Please take note this story was started in early 2012. With that being said, I intended to write this story as close to the comics as possible but that is a very hard thing to do since the comics keep updating and changing. Also please note that I wrote this based on the material from the comics presented to me in early 2012. So if there happens to be a pairing you don't agree with (and hey, I might not agree with it either), just suck it up and read the story. It's not a 'shipping' story it's an adventure story so you shouldn't even be worried about that kind of thing.
See the A/N below for more details.
A/N: I am making this as just another adventure for what happens in the Mobius Prime timeline of the Archie Comics after the final defeat of Dr. Eggman (because it is going to happen eventually, most likely at the end of the comics–possibly at issue 250). Since the current year in the comic is 3237, I want to make sure everyone notes that in this story Eggman was defeated in 3238 as I will be referring to that date often. This is only for age and reference purposes (I will make a list of ages and date toward the bottom of this page).
As with all my stories, I try to make them as canon as possible so I am basing this solely on the mural in the library in Silver's future as that is supposed to be Mobius Prime in 200 years (StH: 215). It depicts the '5 Years Later' timeline in the altered MxYL story arc. So don't be mad about the pairings because according to the comics, they are canon.
*Side Note* I would consider all of MxYL as canon but the only thing that throws me off is Locke not dying to stop Enerjak as he did in the comics
**Another Side Note* I would like to do a story about how Lara-su gets a statue commemorated to her in Portal on Onyx Island in Silver's future but that might be revealed in the comics so I'll let that one be.
***Another Side Note (I need to stop this)* My story includes how some pairings occurred but that might end up being explained in the comics anyways… Oh well. But then again, if Silver succeeds in finding the 'traitor' in the Freedom Fighters, that might disrupt his future which could throw off all of what was 'canon' in his time, changing everything to make it all an alternate reality…. My head hurts.
Screw it. This is just (another) alternate universe in the Archie Sonic Universe. There. Now it's 100% canon.
Anyway, onto the story…
Still a Need for Heroes
Chapter 1: Old Heroes, New Lives
It took many years for Mobius to finally see the last of Dr. Robotnik, The Eggman, Julian Kintobor, Robo-Robotnik, or any of the other many aliases the mad scientist held. Defeated in the year 3238, the man saw the last of a thirteen year reign of terror on the planet in a cataclysmic loss which almost resulted in the lives of the many that continuously fought against his rule.
Though the end of the 2nd Robotnik War marked new beginnings and the promise of hope for the inhabitants of Mobius, it did not however bring about any sudden happiness that the people desired for so long. The land was devastated; thousands of settlements and cities lay waste. The people were displaced; millions were captured and only few managed to escape causing them to find refuge in foreign lands, live in hiding, or rebuild from a shattered life. And like any war, the casualties were horrific; hundreds of thousands of lives were taken.
During the 1st Robotnik War, those killed were only those who showed resistance while millions were roboticized and turned into metal slaves of the tyrant. But as that war concluded with the defeat of Dr. Ivo Robotnik in 3235, Robo-Robotnik arose in his place with more sinister plans. At the hands of The Eggman during the 2nd Robotnik War, much of the Mobian population lost their lives including over 90% of the entire Echidna race, the entire Golden Hive Colony, and nearly all those who fought in the battlefield and wastelands to ensure freedom. Occupying forces and organizations arose, and new forms of terrorism such as legionization were exploited to a great extent. Civil War broke out in amongst different ethnic and cultural faction and numerous conflicts ensured. Friends were lost, heroes died, and the rest were left to deal with the tragedies that overcame the planet in the past decade and a half.
The current year is 3243, five years after the final defeat of Robotnik, and much of the planet is still undergoing reconstruction.
Albion has been receiving provisional supplies to help the Echidna population there while Angel Island is being restores to its pre-occupation status. The Dingoes in The Sandopolis Zone reluctantly agreed under Helmut Von Stryker to rejoin Echidna society and to try to assimilate with them peacefully.
Bill of the Platypus Dark Egg Legion carried out his duties as Grand Master to take control of the Downunda Chapter after Robotnik's defeat but being a double agent for the Freedom Fighters for a majority of the time, he was able to successfully disband the Chapter and the legionized platypuses were placed under surveillance as they tried to incorporate themselves back into normal society.
