It had been a hot and sticky day. I'll never forget the sensation being uncomfortably hot as the exposed skin of my arms and the back of my neck stuck to the fake leather interior of our car, the ac of said ages old car being dead. So we had to have all four windows rolled down, causing what seemed to be a turbulent wind to toss and whip my shoulder length black around all of creation, including my face and the face of my snotty brother sitting beside me.

I remember him whining in displeasure, saying things only an ignorant boy of five would say. I remember wondering to myself if I had ever been as obnoxious as he was when I was his age as I huffed in annoyance and said something which sounded more mature to someone ten years of age. Looking back, I regretted every word.

Mom had looked back at us and said a few words in the sharpest tone only a mother knew, causing us to quit down from our childish bickering. I crossed my arms and looked away, while cruelly wishing that he hadn't existed.

Then it happened. Dad was driving us around a bend and the next thing I know, there is an ear shattering crash. I scream as the world around me spun chaotically, pain attacking every corner of my body while I was tossed around like a rag doll despite the fact that I wore a seatbelt.

Beside me, I hear my brother scream in agony before he is suddenly silenced. It terrified me and My body acted on it's own impulse when I wrapped my arms tightly around his body and held him closely to my own.

I don't know when I lost consciousness, but when I weakly open my eyes, I realize we had stopped spinning, and I faintly hear sirens and the shouts of men approach us. I barely register in my half conscious state that we were hanging upside down like bats inside the totaled car as I glanced at my brother. His eyes were shut and his pale face was covered in dust and red spots.

"Alex...." I wheeze weakly.

"We got four of them in here!" I heard a gruff man's voice shout from outside, "two adults, two children! One of them is awake!"

From the corner of my eye, I saw a man dressed in yellow looking in through the glass free window on my side. "Don't worry, we've got you now!" He spoke assuredly, "you'll be fine!"

I barely register what he's saying as my eyes shut again and I surrender to darkness.

On and off I regain consciousness from there and I'm only to pick up tidbits each time.

All I feel each time is pain yet numbness. I hear a chaotic noise along with a dull rhythmic beeping.

".... The fault was in the truck driver."

"... Only surviver."

"... Never walk again."

I did not completely regain consciousness until a couple days later. But I wished I had never woken up when I learned that I was the sole survivor of a car crash that took the lives of my parents and brother and that I'd never walk again.

I never meant it when I wished he had never existed.

                                                                         
Hi everyone! So, after seeing that my story, Regret, seemed to be doing pretty well, I decided to start a story series.

This story is based on my oc Sarah and  it mostly follows the events of the first season of the show: Sonic X. However, I will put my own little twists to it. 

This is a Shadow The hedgehog and Oc story, but this is strictly a story of friendship and comfort. There are a few reasons for this, one of which being that Sarah is about 12 or 13 in this story.

I will try to keep everyone in character but, since I'm an amateur writer,  I might make them ooc. This is just a prologue, but I will try to have the first chapter out soon. Please enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments.

Helpful criticism is always welcome!
