"H-How could I let this happen? I'm supposed to be the damn LEADER… And I can't keep something like this from happening….…." Chris groaned as he closed the curtains. That was the third time today. Sam, Danny, and Cathy were sitting in the corner, scared…. "W-What if they come back?" Cathy stuttered. Sam walked over and put a protective arm around her. Danny was staring at the picture in his hands…. Blood was all over the floor, which no one went near.

Danny took Cathy home, after a few sad parting words, so it was only them. Samantha looked at her brother, who had a look of amazement on his face. "Sam…. I… Did all I could…Didn't I?" Chris got up and sat on the couch, trying to keep the tears from falling down….

"SAM! RUN!!! GET OUT OF HERE!!!" Chris, 14 years old, grabbed the blaster and shot four Egg-Pawns, killing them. "CHRIS, NO! WE STICK TOGETHER!!" The boy nodded as they charged their way to the town square. Ever since the sinister Dr. Eggman unleashed his greatest creations on the earth, the Monster Buster Club was forced to go from fighting aliens and keeping Singletown safe, to fighting the greatest evil they had ever faced… He had declared war on humanity, and used his entire tech to do it… Even the Galactic authorities didn't have the power to send back-up.

Everyone could only watch….. With their morale dropping, the MBC returned to their clubhouse, where they left John in charge….. When the team returned, John and Hugo Smith lay there, dead…. the lifeless bodies were sprawled on the wooden floor, their eyes open, and John's face having a twisted look to it…. Weapons were scattered around, and many jars were broken on the floor. The computer screen was split in half, and the walls had scratch marks on them. Blood was everywhere.

Chris and Cathy screamed, and wept bitterly at the sight of their family members. On the floor was a small computer screen, it activated, and an Evil laugh echoed through the building. "You thought YOU could stand up to the GREAT doctor EGGMAN ROBOTNIK? Please! This isn't some game, kids… it's a WAR! A war I intend to win…. You can join me, or continue to fight with those WEAKLINGS!" The crazed man's cackling broke off as the screen turned black again.

That was three years ago…..

The MBC was destroyed…. One by one, hunted like animals by Eggman's greatest creation…. Egg-Emperor. The large Battle robot obliterated Singletown, and eliminated any and all resistance…

The Eggman Empire was created on March 6, 2014, at 12:00 P.M. The human occupants of the city were forced into concentration camps, being tortured every day…. Then, as if out of nowhere, reports of a blue streak speeding across the city was heard… they say he ran faster than the wind, and had been rescuing people from the camps. The blur was uncatchable…. No net, cage, trap, or barrier could hold him. Those who knew the hero would cheer…. They called him Sonic, and he started a movement…. Future generations called them the Sonic Heroes…..

Christopher, now 25, picked up the fallen picture and placed it on the table… it was of him and his friends… before their deaths… The boy walked outside and lay on the ground, staring at the sky…. "Um, Excuse me, could you help me?" Chris got up and looked at the stranger. She had brown hair, hazel eyes, a yellow shirt, jeans, and had her hair up in pigtails. "Um. Sure…" he walked over and unlocked the six lock door for her. "Thanks!" "What's your name?" Chris asked. The girl looked at him for a moment. "Samantha…." She walked inside, leaving Chris shocked….

After getting a hold of himself, he walked back into his house, and put his shoes on. Hearing the wind, he talked to himself, hoping it would hear him. "Ready for today?" As if on cue, the wind picked up He walked out onto the street, and then ran off, a blue blur of wind trailing behind him…..