The Dragon Kingdom and Wolf Pack Nation remained stable under the rules of Monkey Khan and Lupe. After much negotiation (mostly between Bunnie and her uncle), the dismays in the Great Desert and Sand Blast City were being put to rest. Deerwood Forest and Mercia has been kept in check for a long time now, since the removal of the High Sheriff many years prior, under Rob O' the Hedge and his wife Mari-an with help from the Crazy Critter Freedom Fighters.
Since the destruction of New Mobotropolis after the rise of the Babylon Garden and the following turmoil that ensured with the Ixis conflict, the citizens were again at a loss of a home. (*A/N – This is assuming that the 'loss' that is suspected to occur in Sonic 234 is the destruction of New Mobotropolis.*) King Elias designated a new area to become the capital of the Republic of Acorn near the edge of the Great Forest. Considering the location held such significance during the constant underground efforts against Robotnik, Acorn City was marked as a symbol to the efforts of the Mobians during the 1st and 2nd Robotnik Wars and as a new beginning in a world of peace.
The world was starting to rise out of chaos again. But though the law and land are healing their wounds quickly, lives are still shattered and will be harder to rebuild.
Knuckles never got over the atrocities he committed as Enerjak and forever blamed himself for the severe loss of numbers in the Echidna race, despite how rapidly they were rising from the ashes. Him Julie-su and The Chaotix remain, for the most part, on Angel Island to watch over and protect the floating island but still use the warp rings of Dr. Finitevus to travel to aid others when called to it.
Mina and the Forget Me Knots got over their fears of NICOLE and without the exaggerated fear brought by Ixis Naugus, the people were able to accept the AI as a Freedom Fighter and disregarded the 'threats' they thought she possessed.
NICOLE has become an active member of the society as she found a more stable state for her artificial body. Almost always remaining in her artificial body, she has been able to work on her subsystems practically only from remote, giving her the freedom she so desired. She was integrated into the central command of Acorn City and helps regulate many of the functions of the republic.
Though still a member of the Council, Rotor often tinkered with new toys in his spare time. He, at the request of Bunnie, was able to create special gloves and boots which granted Mrs. D'Coolette almost all her special abilities that she had as half-robot. She enjoyed being completely flesh and bone again but missed the freedom she had before. Now able to have the best of both worlds, her and Antoine were finally settling down like a married couple should.
Sonic and Sally had been only recently wedded. They dated for quite some time instead of quickly tying the knot, for fear of what happened last time they decided to move a little too fast. Ash had proposed to Mina a few weeks ago but they were preparing for another tour soon so they put the wedding on hold for a while. Knuckles and Julie-su still had no interests in an official marriage but they were so committed, it almost seems as though they already were conjugal.
The cogs were turning again for the disrupted planet. Many of the heroes of the war at first were at a loss of what to do next, having fought all their lives and now there was no more fighting left to be done. They were not too particular about playing 'clean-up' but Sally, still in command of the Knothole Freedom Fighters, made sure everyone did their part.
*o*
"And where do you think you're going?"
'Shit.' Sonic thought as he tried to sneak out of bed early to avoid work and hoping for a day off. "Hey Sal. I was just…getting ready for the day!" His terrible poker face and cheeky grin did nothing to sell his case.
"Uh huh." She said with half a grin and a raised eyebrow. She gently tossed back the sheets of the bed and scooted herself back a bit to have her back rest upon the headboard of the bed.
"Nothing?" He questioned to see if his lie had even the slightest success.
"Nope." She affirmed with crossed arms.
The hedgehog let out a heavy sigh, dropping his shoulders as he moved over to sit on the side of the bed. He let his head hang low a little as his chin rested in a cupped hand while the other was drooped over his knee, somewhat in a 'Thinker' pose. "Can we not just have one day off? We've been working none stop for the past forever."
"Sonic, it's not that bad. Besides," she playfully smirked, "it's not like you have put forth the greatest of efforts."
"I'm a hero Sally, I have a need for speed! These mobitarian efforts are not suiting me." He complained.
"Sonic. You know very well you are 'prince' now. You have to accept at least some responsibilities." She said sternly.
