This is a test now, because I see that the Sonic fanfic community is pretty much like I imagined it. Open, free, and excepting of original characters. So, here's my grand masterpiece, that's been stewing in my head since I was like 7. Remember, I don't own none of Sega's awesome stuff, but I do own my own. Which is probably what this whole first chapter is.

Beautiful Beast

Well, it was official. Yea, late in the night, the realization came to him. A young white furred hedgehog woke up in the dead of darkness, in a huge luxurious bed. His heavy panting showed just how bad of a realization it was. It was not just a dream, he could see it himself. He jumped out of the bed, ran to his bathroom in his room, and turned on the light, looking in the mirror.

"You bastard. You've become a bitchy, moany, sad little rich boy, who thinks he's a punk. Though he isn't." gasped the albino hedgehog.

He got himself a glass of water, and went back to bed, trying to cast that fear out of his head. Was he a poser? Was he spoiled? Hell yea, he was a poser. Oh, HELL YES, he's spoiled. He'll have to deal with that in the morning, though.

The Morning. Yea.

He woke up, his fur looking awful, but he just shook his head, and it fanned out to its normal look. It went back, but not is harsh spikes like the original Sonic spikes. Long, like the new look. He had bangs like Sephiroths. Best way I can describe that. He took out some wide legged butterscotch plaid pants and a short sleeved button up, that was much too big for him, of the same color, slipping them on in a tired funk. Unbuttoned as always.

He got himself some toast, and he grumbled as he slammed into a wall which his mistook for a very white doorway. Once he woke up, he took his morning stroll through his house. Well, it was more like a huge mansion. Actually, it pretty much was.

He heard a knock at the door, and ran to go get it. He opened it, expecting something extraordinary. Instead, he got his crazy echidna buddy Felix. He shrugged, letting him in anyway, and jumping on the big comfortable couch in the living room. Felix plopped in the chair across from him, kicking back, lavishly.

"Hey, did you hear, Seno? Ashley got in the slammer." cooed Felix in his smooth, persuading tongue, as he picked at his camo army jacket. He was wearing that, some green fatigue pants, and an army shirt. He loved the military.

Seno laughed a bit, then said "Wait, wait… Ashley in the big house? What'd he do?"

Felix got up, sensing they're going to go smooze somewhere "He wailed on a bunch of cops, because they took his board that his bro gave to him."

They stepped out the door, locking it, and heading down the long driveway. Yup, it was one of those hot, lazy, ball scratching days. 'Scuse my scaring everyone. So where were they headed? The mall, of course. They were supposed to be in school really, but they really didn't care. Though it was kinda unfulfilling being able to buy things while you're out, and not just be ghetto with it.

"You know, I keep feeling that I'm preppy, even when I don' want to be." sighed Seno, sorrowfully.

Felix patted his best friend since 3rd grad on the back, and assured him "Look, it's not what you have, and how you look. It's your attitude. You're the least preppy person I know… besides Ashley. Ashley is kick ass."

They lived in a big bustling ocean view city, which is quite familiar to all. Hey, it is where the famous 'City Escape' as they called it took place. That was two years ago, though. They still remember laughing at the tight-assed efforts to catch their old friend. That was one of the fondest memories they had, really.

Now they were just two disgruntled teens looking for their next thrill. Once they got to the mall, they found it, in fact. Felix got an idea of how to have some fun that would benefit everyone… except for one major asshole that worked at Game Stop. This involved jelly filled donuts, fake badges, altered janitor suits, and much more of the like. Once it all came together, it was a plan of beauty, though.

They stepped up into Game Stop, smug looks of authority on their faces, dressed up like fake cops. They began going through the stack of games, and other things, but overall knocking most of it over. The manager asshole ran over, and tried to stop them.

"What the hell are you cops doing? I don't remember a hedgehog cop, or an echidna cop, either!" he exclaimed

Seno stood as tall as a three foot something hedgehog could, and growled "You questioning us, boy? Listen here. We're new to the force here, but back in Brooklyn, you'd be done right now."

Felix grinned in a ghastly haze "Yea. So cooperate, and don't get beat the hell down."

The manager calmed himself, then asked once more, a little more civil this time "What's the problem, officers?"

Seno pulled up his fake cop belt, and spoke roughly "We heard reports of drugs in the vicinity. We're searching your store."

The manager was about to complain, when Felix pulled up a bag full of white powder, calling across "I found some coke. Let's run this bad boy in."

They grabbed hold of the stuttering manager, hand cuffed him with some real cuffs that Seno never had a use for, and began hauling him off. Seno took the manager off to some unknown place, because on the way he blindfolded him, ignoring all the weird testament of how this was cruel and unusual punishment. Felix got to work on the rest of the plan, right away. He began to lay fake badges in a trail back to the store, and donuts right beside them, and started planting remote control fireworks everywhere.

Here's pretty much how the plan played out. Seno had forced the manager to put on a fake cop uniform, saying that they'd forget this whole thing if he did their rounds for them. He was blindfolded again and quickly smuggled back into the store. Then, the REAL cops would find the donuts and badges, while Seno and Felix contended to hide merchandise in the store, saying they were still searching. Then they got to a pay phone, called in, and reported him for stealing. In short, the cops followed the trail, found the manager, saw him in the getup, and chased him through the mall.

