I used to live a good life. I used to have friends. I used to be... innocent. I used to view myself as a great hero. I always protected everyone from Dr. Robotnik. He never managed to harm any of them as long as I was around... Until one day. I spent the entire day with my friends Tails and Knuckles. Nowadays, I can't even call them my friends anymore. If they were to witness what I've done, would they pity me? Would they see me as the monster I've become? I've spent all of my time with them that I've ignored the creatures I was born to protect. I decided to see if they needed help, but when I got there... it sickens me to say this... they were all there. I saw them lying on the ground. I approached one of them and I held it up. It has shown no sign of life. I dropped the creature and I was shocked at what was left upon my hands... blood. I wouldn't be afraid nowadays, but back then, I was petrified.
I collapsed to the ground and I started to mourn over the loss of the creatures. They trusted me, I trusted them, and I let them down. As the days passed, I continued to mourn. Tears continued to fall from my eyes until they were replaced with blood. Even today, blood continues to drop from my eyes. My eyes have blackened from the mourning and all that could be seen were red pupils. I heard my "friend" Tails approaching me. He might've witnessed the damage, but he was unaware of what truly happened. I wanted to assure him that I was okay, but something inside me forced me to do something more... drastic. Before I knew it, I tackled the poor fox. He was crying my name out and, I didn't listen. I started to strangle him and I could hear his gagged screams throughout. I kept my hands on that little fox's neck until he couldn't utter a single breath.
The most disturbing thing about what I've done was... I enjoyed it. He was among the very people who caused me to act this way. I then pursued Knuckles. I followed him as he was walking. Soon enough, I just landed right in front of him. I could remember the petrified look on his face. I was smiling as I was about to approach him, but my innocent personality was trying to work its way through. Knuckles tried to help me, but I just knocked him down and like Tails, I choked him. I remember seeing tears roll down his eyes as he was about to finally die. I left his corpse to rot. Finally, I went to the very man who made me suffer, the very man that turned me into a monster... Dr. Robotnik. I lured him into a chamber and he just kept running, but he didn't run fast enough. I caught him and just like that... I killed him. I had been completely enveloped by the very thrill of killling. I cracked a very large smile with the blood still stained on my face.
Throughout the days, I became progressively stronger and more beastly. The thrill of murder has overtaken what was left of my good will. I was no longer the very hero people could count on, I have become the very threat they fear most. I began to realize that there was one girl that was with me before I became this creature. Amy Rose. She counted on me, she believed in me, she cared for me. She was a very young girl and I believed that she could be a true hero. Would she still believe in me even after what I've become? I doubt she would, for now, I roam the world as the ultimate nightmare...
