Prologue:

I can't believe this happened; the day started out so great. I was going to go and see my family, but then this had to happen. Why, why did it have to happen to them. They were so young and so full of life! I wonder this all the time now. What would of happen if I had ran right through those glass palace doors a second before it happened. My name is Sonic the Hedgehog. You may know me as you friendly, buttkicking, hero, but that's not all I am. You'll get to know the other half of me after I'm done telling my tale. Let's see, where do I start. Oh, lets start the beginning of today when I still had the ones I loved.

Chapter One:

The day started out like any other. I was sitting on my couch playing video games and eating my favorite snack, chillydogs. I was just about to finish my 8th chillydog, when all of the sudden, my buddy Tails walked in, and this is where the story begins. "Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la la, la la la la, tis the season to be jolly, fa la la la la, la la la… Sonic! Have you been sitting here all day? asked my buddy Tails. "Well yeah, what else am I suppose to do?" "Sonic, I thought we were going to decorate the house! Complained Tails. "I'll do it later," I replied, clearly not in the holiday spirit. "Christmas is less than a week away, and we're the only ones on the street without our house decorated! "What does it matter, I started, you're going to visit your parents in Hawaii, and I'm going to be staying here all day long, playing video games and eating ham." This seemed to upset Tails, "My parents are going to spend Christmas in Sweden this year." "So then, what are you going to do?" I asked a little too forcefully. Tails started to to put round Christmas decorations onto the tree, while trying to think. I went back to playing my video games when I heard Tails say the worst thing possible, " Well, I thought I would spend Christmas with you this year." I froze in place, and had a nervous sweat go down the side of my face. "Uhh, why would you want to do that?" "Why not"? Tails questioned while putting the last decoration on the tree. "Well, listen, Tails, I uhhh…" I started looking up at the white ceiling. "What?" "I don't exactly spend Christmas at the house…," I said slowly. "Hmm?" Tails said honestly confused. "I sorta spend Christmas at my parents house." "Oh, that's great, Tails said excitedly, I've never met your family!" "I wish I could say the same thing." "Why? Tails questioned, is there something the matter with your family?" " You could say that." "Like what Sonic, they're are your family." "Yeah, but…" "Ding, Dong!" "I got it! Yelled Tails. I watched as Tails went to go and open up the door, and what do you know, Amy Rose was standing on the other side. "Hey Tails, can I talk to you and Sonic for a second? She asked. "Sure Amy! Come on in!" The two of them slowly walked over to me and sat down on the couch. I looked up at Tails and he gave me the "turn off the stupid xbox" look. I quickly turned it off, and sat back down. Hey, you don't know what that little dude can do when he gets angry! "So Amy, I started, what did you want to talk to me and Tails about? "Well, you see, every year for Christmas, Knuckles, Rough, Silver, Blaze, Shadow, Cream and Cheese come over for a little Christmas party I throw every year." "Yeah, and sorry we could come to any of those. Sonic and I are really busy around Christmas time." "No, Tails, it ok, I completely understand!" "Ok good because I feel really bad about it." "It's fine, but this year, however, my house, was well…" "What happened to your house Amy? I said suddenly getting into the conversation. "There was a fire there and the builders aren't done build my house yet." "Oh, I'm sorry Amy." "It's ok Sonic," Amy said with a sad smile, "I was wondering, though, if it was ok to spend Christmas with you guys this year." "Uh…, I started, I don't think that's a good idea." "Sure you can Amy! In a matter of fact, invite everyone else over for Christmas! "Tails!" I yelled at him, we were going to visit my parents, remember?" "Oh Sonic, I have never met your family before! Can I come and meet them? Please!" "Amy that's a really bad…"Ding Dong!" "I got it!" Tails yelled. I looked at him as all of our friends piled into our livingroom. "Thanks for having us Tails!" "Yeah, this will be an awesome Christmas with all of you guys!" Tails! I yelled again. Everybody suddenly turned towards me. "Sonic, just relax, ok? I'm sure your family won't mind you bringing a few friends, would they? "Um, yeah they would!" "Wait, you guys were going to Sonics house?" Asked Blaze. "Yeah, and Sonic was going to invite everybody. Right Sonic?" "Tails, my parents aren't like anybody elses parents ok?" "What, why?" "Hmm, look," I said, "my parents are the normal, everyday parents you guys have ok? My mother and father are…" "Ring Ring, Ring Ring" "OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!" I screamed. "I have it." "Hello, this is Sonic the Hedgehog speaking." "Sonic, Sonic oh you have to come home! It was my mother crying on the other line. "Mom, mom what's the matter?" This grabbed everyone's attention in the room. "Oh Sonic, it's your father, he was shot with a poisonous arrow!" "What?" I whispered. "Is he ok?!" I yelled. "Sonic, the doctors say that he'll live a few more poison is already taking over his body. Everybody in the room looked at me with concern as my voice started to crack. Tw-two days?! Can't they do anything to help s-save him?" Amy turned towards me and word mouthed me " Are you alright?" Before I took off into my bedroom. "No, I'm sorry Sonic. I know this must be hard on you, and it's hard on us to. Come home and visit him one last time, ok? I felt the first tear fall from my eye. "O-ok m-mom." "Sonic, I love you." "Mom, is it ok if I bring some of my friends along with me?" "Why of course sweetheart! If it helps you grieve then yes. "Thanks mom." "Anytime dear, I love you and I'll see you soon, ok." "O-okay. Love you too!" "Alright." "Bye." "Goodbye my son." I hung up the phone and slowly sat on my bed. My dad, he was hurt, and wounded. He was going to die. I let it sink in for a moment, and then let all of my emotions flow right out of me. I let the sadness and regret come out in my tears, the anger and hatred come out with the punches I took to the wall. Then I was quiet; I hadn't cried like that for a long time. I looked around and saw how destroyed my room was. I got up from my bed and walked around trying to decided whether or not to go back out with my friends or stay and clean this mess up. It may have taken a while, but I decided to stay in my room and clean. I first went over to pick up the bench from my desk, when all of the sudden, I felt this searing pain in my wrist. I looked down and saw that my hand and wrist were bleeding and swelled up. I guess punching a wall hasn't been one of my most smartest ideas. I tried to clean up of few other things around my room when I just gave up. Blood was starting to get onto the floor and my wrist looked terrible. I walked over to the door and opened it slowly, and I walked out only to find nobody there. I started to panic when I heard a very familiar voice coming from outside. Tails I thought. I ran over to the window and saw all my buddies outside in the newly fallen snow. I laughed at this and went over to the first aid kit,and started to clean up my hurt wrist. Gosh it hurt. I had to bite down on my lip to stop screams from coming out of my mouth. Turned out that I had a very deep cut and and a wrist that was at a sicking angle. I decided to just wrap the whole this up with a bandage and call it good. Then, I slowly walked outside to join the others. They all stopped dead in their tracks and turned to see me standing at the door with my coat and scarf on. I couldn't believe the next thing that I said, "Well, looks like you're coming to meet my family. Get your coats and stuff on and lets go!"