They eventually caught him for 'stealing' and impersonation of a cop. Seno and Felix had long been hiding. They had put their normal clothes back on, and began laughing as they took him away. He'd get out, because the case would be dismissed. Besides, he began yelling to the cops that they had framed him, once he recognized them. Of course they didn't believe him. All in all, the cops got pay, Seno and Felix had fun, the gamers of the world have one less prick to deal with, and that manager is out of a job. See? Good for everyone. 'Cept the manager.

After hanging out at the mall for about an hour, they were bored. They actually missed the guy. Not much, though. Then there was a crash through one of the big expensive skylights. Seno ran up there to go see, Felix really not liking getting involved with stuff like that. Seno's eyes grew wide, as he stared at the fox in front of him. She had white fur like his, and it seeped into orange around her ears, and tail. She had the fur on her head loose and flowing, the red, orange, and yellow streaks blending into beautiful colors with the overall white it did boast. She was wearing a trench, with some studded bracelets, some black and red bondage pants, and a seductive corset top. She gave a slight huff, and turned towards him.

"Hey, do you think this would be a good place for a headquarters, whoever you are?" the fox questioned, blowing it airily.

He thought that was quite rude though "Ummm, my name is Seno, and yea, it would be a pretty nice place." The voice he had used was between anger and polite tone.

She grinned, and pulled out a kwan dao, which had a blade design of a phoenix, and started to figure what she was going to do, right away. Seno looked at the weapon, then looked at her. Then his gaze just kinda shifted over to a sporting goods store. Then he made a break for it, diving in before the girl would spot him. The alpine-furred fox smirked now, as the red pupils of her eyes bounced around, spotting potential targets. Where were the police when you needed them?

He ran through the store, looking for the nearest thing to grab to combat her. He ended up grabbing a machete, and storming out of the store, despite the alarm beckoning out to all fat, flabby security guards. He slid out of the store, looking here and there until he spotted her, destroying a row of stores, including his favorite one, in one sweep of her kwan dao. ONE SWEEP! He began to get chicken. Major chicken. Then he sucked up his fear, turned it into pride, and stepped forward.

"H-Hey… quit all t-that evil… uhhmm… s-s-stuff you're doing… uhhh… you!" the stuttering really didn't help. At least he didn't cower in the corner.

She turned towards him, and snickered "Look, kid, you're not getting a date with me, so back off."

His eyes bulged, and he yelled in frustration "Lady, I'm about to try and defeat you, so shut up already!"

She stopped her destruction, and she began to move towards him. Her converse sneaks pounded the ground as she stepped closer and closer. He felt like he was getting smaller with each step. She stood right in front of him, being taller than him too. It was obvious she was older than him.

"Kid, my name is Cien, ok? You really want to fight me? With a cheap little butter knife?" her voice was smooth, but cold. Though she gave a chilling laugh after her questions.

He puffed up to her, growling "I'm not afraid of you." Then he turned towards the food court, yelling "Right, Felix? FELIX?"

Felix was running from store to store, looting, and screaming "It's the apocalypse! AHHH! We're doomed!"

Seno ignored that, then noticed something "Wait… Cien? Ha ha! Just like the concept car!"

She growled at his little joke, and then took three quick swings at him, as he jumped backwards. Looks like he picked the wrong time to crack jokes. She went for an overhead slash, and he blocked with the machete, then kicked her in the stomach, which knocked her back. Once she was off him a little, he came forward with a diagonal slash, which she luckily blocked off balance. She cracked him in the leg with the end of the kwan dao, which was weighted to make it equal. That made him stumble to the side. Once he did stumble, she smacked him in the face with the weighted end, in the other direction, which had him stumbling over his feet, and to the floor.

She was about to stab him with the kwan dao, but he slid to the side, still on the floor and sweep her off her feet with the broad side of the machete. She looked at him, and he at her, then they began a race to see who could get up the fastest. Seno won, being the one with the lightest weapon to pick up, and he slashed at her furiously, giving her some major cuts on the shoulder, abdominal area, and one actually on the forehead. After this assault, he knew he just needed to get her once more, but she slashed him very heavily in the chest, which slid him back some, smacking him into the glass of a store.

He was panting heavily, as he looked at the blood on her beautiful white fur "Leave now… while you… still can…" he managed to huff that out to her.

She was shaky now, and it was present in her trembling voice "N-Never… NEVER… me and my sisters will rule you, and this whole place…"

Seno gave one last charge, and shoulder tackled her, instead of stabbing her "I don't want to kill you. Leave. By the way, come up with a better goal, while you're at i-"

Then he was disrupted by the security guards, who grabbed hold of him, and began to cuff him, bringing Felix up too. He looked around for Cien, but she was gone. He looked at all the guards, getting angry that THEY were the ones being busted. The guys who did their job, and SAVED them. He squirmed and wiggled, trying to break loose and go look for Cien.

"Damn it, let go! We… well, I, was fighting to save this mall!" he screamed at the guards.

The main guard grinned, and told him "Sorry kid, but you're goin' to jail. Ya rich rat."

End of Ch. 1

Well, I dunno if I did as strong of a finish as I should've, but I like this first chapter. If you liked it too, review please. It keeps me updating and everything. Well, I dunno when the next update will be, but when it is, it'll be pretty awesome. Well, 'til then.
