Stepdaddy: chapter 26

Stepdaddy: chapter 26

Sonic's POV

Almost three hours passed by before Scourge came back. My mother now knew what Scourge had done to an innocent teenage boy, his family and many other families before his. But she was able to hide that she had this knowledge. If she you didn't know that she worked in a famous company, then you would think she was an actress. She wasn't showing even a small hint as to what she knew about him.

"hey, honey. i didn't hear you come in." My mom said with a smile. Scourge completely ignored her. He walked past her and up the stairs. Me and my mom watched him go. His behaviour gave both of us a bad feeling. I didn't hear Shadow mention anything about this behaviour right before he would betray his mother, but that was because he wasn't there himself. So we had a bad feeling that Scourge was planning to put his plan into motion. Again.

Shadow's POV

I didn't know for how long i had been sitting here. All i knew was that it had been a quite some time. I was even completely alone in this cabin. Scourge had already left. I never noticed he did. I held the folders against my chest and walked to the front door of the cabin. I took a deep breath and laid a hand on the door knob. I had to take these folders all the way back to Sonic's house. I couldn't draw attention to the folders since all bypasser would see two yellow folders floating. So i had to use up all the energy i had to try and make sure that everyone could see me if i were to pass by some poeple.

I was probably going to be drained of all energy when i would get back and it might take hours or even days before i would regain it all. But i hoped that i wouldn't lose as much energy. Who knows when i might need it if i got back to Sonic's house.

Sonic's POV

Half an hour passed by. Scourge had not come back down yet and Shadow hadn't returned yet either. I wondered if something had happened to him. And if something did, was he okay? Or maybe i was just being a little too worried. He had pulled a prank on Scourge one time and it drained his energy completely and therefore couldn't get any contact with me untill somewhere late at night. I hoped that he would get back soon. I was having a feeling that we didn't have anymore time left. And my mom was feeling it to.

We were siting on the couch. All of a sudden we heard our doorbell going. Me and my mom looked at eachother. We weren't expecting any visits today. So who could be at our door? My mom stood up and walked to into the hallway. I followed her quietly. She wrapped her hand around the doorknob and i silently watched as the door swung open. We didn't see anything.

I felt a tap on my shoulder. But as i looked behind me there was no one there. But that made it clear to me that Shadow had come back. I breathed a sigh of relief as i knew that he was home again safe and sound. I looked around, but i didn't see him. He must've drained his energy on something. But what?

"well, look at this." I heard my mother's voice say. I looked back at her. She was on her knees on the porch. As she stood up i could see that she was holding something in her hands. "are these the documents he was talking about?" My mom asked and showed me the yellow folders. "i guess." I said. My mom walked back to the dinner room and so did i. My mom placed the documents on the table. She gasped when she flipped them open. We saw the pictures of her, me and my dad. But we also saw pictures of Shadow and his family. "is this the boy?" My mom asked as she reffered to Shadow's picture. I nodded in response. She the took the picture from the paper it was stuck on and looked at it. "he's still so young." She said and her ears flattened against her purple hair.

"and he won't be my youngest victim." A deep vocie said. My mom and me turned and faced Scourge. Our eyes widened in fear as he was holding a gun. Ready to use it at a moment's notice. I couldn't eblieve it. He had been having a hunch that we knew this whole time. And we never knew untill now. When it was to late.
