Chapter 1
Prologue
Eclipse's POV
I closed my eyes slowly, letting the wind drift across my face, soothing and calming my nerves. A white aura slowly appears around my body as I lift upwards into the air. 'Okay Eclipse... Just stay calm and focus and you'll be just fi-' SCHZOOOM! I dove to the side just in time to avoid the object flying towards me, looking around frantically for the source of the object. I looked behind me, just catching the glimpse of a red glowing icesicle shaped object disappear into the distance. I looked back infront of me, my sky blue hues shifting to a deep crimson as the white aura around me glew brighter, my ears twitching in different directions.
My ears perked forwards, catching the sound of laughter. I looked around for a moment, then shifting my gaze downwards. I groaned, my ears drooping from aggervation, as I spotted a familiar brown hedgehog below me, doubled over laughing. I growled, narrowing my eyes at the hedgehog. "Buck! What did Mom and Dad tell you about distracting me when I'm training!" I yelled down to the guffawing hedgehog below. Buck was around 10 years old, just 3 years younger than me. He hand deep blue eyes, brown fur, and a pair of blue sneakers.
Buck calmed his laughter enough to speak, cupping his hands around his mouth. "They said to stay away from you!" He held his arms outwards, motioning to the large grassy plain surrounding us, then motioned up to me. "From the looks of it, I'm not near you! You're about 80 feet up in the air!" He laughed, then in a flash of brown, he was already running half way across the plain. I blinked, looking down, and sure enough I was around 80 to 90 feet in the air. I scoffed in surprise, amazed at the new height I had flown to today.
I laughed in triumpht, flying around the air in a circle, twisting in a small circle as my laughing slowly calmed. I slowly lowered myself back to the ground, picking up my small black booksack, placing my blue chaos emerald back into the front pocket as I started my way across the plain back to my house. I was a 13 year old Mobian that lived in a uninhabited area of the Titanic Plains. The Titanic Plains is a beautiful area filled with nothing but flowing green grass and, occasionally, a few breath taking rocky areas from old eroided rocks and the ruins of old buildings. I had black quills that had hot pink strips in them, black fur, a tuft of black and hot pink quills swaying lazily over my left eye, and sky blue eyes. My usual get-up was a black wide strapped tank, a pair of baggy tan kaprees, dog-tags, and a pair of hot pink high tops.
My Mother's name was Crystal. She was a stay-at-home Mom with two kids, me and my brother, Buck. She had beautiful sapphire eyes, long brown quills that came mid back and had pink strips in them, and brown fur. She was very beautiful and kind. She homeschooled me my entire life, teaching me, helping me train, and such more. She had chaos abilities, or, well, the ability to use chaos and a chaos emerald. I had the same abilites as her and my Father. My Father's name was Aaron. He had telekonisis ablities, ((I'm not sure what the ability or abilities is called, but the abilities that Silver The Hedgehog has)) that gives him the abilities to fly and move objects with aura. I somehow enherited both chaos and telekonisis abilites from my parents. Buck only enherited my Mother's.
I was shaken from my thoughts by a loud whirring sound. The sound sounded like a ship of some sort. It had a sound that sounded like the mixure of a whirring and a whistling sound. My ear twitched, listening as I examined the area. That's when I saw it. Just a faint glimpse of it before I was thrown backwards from the shockwave of an explosion. It was a symbol of the face of a man with a large moustache. It happened so quickly. The whistling sound. The explosion. The ringing in my ears. The pain. Oh the pain. I layed on the ground for a moment, the ringing so loud in my ears that it seemed like I was being shut out from the world outside. I kept my eyes closed, for fear of what I would see, but I willed myself to open them, slowly.
I was shocked. The world I once knew was now unknown to me. Completely forgien. The beautiful green grass was now ablaze by a hungry green fire. The beautiful eroided rock sculpture that was near my home was in large crumbling pieces on the burning ground. The house. There infront of me, was the charred, burning remains of my beloved home. In the middle of the once beautiful plain was the burning little cabin that was my home. The home that my family an- 'Oh no...' The ringing in my ears had gone down alittle bit, just enough for me to hear me screaming my Father, Mother, and Brother's name as I ran towards the burning cabin. I didn't even slow when I neared the cabin. I rammed my shoulder into the burning door, knocking it to the ground. I coughed into my elbow from the smoke, my eyes watering. My voice was already becoming hoarse and scratchy as I continued to yell my family's names.