"Yeah… But I bet Freedom HQ has been getting pretty dusty." He said turning his head slightly and letting a few teeth show through a smile.
There was a pause before Sally rolled her eyes and gave in to her husband's plea. "Alright, alright. We can stop early and take half the day off."
"Good enough for me!" He said as his head popped up.
"Now hurry up and get ready. Elias wants us to meet with the Mountain Faction and get a sitrep of the reactor up there. Apparently it's been having some 'technical difficulties.'" She explained as she got out of bed and headed toward the bathroom.
"Technical difficulties… " And in an instant he was behind the princess as she starred at the mirror, running a brush through her auburn hair. "Does that mean we're bringing Tails?" Sonic said, hopeful.
"Who else would be better for the job?" She smiled.
...
The mechanical genius was not too hard to find, figuring he would be at the city tech lab tinkering with some toy. So Sonic and Sally were not surprised when that was exactly where he was. "Little bro, what's up!" Sonic said as he walked up to the two-tailed fox, his hand breaking away from Sally's grip and lengthening his stride to meet his friend even but a few seconds sooner than if he'd kept his original pace.
He raised his hand up in the air beckoning for a high five. Tails was tightening on a socket, from what looked like from outside eyes, a jumble of wires and metal. He turned the wrench one last time before returning Sonic's greeting with the high five he asked for. "Nothing much Sonic. Just finishing up the ionic charger for a project of mine." The fox stood tall with a wrench in one hand and the other resting on his hip. He adopted a signature handkerchief that he wore around his neck and a pair of old aviator goggles that rested on top of his head. He had grown considerably as well since the death of Eggman and now stood even taller than Sonic and Sally. The two haven't grown as much in said time, being almost fully matured during Robotnik's final battle, but the entire trio's physical appearance definitely matched their current age. Tails turned his greeting to Sally as she made her way up to the scene. "Hey Aunt Sally!"
"Doesn't that bring back memories. How's it going Tails?"
"Pretty good. What do you guys need?" He asked, figuring they weren't there for small talk.
"King Elias wants Sonic and I to take the Freedom Fighter Special 2 to the Mountain Faction to examine the reactor there. Apparently it has been a bit screwy lately and we were wondering if you'd help us figure out what's wrong with it?"
"Sure, no problem! I'd love to go out on a job with you guys. Just like old times right?" He said happily to oblige.
"Alright, let's do it to it." Sonic said as they began making their way through Acorn City to the airstrip. "So what've you been up to Tails?"
"Well mainly I've been occupied with work. The company is researching the effects of particle collisions and we haven't really worked out the 'kinks' in the accelerator yet. Other than that, I've been spending the weekends working on a new turbine for the Sea Fox. That ionic charger I was fiddling with when you two showed up was part of it. I'm curious as to going supersonic in water. The thicker medium might make breaching the sound barrier reverberate the waves differently causing varying effects." The little engineer explained.
"That's great Tails. Interesting I might add." Sally coined.
"Pfsh, who needs to go supersonic underwater? I can just run that fast over the water!" Sonic stated, displaying his usual ego.
"So Sonic, how do you like being a prince?" The fox questioned with a jesting grin.
Sonic was merely able to open his mouth to speak before Sally cut in, allowing no words to escape the hedgehog's mouth. "He loves it." She said, jabbing her elbow playfully in his side. Tails let out a little chuckle at the couple, noting how not even through the years he could see them with anyone else but each other.
Since there was no direct need for the Freedom Fighters anymore, they had to make their livings elsewhere now that they were adults and living on their own. Tails, even though he was only at the young age of 18, picked up an intern-like job at a scientific research company as an engineer. Sonic was lucky enough to marry into royalty so he didn't have to worry about income; only had to worry about obliging to his princely duties. One of which included the job he was about to embark on. But this was a good change of pace for the speedster. Normally he and Sally were stuck delegating some new policy to the council or more often working as 'mobitarians,' trying to rebuild a destroyed world. But when Tails said it was 'just like old times,' Sonic couldn't help but feel a bit lighter toward this task. He only wished the rest of his battle buddies were there with him.
They came into view of the airstrip a bit off in the distance. "I sure do miss being a Freedom Fighter." Tails said, reflecting on years past.
