Author's Note
Hello everyone! TheSavageMan100 is back again, and this time, I've decided to make a story on the world's fastest hedgehog based on Injustice: Gods Among Us. It will take place on the Archie Comics community (and I'm not talking about the Super Genesis Wave Storyline), and each Sonic character would be given roles considerably. Before I would begin the story, I'd like to give a shoutout to my old friend Joel at high school for inspiring me to make this fanstory, and for being a good support to some of my works.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog, Archie Comics, Sega, or DC. All rights belongs to their respective owners.

And now, on with the show!

SONIC INJUSTICE: Gods Among Mobius

Today should've been an ordinary day at Mobius. An ordinary day when the innocent, peace-loving Mobians would come and go as they please. An ordinary day when a super-villain or a giant robot attacked and the Freedom Fighters or some other hero would come and save the day. The people of Mobius always assumed that nothing bad would come to them as a result of Nicole's nanites or some other heroic stuff like that, and that they had nothing to fear from any kind of threat.

Today was the day that everything changed.

At 5:37 P.M., a giant flash of light enveloped New Mobotropolis. The entire city was vaporized, destroyed in a nuclear explosion. Countless millions were killed, and the names were still coming in.

Mina Mongoose. Ash Mongoose. Rotor Walrus. Sir Charles Hedgehog. Jules Hedgehog. Bernadette Hedgehog. The names kept pouring. Even the Council of Acorn, the ruling governmental body, was counted among the dead.

"New Mobotropolis Destroyed: Millions Dead," this was the title of the shocking news that appeared in every media channel reporting the troublesome news of the destruction of the once peaceful and prosperous city. As the news spreads like wildfire, other neighboring cities seemed to have a greater grieving moment. Rescue workers, G.U.N. soldiers, along with the help of the Freedom Fighters and Chaotix— what's left of them— attempted to pull whoever still lives under the wreckage.

But in the gathering of all these heroes, only one was missing.


G.U.N. Headquarters
Interrogation Room

Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik felt a white-gloved fist smash his face as he was forced down into a chair. Despite a hint of broken glasses and a soft bruise in his face, the evil doctor sported a sinister smile. It was too late to undo the damage he had caused. His plan had gone perfectly.

The figure of Shadow the Hedgehog leaned on the desk, demanding answers from Eggman, "The nuke, Doctor! Where'd you get it?"

"What, you want one as well, Shadow?" Eggman jeered. "Copy-hog…"

Shadow was furious for two reasons. One was that Dr. Eggman had finally managed to commit genocide unlike anything Mobius had seen before since the Great War. But also equally upsetting was the cause of this had been at the hands of someone whom Shadow had felt was a true rival and friend as Rogue and Omega were to him.

"You made him murder the Princess, Doctor," Shadow gritted his teeth. "You made him murder his unborn children and took his home away from him. Why would you make him do such a thing?!" He asked angrily, slamming his fists down on the desk, making Eggman laugh amusingly.

"Plain and simple," Eggman answered. "I did it to prove a point."

"This has always been between you and me!" Shadow shouted, grabbing Eggman by his jacket. "Why would you do this to him?! WHY?!"

"I wanted to win, Shadow," Eggman explained. "Every time Sonic and I crossed paths, he always defeated me. Every plan, every scheme, every step of the way— ruined! He was too strong and too fast for me to break. But his spirit… ah! Sonic was easy to manipulate, to crush his spirit, to crush his dreams. That's why I took the Princess and implanted the trigger to that warhead I stole. And with the Krudzu Hybrid Hydra's hallucinogenic gas, I nullified his senses to make him think he was fighting that plant monster the whole time. To think he murdered his own wife and unborn children!" He then laughed, "Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho! That meddlesome hedgehog finally knows what true pain feels like! He knows the harsh reality of the world, as you once did. It won't be long before Sonic will face his greatest downfall— not by my hand— but ironically, his." He laughed again.

Eggman stopped laughing to see Shadow still looking confident. He thought Sonic would recover from this pain, but… "What do you think it'll do to him, Shadow? You were created by my grandfather knowing the world was broken, but Sonic was optimistic. He was naïve to believe the world was right as long as he was in it. Now that he's murdered the people closest to him, how do you think he'll react now?"

"It won't work, Doctor!" Shadow rejected. "Sonic will grieve, yes, but he won't break. He'll remain the same brave blue hedgehog I've seen for a while now."

