Sonic's Christmas Adventure

Chapter 1: Christmas Hype

It was a cold, wintery day in Station Square and everyone's getting ready for the year's most awesome time of the year: Christmas. The whole town was decorated gaily with beautiful decorations and lights, everyone was doing some last minute shopping and enjoying the wonderful winter snow while it sprinkles down to Mobius, but the person; or should I say Mobian hedgehog who's really excited the most is our blue spiky blue hero, Sonic. He was sitting on top of a building watching the whole city enjoy it's festivities and if you're wondering, Sonic's not cold for two reasons: with his constant running, he has enough body heat to stand the cold and second, for extra insurance, Sonic is also wearing a blue and white scarf Amy gave him as a gift earlier in November when the first bit of snow began to fall. Amy didn't want Sonic to get sick for the holidays, especially since he and the rest of the Sonic Team are having a lot of plans this year but the main things are Amy's Christmas Party at her place and Sonic volunteering to make a special appearance at an orphanage as Santa and give them some gifts to cheer them up and make them happy. Speaking of Amy, Sonic was suppose to meet up with her at her house, said that she needed a little favor from him.

"Well, better got see and figure what she needs me for." The blue blur said as he ran down from the building by running down out the building and ran as fast as his legs could take him and he made it to Amy's house in record time. He knocked on the door and waited for a few moments until a sakura pink hedgehog girl opened the door, wearing a green holiday apron decorated with Santas and reindeers with a big picture of candy canes at the front, and by the looks of chocolate chips, dough and flour on it, Sonic figured Amy was baking hard.

"Hiya Amy!" Sonic greeted her warmly; Amy smiled back and tried to dust off the flour on her apron to make it somewhat presentable.

"Thanks for coming Sonic!" the female hedgehog greeted him and lead him inside and into the kitchen where there were a lot of cookies and cakes on the counter and Sonic had to focus on Amy to not be tempted to eat her food.

"The reason I wanted you hear is because I want you try some of these." Amy explained to him as she held up a place of cookies in front of him. Sonic took one and it made a loud crunch as he chewed it, he swallowed and had a big smile on his face.

"Amy, this is delicious!" the blue hedgehog exclaimed in delight as he finished eating his. "What flavor is it?"

"Snickerdoodles, with a bit of peppermint." Amy said as she was lining a square cookie tin with plastic wrap and put a few cookies in it. "I've decided to mix a holiday classic with something new."

"Nice work, Amy!" Sonic complimented her. "The kids will love it!"

"Speaking of which…" Amy said as he handed the tin to him. "…you mind delivering this to the orphanage for me, Sonic? Me, Vanilla and Cream are going shopping for more Christmas presents for everyone."

"Sure thing Amy." Sonic smirked, giving his trademark thumbs up.

"Great Sonic." Amy thanked him. "You're a real sweetheart."

"Aww, Ames. Stop it." Sonic said bashfully as he left the house and began running towards the orphanage, but he didn't get far when he accidentally bumped into Shadow.

"Hey, watch it, Faker!" Shadow said as he and Sonic got up and rubbed their heads. Sonic noticed that he dropped the cookie tin Amy gave him; he picked up and checked to make sure that it wasn't dented; luckily, it wasn't damaged from the impact.

"Sorry Shadow, I was in a rush." Sonic apologized to him as he tucked the tin underneath his arm while Shadow just glared at him.

"Do I dare as why?" Shadow asked him, annoyed.

"For the orphans." Sonic explained to him, rolling his eyes. "Don't tell me you forgot Shadow."

"For the record, no." Shadow said to him, arms crossed. "And secondly, I don't see the point in this holiday."

Sonic just looked at Shadow in shock and surprise. Shadow not knowing about the point in Christmas?!

"I mean, it's another holiday where people just give gifts to each other and exchange cards and junk." Shadow told him.

"It's not like that Shads." Sonic told him. "It's a year of love and joy and celebrating with family and friends."

"Whatever hedgehog." Shadow said to him and turned his back. " Don't you have some kids to see?"

"You're lucky I do." Sonic told him, but before Sonic left he gave Shadow a bit of a warning.

"But remember this Shadow…If you don't believe in the true meaning of Christmas…"

"I'll be haunted by the Ghost of Christmas Past, Present and Future….blah, blah, blah…" Shadow sneered and laughed. "I heard that stupid holiday a ton of times hedgehog, and if you're trying to scare me. It's not working."

"Wait until tonight, Shads…" Sonic smirked as he ran off to the orphanage.

Shadow just pulled out his emerald and teleported away while muttering a 'stupid hedgehog' under his breath before he disappears.

My first Sonic Christmas story, decided to do one for the holidays before I get sidetracked during November and the first few weeks od December. I hope you like this, guys! To make up for my long hiatus.