"You're telling me bud. Can't tell you how many times I just have to go out and stretch these old legs o' mine." Sonic chimed as Sally rolled her eyes, wishing Tails did not go there.
"But fortunately for you, nothing stops you." She smiled. She tried not to think back on the FF days. "I can't do much to quench my thirst. There is not a whole lot of tactical planning needed in a peaceful world. Not that I don't want peace or anything!" She quickly defended her words.
"Nah, it's okay Sal. I got what you mean."
"Yeah, we all need some action every once in a while." Tails said as they continued their approach on the airstrip. "Is Antoine or Bunnie going to be in on this?" He asked, remembering the jet's main pilot and his inseparable partner.
"No. I offered to Elias that Antoine pilot us as he normally is the one to do so but he assured he needed the Commander for a different job currently." Antoine was still at the rank of Commander and worked, along with Bunnie, beside the king.
"Dang, I was hoping." The young adult fox said with a slightly saddened tone.
"Look at it this way, now you get to fly the Special, big guy." She smiled.
Tails just smiled back. The fact that he was now an adult was slowly impacting him. He spent his whole life trying to prove to the others that he should be included with his older friends but now that everyone was on their own, he was realizing that meant to say goodbye a lot sooner. Though they all worked separately, thankfully they have still kept in touch and often got together on the weekends for a party or something.
"Well here we are." Sally said as they made it to the airstrip.
They walked up to the flightline to check in. Sonic opened the door and held it for his two friends before entering after them.
"Since when was Sonic such the gentleman?" Tails chuckled quietly to Sally.
"Oh don't worry, that ego is still as strong as ever." She smiled back.
"What was that?" The hedgehog asked as he thought he heard someone mumble his name.
"Nothing." His wife said as they walked up to the front desk where a dog was clicking away on a computer.
"We are here to check in for our departure on the FFS 2." The princess said as she handed the canine a key card. He checked it, and ran it through the computer. A few beeps and clicks later, he handed it back to her.
"It's all yours ma'am. Nicole is prepping it now."
"Thanks."
"Is she coming with us?" Tails asked.
"Well, essentially. She'll be helping pilot but she won't be 'with' us." She said, trying to explain.
"Ah." He replied, knowing what she meant.
They stepped outside where the jet was warming its engines.
"Alright, I'll see you later then." They heard Nicole say.
Sonic was the first to enter the craft as the hatch was open waiting them. "Who were you talking to Nicole?"
The cybernetic lynx was standing there and quickly turned around, obviously surprised at the hedgehog's appearance. "Oh! Oh, no one. Ready?" She said casually. Sonic looked around the ship but couldn't see anything so he shrugged his shoulders and let it go.
"Alright, we're all here." Sally said, following Tails onboard. She turned to a panel next to the door and typed in a code to close the door but it wouldn't close. "That's odd." She typed it again but the same event occurred. "Nicole, why is the door not closing?"
"Huh? Oh, sorry." She said, resting her paw on her head and closing her eyes as if in thought. Sally mindlessly took half a step back and felt something brush up against her but she didn't focus much on it as Nicole had just solved the more serious issue. "There, should be good now." Sally tried one more time and the hatch successfully closed. "I'll be working with you all remotely so once I see you all get settled, I'll be heading out." She said as the trio sat down and buckled up. She soon vaporized in the normal green and black digital flash and disappeared. Her face cropped up on a dash monitor of the jet as her voice sounded with it. "Alright, taking off in three…two…one…zero." And just like that, they felt the rumble of the jet lifting off the ground. "Tails, I will let you assume control once we have exited Acorn City airspace.
"Gotcha." The fox said, wagging his twin tails subconsciously.
It was not long before Nicole's voice sounded off in the cabin of the jet again. "Leaving Acorn City Airspace in five, four, three…" Tails reached out and pulled the joystick toward him, ready take assume control of the ship. "…two, one." The fox felt a kick as the adjustment from auto to manual switched in but he quickly compensated. He turned flicked the steering device to a sharp left throwing them into a barrel roll.
"Tails!" Sally shouted at the unexpected maneuver.