"Really?" Eggman smirked, hearing the sounds of G.U.N. soldiers screaming and footsteps quickly approaching the cell they're in. "Let's put that to the test, shall we?"

With that, the door behind Eggman bursts open into a crack, and in stepped the figure of Sonic the Hedgehog. Shadow could see his blue counterpart's fists clenched tight together, a vicious glare appearing on his face, directly at Eggman.

"Get away from him," Sonic demanded, a tone of pure anger pulsed his voice.

"I'm handling this," Shadow told him.

Sonic slowly approached his arch-nemesis who leaned with one elbow on the table to hold his head up. Then, by a snap of the twig, Sonic tossed the table away into a wall. With just as much speed, Sonic grabbed Eggman by the neck and slammed him into the opposite wall.

"YOU DRUGGED ME! MADE ME..." Sonic screamed, before his head hung to the ground, muttering despairingly, "Sally… My kids…"

This wasn't supposed to happen. It was supposed to be the happiest day of his life. After many hard fought battles against Dr. Eggman and other powerful villains, Sonic asked Sally Acorn, who had always been a potential love interest during their Freedom Fighter years, to marry him, to which she happily accepted. Both hedgehog and squirrel wed in a ceremony that set New Mobotropolis in a festive mood, the same way Bunnie and Antoine wed at Knothole.

A few months later, Sonic had discovered that his new wife was pregnant with three children. At any rate, this could signify the birth of new heirs to the throne of the Republic of Acorn. Sonic and Sally were to be king and queen, and the three newborn children would be princes or princesses. Tragically, that ideal dream was never to be.

The pregnant Sally was kidnapped and experimented on by Dr. Eggman and his assistant nephew, Snively. Sonic found her with the help of his fellow Freedom Fighters in the Death Egg Mk. II, only to find the Krudzu Hybrid Hydra waiting for him. Desperate to defend his family, Sonic tackled the Hydra out of the blimp, repeatedly beating the monster as they fell down to Station Square below. The hedgehog Spin Dashed with all his might to make sure the Hydra could be easily subdued.

It was only when they landed on top of the skyscraper that Sonic realized he had been tricked.

He hadn't been fighting the Hydra at all.

Instead of the villainous plant monster, it was the broken, bleeding, and dying body of Sally Acorn that Sonic stood over. One minute, his senses quickly recovered to discover Sally and her unborn children had died. And the next, he could see the blast had gone off from New Mobotropolis. His senses were on fire, but he didn't hear any of it. Not when he carried Sally's dead body outside his home city. Not when Tails, Knuckles, or Amy attempted to comfort him. Not when he learned that Dr. Eggman had been taken in to G.U.N. Headquarters, facing interrogation. Not when he took off instantly to the protest of his fellow Freedom Fighters.

All he could think of was that Eggman had done this. If Sonic had acted sooner, he might've had a chance saved everyone.

"First Knothole, now New Mobotropolis," Eggman smirked, patting Sonic's shoulder. "People you love tend to blow up, don't they?"

Sonic growled and raised a fist to punch his hated enemy in the face.

"Sonic, don't!" Shadow protested.

Sonic punched the wall just inches away from Eggman's face, creating a small crack.

"That's the only thing I like about you, Sonic," Eggman chuckled. "You're much more gullible than your little friends were."

Sonic's anger fueled him again as he threw Eggman into the opposite wall where the table stood, breaking it in two. The doctor slowly recovered from the pain, albeit with a lot of pain in his back.

"You think you can have a family," Eggman pointed out. "That locking me up will magically reform me. And they'll be safe." He pulled his chair back up and sat back down, "So big, yet so dumb." He chuckled amidst an approaching Sonic, "Now run along with what's left of your band so I can break out of here. I've got lots of planning to do to top this. Run along… Run for the rest of your life… and never escape the humiliation of today."

Sonic had finally taken all he could from the villainous doctor. He already destroyed so much, killed so many of Sonic's closest friends and family. But he could not tolerate this any longer; his anger had reached its maximum point. He was not willing to let Eggman do this to him or anybody else again. There was only one way to settle this once and for all, not caring of the consequences it will bring.

With a growl, Sonic took Eggman by the neck and lifted him, ready to do what was necessary to save lives.

"That's enough!" Shadow yelled. He stepped up to stop his blue counterpart, but Sonic flung him back with the swipe of a hand. He didn't want anyone getting in his way. Not now.

