<i>Shadow gazes at Lappland disapprovingly.</i> &quot;Tch, your wit serves you none here. This is a place of strength.&quot; <i>He then teleports onto the spectator stands using Chaos Snap, witnessing the battle unfold with vague interest.</i> &quot;Let me know when someone worth my time arrives.&quot;

<i>Wasting no time, Shadow heads straight to the male bathroom, surveying for anything suspicious on the way. Assuming he's uninterupted, he would enter the bathroom and look for anyone he could interrogate.</i>

&quot;Heh, so that's it then.&quot; <i>Shadow then drops down to the room below, landing on his feet and turning to face the science club president.</i> &quot;I'm the ultimate lifeform, Shadow The Hedgehog. You can either give that weapon to me and point me in the direction of the enemy, or lead the way yourself. Choice is your's.&quot;

&quot;Heh, no one tells me what to do. I doubt you've ever even fired a gun to begin with.&quot; <i>Shadow starts running past Nanaka, his heelies building up momentum and causing him to appear as nothing but a black blur. Rather then walk down the stairs to the first floor, he would merely leap over them entirely and jump dash just before he lands to land safely on his feet. He then looks for the entrance to the basement, which he would waste no time in running straight to should he see it. If it was not immediately within his sight, he would merely stand in place and wait. </i>

&quot;Tch, typical.&quot; <i>Shadow scoffs, seemingly annoyed as he uses his chaos snap to teleport up to the top of the stall, holding onto the side opposite the occupied stall and climbing to stand on top of it. He would then search the ceiling for a vent he could climb into, doing so and determining any routes he could take in said manner.</i>

<i>A black hedgehog approaches the group, glancing towards the principle from behind the crowd.</i> &quot;So, I hear there are some mysterious incidents occuring here. Let me make this clear, i'm here to find my own answers and I won't tolerate anyone getting in my way.&quot; <i>He then walks past the group, approaching the entrance to the school and casually entering awhile after the principal, scanning the corridors before musing to himself.</i> &quot;Heh. Not the kind of place i'd expect to do a mission. So be it.&quot;

<i>Shadow would enter the stall right next to the occupied one, sitting down on the toilet and raising his feet so they may not be visible. He then speaks loudly so the kid in the other stall may hear him. </i> &quot;So how about these disappearences? Pretty scary, don't you think?&quot;

&quot;I better keep track of where all the forks lead.&quot; <i>After noting this, Shadow heads down the left path while looking for openings which he would use to easedrop on any active conversations. </i>

<i>Shadow nods, remaining silent as he closely listens for the student's response to Nanaka's pressing statements.</i> &quot;(Looks like I came the right way.)&quot;

&quot;I'll finish this before any of you even take the first step.&quot; <i>Shadow then rushes towards the door to the basement, jumping up and kicking it open without hesitation. If there was a rail, he would grind down it. Otherwise, he would simply use a spin charge to blast over the staircase.</i>
