Is it true, Maria? Lore: After DR. Eggman was defeated again, Shadow was following DR. Eggman back to his lair, This made Eggman mad and he yelled these words at Shadow: "You are so annoying Shadow, I freed you from your deep slumber, and this is how you repay ME? No wonder Maria died, she got so annoyed by you, you're the reason she's dead!" This caused Shadow to become really sad so he ran away in tears. He hid behind the loop-de-loop in Green Hill, So Tails went looking for him, and when he found him, he wasn't the same, Shadow was no longer Shadow The Hedgehog, now he is Shadow The Cryhog
