Let me start by telling you my name is Maria and I'm sixteen years old. I've been living with my brother and friends since I was thirteen. My brother's name is Sonic; he's fifteen, he has long spiked blue hair. He always wears a blue jacket and blue jeans, his shoes are white with yellow stripes on them. He can get a bit cocky and he's also really fast. And I mean really, really fast. My brother's best friend Shadow has been with us since we were five. He's my best friend and boy friend, we've been together since we were six and he's never left my side. Shadow has long black spiked hair with red strips in it, his eyes are even red. He wears a black jacket with white fur in the hood; his black pants lead down to his gold, red and white shoes. Like Sonic, Shadows extremely fast, but unlike Sonic Shadow can use something called chaos control. It's where he can teleport though time and space- he's always using it to get to school on time. My other friends consist of Knuckles, Rouge, Tails or Miles, Amy Rose, and Cream. We all live under the same roof, a two story house. We get along well except when food is on low then the boys think its fine to fight over food. Amy has always had a crush on Sonic; he also likes her but won't admit it. Knuckles and Rouge are the same way. Were all best of friends, we might while we were still in the orphanage. Once Shadow and Sonic were able to control their powers we left. Found a house and jobs and still went to school. Now we were all at our favorite place to relax and play. It was all one big field that we found when we moved in to town. It surrounded by trees so no one would see us use our powers.

Shadow and I were sitting under our favorite big tree while Sonic and Knuckles were sparing. "Come on Knuckles your getting slow!" Sonic taunted him by stepping out of the way every time he tried to hit him.

"Stop moving and stand still!" I could tell Knuckles was getting mad now. He was hitting harder and faster, but it still wasn't fast enough to hit Sonic.

"Haha, wow Knuckles maybe you should train some more." Sonic was starting to get close to where I and Shadow were sitting. Then Sonic ended up falling into my lap while I sat in Shadows. "Hey sis, how's it going?" Sonic gave me his famous cocky grin. He then looked up at Shadow only to receive his most dark glare that only Sonic got from him.

"Sonic if you want to keep your head get off." Shadow and Sonic had their stare down.

"Umm Sonic, cant breath." I took in a lung full of air as Sonic got off me and retuned his and Knuckles fight. Then all of a sudden we could hear Amy running over to Sonic, she warped her arms around him from behind.

"There you are Sonic!" Sonic tried to get out of Amy's grasp but she wasn't going to let go.

"Amy let go!" Just then the other entered the field and sat under the same tree me and Shadow were under.

"Hey Maria, how's it going?" Rouge asked."

"Fine, just watching Knuckles trying to hit Sonic." That's when the light appeared; it spread over the whole field. I covered my eyes from the shining light then I felt it. A sharp pricing pain went through my abdomen.

~Sonic the hedgehog world, no one's prov~

A black and blue blur were moving across a wide open field. Sonic and Shadow the hedgehog were racing each other as they made their way to Tails the two tale fox's home.

"I'm going to win if you keep up that pace Shadow."Sonic and Shadow both made it to tails house at the same time. "Looks like I win."

"Not likely." Shadow said with a sly smile. And he was right. Shadow was Two feet ahead of Sonic at Tails door.

"What?" Sonic stared in disbelief. Then a blinding light came from the forest behind Tails house. Both Sonic and Shadow took off to see what that light was. When they found where the light had been the only thing they found was a human girl balled up in the middle of a clearing. "I wonder what happened to her." Sonic and Shadow approached her lying body. She was young about sixteen; she had raven back hair with a dark red head band. She wore a long sleeved black tee shirt and dark blue pants. She was holding her hands to her abdomen. "I think she's hurt."

Sonic reached down to grab her, but shadow was faster and grabbed her first. "Search the area while I take her back to Tails." Shadow was already gone before Sonic was able to object.

Back at Tails house Shadow used chaos control to get into tails garage faster.

"Hey Shadow, what's up?" Tails walked away from what he was working on.

"I and Sonic found this girl in the forest, I think she's hurt. Do you have a first aid kit and a spare room?" Tails looked at the girl then nodded his head.

"Yeah, this way." Shadow followed Tails into the house. They walked in one of the guest bedrooms and Shadow laid the girl down on the bed. "So what happened?" Tails asked while he pulled up her shirt up so a stab wound. It wasn't too deep so he was able to fix it up easily then warp her bandages.