"Sorry, just wanted a little fun." He said with a grin. "Display coordinates." He commanded as a mapping feature blew up on a partial screen to the right of the display. "ETA two hours, thirty-seven minutes. We should be crossing through the mountains in about an hour less than out expected travel time. And it looks like," He said as he flicked his paws on some buttons on the dash as more displays appeared, the current one of atmospheric properties on their projected course. "we might be running into some bad weather in that region but nothing I can't handle. Just expect a little turbulence."
"Sounds good buddy." Sonic chimed in.
"You know I could have told you that." Nicole said in a smart, joking tone.
"Sorry Nicole, just thought since I was the pilot." The bashful fox admitted, not entirely picking up on the AI's sarcasm.
"It's okay Tails, I'm only joking."
...
Time passed by pretty quickly as much of the trip was spent with normal conversation. Once they came up on a good LZ for the Special in close proximity of the reactor they were to look into, Tails kicked off the afterburners and switched on the vertical landing boosts. And oh so gently, he lowered the craft. "Aaaannnnd." A small and typical tremble occurred signifying that they had landed. "We have landed." Tails said as she threw back the controls and unbuckled to get up and stretch.
"Alright, I will monitor the FF Special 2 while you all are away. Good luck!" Nicole said cheerfully as the three passengers left the craft and stepped into the cold and deep mountain snow. It was lightly drizzling with tiny flakes and the wind was strong but the facility that housed the reactor was close by so they did not mind the extremes of the mountains for a short time.
They had made it to the facility and inside Tails shook off the little bit of condensed air that stuck to his fur in the short time he was outside. Sonic and Sally just walked in and instantly started looking around. It was obvious as to what was the reactor as a large cylindrical device stood near the back wall of the small building.
"Cozy." Sonic sarcastically stated from the looks of the cold and worn down structure. It was mostly metallic and rust was not shy around many of the tiles that made up the walls. It was clearly old and in need of a little renovation but that was not their mission.
"I'll say. Come on, let's take a look at the reactor." Sally said as she kept moving forward. She pulled out a small data pad that showed the schematics of the place. "According to this, it looks like we need to access the terminal which is far from the apparatus of the reactor."
"English Sally?" Sonic asked.
"We need to get up there." She said, pointing to a small platform located near the top of the tall structure. "Only thing is, the stairway to reach it has collapsed." She continued as she moved over to the backside of the reactor and found a jumbled pile of rusted scraps on the ground underneath where a section of the metal stairs once stood.
"Shouldn't be a problem, huh Tails?" He said as he turned to his old friend.
"Not at all." He said beginning to take flight. "Need a lift Sally?" He grabbed her hand and the two took off to the top of their objective.
"Great, so what am I going to do in the mean time?" The grounded hedgehog complained, being a little bored and feeling slightly useless.
"Just don't touch anything." His wife ordered. She then focused her attention on the job at hand. "Ok first things first," She tried to open up a small panel that was covering the processing unit of the reactor but it was either rusted on, jammed, or stiff from the cold. "getting this damn thing off." She finished. She tried again to open it but her struggle was apparent. After her constant effort for the past minute or so, it just budged a little. "Uh, I give up." She said, getting out a little handheld gadget that looked similar to a soldering iron. She pressed the point on the panel's hatch and it glowed red. She proceeded to move it around the hatch until she heard a click. The panel creaked open slowly. Sally took the hatch and broke it off from the rest of the panel. "Not like it did much anyway." She grinned to Tails. "Now let's take a look."
Meanwhile, "Hmph. Don't touch anything." Sonic said as he walked around examining the place. He moved over to a peculiar looking electrical box that was attached to a pipeline that led straight into the ground. He opened it up and gazed at the large number of switches and buttons.
Tails and Sally took a moment to exam what they were looking at back at the top of the reactor. "It's as though the core controls shorted out but…" Tails stopped mid-sentence. He reached in the garble of wires and processor chips and pulled out a small box with all the wires still attached, and looking as if it was brand new. "the controls are perfectly fine. And I mean really perfect! There is nothing wrong with the thing at all." He said, still examining the artifact. He took the data pad from Sally and unhooked some wires from the reactor, plugging them into the pad to delve deeper into the schematics.
"Well how do you explain the fluctuations we've been picking up recently back at Acorn if the controls haven't faltered any?"
