AN: As with all my other fics, remember that this was written over four years ago, and it sucks. Badly. Critique welcome, as I posted this to help young writers see flaws and problems in their own writing by showing off mine. Blah, I ramble too much. Onto the story!
Ten years have past since Sonic defeated Robotnik. At 25, he has settled down with Amy Rose and had three children: Dash, 9, Annie, 8, and Sara, 6. He lost contact with Miles and Knuckles years ago, and hasn't heard from them since.
Miles, only 18, is starting his Ph. D. at Knothole University. He is the husband of Mina the Mongoose and is best friends with her. He lives a peaceful life trying to find a cure to the disease that nearly took his life. His one child, Cherub, is the center of his life. So is sarcasm.
Knuckles is still protector of the Master Emerald. He spends long hours simply sitting by it, waiting until something comes up. He is 26 but is already aging considerably.
Shadow lives a life going to and from the office. Being awake for only 15 years he has less worldly knowledge then even Cream but his true age is 75 or so.
Cream is a young, beautiful girl of 16. She is lonely since her Chao, Cheese, was taken away in the war of the Chao. She has only Cheese's sister, Cake, to keep her company.
