This is the first fan fic I've ever made, out of a lot. Of course it's about Cream, who's my favorite character. Note: This story is Tails and Cream supportive, so be careful if dislike the couple. No characters I have made are in this story. This first part may be a little confusing, but you'll get it later.

Cream's Destiny

The day draws to a close for Cream the Rabbit. Today was nothing special, played with her Chao a little and had some fun with her friends, nothing unusual. Her mom tucks her in for the night and leaves Cream with her Chao Cheese and Chocola. She wonders what tomorrow could have in store for her. She waits in her bed for sleep to overcome her, but has no idea how she just had the last day of her normal life.

Deep in a forest, never been explored by humans, awakens the once dead ultimate lifeform. Shadow the Hedgehog brushes through the trees and foliage. Weeks of recovery since his fall from ARK have exhausted him, but his power is finally restored. The only reason he even survived was because of his Super form's protection. Today he leaves this jungle. Before he moves on though, he senses something. A power source, not far from him, a power to great to be any normal object.

"A Chaos Emerald!" he gasps. With one of those, he could be at full potential, being able to used Chaos Control and Chaos Spear again. He runs in the direction of its aura. He spends a few minutes searching, but there, out in a suspiciously open area, sits a green Chaos Emerald. He picks it up, now he was set, but suddenly, he hears footsteps approaching; robotic foot steps. He turns to where there coming from, and a small walker with a round bald man in it steps out of the trees. His face was too hard to forget.

"Eggman."

Doctor Eggman, in his personal Egg Walker, gives a small smile to Shadow.

"Let me guess, you want this Emerald don't you?" asked Shadow.

"Of course! Why else would I waste my time coming here? But it is nice to see you again Shadow."

Eggman fires a shot from the middle of his walker. Shadow leaps out of the way, lands, and charges at Eggman. Shadow curls into a ball and zooms through the walker's legs. The legs zap a little, but Eggman turns his whole cockpit around and fires at Shadow. Shadow zips past the shots, and uses his Chaos Emerald he just got to Chaos Spear at Eggman. The walker isn't fast enough to move out of the way and in a flash it explodes, with Eggman in the ruins. Shadow gives one of his mischievous chuckles, and moves on. What to do next? Well, the first thing he should do is reveal himself to the others, and the one person who he still has a score to settle with is first. Sonic.

The sun rises to fast. Before she knows it, Cream has to get out of bed. The sun blinds her big eyes, but she goes to the window and sticks her head out. She leans against the windowsill so her head is upside down and her ears dangle down below. She smiles at the sun. Today feels like an important day, some how it just seems like something important is going to happen. She pulls her head out and skips over to her bed, where her Chao still sleep.

"Time to wake up, Cheese, Chocola." She gently shakes them a little. Their little eyes open slowly, but they quickly get up and are ready for the day. Cream gets herself ready, then leads them down stairs where she can smell breakfast. Her mom has it already set out. Cream hops in a chair.

"Good morning Mom!" she says to Vanilla.

"Good morning Cream." she replies. Cream rushes through her breakfast, still watching her manners of course. Afterwards, Cream takes her Chao outside to play. They play a variety of games, such as hide-n-seek and catch with a ball, since there isn't that much to do. During the ball game, Cream throws the ball at Chocola; he puts his arms up to catch it put it slips by and bounces off his head. Cream giggles, but Chocola doesn't go get the ball. Neither does Cheese. They just stare out into the distance, like something's there that interests them is there.

"Huh? What is it?" She looks where their looking, it doesn't look like anything is over there; it seems like a random area. Suddenly, her Chao's wings flap and they begin to fly in that direction. "Wait, where are you going?"

Her Chao don't listen, they just keep going in that direction, like something's pulling them that way. Cream chases after them, forgetting that her mom has no idea that she's going somewhere.

Cream follows her Chao quite a while; she can't seem to catch up with them not matter how fast she runs.

"Wait, please stop!" But they don't even look at her, just keep moving. They've reached a forest, a familiar one. Cream looks ahead and sees Knuckles floating island, which she thinks is called Angel Island. Her Chao begin to fly up towards it. Cream flaps her ears and follows them. Why would they go there? She didn't even know they knew this place! When they reach the island, the Chao continue to move ahead. Cream struggles to keep up with them. It's not long before they can see the shrine of the Master Emerald ahead. Cream doesn't see Knuckles anywhere. Her Chao don't seem to care, they just keep moving.

