Note: Hi everyone! I'm back to writing again! I don't know how long I'll be here though...but anywho, I'm revising some chapters in this fic since some of them are...horrible. Enjoy!
1. United Again Part One
The early afternoon was calm and quiet. You could even call it your typical "perfect day". The sky was cloudless and a nice shade of blue. The winds were soft and neither cold nor hot like the weather and there didn't seem to be a single care in the world, especially for a certain blue hedgehog.
Sonic the Hedgehog let out a relaxed breath of air as he and his friend, Miles "Tails" Prower laid on the grassy hills a few miles away from Station Square. He crossed his hands behind his head and closed his eyes, his smile never leaving his face.
"Sonic," Tails said after a few moments of silence. Sonic opened one of his emerald green eyes to tell his friend that he was listening. "…don't you think it's weird that we're relaxing when we know that Senka is still out there? She's enraged that you killed Kazu and she'll stop at nothing until she does the same thing to you."
Sonic chuckled. "Relax, Tails. Senka can't do anything without Kazu guiding her. Don't you worry about a thing."
Tails glanced at the city below. "I still have a bad feeling about this, Sonic."
"You should relax once in a while, Tails. Ya can't spend your whole life worrying."
"I know but there's so many people out there who want to kill you and take over the world. There isn't just Senka, but there's also Eggman…and that strange guy Sonar…"
Sonic opened his eyes, his smile fading from his face. "Yeah…that guy." He remembered the lizard perfectly. After all, he was the one who told him the most puzzling sentence he heard up till now.
You were just like your father.
"What did he mean by father?" He asked himself in a near whisper.
"Did you say something, Sonic?" Asked Tails as he glanced back at his hedgehog friend.
Sonic remained silent for a moment. His smile came back after. "Naw. It's nothing, Tails. Really."
Before Tails could question him, he saw a red figure running towards them. He stood up. "Sonic, look! It's Knuckles! He seems to be coming from Station Square!"
"What is he doing in the city instead of his little hole?" Sonic wondered as he stood up.
"If Knuckles hears you call Angel Island his 'little hole'-" The fox stopped when Knuckles the Echidna stopped right in front of them.
"Heya, Knuckles," Greeted Sonic. "What's up?"
The echidna stared at his friend as if he was the only one who didn't know the news. "Oh, nothing much, really. Well," He paused to catch his breath. "except for the fact that there are some unknown creatures coming this way!"
"Unknown creatures?" Repeated Tails. "Are they in the city?"
"Not anymore. They saw me and gave chase. I think I lost them."
"So they weren't any threat? They just…started chasing you?"
"You make it sound like it's a game of tag, Tails."
"So, these creatures," Sonic began. "they want nothing to do with the people in Station Square. Only you."
"Correction," A voice rang around the three. "We're here for all three of you." A gush of wind blew around them and died down. The friends found themselves surrounded by ten or twelve creatures similar to Kazu. They all had black fur and red eyes but they were all of different species. One of them, a hedgehog stepped forward. His eyes were not red, like the rest, but a cobalt blue, like Sonic's fur.
"Greetings Sonic, Tails, Knuckles," The creature began. "I'm Commander Azul. We have orders to take you to our master."
"Who is this master?" Tails asked.
"That is none of your concern. Now I suggest you come peacefully if you do not want to get hurt."
"I don't take orders from you." Knuckles threw a punch at the hedgehog. Azul easily grabbed his fist and threw him onto the ground near Sonic and Tails
"Seize them," Azul ordered.
The three backed away as the Black Chaoses surrounded them.
"Please tell me you have an idea, Sonic." Whispered Tails.
"And don't get a stupid idea like mine." Added Knuckles.
Sonic smirked. "Sorry, Knuckles, but I'm stealing one from your book!" In a blink, Sonic curled into a ball and knocked three creatures down. Knuckles turned around and punched three more while Tails knocked two with a flying kick. They flew in for another attack only to realize that they couldn't move at all.
"Enough!" Azul was holding an obsidian-like rock in one of his hands and was pointing it at the heroes.
Tails's eyes widened when he saw the rock in the Black Chaos's hand. That stone. It looks like the one Kazu had!
Azul tilted the rock so it's face would be facing the ground and the heroes fell onto the ground. "I wanted to make this easy, but you leave me no choice."
