts. After all, he gave up his own life to save her and everyone else.

"Shadow, you don't have to do this! You don't own anything to the world...so why risk it all?"

It hasn't been long since Amy and Shadow got married when Neon Metal Sonic attacked. Sonic had already gone to the battlefield waiting for Shadow to join him. There was not enough time and although Shadow wanted to help, he also was afraid that this could be the last time he would see Amy.

"I never thought that you would be selfish over me", Shadow smirked trying to calm down his wife but failed miserably.

"Take me seriously would you! Shadow, I don't want to lose you...."

"I'll be back, I always do, don't I?"

.

But he didn't it.

Amy was still angry at him for not keeping his promise. If there was another life, she would make sure to scold him good enough. Of course, only if Sonic gets to him first. Amy remembers that when Shadow passed away, Sonic was devastated as well. It took him two years to completely be back into action, he would come to visit her once in a while to make sure she was well. Amy would forever be grateful to him because even at the last moments, Sonic was with her until Shadow's last breath.

Amy then heard bombing like sounds in the city, she headed that way trying to see the cause behind it. She knew that it was stupid, but Amy was desperate in her own mind she thought that maybe if she was in danger, Shadow would come to rescue her. Like he always did. After all, he would never let anything bad happen to her.

"Now with Shadow dead and Sonic is in the other side of the globe, no one can stop me from taking over the city and then...the world-"

Infinite then noticed Amy standing in front of him, noticing her as the crow was running away.

"Oh, you are the pink hedgehog who Shadow used to care for so much...", infinite was slowly getting down to the ground, fire and destruction all over the place.]

"I remember him kicking me to the ground and beating me almost to death just because I dared to touch your pink hair...but now...", Infinite touched Amy's head delicately, appreciating her beauty and Amy waited patiently for the impossible to happen.

"No one can stop me", suddenly, Infinite slapped Amy making her fall to the ground. Amy then open her eyes, seeing Shadow in front of her. He heart stopped for a moment and she was grateful to Infinite at that moment for making her able to see her Shadow one last time before she let go.

"But don't worry, I can end your suffering...you should be grateful that the last face you see would be of your loved one", Infinite then commanded his creation to attack Amy and she didn't protest.

At this point, the street was abandoned, there was no sound. Only the burning flames and the kicking and punching the fake Shadow was given to Amy's body.

Amy remembers running miles to see where Shadow's body had ended up. After being badly hurt and realizing a Chaos Control, Shadow's super form disappeared in mid-air.

As she was getting beaten, Amy felt the same way when she found Shadow's body in the forest, bleeding and heavy breathing. She was afraid that this might be the end but deep down she had hope that he would continue on.

.

.

.

"I told you I would come back, didn't I?", Shadow felt relieved at the sight of Amy and smirked. He felt her soft hands covering his cheeks, her warm body against his could one and he thought that this might be heaven.

"You always keep your promises, don't you?"

.

.

.

The fake Shadow had know taken Amy by the neck, her feet not touching the ground. It was impossible for her to breath but enjoyed the view. That stupid smirk that Shadow always had.

.

.

.

"You are going to be fine Shadow, Sonic will get here soon and he will take you to the hospital, you-"

"The world is worth saving because you are in it"

Amy wasn't expecting that from him. At least not at that moment, it was at this point that she knew that Shadow's time in this world would come to an end. She let the tears cover her eyes and face and without noticing, Shadow held hand and appreciated the gold ring in her finger. Indeed he was lucky to live this life.

.

.

.

.

Amy tried to breath harder, but the air was not coming through her lungs, she tried to break free from the fake Shadow's grasp but it was impossible. Amy gave her last breath, happy that at least she could be reunited with her love again.

.

.

.

.

.

"Amy, the worlds needs you...please help them"

"There's no reason for me help them!"

"There has to be...I know that people fight over the most trivial things...some people may be selfish...but they are good, they give their best and never give up on their wishes...they always have a reason to be happy...that's why you should help them."

"But, Shadow..."

"Amy, I beg you...do it for them...give them a chance to be happy"

.

.

.

.

.

.

"IF YOU THINK YOU ARE DONE WITH ME, THEN THINK AGAIN!"

It was like an electric shock came into her body, giving her one more chance to live up to the promise she had made to the world and to her Shadow.

"I thought I had killed y-"

Infinite turned around and the second his eyes meet with Amy's green emeralds one, he remembered that shameful day. It was as if Shadow had possessed her, her stance, her fierce eyes, and her new confidence...all of it reminded him of Shadow...of that miserable hedgehog.

"Kill me? I am sorry... but I am not weak", Amy took out her hammer for the first time in two years and walked with self-assurance. She had forgotten this feeling. She was finally at peace, and although the pain may never leave...that pain was a reminder that Shadow was with her...and he would always be.

"...your eyes...this aura...how is it that you have gained such confidence....why are you fighting?, Infinite was in disbelief. He was stunned at how the rose had finally bloomed.

Amy then took him out of his trance as he felt her hammer against his face, making him fall to the ground.

"That's easy......", Amy looked up to the blue sky, feeling the sunlight hit her face as if it was feeling her with hope again. She took one last breath and smirked at infinite.

"I-I promise you...I will keep my promise to the world...and you"

.

.

.

"....I made a promise"
