AN: This is the only time I will say it; I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING FROM SONIC, just borrowing the characters. If there is anything that you do not recognize from the Sonic Franchise, then it's a good guess that I own it. Please see Profile for Reviewing prefrences.
Sonic Unleashed: Dark Times
Prologue: Remnants
Sonic had just defeated Dark Gaia. It was no mean feat, even in his super form with Chip in the Gaia Colossus as backup, but he had done it again. He had saved the world from Dr. Eggman, again. Chip had been sealed with Dark Gaia, and although Sonic knew that it had to be done, it didn't make it any less painful. If anything, it made the victory just that little bit more of a sweet sorrow.
But what no one knew, even Dark Gaia, was that some of the nightmares spawned when Dark Gaia broke apart had been able to resist the call to gather to be fused. These nightmares were different because they were independent of Dark Gaia and had been waiting to be able to finally be free of her. These nightmares were similar in looks, but completely different in personality. These nightmares were able to feel, to think, and to consider other options. These nightmares had free will, and THAT, made them all the more dangerous.
But no one knew, and would not know, for a long time. Three years to be exact, and when someone finally found them out...
IT WOULD BE TOO LATE.