What is going on? Sonic thought as two Black Chaoses grab his friends. He felt another grab him from behind and knock him out.

It was pitch black in an alley of Westopolis. It was silent until a metallic buzz slowly grew in sound. Eleven pairs of robotic red eyes appeared in the darkness of the alley, but it was already too late.
"I found them," A voice rang from the entrance of the alley. "They seem to be trying to repair themselves." A silhouette of a hedgehog walked into the passageway and eventually disappeared with the rest of the shadows. "It's pointless." The figure snapped his fingers and his hands were surrounded by a yellow light. Shadow the Hedgehog smirked at the robots before lunging at them.
Shadow turned into his ball form in mid-air and shot himself towards the group of robots knocking them all onto the concrete floor and leaving them dazed.
"AUTO REPAIRING." One of the robots said in a robotic voice.
"You G.U.N robots never learn." The black hedgehog punched the robot who spoke, taking off his head with one blow. He pulled out a glowing green object and braced himself for the rest of the attacking robots.
"Chaos Spear!" The yellow arrows pierced through five robots, killing them in an instant. He turned into a ball once again and spinballed his way through the center of four robots.
"Chaos Control!" Shadow teleported in time to dodge an oncoming punch from behind. He reappeared behind the final robot who attempted to attack him from behind. Before the robot could react, the Ultimate Life Form punched a hole right through it's chest. He watched as the final robot tumbled onto the rest of the injured group, causing them to explode.
"Mission complete." Shadow spoke in his wrist communicator as he walked out of the alley. Rouge the Bat and E-123 Omega were waiting for him at the entrance.
"You know the commander told us to dismantle the robots, not destroy them." Rouge told the hedgehog as they walked away.
"They aren't going to be able to repair them." Answered Shadow. "The virus already took complete control over them."
Rouge sighed. "There goes our paycheck again." She rolled her eyes as they began heading back to G.U.N headquarters.
"You must be angered by something." Omega spoke to Shadow in his monotone voice. "You annihilated those pieces of metal with pure anger."
"Hmph, I always fight that way." Answered the black hedgehog.
"Oh leave him, Omega," Rouge said. "Our hedgehog here is trying to cope with some new feelings that he's never felt before."
"And what is that?" Asked the robot.
"Nothing." Shadow answered in a harsh voice. "Rouge is just being an idiot."
"Oh it's not my fault Amy dear is chasing after some other hedgehog, Honey."
"I wouldn't care if Rose is chasing a faker or a freaking butterfly, alright?!" Shadow snapped.
"A conclusion has been made." Omega spoke. "Shadow has feelings for the pink hedgehog who goes by the name of Amy Rose."
Rouge tried hard not to laugh out loud.
"Let's just head back to HQ!" Shadow turned around to leave when a black light surrounded him. "What the-" Shadow stopped when he found himself and the rest of his team were surrounded by creatures who looked like Black Chaoses.
"Who are you?" Demanded Rouge.
"That's none of your concern." A female black bat with pearl white eyes flew down in front of them, a black stone in one of her hands. We just need you three to come with us quietly."
"Omega!" Rouge ordered.
"Annihilate!" Omega transformed his hands into cannons to attack when the bat raised the stone, freezing the robot like his hedgehog partner.
"Commander Blanche!" A Black Chaos stepped forward. "The Chaos Control machine is ready."
'Chaos Control machine?' Rouge thought.
"Good." The bat answered. "Bring the bat as well." Three Black Chaoses bigger than normal grabbed the three and knocked them out with one hit.

"I knew he wasn't going to come!" Sunflower the Hedgehog wailed before blowing her nose on Amy's hankie. She was sitting on a park bench in between Amy Rose and Cream the Rabbit, crying over her ruined date with Espio the Chameleon.
"Please stop crying Miss Sunflower." Cream spoke. "He wouldn't want to see you like this."
"He doesn't want to see me at all!" Sunflower corrected before sobbing again.
"Hey, if he does matter to you, you won't give up until he goes on a date with you." Said Amy. "Sonic does this all the time to me. You just need to be perseverant! You can't just give up on the first failed date!"
Sunflower dabbed her eyes with Amy's hankie. "Thanks, guys. You really know how to make me feel better. I'm just going to assume that Espio got busy at the agency."
