Hey there. You may know the story of Sonic the Hedgehog, but you might also be wondering what happens next. This fan fiction takes place two years after the series Sonic X ends. Go watch Sonic X if you want to be more capable of understanding what's happening.

For a description of what Fruiota Hiroshi looks like, go to my profile.

The year was 2011. I was sitting in a chair on my back porch, watching a YouTube video about Dragon Ball Z. The porch was one of the wooden ones that have a little bit of space between the planks, and the planks were about five inches above the ground. It was 5:30 in the warm summer. Suddenly, my iPod 4 shut off even though the battery had been at more than 50% and, when I looked up, I saw an unusual light shining from under the porch about ten feet away from me. The light hadn't been there before, so I walked over to it. I looked down and was shocked at what I saw: a blue gem that was emitting light. I immediately knew it was a Chaos Emerald.

Let me explain my ties to the Chaos Emeralds. About a year ago when Chris (Sonic's first human friend) returned to Earth from being on Sonic's planet, his ship crashed into the street in front of my house. The road was practically demolished, so the destruction was too obvious. The ship stopped when it ran into a Cherry Blossom tree in my neighbor's yard. All of my neighbors came outside to see what had happened, but I was the first one to go up to the strange craft. It opened and Chris walked out. We talked for a bit and he told me that the Chaos Emeralds couldn't keep Sonic's and our dimensions together any longer, so Chris had returned home. He explained how the Chaos Emeralds work and everything.

When I saw the Chaos Emerald under my porch, I broke the board above it using a hatchet that had been left outside by my father. (He had been cutting down a dead tree in our backyard.) Then, I picked up the mystical gem. Suddenly, I felt a fast wind blow through for just a second. When the wind died down, a strange creature stood in front of me. He was about three or four feet tall, his hair on his head was spiky, his fur was black except for a few patches of red, he wore shoes and white gloves, and he looked a bit like Sonic the Hedgehog. I had seen Sonic's feats on the news before.

"Hey, kid. You wanna give me that?" said Shadow the Hedgehog unemotionally. I looked into his eyes and replied, "You mean the Chaos Emerald? No, you can't have it without giving me a good reason."

He grabbed my wrist tightly and shouted, "Is this good enough for you?!" I shook my head and said, "What I meant to say was why do you need this?" I held the Emerald a little higher. "I need it to get home!" exclaimed the talking animal.

"To get home? Explain yourself!" I demanded.

The freak of nature answered, "My name is Shadow. I am not really from this planet, and gathering seven Chaos Emeralds will help get me home. Dr. Robotnik needs me to fend off Sonic and his little friends."

I asked, "So you DO know Sonic. Interesting...are you planning to do Chaos Control?"

"Yes. I already have the other six Emeralds." Shadow opened a bag he had on his back to show me his treasures. "Without all of them, I can never return home again. That's why I need yours."

I said, "Oh, okay then. Here you go!" I handed him the Emerald. "Do you need a place to do whatever you need?"

"A large field would be nice. Do you know of any nearby?" he asked curiously.

"Actually, I do! Just follow me." I answered.

Shadow followed me as I lead him into the woods near my house. The forest is protected as a part of a regional park in Maryland. While we were walking, Shadow explained to me how he got to Earth.

He had been sucked into a black hole and, when the black hole turned into a wormhole, Shadow had passed to the other side and found himself on Earth. Then, the seven Chaos Emeralds came out of the wormhole that was hovering in the air just a few feet above his head. However, the Emeralds floated upwards rather than falling on his head. Then, they spread across the globe. This had taken place nearly eight months ago.

A few minutes later, Shadow randomly asked me, "What's your name?"

"I'm Fruiota Hiroshi, but my friends call me Frui," I replied confidently, "I'm 15 years old."

"Well, nice to meet you, Frui," said the hedgehog.

We walked down a path until we were at the field. It was rectangular in shape, with three sides facing the woods and another side facing the path. On the other side of the path, there was a treeless hill that went down into a lake. The field's dimensions were as follows: 113 feet (34.77 meters) (perpendicular with the path) by 40 feet (12.3 meters) (parallel with the path). The field had absolutely no trees in it, but the grass went up to Shadow's waist.

Shadow took out his bag and placed the Chaos Emeralds in a circle on the grass. The circle was perfect and the glowing Emeralds were evenly spaced. Then, Shadow stepped into the circle. He said, "Farewell, Fruiota Hiroshi."

Suddenly, the Chaos Emeralds floated off of the ground and started circling the black hedgehog. They were at about his chest level, circling him faster and faster until I could only see a blur. Then, Shadow and the Chaos Emeralds began hovering about a foot higher than before (Shadow only hovered a foot above the ground after this). Then, Shadow opened his eyes and his body started shining with a golden glow that surprised me.

I thought to myself, 'Wow, it's a Super Saiyan!'

Shadow looked at me and, as if he read my mind, shouted, "Chaos Control!" This explained the transformation to me. I had heard about Sonic doing Chaos Control, but I'd never seen it in action, even on TV. Then, Shadow waved farewell. As I waved goodbye as well, Shadow began to vanish, but the Chaos Emeralds remained. Then, the hedgehog was gone. The Chaos Emeralds fell to the ground.

I reached to pick up the gems when, suddenly, they lifted into the air again and their circle became larger as they resumed whirling. Suddenly, I saw eight figures appear, as well as a small fairy-like creature and a biplane. The people were Eggman, two robots, Sonic, Amy, Tails, Knuckles, and Cream. The Chao was Cheese, Cream's loyal friend.

Immediately, the newcomers looked around. They all looked confused as if something completely unusual had just happened. Then, they started whispering among themselves. Eggman was talking with his robots, and Sonic was chatting with his friends. They were all discussing the same thing: they were in a new place.

Nervously, I said, "Um...hi." Then, the two groups noticed me.

I hope you've enjoyed the first chapter. It's just one of many in a long timeline, so expect to see more chapters in the future. I will be using real locations in the real world as the settings. However, that doesn't mean that I live near there; I'm just choosing reasonable locations.

For fans of Dragon Ball Z, here are some power levels for all the characters so far. This information will be important for future references. (I came up with these Power Levels.)

Fruiota "Frui" Hiroshi: about 5-6

Shadow: 8

Super Shadow: 80

We haven't seen any of the other characters do anything, as they just appeared. Also, in this fan fiction, Chaos Control multiplies your strength by 10 and your speed by 2. Here are the maximum speeds for all of the characters so far.

Fruiota "Frui" Hiroshi: 12 miles per hour

Shadow: 1,600 miles per hour

Super Shadow: 3,200 miles per hour

As I said earlier, all of the other characters are unknown.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Feel free to keep reading when the next chapter is released! Thanks for reading so far!
