Chapter 1

A Rogue Experiment

A mistake, a mess-up, a failure. Those were all things they called me, those… those… those HUMANS! They kept me in a tube, constantly running tests on me! It never ended. They asked me why I had ten quills instead of six, like Sonic and Shadow. They constantly made me sprint around a large room simply to see my speed for entertainment. If I didn't obey them they shot at me until I did! I couldn't take it anymore. "I'm busting out of here!"

WARNING! SECURITY BREACH IN SECTOR FIVE! SEND ALL UNITS TO INTERCEPT AND DESTROY THE INTRUDER!

The sirens were blaring all around me, the computerized voice played with a fake sense of urgency. "Hehehe… little do they know, no one's breaking in, I'm breaking OUT! CHAOS SPEAR!" Beams of light shot from my hand, destroying the wall in front of me.

WARNING! INNTRUDER IS DAMAGING THE FACILITY! DESTROY IT OR EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY!

"Sheesh, I'm just knocking down a few walls, come on now, what's the harm?" I heard footsteps, they were coming for me.

"Not so fast, hedgehog!"

I turned around to see a large hovering robot right behind me.

"You may look like Sonic and Shadow, but I know you're just a failed experiment! Give up, we have you surrounded!"

"SCREW YOU!" I started spinning, and launched myself at the robot.

"NO!" They were the soldier's last words; his cockpit gave way to my spin dash and the machine exploded with him still inside.

"Pitiful humans, why are they so frail? I may be just a failed experiment, but I was created from the DNA of the best." The speed of Sonic, the utter ruthlessness and Chaos abilities of Shadow. "And I'm still better than you!" I dashed away, leaving the troops on foot to mourn their lost man.

INITIATE FULL LOCKDOWN! CLOSING ALL SECURITY DOORS! THE INTRUDER WILL NOT ESCAPE ALIVE!

"Damn, how am I supposed to get out of here? There's no way I can take out all of the security doors, even with chaos spear." I sped through the narrow corridors, ramming anyone in my way. After a few minutes, I caught a glimpse of a something glowing.
"It couldn't be…" I ran back just to make sure. "It is! A Chaos Emerald!" I walked in the room to retrieve my prize. The emerald was behind a thick glass wall. "Chaos Spear!" The wall shattered.

WARNING! INTRUDER HAS FOUND THE CHAOS EMERALD! GET IT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

"HA! It IS too late!" I grabbed the emerald, "CHAOS CONTROL!"

"STOP!" The guards had found me, but it was too late.

"Heh, see ya!" I disappeared in a flash.