"I know it's soon…" Eggman wheezed. "But… you think you'll ever love again? Maybe… Maybe you won't end up killing your next family…"

Sonic's eyes glinted with rage. This was the point of no return. The hero of Mobius had made his decision in the name of the greater good.

Shadow looked up just in time to see Sonic lift Eggman up in the air and curl into a Spin Dash that jumped upward and struck Eggman's round body. The Spin Dash was so deadly on impact; Eggman's body was split in half. His decapitated body splattered on the floor, blood gushing from where the halves stood.

The last thing Shadow heard from Eggman was a dominant, maniacal laugh, with a mixture of pain and insanity in his voice.

Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik was dead. The tyrant who ruled Mobius with an iron fist was no more.

And worst of all, Shadow knew that Eggman's death was only the beginning.


After Dr. Eggman's death, Sonic secluded himself in an apartment in Station Square, reflecting on his decision for two weeks. Meanwhile, the United Federation decided that the Freedom Fighters were no longer able to keep the peace they worked so hard to do. The group was dismantled as the President turned to Sonic for help, deciding that since he had been personally involved with New Mobotropolis's destruction, this could lead to a greater chance of redemption.

Unfortunately, upon hearing of an attack by remnants of the Dark Egg Legion, Sonic finally left the confines of his temporary residence and, against the rules of the United Federation, captured the President and dethroned him personally. The remnants of the Freedom Fighters, deciding this would be the time to support the one who had lost his family, helped Sonic prepare a speech in which he accepted his position as High Councilor of a new peacekeeping regime known as the One-Planet Government.

This new governmental body began forcing various nations to never start a war again, and utilized their newly formed military power to lead a wholesale eradication of crime throughout the planet. Once they had rendered the planet's military resources under their control, the Regime took over nations, oil fields, oceans, and other energy producing resources, including the Chaos Emeralds and the Space Colony ARK.

Envisioning the creation of a mass superpower and the spread of a world free of crime and corruption was beyond anything the population ever dreamed, but not for the One-Planet Government. It had proven itself a new world order, surpassing other superpowers the likes of the United Federation, the Republic of Acorn, and the Eggman Empire in any regard. A new global economy was born, and a glorious new hour was at hand.

And because the One-Planet Government is so tremendous in power, former villains were compelled to join their ranks such as the Dark Egg Legion and the Destructix. Their reasons behind joining the Regime were the promised reciprocations and payment of their talents, and they wanted to have influence in the government. Additionally, they gained the support of one of Mobius's veteran scientists, Dr. Finitevus, who served as the One-Planet Government's chief funder and close friend/role model to Sonic.

However, there were those who knew that the One-Planet Government and its High Councilor were unstable. They feared it to be a far greater evil— even worse than Dr. Eggman. The Regime continued its pursuit to consolidate its power by executing those the government deemed as its enemies, conducting bizarre experiments, and capturing opposing rebellions. Indeed, they saw corruption and evil everywhere where there are none. The One-Planet Government promised all of Mobius they would promote peace and security for all, but in reality, they only wish to promote themselves, and they will use terror to achieve their aims for world peace— they wish to control the people by inspiring fear.

That is where the dark nature of the One-Planet Government was revealed— the death of Dr. Eggman traded one tyrant for another. Sonic the Hedgehog became the opposite of the side he belonged to, became what he was fighting— a dictator.

And thus, with the help of Commander Abraham Tower, Shadow formed a small resistance movement comprising of soldiers from the disbanded G.U.N. organization and a small cadre of Freedom Fighters who did not see Sonic's reign as a force for good. The team originally consisted of Shadow, Rouge the Bat, E-123 Omega, Espio the Chameleon, Shard the Metal, Leeta Wolf, Lyco Wolf, and Larry Lynx.

One day, the resistance learned of the One-Planet Government's latest activity. To ensure the Regime stayed in power, Sonic took all seven Chaos Emeralds and absorbed their power following a secret experiment. The progress was slow and agonizing, but the Chaos Emeralds' energy successfully fused with his cells, and his connectivity with the Chaos Force is able to withstand the side-effects. No longer able to transform into Super Sonic, he is free to control the Chaos Force to its full extent.

Another batch of recent activity is the creation of the Regime's latest weapon: an endurance pill enhanced by Chaos Energy that boosts the user in strength and gives half the speed, power, and agility of Sonic's powers. Shadow's team was split in two: Abraham, Shard, and Omega would lead a team of G.U.N. agents into battle as a distraction, while Shadow, Espio, Rouge, Leeta, Lyco, and Larry would mount a break-in to the One-Planet Government's headquarters and steal the endurance pill.

