Note: this series is a fanfiction series focused on my main Sonic fan character named Green the Hedgehog during his days spent at Knothole and the major fights he battled on behalf of his friends the Freedom Fighters. Read through many interesting takes on the classic SEGA Genesis games that started the Sonic series as well as some less known Game Gear games, this series is meant to be my fan take on the reasons why the classic Sonic games didn't really get Tie-In/Adaption stories because the events of said games happened to Green rather than Sonic with some exceptions to some extent.
Green the Hedgehog Knothole stories
Prologue
Green the Hedgehog had a very unusual childhood, he spent his first four years as an orphan in an orphanage at the city of Station Square and was harassed by Overlander orphans who lost their parents in the Great War. His only friend was one of the Mobians working at the orphanage who was a cat named Miss White, he lived there until Nicolette Weasel adopted him. Shortly after Green and a handheld computer A.I. named Nicolas moved in with Nicolette and her family, Green was introduced to very powerful individuals who decided to fight for the Mobians of the Kingdom of Knothole during the Great War. These people were Fang Weasel nicknamed Fang the Sniper due to his skills as a lethal marksman, Bean the Duck who was known by the nickname Bean the Dynamite by his friends due to his expertise with explosives. And Bark the Polar Bear who was at least the third strongest person in the entire world, after the war the trio spent more time with Green and went on adventures and misadventures with the young hedgehog until Bark and Bean were called away for other reasons and Fang lost his sanity due to a split personality disorder, he became his alter ego Nack the Weasel and sold his own adopted nephew as a slave to the evil Dr. Ivo Julian Robotnik. Nicolette saved Green with help from his A.I. friend Nicolas and after that she sent Green and Nicolas to live with her mother Nancy in one of the Wolf Pack tribes. She went back to the prison camp Green was held at in order to save any other prisoners, namely a Mobian fox named Fiona who was used as the basis for the first Auto-Automaton that was created by Green against his free will. After years of living with a Wolf Pack tribe, Green was called upon his grandfather Spirit the Wolf and went on a spirit quest which took him across Mobius and time itself and he met a very kind mongoose named Mina in the process and saved the mythical Little Planet and it's Time Stones. Now Green and Nicolas are in search of the hidden village of Knothole, in order to find a new home and hopefully find some old friends.
Story 1
Welcome to Knothole
After Green had thought about it the 12 year old decided to find Knothole village and see if he could help out the Freedom Fighters at all, he was interested though if it was true Sonic was the leader of the Freedom Fighters or at least among their ranks at all. The last time Green saw Sonic was when the green hedgehog got to visit Mobotropolis, before Dr. Robotnik took over the city and turned it into the dreaded capital of the Robotnik Empire known only as Robotropolis.
"I wonder how Sonic has been all these years... I hope that the others we played with were able to get to safety...but the odds are kind of slim..." Green said to himself as he used Nicolas to scan the nearby area.
"I don't know...but I'm picking up a signal I've scanned before..." Nicolas said as Green stepped deeper into the Great Forest.
"Is it a Badnik or anything Robotnik or Eggman related?" Green asked Nicolas.
"Negative...it's...Nicole!" Nicolas said with excitement.
"Nicole?" Green said.
"Yes...Nicole is another A.I. handheld computer just like me...her signal is coming from the north east." Nicolas said as he was pointing with his scanners the direction he detected Nicole at.
"I didn't know there were or should I say are others like you Nicolas. Lead on and I'll follow" Green said as he followed the map Nicolas made that was guiding the two of them where they needed to go. And so after an hour of following the map Nicolas made, Green looked around and couldn't see any sign of Knothole village. But when he leaned against a tree he fell down a hole in it and went down a log slide and landed in a hay stack, after he got out of the hay stack he looked around and saw a bunch of villagers who were surprised to see him.
"Who is that?" a person said. "A new comer?" another person said. After a bunch of people began to ask questions Princess Sally and Sonic overheard everything and were surprised to see a green hedgehog who had similar looks to Sonic.
"What's the deal with a faker barging into town?" Sonic said as he looked at Green.
"Calm down Sonic, I..." Sally paused because there was something familiar about the green hedgehog, after a moment she realized somehow that it was Green. "…oh my gosh...Sonic do you know who this is?" Sally asked Sonic.
"Some kind of hedgehog trying to pose as yours truly?!" Sonic said somewhat sarcastically.
"Princess Sally...and Sonic! Oh my I'm so glad to see the rumors are true and that you guys are alright" Green said as he walked towards his old friends.
"You remember us?" Sally said with a bit of surprise as she looked at Green, she was surprised that he also remembered her and Sonic.
"Of course Princess Sally...it's me Green the Hedgehog." Green said as he used his super speed for a moment to see if Sonic remembered his speed.
"Green? Oh now I remember you, you're that dude who raced with me when we were little kids." Sonic said as he now remembered Green.
"Yup I'm the one who needed to work on his speed, which I have." Green said as he zoomed behind Sonic and then in front of him.
"I can see you're faster dude." Sonic said while trying to sound impressed.
"But how...when...why...how have you been all these years?" Sally asked Green as she was trying to get her words out.
