Hunter's Night
Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic; he and related characters belong to Sega. The cross over creature belongs to their proper owner(s) specific name is not given so it does not spoil too much of next chapter.
Notes: Okay, I'm usually a comedy and romance writer; but I've always wanted to cross Sonic over with this creature. What better to bring love than a ruthless 7.2 foot hunter from another world with nearly unstoppable technology? I think I'm the first to cross these two over, if I am; yeah, go baby, go! It just got started one night at one in the morning; ADD is funny thing, useless but funny;
My first true horror/romance story. In my opinion I think I am kind of graphic, but that's just me.
Very Important Note to all my other readers: Other stories may be EVEN slower to updated due to a 2 week trip (Returning on the 24th) and the fact that school is starting up here again; 12th grade baby then I'm gone to college; wish me luck this year; I can't screw up! My biggest problem is, no matter how far I get, I feel the need to re-do it, writer's block on and off isn't helping at all.
Enjoy; really review and tell me if it was horror or if it needs more. No flames or hating on the couples.
Chapter One — The Hunter's Moon
Mystic Ruins; (12:34 am)
A full moon, over the earth it looked down on all of the inhabitants of this world's side.
It was called the Hunter's Moon, it was bigger than normal; it shined brightly upon the crumbling ruins of the Mystic temple. The ancient structure stood in its own rumble, fallen pillars and broken walls lay as broken bricks and destroyed rock. Natured had coated it with its vines of time, covering it heavily in thick green creepers. They grew around it aimlessly, covering the closest thing. Cracks all over the temple allowed a bug to make their home inside. All was quiet, not even a cricket in this surrounding.
The night was cold. And icy air let your see your breath, the wind smacked your face at low speeds but with a chilling feeling. A light fog had formed around the temples step like levels, thicker if it was closer to ground. The fog was thick but slightly transparent at the bottom, it was low, you couldn't see your feet if you stood up.
On this night there was only one on the temple grounds.
A gigantic 7.3 foot creature. A mask hid four mandibles on the sides of its mouth. The mask had a tribal T like marking on the fore-head area; on both the mask and his flesh underneath it. It seemed to have been in battle before, three long slashes crossed one top-corner of its mask to the opposite bottom corner; they ran across the two separate eye pieces. It had long dreadlocks rooted to the sides of its head and drooped down to its lower back, it was in late youth; the rings on the dreadlocks were made of gold and silver, not platinum like those of a full-fledged Warrior-adult or the diamond fused into platinum like that of an Elder – (Rank). Under the moon light, if not for its freighting figure, a person might have been in awe of the beautiful glow and glint the moons light created on the age and battle rings.
An alloy, of unknown matter covered its broad shoulders, its chest area and rib areas were well armored with it as well. The abdomen area was exposed flesh, it seemed extremely tuff and well built, a light but durable open-spaced mesh of cloth covered it.
Its arms were armored from wrist to elbow; elbow to shoulder was covered in its net like cover. They were gauntlets with computer interfaces and holographic mapping capabilities. The gauntlets on its arms had the single blade point on one arm and dual blade point on the other, each exposed slightly. They were hidden inside of the armored gauntlets; on top of its left one was guide and holographic mapping computer—all purpose computer in other words.
Its legs had strong armor from its knees down to its ankle area. It had shoe type armor on its feet, it had two big toes. On it's waist was a belt like object the held a very light armor that was like cloth, two hung at its sides, covering its leg sides; from the waist to the knee. One hung in the middle; it went straight from the waist down to its knees like the side ones, and like the others, it curved into a smooth 'V' tip at the bottom. The exposed flesh on its legs had the net like cloth covering them.
Its forehands had a different type of metal armor; a very flexible one; extended to its short clawed fingers. The skin on the forearm was unlike the arms or the stomach's it was reptile like, very rough.
It did not see like others. It saw heat, the visuals tones and sharpness enhanced by the mask. He could see heat, the shape of a figure in the dark; by green color coding (Night vision), internal, electrical, and energy.
Cradled in its five claw tipped hand it had a trophy. A skull attached to a spine. The purple blood had been wiped off; it had sharp teeth and looked nothing anything on earth. The male hunter set it back in place on his back, next to his shoulder mounted plasma gun. The advance gun was in its slot, tucked away for now; he attached the skull to its chain and observed the temples' huge, destroyed courtyard. He checked his mask's interface to see his hunter's staff was still in place; diagonally attached on his back.
He stood up and slowly walked down the numerous steps of the temple. The small skulls of his hunts as a youngling and beads clanking and knocking into each other and the metal of his armor as he made his way into the forest.
His detailed figure disappeared under the dark blue and purple sky. He stopped and turned slightly to face the moon. He nodded once and hit his chest with one of his forearm; making a hand sign; his pinky and his middle finger bent down and his ring, and index finger and thumb extended. It was his symbol for his rank; Bounty Hunter.
