The Sonic Chronicles

Book I – Chapter I

Frost's Point of View

There were days that I felt that my life had no meaning. Why I was here in the first place? Did my life have some role to play in something greater or was this a cruel joke? Whatever the reason could be, I didn't have time to ponder about it. Today was the day my comrades and I graduated to agents.

You see I don't have a family, a lot of people here at the Elemental Arts Institute don't either. Most of us were raised from birth into warriors. Some were just left by their families because they were thought of as a burden. While I, on the other hand, came here after my home was destroyed and my family, well, gone. That was the only other memory I had left.

I awoke from my daydreaming to a banging on my dorm room. "Come on Frostbit! I know you can hear me!" yelled Kane. I sighed and rolled out of bed. I grabbed combat coat and boots. When the door opened, not only was Kane there but my other two comrades Tesla and Grey. Grey walked up began to mess with my hair. I pushed her hand away.

"My hair is fine, mind you, so leave it alone" I grumbled

Let me describe my comrades. Kane was a black jackal who wore a long black coat. His eyes were a steely gray. Kane was like me, except he was an heir to a kingdom. His family was killed and he was escorted out by the many citizens who swore their lives to the kingdom. He uses control over sand which many think as a weak ability but is great for immobilizing his opponents and using his brute force to attack them head on.

Next is Tesla, He's a small but nimble black cat. He wears a black coat and a pair of aviator goggles. Tesla didn't come from royalty but his family was famous. He was the son of Sir Archibald the noble and Galena the wise. Both of which were murdered mysteriously. Unlike his parents, Tesla was rather lazy and didn't like confrontation. He used electricity on the battlefield. Which is one of the many reasons I don't like using him as my sparring partner. His body generates at least 1000 volts per minute. Which makes Tesla a walking power source.

Finally comes Grey who is a mouse. Unlike Kane, Tesla, and I, She doesn't wear a coat but instead a gray long-sleeved shirt and jeans along with brown combat boots. She isn't very strong but she is very well educated. No one really knows where Grey comes from or who her parents were, no one really asked either. She could be really irritating but she did keep me company whenever I needed someone.

Anyway, we made our way down the hall towards the Grand Hall. The place where we all go to be promoted in rank, demoted, or even kicked out. I only saw that happen once and it was not a pretty sight. When we went through the doors, thousands of initiates were in the bleachers. We took the nearest seat towards the back. An initiate named Shift, who was part of Class C-1 like us, nudged my shoulder.

"It's the big day Frost, look cheery!" He whispered. I turned away from him which caused him to look hurt.

The leader of the EAI walked into the center of the room. His name was Auroro. He wore a white cloak. His face was cloaked so no one knew what he looked like. He had a fox like tail so we all assumed that he was. Some say that he was old as time itself. Some say he had power over every element. Although none of those rumors were, proved because like Grey, Master Auroro had an unknown origin. We just knew he was old, wise, and led us all through good and bad. Master Auroro raised his hands and the room fell silent.

"Gathered friends, today is a momentous day. The day that only comes once in every three years. The graduation."

Master went on about the history of the EAI. I've heard it and so has everyone else in Class C-1. We've known about it since the day we graduated from Neophyte rank. The EAI was created thousands of years ago by a man who was said to have power over all elements. He saw to it that people like him with elemental abilities to have a safe and peaceful place to hone their abilities. Thus the EAI was born but, kept in secret from the outside world. For many wanted it destroyed in fear of those with elemental abilities. His name was Master Ererzium. He died a long time ago or so many said. I honestly think that someone this powerful died of old age.

Next, Master Auroro started calling up classes starting with the Neophytes. Shift's little brother, Spark, was the leader of the class. Next came the Novices, then Rookies, and finally us. The Agents. When our time came we walked down the steps toward the center of the room.

Master Auroro called us to the front "Class C-1 Agents, arise" He said.

Then he called us up by name and announced our achievements. Also there Tesla received the Agility Badge, Kane received the Strength Badge, and Grey received the Intellect Badge. I was last and was sweating. All but two badges had been handed out. The Most Well Rounded and the Failure Badge.

Master Auroro walked in front of me. He looked up and for a minute I could see a golden eyes staring at me that sent jolts down my spine.

"Frost the Hare, you are special in a way many cannot describe" He croaked "You have potential and determination my boy which is why you shall receive this"

He handed me a badge face down. When I turned it over, there was a triangle with a star in the middle. I knew what this badge meant. I hadn't been promoted to Agent. I have been promoted to Master Auroro's advisor. Master Auroro raised hands in the air again.

