'''Lava Shelter''' is one of five possible sixth levels of ''[[Shadow the Hedgehog (game)|Shadow the Hedgehog]]''. In the game's branching path structure, it follows from taking a more neutral, non-aligned path through the previous levels. The stage sees [[Shadow the Hedgehog|Shadow]] infiltrating [[Dr. Eggman]]'s volcano base; lava pits and [[Eggman robots]] are the hazards of the day. The Doctor's magma defenses cause [[grindrail]]s to warp and melt as they are activated, so watch out for routes leading straight into molten rock.

Once Shadow destroys [[Space Colony ARK]]'s defense systems, drives the [[Black Arms]] out of the [[Air Fleet]] or shuts down the Egg Breaker, Shadow believes that he is, in fact, a [[Shadow Android]]. Because of this, Shadow decides to chase down Eggman, and he ends up in Lava Shelter. Omega is trying to chase down the doctor, and Eggman plans to activate the volcano's defense mechanism. Your choice determines the non-canon ending. Enemies are Egg Pawns and Shadow Androids.

Lava Shelter is one of five possible sixth levels of Shadow the Hedgehog. In the game's branching path structure, it follows from taking a more neutral, non-aligned path through the previous levels. The stage sees Shadow infiltrating Dr. Eggman's volcano base; lava pits and Eggman robots are the hazards of the day. The Doctor's magma defenses cause grindrails to warp and melt as they are activated, so watch out for routes leading straight into molten rock.

Camera angle trickery and similar-looking passageways mean it's more than possible for the player to accidently turn themself around in this level and start working backwards without realising it. The Eggman logos on the floor platforms can provide a clue as to the proper direction; if Eggman's head looks upside-down, the player is going the wrong way.

Story

As Shadow seizes the fifth Chaos Emerald, his fractured memory is starting to come together again. Shadow remembers the fatal fall out of orbit after defeating the Finalhazard; waking up in a vat of green goo inside an Eggman base; and row upon row of other Shadows, stored neatly in their own capsules. Combined with Eggman's devious insinuations through the previous course of the game, Shadow comes to a final conclusion: that he is a Shadow Android, an Eggman-made copy of the deceased original Shadow. Determined to seek out his creator for a final reckoning, the hedgehog races towards the Doctor's base.

Circumstances, however, do not make things easy for Shadow. In Iron Jungle we see that - despite pushed to the limit in their war against the Black Arms - G.U.N. has mustered the vast firepower and resources necessary to assault the Eggman Empire. Ivo has gone to ground, quite literally, retreating into a fantasticly supervillain-ish active volcano hideout. Indeed, the only participant of G.U.N.'s attack to even make it inside Lava Shelter is E-123 Omega, who asks Shadow for assistance in breaking through to the fat scientist at the base's core. Alternatively, Shadow can slow the G.U.N. forces down by activating the base's defences, ensuring that his confrontation with Eggman won't be disturbed by those human nuisances.
