Chapter 1

Well I'm writing another story also because I got really inspired for some reason. I'll still work on the other story, so don't worry.

Well, enjoy chapter 1!

NOTE: This will be a Sondash story! And for the other pairings, you'll just have to wait and find out ^w^

Sonic woke up to a beam of light on his face. He groaned, and looked at his clock. 10 am. Sonic slowly got out of bed. He was still in a bad mood, from arguing with his parents the night before. Sonic was the heir to the throne, and his time to be king was coming up. His parents insisted that he had to marry before he could rule a kingdom. They wanted him to marry Princess Amy, the princess of their enemy kingdom. They believed that if Sonic and Amy married, the two kingdoms could rejoice in peace. Sonic did not like this idea.

FLASHBACK:

"I'm not ready for marriage! I don't even like her!" Sonic yelled, angry at his parents. "You must. For the good of your kingdom!" His father, king Discord yelled. "I'm not going to marry someone I don't even know! I want a chance to fall in love!" Sonic yelled back, furiously. "I am sorry my son. But you must." His mother, Queen Celestia said calmly. Sonic couldn't believe this. His kind and sweet mother actually wanted this? Sonic just stomped out of his parents room, and slammed the door behind him.

FLASHBACK ENDS.

Sonic decided to go for a run, his favorite activity. Running always calms him. And due to his super speed, he could go places that would usually take an average person a few years to go to.

He threw on some clothes, and headed down the royal hall. When he got outside, he decided to run through the village. He took off, but almost as soon as he started, he heard a yell, and he screeched to a stop.

"STOP THIEF!" Sonic heard someone scream. He quickly turned in the direction of the scream. He saw a bunch of guards gathering around something. As he got closer, Sonic saw that they were cornering a person against a wall.

Sonic couldn't tell if the person was a boy or a girl, but he assumed it was a boy, because with the tough guards, only desperate men try to steal stuff, and with the punishment being a caning of 15 strikes. Sonic thought it was a bit much, but until he became king, his dad enforced the rules.

The person was wearing a black costume, a cape, and dark blue boots. The only thing being visible was his mouth, and a rainbow colored tail.

The guards were closing in on him, and he backed into a wall. "Give the bread back, and this doesn't have to get dirty!" One guard sneered. Sonic ran up to them. "WHAT is going on here?!" Sonic yelled. "This bastard stole a loaf of bread! Food has been disappearing over the past week, and now we caught him read handed!" One of the guards shouted.

When they looked back over in the direction of the thief, he was gone. "What the.." Sonic muttered. They heard a whistle, and looked over to see him sitting on a lamppost, crossing his arms and legs, grinning. "Why you…!" The guard was about to charge, but Sonic stopped him. "I'll handle this." Sonic walked over, and calmly looked up at the thief. "Return the bread! NOW!" Sonic yelled. The thief frowned, and in one swift movement, jumped to the ground. Then he took off running. "HEY! Get back here!" Sonic yelled, and chased after the thief.

Sonic caught up easily, due to his super speed, but when he tried to grab him, the person front flipped onto a nearby food cart, and kept moving, jumping from stand to stand. Sonic started to throw rocks, one of them making her lose her footing a little, this gave a nearby guard a chance to attack. He shot an arrow at him. The person took notice of this at the last second, and tried to flip over it. The arrow stopped, and he hung his head. Everyone was almost sure that he got hit, but they were wrong.

The person hung his head for a moment, and then slowly raised it. The arrow was grasped in between his teeth. Sonic's jaw dropped. 'how is he doing that?!' Sonic thought, awestruck. The person tried to run away again, but Sonic threw a sharp rock at his foot, and the person tripped. He fell on his wrist, and Sonic flinched when he heard a loud snap. His wrist was broken. The person got up, unfased. Sonic couldn't believe this. A guard quickly slashed the person's leg, causing him to yelp in pain. Sonic could have sworn it was a girls voice, but he had never seen a lady even come close to the strength, speed, and agility of him. He hadn't even seen another guy with those talents.

Another guard slipped a pair of handcuffs on his hands, and another tied his legs, giving another guard a chance to bring his shield down on the person's head, knocking him out cold.

"Let's bring him to my parents. See what they have to say." Sonic ordered, and the guards nodded. When they made it back to the castle, Sonic and the guards went to the throne room, where they found his parents doing some work. When his parents saw Sonic, his father immediately said, "About princess Am-." Sonic cut him off by saying, "ACTually, I'm here for another reason.

Sonic stepped aside, revealing the guards that were holding the thief, the thief still being motionless. The guards walked up, and threw the person on the ground in front of Celestia and Discord. (I don't really ship dicelestia, but those are the only names I could think of xD.) "This fool tried to steal a loaf of bread from the village." One of the guards sneered, getting a glare from the queen. Discord immediately tensed up, with an angry look on his face, but Celestia put her hand on his, calming him down a little.

"Remove his mask please." Celestia said calmly. One of the guards ripped the mask off his face, and they were all surprised at what they saw.

It was a girl.

(DUN DUN DUUUUUHHH PLOT TWISTTT. Well, not really. Ever since I said the thief had a rainbow colored tail, it was PREtty obvious who it was xD)

She had Rainbow colored hair with messy bangs, and sparkly magenta eyes.

"Y-you are a lady?" The queen stuttered.

(By the way, they aren't being sexist, there just aren't really many girls who are athletic. So sorry if anyone takes offense to this for some reason.)

"Well, 'lady' isn't the word I would use." The mysterious girl said sarcastically. Sonic just stared in awe. She was the one who was doing all those moves? Sonic pondered.

"Why were you stealing bread?" The queen asked calmly. The girl looked down in shame. "ANSWER HER!" The king boomed, making her flinch a little. "I… Do what I need to survive.." The girl said quietly, looking at the floor. Discord's face softened at this a little. "I never knew my parents.." She continued.

Sonic felt more sympathy than he ever had in his life. He also felt, all fluttery inside. What is this feeling?

"Where do you live?" The king asked. Sonic was surprised at how calm his voice was, especially to a thief. "Well.. I was able to make a home out of clouds in the sky." The girl explained. "Wait, are you…" The queen trailed off when the girl used her handcuffs to cut a hole in the back of her costume, and a pair of bright, blue, wings flared out. The girl smirked.

"Why are you not trying to escape?" The queen asked, with a puzzled look on her face. One of the guards laughed. "There's no way she can escape out of handcuffs and rope." The girl took this as a challenge. "You wanna BET?!" The girl yelled at the guard, and then in one, swift movement, she took her handcuffs, which were somehow not around her wrists anymore, and she used them to slash the rope. She then grabbed both of the guard's spears, and back flipped out of harm's way.

But… She didn't bound for the open doorway.

"W-what h-how.." Sonic stuttered. The girl was hovering near the ground, spinning a key on her finger, and smirking.

Everyone went silent. The girl just rolled her eyes, and handed the spears back to the guards, and sat right down where she was before she escaped.

The king and queen had a puzzled look on their faces. "Why did you not try to escape?" The king asked, confused. "I dunno." The girl shrugged. "I kind of like it here." The girl grinned. The queen thought for a moment, and then smiled. "This is the first, and probably the only time I'm ever going to do this." The queen took a deep breath. "I would like you to join the royal guard!" The queen finished, grinning.

"WHAT?!" The girl, Sonic, the two guards, and the king yelled at the same time.
