Chapter 1: Prologue

So, how did this happen? The first wave changed the time for a bit in reversing the death of Sally. Which in turn made her robotized. The second wave screwed up the dimensional formats between our world and others in the timeline. At least I had more help in restoring everything. However now, things are a little more complicated but are way more at ease than in the other two timelines of our world.

First off, I got were-hog transformation-thing powers at night. Not a fan at first but I got used to it over time. Then Eggman somehow has a huge empire with minions of all different backgrounds; Mobians, Robians, and Overlanders/Humans too. At least everyone has their families somewhat together, right?

Well, not in my case. I apparently had another family other than the one I knew, or I thought I knew, that relates back all the way to the Great War. Even to the point where it's believed that we were the cause of it in the first place! Don't understand? Well, I'll explain.

It was supposed to be a simple mission: get in, destroy some robots, rescue captives, get the emerald, and get out. However, that's not what happened. That's not what happened at all.

It was night time, and Gaia blessed my Uncle Chuck for creating a device to keep me normal for certain night missions where I needed speed for. I was with Tails and T-Pup, Sally, Amy, Antoine, and Nicole while Rotor covered us with the security problems in Sky Patrol. We heard that there were some captives of a rebel group in the jungles of Mazuri. Considering the fact that the Eggbase there had a Chaos Emerald power unit, the rescue went from helping one group to helping two, talk about convenience! When we got there, Sally along with Antoine and Nicole went to free the captives; while me along with Tails, T-Pup and Amy went for the emerald.

When we got to the holding cell pod for the gem, there was a figure there already trying to get the emerald out. It was another Mobian, but it didn't look like one of the workers on the base. When I got a closer look, it was none other than Scourge, my anti-self, and he was trying to steal the emerald! I ran at him, knocking him down.

"What are you doing free Scourge?!", I asked him.

"Hey! Get offa me Blue! I need to get that emerald!", he told me. "I'm not here to steal it, I was sent to obtain it!"

Taking a look at the green hedgehog on the ground, he definitely didn't look the same as he did the last time I saw him. He still had his red sunglasses, but he wore a long leather black vest where the bottom was ripped and flame'd colored. He had long fingerless navy gloves that had belt-like-straps at the end on his biceps. He was wearing a belt that had some compartments in it, and a holder for a weapon of sorts though there wasn't any in it, though. The only other similar thing he wore that was similar to his original look was the shoes, but instead of sneakers, they were boots of the same design.

"Ha! Like we're gonna believe that you're supposed to be in the No Zone prison right now. I'm actually surprised that you were able to escape."

"No really, I'm not lying this time. I was hired to get the emerald."

"Uh-huh, sure. Where are they situated; Eggman's Empire, G.U.N., rebels, Freedom Fighters?"

"None of them, they're a human and said that they'll help me live free from the authorities if I helped them. When I asked who they worked for, they said "no one."'

Now I was intrigued as to what Green was saying. A human needed to emerald, and they weren't a part of any organization fighting in the battle. What human needed a Chaos Emerald!? I let him go and saw Tails trying to open the cell pod. But he couldn't figure it out.

"That cell glass is pretty thick. I don't think that if Tails here can't hack the system, that Amy will be able to break it open.", Scourge said.

"Well, we'll never know unless we try!", Amy told us.

All of a sudden, a huge red and yellow hammer appeared and hit the glass. The room shook, but the cell was still intact.

"Okay then, upgrade time.", she said.

Amy's hammer grew at least three times as big as her regular one. Note to self, don't miss any more dates or that's what I'll be facing in the future.

"You look like you saw a ghost man, ya okay?", Scourge asked.

"Yeah, just making a mental note on to not make Amy mad anymore.", I answered.

"Hmm... good point."

BANG! BANG! BANG!

"Whelp, this cell is officially hammer proof.", said Amy.

"What!? How in the name of Chaos is that even possible!? Your hammer is made of magic!", said Tails. Poor guy still couldn't find the code to open the cell.

"Yeah, but it doesn't mean that it can destroy everything!"

Great, now we can't get to emerald. I hear robots coming down the hall, hopefully, Sally and the others got the prisoners out.

"Princess to Blue Blur, come in Sonic." Speaking of Sally...

"This is Blue Blur, didja get the captives out Sal?", I asked.

"Yep, Rotor and Antoine are helping them onto the ship. Where are you guys in your mission?", she asked.

"Well... Tails is still trying to open the pod, and it's apparently hammer proof so there goes plan B."

"Amy's hammer can't break it? Even with her upgrade?"

"Yep, even with the upgrade."

"Well, that's not good. Any other complications?"

"None so far, although I hear some robots coming down the hall, we may need to try and open the cell pod by force if it doesn't open soon..." BOOM! "What the heck!?"

"Sonic, what was that!? Is everything okay!?"

"We're fine, that was just Scourge throwing a bomb he had at the incoming robots."

"Well, that's gone- WAIT WHAT!? What is Scourge doing there!?"

"He escaped prison and was, I guessed, hired by a human who needed a chaos emerald. Though he said the human doesn't work for any of the organizations involved in the battle against Eggman, so I don't think that we have to worry about it."

"O-okay then, well if he's gonna help you, then work with him. But get the emerald no matter what happens."

"Roger Sally, Sonic out." I hung up and went back to see what was going on.

It turned out that the cell pod was automatically changing the password so Tails couldn't unlock it. We better get that cell open soon or else we'll have to deal with a hoard of robots which'll make this more difficult than needed. Lucky for us Scourge had some small bombs in his belt, which he used to destroy some of the robots. But I don't know if he has enough for an entire army. After the explosion, alarms sounded and the doors started to close in on the room. Not wanting my friends to be trapped, I grabbed them and threw them out of the room.

"Sonic! What are you doing!", shouted Amy and Tails.

"Saving you guys; look tell Sally to get the Sky Patrol up and running. Scourge and I will meet you when it gets here, okay.", I told them.

"Alright, be careful Sonic.", Amy told me.

"Don't worry, I will be."

As they run off, I look back at the control panel and try to figure out how to unlock it. Scourge comes over and hands me a device to plug in, so I did. It started to unscramble the program, unlocking the controls. With that, we were able to open the cell pod, but I remember what Scourge said about him and the human. I take the emerald out and Scourge blows up the door. Outside, however, were robots. Lots and lots of robots. Scourge threw a bomb at them and we ran. Alarms were blaring, lights were flashing, and the emerald was unnaturally glowing and was becoming really hot. I put it in my bag so I wouldn't burn my hand.

"Exactly how many grenades do you have Scourge?"

"Clearly not enough. Listen, I know the princess said for you to bring the emerald back, but I need it to help the person I'm working for. They want nothing to do with war, in fact, they used to work for G.U.N. but left a long time ago. They are working on a project to help their friend who's sick. They said a Chaos Emerald would help them a lot."

Then fighter bots were blocking our only way to getting to the ship. We tried to fight them off, but it was getting very tiring very fast. Eventually, Scourge ran out of bombs, so we started to fight head on. Then out of nowhere came this streak of white, in fact, I was certain that it had a blue/green hue to it. It was so fast and destroyed many of the robots as if nothing could touch it without being burned to a crisp. But I couldn't figure it out for sure because the next thing I knew I got blasted by a robot and blacked out right after Scourge called out for me.

And then the real story began.
