"There is no light without shadow, and there is no happiness without pain"
This is the fox Sonic knew, a person so happy and cheerful it blinded him of cruel nostalgia, almost mocking him of something he used to have. Something precious, something you can only have once. And Nine never got to savor it, as it was taken by the cruel fists and harsh oppression of life. He turned jaded, covering the last purity he had under a shield of snark and hatred for the world he was forced to grow in.
This fox, who wore his tails proudly, letting them grow, never hiding them in a sleek metal cocoon, smiled a smile Nine longed to have again, their blue eyes shimmering with wonder as they gazed upon him, as if he was worth their curiosity, of such innocent curiosity.
Nine swallowed an odd lump in their throat, feeling that pain in his chest. And he hated it. All of that cheerfulness, that sweetness, that gentle, naive soul the fluffy fox gave the world when Nine never had a chance; he loathed all of it.
But this was the only way to even be in the same world as Sonic, this is the only way he can be with Sonic, the only way he can be alive. So he tolerated the fox. He wasn't buddy-buddy with him, but he tried not to be hostile or rude. He stayed aloof, despite wanting company so bad, he stayed snarky, no matter how much it made him want to kick himself, he stayed strong and fierce, because he didn't deserve comfort that was meant for someone else.
He stayed broken and in secret sorrow, because it's the only way to feel that he's his own person; because he's just the shadow of someone who's fixed and happy.
"When you fight you are like the light.
You shine so bright that we can't do anything but look.
And we see how you're born, and we see how you grow, and we see how you die.
But we fight like the shadows.
You never pay us attention even when you know we are there.
We never seem to have won nor do we seem to be defeated. We never seem to have gain nor lose anything.
And so you don't look at us, and so you forget about us.
And it is only in your final moments, when you see how we remain the same while you are dying that you realise. We've won, we've survived, we are the last ones standing."
I just wanted to write something about Danny and Airis so here
Airis watch him fight the robbers from the roof top. She made she to stay just out of range of his ghost sense. Airis narrowed her eyes as she watched Batman approach him, not liking what his body language was telling her.
Tilting her head she watched as Batman put a hand on his shoulder and tell him he did a good job. Airis smiled as she watched Danny light up like a star, however, a frown made its way onto her face as she remembered why she was here watching over Danny.
Airis slowly opened her eyes and looked around confused. Where was she? The last thing she remembered was.....her dad shoving her into all the chemicals he experimented with + some ectoplasm. Slow realization came to her as she looked around at the ghost zone she knew she was in.
She crumpled to the ground when a pang went through her chest, no, her core, yeah that's what they were called. It felt like something was tugging at her core, Airis tried to ignore it only for a pang of fear to zip through her, that got her attention.
Shooting off of the floating island chunk she was on she flew through the ghost zone at top speed following the tug. Activating her invisibility she shot through a portal that opened in front of her. Coming out on the other side she saw a silver and green van chasing a younge ghost boy.
Airis growled as something in her core snapped and yelled to protect, protect, protect. The ghost boy stopped as he was cornered by the van before two people in, jumpsuits? Jumped out and pointed guns at him. Dropping her invisibility she landed right in front of the ghost boy.
She watched in amusement as the two people with guns looked around confused when she landed stirring up a dust cloud. Airis spread her wings and roared, dispursing the dust cloud in an instant. Airis huffed out a breath when she was done and crouched so that most of her was protecting the ghost boy.
Airis watched with satisfaction as all the people grew expressions of fear and shock. Glancing at the boy she saw that he had a similar expression but he also had relief in his eyes. Quickly Airis grabbed the ghost boy by his scruff in her mouth and took off in a direction her core tugged her in.
She smiled at the memory of how she met Danny, shortly after that she brought him here and they talked, but Airis told him she had to go and explore the world since she was only a new ghost. Danny had understood and told her to come back when she was done.
Now that she was done, it had been only a year and she could she that Danny was doing great. Her happy thoughts were quickly interrupted when she saw someone with a knife in their hand sneaking up on Danny and Batman, looking at Danny.
She growled and sent a blue ectoblast from her mouth at him, hitting him right in the crest, sending him back into a wall. Both Danny and Batman snapped their heads in her direction. Airis only grinned at Danny and spread her wings, reared her head back and roared.
Danny cheered in excitement when she roared and sent out a small ghostly wail in response to her roar. They both shot into the air and circled each other, as they stopped and hovered in front of the moon Airis pulled Danny to her chest and nuzzled his hair.
No one would ever hurt someone in her hoared. Not on her watch.
Alexa, play "Are we Still Friends".
Just a small preview for a story I'm currently on the works. Just some OC drama.

Iven's chest was restless, finally catching a breath. The ocean was loud in his ears, waves crashing into his legs.
"So, are we still friends?", Leo sat besides his friends body, pressing into the wounds that were inflicted by his own blades.
"What do you think Leo? You think we can be friends after this? The number of war crimes that were caused by your own hands? People are dying from your army".
Iven slowly got up and picked up his sword, facing Leo, "Get up, we are going back to Mars and you'll be facing your consequences".
"Iven, why are you crying?"
Iven looked at his childhood best friend, this is what it came to, this was the end of the chapter.
"Iven you can kill me now, But things won't change. Remember what I said? This world is in a loop"
"So what is thi? The end of time?"
Leo shocked his head, "No, in fact time ended long ago, that's why everything repeats. There is nothing to move foward".
"Did you know you've killed me 879 times now? Every time I wake up we are back home, in the fields thinking about the future and how to get off that rusted planet"
"I can fix this, that is what I was born to do. To fix this, to end your rule, and give everyone in the universe a better chance". Iven spoke sternly, praying to whatever God was out there that this wasn't the end, that his dreams were right, he was the chosen one.
"Iven, you can't. We've had this conversation before, you never fix anything soon I'll die and this universe ends. Iven, love. I tried being the hero, I spend hundreds of years trying to fix this loop. In some universes, you are the villain, we are the villain, or we are the Heroes. There is no way to fix this".
Ivens hands shook, his sword dropping by his side, Leo cupped his cheeks and looked at him with soft eyes, "Now Iven, the clock is ticking how do you want to end it this time? You can stab me again, and again, but it's okay," Leo hugged Iven's body. "I'll always forgive you".
