Hi everyone! I wanted to share this Sonadow Boom one-shot related to the commission I received from the amazing hasello. It relates to the comic featuring Boom Sonic, Boom Shadow, and Boom Shadow plushie. I hope you all like it!
A loud yawn escaped from Sonic’s lips as he scrolled through his emails on his Tails phone. Since his last phone broke from the recent Eggman battle, Tails decided to create an indestructible and modified phone he dubbed the ‘Tails Phone’. Plus, the phone is free and no more recent trips to buy more phones.
“Invite to D.B. Platypus’s role model school,” Sonic gagged at the thought, deleting the email with a swipe. “Come to Meh Burger every Tuesday at 2:00 p.m. for half-priced burgers?” Sonic deleted it. “Definitely leftover newspaper.”
A ding sounded on his phone, indicating he received a new email. As he checked it, he read through the contents. “Fill out a quick survey, and win a free random prize?” He thought about it, shrugged, and clicked on the link. “Free stuff? Huh, why not?”
The next day
Sonic stretched his arms upwards, yawning as he continued to finish his breakfast chili dog. Once he finished and drank a cup of milk, he checked his calendar to see what he and his friends are planning to do today.
“Knock! Knock! Package for Sonic the Hedgehog?”
Sonic looked up, spotting the local mailman Buster the Beagle holding a brown package in front of his house. Curious to see what he got, he rushed over, took the package, and waved goodbye to Buster after thanking him.
Placing the package on the table, Sonic spotted the address. “Cavesville? Is that even a real place?”
Carefully opening the package to make sure it’s not an Eggman trap, a confused expression appeared on his face, pulling out the mystery item that was in the box. In his hands is a small plushie that resembled a dark, broody hedgehog whom he would always clash with. Even the frown stitched on the plush matched his rival’s expression.
“What in the-
“Oh Sonic!”
Sonic quickly hid the plush behind him, hoping Amy didn’t see it. Thankfully, she didn’t notice as she appeared at the entrance of his house. “Good! You’re finally awake!”
“Y-Yeah. Got all my beauty sleep!” Sonic chuckled, hiding his nerves.
Amy beamed. “So you did went to bed early! I’m so proud of you!”
“Y-Yes! That’s what happened!”
“Great! Now that you got your full 8 hours of sleep, it’s time we meet the others at the beach!”
“R-Right! Be there in a jiffy!”
As Amy left to meet the others, Sonic let out a huge sigh of relief. He looked at the plushie, confused on why he was sent a plush toy resembling his grumpy rival. “Guess that website wanted to mess with me. Complete the survey - win a free Shadow the Hedgehog plushie.”
Days had passed by ever since he received the plush toy, and honestly, it wasn’t that bad at all. Sonic wasn’t sure what to do with the plushie at first, and there was no way he would tell his friends about receiving it from an online survey. Amy would scold him for falling for an obvious scam, Tails would freak out from the Shadow plush, Knuckles would be oblivious, and Sticks would ramble about the government spying on them.
But when Sonic held the plush close to him while sleeping in his hammock, his body felt relaxed, and it felt like the plushie was hugging him. He even checked to make sure it wasn’t a bomb or an Eggman trap. Thankfully, it was just a regular toy plush.
“If the real Shadow saw you, he would definitely kill whoever made a toy version of him,” Sonic chuckled, playing with Shadow plushie’s ear. “Though I have to say, you’re so much softer and nicer than him. The real Shadow wouldn’t let anyone close to him, and always comes to pick a fight with me and the team once a week or so.”
Sonic held the plushie, letting it rest on his chest as he relaxed on his hammock. “I still gotta hide you so no one would know that I have you with me. Plus, Mr. Grumpy Pants would be horrified if he knew about me keeping you here.” Sonic eyed the newly built door at the entrance of his house. “And my friends would think I need an intervention, which will never happen after the last time an intervention was hosted.”
He shuddered at the memory, recalling Sticks and her obsession with garbage that ended in disaster. Thankfully, it wasn’t too severe. Shaking his head to get rid of the memory, Sonic yawned and closed his eyes, hugging Shadow plushie close to him as soft snores escaped his lips. However, he had no idea a certain individual was spying on him, glaring daggers at the plush resting on his chest.
In the morning
Sonic looked down at his body in disbelief, seeing his chest covered in bitemarks and hickeys. His brown bandana had been undone, laying on his belly like a blanket. Noticing a sticky note stuck on his forehead, he removed it and read what was written on it.
Pay attention only to me and not this useless toy version of me!
Signed, the Ultimate Lifeform.
P.S. Quit showing off your chest or I won’t be responsible for my actions!
He could feel his face burning up, rereading the note as his mind processed on what it just told him. Shadow broke into his home. He didn’t attack him, but somehow paid particular attention to his chest area. But not only that, he knew about his plush toy? Speaking of his plush toy, did Shadow stole him!?
“Guess he is a jealous, perverted stalker,” Sonic grumbled, tying his brown bandana back on his neck. “But I want my plush back.”
Later in the evening
“What do you mean you won’t give him back!?”
“Why would you want that useless fake toy!? Did you not read my note!?”
“I won him in a survey for free! And I still don’t get why you’re obsessed with my chest?!”
“I do not look like that toy! And it’s your fault for exposing them to me!”
“Dude! Look at my face!” Sonic pointed to himself. “Quit gawking at my chest! And no! They’re not boobs!”
“You know what I’m talking about!” Shadow snarled, preparing to tackle him.
Sonic rolled his eyes. “Whatever! Just give me back my plush!”
“Why would you even want that dumb toy!?”
“Just give me back my plush and I won’t say a word about you breaking into my house!”
Shadow scoffed. “I already eliminated that useless toy.”
“Are you kidding me!?” Sonic threw his hands up in disbelief. “Since when are you jealous of a toy!?”
“Jealous!? Me!?”
Sonic pulled up his brown bandana, revealing the bitemarks and hickeys left on his chest. “Also, we’re establishing boundaries here! No more breaking into my home to bite my chest!”
He ended up tackled to the floor, yelping as he felt Shadow bury his face onto his ample chest. As he yelled at Shadow to get off him while struggling to push him off, he failed to notice his Shadow plush was resting on a shelf hidden in the dark cave, sitting next to a plush toy resembling Sonic.
“At least take me out to dinner first instead of eating my chest!”
“I don’t need food. However, I do need to finish marking every spot on your body so you’ll never forget who you belong to.”
In the end, Sonic never got his plushie back. Instead, his and Shadow’s fight turned into a mating ritual that lasted the entire night until he fell asleep exhausted in Shadow’s arms, covered in love bites and sore from Shadow’s lovemaking.