"Well Princess Sally I've been living a hard and sometimes adventurous life, I found my one billionth magical Ring earlier this month." Green explained.
"No way?! That's way past cool, how'd you get that many Rings? About a year ago I got my one billionth Ring" Sonic said with interest, he was impressed Green also got a billionth Ring.
"I'll gladly explain some of my worthwhile adventures, but I'm mostly here because there's a new threat as bad as Robotnik, that you must know about." Green said as he got serious. It was then that Green and Nicolas later went to explain the threat of Dr. Eggman though they withheld the information about Green's connection to Dr. Eggman before he began his own campaign to take over the world. Everyone was shocked to learn there was yet another Dr. Robotnik of sorts out in the world who used living creatures as batteries to fuel his Badniks, upon hearing of this new threat Princess Sally requested if Green could at all on behalf of Knothole fight Dr. Eggman since it was bad enough they had to deal with his younger brother Julian aka Dr. Robotnik.
"Princess Sally! Princess Sally!" Antoine yelled as he ran into the court room.
"What is it Antoine?" Princess Sally asked her loyal, royal guard.
"Zit was gigantically huge! Zit is capturing little animals all over ze Great Forest!" Antoine said with shock in his voice.
"Something's capturing animals Ant?" Sonic asked the young soldier.
"Antoine! It's good to see you again" Green said to his old friend.
"Are my eyes playing za games with my mind? Is it another Sonic in green fur?" Antoine said as he rubbed his eyes.
"I'm not Sonic, come on Antoine, It's me Green, don't you remember me." Green asked Antoine.
After a while Antoine thought back to when he met a few times, a green speedy hedgehog named Green who was very nice to him. "Is it Green ze Hedgehog?" Antoine asked.
"Yes Antoine it's me! If you guys are here then Boomer I mean Rotor should be here to?!" Green said as he looked at Antoine.
"Not to rain on a happy moment with Ant but what exactly was all the running and screaming Ant?" Sonic rudely asked Antoine.
"Zhere is a machine capturing ze animals and stuffing zhem into a prison pod." Antoine explained.
"That sounds like the Dr. Eggman guy that Green mentioned." Sonic said as he tapped his foot and thought about the evil Dr. Eggman that Green mentioned.
"Hey Sonic what do you say about kicking Dr. Eggman's butt with me?" Green asked Sonic.
"You mean you want me to save you some time to give the egghead a butt-kicking while I give him a serious butt-kicking?" Sonic asked Green in a challenging manner.
"More or less Sonic." Green said as he smiled and was ready to head after Dr. Eggman. Soon the two hedgehogs dashed out of Knothole and found a group of Mobinis and animals getting captured by robots, Green and Sonic smashed up the Badniks and noticed some of the Badniks were like Julian's versions of the Badniks that didn't need to use animals to fuel them. After that they found the prison capsule and encountered Dr. Eggman in his feared Egg Mobile, Dr. Eggman laughed as he looked at the two hedgehogs and said. "You both may be able to beat me but let's see..." his sentence was finished by his brother Julian. "...how well you miserable rodents do against two Robotniks." Julian said as he had an evil smile.
"Twice the Robotnik and twice the butt kicking." Sonic said.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking Sonic?" Green asked his friend.
"We each take on our own archenemy and look awesome while doing it." Sonic asked Green.
"Yup, I owe Dr. Eggman a few things for what he did to Little Planet. And I'm glad you survived that Dr. Eggman so we could meet again." Green said with a smile.
"Silence you fools, time for my new Egg-O-Matic to smash you Sonic!" Julian Robotnik said as he got a spiked ball to come out of his Egg-O-Matic and began to attack Sonic. Meanwhile Dr. Eggman used a checkered chain-ball to try and hit Green, the two hedgehogs were able to easily use Sonic Spins and Spin Jumps to take down their enemies who went running.
"You haven't seen the last of me Green! I'll be back from South Island with a legion of Badniks!" Dr. Eggman yelled as he used his Egg Mobile to fly away.
"And I'll get you yet you foolish hedgehog! The Robotnik Empire rules the world and I'll crush you beneath my boots!" Julian yelled as he escaped in his Egg-O-Matic.
"Oh yeah we rule!" Sonic said as he high fived Green after they won and freed the captured Mobinis and animals.
"True Sonic...but what Dr. Eggman said concerned me...how about we return to Knothole so Nicolas and I can rest up and then we'll go on our egg hunt for Dr. Eggman who seems to be heading for South Island." Green said as he and Sonic returned to Knothole. Later on Nicolas and Green rested up and got to meet up with Rotor, Nicole, Tails and the Substitute Freedom Fighters and Dulcy. Green was glad to see that everyone he played with at Mobotropolis was able to escape from Robotnik's takeover and to meet so many other people who were part of a bigger picture, once Green spent a couple days in Knothole he decided to head out on his mission to try and keep Dr. Eggman at bay. Everyone wished him luck and Sonic told him to stay cool while he kicked some Ro-butt-nik. Green knew that this was his chance to try and begin a path to do something right and to make sure the fighting in the Great War his uncles did wouldn't be in vain because of some egghead.