He continued walking into the forest until the blurry and distorted shape of his colorless and unseen body disappeared in the cover of the deep green trees of the forest.
Angel Island;
"They say horrible things happen under a moon like this." The crimson echidna said grimly to himself.
The wind blew coldly against his fur, but he did not shiver; the Master Emerald's energy gave off a warm aura. He sat with his back to it, on cold nights like this he dare not sleep on the small steps of the shrine; he would freeze to death or at least a sickness would come.
"I've got a bad feeling about all of this." He hugged his body as a harsh wind blew, "Hope they're all okay." He looked up at the moon, usually it pleased him. It comforted and relaxed him…
But now, he could only think of dark possibilities.
City;
No sleep; instincts wouldn't let him sleep.
The red striped hedgehog crouched at the edge of the building in the freezing air on the rooftop. He observed the quiet city below him. This building was extremely high, he could see as far as Knothole from this building.
He had no home, no one would trust him. Sonic and Tails had offered but he refused; if he wouldn't accept help from Rouge, Amy or Mina, why would he take an offer made by that faker? He was solo in this world; there was no one for him rely on, not that he needed anyone in the first place.
All he needed was this custom 12mm handgun and two 18 bullet clips. That's all he ever, and would ever need…
Or so he told himself that which each day that passed by…
His red crimson orbs felt no need for sleep, they watched the city lights below; on alert; there was something wrong this night.
Else where in the city; Amy's Home
The rose couldn't let her eyelids fall. Her nightmares were horrifying; she woke up crying every hour she slept.
In her creamy-white colored room she sat up in bed. The pink covers of her bed hugged against her chest, the cold was still making its way past the heat of her home and covers and to her body. Her purple night gown left her bare shoulders in the cold at night; she shivered now as she tried to cover her body with the warm of the blanket.
Her green eyes locked on the phone; she wanted to call someone for comfort, these dreams of death and horror seemed so real and scared her.
---Forest---
He let out his signature purr. The growl like sound that sound similar to fast and multiple soft tongue clicks. He walked through the dark forest, his feet making heavy thumps as he followed the trail of dirt to the village only little ways ahead.
Luckily the girl he had been stalking was unaware. His distance kept the thumping from his heavy feet faint and quiet.
The girl was colored white, her eyes yellow. Strands of her hair were colored a different color, a texture visioning could tell they where of a synthetic dye. The many fine hairs were dyed pink and grouped into a stripe like style.
She had a vague, a very vague aura of orange and white energies around her feet, originally he had been tracking the energy signature of the object in the close distance. But upon finding her, she would be a more accurate way to locate it; much easier than the mapping that only pointed him in the direction of the energy.
She yawned and pulled something out her pocket; he could hear a distorted jingly sound as she pulled chain out, attached were keys. He watched from around the corner of the house, his invisible cloaking gave him nearly perfect cover, only flaw was the distorted and blurred or magnified shapes of the area that it created.
He saw colors of orange and white in the form of vapors flow out gently from the door she opened. Another feminine voice said something to her; due to his non-native planet langue and hearing it had a very fuzzy and unclear tone to it, his mask's translator device transmitted the conversation as best it could;
"Sari—eez, it—almost one—you gotta—careful, there's—of creeps out there." The one who greeted said.
He changed his visioning from energy to transparent. He looked at the home, he saw through the walls. The wall's shape was lined in green; the furnishings due to their color were outlined in blue or red depending on color. His eyes looked around for the two he had heard. The bounty hunter could see all types of furniture and two sleeping quarters.
He saw the two females talk with one another;
"—I know—Mina—on't worry—about me." He heard the white one say.
The other one was yellow, her hair purple. She had blue-green eyes and small antlers; she yawned once saying a farewell to her company as they part to their rooms after a quick chuckle about something the white one said. Upon following the white female, the bounty hunter found its secondary target. The jewel lay next to the yellow mongoose's bed, next to her pillow. He locked his targeting triangle onto it and zoomed in on it. It let out a soft and silent purr; the energy would be prefect.
Tails' Home;
All was quiet. They both slept soundly, Sonic snored softly in his room. Tails hugged his old teddy bear; it was the only keepsake of his child hood.
Sonic hugged one of his four pillows in his sleep. He talked in his sleep; like any other night it was about nothing, he slept like a baby.
A hunched figure crossed the street; he avoided the lights as he crossed into the park. His mask's locating tools malfunctioning from the ruff landing on the planet. Following the vague aura of purple and blue he chased the fumes on the ground into the outlines of a complex highway.
I know short, thanks for reading. Please tell me how I did so far, grammar wise; the horror; blood; gore; death, all come later.
Rated 'T' for now, but it will go up to 'M', at least I think…not too sure yet…I really don't know what qualifies as an 'M' rated horror fic.
Once again, thanks for taking your time to read. This was more of an introduction, but that's how I wanted this chapter.