"Stop please!" she tries to call to them, to get them to stop, but they don't. She almost trips on her way up to stairs to the Master Emerald. Her Chao reach the top. Cream tries to follow, but gets stopped.

"Hey! Cream!" yells Knuckles from the bottom of the stairs. He must have been on the other side of the shrine. "What are you doing here?!"

"I'm sorry Knuckles, but Cheese and Chocola are acting weird and lead me here!"

"Well take them and get out of here! This isn't a place to be playing around."

"I know, I'll try to get them out of here, sorry." Cream makes it to the top of the stairs. "Come on, let's go somewhere else"

Her Chao still don't pay attention to her, they just stare at the Master Emerald, like their looking at their reflection on it. Then, suddenly, a voice comes out of no where, a soft voice that seems friendly, and familiar to Knuckles.

"You have served your purpose, thank you, you may be free now" Says the voice. Cream's Chao blink out of their state and their faces turn back to normal; they turn around and smile at Cream.

"Are you guys okay? Why did you lead me here?" She asks them. They just stare at her, like they have no idea what she's talking about. The Master Emerald behind them begins to glow. Knuckles runs up to them.

"What's going on? And that voice, it seems familiar" he says. The sky darkens, for what seems to be no reason. The Master Emerald glows still, even brighter in the dark. Out of the top of the Emerald shoots a green beam of light and a figure appears inside of it. Cream is sacred now and Knuckles just stares in confusion. The figure is an Echidna, it's obvious, and it is girl with the ancient tribes clothing. She smiles at Cream.

"Tikal!" Knuckles exclaims.

"Who?" asks Cream, but Knuckles doesn't get a chance to answer before Tikal speaks.

She says, "Cream, am I correct," Cream nods, "Good, I'm Tikal and I have something very important to tell you. I asked your Chao to bring you here. Chaos, a water spirit, used to be the guardian of Chao in my generation, but now, Chaos has moved on and can't protect them anymore. Now, people can cause harm to them and there's no one that can help them. So, we have looked out for someone with a strong, clean heart and is very kind to Chao. After searching for a while, Cream, we found you. Today is the day we grant you the powers Chaos had of sensing danger to Chao and being able to call on their help whenever necessary."

Tikal stretches out her arms and a few green sparkles come out of her hand and touch her. They tickle her a little, but she feels refreshed from them.

"Cream, you are now the new guardian of Chao." She continues. "You are now in charge of stopping all danger that can be fall upon them. This is a big responsibility and we hope you can handle this. I'm sorry if this is sudden, but I don't have time to explain anymore. Good luck and I hope you do well."

The line dims away and Tikal disappears with it. Even when she's gone and everything goes back to normal, Cream still stares at that spot. What just happened?

"Whoa…" says Knuckles, confused, "You… Cream… if what she just said is true, than you're the new guardian of Chao!"

"I am? What's that?" She asks.

"What's that?! Cream, you protect Chao from danger, like I protect the Master Emerald."

"Really?! So…I don't get it."

Knuckles sighs. "Cream, you're in charge of Chao. Like yours, if anything happens to them you have to stop it or help. That's your new job"

"I-," She's interrupted by the ground shaking.

"Great, what now?" says Knuckles.

Over the island flies one of Eggman's battleships, flying by. Cream gets a weird feeling in her and begins to run in the direction its going.

"Wait, where are you going?" asks Knuckles, "We don't have to stop Eggman every time he flies by."

"I know, but I have feeling I should follow it. That it's going to do something." She replies. She continues to run after it, Knuckles follows behind her.

Shadow jumps out of his hiding spot, a tree not far from the shrine. Knuckles and Cream had just run by. He had seen the whole thing. He'd come here looking for Sonic and hid so no one else would see him, but he ended up seeing Cream's initiation as the new guardian of Chao. That ship that had flown by made him made him curious. Maybe if he followed them to the ships destination it would bring him back with Eggman, who he had more issues to cover with, and Sonic. Shadow follows slowly behind them, making sure not to be spotted.

So? That's the begining.