The pill was successively retrieved, but only at a great cost. Shard was revealed to be a double-agent working for the Regime, who then led Abraham's squad into a trap. The G.U.N. agents were quickly executed, including Abraham and Omega. The High Councilor was made aware of this and ordered his forces to set up defenses throughout the One-Planet Government's headquarters. When Shadow and his team remained, Espio originally attempted to hit Sonic with a poison kunai, but the hedgehog's senses had improved following his ruthless descent to madness, and he managed to deflect the kunai into one of his closest associates' arms by mistake.

Not out for blood, Sonic led a personal trek to hunt the resistance down. Espio was able to toss the pill to Shadow, who used Chaos Control to escape. Rouge, Espio, Leeta, Lyco, and Larry stayed behind to stall for time, only to suffer Sonic's wrath. Larry was killed by an experimental laser from an incoming Miles "Tails" Prower, Lyco and Leeta were choked and suffocated by Knuckles the Echidna, and Espio was beaten to death by Sonic. The only one spared was Rouge, who was offered a position in the One-Planet Government with the promise of riches and power beyond imagining. Rouge willingly accepted, unable to resist her obsession for treasure.

Sensing the desperation of the resistance, Tails' uncle Merlin Prower elected to stall Sonic and calm the former hero, whilst Shadow and the remaining G.U.N. agents relocated to G.U.N.'s abandoned headquarters. It was a simple matter for the resistance to scan and upload the pill so they would manufacture more.

When Merlin spoke to Sonic, he summoned the souls of his deceased mother, father, and uncle, who tried to convince him that what he did was wrong. But the pleas of his parents' specters fell on deaf ears. All Sonic took away was that Shadow led them to his death because he was too stubborn to change. Instead, he continued his pursuit for Shadow, who was currently uploading the pill for analysis…


G.U.N. Headquarters

Shadow was thankful for times like this when some technology was easy to understand. Commander Abraham had shown him how to use the synthesizer before they left for the mission. It had cost the lives of his closest friends— Rouge, Omega, Espio… no. Shadow had to focus on the task at hand. The loss of friends no longer concerns him. He had to complete the synthesizer. Merlin wasn't able to hold Sonic for long; he was no longer the heroic hedgehog they knew him to be anymore.

Uploading the code, Shadow watched at the progress bar appeared on one of the nearby monitors. He held his breath, praying this would not take long. Suddenly, on another monitor, a blue outline of a figure appeared on the screen.

"He's coming!" A voice screamed, originating from one of the G.U.N. agents.

Shadow looked back to the loading screen. Only 6% of the upload was complete. "I can't leave," he muttered. "It's not finished yet."

"HE'S COMING!" The voice repeated loudly.

"No," Shadow corrected as he heard a familiar blue blur of wind blowing through his fur. "He's already here."

Sonic disdainfully looked at Shadow, who is still focused on the monitor. Sonic was unaware of the screen showing the upload sign, and Shadow had to keep it that way so that the resistance could get the formula.

"Can I help you?" Shadow asked.

"I had a little chat with those G.U.N. agents earlier today," Sonic replied. "Wanted to make sure they won't be churning out any more stunts with you." He paused to let this sink in, "They won't be."

Shadow's eyes silently widened as his worst fears were realized. The G.U.N. agents were all dead.

Sonic continued, "All these years, I've put away all the bad guys in this world. But I left that worthless cause. Imagine me, the hypocrite who believes he's doing the right thing by promoting a world that wasn't perfect to begin with, yet the real evils are still running loose. All my life, I thought all was right with the world. Apparently…" His voice grew vicious, "I was wrong! No matter what we do, evil always has to find its way every time!"

The screen read 18% completed.

"You're delusional, Sonic," Shadow growled under his breath.

At lightning speed, Sonic grabbed Shadow by the neck, lifting him up. "Be careful how you talk to me," he gritted his teeth. "I've done more for this world than you ever have. While you run around screaming and hacking at things with guns and bombs, I found a solution. I created a world free of crime, free of hunger, free of disease. And it's not hard for everyone to follow me, if you weren't so thick about it."

"To do what, exactly?" Shadow scoffed. "To force people into living under your rule?"