"Sonic and I were on our way here when a bright light came from the forest. We followed it to a small clearing where she was curled up in a ball and unconscious. I left Sonic there to find anything that would tell us who she is or where she comes from." As if on que Sonic came into the room with a black messenger bag.

"Hey I found this not too far from where we found her." Sonic opened the bag and took out a black wallet. "It says her name is Maria, she's sixteen and lives in Westville. There's also a pitcher in here…" Shadow looked up from the girl whose name was the same as his best friend from fifty years ago. Sonics face said it all. Shadow grabbed the picture from his hand and looked at it. He was stunned to see human versions of him and sonic standing next to the girl. On the picture were words that explained who they were. Next to the blue haired boy was the name Sonic and under it was brother. Next to the blacked haired boy with red strips was the name Shadow and under it said boyfriend. Was still stunned when he heard a moan come from Maria and watched as her eyes opened.

The room was fuzzy and the shapes around me were starting to come together. My eyes widened as I was tow…. Hedgehogs and a….. Fox? I tried to sit up but a pain shot up from abdomen.

"Yeah take it easy don't sit up to fast." The blue hedgehog told me. I stared in disbelief. They could talk to?

"Who are you?" I asked.

"My name is Sonic the hedgehog." He pointed to himself. Wait did he say Sonic?

"My name is Miles Tails." The fox told me.

"And I'm Shadow the hedgehog." This can't be happening; I've never seen anything like this.

"Where am I?" the question just came to me.

"You're in my house," said Tails, "Sonic and Shadow found in the forest; you had a small stab wound, but you should be fine now." He smiled down at me.

"Oh, well thank you, and I'm Maria." I told them.

"We know, sorry but we kind of went through your wallet, we needed to find out who you were." Sonic handed me my messenger bag and my black wallet.

"It's ok, and thank you." I placed my wallet back into my bag then looked back up at them.

"Here" Shadow gave me the back the pitcher of me, Shadow, and Sonic. I looked up at him with questioning eyes. "Can you tell us who those people are? And what happened to you."

"Yeah, that's Sonic my brother and that's Shadow my best friend. We were all sitting under are favorite tree in a big field we always went to. That's when a big blinding light flashed and that's all I can recall." I looked down at the picture. Shadow and Sonic were gone and I had no idea where they could be.

"Was there more with you?" Sonic asked. I nodded my head the pulled out my wallet the pulled out another photo. This one was of all of them together, as I pulled out that photo anther one fell out onto the floor. I saw shadow pick it up, he looked at it for a minute then handed it back to me. It was the one that Amy secretly took of me and Shadow. We were under the tree we always sat under are tree, my eyes were closed as I was sitting in his lap while he had his arms around me and his head was in the nook of my neck. I smiled at the picture then put it back and handed Sonic the photo of all of them.

"That's all of us, me, Shadow, Sonic, Amy, Tails, Knuckles, Rouge, and Cream. We just took that picture last week." Sonic Tails and even Shadows eye widened at when they heard their names and looked over the photo. "What's wrong?" they looked up from the photo and stared at me.

"They must be from another demotion or something; maybe a different world?" Tails stared at the photo a little longer.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Well your friends look the same as us and our friends. Do any of them have strange abilities?" I stared at him for a seconded then nodded my head.

"Yes they do. Sonic had sonic boom and he's real fast," I heard Sonic huff a little bit and smiled. "Shadows same when it comes to speed, he also uses chaos control and other chaos powers. Knuckles have his fist and Rouge has her wings. Amy, Cream and I are the only ones that don't have powers." They looked at each other for a second then Sonic smiled a great big smile at me.

"Looks like I got a human me out there, I'm going to have to race I'm to show him who's boss of this world." I smiled at him the frowned. That right, Sonic might be somewhere in this world along with Shadow and the others. I hope there ok.

"Hey, don't worry we'll help you find them and while we're looking for them we'll look after you. I promise." Sonic gave me the thumps up and smiled brightly at me. He was just like Sonic.

"Thank you Sonic and Shadow for finding me, and Tails thank you for helping me." I smiled at them then sat up all the way then tried to step out of bed. My legs were a little wobbly, but Sonic and Shadow helped me get up. "Thanks, now let's go look for my brother and my friends."
