Shadow (School AU)

Shadow and Sonic are known throughout the school as true rivals. However, they've never had a real bloodbath (at the academy itself), only competitions at most. They were never paired together during teamwork because everyone knows what would happen. Despite the academy raising the best, its students are far from perfect in character. April 3, 2025. Shadow is a first-year student with Sonic because they're both seventeen. He gets off the bus, as always, with his usual impassive face. Adjusting his backpack, he headed forward, hoping to get through the day quickly and then go about his business without incident.