"I'm doing this for peace," Sonic answered, no longing gritting his teeth, but still using a serious tone to his voice. "But I'm nothing like Eggman. This world needs a savior, and that savior is me. Without me, there will be no peace and everything would fall apart. If I can't do it, no one will."

"Then why have you followed me here?" Shadow asked coldly.

"I'm here to put an end to this. I'm giving you a no-expense trip to one of my re-educational camps," Sonic offered. "If you behave like the other villains, I'll consider letting you go. Better yet, I'll let you join me."

Shadow scoffed again, "If you were here to end this, you would've killed me already. You could've used your new technology to launch a missile at me, or have Tails create something. If you were going to end this, you wouldn't need to be here."

"And why would I want to kill you?" Sonic asked severely.

"Because you stain your hands with blood," Shadow spat back. "The blood of your own friends! The blood of Espio the Chameleon!"

Mentioning Espio's name prompted Sonic to release his pressured grip on Shadow's neck. Shadow took a quick glance behind him to see that 37% of the upload was complete.

"He was a member of the Chaotix. A Freedom Fighter. A hero, just like you!" Shadow retorted. "Go ahead, Sonic. Justify his death. Justify Omega's. Leeta's. Lyco's. Larry's. And I'm assuming you took out Tails' uncle. Go ahead and justify the many lives you've taken. Tell the world why these people had to die for the 'greater good.'"

Sonic didn't show any signs of breaking down. Instead, he glanced at Shadow with a smirk, "How nice of you to mention these names. The names of the criminals who tried to attack me. The resistance's little stooges."

Shadow protested, "They're not criminals! And they're not just my friends. They're yours as well!"

Sonic growled and threw Shadow into the wall behind him. The black hedgehog hit the wall hard, and groaned as he got back to his feet. He took a quick glance at the upload about 54% complete. He'd have to stall for just a little bit more so that the formula could be finished.

Sonic ranted, "So, you tell me that I'm the reason my friends are dead, you mock me, after I've pulled off the most monumental achievement yet seen in Mobius, and then you tell me I killed my own friends, and you expect me to do nothing about it?!"

"I'm not like you, Sonic. I'm not a murderer. But that would be easier to stop you, wouldn't it?" Shadow asked. "If I just shut up? If I just got hold of the Chaos Emeralds and repeatedly blasted you, over and over again? For all you've done, and the people you've killed?"

Sonic responded coldly, "What about it?"

"If you want to kill me, then so you may," Shadow replied sarcastically. "Go ahead and kill me, if that's what you want. I'm sure Sally will be glad to see you kill your own friends to satisfy your lust for power."

All of a sudden, mentioning Sally's name pushed Sonic's temper over the edge.

"SHUT UP!"

With a thunderous cry, Sonic repeatedly punched Shadow. The Chaos Energy he channeled was so immense; a normal person would have all their bones broken, but Shadow's own Chaos Force allowed Shadow to endure, albeit a large hint of pain.

"After your wedding ceremony, you made a promise to protect your family," Shadow stated cruelly. "And you failed."

"I FAILED?!" Sonic roared, disgusted by Shadow's taunt. "YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S FAILED! YOU FAILED EVERYONE! YOU LET CRIMINALS GO TO JAIL KNOWING THEY COULD EASILY BREAK OUT AND KILL OVER AND OVER AGAIN!"

The analysis was now 83% done.

"And your solution was to kill criminals?!" Shadow shouted back. "Do you honestly believe you're honoring Sally by contemplating genocide? Is this what she would've wanted?"

Sonic responded by throwing a single punch to Shadow's face, "I'M DOING THIS FOR HER!"

"No," Shadow deadpanned. "You stopped doing things in the name of honor the moment Sally died. You're doing all of these atrocities only for yourself. You're no longer a hero, Sonic. You're no longer the brave hedgehog I knew all these years ago. You're just a tyrant mad with power, exactly what we're fighting against. A complete monster."

"I'm done being lectured, Shadow," Sonic growled. "You should've been there a long time ago, trying to save New Mobotropolis. But you were too stubborn— you left everyone to die because you were too busy with other things. You don't listen to others; you're stubborn, that's you who are. You're not the brave and heroic hedgehog I always thought you were. You're nothing but a fraud! You always were a fraud from the very beginning, Shadow— you and that smug face of yours!"

93% complete.

