Wow, I haven't written a Sonic the Hedgehog fic in a long time. All my past ones I deleted, ha. Anyways, I hope you enjoy reading! It's short but chapter one and onwards will definitely be longer.
R&R!
Enjoy~

Prologue
::..::..::..::..::
Another bullet bit into the path where she stood just seconds before, causing small grains of gravel to flick in the air. More rounds echoed after, lost in building walls, the road, and out of eye's sight. With the moon out of sight, hidden behind thick layers of cloud, it was hard to pinpoint the location of that vermin.
The blonde haired man grunted where he hid behind a low built wall, running a hand through his slicked-back locks in frustration. His mission was simple enough. Find and capture the damn thief that had been stealing valuable jewels. The jewels had a strikingly similar look to those of the Chaos Emeralds. If that was what this thief was after, then it was bad news indeed. Whoever got their hands on them in the past always caused a heck lot of trouble, not to mention the destruction the city was left in. Lucky those Sonic Hero guys were about; otherwise they'd all be doomed.
The blonde shook his head. Now was not the time to be distracted. He had a mission to fulfil and he'd be damned if he didn't complete it… successfully.
A quick flurry of movement caught his attention, and he wasted no time in aiming his gun at the figure; small at least four feet high, wearing complete black with hints of red. The silhouette gave away that it was indeed his target, a hedgehog.
He shot three times, each bullet missing by only a second. The girl was fast; he'd give her that. But she was going down. He'd make sure of it. He had strict orders to not injure her too badly, just enough for her to be caught and arrested. That meant he'd have to get a good shot, hopefully in the leg - just above the knee.
His mind was too distracted and he failed to notice the hedgehog standing just a few yards in from of him, gun pointed steadily at his chest. The look in her eyes was cold enough to make the toughest man shiver.
The blonde finally realised who was standing in front of him, and aimed his gun at her. His gun wavered slightly, doubt coursing through him. At this point range, he'd injure her badly. That was something his boss would not approve of. His options weren't looking too good. At this rate, she'd pull the trigger and he'd be long gone. By the looks of it, her sleek black Hi-Power gun would make a pretty damn big hole. He didn't want to test his theory.
A shot hit just centimetres away from their feet, and the hedgehog jumped back on instinct. The shot surprised the blonde, and his own gun sounded. A shriek followed after. He felt his stomach turn. He knew without a doubt he'd shot her, but where?
The blonde haired man jumped up and frantically searched for his target, but she was nowhere in sight. Fuck. She was injured, how badly he didn't know, and she was still on the loose. Double fuck. His boss was going to have his head.
A/N: So, anyone interested? I thought I'd do something different from the past STH fics I wrote (and deleted) :x
Tell me what you think, and criticism is welcomed!
