The morning light rise after the dark

The sky is blue

The grass is green

And the hedgehogs run.

After long time fighting for the peace they finally they got it, long twelve months had passed, everyone walk their own path thanks to the peace. Now they had time to continue their lives, but the family was used to be one day, it was almost gone.

Tails spent his time building tech things and going to expos, Sonic keep visiting everyone time to time, while sometimes get lost for some adventures, Rouge still likes to steal gems and bother Knuckles who take now seriously the guard of the chaos emeralds except one, the green, which Shadow always kept close to him and which used to disappeared to travel around the world seeing all the places that Maria used to talk about and only visiting Rouge a few times. Now with Eggman retirement, the old cycle was done and the epic battles ended.

But nothing last forever and even the peace have an end.

All begins with Tails, as usual he was playing with the computers and a new radar that he builds in his free time, then he found a weird and huge base; it looked like an Eggman base, but he knew that every base were destroyed after his retirement, but who would trust him, with any hesitation he saved the coordinates and fly to find Sonic and tell the news, he got lucky cause that day like a good coincidence everyone were on town and Sonic visited him that day.

Sonic was running a race with Shadow not far from there, Tails tried to chase Sonic with Tornado. "Sonic!" Tails shout, expecting to see Sonic slowing down, so they can talk about this strange and maybe dangerous finding.

"Hey buddy!" Sonic answered but nothing about slowing down. Shadow was just ahead of him and Sonic would not let him win this time, he instead of slowing he speeded up reaching the sound speed in no time, giving a win face to Shadow while advanced him but in less time Shadow reached him again, obviously Tails in Tornado couldn't keep track of them, the plane couldn't resist that kind of speed and he resign to wait till the end of the race, or better till Sonic ended racing. Finally they finished it by declaring it as a tie, since they always match each other speed in no time and the world seems to be small for a good race for them.

When they stopped in some place Shadow asked with some interest "What did Tails wanted?" he said waiting for some new from Tail. "It's what I'm going to discover, want to race to home?, eh Shads" Sonic asked trying to bother Shadow and see if he want to run again. "I have better things to do" Shadow contemptuously says and then he cast a chaos control, with some bolts of green chaos energy he left Sonic in a blink. "Oh well" Sonic shrugged, then he ran to his home getting in no time and he get in seeing Tails at the front of his computer in some way busy.

"Hey Tails, what's up?" Sonic say while walking to him.

"You won't believe what I found!" Tails said with excitement and continued "A base of Eggman and it's huge!, well at least it's what I can see whit the radar" while showing the location in the monitor. Proud Tails was because he builds that radar and now it's giving good information.

"Wow, it looks huge indeed, let's take a look more closely" Sonic said it with the intention to see it personally and looking to Tails like saying get the plane ready.

"Wait, what? Do you really want to go? It could be dangerous without any previously research" a little scare Tails said.

And some voice interrupted coming from the kitchen.

"Danger, let's go" Knuckles say excited. Getting into the house Rouge says "Traveling without me honey?" all this looked like everyone where close and ready for some action.

"Tails found a base, want to go?" Sonic said before the echina could talk.

"Sure, I'm starving by the way" she answered happy, while the echina offered some lunch.

"It's not a huge base" Shadow interrupted and continued "It's full of a lot of big things" he added while pointing at the monitor. I wonder what is in there… Shadow thought.

Where did he come from? Tails asked himself, a little scared of Shadow.

"Then let's find out what's there" Sonic already at the door said.

This new adventure would bring unexpected things but for sure it would bring all the gang together again.
