Prologue
Some people say that we are born the way we are destined to be.
The doctor smiled as the woman gave one last push. The newborn baby screamed for the first time as the doctor carefully lifted the it up.
"Bernie, it is a beautiful, healthy baby boy." He smiled as he passed the infant over to his mother. Bernie had tears of joy streaming down her face as her and her husband, Jules, stared at the newest addition to the family.
"He's beautiful." Jules said with a teary smile as he kissed his wife on the head. "Thank you honey."
Some people say that it's a result of how you were raised...
The problem with that theory is that I had the best,most normal parents that anyone could of asked for.
Bernie smiled and made weird faces as she fed her now four month old son, Sonic. The little hedgehog smiled and clapped his hands as he swallowed all the food on the spoon.
Suddenly they heard the front door.
"Oh, Daddy's home." She cooed as Jules walked in. He and Bernie shared a quick kiss before they smiled at their son...
Growing up, I was a happy kid.
Jules and Bernie chuckled as they watched their now five year old son opening his gifts. There were lots of people from their neighbourhood and his preschool at their house for the party.
"Happy birthday, Sonny-Boy!" Jules' brother Charles smiled as he gave the little blue hedgehog a large present.
Sonic opened it and gasped when he saw that it was a pair of the latest and coolest running shoes he had ever seen.
"Thanks Chuck, he's really into all that running stuff now." Jules smiled.
We were really the picture perfect, all american family.
I was five when I realised that I wasn't like the rest of my family...