"I don't know. But fixing the problem should be simple. All I have to do is…" He said as he rewired a few things and toiled with the data pad. He typed a few things into a program on the handheld device and suddenly, a light flashed inside the reactor's brain. "Done."
"Alright, good work Tails!" Sally celebrated. "Now let's just–" Her abrupt interruption was caused by a large rumbling and a complete shutdown of power at the reactor.
"Whoops." Was heard by the duo from the whispering hedgehog on the ground below.
"Sonic!" Sally shouted.
"I didn't do anything." He said nonchalantly.
"I bet." She scorned but another shaking erupted which tossed the two off the high platform. "Wah!" She quickly grabbed onto Tails who was already in flight the split second after they were thrown. They landed safely on the ground next to Sonic and the electrical box he was previously investigating. The limited natural light in the facility was just enough for them to be able to see where they were going.
Another rumbling occurred. "What's going on?" The Blue Blur said as he was about ready to high tail it out of the area at top speed.
Tails was already over by the switchboard inside the electrical box and was looking around. "Hard to say. Anybody have a light?"
"Not the best time for a smoke don't you think buddy?" The hedgehog added.
"Not that Sonic. Here." Sally pulled out a small flashlight and shined it where the fox was focusing his sight.
"The reactor is trying to work with the fuel line shut down. Think of it as a gun trying to fire a bullet with no gunpowder. That's what's causing the shaking. The whole place is unstable!"
Sally glared over at Sonic sending the mental message, 'what did I say?' Sonic picked up instantly on her expression and rebuked. "In my defense, it was labeled as only a secondary caution." He joked as Sally knew he was just toying with her.
"Ugh." Tails tried to reverse the switch but it wasn't budging. Another large quake shook the building. "The switch somehow fused to the board. I don't think it was ever intended to be turned over." He explained.
"Come on little bro, there has got to be something!" Sonic urged but while he was speaking, the younger fox was already working on it. He flipped the main power to stand-by, hit a couple of the buttons and pulled out the entire power board that held the fused switch. Sparks flew everywhere and there was a large 'snap' noise but the technique was proven effective as the power returned and the reactor stabilized again. "See? What did I say?"
Sally released a sigh before commending the day's hero. "Good job Tails." She pulled out the data pad again and performed one last check to make sure their resent disturbances did not do any permanent damage or caused the need for repairs in the near future. "Looks like everything checks out. The reactor should be good for a while now."
"Alright. Let's call it a day then. Who's down for chili-dogs at Freedom HQ?"
"Sounds good to me." Tails answered as the three began to depart the facility. They closed up the doors to the reactor and shortly ventured back into the mountain climate to board the jet that was waiting for them.
They got on board the Freedom Fighter Special and were immediately greeted by Nicole. "I assume everything went well, despite the large disturbances I picked up." She said a bit smartly.
"It went fine." Sally said playfully with a grin as she again threw Sonic a look. She then turned to Tails. "If only we knew what caused the fluctuations in the first place." She mused.
"Well not to alarm you but when I first looked at it, I initially thought sabotage." The fox explained.
"Sabotage?" The princess responded in surprised.
"At first, yes. But looking at the condition of the panel and the information on the data pad when I reprogramed the system, it looked like it was just a simple syntax mistake in the mastercoding."
"Well let's just hope so." Sally said as she was the last one to strap herself into her seat. "Let's get back home." She commanded and began taking off shortly after. "I'm ready for the rest of the day off."

NOT ALL CHARACTERS LISTED WILL APPEAR IN THE STORY! THIS IS JUST FOR A REFERENCE!
I apologize for the lengthy and confusing A/N in the beginning but honestly, I am too lazy to change it... The information in this story is based off what has happened in the comics so far as of issue 232 and SU 35 and the previews of future comics. Assumptions have been made, educated ones I might add, which bothers me (as I've said, I like to make my stories as canon as I can regarding the amount of info see in the original piece) but I guess that's why they call it 'fanfic.'
The ages of the characters kind of have been botherin me so I took some time to research the ages and stuff
This is just a full length adventure story so if you like just a good story, full-length and nothing really obserd, this is for you.
Read, Review, and ENJOY!
