Info dump time!!!

Alrightly ya'll, I can no longer contain it... I must talk about my new/more informed Sonic x Shadow Generations version of my Black Arms Sonic AUs before having the art finished!!! This new version also features a version where Sonic gets rescued before he can undergo a full transformation!

So the moment I learned that Black Doom wanted to use Shadow's body as a new vessel I knew exactly why Sonic would be kidnapped: As a backup vessel on the slim off chance he fails to defeat Shadow. He'd always planned on having a backup but he wanted something stronger than the other Black Arms that was suitable for his power... and then he saw Shadow's fight against Sonic and the answer became clear. What better body to use as a backup vessel than one as powerful than the blue hedgehog? It even came with the additional perk of being a friend of Shadow's- and that meant he wouldn't kill him.

It's not too hard to obtain him. He definitely puts up a fight but the surprise attack, the sheer number of Black Arms summoned, and a little paralyzing gas is all it takes to win the fight. Tails is left alone upon the completion of the objective. They didn't have time to deal with him if they wanted to prepare Sonic as a vessel in time for Black Doom's fight against Shadow.

They knock him out, put him in a weird alien pod on the Black comet, and inject him with Black Doom's blood (and some extra Black Arms DNA in general) since it was implied that Shadow having his blood would eventually allow him to take over his body. Sonic's body mutates while he's asleep and eventually his body is deemed worthy.

Then, once Shadow inevitably defeats Black Doom, he leaves him with an ominous message and wills his conscious into Sonic. And Sonic, asleep and mind having numbed down, is unable to resist. It's not long before he confronts Shadow a second time, finding him in the middle of reassuring a very panicked Tails.

A fight naturally ensues, both mobians horrified by the confirmation that Black Doom was possessing Sonic, and eventually they manage to restrain him- though I haven't got the exact details down about how they do it. What I do know however is that once they restrain him they figure the best possible chance they have at saving Sonic is to destroy the Time Eater so that Black Doom is forced back into his own time. It works, Sonic wakes up in control of himself, but naturally there's consequences. He's freaked out about the changes to his body (though Tails is working on a way to fix it as best as he can) and there's unforeseen consequences.

After having his mind numbed, his mental state is... unwell. Words are harder to string together, his memories are fuzzy- though not completely gone, and he quickly finds out that he can't eat normal food, which eventually reaches a head where in a hunger fueled daze he kills and eats someone.

I'm not entirely sure how things go from there (I'll have to think on it more) but uh... I think we can all agree it's not good...