Burning pieces of wood collapsed around me, some just barely grazing my body. I walked through the burning living room towards my Dad's office, only to stop dead in my tracks. I quickly backed away from the office, the two unfamiliar beings inside still speaking. My hearing had come back enough to make out what they were saying. "Sir. The shard is not here. Perhaps we have the wrong location." The first voice was robotic. "No! It has to be here! The locator said it was at this exact spot on the Tectonic Plains!" The second one was more normal sounding, obviously a male. He sounded as if he had some kind of helmet over his head. Perhaps to block and filter the smoke out. "Sir. It is pronounced Titanic Plains." The robotic voice corrected. I heard a sigh and the sound of someone punching a hollow metal cylinder. "I know you walking junkyard!" The male voice shouted. The robotic voice spoke, supposedly showing a sign of pain from the blow, but it had no actual pained sound in it's voice. "Ow." I heard a groan, followed by approaching footsteps. I gasped, scrambling backwards to escape from the two, only to fall backwards on an overturned, charred dining chair.
As I fell backwards, my back hit the old washtub of my Mother's, creating a loud sound. As I started to get back to my feet, a large piece of burning lumber fell from the ceiling, landing right on my side, knocking me back down and pinning me. I exclaimed in pain, completely forgetting about the two strangers that had turned their attention towards me. I looked up, my eyes stinging from the smoke as I struggled to push the lumber off of me. The male voice boomed through the helmet as he pointed a finger at me, commanding the large robot into my direction. The man was an odd egg-shape. He was wearing a red suit, with a pair of black pants. Through he helmet I could barely make out the large moustache and the small goggles placed over his eyes. As the robot neared, I started to whimper, straining to remove the large piece of wood from my side.
I absent mindedly started to focus on the log, blocking out the world around me. I blocked out the approaching robot. The burning cabin. Everything. Slowly the piece of lumber on my side became surrounded by a white aura, lifted from my side, and slamming into the robot approaching me, sending it backwards. I stared for a moment, surprised by the sudden boost of power in me before I quickly scrambled to my feet, ignoring the throbbing pain in my side. I ran for the door of the house, clutching my side as a white aura surrounded me, preparing myself to fly away as far as possible. As I started to leap for the door, a large robot, similiar to the one I had hit with the lumber earlier, blocked my path in the door way. I screamed, staggering backwards, trying to hurry to the back door, only to find it blocked by a similiar robot. I looked around frantically, trying to find a way out. My gaze locked on the part of the roof above me that had fallen in. That was it. That was my only way out. I looked back to my surroundings, catching a glimpse of the small booksack that had fallen from my shoulder as I ran into the house, the pocket that my blue chaos emerald was in was slighlty open, the faint glow of the emerald shining through the smoke.
'I can do this... I just have to time myself...' I thought. I readied myself, my gaze set on the bag. 'Ready... Set... Go!' I flung myself towards the bag, barely missing the small missiles fired by the two robots. I gripped the bag in my had, as a white aura surrounded me. I jumped, shooting through the hole in the ceiling, into the grey, thundering sky. I pushed myself to go further. Away from here. My gaze looked to the woods just a few miles ahead. 'I can make that... I have to get there...' I thought to myself. I looked behind me at the burning cabin and the burning plains around it. My stinging eyes welled up with tears at the thought. 'They're gone... My family is gone...' I wiped the tears from my eyes, landing in the middle of the plains just about a mile from now burning memories.
I stared into the distance, as I fell to my knees, the booksack sliding off of my shoulder, falling to the green grass below. The thunder over head boomed just before a down pour of rain came plummeting down. I could hold it in. I shook my head, letting out a choked sob as I shook my head. I clutched my side, now realizing the major injury on it. My entire side was covered in blood, fresh blood still seeping out. I shook my head as my vision blurred, falling to my side on the grass. My vision started to darken as my eyes drifted closed, my father's voice echoing in my head. 'It is in the family tree, Eclipse... Just remember... My little Gaurdian..." Just before my eyes closed completely, I saw the bright flash of blue from my chaos emerald, then my world went dark.
