Prologue
Just another day
As usual it was a very peaceful day in Mobius. There were people walking happily along the streets of Knothole Village and kids running to school. Ever since Sonic has destroyed Dr. Eggman, an evil scientist who nearly dominated Mobius, and put Snively behind bars for five years, Mobius has been in peace for three years straight. There were no crimes at all. A certain 12-year-old, black colored, with white tips on his tails, kitsune called Marco Thompson has been going on adventures and soon joined S-96 Maria, a human-Cyborg who was captured by Eggman and robotized from the inside. Marco and Maria has been going on adventures the past two years and decided to go back to Knothole for a settled place. Today, Marco was going to school and finish his studies for good. When he walked inside, he saw an orange kitsune that looked very familiar to him.
"Hey are you Tails?" Marco asked.
Miles "Tails" Prower turned around to face Marco.
"Yup, that's me," he replied.
"Wow, I've heard a lot about you," Marco said, "You was the one who inspired me to go on adventures."
"Well, I'm glad I did,"
"I've also heard you was the one who stopped Snively,"
"I didn't do it alone,"
"Cool, so can we like…hang out or something?"
"Maybe after school,"
Tails walked away and headed for class. Marco noticed he was late for class when the bell rang.
After school, Tails was walking towards Castle Acorn, where obviously the freedom fighters stayed at, but since Snively's defeat, the freedom fighters went their separate ways. When Tails got there, he spoke out.
"Okay, you can come out now," he said.
Marco emerged from the boulders near the palace where Princess Sally lived.
"How did you know?" Marco asked.
"You smelled bad," Tails replied.
"Hey!" Marco shouted.
Tails and Marco walked in the palace. When they got inside, Marco was shocked about what he saw. The area was huge about 100 feet high and 100 feet wide. There were a lot of chairs and pictures. There were also two hallways that could take hours to travel.
"Wow," was all Marco can say.
"Cool huh?" Tails said.
Marco and Tails took the hallway to the left and went upstairs. When, they got to the top of the stairs, they went to a bedroom, and once again Marco was amazed to see the blue blur, Sonic the Hedgehog.
"Wow," Marco said in awe, "Sonic the Hedgehog…in the flesh."
Sonic stood up from his bed and greeted Tails, while Marco stood there just shocked.
"And who is he?" Sonic asked, pointing to Marco.
"Actually, I never got his name," Tails said before he faced Marco, "What's your name?"
Marco got out of his shock and spoke, "My name is Marco Thompson, an explorer who fights evil with his Hero Sword."
"Cool," Sonic said.
Marco was still in shock but he tried to control himself. The door open and Princess Sally Acorn appeared.
"Princess Sally!" Marco shouted before bowing.
"Please don't do that, I got tired of it a long time ago," Sally said.
Marco stood straight, "Sorry."
"No need to apologize, Sonic we need you in the briefing room, there's something urgent," Sally said.
"I'm all over it." Sonic said before following Sally to the briefing room.
"I guess since Sonic is in the briefing room with Sally, I guess I can give you a tour," Tails said.
"I would like that," Marco said.
Tails showed Marco around the palace.
Meanwhile, Sonic and Sally showed up at the briefing room and also saw Rotor.
"Rotor?" Sonic said, "I thought you'd be gone making the world's greatest finishing pole by now."
"Ha, ha, very funny." Rotor said.
"Cool it guys," Sally said, "I both called you here because of an urgent situation."
"What is it?" Sonic asked.
A big screen came to life and was showing a map with a red dot.
"You see this red dot?" Sally asked.
"Yeah, and?" Sonic said.
"This dot indicates something powerful over there, we don't know if its something good, or evil and we don't want it to be evil," Sally said, "I want you guys to check out the area, salvage the item, and report back here."
"One question," Sonic asked, "why is Rotor coming with me?"
"If the item is heavy, then you'll need some help carrying it."
"Why not send Bunnie?"
"I can't seem to contact her."
"Okay…so where is the item located at?"
"It's somewhere within the Mystic Caves."
"The Mystic Caves?" Rotor said, "That will be a one day drive if we take the jeep!"
"Better safe than sorry." Sally said.
"Okay, I'll go prep the jeep, Rotor, you go and get your tools just in case we have engine problems," Sonic said.
"I'm on it," Rotor said as he walked out the door.
Sonic was about to dash off until Sally stopped him.
"Sal, whats up?" Sonic asked.
"Sonic, I want you to be careful, I got a bad feeling about this," Sally said.
"Don't sweat it Sally, I'll be okay."
Sonic dashed off, going to prep the jeep.
While that was going on, Marco and Tails was in the kitchen and Tails was cooking omelets.
"I can't wait to taste your omelets," Marco said.
"Once you take a bite out of these, it'll feel like you died and gone to heaven," Tails said still cooking.
"Is that a good thing?" Marco asked.
Before Tails could reply, Rotor came inside and was looking for his tools.
"Now where did I put that hammer?" Rotor asked to himself.
"Hey Rotor, long time no see," Tails said.
"Hey Tails, have you seen my hammer?" Rotor asked.
"Ummm…check the bottom cabinet," Tails said as he pointed at the bottom cabinet.
Rotor looked at the bottom cabinet and found his hammer.
"There you are!" Rotor said, "Thanks Tails, it was nice seeing you again."
Rotor walked away.
"Who was he?' Marco asked.
"That was Rotor Walrus, he's the mechanical guy of the group," Tails said.
"Cool, is he good?"
"Yeah…hey, the omelets are done."
Sonic dashed in.
"Hey Tails," he said, "Rotor and I have a mission, you mind keeping things in check while I'm gone?"
"Sure, Marco can help too," Tails replied.
"Yeah!" Marco shouted.
Sonic and Tails stared at Marco.
"Oops," Marco said.
"Anyways, we should be back in two days because we're going to the Mystic Caves," Sonic said.
"Hey, I've been there before," Marco said.
"That's nice," Sonic said.
Tails noticed the omelets were burning since he forgot to turn off the stove.
"Uh-oh," he said turning off the stove.
The omelets were blackened, too overcooked, Tails threw the food in the trash.
"Oh well, better luck next time," Marco said.
"Well, look at the time," Sonic said, "I better go."
Sonic sped off to the jeep.
Meanwhile, Rotor finally got all his tools and he walked to the fully prepped jeep. The jeep has a fairly strong armor; it has a 50mm chain gun shooting off 100 bullets per round. Its dark green color gives it an advantage in the forest since it blends in with it.
Sonic came just before Rotor got in the passenger's seat.
"Ready to go?" Rotor asked.
"Yeah, let's hit it!" Sonic said.
Sonic jumped in the driver's seat and drove off the Mystic Caves.
