By the time Kodi reaches Green Hill Zone, the Flying Pirates were battling with a white plane. Kodi then used a ramp to jump onto the deck of the pirate ship. There, he sees the captain of the ship, a pink bird wearing a pirate suit and a bandanna, and two crewmen, a blue bird and a red bird with swords, eyepatches, and the same pirate getup. They are fighting a blue hedgehog, a black and red hedgehog, a red mole-thing, and a yellow fox piloted the plane. "This is my chance!" Kodi said to himself. He then took off toward the Captain's Quarters, making sure no one spotted him. He walked in and saw two glistening emeralds on the desks. "One blue, one white. Those are it, I can feel it." He picked both up and flashbacks of the emeralds and golden yellow hedgehogs. "Was that me?" he asked. But he didn't have time to decide because just then, everyone stormed into the room. The red bird said "See Captain Valkerie, I told you we missed one." The pink bird replied, "Fine Scar, I suppose you were right. Now you and Wound get him." But before she could finish her sentence, Kodi had already jumped out the window. Kodi noticed he was now in Sunset Hill and kept running and running until he tripped over someone napping. She said "Ow! Watch where you're going!"...
"well... come on! We're going to be late!!" dan yelled. Shadow,which was walking with his eyes closed said " I sense something , something familiar from my past." Just what past was he talking about ? Well, my past starts with the death of my parents . Just thinking about it makes me want to cry ,but Shinobi must never show tears ,not even one. maybe Shadow had the same past like me."Shadow," I said softly."what?" Shadow answered." have you ever had a broken past?" Suddenly,I bit my lip because I was scared what Shadow might say to my naive question. Then,I noticed that Shadow was exposing small tears and whispered. " I have lost my best friend Maria. After 50 years, I've been alone." Shadow said "I know how you feel, my parents died from a suicide mission,and since then I've never'd speak of them until now." I said to Shadow. In my head I thought that Shadow wasn't the only one alone, I was alone,too. Finally, we both have something in common. ( to be continued in part 4)