"Let us all give Frost praise in his new position!" He cried

Everyone gasped, then someone started clapping. As though it were a chain reaction, everyone was clapping. I felt lightheaded and fell to the floor. Everyone crowded around me in worry. The world around me spun and everything went black

My eyes opened and I was in a pitch black area. There was nothing or no one. I began to walk around but it seemed endless. I began walking again and someone ran across my path. I recognized him, it was me. Then someone blue ran up behind me. It was a hedgehog. Both of us stopped and backed away from something. Before I could see the rest I began to fall through some hole and I woke up.

In front of me was Master Auroro, Grey, Shift, Tesla, and Kane. They all looked like they had seen a ghost. Then Kane began clapping.

"You lived, and here I thought…" Grey punched him in the shoulder "Ow!"

Master Auroro waved the others away and they left my room. He sat next to my bed and chuckled softly.

He looked at me with concern and said "How do you feel my boy?" I scratched my head. "Fine I would believe" I sighed.

He nodded slightly "That was quite a fall you had. Had the whole crowd worried sick" He sighed. He got up and made his way toward the door. He stopped and looked at me with that golden eye. "Get your rest and try not to leave unless you absolutely need to do so" He walked out of the door without another word.

Well one thing was certain and that was that I was not going to stay in my bed and rest. I needed to clear my head and knew one place that was peaceful enough. The Garden of Master Erezium.

When I reached the garden, I wasn't alone. Grey was sitting on a stone bench looking over a lake. I sat next to her but she seemed unfazed. We sat there in silence until Grey finally talked.

"Frost shouldn't you be in bed? You're not well" She asked quizzically. I turned away from her. "I have a lot on my mind right now"

Grey looked up at me with an arched eyebrow. Ever since I had started questioning who I was, Grey out everyone understood the most. Although her response surprised me this time

"Don't delve into it too much…" now that wasn't the Grey I knew. Although she seemed in a bad mood I didn't bother her. She was normally cheerful and if she was mad then…well let's just say it was a lesson Kane learned not too long ago but that would be completely different story.

The two of us sat there in complete silence with no one bothering us until we heard some rustling behind us. We turned thinking it was one of the younger initiates about to pull a prank. Instead we saw a very rotund man. With glasses that were so thick that you couldn't see any part of his eyes. I didn't recognize him from the E.A.I and he surely couldn't be a lost wondering child.

"What is your business here?" I questioned "We can already know you aren't an initiate"

He smiled wickedly which I found rather unsettling but he only seemed to approach us further. "I am only here to speak to the leader" He smirked "However though I couldn't help but overhear your memory troubles"

Grey stepped in front of me as though she were protecting me.

"Why don't you go do what you came for" She snarled. I pushed her aside "What exactly could you know about my memories?" I asked. This only seemed to make the man chuckle.

"Not exactly me but someone else" said the man "Have you ever heard of a person by the name Sonic?"

I shook my head, with nobody to match the name. "The name isn't fond of me but what does he have to do with me?"

The man laughed and then his he smiled. His smile was evil and crooked. It didn't even seem to fit on his face.

"Everything my dear boy" The man sneered

Grey waved her hands.

"Woah, Woah, Woah! You know nothing about this guy and you're just going to believe him" She remarked angrily.

The man looked offended. "What reason would I have to lie?" He extended his hand

"Here. We can even shake on it."

I slowly extended my hand. I looked over to my side and saw Grey turn away. I could tell she disapproved but that didn't stop me, I shook the man's hand

"So we have deal," he snickered, the man held out his hand and a holographic image popped up. I nearly gasped when to hologram showed a picture of the blue hedgehog in my dream.

"So that's Sonic?" I asked with anticipation. The man nodded and gave me the hologram.

"Now that I have helped you I will be on my way" He said while walking off only to disappear into the shadows.

After the man had left I had gone back inside to my room to gathering supplies due to fact I would gone for a long time. Grey had gone to her own room and hadn't spoken to me since. I could imagine that she was mad but I didn't care. This was my past, not hers. When I finished packing I walked out of the door silently, trying not to wake anyone. When I finally made it toward the exit, Grey was there waiting with a bag.

"What are you doing?" I asked in irritation

"Well coming with you of course! Someone had to look after you" She exclaimed

This only made me more irritated. The fact that she thought that she had to look after me? I was older than she was, how in the world would she look after me? I walked past her and pushed open the door.

"This doesn't concern you" I grumbled "Just stay out of my way"

I continued out of the door. For a while all I could hear were the crickets in the night until I heard footsteps behind me. I turned to see Grey still following me. I slapped my forehead.

"You're going to keep following me no matter how many times I say no aren't you?" I sighed in anguish. Grey only nodded and joined my side

I could already tell this wasn't going to go the way I had hopped. Then again, nothing in my life had so what are the odds?

The story begins, and the tables don't look like they're in Frost's position. Will he find what he seeks or only find more tragedy? Find out in the next chapter, The Battle Begins!