"And now, I'm going to return the favor. I'm sending you to re-education," Sonic declared. "But before I do, I can't have you in a position where you can hurt me or end up making decisions that hurt anyone else anymore. I want you to accept it, and do a better job at it."

96% complete.

Still not paying attention to the screen, Sonic once again punched Shadow repeatedly, beating him into submission. Then, he slammed Shadow's head down into his leg, knocking him down to the ground.

But Shadow is still conscious. He wheezed, "You… You won't get away with this. Soon, someone else will stop you. Tyranny won't last. Freedom will win." He gasped for breath, "Mobius will have the rule of justice."

Sonic only scoffed, "It already has. I am justice."

Ignoring Sonic, Shadow tried to push himself up, but Sonic placed a boot on his chest, applying pressure fueled by Chaos Energy. The pressure is strong enough to make Shadow cough up blood.

"Shadow, really," Sonic scoffed again. "Enough already. Stop trying to fight me!"

"I wasn't… I wasn't trying to fight you," Shadow grinned weakly. "I was trying to distract you."

Sonic turned back. For the first time, he noticed the analysis table with the screen reading 'Analysis Complete. Files have been sent to uploaded location per-instructions.'

"What…" Sonic asked horrified by what happened. "What did you do?!"

"I'm glad you asked, blue hedgehog," Shadow replied. "I gave us a fighting chance. Now we can make more of that durability enhancement for ourselves. There is still hope for all of us. We don't have to be afraid of you, Sonic. Not anymore."

And that's when it struck Sonic. He cried, "The endurance pill...!"

Shadow's smile never wavered. He didn't even care about Sonic's face which turned from a shocked expression to a vengeful glare.

"WHY YOU—"

But Sonic never finished his sentence. He suddenly felt a hand grab his shoulder. Sonic turned around to see a newcomer standing behind him with an angry look on her face. She was a human wearing a red shirt, black overalls, red shoes, and had short blonde hair. It was someone he recognized very well...

"Hope Kintobor?" Sonic asked confusedly. He failed to notice the enhancement pill was gone. Before he knew what happened next, Hope grabbed Sonic by the shoulders and slammed her head into Sonic's face. The result gave Sonic a pain unlike anything he had felt before, giving off the sound of a shockwave. Hope pulled away to look at the dazed hedgehog, his nose broken and bleeding from both nostrils. With the poke of Hope's finger to the chest, the corrupted hero of Mobius fell to the ground with a loud thud.

"I'm very disappointed in you, Mr. Sonic," Hope stated angrily, before she got down on her knees and pounded Sonic in the face repeatedly. "You used to be our friend! I don't like you anymore!" Her voice grew more and more angrier as she continued pounding, creating a crack on the floor. With tears streaming her eyes, she screamed, "NEVER AGAIN! YOU HEAR ME?! YOU DON'T HURT MY FRIEND ANYMORE! NEVER AGAIN! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!" When she was finished, Hope got up and knelt next to Shadow. "Are you okay, Shadow?"

"I'm fine," Shadow replied weakly. "We must leave. Now."

"I'll help you out of here," Hope offered. She grabbed Shadow, who groaned with pain, and quickly escorted him out of the computer room. Sonic could only groan as he watched Hope escape with Shadow in her arms. Sonic tried with every ounce of strength he could to push himself up, but instead fell on his back before blacking out. For the first time in his life, the tremendous amounts of Chaos Energy he absorbed seemed to fail him.

A few minutes later, he would awake, and he would be severely enraged.

From where G.U.N. Headquarters stood, a tremendous explosion erupted. The only sound heard out of the furiously burning flames was Sonic's cry of frustration.


Thus, the manhunt for Shadow the Hedgehog and Hope Kintobor begins. Only two individuals stand in a war against a global superpower that ruled the planet with an iron fist.

There is only one play left that Shadow and Hope have; it is known as 'Operation: Chaos Neutralizer.' A final play by G.U.N. in the event that the Chaos Emeralds step out of line; G.U.N. secretly had a way of channeling energy from the Master Emerald to neutralize the energy of the Chaos Emeralds.

However, that plan was made with a device that could only be used by the original Freedom Fighters; most of whom are dead, a few alive on the wrong side of the battlefield. Fortunately, with the help of a mysterious benefactor, Shadow and Hope were able to find help from the most unlikely of places.

Another reality. A world untouched by Dr. Eggman's destruction of New Mobotropolis. A world where the heroes are still pure and good.

And this is where our story begins…
