The Lord of the Emeralds
Prologue
OK well how do you start out a story…? Well I could always explain everything in great detail through another person (or thing's) eyes, which might help. Then again… I don't really want to steal another person's style, so I'll just tell you what's going on before I throw you into the story. *Ahem*
Hedgehogs… what? Oh yes didn't you know? I'm using Sonic the Hedgehog characters, I- fine then, leave if you don't want to hear the story… not like I wanted any Philistines in on this… Anyway, Hedgehogs are the main protagonists in this particular story. No, Sonic is not the main character. He will be in this story, but he won't be going by Sonic (wouldn't you like to know his name) I'll get to him later. Oh by the way… Please stop interrupting me with your mal-contented thoughts. If you don't like it then please review it or just send me hate mail and death threats, but please listen anyway.
Now where was I… ah yes, still trying to finish up my explanation from the 2nd paragraph. Hedgehogs are the main characters in this crossover (Lord of the Rings and Sonic the Hedgehog) along with Tails, Knuckles, Eggman, and a whole mess of characters from Sega (who owns these characters BTW). I cut out a lot of characters from the Lord of the Rings (sorry) but rest assured there will be 3 companions with our emerald-bearing hero.
I cut out a lot of the plot of the LotR because of time and the problem of finding a way to end it. So I might as well start the story before some English teacher sees this and tries to burn it for my run-on sentences.
Without further ado, The Lord of the Emeralds…
Chapter I
So the Lord of the Emeralds starts out with 7 Chaos Emeralds. Three were given to long-lived Hedgehog (and an echidna) Wizards of the council of Bwern (ok I made up a word, sue me). Two were given to the king of WormWood (King of Foxes) and the Emperor of some giant egg shaped city (whoever is handing these out is going to be sorry about that). One was given to the local mayor of a small town (I don't know why, I'm just writing this).
But the seventh was lost in an ancient battle of an ancient war from some distant, old (thought I was going to say ancient huh?) country, which doesn't exist anymore. But another has come up, not the master Emerald like some believe, but an evil one (sounds ominous don't it?).
But away from that I will describe the village in which our hero resides (the same with the mayor that was given the Emerald). Our hero's name is Hobo Baggypants (I just killed the mystery and "coolness" didn't I?) who lives with his Uncle Bob. Hobo was a young Hedgehog of about 14 that longs to get out of the small town. Hobo loved to hear stories about what his uncle (who was a hero in his own time) did in his day.
The people (Animals) of the town were not the adventurous type. In other words they would faint if someone said "wolf". Of course Hobo's uncle went on adventures in his younger days, but that was when the townsfolk decided that adventures were ludicrous things that no one should go on. The main reason for this would be because the townsfolk were jealous of Bob's fame (and fortune). So Hobo (I guess we can call him Hob if it helps stop your laughter) grew up without many friends. Of course he did have his neighbor Hamwise (and boy was he) and his cousins Harry, and Flippin (ok now I'm just running too far with the names). When the time came for Bob's 99th Birthday (which is old for Hedgehogs of this time) the entire town was invited.
(Now I will stop using so many parentheses in this part but when I think you may not comprehend what I am saying then I will speak to you within these)
Hob was racing his friend Hamwise down to the party grounds were the tents and booths were being set up. "How does your uncle afford this kind of party?" Ham puffed as he struggled to keep up with Hob, "I mean I knew he was rich but this is really a lot of money he's spending!" Hob thought about that for a second then replied sadly, "He might not stay here in Vernon's Junction much longer so I guess he'll try to go out with a big bang." Ham smiled, "By bang you mean Feast, right?" "Yeah probably," Hob said with a smirk. As they ran they saw Hob's cousins Harry and Flippin waiting for them.
