MLP FIM: Falling Green Leaves

Chapter 1: Return To The Past
Status: 1 week since Sonic, Alex, and their friends traveled to Earth (Sonic Saga 4)
Location: Earth
Nothing, that's all I see, actually that's all I feel, I can't see or perceive anything. Wait, I can perceive one thing,
I'm falling, but then as I'm falling memories flood back, I died. Wait, if I died then why am I falling, and why don't I
feel like I'm dead? Then, WHUMP, I fall onto the floor, and I hear two other things fall beside me. My eyes flutter
open and I see a concrete floor, I sit up and look around and discover that I'm back in my lab on Earth. "Ugh, what
happened?" I hear a voice of something that landed beside me. I turn to look and see it's my best friend, Sean
Brown lying on the floor, his normal brown hair is now a bit ruffled and he's back in his orange shirt and blue
jeans. "I don't know," I respond to him, and then a female voice says on the other side of me, "Well I do know
one thing, my head hurts." I look to see where the other voice came from and see my girlfriend Cheyanne Hoob
sitting up, rubbing her head. Sean then said, "No what I meant was, why are we here, my last memory is that…"
Then the flashbacks hit me again, this time clearer, a stabbing, of someone, us, we were, killed, by robots, it
became clear, after we had defeated Cyber Metal Shadicx, five of his secret followers disguised as castle guards
stabbed us in the back along with killing Sonic and Amy, straight in the heart and killed us, we had nearly joined
the others that had passed in Mobius when everything went blank, the last thing I can recall saying before that
was telling my son Andy to take care of his sister. I shaked my head out of my flashback trance and the three of
us said in unison, "We died," Sean then asked, "Wait, if we died, then what are we doing back in our home
universe?" I then got up and ran to my desk when Sean had asked this and shuffled through my papers and
books till I found a book labeled, "Universe Travel Theories," I flipped through the pages till I found the page that
I wanted and began reading, "The Anti Matter Return Theory: If ever able to travel to alternate universes, one's
cells will be infused with a small amount of anti matter, that of which will allow the traveler to return to his or her
home universe if ever they are killed in a different universe or stuck in-between universes." I closed the book and
looked at my two friends, who had gotten up but had a dumbfounded look on their faces. Cheyanne then asked,
"How did you remember that?" "Eh, something just clicked in my head when Sean asked how we got back here." I
replied. Sean then looked around the lab and said, "Boy, we haven't been here in a while, looks like we might
have to clean this place up a bit." The three of us agreed, and started to clear the dust off of things and tidy up,
but after a few minutes passed, I realized something, I haven't seen myself in the mirror yet, and who knows
what I looked like? I told my friends about my dilemma and walked into the bathroom, once I stepped in front of
the mirror I saw what had become of me. I looked about as normal as ever, my hair was a bit messed up, but that
was fixable, but other than that, I looked exactly the same as the day the portal broke and my friends and I were
sucked into Mobius. I then heard Sean yell, "This can't be!" I stopped fussing about my hair and ran out to see
what the commotion was about. Sean had activated our universe traveling Portal's computer and was going
through its logs. Sean then said, "According to the travel computer, the last time this was used was one week
ago, and it recorded thirteen beings traveled through it, three of those beings were us, the other ten were Sonic,
Knuckles, Tails, Shadow, Silver, Amy, Maria, Cream, Blaze, and Rouge." I looked in surprise at the computer data,
and then said, "Then that means that it's been one week since we came here to escape from Eggman Nega."
Cheyanne then says, "But that was years ago in Mobius." I then replied, "Something must have disrupt the
universe time conversion and caused it to pop us back in our own universe one week since we came back instead
of much later." I then started to look around the portal, just to be sure no damage was made to it, I did however
notice looking at the back of it that in a corner was a tiny puddle of rainbow color. I dipped my fingers in I and
examined it and Cheyanne saw me do this and she asked, "What's that?" "Not too sure," I replied, "But
something tells me that it might have had something to do with the portal destabilizing and sucking us into
Mobius." I then turned to my friends and asked, "Do you two remember that day?" Sean replied, "How could we
forget?" Cheyanne then said, "It was also the day you misdocumented the transfer." "Oh yeah," I replied, "Yeah I
did misdocument the transfer, silly me." I then began to remember back to that day. We could get the Portal to
open, but couldn't get it to stabilize, the power source wasn't enough. We kept trying but the portal would only
stay open for a few seconds. The day that we got sucked in we had tried it one last time, and it did the same
thing, it opened, stayed open for a few seconds, and then shut down. We nearly gave up, when a big whoosh
sound was heard and the Portal activated by itself, it stayed open for a lot longer than we expected, at least a
few minutes, before it became unstable and sucked us into Mobius. I came back to reality and told my friends,
"Why don't we find out where that surge came from that made the Portal work, even if it was for only a few
minutes." My friends nodded their heads and I walked over to the Portal's computer and began typing on the
keyboard. I searched up the power readings for the day the Portal stabilized and found that the moment it
stabilized it was hit by a tremendous power surge that was not of our universe. I showed my friends this and
Cheyanne asked, "Well what does that mean?" I replied to her, "It means that something was strong enough to
break through the multiversal barrier and hit our universe, probably because we have the Portal." I then looked
to the Portal and said, "Let me work on it for a little, I want to see if I can locate where that energy spike came
from, I also want to check to be sure that the Portal's stable." We agreed and I got to work, researching and
cross referencing anything that had to do with multiple universes, and my work laid into weeks. Only two
however, after I started, did Cheyanne and I decide to see other people, we decided that we had spent one life
together and thought it best if we went our separate ways, we would still be friends and would work together,
but just not be together as a couple. So I continued with my work, till after four weeks, I had run through all my
knowledge and what I had learned from the books, and was sure that the portal was stable and figuring out the
location of the energy spike would be fairly easy. My friends were in a different room in the lab so I just walked
over to the Portal and decided to locate the energy source myself. I typed into the computer to locate the
universe where the energy spike had come from and the Portal kicked on and showed a colorful location, and
what I assumed to be a town, full of brightly colored buildings. I stared at the universe and thought to myself, "So
this is where the energy spike came from." I continued to look at the universe, wondering what could have come
from here that was powerful enough to break the multiversal barrier and hit our universe. Then the Portal started
to sputter before long and the alarms on it started to go off, and in the next few seconds it destabilized again and
I was hanging on by one arm on the edge of the Portal, trying not to get sucked into the universe I had opened. I
see Sean and Cheyanne had heard the alarms as they were standing on the edge looking at me. Cheyanne
yelled over the roar of the portal, "Take my hand!" She proceeded to push her hand towards the portal but Sean
stopped her and said, "Stop Cheyanne, it's too unstable, if you try to rescue him you might get sucked in too!"
Cheyanne pulled her hand back and Sean looked at me with a serious but concerned look in his eyes and said,
"You know what I have to do." I nodded and Cheyanne looked at Sean with sadness in her voice and asked, "You
don't mean?" Sean then said, "I have to seal the portal." I looked at the both of them and said, "If there is any
way to get back, I will take it." I then let go of the edge of the Portal and proceeded to fall through the Bridge,
now the Bridge is what connects two universes together, and as I feel I knew what Sean had to do and I could
almost see him do it. He walked over to the controls and flipped open a plastic box with a red button underneath
it, he pressed the button and the portal on our universes side instantly closed and a metal door closed over it, I
turned around and saw the ground of the new universe come at me quickly and then WHUMP!
