Allow me to introduce myself. I am Phoenix Rose, an aspiring young author that decided to write this immersive journal – or fanfic, if you will – about my universe, or what you Overlanders know as the Sonic the Hedgehog universe. In doing so, and being an idiot that apparently didn't know people from your time knew about us, I have included numerous characters and events from Archie's Sonic comic universe, which, according to the terms of service, is apparently a big no-no. I've made the decision to publish this…this fanfic anyway and see where it goes…if it goes anywhere. Therefore, a few notes:
I do not own any officially-licensed characters. They are the explicit property of SEGA, DiC, Archie (the company, not the series itself), Nintendo, and Mr. Ken Penders (in some small cases). I do not own any settings in this fanfic, either. I will go so far as to say I theoretically don't own myself, or any other original characters, simply because we are based off of the official timeline. Okay, that should cover the legality of things.
Finally, I looked very carefully over the ratings system for the site. I've decided, to be safe, that this fanfic will be rated M for suggestive themes, extreme violence, and coarse language. This fanfic will cover quite a few controversial, real-world issues, even though it takes place in the Sonic universe, simply because they need to be discussed in some form of literature, and I don't see enough of anything covered in current lit.
Enjoy, leave as many constructive comments as you want, and grab on to whatever's closest to you, because you're in for a wild ride. Here, I'll close the hatch before I take you a thousand years into the future…
