Sonic Beginnings

Prologue: The Hedgehog, The Squirrel, And the Armadillo

It all started on an island, well partially a place called South Island. There at this place was a lush green plain filled with large hills, beautiful waterfalls, palm trees and exotic flowers as far as the eye could see. Here is where a hero would be made. The hero would be made at this place, Green Hill Zone.

Underneath a palm tree an old grey plain squirrel with thick black eyebrows and closed eyes and a young teenaged yellow bigger bipedal flying squirrel where playing a game of Go Fish. The yellow squirrel put down his cards and began to speak.

"Gramps I'm tired of playing these old card games, I want to be a hero!" The yellow squirrel proclaimed proudly.

"Damn it Ray, how many times do I have to say no! After all there is nothing on this island that needs protecting." The old squirrel clarified will scratching his chin.

"What about the young ones, there helpless and can't defend themselves." Ray said.

"This island is way too peaceful for the children to need protecting." The old squirrel said.

Then all of a sudden a blue blur went pass the two making the cards fly up into the air, knocking Ray off his feet, and the old squirrel was swooped off the ground to the top of the palm tree fast first.

The old squirrel growled and muffled "Lea mu guss iw us Sunoc."

Ray got back on his feet and said "Yep looks like it, should I go try to slow the kid down."

The old squirrel climbed down from the tree. "That would be pointless the child is born with incredible speed, the making of a true hero." He said proudly.

Ray then got a pissed expression on his face. "What the hell gramps, you just said the island was in no need of a hero." Ray yelled in the old squirrels face.

The old squirrel then hit the palm tree making a coconut fall on Ray's head.

"OWWWWWW!" Ray screamed holding the top of his head in pain.

"I was just saying he has more skill than you, no need to get mad you just need experience." The old squirrel scolded.

Ray proceed to climb up the palm tree. "I show experience old man, he's 12 I got him beat out by 3 years." Ray opened his arms wide revealing the two yellow pieces of skin underneath his arms and jumped of the tree. Bur he dii not fall but began to fly. " I'll show you old man, why I'm a HERO!" Ray shouted as he flew in the same direction as Sonic.

The old squirrel breathed heavily. "Young folk these days" he sighed as he walked off in the opposite direction.

Meanwhile…

The Blue Blur had stopped at a rundown blue house, revealing himself to be a blue chubby bipedal hedgehog. He had blue spikes running down the back of his head and back. His stomach and arms cream colored. He also was wearing red and blue stripped sneakers. He was wearing white gloves on his hands.

"Well home sweet home." The hedgehog said happily. " Time to get me a chili dog."

Sonic now drooling walked towards the door, only to stop when he heard a annoying voice overhead.

"Hey Loser." The voice said.

In front of Sonic dropped Ray, who didn't look to happy to see him.

Sonic but on a big grin. "Oh hey your Elder Acorn's annoying grandson right."

Ray stood like a prince and began to speak elegantly "Why yes I am….."

Ray then got an angry look on his face again. "Wait annoying, oh that cans it kid." Ray threw a swift punch at Sonic, only for Sonic to dodge it and end up behind him.

"You really are annoying." Sonic chuckled. Sonic then kicked Ray face first to the ground and jumped up into the air. "Here goes a new move I've been making." Sonic started to spin into a ball rapidly. "SUPERSONIC SPIN ATTACK!" Sonic in ball form rammed into Ray's back, then landed perfectly on his feet. " Now for my chili dog." Sonic said happily.

Ray slowly got up from the ground "Damn you Kid!" He ran towards Sonic and swung a jab. Only for it to be stop by a black and red bipedal Armadillo who was wearing old looking red and white sneakers. Ray took a big gulp. "Mi….i…i…ght…yyy?" The Armadillo very stare put fear in Ray.

The Armadillo while holding Ray's fist, punched Ray in the gut. Ray fell to the ground unconscious. Mighty put his foot on Ray's head. "Picking on little kids is not respectable, no wonder your grandfather sees no hero in you." Mighty spoke sternly.

Mighty then turned his head towards Sonic. "You alright kid."

"Awesome, but I didn't need your help." Sonic said with a cool grin. "Remember that I'm a loner, like you, no parents. I can take care of myself."

Mighty took his foot off Ray's head and started to laugh. "Stupid kid without me, you wouldn't know how to fight." Mighty Chuckled as he threw a few air punches.

"Hey I'm a pre-teen and I'm a better fighter than you." Sonic chuckled

Mighty picked up Ray and put him over his shoulder. "You keep telling yourself that, well I got to get this guy back to the elder so later." Mighty said as he waved goodbye.

Sonic waved too, until his stomach growled. "Looks like you it's time to get that Chili Dog" Sonic joked as he walked into his house.

Meanwhile far away…

In a metal factory on the far side of the Island a evil plan was about to hatch.