"If Espio couldn't make it, we can most definitely hang out with you!" Cream suggested.
"Yeah!" Amy stood up. "We can have our own girl's day out! I need to go shopping anyways. What do you say, Sunflower?"
Sunflower nodded in agreement. "Okay!" She too stood up. Before they could head downtown, a black disc came from behind Cream and knocked her out.
"Cream!" The two hedgehogs were surrounded by a swarm of Black Chaoses before they could help out their friend. Amy pulled out her hammer in case of any sudden attack.
"Attacking us won't do you any good." A female black hedgehog with pink eyes stepped forward.
"Who are you and want do you want from us?" Amy demanded.
"Commander Pinku." The hedgehog answered as she grabbed Cream. A vine grabbed her by the wrist.
"You're not taking anyone here." Sunflower answered before lifting up the park bench with her mind and throwing it at the commander. Pinku smirked as she kicked it back at the yellow hedgehog, knocking her out in an instant.
"Sunflower!" Amy lifted her hammer to attack when Pinku lifted her index finger, signaling her to stop.
"Ah. I wouldn't do that if I was you." She pointed at the Black Chaoses pointing their guns at Cream and Sunflower.
Amy clenched her hammer, but immediately dropped it. Five Black Chaoses surrounded and easily captured the pink hedgehog.

"125…150." Espio the Chameleon counted the daily profits of the Chaotix Detective Agency. "Not bad."
"Not bad?!" Shouted Vector the Crocodile as he banged his hands on the wooden table they were sitting around. "We could've gotten more outta that case if Charmy didn't tackle down the wrong guy!"
"I already said I was sorry!" Charmy Bee exclaimed before bonking Vector's head.
"Hey watch what you're doing, bee!"
Espio rolled his eyes. "Are we done for the day then?"
"What's with the rush, Espio? You have ninja school or something?"
"He probably has a hot date today!" Said Charmy.
"Don't say weird things, Charmy!" Vector grabbed the flying bee to cover his mouth. "Espio doesn't do that kind of stuff!"
"Actually, Charmy's right." Corrected Espio as he stood up.
"What?" The crocodile let go of Charmy who began flying around him singing "I knew it! I knew it!". "You, Espio, the lone wolf ninja…have a hot date?"
"Well, I think it's a hot date." Espio answered. "And ninjas can go on dates as well."
"Who's your hot date, Espio?" Charmy asked as he began flying around the chameleon. Espio caught him by the stinger.
"Well, if you really want to know-" Espio was interrupted by a crash that knocked down the front door. A group of Black Chaoses casually walked in behind a black crocodile with green eyes.
"Sorry to barge in," the crocodile began. "but I have some business to deal with you three."
"You could've just knocked." Espio muttered. "Who are you?"
"I'm Commander Vert," The crocodile answered. "and we need to see you now!"
"We're closed!" Barked Vector. "If you want to schedule an appointment just call 1-800-" The Black Chaos commander shot a green whip at the talking crocodile. The whip transformed into a cage when it touched him. "Hey! Can't you just wait for tomorrow? We open at nine!" Vector yelled as he shook the cage bars.
"Vector are you okay?" Charmy shouted.
"Well, I'm trapped in a cage and our own clients are probably going to kidnap me-" Vector twitched. "Of course I'm not okay!"
"We'll get you out, Vector, after we mop the agency with these guys." Espio raised his hands, ready for a fight.
"We'll see who mops the floor with who!" Vert threw a punch at Espio who grabbed his fist before it collided with him.
"Sorry, croc, but I'm late for a date with Sunflower," Espio threw Vert's fist down. "and I don't want to miss it."
"I guess you're going to have to reschedule!" The commander snapped his jaws towards the chameleon followed by several punches. Espio attempted to swiftly dodge all the attacks.
"Uh, a little help, Charmy?" Espio yelled before getting punched in the face.
"Ah! Right, Espio!" Charmy charged towards Vert, stinger poised, but he was easily grabbed by the Black Chaos. Vert easily threw him against Vector's cage, knocking him out cold.
"Yo, Charmy!" Vector shouted. "Get up! You need to help Espio!"
Espio sat up as he rubbed his head. "Some help he is…" He was grabbed by Vert and thrown into the cage along with Charmy.
"Now let's head back to headquarters," Commander Vert ordered before leaving the ruined detective agency.
